DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0025] See also Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the utility model provides an automatic straightening machine for shaft workpieces, comprising a base 1, a top plate 2 is fixedly installed above the base 1, a screw slide 3 is horizontally arranged below the top plate 2, a sliding plate 4 is installed at the working end of the screw slide 3, a straightening device 5 is installed on the sliding plate 4, a supporting assembly 6 is installed on the base 1, the supporting assembly 6 includes a movable supporting seat 62 for supporting the shaft workpiece, a circular runout monitoring mechanism 8 is installed on one side of the movable supporting seat 62, and a rotating assembly 7 for rotating the shaft workpiece is installed on one side of the base 1.

[0026] By placing the shaft workpiece on the support assembly 6 and adjusting the position of the movable support seat 62 according to the length of the shaft workpiece, the circular runout monitoring mechanism 8 is synchronously driven to adjust the position of the movable support seat 62, and the shaft workpiece is driven to rotate through the rotating assembly 7, and monitored by the circular runout monitoring mechanism 8. When the shaft workpiece is bent, the circular runout of the shaft workpiece will deviate. When the circular runout exceeds the set estimated value, the circular runout monitoring mechanism 8 will transmit a signal to the straightening device 5, and the screw slide 3 will drive the straightening device 5 to move to a suitable position to straighten it.

[0027] See also Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the support assembly 6 includes a fixed support seat 61, a first slider 63 and a slide groove 64; the fixed support seat 61 is installed on the base 1; the slide groove 64 is opened on the fixed support seat 61; the first slider 63 is slidably connected in the slide groove 64, the movable support seat 62 is installed on the first slider 63, and locking mechanisms are installed on both sides of the movable support seat 62.

[0028] By placing the shaft workpiece on the fixed support seat 61 and the movable support seat 62, and by moving the movable support seat 62, the movable support seat 62 will move on the slide groove 64 through the first slider 63 below until the movable support seat 62 moves to a suitable position, while driving the circular runout monitoring mechanism 8 to move, and fixing the position of the movable support seat 62 through the locking mechanism to prevent displacement and affect the monitoring accuracy of the circular runout monitoring mechanism 8, so that it can adapt to shaft workpieces of different lengths, and adjust the position of the circular runout monitoring mechanism 8 according to the length of the shaft workpiece to prevent the monitored circular runout data from being inaccurate and affecting the quality of the shaft workpiece.

[0029] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the locking mechanism includes an extension block 65, a cavity 66, a fixed rod 67, a limit plate 68, a first spring 69 and a pull block 610; the extension block 65 is installed on both sides of the movable support seat 62, and the cavity 66 is arranged in the extension block 65; the fixed rod 67 is movably connected in the cavity 66, and one end of the fixed rod 67 is provided with an abutting portion that can abut against the base 1; the limit plate 68 is installed on the fixed rod 67, and the limit plate 68 abuts against the side wall of the cavity 66; the first spring 69 is sleeved on the fixed rod 67, one end of the first spring 69 abuts against the limit plate 68, and the other end of the first spring 69 abuts against the inner wall of the cavity 66; the pull block 610 is installed at the other end of the fixed rod 67.

[0030] When the position of the movable support seat 62 needs to be adjusted, the pull block 610 is pulled, and the pull block 610 drives the fixed rod 67 to move, and the movement of the fixed rod 67 drives the limit plate 68 to move and squeeze the first spring 69, so that the abutment portion of the fixed rod 67 is no longer abutted on the base 1. At this time, the movable support seat 62 can be moved. When the movable support seat 62 moves to a suitable position, the pull block 610 is released, and the elastic deformation is restored by the first spring 69 to drive the abutment portion to abut on the base 1, so that the movable support seat 62 cannot move to prevent displacement.

[0031] See also Figure 4 As shown, the base 1 is provided with a plug hole 611 which can be plugged into and matched with the abutting portion.

[0032] The abutting portion at one end of the fixing rod 67 is inserted into the insertion hole 611 provided on the base 1 , thereby fixing the movable support seat 62 , so that the movable support seat 62 is stably fixed.

When the shaft workpiece is straightened, the pressure generated during the straightening is shared by the two groups of auxiliary support plates 612 to prevent excessive force from causing damage to the fixed support seat 61 and the movable support seat 62, thereby extending the service life.

[0035] See also Figure 3 As shown, a mounting seat 41 is installed on one side of the top plate 2 located on one side of the screw slide 3 , a sliding rod 42 is arranged in the mounting seat 41 , and the sliding rod 42 is slidably connected to the sliding plate 4 .

[0036] When the push-up device 5 is driven to move by the screw slide 3, the sliding plate 4 slides on the sliding rod 42 in the mounting seat 41, thereby increasing the stability of the movement.

[0038] By inserting one end of the shaft workpiece into the rotating cylinder 75, fixing the rotating cylinder 75 through a clamping mechanism, and starting the motor 74, the motor 74 drives the rotating cylinder 75 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating cylinder 75 drives the shaft workpiece to rotate, and through the setting of the linear drive 73, when it is necessary to adjust the height of the rotating cylinder 75, the linear drive 73 is started, and the linear drive 73 can be a cylinder, and the linear drive 73 pushes the extension plate 72 to slide in the fixed seat 71 and extend.

[0039] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the clamping mechanism includes a connecting rod 76, a clamping plate 77, a second spring 78 and a pulling plate 79; the connecting rod 76 is movably connected in the rotating cylinder 75; the clamping plate 77 is installed at one end of the connecting rod 76; the second spring 78 is sleeved on the connecting rod 76, one end of the second spring 78 abuts against the clamping plate 77, and the other end of the second spring 78 abuts against the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 75; the pulling plate 79 is installed at the other end of the connecting rod 76.

[0040] By pulling the pull plate 79, the pull plate 79 drives the connecting rod 76 to move, and the connecting rod 76 drives the clamping plate 77 to move and squeeze the second spring 78. At this time, one end of the shaft workpiece is inserted into the rotating cylinder 75. By loosening the pull plate 79, the second spring 78 restores its elastic deformation and drives the clamping plate 77 to fix the shaft workpiece on all sides, thereby facilitating the subsequent rotation of the shaft workpiece.
