Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bearing ring processing, in particular to a diameter-adjustable positioning device for turning a bearing ring. Background Art
[0002] Rolling bearings are considered standard parts among mechanical components and are precision accessories. Bearing rings, as annular components, are typically produced by turning. As a crucial step in the bearing production process, the widespread use of CNC lathes for bearing ring turning has significantly reduced the number of machining steps, improved the quality of turned products, and ensured excellent precision for subsequent heat treatment and grinding. Under existing bearing ring processing methods, batch processing can be completed with a single positioning operation. However, due to the wide variety of bearing types and the varying outer diameters of the positioning devices used for bearing rings of varying diameters, a large number of positioning devices must be stored during the bearing ring processing process to accommodate model changes, resulting in high inventory costs. Each model change requires replacement of the positioning device, and to eliminate installation errors, the positioning surface must be re-turned after installation. Multiple model changes and turning operations often result in insufficient positioning height, leading to the need for scrapping and reworking, resulting in high manufacturing costs. Utility Model Content

[0020] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0021] See also Figures 1-4 A bearing ring turning and positioning device with adjustable diameter includes a disc-shaped positioning base 1 made of non-magnetic stainless steel to prevent debris generated during turning of the bearing ring from becoming magnetized and adsorbed within the positioning base 1, thereby affecting the positioning accuracy of the device. The device also includes a dovetail plate 2, a fine-tuning mechanism, and a fixing assembly. An annular boss 3 is provided on one end surface of the positioning base 1, and a plurality of dovetail grooves 4 are formed therein for cooperating with the dovetail plate 2 to enable sliding of the dovetail plate 2. The dovetail grooves 4 extend toward the axis of the positioning base 1. The dovetail plates 2 have the same number of dovetail grooves 4, and the dovetail plates 2 slide in engagement with the dovetail grooves 4. A supporting protrusion 5 is provided on the dovetail plate 2 along the axis of the positioning base 1 to stabilize the bearing ring, thereby maintaining a vertical position and preventing turning errors caused by tilting of the bearing ring. The fixing assembly is connected between the positioning base 1 and the dovetail grooves 4, and the fine-tuning mechanism is provided on the supporting protrusion 5.
[0022] The end face of the dovetail plate 2 is an isosceles trapezoid. The bottoms of its two inclined sides are provided with graduated grooves 6. A waist-shaped adjustment hole 7 is provided at the top of the dovetail plate 2, extending vertically through it. An adjustment cavity 8 is also provided, extending through the upper and lower bottom surfaces of the dovetail plate 2. The graduated grooves 6 allow the specific positioning diameter to be calculated based on the diameter of the bearing ring. This diameter can then be precisely adjusted by moving the dovetail plate 2 according to the graduated grooves 6, achieving diameter adjustment.
[0023] The dovetail groove 4 is provided with a fixing screw hole 9 for cooperating with the hexagon socket bolt 12 and fixing the dovetail plate 2 .
[0024] The fine-tuning mechanism includes a first jackscrew 10 and a second jackscrew 11. The first jackscrew 10 is parallel to the axis of the positioning base 1 and is threadedly engaged with the supporting protrusion 5. One end of the first jackscrew 10 is located in the adjustment cavity 8, and the second jackscrew 11 is threadedly connected to one side of the supporting protrusion 5 and engages with the first jackscrew 10. When the positioning device wears out due to long-term use and affects vertical positioning, the first jackscrew 10 can be adjusted to fine-tune and move upward, thereby correcting the positioning error caused by the wear of the supporting protrusion 5. When the first jackscrew 10 moves to the desired height, the second jackscrew 11 is adjusted so that it is stuck on the surface of the first jackscrew 10, so that the fine-tuning mechanism is in a locked state for subsequent positioning operations.
[0025] The fixing assembly includes a hexagon socket head bolt 12 and a washer 13. The washer 13 is pressed over the adjustment hole 7. The hexagon socket head bolt 12 passes through the washer 13 and the adjustment hole 7 and is threaded into the fixing screw hole 9. After the washer 13 is positioned on the adjustment hole 7, the hexagon socket head bolt 12 is passed through the fixing slot 21 and connected to the fixing screw hole 9 on the dovetail slot 4, thereby fixing the dovetail plate 2 to the positioning base 1 and completing the diameter adjustment.
[0026] The top surface of the positioning base 1 is provided with a plurality of mounting connection holes 14. After being connected with M10 bolts, the mounting connection holes 14 can be fixed in the clamping fixture to fix the positioning device, so as to facilitate subsequent turning operations. There are three dovetail grooves (4) and they are evenly distributed along the circumference of the annular boss (3).
[0027] The usage and working principle of this utility model are as follows:
[0028] When turning the bearing ring, the positioning device is secured to the clamping fixture using M10 bolts through the mounting connection holes 14. The dovetail plate 2 is then installed into the dovetail groove 4 on the positioning base 1. The dovetail plate 2 is adjusted according to the positioning diameter of the bearing ring being machined. After determining the positioning position based on the calculated distance and the scale grooves 6, the dovetail plate 2 is secured with a gasket 13 and hexagon socket bolts 12, securing the dovetail plate 2 to the positioning base 1. The remaining dovetail plates 2 are then adjusted sequentially based on the scale distance and method of movement of the first dovetail plate 2. After adjusting the dovetail plate 2 and securing the positioning device, the machine tool is started and calibrated with a standard sleeve. After the calibration check is complete, the standard sleeve is removed, and turning of the bearing ring can begin.
[0029] During use, if a change in type is required and the positioning diameter is within the allowable adjustment range of the dovetail plate 2, the hexagon socket bolt 12 can be adjusted to release the fixation of the dovetail plate 2, and the dovetail plate 2 can be adjusted again to the desired positioning position according to the positioning rings of different diameters, so that the positioning convex surfaces 36 remain in the same vertical plane while meeting the positioning requirements of bearing rings of different diameters. There is no need to disassemble and replace the entire positioning device, saving time in replacing the positioning device and achieving rapid type change. If the device produces slight wear during long-term positioning use, the first top screw 10 can be adjusted in the adjustment cavity 8 to correct the error caused by the wear of the supporting protrusion 5, so that the positioning surfaces of the various protrusions of the positioning device remain in the same vertical position, thereby ensuring the positioning accuracy of the device during the turning of the bearing ring.
[0030] The above are merely embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
