Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of detection tools, and in particular relates to a spline symmetry detection tool. Background Art

[0002] Spline shafts are commonly used in mechanical transmissions, mating with transmissions through splines to transmit power. Spline shaft symmetry, which refers to the symmetry between the axis and the gap between the splines or keyway width, is a crucial factor in ensuring mechanical transmission accuracy. Poor spline shaft symmetry can lead to unstable operation, increased noise, and even failure of the transmission.

[0003] In the existing technology, after automotive parts are processed with splines, the spline symmetry needs to be tested. The current conventional testing method is three-coordinate testing, which is time-consuming and occupies a large amount of testing resources. Manual testing of spline symmetry has the problems of slow testing efficiency and low testing accuracy. In particular, for splines of different specifications, factors such as the installation of the splines and the positioning of the testing equipment will affect the testing accuracy and efficiency. Therefore, a spline symmetry testing fixture is needed to solve the problems of the existing technology for spline symmetry testing, such as the long testing time and high testing cost when using three-coordinate testing, and the low testing efficiency and testing accuracy when using manual testing.
