DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Example:

[0024] Reference Figure 1 The utility model discloses a fine boring fixture for large and small head holes of an engine connecting rod, comprising a fixture body 1, on which a fixed template 11 and a movable template 12 are arranged. The movable template 12 is slidably connected with the fixture body 1 through a guide key. A small head support block 13 is arranged on the fixed template 11, and a large head pad is arranged on the movable template 12. The height of the small head support block 13 is the same as that of the large head pad.

[0025] A mandrel oil cylinder 2 is provided on one side of the clamp body 1 away from the fixed template 11. A small head hole positioning mandrel 21 is provided on the output end of the mandrel oil cylinder 2, and the small head hole positioning mandrel 21 passes through the clamp body 1 and the small head support block 13. When in use, the small head hole positioning shaft passes through the small head hole of the connecting rod to position the connecting rod.

[0026] Since the height of the small head support block 13 is the same as the height of the large head pad, one side of the connecting rod is in contact with one side of the small head support block 13 and one side of the large head pad height. Ensure that the surface of one side of the connecting rod is parallel to the surface of one side of the clamp body 1.

[0027] For connecting rods with different center distances, the distance between the large head pad and the small head support block 13 is adjusted by moving the movable template 12, so that the clamp can adapt to connecting rods with different center distances, thereby expanding the application range of the clamp.

[0028] The fixed template 11 is provided with a first positioning assembly 3, which fixes the position of the small end of the connecting rod. The first positioning assembly 3 includes two small end side supporting cylinders 31 and a small end clamping cylinder 32, and the two small end side supporting cylinders 31 and the small end clamping cylinder 32 are both provided on the fixed template 11. The small end clamping cylinder 32 is rotatable. When placing or taking the connecting rod, the small end clamping cylinder 32 not only does not fit the surface of the connecting rod, but also the small end clamping cylinder 32 rotates a certain angle, which is convenient for the operator to take or place the connecting rod.

[0029] The second positioning assembly 4 includes two large head supporting cylinders 41 and two large head pressing cylinders 42, and the two large head supporting cylinders 41 and the two large head pressing cylinders 42 are both arranged on the movable template 12. Both large head pressing cylinders 42 are rotatable and do not affect the operator to place or take the connecting rod.

[0030] The two small-head side supporting cylinders 31 , the small-head pressing cylinder 32 , the two large-head supporting cylinders 41 and the two large-head pressing cylinders 42 are all connected to the hydraulic station through oil pipes.

[0031] A big head side positioning block 43 is arranged above the big head pressing oil cylinder 42 just under the big head pad. When the connecting rod is placed on the fixture, due to factors such as the connecting rod's own gravity, the big head end of the connecting rod contacts the big head side positioning block 43, thereby further determining the placement position of the connecting rod on the fixture.

[0032] It is especially noted that during use, the fixture is placed in the state of Figure 2 As shown, the clamp body 1 is placed vertically.

[0033] The implementation principle of the above embodiment is:

[0034] In actual use, the operator moves the movable template 12 in advance according to the center distance of the processed connecting rod, thereby changing the center distance between the small head support block 13 and the large head support block 14.

[0035] During the placement of the connecting rod, the operator inserts the small end hole of the connecting rod into the small end positioning core shaft 21, and the large end of the connecting rod naturally contacts the large end side positioning block 43 downward, thereby preliminarily determining the position of the connecting rod.

[0036] Each cylinder of the fixture is connected to the hydraulic station with a high-pressure oil pipe, and the hydraulic station control system controls the movement of each cylinder according to program requirements.

[0037] In the next step, the operator starts the clamping procedure, and the hydraulic system automatically clamps the big and small ends of the connecting rod in a front-to-back order, and the side support cylinders at the big and small ends support the outer edges of the big and small ends in place.

[0038] When the large and small end clamping cylinders and the side support cylinder positions are in place, the hydraulic system automatically retracts the positioning mandrel 21 according to the program, and the machine tool enters the processing program.

[0039] When the connecting rod processing is completed, the hydraulic system automatically releases the side support cylinder and the clamping cylinder, and the small head spindle automatically rises for subsequent loading and positioning, and the cycle continues.

[0040] It is particularly noted that during the pressing and supporting process, the surface of the connecting rod will not be damaged while ensuring that the position of the connecting rod is firmly fixed.

[0041] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the utility model, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
