Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a key pulling device with adjustable keyway depth, including a pulling machine 1, a touch screen 2, a controller, a linear displacement sensor 3, a workpiece detection sensor 4 and a proximity switch 5.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, the broaching machine 1 includes a workpiece clamping device 10, a broach 11, a first oil cylinder 12 and a second oil cylinder.

[0026] The work clamping device 10 and the broach 11 are installed in the processing area of ​​the machine tool, the workpiece is clamped by the work clamping device 10, and the keyway is processed on the surface of the workpiece by the broach 11. The work clamping device 10 is connected to the second oil cylinder, and the second oil cylinder drives the work clamping device 10 to move.

[0027] One end of the broach 11 is connected to the first oil cylinder 12, and the first oil cylinder 12 drives the broach 11 to move. The installation direction of the broach 11 is the extension direction of the keyway, and the broach 11 is located below the surface of the workpiece to be processed. Before processing, there is a certain distance between the highest point of the broach 11 and the workpiece; when processing starts, the starting position of the broach 11 contacts the workpiece. The distance between the starting position of the broach 11 and the highest point of the broach 11 is the stroke of the broach 11. Among them, p is the pitch of the broach 11, a f is the tooth lift of broach 11, and t is the keyway depth.

[0028] The first oil cylinder 12 includes an oil cylinder body 120, a first support plate 121 and a second support plate 122. One end of the output end of the oil cylinder body 120 is fixedly connected to the first support plate 121, and the other end is fixedly connected to the second support plate 122 and connected to one end of the broach 11 through the second support plate 122; the linear displacement sensor 3 is installed on the first support plate 121 and the second support plate 122. The first oil cylinder 12 is electrically connected to the controller and receives signals from the controller, and the controller controls the start and stop of the first oil cylinder 12.

[0029] The second oil cylinder is also electrically connected to the controller and receives signals from the controller, and the controller controls the start and stop of the second oil cylinder.

[0030] The touch screen 2 is electrically connected to the controller and transmits signals to the controller. The transmitted signals include depth data of the key slot to be processed.

[0031] The linear displacement sensor 3 is electrically connected to the controller and transmits the actual movement distance of the broach 11 to the controller.

[0032] The touch screen 2 is installed at one end of the machine tool to facilitate the operator to operate.

[0033] The workpiece detection sensor 4 is installed on one side of the workpiece to detect whether there is a workpiece in the processing area of ​​the machine tool.

[0036] The workpiece is mounted on the workpiece clamping device 10, and the workpiece clamping device 10 clamps the workpiece; the keyway depth is input on the touch screen 2, and the specifications of the broach 11 are preset in the controller; the controller calculates the stroke of the broach 11 according to the keyway depth to be processed and the specifications of the broach 11, and the stroke of the broach 11 determines the movement distance that the broach 11 needs to move when the starting position of the processing on the broach 11 is aligned with the workpiece; the controller controls the first oil cylinder 12 to drive the broach 11 to start moving, and the linear displacement sensor 3 detects the actual distance of the movement of the broach 11 and feeds it back to the controller. When the actual distance is equal to the calculated movement distance, When the workpiece is released, the first oil cylinder 12 stops moving; the second oil cylinder drives the workpiece clamping device 10 to loosen, and the workpiece falls due to gravity and contacts the broach 11. At the same time, the workpiece clamping device 10 touches the proximity switch 5 after being released, and the proximity switch 5 sends a signal, and the second oil cylinder drives the workpiece clamping device 10 to clamp the workpiece that has contacted the broach 11; the first oil cylinder 12 drives the broach 11 to start working and perform keyway processing; after the processing is completed, the broach 11 continues to move until there is a certain distance between it and the workpiece, forming a workpiece disassembly gap, which is convenient for disassembly of the workpiece after processing is completed; the broach 11 is reset after the workpiece is disassembled.

[0037] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of various equivalent modifications or replacements within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, and these modifications or replacements should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
