Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the automotive field, in particular to a brake disc concentricity and runout detection jig. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of automotive technology, cars are achieving ever-increasing top speeds and stronger acceleration performance. This demands further improvements in braking performance, and the brake disc is a crucial component of the vehicle's braking system. A car's brake disc is a ring-shaped structure with an opening at its center. When the disc is attached to the wheel hub, friction between the disc and the wheel creates radial offset and runout during rotation, reducing braking efficiency and, in severe cases, damaging the vehicle's braking system and wheels. Therefore, brake discs must be inspected for concentricity and runout before leaving the factory.
[0003] However, the opening diameters of different brake discs are different. Due to the poor compatibility of current brake disc concentricity and runout testing instruments, only brake discs with a single center opening size can be placed on the testing instrument. In order to meet the concentricity and runout testing of brake discs with different opening diameters, the testing instrument needs to be frequently replaced, resulting in an increase in the number of steps in the brake disc concentricity and runout testing.

[0025] In order to further understand the content, features and effects of the present invention, the following embodiments are given as examples and described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a stereoscopic diagram of a brake disc concentricity detection fixture. This embodiment provides a brake disc concentricity detection fixture, including: an operating table 1, a measuring part 2 and a workpiece fixture assembly 3. The measuring part 2 and the workpiece fixture assembly 3 are respectively arranged on the operating table 1, and the measuring part 2 is arranged on one side of the workpiece fixture assembly 3. The operating table 1 is used to fix the measuring part 2 and the workpiece fixture assembly 3. When performing concentricity measurement, Figure 2 As shown, the brake disc 4 is put on the workpiece clamp assembly 3, and the workpiece clamp assembly 3 can fix the brake disc 4 to prevent the brake disc 4 from moving. In specific work, the brake disc 4 has an upper surface, a lower surface and a peripheral wall. When measuring the concentricity of the brake disc, the measuring end of the measuring part 2 is aligned with the peripheral wall of the brake disc 4. When measuring the runout of the brake disc, the measuring end of the measuring part 2 is located on the upper surface of the brake disc 4.
[0027] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, the workpiece clamp assembly 3 includes a reference base 31 and a clamping assembly 32. The reference base 31 is mounted on the operating table 1, and the clamping assembly 32 is mounted on the reference base 31. The reference base 31 is mounted and fixed with the clamping assembly 32. The reference base 31 can be configured as a cylindrical structure. The clamping assembly 32 is used to secure the brake disc 4 to prevent it from falling off when the reference base 31 rotates. In this embodiment, the clamping assembly 32 can be a four-jaw outward-flaring chuck.
[0028] The clamping assembly 32 includes an adjustment assembly 321, a clamping jaw 322, and a bottom cover 323. The bottom cover 323 is mounted on the base 31, the clamping jaw 322 is mounted on the bottom cover 323, and the adjustment assembly 321 is mounted on the clamping jaw 322. Rotating the adjustment assembly 321 in a first direction causes the clamping jaw 322 to expand radially, while rotating the adjustment assembly 321 in a second direction causes the clamping jaw 322 to contract radially. The first direction is opposite to the second direction, and the measuring end of the measuring portion 2 is aligned with the clamping jaw 322. Alternatively, the first direction may be clockwise, and the second direction may be counterclockwise, or the first direction may be counterclockwise, and the corresponding second direction may be clockwise.
