[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a rapid gear alignment device, including a main body component 1, on which a gear positioning component 2 and a gear shaft positioning component 3 are mounted. The gear positioning component 2 is located directly above the gear shaft positioning component 3, and a snap-fit ​​component 4 is provided on the gear shaft positioning component 3.

[0028] The gear positioning assembly 2 includes a sliding plate 21, a hydraulic tailstock 22, a hydraulic ejector pin 23, and a gear 27. The sliding plate 21 is disposed on the main body assembly 1, the hydraulic tailstock 22 is mounted on the sliding plate 21, the hydraulic ejector pin 23 is mounted on the telescopic end of the hydraulic tailstock 22, and the gear 27 is disposed on the hydraulic ejector pin 23.

[0029] The gear shaft positioning assembly 3 includes a connecting plate 34, a gear shaft 36, a drive motor 37, a pressing block 38, and a support member 39. The connecting plate 34 is disposed on the main body assembly 1, the support member 39 is mounted on the connecting plate 34, the drive motor 37 is mounted on the support member 39, the pressing block 38 is mounted on the output end of the drive motor 37, the gear shaft 36 is disposed on the support member 39, and the pressing block 38 engages the gear shaft 36 downwards.

[0030] Gear 27 is positioned directly above gear shaft 36, which has a hollowed-out center.

[0031] Specifically, when aligning gear 27 and gear shaft 36, gear shaft 36 can be frozen at -40 degrees Celsius for at least 24 hours. During this time, it can be clamped by pressing block 38 and support member 39, preventing gear shaft 36 from deflecting during subsequent alignment. Then, gear 27 is heated at 230 degrees Celsius for 3 hours and placed on placement plate 26. This effectively saves time during overall assembly and restricts the orientation of gear 27 beforehand, preventing incorrect installation. During alignment, the hydraulic tailstock 22 can be activated, causing the hydraulic ejector pin 23 to extend and retract, thus moving gear 27 slightly up and down. This slight up and down movement serves as the mounting of gear 27 onto gear shaft 36. In use, the overall position of the sliding plate 21 can be adjusted to allow the gear 27 to descend slowly, thereby allowing the gear positioning component 2 and the gear shaft positioning component 3 to slowly come into contact. This shortens the distance between the gear 27 and the gear shaft 36, facilitating subsequent gear alignment. During gear alignment, the drive motor 37 is placed on the support 39. The drive motor 37 is then started to rotate the pressing block 38. When the pressing block 38 rotates to directly above the gear shaft 36, it will press down on the gear shaft 36, thus stabilizing its position. The gear shaft 36 is hollow inside, allowing the hydraulic ejector pin 23 to pass through it, facilitating the subsequent installation of the gear 27 onto the gear shaft 36.

[0032] In this embodiment, the main component 1 includes a base 11, a tooling quick change part 13, a bracket 14 and a track 15. The bracket 14 is installed on the base 11, and both the tooling quick change part 13 and the bracket 14 are installed on the bracket 14. The track 15 is located above the tooling quick change part 13, and the sliding plate 21 is slidably disposed on the track 15.

[0033] Specifically, in actual use, the base 11 allows the device to be set up stably, and by setting a bracket 14 on the base 11 and installing a track 15 on the bracket 14, the sliding plate 21 can slide on the track 15, thereby enabling the sliding plate 21 to move stably. In addition, a tooling quick change point 13 is set on the bracket 14, which facilitates the quick change of tooling when completing the subsequent gear setting operation.

[0034] In this embodiment, the main component 1 also includes a servo motor 12 and a lead screw 16. The lead screw 16 is mounted on the bracket 14 and is threadedly connected to the sliding plate 21. The servo motor 12 is mounted on the base 11 and the output end of the servo motor 12 is connected to the lead screw 16.

[0035] Specifically, in order to enable the sliding plate 21 to move up and down during use, the lead screw 16 can be threadedly connected to the sliding plate 21, and a servo motor 12 is set on the base 11. The output end of the servo motor 12 is connected to the lead screw 16, so that the lead screw 16 can be rotated, thereby controlling the lifting and lowering of the sliding plate 21.

