Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining, and specifically discloses a cutting-rolling-shaping mold for automobile axle housing sleeve connecting ring. Background Technology
[0002] Among the main automotive axle housing structures currently on the market, one type uses a welded assembly method with sleeves spliced at both ends. This method offers higher material utilization and lower manufacturing costs. The structure consists of a steel plate stamping and welding forming the middle section of the axle housing, with seamless steel pipes welded to both ends for extension. A circular connecting ring is inserted into the inner circle between the two ends of the middle section and the sleeve ends. The function of the connecting ring is to ensure that the circular tubes at both ends of the middle section are concentric with the axle housing sleeves, prevent weld burn-through during welding of the circular tubes at both ends to the sleeves, and improve the connection strength between the middle section and the sleeves.
[0003] The traditional production method for connecting rings involves two processes. First, a single-point shearing machine is used for the initial material cutting, cutting the strip into small sections. Then, a rolling machine is used for the second process, rolling the connecting ring into a circle. After the rolling process, a straight section of approximately 20mm remains on both sides of the opening of the connecting ring, resulting in insufficient roundness of the outer circle. When the round tubes at both ends of the middle section of the bridge housing are joined to the sleeve, gaps exist in the contact area between the outer circle of the connecting ring and the inner circumference of the bridge housing and sleeve. This can easily lead to leakage of the weld pool during the circumferential welding of the bridge housing and sleeve, resulting in insufficient weld toe height and other quality issues.
[0004] In addition, the rolling machine has low production efficiency, making it difficult to achieve mass production and unable to meet actual production needs. Utility Model Content
