Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle parts processing, in particular to a processing tool for a column type power steering elastic fork. Background Art
[0002] The elastic shift fork for top turning of the outer circle is used for the top turning of an integrated worm gear, and a tooling for driving the worm gear to rotate is required. However, the existing fork processing tooling has a simple structure, and the fork is fixed. When the end faces of the two claws of the fork coincide with the end faces of the four claws of the part, the worm gear cannot be driven to rotate. With the development of technology, in order to achieve automation, a robot is required to load and unload parts during part processing. However, the robot cannot accurately avoid the overlap of the end faces of the four claws of the part when working, so the processing effect is poor and cannot be overcome. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide a column-type power steering elastic fork processing tooling with a simple structure and easy operation. By improving the elastic fork, the end faces of the two claws of the tooling can be made to coincide with the parts, and the elastic fork automatically pops out to continue to rotate the parts after the parts are cut and subjected to force during processing, which can effectively solve the problems in the background technology.
[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a column-type power steering elastic fork processing tool, comprising a mounting handle, one end of the mounting handle is provided with a support connecting plate, one end of the mounting handle is provided with a step-shaped groove, and a workpiece top column is fixed to the inner center of the groove, sliding members are evenly arranged on the support connecting plate, and a fork assembly is connected between one ends of the sliding members, a through hole corresponding to the workpiece top column is provided in the center of the fork assembly, a spring is provided on one side of the fork assembly, the end of the spring away from the connection with the fork assembly is located at the groove step of the step-shaped groove of the mounting handle, and two screws for locking one end of the spring are provided on the mounting handle.
[0005] Furthermore, the end of the workpiece top column away from the connection with the mounting handle is a conical structure.
[0006] Furthermore, the fork assembly includes a connecting plate fixed to the sliding member, and the connecting plate is evenly provided with forks on a side opposite to the supporting connecting plate.
[0007] Furthermore, the sliding member includes a sliding column, one end of which is fixed to the fork assembly, the supporting connecting plate is provided with a sliding through hole corresponding to the sliding column, and the other end of the sliding column passes through the sliding through hole of the supporting connecting plate and is fixed with a connector.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: Firstly, the tooling can be installed on the chuck through the installation handle, and the tooling is driven to rotate by an external driving device. When the fork clamping part on the part coincides with the fork, the part pushes the fork assembly, thereby compressing the spring. The sliding part slides along the support connection plate, and the part is tightened by the workpiece ejector pin. When the tooling rotates, rotation occurs between the part and the tooling, and the fork on the fork assembly is clamped into the groove of the part. During clamping, the fork assembly can be pushed by the spring, thereby realizing automatic loading and unloading of the part by the manipulator. This pipe column type power steering gear elastic fork processing tooling has a simple structure and is easy to operate. By improving the elastic fork, when the end faces of the two claws of the tooling coincide with the part, the elastic fork automatically pops out to continue turning the part after the part is stressed during machining.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0014] Please refer to Figures 1-3, the present utility model provides a technical solution: a processing tooling for an elastic fork of a tubular power steering gear, including an installation handle 1. One end of the installation handle 1 is provided with a support connection disk 2. One end of the installation handle 1 is provided with a stepped groove, and a workpiece jacking post 3 is fixedly arranged at the center inside the groove. Sliding members 4 are evenly arranged on the support connection disk 2. A fork assembly 5 is connected between one ends of the sliding members 4. A through hole corresponding to the workpiece jacking post 3 is arranged at the center of the fork assembly 5. A spring 6 is arranged on one side of the fork assembly 5. The end of the spring 6 far from the connection with the fork assembly 5 is located at the groove step of the stepped groove of the installation handle 1. And two screws 7 for locking one end of the spring 6 are arranged on the installation handle 1. The end of the workpiece jacking post 3 far from the connection with the installation handle 1 is of a conical structure. The fork assembly 5 includes a connecting plate 51 fixed to the sliding member 4. Forks 52 are evenly arranged on the side of the connecting plate 51 opposite to the support connection disk 2. The sliding member 4 includes a sliding column 41. One end of the sliding column 41 is fixed to the fork assembly 5. A sliding connection through hole corresponding to the sliding column 41 is arranged on the support connection disk 2.

First, the tooling can be installed on the chuck through the installation handle 1, and the tooling is driven to rotate by an external driving device. When the fork clamping part on the part coincides with the fork 52, the part jacks the fork assembly 5, so that the spring 6 is compressed, the sliding member 4 slides along the support connection disk 2, and the workpiece is jacked tightly by the workpiece jacking post 3. When the tooling rotates, rotation occurs between the part and the tooling, so that the fork 52 on the fork assembly 5 is clamped into the groove inside the part. During clamping, the fork assembly 5 can be jacked by the spring 6, so that automatic loading and unloading of the part by the manipulator can be realized. This processing tooling for the elastic fork of the tubular power steering gear has a simple structure and is easy to operate. By improving the elastic fork, when the end faces of the two claws of the tooling coincide with the part, during processing, after the part is cut and stressed, the elastic fork automatically pops out to continue to turn the part.
[0015] During use: First, the tooling can be installed on the chuck through the installation handle 1, and the tooling is driven to rotate by an external driving device.

When the tooling rotates, rotation occurs between the part and the tooling, so that the fork 52 on the fork assembly 5 is clamped into the groove inside the part. During clamping, the fork assembly 5 can be jacked by the spring 6, so that automatic loading and unloading of the part by the manipulator can be realized.
