Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of coupling processing auxiliary equipment, in particular to a positioning mechanism for coupling grinding. Background Art
[0002] Couplings, as key components in mechanical transmission systems, connect two or more shafts to transmit torque or rotational motion. During the coupling manufacturing process, the smoothness of the outer surface is crucial to its performance and lifespan. Therefore, polishing is an integral part of coupling processing, aiming to remove surface defects and improve the finish, thereby ensuring precise fit and stable operation.
[0003] Traditionally, coupling grinding has primarily relied on machine tools. Machine tools, with their high precision and efficiency, play a crucial role in metalworking. However, during the coupling grinding process, the machine tool uses a three-jaw chuck for clamping and limiting. A common fixture on machine tools, the three-jaw chuck radially clamps the workpiece, thereby achieving positioning. However, this clamping method prevents the clamped portion of the workpiece from being effectively polished, creating a so-called "white area." This white area not only affects the overall appearance of the coupling but, more importantly, can compromise its assembly accuracy and performance. To compensate for this shortcoming, workers often need to perform additional processing after machine grinding to address the white area that cannot be reached by hand. This significantly increases production steps and labor costs, reducing production efficiency.
[0004] Furthermore, a three-jaw chuck typically requires a certain amount of clamping force to ensure secure fixation when clamping a coupling. This clamping force creates an indentation on the coupling surface, which not only damages the coupling's surface integrity but can also become a source of stress concentration, reducing the coupling's strength and durability. This indentation is particularly significant when high-precision machining is performed on the coupling.
[0005] In summary, the machine tool grinding and positioning method has many shortcomings in the coupling processing process, such as the generation of blank areas and the formation of surface indentations. These problems not only affect the processing quality and production efficiency of the coupling, but also increase the difficulty and cost of subsequent processing. Utility Model Content

[0024] The following is a clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments; based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0025] Please see the attached Figure 1-5 The present embodiment provides a positioning mechanism for grinding a coupling, comprising a base 1, a slide 2 being slidably connected to the base 1, a right bracket 3 being rotatably connected to the slide 2, a left bracket 4 being provided on the side of the right bracket 3, the left bracket 4 being fixedly connected to the base 1, a support shaft 5 being provided on both the left bracket 4 and the right bracket 3, two inner hole locators 6 being provided at the ends of the two support shafts 5, and a grinding shaft 7 being clamped at the middle of the two inner hole locators 6.
[0026] The base 1 is fixedly connected to the machine tool. The base 1 is located below the grinding mechanism of the machine tool. The left bracket 4 and the right bracket 3 on the base 1 respectively support the two ends of the grinding shaft 7. There are inner hole locators 6 on the left bracket 4 and the right bracket 3. There are through holes at both ends of the grinding shaft 7, but the through holes do not pass through the grinding shaft 7. The left bracket 4 is fixed to the base 1. The position of the left bracket 4 is fixed. The right bracket 3 is fixedly connected to the slide 2. At the same time, the right bracket 3 and the slide 2 can be rotated and adjusted. When installing the grinding shaft 7, the right bracket 3 can be rotated ninety degrees clockwise. At this time, the support shaft 5 and the inner hole locator 6 on the right bracket 3 are In the vertical state, when installing the grinding shaft 7, the grinding shaft 7 can be vertically inserted into the inner hole locator 6 for fixing, and then the right bracket 3 is rotated in the opposite direction. At this time, the inner hole locator 6 of the right bracket 3 corresponds to the center of the inner hole locator 6 of the left bracket 4. Then the slide 2 is moved, and the grinding shaft 7 is driven to move to the left through the slide 2 until the left end of the grinding shaft 7 is fitted with the inner hole locator 6 on the left bracket 4. At this time, the two inner hole locators 6 fix the inner holes of the two ends of the grinding shaft 7 to avoid leaving blank areas. At the same time, both ends of the grinding shaft 7 are supported, which can better improve the stability of the grinding shaft 7 and avoid scratches on the grinding shaft 7 caused by excessive clamping.
