Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model discloses a clamping device for machining mechanical products, in particular to a clamping device for a complete set of large-mouth thin-wall nickel-copper alloy products. Background Art
[0002] The large-diameter, thin-walled nickel-copper alloy product set consists of a housing and three forged parts (pneumatic piston, piston ring, and retaining ring). It has large inner and outer diameters of approximately 1200-1600 mm, thin walls of 20-30 mm, runout ≤ 0.05, roundness ≤ 0.065, and a minimum dimensional tolerance of 0-0.036 mm. Due to the large diameter and thin walls, high precision is required. Furthermore, the material used is nickel-copper alloy, which is difficult to machine. Specifically:
[0003] Nickel-copper alloy material is an alloy with nickel as the main element and a certain amount of copper, iron, manganese and other elements. Its difficult processing performance is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
[0004] Work hardening: During machining, the material is prone to deformation and hardening, increasing the difficulty of machining. High viscosity: The chips produced during cutting have high viscosity and easily adhere to the tool, affecting machining quality and tool life. Poor thermal conductivity: The heat generated during machining is difficult to dissipate, which can easily cause the tool to overheat, affecting tool life and machining accuracy. High hardness requires the use of more wear-resistant tools and higher cutting parameters to ensure effective machining. Deformability: Deformation is prone to occur during machining, requiring appropriate machining processes and fixtures to ensure accuracy.
[0005] Large-diameter, thin-walled parts are typically processed on vertical lathes, as their vertical layout better withstands gravity and cutting forces, reduces deformation during machining, and helps ensure precision. However, our company primarily operates horizontal CNC lathes, with only one vertical lathe, which falls far short of our production schedule. To address this issue, we have designed and manufactured a complete set of large-diameter, thin-walled nickel-copper alloy clamping devices specifically for horizontal CNC lathes. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The clamping assembly comprises a screw 4, a pressure plate 5, and a support block 3. The front end of the screw 4 passes through the arch-shaped boss 1.1.1 and the pressure plate 5, which is press-fitted onto the end face of the product, and is then fastened with a nut 6. The pressure plate 5 has a waist-shaped hole 5.1 for the screw to pass through. The support block 3 is located outside the screw 4 between the arch-shaped boss 1.1 and the pressure plate 5.
[0026] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the shell structure, refer to Figure 4 When the inner hole of the shell 2 needs to be processed: the inner hole 2.1 of the flange end is embedded in the first boss 1.2 of the base 1, the screw 4 passes through the center screw hole 1.1.1 of the arch-shaped boss 1.1, passes through the waist hole 5.1 of the pressure plate 5, and the support block 3 is parallel to the screw 4. One end of the support block 3 supports the end face of the arch-shaped boss 1.1, and the other end of the support block 3 supports one side of the pressure plate 5. The other side of the pressure plate 5 is pressed on the inner end face 2.2 of the flange of the shell 2, and the nut 6 is passed through the screw 4 and tightened. This operation is performed on the remaining arch-shaped bosses 1.1 on the base 1. In this way, the shell 2 is fixed on the base 1 through the arch-shaped boss 1.1, support block 3, screw 4, pressure plate 5, and nut 6 on the base 1. Then, the horizontal lathe clamps the outer circle of the base 1 and semi-finishes and finishes the inner hole of the shell 2 to the process requirements.
[0027] When the outer circle of the shell 2 needs to be processed: the inner hole 2.1 of the flange end is embedded in the first boss 1.2 of the base 1, one end of the screw 4 is fixed on one of the middle screw holes 1.5, and the other end passes through the waist round hole 5.1 of the pressure plate 5. The support block 3 is parallel to the screw 4. One end of the support block 3 supports the end face of the arch-shaped boss 1.1, and the other end of the support block 3 supports one side of the pressure plate 5. The other side of the pressure plate 5 is pressed on the end face 2.3 of the inner hole boss of the shell 2. The nut 6 is passed through the screw 4 and tightened. This operation is performed on the remaining middle screw holes 1.5 of the base 1. In this way, the shell 2 is fixed on the base 1. Then, the horizontal lathe clamps the outer circle of the base 1 and semi-finishes and finishes the outer circle of the shell 2 to the process requirements.
[0028] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the triple forging 7, which consists of a piston ring 7.1, a pneumatic piston 7.2, and a gear ring 7.3. Figure 6 and Figure 7 When it is necessary to process the inner circle, small end outer circle, and groove of the triple forging 7: the inner hole of one end of the piston ring 7.1 is embedded in the second boss 1.3, one end of the screw 4 is fixed on the outer screw hole 1.4, and the other end passes through the waist hole 5.1 of the pressure plate 5. The support block 3 is parallel to the screw 4. One end of the support block 3 supports the end face of the arch-shaped boss 1.1, and the other end of the support block 3 supports one side of the pressure plate 5. The other side of the pressure plate 5 presses on the flange end face 7.2.1 of the pneumatic piston 7.2. The nut 6 is passed through the screw 4 and tightened. This operation is performed on the remaining outer screw holes 1.4 of the base 1. The horizontal lathe clamps the outer circle of the base 1. First, the inner and outer circles of the retaining ring 7.3 are semi-finished and finished to the process requirements, and then the retaining ring 7.3 is cut off. Next, the inner circle, small end outer circle, and groove of the pneumatic piston 7.2 are semi-finished and finished to the process requirements.
[0029] When machining the outer diameter of the pneumatic piston 7.2, the base 1, along with the piston ring 7.1 and pneumatic piston 7.2, is unloaded from the CNC horizontal lathe. First, the eight screws 4, eight support blocks 3, pressure plate 5, and nut 6 fixed to the outer threaded holes 1.4 are removed from the base. One end of the screw 4 is then fixed to the inner threaded hole 1.6, and the other end passes through the waist hole 5.1 of the pressure plate 5. The support block 3 is parallel to the screw 4. One end of the support block 3 supports the end face of the base 1, and the other end of the support block 3 supports one side of the pressure plate 5. The other side of the pressure plate 5 presses on the inner hole end of the pneumatic piston 7.2, at 7.2.2. The nut 6 is passed through the screw 4 and tightened. This operation is repeated on the remaining inner threaded holes 1.6 of the base 1. After machining, the horizontal lathe is used to clamp the outer diameter of the base again and machine the outer diameter of the pneumatic piston 7.2 to the required size.
[0030] Remove base 1 along with piston ring 7.1 and pneumatic piston 7.2. Using a flat lathe, cut pneumatic piston 7.2 from base 1, leaving a 1mm margin on the end face. At this point, only piston ring 7.1 remains on base 1. Screw 4, pressure plate 5, and support block 3 press the inner end face of pneumatic piston 7.2 from the outside, then semi-finish and finish turn the inner bore of pneumatic piston 7.2 to process specifications. Screw 4, pressure plate 5, and support block 3 press the inner end face of pneumatic piston 7.2 from the inside, then semi-finish and finish turn the outer diameter of pneumatic piston 7.2 to process specifications. Finally, knock piston ring 7.1 off base 1, and finish turn the end face to process specifications.
[0031] At this point, a set of tooling has completed the processing of the complete set of products including the housing 2, the gear ring 7.3, the pneumatic piston 7.2, and the piston ring 7.1.
