Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of machinery, in particular to a machining tool. Background Art
[0002] The current industry faces a major variable problem when machining new energy aluminum alloy battery trays. That is, the aluminum alloy battery trays after welding will have diagonal twisting, poor flatness, box frame (sealing surface) turning inside out, and box concave and convex deformation. When the aluminum alloy battery tray is placed on the machining device, it will deform under the clamping state. Due to the deformation of the box, the A datum in some areas cannot be firmly attached, leaving a large gap. After deformation after clamping, after the downward pressure is released after machining, the product will return to the original welding state, which is extremely unstable for the processing size. For machining, it is bound to result in long machine adjustment time, high loss cost, and failure to meet the relevant dimensional requirements of each host assembly, resulting in an indefinite extension of the entire project development time.
[0003] In view of the fact that the existing aluminum alloy battery tray machining tooling cannot meet the problem of multiple dimensional defects caused by box deformation, there is an urgent need for a machining tooling that can be used for aluminum alloy battery trays after welding.

The three reference blocks 2 are fitted with the bottom of the aluminum alloy battery tray. Visually check the gap (the gap detected by the feeler gauge is less than or equal to 0.1mm).

[0042] 2. Adjust the three downward rotating cylinders to press the three reference blocks at 2 locations. In the pressed state, the battery tray body displacement is less than 0.1MM.
[0043] 3. Under the pressure of the three reference blocks 2, the other suspended areas at the bottom of the aluminum alloy battery tray can be high or low, which is determined by the welding variables.
