Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of engine spindle positioning and testing, and in particular to an engine spindle positioning and testing tool. Background Technology

[0002] The engine spindle is a key component of the engine, responsible for receiving power from the engine and transmitting it to other parts. The spindle is usually made of high-strength, high-wear-resistant materials to ensure that it can withstand high loads and long-term operation. In addition, the design of the spindle also takes into account heat dissipation and wear resistance to improve its service life and performance. Engine spindles are widely used in various vehicles and mechanical equipment, such as automobiles, motorcycles, excavators, etc. At the same time, according to specific needs, the spindle can also be customized as a non-standard part to meet the special requirements of different equipment.

[0003] After the spindle is manufactured, a series of tests are required, such as crankshaft crack inspection, radial runout detection, crankshaft diameter measurement, and axial clearance measurement. When detecting the radial runout of the spindle, it is generally measured using a magnetic dial indicator base and dial indicator contacts. The swing amplitude of the dial indicator needle reflects the degree of bending. Generally, the magnetic dial indicator base is fixed first, and then the dial indicator contacts are fixed. Since the spindle is generally set as a stepped shaft, each step needs to be tested for radial runout. Generally, it is tested one step at a time, or multiple magnetic dial indicator bases and dial indicator contacts are used to test simultaneously. However, this test method requires fixing multiple magnetic dial indicator bases, which is time-consuming and not convenient for observing multiple dial indicator contacts at the same time.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose an engine spindle positioning and detection tool to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0027] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1 - Figure 6 The tool shown includes a test bench 1 and a spindle positioning frame 2 mounted on the test bench 1 for fixing the spindle. The spindle positioning frame 2 is used to fix the spindle. A motor drives the spindle to rotate on the spindle positioning frame 2, which facilitates the radial runout detection of the spindle. The motor is not shown in the figure. The motor and the spindle positioning frame 2 are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here. An arc-shaped test plate 3 is rotatably mounted on one side of the upper end of the test bench 1. A closed plate 5 is fixed to one end of the arc-shaped test plate 3, and an open plate 6 is fixed to the other end of the arc-shaped test plate 3. One end of the closed plate 5 abuts against the surface of the test bench 1, so that the closed plate 5 is in use. The included angle between the closed plate 5 and the open plate 6 is set at 130°. When the arc-shaped test plate 3 is opened, the open plate 6 contacts the arc-shaped test plate 3.

[0028] Multiple arc-shaped grooves 7 are provided through both the upper and lower ends of the arc-shaped detection plate 3. A slider 8 is movably mounted inside the arc-shaped groove 7. A movable rod 12 is movably mounted inside the slider 8. A dial indicator 4 for detecting the spindle is fixed at the end of the movable rod 12. The contact of the dial indicator 4 abuts against the outer surface of the spindle to perform radial runout detection. The display surfaces of the multiple dial indicators 4 all face one end, making it easy for the operator to observe the dial indicators 4. Limiting strips 9 are fixed at the corners of the slider 8. One side of the limiting strip 9 abuts against the outer side of the arc-shaped detection plate 3.

[0029] The operator controls the movable lever 12, which slides in the arc groove 7 via the slider 8, causing multiple dial gauges 4 to unfold in a fan shape. This makes it easier for the operator to observe multiple dial gauges 4, allowing for simultaneous detection of multiple step shafts and easy observation of the test values.

[0030] The slider 8 has a locking groove 10 on its inner side, and a cam 11 is rotatably provided on the inner side of the locking groove 10. A rubber ring is fitted on the outer side of the cam 11, and the outer side of the cam 11 abuts against the inner wall of the arc groove 7. The movable rod 12 moves through the cam 11. After the position of the dial indicator 4 is set, the cam 11 is rotated so that the outer side of the cam 11 abuts against the inner wall of the arc groove 7 to fix the position of the slider 8.

[0031] When the extension distance of the movable rod 12 needs to be controlled, a rectangular groove 13 is provided on the inner side of the cam 11, and a locking block 15 is movably provided on the inner side of the rectangular groove 13. A spring 14 is fixedly provided at the end of the locking block 15, and the end of the spring 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rectangular groove 13. Multiple locking slots 16 are provided on the outer side of the movable rod 12. The end of the locking block 15 is tapered, and the cross-section of the locking slot 16 is triangular. The locking block 15 abuts against the inner side of the corresponding locking slot 16.

[0032] When the movable rod 12 needs to continue moving toward the main shaft, rotate the movable rod 12 to disengage the slot 16 and the block 15, thereby releasing the limit of the block 15 and the slot 16, and then press down the movable rod 12. When it is necessary to lift the movable rod 12, simply lift it up.

[0033] Both sides of the upper end of the cam 11 are provided with limiting grooves 17. Two rotating bars 18 are fixed on the outer side of the movable rod 12. The rotating bars 18 are located inside the corresponding limiting grooves 17. When the cam 11 is rotated, the movable rod 12 is rotated to drive the cam 11 to rotate. The movable rod 12 is engaged in the limiting groove 17 through the rotating bars 18, which can then drive the cam 11 to rotate, so that the cam 11 is engaged in the arc-shaped inner side, and then the length of the extended movable rod 12 can be adjusted.