[0036] In this embodiment, the gear positioning assembly 2 further includes a mounting plate 24, a fixing member 25, and a placement plate 26. The mounting plate 24 is disposed on the sliding plate 21, the fixing member 25 is mounted on the mounting plate 24, the placement plate 26 is mounted on the fixing member 25, and the gear 27 is placed on the placement plate 26.

[0037] Specifically, when positioning the gear 27, a mounting plate 24 can be slidably mounted on the sliding plate 21, and a fixing member 25 can be mounted on the mounting plate 24. A placement plate 26 can be rotatably mounted on the fixing member 25. At this time, the gear 27 can be placed on the placement plate 26, so that the gear 27 can be stably positioned. When performing gear setting operations, the placement plate 26 can be rotated to release the placement of the gear 27, and the gear 27 can then be mounted on the gear shaft 36.

[0038] In this embodiment, the gear shaft positioning assembly 3 further includes a positioning auxiliary component 31, a hydraulic chuck 32, a connecting ring 33, and a limiting device 35. There are two limiting devices 35, and both limiting devices 35 are installed on the connecting plate 34. The connecting ring 33 is located between the two limiting devices 35. The hydraulic chuck 32 is located on the connecting ring 33, and the positioning auxiliary component 31 is located on the hydraulic chuck 32.

[0039] Specifically, during gear setting, the gear 27 can be fixedly engaged by the positioning auxiliary component 31. During gear setting, the angle of the gear 27 can be adjusted by rotating the positioning auxiliary component 31, thus facilitating the gear setting operation. In use, the positioning auxiliary component 31 can be placed on the hydraulic chuck 32, and the hydraulic chuck 32 can be connected to the connecting ring 33. The connecting ring 33 is placed between the two limiting devices 35. After the angle of the gear 27 is determined, the angle of the connecting ring 33 can be limited by the two connecting plates 34, thereby preventing the gear 27 from deflecting.

[0040] In this embodiment, the support member 39 includes a support portion 391 and a placement portion 392. The support portion 391 is mounted on the connecting plate 34, the placement portion 392 is mounted on the support portion 391, and the gear shaft 36 is placed on the placement portion 392.

[0041] Specifically, in order to facilitate the placement of the gear shaft 36 during use, a placement part 392 is provided on the support part 391. By placing the gear shaft 36 on the placement part 392, it is easier to position the gear shaft 36 subsequently.

[0042] In this embodiment, the snap-fit ​​assembly 4 includes a telescopic tailstock 41, a telescopic component 42, a mounting rod 43, and a snap-fit ​​rod 44. The mounting rod 43 is mounted on the support portion 391, the telescopic tailstock 41 is mounted on the mounting rod 43, the telescopic component 42 is mounted on the telescopic end of the telescopic tailstock 41, and the snap-fit ​​rod 44 is mounted on the telescopic component 42. The snap-fit ​​rod 44 penetrates and extends out of the surface of the support portion 391.

[0043] Specifically, when positioning the gear shaft 36, the telescopic tailstock 41 can drive the telescopic component 42 to extend and retract, thereby controlling the extension and retraction of the locking rod 44. At this time, the locking rod 44 is inserted into the tooth gap of the gear shaft 36, thereby limiting the angle of the gear shaft 36 and preventing the angle of the gear shaft 36 from deflecting during subsequent positioning.

[0044] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When performing gear matching operations on gear 27 and gear shaft 36, gear 27 can first be placed on hydraulic ejector pin 23 and positioned by placement plate 26. Gear shaft 36 can be placed on support member 39 and positioned by pressing block 38. Then, servo motor 12 can be started to drive gear 27 to move slowly. When gear 27 is moved directly above gear shaft 36, hydraulic tailstock 22 can be started to set gear 27 on gear shaft 36. Then, the angle of gear 27 can be adjusted by positioning auxiliary member 31. After adjusting to a suitable position, the angle is fixed by limiting device 35, and then gear matching operations can be performed.

[0045] The electronic components and modules used in this utility model can all be parts that are commonly used in the market and can achieve the specific functions in this case. The specific models and sizes can be selected and adjusted according to actual needs.

[0046] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model.
