Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flexible wheels of harmonic reducers, and specifically relates to a processing tooling for flexible wheels of harmonic reducers. Background Technique
[0002] A harmonic reducer is a high-precision mechanical transmission device mainly used to reduce speed and increase torque. Its working principle is based on the harmonic effect. Through the action of a harmonic generator and a flexible gear, the rotational speed and torque of the input shaft are transmitted to the output shaft through elastic deformation, thereby achieving the effect of speed reduction and torque increase. A harmonic reducer mainly consists of a fixed internal gear rigid wheel, a flexible wheel, and a wave generator. Tooling is an important device for clamping, positioning, and guiding workpieces during the processing process, and plays a crucial role in ensuring processing accuracy and product quality. Tooling is required for the processing of flexible wheels of harmonic reducers.
[0003] Common processing tooling for flexible wheels of harmonic reducers usually consists of mechanisms such as a mandrel, an expansion sleeve, a fastening mechanism, and other auxiliary components. The mandrel is the core component in the tooling, used to support and position the flexible wheel. The expansion sleeve is the key deformation component in the tooling, which clamps the flexible wheel through elastic deformation. Other fastening devices are used to fix the expansion sleeve on the mandrel, and other auxiliary components ensure the correct positioning and stable clamping of the flexible wheel in the tooling.
[0004] For traditional processing tooling for flexible wheels of harmonic reducers, the flexible wheel needs to be placed on the tooling first, and then the tooling is fixed at the corresponding position of the tooling. At the same time, due to the reduced automation level, it is not convenient to operate the flexible wheel for processing. To solve the above problems, some processing tooling for flexible wheels of harmonic reducers use a robotic arm to operate the flexible wheel. Due to the flexible joint design of the robotic arm, it can achieve multi-degree-of-freedom movement and can adapt to flexible wheels of different shapes and positions for operation, thereby improving the automation level of the processing tooling. However, in this way, due to the limited applicable range of the robotic arm, and at the same time, for complex or dynamically changing working environments, the adaptability and flexibility of the robotic arm are limited, resulting in weak adaptability of the robotic arm to the environment. This will not only reduce the quality of flexible wheel processing but also reduce production stability. Therefore, a processing tooling for flexible wheels of harmonic reducers is proposed.
