Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of crankshaft machining technology, specifically to an auxiliary chip removal device for machining inclined oil holes in crankshafts. Background Technology
[0002] In actual production practice, cutting fluid pump pressure is often used to remove iron filings from deep holes. However, this pressure is clearly insufficient when machining crankshaft inclined oil holes. For example, in patent application number 201610563510.9, entitled "A Crankshaft Oil Hole Structure and Machining Method for Improving the Torsional Fatigue Strength of Crankshafts," an inclined oil hole is drilled one by one on each crank arm through a guide. The inclined oil hole penetrates the crank arm and is located on the plane jointly determined by the axial center lines of the connecting rod journal and the main journal, connecting the main journal straight oil hole and the connecting rod straight oil hole. The special structure and machining requirements of the crankshaft inclined oil hole make it difficult for the cutting fluid pump pressure to effectively remove iron filings. Poor chip removal is very likely to occur, and once this happens, it will have serious consequences. For example, the gun drill may break due to blockage by iron filings, and the broken gun drill may also scratch the hole wall, causing quality problems. Such a result clearly cannot meet actual usage needs, and will not only affect the product's performance and lifespan, but may also lead to delays in production schedules and increased costs.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] This embodiment proposes an auxiliary chip removal device for machining inclined oil holes in crankshafts, such as... Figures 1 to 5As shown, it includes a compressed air connector 2 fixedly connected to the center of the pressure plate 1. The compressed air connector 2 passes through the pressure plate 1 and is integrally connected to an exhaust pipe 3. When drilling the inclined oil hole of the crankshaft, the exhaust pipe 3 is inserted into the straight oil hole of the crankshaft and fixed by clamping it to the circumference of the crankshaft through the pressure plate 1. The compressed air connector 2 is connected to an external air compressor. The compressed air generated by the air compressor enters the inclined oil hole through the straight oil hole of the crankshaft. The strong pressure of the compressed air and the cutting fluid pressure of the machine tool itself work together to form a strong chip removal force, so that the chips can be smoothly discharged from the inclined oil hole of the crankshaft. It should be noted that, according to the crankshaft machining process, the straight oil hole on the main journal and the oblique oil hole on the connecting rod journal are generally drilled separately using a gun drill. However, it is essential to ensure that at least one-third of the cross-section of the two oil holes is connected inside the crankshaft. Therefore, the use of this device for chip removal from the oblique oil hole is conditional. The condition is that the straight oil hole of the crankshaft has been machined. Then, with the help of the main journal straight oil hole (located in the middle area of the entire oblique oil hole), after the oblique oil hole and the main journal straight oil hole are connected, compressed air is forced into the straight oil hole to work with the cutting fluid to complete the chip removal, thus avoiding chip removal difficulties caused by the oblique oil hole being machined to be too long or too deep.
[0024] In actual operation, the crankshaft model is different and its diameter is also different. In order to make the device applicable to the processing of crankshafts of different specifications, this embodiment preferably sets the pressure plate 1 as a flexible structure, specifically a thin rubber plate.
[0025] Furthermore, the initial size of the oil holes on the crankshaft will also be different. After the compressed air enters the straight oil hole, the exhaust pipe 3 and the straight oil hole need to have good sealing performance. Based on the above considerations, in this embodiment, the exhaust pipe 3 is a tapered structure with a larger top and a smaller bottom to accommodate straight oil holes of different diameters.
[0026] After the exhaust pipe 3 is inserted into the straight oil hole, the first thing to consider is the firmness of the connection between the exhaust pipe 3 and the straight oil hole. This is directly related to whether the compressed air can enter the straight oil hole normally. The reliability of the connection between the exhaust pipe 3 and the straight oil hole depends entirely on the pressure plate 1. Therefore, in this embodiment, flexible connecting strips 4 are integrally formed and connected to both ends of the pressure plate 1 along its length. The width of the flexible connecting strips 4 is smaller than that of the pressure plate 1. After the entire pressure plate 1 is clamped on the circumferential surface of the crankshaft, it is fixed by connecting the ends of the two flexible connecting strips 4.
[0027] Specifically, the ends of the two flexible connecting strips 4 are respectively connected to a first mating plate 5 and a second mating plate 6. The center of the first mating plate 5 is integrally connected to a threaded tube 9, while the center of the second mating plate 6 is rotatably connected to a threaded rod 7. Two limiting rings 13 are fixed at the position where the threaded rod 7 connects to the second mating plate 6 on its circumference. The threaded rod 7 is limited by the two limiting rings 13 and the second mating plate 6 in the axial direction of the threaded rod 7. The threaded rod 7 can be threadedly connected to the threaded tube 9 on the first mating plate 5. When it is necessary to fix the compressed air connector 2 or the exhaust pipe 3, the ends of the two flexible connecting strips 4 are pulled close to each other on the crankshaft, and then the threaded rod 7 and the threaded tube 9 are aligned. The operating lever 14 at the tail of the threaded rod 7 is used to drive it to rotate. Through the thread action, the first mating plate 5 and the second mating plate 6 can be driven to move towards each other, so that the pressure plate 1 is firmly clamped on the surface of the crankshaft, and the compressed air connector 2 or the exhaust pipe 3 can be fixed at the same time.
[0028] Furthermore, since the pressure plate 1 is applicable to crankshafts of different specifications, the distance between the first mating plate 5 and the second mating plate 6 must be adjustable. Therefore, in this embodiment, the second mating plate 6 is fixedly connected to the flexible connecting strip 4, while the first mating plate 5 is slidably connected to the flexible connecting strip 4. The first mating plate 5 can also remain relatively stationary with the flexible connecting strip 4 through a limiting and pressing structure. The position of the first mating plate 5 on the flexible connecting strip 4 is adjusted according to the diameter of the crankshaft. After the position is adjusted appropriately, the first mating plate 5 must also remain relatively stationary with the flexible connecting strip 4 to ensure that the pressure plate 1 is clamped on the surface of the crankshaft.
[0029] A sliding sleeve 10 is slidably mounted on the outside of the flexible connecting strip 4. The first mating plate 5 is fixedly connected to the sliding sleeve 10. A pressing plate 11 is rotatably mounted on the side of the sliding sleeve 10 facing away from the first mating plate 5. The inner surface of the pressing plate 11 is evenly covered with protrusions 12. The sliding sleeve 10, the pressing plate 11, and the protrusions 12 cooperate to form a limiting pressing structure. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the first mating plate 5 on the flexible connecting strip 4, the pressing plate 11 is opened, and all the protrusions 12 disengage from the flexible connecting strip 4. At this time, the sliding sleeve 10 can be positioned relative to the flexible connecting strip 4. After the strip 4 slides and the adjustment is completed, the extrusion plate 11 presses against the sliding sleeve 10. All the protrusions 12 can extrude on the flexible connecting strip 4, thereby increasing the friction between the flexible connecting strip 4 and the extrusion plate 11. Since the opening direction of the extrusion plate 11 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the sliding sleeve 10, and the material setting at the point where the extrusion plate 11 contacts the sliding sleeve 10 during pressing makes the two have a large friction, the extrusion plate 11 will not easily open during the threaded connection of the threaded rod 7 and the threaded tube 9.
[0030] In addition, since the first docking plate 5 in this embodiment can slide relative to the flexible connecting strip 4, in order to prevent the first docking plate 5 from slipping off the flexible connecting strip 4, a limiting plate 8 is fixed at the end of the flexible connecting strip 4 to limit the first docking plate 5.