[0027] The inner hole locator 6 includes a chuck 601 and a claw 602. The chuck 601 is fixedly connected to the support shaft 5. A fixed rod 603 is fixedly connected to the middle of the chuck 601. An electromagnetic disk 604 is provided on the side of the claw 602. The electromagnetic disk 604 is fixedly connected to the chuck 601. A sliding groove 605 is provided on the electromagnetic disk 604 for the claw 602 to slide.
[0028] The structure of the chuck 601 and the claw 602 in the inner hole locator 6 is the same as that of the existing three-jaw chuck 601. There are three claws 602, which are distributed at equal angles on the chuck 601. The three claws 602 are all facing the center of the chuck 601. The three claws 602 can be synchronously gathered or spread toward the center of the chuck 601. The structure of the claw 602 is different from that of the existing three-jaw chuck 601. The outer side of the claw 602 is provided with an anti-slip layer, and the fixing rod 603 is located at the claw 60 2, the length of the fixing rod 603 is the same as the length of the inner hole of the grinding shaft 7. When fixing the inner hole of the grinding shaft 7, the fixing rod 603 just supports the bottom surface of the inner hole, and at the same time, the three claws 602 fix the side of the inner hole. In addition, an electromagnetic disk 604 is installed on the inner hole fixer. The electromagnetic disk 604 is close to the end face of the grinding shaft 7. The electromagnetic disk 604 is an electromagnetic structure that has magnetism when powered on and has no magnetism when powered off. While improving the stability of the grinding shaft 7, it is convenient for disassembly of the grinding shaft 7.
[0029] When the right bracket 3 rotates relative to the slide 2, the connecting pin 8 slides in the guide slot 9, and the angle of the guide slot 9 is ninety degrees. This ensures that when the connecting pin 8 is at the lowermost position of the guide slot 9, the support shaft 5 on the right bracket 3 is in a horizontal state. At this time, the axes of the two support shafts 5 are collinear. When the connecting pin 8 is at the uppermost position of the guide slot 9, the support shaft 5 on the right bracket 3 is in a vertical state. This can ensure the two extreme states of the support shaft 5, which is convenient for fixing and positioning the grinding shaft 7. The fixing handle 10 is threadedly connected to the connecting pin 8. The size of the fixing handle 10 is larger than the size of the guide slot 9. The fixing handle 10 squeezes the slide 2 to keep the slide 2 and the right bracket 3 fixed.
[0030] The clamping claw 602 is an L-shaped structure, and the groove 11 on the inner side of the clamping claw fits with the fixing rod 603. The end of the clamping claw 602 is an oblique groove, which makes it convenient for the clamping claw 602 to enter the inner diameter force of the connecting pin 8 along with the fixing rod 603. In addition, the fixing rod 603 is a telescopic rod hydraulic telescopic rod structure, which can be applied to inner diameters of different depths.
[0031] The cooperation between the electromagnetic slide 12 and the card slot 13 drives the slide 2 to slide left and right on the base 1. The electromagnetic slide 12 drives and locks the movement of the slide 2. After the right bracket 3 and the left bracket 4 fix the grinding shaft 7, the electromagnetic slide 12 fixes the position of the slide 2. The guide rod 14 is located on the rear side of the base 1. The guide rod 14 guides the movement of the guide block 15, thereby ensuring that the moving trajectory of the slide 2 is left and right, and ensuring that the moving trajectory of the slide 2 is a straight line.
[0032] Furthermore, a size bar 16 is provided on the base 1, and the size bar 16 is used to measure the length of the grinding shaft 7. The left end of the size bar 16 is aligned with the electromagnetic disk 604 on the left bracket 4, and the left end of the slide 2 is aligned with the electromagnetic disk 604 on the right bracket 3. After fixing the grinding shaft 7, the length of the grinding shaft 7 is intuitively displayed through the number on the size bar 16 corresponding to the left end of the slide 2, which can be used to intuitively display the length of the grinding shaft 7 when adjusting the machine tool or even the grinding length.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
