Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aerospace machinery manufacturing technology, and in particular to a ventilation hole processing device. Background Technology

[0002] Due to the lower temperatures at high altitudes and the louder engine noise, aircraft fuselages require a large amount of sound-absorbing material to insulate against external heat and noise. This sound-absorbing material is made of a non-breathable, flexible, fire-resistant material wrapped with fiberglass and foam, playing a crucial role in ensuring aircraft safety.

[0003] During the processing of sound insulation cotton, ventilation holes, drainage holes, and cross grooves need to be machined at specified locations on the cotton. Furthermore, since the components on the machine body require high processing quality, the processing quality and surface quality of the sound insulation cotton must be guaranteed. In addition, because the sound insulation cotton is relatively thick, the perforating needles must have sufficient strength.

[0004] Existing tools for processing vent holes in sound insulation cotton directly attach the perforating needle to the handle. These tools have weak resistance to bending and deformation, making the needle tip prone to deformation, breakage, or complete detachment during use. This can scratch the sound insulation cotton, resulting in poor processing quality and low efficiency. Furthermore, the perforating needle is usually fixed by adhesive bonding, making it impossible to replace if damaged, rendering the tool unusable and increasing its cost. Utility Model Content

[0042] As shown in Figures 1-7 The present embodiment provides a ventilation hole processing device, which comprises a perforating needle 1, a fixing member 2 and a fixing handle 3. The fixing member 2 is provided with a stepped hole 21, the stepped hole 21 comprises a small-diameter section 211, a large-diameter section 212 and a stepped surface 213, the large-diameter section 212 is located on the side close to the fixing handle 3, the perforating needle 1 comprises a needle tip part 11 and a needle tail part 12 connected with each other, the diameter of the needle tail part 12 is larger than that of the needle tip part 11, the perforating needle 1 is arranged in the stepped hole 21 through one end of the large-diameter section 212, the inner diameter of the small-diameter section 211 matches the outer diameter of the needle tip part 11, which can limit the movement of the perforating needle 1 along its radial direction, improve the bending resistance of the perforating needle 1, and avoid deformation of the perforating needle 1 caused by excessive stress. The needle tip part 11 protrudes out of the stepped hole 21 to perforate the soundproof cotton. The first end of the needle tail part 12 abuts against the stepped surface 213, and the second end abuts against the fixing handle 3 to fix the perforating needle 1, which can avoid the whole needle from falling off. The fixing member 2 is detachably connected to the fixing handle 3, so that the perforating needle 1 can be replaced when it is damaged, and the ventilation hole processing tool can continue to be used, thereby reducing the cost of the ventilation hole processing tool. In addition, the fixing handle 3 is provided, which can facilitate the staff to hold the ventilation hole processing device during use and facilitate the placement after use. At the same time, the ventilation hole processing device has simple overall structure, safe and reliable operation, high processing efficiency and economic practicability.

[0043] Specifically, the inner diameter of the large-diameter section 212 matches the outer diameter of the needle tail part 12, so that the side wall of the needle tail part 12 is attached to the inner wall of the large-diameter section 212, which can improve the bending resistance of the needle tail part 12 and avoid deformation of the perforating needle 1 caused by excessive stress. The material of the fixing handle 3 is 6061-T651 aluminum alloy, which is relatively light in weight and avoids the ventilation hole processing device being too heavy to be operated. The material of the fixing member 2 is 45 steel, which has a hardness of HRC28-34 and a relatively high strength to resist the impact of the perforating needle 1 on the side wall of the stepped hole 21 during work. The fixing member 2 has a cylindrical structure.

[0044] Preferably, the ventilation hole processing device further comprises a limiting piece 4, the limiting piece 4 is provided with a first groove 41, the needle tail part 12 partially extends the large diameter section 212 and is embedded in the first groove 41, the second end of the needle tail part 12 abuts against the groove bottom of the first groove 41, and the side of the limiting piece 4 away from the fixing piece 2 abuts against the fixing handle 3. By arranging the limiting piece 4, the impact of the needle tail part 12 on the fixing handle 3 during work can be resisted, and damage to the fixing handle 3 caused by excessive impact can be avoided.

[0045] Specifically, the limiting piece 4 is a cylindrical structure, and the diameter of the limiting piece 4 is the same as the diameter of the fixing piece 2. The limiting piece 4 is made of 45 steel, and the hardness is HRC 34-40. The limiting piece 4 has higher strength to resist the impact of the needle tail part 12 and avoid damage to the limiting piece 4. The cross section of the first groove 41 is circular, and the inner diameter of the first groove 41 matches the outer diameter of the needle tail part 12, so that the side wall of the needle tail part 12 is fitted with the inner wall of the first groove 41, which can improve the bending resistance of the needle tail part 12 and avoid deformation of the perforating needle 1 caused by excessive stress.

[0046] Preferably, the perforating needle 1, the stepped hole 21 and the first groove 41 are at least two, and the perforating needle 1, the stepped hole 21 and the first groove 41 correspond one by one. By arranging multiple perforating needles 1 to perforate the sound insulation cotton at the same time, the work efficiency is improved.

