Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of centering, in particular to a centering device for the processing of ring forgings. Background Technique

[0002] A forging is an object made of metal that is shaped and given an appropriate compressive force through plastic deformation by applying an external force. This external force is usually achieved by using tools such as a hammer or a press. During the forging process, the metal undergoes complex deformation and recrystallization processes, forming a more uniform and refined grain structure. This structure significantly improves the physical properties of the metal, such as enhancing strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Currently, in the manufacturing process of ring forgings, the centering stage is one of the important stages.

[0003] During the forging process, workers usually use the method of manual scribing and centering to determine the shape and size of the forging. Although this method can ensure accuracy to a certain extent, it is very time-consuming.

The rotation angle of the rotating shaft 20 is displayed through the display screen 4, and then the equipment can be controlled through the button 5. A clamping mechanism 7 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the base 1. The annular forging can be fixed through the clamping mechanism 7. A limiting groove 9 is opened on one side of the base 1. A screw rod 10 is fixedly connected in the limiting groove 9. The clamping mechanism 7 includes a support plate 11. One end of the support plate 11 is fixedly connected to a motor 12. The output end of the motor 12 is fixedly connected to the screw rod 10. One end of the screw rod 10 is fixedly connected to a limiting block 13. One end of the limiting block 13 is fixedly connected to a clamping plate 14. By starting the motor 12, the motor 12 drives the screw rod 10 to rotate. The thread on the screw rod 10 is a positive and negative thread. Due to the cooperation between the limiting block 13 and the limiting groove 9, the limiting block 13 moves, so that the distance between the clamping plates 14 can be adjusted. The midpoint of the distance between the clamping plates 14 is the center of the annular forging, and then centering treatment is carried out, avoiding the error generated by manual centering of employees, so that the centering effect meets the standard.
