[0002] In the production of bearing rings, especially inner rings, the detection of the inner diameter is particularly important. In the hydraulic lathe processing production line, the requirements for the inner diameter size and ovality detection of products with short ring height (less than 8mm) and thin single-sided wall thickness (less than 1mm) are met. The ordinary hydraulic loading and clamping methods are prone to cause product deformation and end face damage. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an inner diameter size and roundness detection machine with simple operation, reliable action and fast response speed in view of the shortcomings of the existing technology.

[0004] An inner diameter size and roundness detection machine includes a workpiece and a frame. The workpiece is sucked or released by an electromagnetic chuck on a main shaft. A measuring mechanism and a feeding mechanism are provided on the frame.

[0005] The measuring mechanism includes a base mounted on a machine frame, a measuring frame base plate above the base, a first slider assembly mounted on the measuring frame base plate, a first measuring head mounted on the first slider assembly, and a first measuring head driven by a first pneumatic cylinder. The first measuring head is provided with a second slider assembly on the workpiece side, and a left probe and a right probe are provided on either side of the second slider assembly for measuring inner diameter or roundness. The left and right probes are slidably connected to a measuring claw retraction and extension guide plate, which is driven by a second pneumatic cylinder. When the second cylinder moves forward, the measuring claw retraction and extension guide plate drives the left and right probes to open, and when the second cylinder retracts, the left and right probes return to their original positions. A displacement sensor is provided on one side of the left or right probe to read data used to retract and extend the left and right probes. This practical device is simple and easy to debug, using the measuring claw retraction and extension guide plate to control the retraction and extension of the probes. It features simple operation and debugging, reliable operation, and fast response speed, and can meet the tempo and inspection requirements of automated production lines for automotive parts.

The discharge rod is driven by a fourth cylinder. An "NG" door is located behind the discharge panel and driven by an "NG" cylinder to remove rejected parts. A pusher block, driven by a third cylinder, is flanked by a loading stopper and a pressure block, each with a needle cylinder attached. A stopper is located on either side of the loading stopper and pressure block, and a photoelectric switch is located on the outside of the pressure block to detect the presence of workpieces. This rational structure ensures stable and reliable loading and unloading.

[0008] A first tension spring is provided between the measuring claw retraction and extension guide plate and the retraction and extension cylinder fixing plate, which has a reasonable structure, performs auxiliary stretching for forward and backward movement, and makes the action more reliable.

[0009] The left and right measuring heads are respectively provided with second tension springs on both sides. The structure is reasonable, and auxiliary tension is performed during contraction and expansion, making the operation more reliable.

[0010] The main shaft is powered by a stepping motor, which is positioned correctly to ensure the position requirements of the workpiece during detection.

[0011] A third slider assembly is provided between the base and the bottom plate of the test frame, and a push rod is used to adjust the up and down position of the bottom plate of the test frame, thereby ensuring the position requirements during testing.

[0012] The measuring claw retraction and extension guide plate is provided with two symmetrical, open special-shaped grooves, so that the positions of the left measuring head and the right measuring head are reliable and stable.

[0013] The following beneficial effects can be achieved by using this utility model: the utility model is simple and easy to debug, and the retraction and extension of the measuring head is controlled by combining the retraction and extension guide plate of the measuring claw with the tension spring. It has the characteristics of simple operation and debugging, reliable action, and fast response speed, and can meet the beat requirements and detection requirements of the automatic production line of lathe parts.
