Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to clamping fixtures, specifically to an automatic clamping fixture for a gear oil slinger. Background Technology

[0002] Gears are core transmission components in automobiles. The quality of their machining directly affects the vibration, noise, and reliability of the automobile assembly and even the whole vehicle, and sometimes becomes a key factor restricting the improvement of product level.

[0003] Cooling oil is typically used during gear manufacturing. Therefore, after gear manufacturing is complete, some cooling oil remains on the gear. This residual cooling oil can be removed using a gear oil slinger for recycling and environmental protection.

[0004] When the machined gears are installed on the gear oil slinger, they need to be clamped in order to sling oil. However, gears come in a variety of sizes, and the existing clamping fixtures are only suitable for one size of gear. This requires different oil slingers for each size of gear, which undoubtedly increases the cost of cooling oil recovery. Utility Model Content

[0010] The pressure cap is pressed onto the top of the third cylinder and each of the throwing blocks.

[0011] Furthermore, the number of the block-slinging components is M sets, where M≥2;

[0012] The outer diameter of the outer surface formed by all the swing blocks in each set of swing block assemblies is different, which is used to adapt to the inner wall of the gear to be clamped of different sizes.

[0013] Furthermore, the bottom of the pressure cap is provided with N downwardly protruding positioning bosses;

[0014] The N positioning protrusions are respectively embedded between two adjacent swing blocks.

[0015] Furthermore, the pressure cap is press-fitted to the top of the third cylinder and each of the throwing blocks by clamping bolts;

[0016] The third cylinder is provided with a first threaded hole along its axial direction;

[0017] The pressure cap has a through hole in the center;

[0018] The clamping bolt passes through the through hole and is connected to the first threaded hole.

When the gear to be clamped and the automatic clamping fixture rotate at high speed, the sling block moves radially to both ends of the positioning seat under centrifugal force, thereby automatically clamping the gear. Its structure is ingenious and can reliably clamp the gear to be clamped.

[0028] 2. The present invention provides an automatic clamping fixture for a gear oil slinger, which can replace the slinger blocks of different sizes according to the different sizes of the gears to be clamped, making it applicable to gears of various sizes and able to clamp gears of different sizes, thus expanding the application range of the automatic clamping fixture and greatly reducing the cost of cooling oil recovery.

[0042] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0043] This utility model provides an automatic clamping fixture for a gear oil slinger, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a positioning seat 1, a throwing block assembly, and a pressure cap 3;

[0044] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the positioning seat 1 has a cylindrical stepped structure, including a first cylinder 11, a second cylinder 12, and a third cylinder 13 whose outer diameters decrease sequentially from bottom to top. A first-level stepped surface 14 is formed between the first cylinder 11 and the second cylinder 12, and a second-level stepped surface 15 is formed between the second cylinder 12 and the third cylinder 13. For connection and fixation with external machine tools and equipment, the first cylinder 11 has multiple mounting holes 111 for mounting the positioning seat 1 on the oil slinger. The second cylinder 12 has countersunk holes 121 corresponding to each mounting hole 111. An annular guide boss 16 is provided around the third cylinder 13 on the second-level stepped surface 15. The width of the annular guide boss 16 is 2mm; the center of the annular guide boss 16 is located on the axis of the positioning seat 1. Weight-reducing holes 17 are provided at the centers of both the first cylinder 11 and the second cylinder 12.

[0045] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the number of swing block assemblies is M, where M≥1; the specific value of M can be selected according to the size of the gear 4 to be clamped. The number of swing block assemblies is equal to the number of different sizes of gears 4 to be clamped. Each swing block assembly includes N swing blocks 2, and each swing block 2 is set on the secondary step surface 15 around the third cylinder 13; N≥1 and is a positive integer. In this embodiment, N=2 is preferred. In other embodiments, N can also take the values ​​3, 4, 5, etc. The outer surface formed by all swing blocks 2 is adapted to the inner wall of the gear 4 to be clamped; the outer diameter of the outer surface formed by all swing blocks 2 in each set of swing block assemblies is different. The bottom of each swing block 2 is provided with an arc-shaped guide groove 21 adapted to the annular guide boss 16. The groove width of the arc-shaped guide groove 21 is 4mm; the top edge of each swing block 2 is provided with a 60° chamfer.

[0046] like Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the pressure cap 3 is press-fitted to the top of the third cylinder 13 and each of the throwing blocks 2 by the clamping bolts 5. The bottom of the pressure cap 3 is provided with N downwardly protruding positioning bosses 31; the N positioning bosses 31 are respectively embedded between two adjacent throwing blocks 2. The third cylinder 13 is provided with a first threaded hole 131 along its axial direction; the pressure cap 3 is provided with a through hole 32 at its center; the clamping bolts 5 pass through the through hole 32 and are connected to the first threaded hole 131.

[0047] After processing is complete, turn off the motor button; the disc-shaped gear parts will then come to a standstill. Repeat the above steps to ensure effective oil removal.

[0048] Working principle: Place the gear 4 to be clamped on the positioning seat 1, start the motor of the oil slinger, and the high-speed motor drives the positioning seat 1 to rotate at high speed. This generates centrifugal force, causing the slinger block 2, under the constraint of the annular guide boss and the arc-shaped guide groove, to move radially along the positioning seat 1 to tighten the inner hole of the gear, thereby clamping the gear. The high-speed rotation of the gear causes the residual oil from gear processing to centrifugally move and be thrown off the gear for recycling, thus protecting the environment and saving processing costs. After processing is complete, turn off the motor. After the gear parts come to rest, repeat the above actions to ensure the oil slinging effect.

[0049] This disc-type gear oil slinger features a cleverly designed automatic clamping fixture, allowing for rapid changeovers. Only the slinging block 2 needs to be replaced for different gear sizes. This automatic clamping and releasing of the gears solves the problem of residual oil being slinged out from the gears on-site.

[0050] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
