Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a chuck, in particular to an internal expansion chuck. Background Art
[0002] For tubular or shell-shaped workpieces, or workpieces with difficult-to-clamp exteriors, expansion sleeves are often used to expand the workpiece outward, clamp it within the workpiece's inner hole, and tighten the workpiece from the inside for easier machining. This is why internal expansion chucks have emerged. Currently, common internal expansion chucks have a limited range of workpieces they can clamp, often only ensuring expansion at one end. Therefore, if the workpiece to be machined is too long, this type of internal expansion chuck can only guarantee accuracy at one end. Because the other end is too long, the workpiece will be too long, resulting in different precision at both ends, whether machining directly or re-clamping. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an internal expansion chuck which has a simple structure and can effectively ensure the processing accuracy of a workpiece.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above technical problems is:
[0005] An internal expansion chuck comprises a chuck body and an expansion sleeve, wherein the chuck body is provided with a mounting portion for mounting the expansion sleeve, a pull rod is coaxially arranged in the mounting portion, the pull rod comprises a positioning head and a pulling rod portion coaxially arranged in sequence from front to back, the pulling rod portion can be movably arranged in the mounting portion along the axial direction, the positioning head extends outward and is arranged outside the mounting portion, the expansion sleeve has a cavity that passes through from front to back, the cavity comprises a front section chamber located in the front end head of the expansion sleeve and a cavity located in the expansion sleeve The rear section chamber in the rear end head, the inner diameter of the front section chamber gradually decreases from front to back, and the inner diameter of the rear section chamber gradually increases from front to back. The positioning head has a truncated cone-shaped expansion part with an outer diameter gradually decreasing from front to back, which cooperates with the front section chamber. The front section of the mounting part is a truncated cone body with an outer diameter gradually increasing from front to back, which cooperates with the rear section chamber. The expansion sleeve is arranged on the positioning head and the mounting part, so that the expansion part is tightly fitted in the front section chamber, and the truncated cone body is tightly fitted in the rear section chamber.
[0006] The front and rear chambers are connected by a transition chamber, which together form the hollow chamber. The transition chamber can be used to increase the length of the expansion sleeve. A waist-shaped guide groove, which subsequently connects to the hollow chamber, can directly communicate with the transition chamber, working in conjunction with a guide pin to limit the twisting of the expansion sleeve during use.
[0007] The transition chamber is a cylindrical chamber with the same inner diameter from front to back, which is easy to process.
[0008] A connecting sleeve is disposed within the chuck body, allowing for forward and backward movement. The connecting sleeve is coaxially disposed with the pull rod, and the rear end of the pull rod is coaxially fixedly disposed with the connecting sleeve. The connecting sleeve is used to connect to a corresponding drive mechanism, which drives the connecting sleeve to move forward and backward, thereby driving the pull rod to move forward and backward stably.
[0009] The expansion part is an annular protrusion provided on the front part of the positioning head, and the outer diameter of the annular protrusion gradually decreases from the front to the back. The structure is simple and easy to manufacture.
[0010] The sidewall of the expansion sleeve is provided with a waist-shaped guide groove that communicates with the cavity. A guide pin is disposed within the waist-shaped guide groove. One end of the guide pin is movably disposed within the waist-shaped guide groove, while the other end of the guide pin is fixedly attached to the positioning head. The guide pin and waist-shaped guide groove cooperate to define the relative motion range between the pull rod and the expansion sleeve. Furthermore, when the expansion sleeve is reset, the guide pin can propel the expansion sleeve forward to its starting position.
[0011] A positioning pin is provided on the side of the chuck body, and a waist-shaped positioning groove is provided axially on the pull rod. The inner end of the positioning pin extends into the chuck body and is positioned within the waist-shaped positioning groove. The positioning pin and the waist-shaped positioning groove cooperate to limit the travel of the pull rod and prevent the pull rod from rotating.
[0012] A positioning backer is sleeved on the positioning head and removably fixed to the chuck body. The positioning backer is located behind the expansion sleeve. The positioning backer is used to position the workpiece and is removably connected to the chuck body, making it easy to replace different positioning backers according to different workpieces.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are: simple structure, wherein conical chambers are respectively provided at both ends of the expansion sleeve, and the two conical chambers respectively cooperate with the pull rod and the corresponding structures on the mounting part. When the pull rod is pulled backward, the expansion sleeve is driven to move backward synchronously, and the front chamber cooperates with the expansion part to realize the expansion of the front end of the expansion sleeve, and the rear chamber cooperates with the frustum to realize the expansion of the rear end of the expansion sleeve, so that the two ends of the expansion sleeve are simultaneously expanded along the diameter direction, increasing the contact area between the expansion sleeve and the inner hole of the workpiece, so as to provide a stable clamping force to the workpiece, thereby ensuring the processing accuracy of the workpiece.
