Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tool coating fixtures, and particularly relates to a three-dimensional fixture for drill tip coating. Background Art

[0002] Coating technology is widely used in the manufacture of drill bits. It can endow drill bits with multiple properties such as hardness, rapid penetration, and thermal stability, making drill bits more effective during the machining process. Currently, for the coating operation of the drill tip part, a two-dimensional fixture is generally used for clamping. The drill tip workpiece is attached to the surface of the two-dimensional fixture by hanging or magnetic attraction, and then placed in a coating furnace for coating operation. The two-dimensional fixture can increase the number of workpieces loaded into the furnace. However, the drill tip coating obtained through two-dimensional clamping operation is prone to coating micro-peeling. This is because the surface of the drill tip is not a flat surface but an uneven structure. During the coating operation, the drill tip and the two-dimensional fixture are relatively stationary, the coating is not uniform enough, and there is an easy problem of a large coating thickness difference between the top surface and the chip flutes of the drill tip. When the surface coating is uneven in thickness, micro-peeling is likely to occur, resulting in poor coating quality and significant economic losses. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] In view of the above problems and technical requirements, the utility model provides a three-dimensional fixture for drill tip coating. This fixture can perform three-dimensional clamping on the drill tip workpiece, enabling the drill tip workpiece to rotate around the furnace center and also rotate self-revolvingly during the coating operation in the coating furnace, with a uniform coating thickness on the surface of the drill tip and no peeling occurring.

[0004] The technical solution of the utility model is as follows: A three-dimensional fixture for drill tip coating includes a turntable, a sleeve, and a fixture assembly. A circle of clamping holes is provided on the turntable, and a sleeve is correspondingly installed in each clamping hole. The sleeve can rotate self-revolvingly relative to the turntable. The top of the sleeve is open, and the fixture assembly can be correspondingly inserted into the sleeve. The top of the fixture assembly clamps a drill tip workpiece. The turntable drives the sleeve and the fixture assembly to rotate around the center of the turntable, and the sleeve drives the fixture assembly and the drill tip workpiece to rotate around the central axis of the sleeve; the fixture assembly includes a support rod, a top column, and a gasket. The support rod is a cylindrical structure, a top column is provided at the center of the top of the support rod, a circular hole is provided at the center of the gasket, the gasket is sleeved outside the top column, and a blind hole corresponding to the top column is provided at the core of the bottom surface of the drill tip workpiece to be clamped. The blind hole is inserted on the top column, and the bottom surface of the drill tip workpiece is closely attached to the surface of the gasket. In the above solution, the turntable and the sleeve are used to clamp the fixture assembly, and the drill tip workpiece is clamped on the top of the fixture assembly. The turntable drives the sleeve to revolve, and the sleeve drives the fixture assembly and the drill tip workpiece to rotate self-revolvingly. In this way, the drill tip workpiece that rotates in two dimensions can obtain a more uniform coating effect, avoiding a large thickness difference between the surface and the chip flutes, having good coating quality, and being able to avoid the occurrence of peeling after the coating cools.

[0005] Further, the support rod and the top column are integrally formed. Chamfers are provided at the edges of the bottom end surface and the top end surface of the support rod, a chamfer is provided between the bottom of the top column and the top end surface of the support rod, and a chamfer is also provided at the edge of the top surface of the top column. The chamfers protect both the top column and the support rod, can reduce the damage during clamping, and extend the service life.

[0006] Further, the diameter of the support rod is 8 mm, and the diameter of the top column is 2 mm.

[0007] Further, the diameter of the gasket is 20 mm, and the diameter of the circular hole in the center of the gasket is 4 mm.

[0008] Further, the length of the support rod is greater than the accommodation height of the sleeve.

[0009] Further, the bottom of the sleeve is provided with positioning serrations.

[0010] Further, the turntable includes multiple disks fixedly connected. The clamping holes on each disk correspond one by one. The sleeve vertically penetrates into multiple clamping holes, and the sleeve remains in a vertical state.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: 1) A cylindrical support rod is used as a fixture. The top column at the top of the support rod can clamp the drill tip workpiece, and the support rod body can cooperate with a general sleeve for clamping. Without the need to additionally set a rotating mechanism, this fixture assembly can cooperate with a general turntable fixture for placing rod-shaped tools to coat the drill tip workpiece. The drill tip workpiece can rotate both around its own axis and around the axis of the turntable during the coating process, resulting in uniform coating, effectively reducing the coating thickness difference between the top surface and the chip flutes of the drill tip, and improving the coating quality; 2) The gasket not only has a better supporting effect on the drill tip workpiece, but also can block the bottom surface of the drill tip, preventing the bottom surface of the drill tip from being coated during the coating process, and protecting the bottom surface of the drill tip.