[0029] In testing work, such as Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the first direction is counterclockwise, and the second direction is clockwise. The brake disc 4 is placed on the clamping jaws 322. The adjusting assembly 321 is rotated in the first direction, causing the adjusting assembly 321 to expand the clamping jaws 322, which secure the brake disc 4. The measuring end of the measuring unit 2 is now aligned with a point A on the circumferential wall of the brake disc 4, which is mounted on the clamping jaws 322. The reference base 31 is then connected to a rotary motor and started. The rotary motor drives the reference base 31 to rotate, which in turn drives the bottom cover 323 to rotate. The bottom cover 323 then drives the clamping jaws 322 and the brake disc 4 secured by the clamping jaws 322 to rotate together. When monitoring concentricity, the measuring unit 2 detects the circumference of point A on the circumferential wall of the brake disc 4 after one rotation. Since the circumference of the outer diameter of the brake disc 4 itself is a fixed value, when the reference base 31 rotates one circle, if the measuring instrument detects that the circumference of point A on the circumferential wall of the brake disc 4 after one rotation is different from the circumference of the brake disc 4 itself, it means that the center of the circle of the brake disc 4 has shifted during rotation. Figure 1 As shown, the adjustment assembly 321 includes an adjustment nut 3211 and a rotating bearing 3212. The adjustment nut 3211 is fixedly connected to the rotating bearing 3212. The clamping jaw 322 is sleeved outside the rotating bearing 3212 and is rotatably connected to the rotating bearing 3212. When the adjustment nut 3211 is rotated in a first direction, i.e., counterclockwise, the clamping jaw 322 expands radially to secure the brake disc 4. When the adjustment nut 3211 is then rotated in a second direction, i.e., clockwise, the clamping jaw 322 contracts radially, thereby releasing the brake disc 4.
[0030] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, the measuring unit 2 includes a support frame 21 and a measuring assembly 22. The support frame 21 is mounted on the operating table 1 and is located on one side of the workpiece fixture assembly 3. The measuring assembly 22 is mounted on the support frame 21 and can move up and down along the support frame 21 and rotate about the support frame 21 as the central axis. Specifically, the measuring assembly 22 is mounted on the support frame 21 and can move up and down along the support frame 21 to adjust the height according to the size of the brake disc 4.
[0031] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, the measuring assembly 22 includes a fixing nut 221, a connecting arm 222 and a measuring instrument 223. The fixing nut 221 is movably connected to the connecting arm 222. The connecting arm 222 is mounted on the support frame 21, and the connecting arm 222 can move up and down along the support frame 21 and can rotate around the support frame 21 as the central axis; the measuring instrument 223 is rotatably connected to the connecting arm 222, and the measuring instrument rotation axis 2231 of the measuring instrument 223 is perpendicular to the support frame 21 and the connecting arm 222 at the same time.
[0032] Among them, the fixing nut 221 can adjust the connecting arm 222. When the measuring instrument 223 needs to be raised or lowered, the fixing nut 221 can be loosened, and the connecting arm 222 can be adjusted along the support frame 21 for height adjustment. The measuring instrument 223 connected to the connecting arm 222 will be synchronously adjusted to the appropriate height. When it is necessary to adjust the measuring angle of the measuring instrument 223, the connecting arm 222 can be rotated around the support frame 21 so that the measuring instrument 223 rotates to the appropriate angle, and finally the fixing nut 221 is adjusted so that the fixing nut 221 fixes the connecting arm 222. If it is necessary to adjust the measuring angle of the measuring instrument 223 along the height direction of the support frame 21, the measuring instrument 223 can be toggled so that the measuring instrument 223 rotates around the rotation axis 2231, that is, the angle of the measuring instrument 223 can be adjusted, so that the concentricity of the brake disc 4 can be measured more accurately.
[0033] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, the connecting arm 222 includes a rotating disk 2221 and a rotating arm 2222. The rotating disk 2221 is sleeved on the support frame 21. The fixing nut 221 is movably connected to the rotating disk 2221. One end of the rotating arm 2222 is rotationally connected to the rotating disk 2221, and the other end of the rotating arm 2222 is rotationally connected to the measuring instrument 223. Among them, the rotating disk 2221 can rotate circumferentially on the support frame 21 and can also move up or down along the support frame 21. One end of the rotating arm 2222 is rotationally connected to the rotating disk 2221 through a rotating shaft 22221. The rotating shaft 22221 is parallel to the support frame 21, so that the rotating arm 2222 can also rotate circumferentially around the rotating disk 2221, so that the measuring angle of the measuring instrument 223 can be better adjusted. The other end of the rotating arm 2222 is rotationally connected to the measuring instrument 223 through a rotating shaft 2231, so that the measuring instrument 223 can rotate around the rotating shaft 2231. Among them, as Figure 2 As shown, by rotating the measuring instrument 223 around the rotation axis 2231 , the test head 2233 can be aligned with point B on the upper surface of the brake disc 4 , thereby testing the runout of the brake disc 4 .
