Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical technology and relates to a comprehensive inspection tool, particularly a shift fork comprehensive inspection tool. Background Technology
[0002] Shift fork parts are complex, irregularly shaped components with intricate spatial structures. After the blank is formed, only the usable area is machined, resulting in a large proportion of the blank surface and a small machined area. This leads to difficulties in finished product inspection and positioning, and poor inspection stability.
[0003] The existing technical solution uses an auxiliary mandrel and a coordinate measuring machine (CMM). The part is first fixed on the auxiliary mandrel before CMM measurement. However, the large space required fork leads to a long measurement cycle and low efficiency. Furthermore, when constructing the coordinate system, the CMM is prone to inaccurate repeated point placement and coordinate system deviations, resulting in amplified errors and ultimately inaccurate and inefficient measurements. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing a convenient, reliable, efficient, and simple integrated inspection tool for shift forks.
[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: A comprehensive inspection tool for shift forks includes a base plate and a side plate fixed to the base plate. A horizontally arranged spindle is vertically fixed to the side plate. A reference hole is provided through the side wall of the spindle for inserting a positioning pin. The tool is characterized in that a connecting seat is fixed to the side plate, and a detection block is provided through the connecting seat. The outer end of the detection block is a detection part for detecting shift forks. A horizontally arranged positioning spindle is vertically fixed to the side plate. The positioning spindle is located below the spindle. A rotatable turntable is axially fixed to the upper end of the positioning spindle. The turntable has reference grooves on both sides for the fork feet of the shift forks to be inserted. The two side walls of the reference grooves are reference surfaces. A handle that can drive the turntable to rotate is fixed to the outer end face of the turntable.
[0006] The shift fork includes a shift fork head and a shift fork foot. The shift fork head has a through connecting hole and a small shift fork hole, which communicates with the connecting hole. The side of the shift fork head also has a protrusion. During inspection, the head of the shift fork to be inspected is fitted onto the mandrel, so that the shift fork foot is embedded in the reference groove. Then, the positioning pin is inserted into the small shift fork hole and the reference hole of the mandrel. By rotating the turntable, it is checked whether the shift fork foot can rotate smoothly in the reference groove, which is used to check whether the spatial distance and perpendicularity of the shift fork foot meet the requirements. Then, the detection block is inserted into the connecting seat and the detection part of the detection block abuts against the protrusion of the shift fork head to check whether the protrusion of the shift fork head meets the requirements. Using this integrated inspection tool, there are advantages such as convenient and reliable inspection, high inspection efficiency, and simple structure.
[0007] In the aforementioned integrated inspection fixture for shift forks, the front end of the turntable has a notch that communicates with the reference groove, allowing the shift fork feet to pass through. The notch at the front end of the turntable facilitates operation and improves inspection efficiency.
[0008] In the aforementioned integrated fork inspection fixture, the connecting seat has a square-shaped insertion hole in the middle. The detection block matches the insertion hole and passes through it. The square insertion hole on the connecting seat provides good positioning and accurate positioning of the detection block, thus improving inspection accuracy.
[0009] In the aforementioned integrated fork inspection fixture, the turntable includes a turntable body, the outer end of which has a shoulder, and a cover is fixedly connected to the outer end of the turntable body. The cover and the turntable body form the reference groove. The turntable formed by the cover and the turntable body has the advantages of simple structure and convenient manufacturing.
[0010] In the aforementioned integrated fork fixture, one end of the locating pin is a reference portion inserted into the reference hole, and the other end of the locating pin is a handle portion. This configuration offers the advantages of convenient operation and simple structure.
[0011] In the aforementioned integrated fork fixture, the inner end of the positioning mandrel is fixedly connected to the side plate by screws, the outer end of the positioning mandrel has a shoulder, the inner end face of the turntable abuts against the shoulder, and a washer is fixedly connected to the outer end of the positioning mandrel, the inner end face of the washer abutting against the outer end face of the turntable. This configuration provides the advantages of good positioning effect and simple structure for the turntable.
[0012] In the aforementioned integrated fork inspection fixture, a bearing is provided between the turntable and the positioning spindle. By providing the bearing, the turntable can rotate relative to the positioning spindle, thus improving operational reliability.
[0013] Compared with existing technologies, this integrated inspection tool for shift forks has the following advantages:
[0014] 1. Insert the positioning pin into the small hole of the shift fork and the reference hole of the spindle. By rotating the turntable, check whether the shift fork foot can rotate smoothly in the reference groove. This is used to check whether the spatial distance and perpendicularity of the shift fork foot meet the requirements. Then, insert the detection block into the connecting seat and make the detection part of the detection block abut against the protrusion of the shift fork head to check whether the protrusion of the shift fork head meets the requirements. Using this comprehensive inspection tool has the advantages of convenient and reliable detection, high detection efficiency and simple structure.
[0015] 2. The front end of the turntable is provided with a notch for the fork feet to pass through, which makes operation simple and convenient and improves detection efficiency;
[0016] 3. The connector is equipped with a square insertion hole, which has a good positioning effect and accurately positions the detection block, thus improving the detection accuracy;
[0017] 4. The turntable includes a turntable body, the outer end of which has a shoulder, and a cover is fixedly connected to the outer end of the turntable body. The cover and the turntable body form a reference groove, which has the advantages of simple structure and convenient manufacturing. Attached Figure Description
