Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical processing, in particular to a processing and positioning tool for curved surface parts. Background Art
[0002] At present, with the rapid development of the automobile industry, the requirements for the performance and stability of materials used in automobile parts are getting higher and higher. Since automobile parts are produced in large quantities and on a large scale through intelligent means, in order to ensure their quality, appearance and safety, safe, reliable and scientific processing methods have become conventional requirements. There are more and more curved parts, and the clamping and positioning of curved parts are relatively complex and difficult compared to conventional parts. How to quickly solve the tooling problem of processing curved parts on the production line has been put on the agenda. There are not only metal parts processing, but also more plastic parts. There are more and more curved parts that need to remove the flash of the gate. The general tooling of the curved parts production line (such as flat-mouth vises, three-jaw chucks, etc.) often cannot solve the problem. On-site technicians are needed to quickly solve the tooling design, application and technical problems of such parts. Therefore, the application of tooling for processing and positioning of curved parts has become a problem that must be solved in this field.
[0003] There are a large number of plastic parts in the automotive industry. In order to meet the texture and aesthetics of the appearance, the surfaces of many parts are designed into various curved surfaces. Injection molded products have gates, flash and burrs just produced by the injection molding machine, and these need to be removed manually. Therefore, removing gates, flash and burrs has become an indispensable processing step for injection molded products. However, how to quickly and effectively achieve the removal effect requires the technicians of the production line to select the most appropriate method according to the shape characteristics of the parts. Some of the gates and flash burrs of some parts are relatively strong and cannot be removed manually, so they need to be removed by mechanical processing equipment. In addition, if you encounter curved parts that cannot be directly positioned and pressed on the equipment for processing, you need to solve the design problem of curved parts processing positioning tooling. Since the clamping and positioning reference of curved parts is not a plane, if the tooling design is not appropriate, it is very easy for parts to vibrate and move during the processing, resulting in a large number of scraps in the process of removing flash, gates and burrs of parts. The last process will cause the parts to be scrapped, which will not only lead to a serious increase in costs, but also affect the final delivery process of customers. Therefore, how to reduce scrap in the process of removing gates, flash and burrs is the most important issue to ensure the quality of the final product and reduce economic losses.
[0004] In order to reduce the failure rate of curved injection molded parts in the process of removing flash, gates and burrs, it is necessary to make special positioning tooling and complete the processing of this process on a CNC machine tool to avoid various unstable factors caused by manual operation. The whole process is fully mechanized and solidified. The parts held by people are replaced with positioning tooling to clamp them and make the process procedural.
[0005] Through the above analysis, the problems and defects of the prior art are as follows: in the process of removing the flash gate burrs of curved injection molded parts, since the gate burrs are relatively thick and solid, manual removal is basically impossible to achieve, and automated equipment is required to improve efficiency and quality; however, when removing them on CNC equipment, the commonly used general tooling (flat vise, three-jaw) cannot be applied in the field of curved part processing, and special tooling must be designed according to the product characteristics.

[0008] Furthermore, a tool setting hole and a plurality of fixing holes are also provided on the upper surface of the tool body. The tool setting hole is a blind hole, and the plurality of fixing holes are through holes.
[0009] Furthermore, the inner diameter machining accuracy of the tool hole is within 0.02, and the roughness reaches 1.6.
[0010] Furthermore, the number of the plurality of fixing holes is four.