[0034] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the measuring instrument 223 includes an instrument panel 2231 and a test head 2232. The instrument panel 2231 is fixedly connected to the test head 2232. The instrument panel 2231 is rotatably disposed on one end of the rotary arm 2222 via a rotating shaft 2231. It should be noted that the measuring instrument 223 can use an electronic dial indicator or a mechanical dial indicator. In this embodiment, the measuring instrument uses a mechanical dial indicator.
[0035] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the brake disc concentricity testing jig also includes a fixing member 324. The bottom cover 323 is also provided with a plurality of fixing holes 3231. The plurality of fixing holes 3231 are arranged around the edge of the bottom cover 323. The fixing members 324 are inserted into the fixing holes 3231. The bottom cover 323 is fixedly connected to the reference base 31 via fixing members 3232. The fixing members 324 are screws that are connected through the fixing holes 3231 to better secure the bottom cover 323 to the reference base 31.
[0036] Specifically, if Figure 4 As shown, a shock-absorbing layer 311 is provided on the periphery of the bottom cover 323, and the shock-absorbing layer 311 is provided on the reference seat 31. Since the brake disc 4 is too heavy, there will be vibration when the brake disc 4 is placed on the reference seat 31. Therefore, the shock-absorbing layer 311 is provided to reduce the vibration of the brake disc 4 when it is placed on the reference seat, thereby preventing damage to the reference seat 31.
[0037] During operation of the concentricity and runout testing fixture, the adjusting nut 3211 is first rotated counterclockwise to drive the rotating bearing 3212 to radially contract the clamping jaws 322, thereby placing the brake disc 4 on the reference base 31. The adjusting nut 3211 is then rotated clockwise to radially expand the rotating bearing 3212 to secure the brake disc 4. Once the brake disc 4 is secured to the reference base 31, the fixing nut 221 is rotated to allow the measuring instrument 223 to slide up and down along the support frame 21 to adjust the height of the measuring instrument 223 to the same height as the wall of the brake disc 4. Once the height of the measuring instrument 223 is aligned with the wall of the brake disc 4, the fixing nut 221 is rotated again to secure the height of the measuring instrument 223. This allows the test head 2233 of the measuring instrument 223 to align with point A on the wall of the brake disc 4, or for the test head 2233 to be tangent to point A. The reference base 31 is then connected to the rotating motor to rotate the reference base 31, thereby rotating the brake disc 4. The test head 2233 thus measures the length of point A on the peripheral wall of the brake disc 4 moving around one circle, and the length of point A moving around one circle is read out through the instrument panel 2232. Since the circumference of the peripheral wall of the brake disc 4 is a fixed value, the circumference of the movement of point A can be compared with the circumference of the peripheral wall of the brake disc 4, thereby completing the concentricity detection of the brake disc 4.
[0038] At the same time, the runout of the brake disc 4 can also be tested. The runout test method is the same as the concentricity test. It should be noted that the runout test requires the test head 2233 to be aligned with point B on the upper surface of the brake disc 4. Before the test, the distance from point B to the center of the brake disc 4 must be measured, and the standard circumference of point B around the brake disc 4 must be calculated. When the brake disc 4 rotates, the measuring instrument 223 measures the circumference of point B after one rotation and compares it with the standard circumference of point B around the brake disc 4, thereby testing the runout of the brake disc 4.
[0039] In summary, the concentricity and runout detection fixture of the present invention is configured by arranging a clamping jaw 322 on a reference seat 31 of a workpiece clamp assembly 3, and controlling the radial expansion and radial contraction of the clamping jaw 322 by adjusting the cooperation between the nut 3211 and the rotary bearing 3212, so that the clamping jaw 322 can clamp brake discs 4 with different sizes of center circles, thereby eliminating the need to replace the workpiece clamp assembly 3 on which the brake disc 4 is placed, thereby improving work efficiency during operation.
