[0017] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of this application.
[0018] As Figures 1-3 shown, a detachable gantry bracket tooling includes a fixed support 1 and a sheet gantry 2. The sheet gantry 2 includes a buckle part 21. At both ends of the buckle part 21, there is a connecting part 22 each. An arc-shaped component 3 is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting part 22 close to the buckle part 21. The buckle part 21 is a minor arc structure. The two arc-shaped components 3 can be rotated to be in an open state (please refer to Figure 2 ) or a closed state (please refer to Figure 1 ). When the arc-shaped component 3 is in the closed state, the center of the arc of the arc-shaped component 3 coincides with the center of the minor arc of the buckle part 21. This detachable gantry bracket tooling can not only limit the position of the flange at the rear end of the engine, but also rotate the arc-shaped component 3 to open a diameter suitable for the outer diameter of the flange at the rear end of the engine, so that the flange can be sleeved inside the gantry bracket tooling, and can meet the installation requirements of different flange sizes.
[0019] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1 , the arc-shaped component 3 is connected to the connecting part 22 through a hinge shaft 4. The arc-shaped component 3 and the connecting part 22 can also be rotatably connected through other components such as bolts.
[0020] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1 , the buckle part 21 and the connecting part 22 are integrally formed. A number of bolt holes are provided on the buckle part 21 and the two arc-shaped components 3 for connecting to the housing (not shown in the figure) at the rear end of the engine, and at the same time, the arc-shaped components 3 can be fixed. After adjusting the angle of the arc-shaped component 3 according to the outer diameter of the flange at the rear end of the engine, the arc-shaped component 3 is fixedly installed on the housing at the rear end of the engine in the adjusted state. Without separately providing a buckle component for the arc-shaped component 3, the buckle part 21 can provide fixed support for the flange at the rear end of the engine, and the arc-shaped component 3 maintains the adjusted angle to play a tightening role on the flange at the rear end of the engine.
[0021] As a further improvement, please refer to Figure 1 , the connecting part 22 of the plate-type gantry 2 is detachably connected to the side plate of the fixed support 1 by bolts. If the plate-type gantry 2 or the fixed support 1 is damaged, only the faulty component needs to be replaced, rather than the entire tooling, which can facilitate the replacement and maintenance of the gantry support tooling.
[0022] Specific implementation process: During use, the fixed support 1 is fixed on the iron floor by bolts. By rotating the two arc-shaped components 3 to open to a diameter suitable for the flange at the rear end of the engine, then the flange at the rear end of the engine is sleeved inside the gantry support tooling. The bolt holes on the buckle part 21 and the two arc-shaped components 3 are aligned with the bolt holes of the housing at the rear end of the engine, and the housing at the rear end of the engine is fixed on the gantry support tooling by bolts. Then, the flange at the rear end of the engine is connected to the transmission flange of the test bench to conduct the test bench test of the engine.
