Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of machining tooling technology, specifically relating to a machining tooling for irregular holes in a thrust bearing plate. Background Technology
[0002] The thrust bearing plate is a crucial component of the exhaust gas turbocharger. It not only bears axial thrust and limits axial movement, but also lubricates the shaft components. As a stator, the thrust bearing plate is fixed to the bearing housing by two pins. These two pin holes on the thrust bearing plate also serve as positioning holes for many other machining processes; however, these pin holes are not cylindrical holes, but rather U-shaped holes with rounded corners, such as... Figure 1 As shown. If the hole is directly milled into an irregular shape (U-shaped groove), it will affect the positioning accuracy of other processes. Therefore, it is first drilled into a cylindrical hole, and the opening is milled after the other processes are completed. If the opening is milled on a single piece, the positioning fixture design is complicated, the clamping speed is slow, and the processing efficiency is low. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a machining fixture for irregular holes in thrust bearing plates, which can improve machining efficiency.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A machining fixture for irregular holes in a thrust bearing plate includes a positioning and fixing plate and a connecting shaft. One end of the connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the positioning and fixing plate, and the other end of the connecting shaft is connected to a fixing nut via a thread. A positioning shaft is fixedly connected to the positioning and fixing plate. A clamping shaft coaxially arranged with the connecting shaft is fixed on the positioning and fixing plate. An opening groove is provided on the side of the positioning and fixing plate.
[0006] The positioning shaft is threadedly connected to the positioning fixing plate.
[0007] It also includes a fixing washer, which is sleeved on the outside of the connecting shaft and located inside the fixing nut.
[0008] It also includes a fixing sleeve, which is sleeved on the outside of the connecting shaft and located inside the fixing nut.
[0009] The positioning and fixing plate has two opening grooves on its side.
[0010] It also includes a connecting cone sleeve, which is inserted into the clamping shaft, and the clamping shaft is provided with a corresponding cone; a connecting bolt is fixedly connected to the clamping shaft, and the connecting cone sleeve is fixed by the connecting bolt.

Detailed Implementation
[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0027] like Figure 1-8 As shown, a machining fixture for irregular holes in thrust bearing plates includes a positioning and fixing plate 1 and a connecting shaft 2. One end of the connecting shaft 2 is fixedly connected to the positioning and fixing plate 1, and the other end of the connecting shaft 2 is threadedly connected to a fixing nut 3. In use, multiple thrust bearing plates 19 are sequentially strung on the connecting shaft 2, and then the fixing nut 3 and the positioning and fixing plate 1 clamp each thrust bearing plate 19.
[0028] The bottom of the thrust bearing plate 19 has a flat surface, which is used as the positioning surface 21 in this fixture. The positioning shaft 4 is then fixedly connected to the positioning plate 1. When each thrust bearing plate 19 is strung on the connecting shaft 2, the outer surface of the positioning shaft 4 contacts the positioning surface 21, thereby achieving positioning.
[0029] A clamping shaft 5, coaxially arranged with the connecting shaft 2, is fixed on the positioning and fixing plate 1. The clamping shaft 5 is used to connect with the indexing chuck, that is, the clamping shaft 5 is clamped by the indexing chuck. An opening groove 6 is provided on the side of the positioning and fixing plate 1; the opening groove 6 can ensure that the milling cutter has enough machining space, thereby ensuring that the milling cutter can perform milling (machining U-shaped groove 20) on the last thrust bearing plate 19 located at the positioning and fixing plate 1.
[0030] Furthermore, the positioning shaft 4 and the positioning fixing plate 1 are preferably connected by a thread, with the positioning shaft 4 having a corresponding external thread and the positioning fixing plate 1 having a corresponding threaded hole.
[0031] Furthermore, to prevent the fixing nut 3 from damaging the thrust bearing plate 19 during the tightening process, a fixing washer 7 is also included. The fixing washer 7 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting shaft 2 and located inside the fixing nut 3.
[0032] Furthermore, in addition to using the fixing washer 7, a fixing sleeve 8 can also be used instead. Similarly, the fixing sleeve 8 is fitted over the connecting shaft 2 and located inside the fixing nut 3.
[0033] Furthermore, the thrust bearing plate 19 is designed with two U-shaped grooves 20; therefore, two corresponding open grooves 6 are provided on the side of the positioning and fixing plate 1. During machining, the indexing chuck is rotated to position the milling cutter above one of the open grooves 6 to machine the first U-shaped groove 20. After the first U-shaped groove 20 is machined, the indexing chuck is rotated again to position the milling cutter above the other open groove 6 to machine the second U-shaped groove 20.
[0034] Furthermore, it also includes a connecting tapered sleeve 9, which is inserted into the clamping shaft 5. The clamping shaft 5 is provided with a corresponding cone 10, and the connecting tapered sleeve 9 is provided with a corresponding tapered hole. A connecting bolt 11 is fixedly connected to the clamping shaft 5. The connecting bolt 11 passes through the connecting tapered sleeve 9 and is threadedly connected to the clamping shaft 5. The connecting tapered sleeve 9 can be fixed by tightening the connecting bolt 11.
[0035] With the above structural setup, the indexing chuck clamps the connecting cone sleeve 9; when too many are clamped, causing indentations on the connecting cone sleeve 9, the connecting bolt 11 can be removed and a new connecting cone sleeve 9 can be replaced.
[0036] Furthermore, during the aforementioned processing, one end of the entire assembly is suspended in mid-air; it can be supported using a small jack as needed, thereby increasing the overall rigidity. Of course, the following structural configuration is preferred:
[0037] It also includes a support assembly 12; the support assembly 12 includes a magnetic base 13 and a support base 14, the support base 14 being connected to the magnetic base 13; a support sleeve 15 is rotatably connected to the support base 14, and a connection hole 16 on the support sleeve 15 is inserted into the fixing nut 3.
[0038] In use, after clamping the clamping shaft 5 with the indexing chuck, insert the support sleeve 15 into the fixing nut 3; then, use the magnetic base 13 to attach the support assembly 12 to the machine tool for support. At the same time, the support sleeve 15 is rotatably connected to the support base 14, so the support sleeve 15 will not rotate in response to the rotation of the indexing chuck during the machining process.
[0039] Furthermore, the support base 14 and the magnetic base 13 are slidably connected, which can be achieved by the guide rod 17. One end of the guide rod 17 passes through the support base 14 and is fixedly connected to the magnetic base 13, and the guide rod 17 and the support base 14 are slidably connected. A protrusion is provided at the upper end of the guide rod 17 to prevent the support base 14 from sliding off the guide rod 17.
[0040] An adjusting screw 18 is threaded onto the magnetic base 13. The upper surface of the adjusting screw contacts the bottom of the support base 14, thus supporting the support base 14 by adjusting the adjusting screw 18. By rotating the adjusting screw 18, its extension length can be changed, thereby fine-tuning the height of the support base 14.
[0041] The above description only describes the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments.
