The gland 2 comprises a first positioning hole 21, a pressing cover 22 and a positioning shaft 23. A conical first positioning hole 21 is provided on the top end face of the pressing cover 22, and the first center point 1 of the hobber abuts against the conical vertex of the first positioning hole 21. A positioning shaft 23 is provided at the bottom of the pressing cover 22, and the positioning shaft 23 is inserted into the top inner hole of the hollow gear shaft 3. The pressing cover 22 presses against the top of the hollow gear shaft 3 to fix the hollow gear shaft 3.

A bearing block 42 is provided at the middle position of the cylinder 44. A positioning spline 41 is provided on the outer side of the top of the cylinder 44. The machining accuracy of the positioning spline 41 is higher than that of the spline of the hollow gear shaft 2. The upper part of the cylinder 44 is inserted into the tail inner hole of the hollow gear shaft 3. The positioning spline 41 cooperates with the inner spline at the tail of the hollow gear shaft 3 to restrict the rotation of the hollow gear shaft 3. The bottom of the hollow gear shaft 3 is placed on the bearing block 42. A conical second positioning hole 43 is provided on the bottom end face of the cylinder 44, and the second center point 5 on the base 6 of the hobber abuts against the conical vertex of the second positioning hole 43 to position the tooling.
[0022] A plurality of radially distributed protrusions are provided outside the second center point 5 on the base 6, and the fixed seat 4 contacts the protrusions on the base 6 to increase the friction force.
[0023] Preferably, both the first positioning hole 21 and the second positioning hole 43 are conical holes, which respectively match the first center point 1 and the second center point 5.
[0024] Preferably, the diameter of the pressing cover 22 is larger than the inner hole diameter of the hollow gear shaft 3, and the pressing cover 22 presses against the top of the hollow gear shaft 3.
[0025] Preferably, the centers of the first positioning hole 21 and the second positioning hole 43 coincide with the center line of the hollow gear shaft 3 and are always located on the center line connecting the first center point 1 and the second center point 5.
[0026] Preferably, the bearing block 42 is a frustum of a cone, which is provided at the middle position of the cylinder 44, and the diameter of the bearing block 42 is larger than the outer diameter of the tail of the hollow gear shaft 3.
[0027] Preferably, after the gland 2, the hollow gear shaft 3 and the fixed seat 4 are mutually engaged, the three are combined into a cylindrical body with the same center line.
[0028] In this embodiment, the first positioning hole 21 is a conical hole located at the center of the top of the pressing cover 22. A positioning shaft 23 is provided at the bottom of the pressing cover 22. The first positioning hole 21, the pressing cover 22, and the positioning shaft 23 are all concentric. The diameter of the pressing cover 22 is larger than that of the positioning shaft 23, and at the same time, the diameter of the pressing cover 22 is larger than the inner hole diameter at the top of the hollow gear shaft 3. The diameter of the positioning shaft 23 matches the inner hole diameter of the hollow gear shaft 3.
[0029] The positioning spline 41 matches the internal spline at the tail of the hollow gear shaft 3. The diameter of the bearing block 42 is larger than the outer diameter at the tail of the hollow gear shaft 3. A plurality of radially distributed protrusions are provided on the outside of the second center point 5 on the base 6, and the protrusions are in contact with the bottom surface of the fixed seat 4 to increase the friction force. The second positioning hole 43 is a conical hole and is concentric with the bottom surface of the column 44.
[0030] The specific use process of this utility model is as follows:
[0031] During the fixing operation, the positioning shaft 23 on the pressing cover 2 is inserted into the inner hole at the top of the hollow gear shaft 3, and the pressing cover 22 covers the top of the hollow gear shaft 3. The upper part of the column 44 is inserted into the inner hole at the tail of the hollow gear shaft 3, and the positioning spline 41 cooperates with the internal spline at the tail of the hollow gear shaft 3 to limit the rotation of the hollow gear shaft 3. The hollow gear shaft 3 is placed entirely on the bearing block 42. During the positioning operation, the first center point 1 abuts against the conical vertex of the first positioning hole 21, and the second center point 5 abuts against the conical vertex of the positioning hole 43. The center line of the hollow gear shaft 3 is always located on the line connecting the tips of the first center point 1 and the second center point 5. The first center point 1 is clamped by the clamping arm of the hobbing machine and moves downward. The pressing cover 22 presses the hollow gear shaft 3, and the hollow gear shaft 3 presses the bearing block 42. The fixed seat 4 squeezes the second center point 5, causing the second center point 5 to shrink downward. The protrusions on the base 6 are in contact with the bottom surface of the fixed seat 4, and the multiple protrusions on the base 6 increase the friction force between the fixed seat 4 and the base 6. When the first center point 1 presses downward, the center line of the hollow gear shaft 3 is always located on the line connecting the tips of the first center point 1 and the second center point 5. When the fixed seat 4 presses the protrusions on the base 6, after the pressing cover 2, the hollow gear shaft 3, and the fixed seat 4 are mutually engaged, the three are combined into a cylindrical body with the same center. The rotation of the base 6 drives the rotation of the fixed seat 4. The positioning spline 41 of the fixed seat 4 is in close cooperation with the internal spline at the tail of the hollow gear shaft 3, driving the rotation of the hollow gear shaft 3, and the hollow gear shaft can rotate synchronously with the base of the hobbing machine. This ensures the machining of the external spline of the hollow gear shaft 3 by the hobbing machine.