[0047] Specifically, in the embodiment, the perforating needle 1, the stepped hole 21 and the first groove 41 are provided with 13, the 13 stepped holes 21 are uniformly distributed on the fixing piece 2, the first grooves 41 are uniformly distributed on the limiting piece 4 and correspond to the stepped holes 21, and one perforating needle 1 is arranged in each stepped hole 21. In other embodiments, the number of the perforating needle 1, the stepped hole 21 and the first groove 41 can be set according to actual conditions.

[0048] Preferably, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 8 , the fixing handle 3 comprises a fixed part 31, the fixed part 31 is provided with a second groove 311, the limiting piece 4 and the fixing piece 2 are sequentially embedded in the second groove 311, the side of the limiting piece 4 away from the fixing piece 2 abuts against the groove bottom of the second groove 311, and the second groove 311 can limit the movement of the limiting piece 4 and the fixing piece 2 along the radial direction, facilitating the installation of the limiting piece 4 and the fixing piece 2.

[0049] Specifically, the fixed part 31 is a cubic structure, which is convenient for placing the ventilation hole processing device when not in use. The cross section of the second groove 311 is circular, and the inner diameter of the second groove 311 is the same as the diameter of the limiting piece 4 and the fixing piece 2, so that the side wall of the limiting piece 4 and the fixing piece 2 is fitted with the inner wall of the second groove 311, avoiding the movement of the limiting piece 4 and the fixing piece 2 along the radial direction.

[0050] Preferably, the end face of the fixing member 2 facing away from the limiting member 4 is located in the second groove 311. When perforating the sound insulation cotton, the end face of the fixing part 31 on one side of the second groove 311 contacts the sound insulation cotton. Since the end face of the fixing member 2 facing away from the limiting member 4 is located in the second groove 311, when the vent hole processing device is used to process the vent hole on the sound insulation cotton, there is a gap between the end face of the fixing member 2 facing away from the limiting member 4 and the sound insulation cotton. The fixing member 2 does not contact the sound insulation cotton, thus avoiding the sound insulation cotton debris generated during the working process from entering the stepped hole 21 and causing blockage.

[0051] Preferably, such as Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the bottom of the second groove 311 is provided with a first through hole 33, the fixing member 2 is provided with a threaded hole 22, the limiting member 4 is provided with a second through hole 42, and the screw 5 is sequentially inserted into the first through hole 33 and the second through hole 42 and threadedly connected to the threaded hole 22 to abut and fix the limiting member 4, the fixing member 2 and the fixing part 31.

[0052] Specifically, there are two screws 5, two through holes 33, two through holes 42, and two threaded holes 22, which are spaced apart. Each screw 5 corresponds to one other screw 33, through hole 42, and threaded hole 22. By using two screws 5, the stability of the connection between the limiting member 4, the fixing member 2, and the fixing part 31 can be improved, preventing the limiting member 4 and the fixing member 2 from rotating. The screw 5 can be M4×25.

[0053] Preferably, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4 and 7 As shown, a handheld part 32 is provided at the end of the fixed handle 3 facing away from the second groove 311, which facilitates the operator's handhold when using the ventilation hole processing device. Specifically, the handheld part 32 is a round rod structure. The extending direction of the handheld part 32 is the same as the extending direction of the perforating needle 1. The handheld part 32 and the fixed part 31 are integrally formed.

[0054] Preferably, such as Figure 4 As shown, a transition portion 13 is provided between the needle tip 11 and the needle tail 12. The outer diameter of the transition portion 13 gradually decreases along the direction of the needle tail 12 towards the needle tip 11, so as to avoid stress concentration at the connection between the needle tip 11 and the needle tail 12, which would cause the piercing needle 1 to break and extend the service life of the piercing needle 1.

[0055] Preferably, the needle tip angle of the needle tip 11 is in the range of 10°-30°, so that the piercing needle 1 has a better piercing effect. In this embodiment, the needle tip angle of the piercing needle 1 is 20°. In other embodiments, the needle tip angle of the piercing needle 1 can also be 10°, 15°, 25° or 30°, etc.

[0056] Preferably, the material of the perforating needle 1 is bearing steel, which has high strength, so that the perforating needle 1 is not easy to deform, and the service life of the perforating needle 1 is improved. In the embodiment, the material type of the perforating needle 1 is high-strength bearing steel GCr6.

[0057] The vent hole processing device can also be applied to perforation of other materials such as foam, sponge and the like.

[0058] In use, the first step is to place the sound insulation cotton to be processed on the workbench; the second step is to align the position to be processed of the sound insulation cotton by holding the hand-held part 32 of the vent hole processing device; the third step is to ensure that the axial direction of the perforating needle 1 is perpendicular to the sound insulation cotton, so as to avoid uneven force and damage to the perforating needle 1; the fourth step is to vertically downwardly exert force, pull out the vent hole processing device after the processing of the vent hole, and continue to process the next vent hole.

[0059] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present application are merely examples for clear illustration of the present application, and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present application. For those skilled in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustments and substitutions can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present application. It is unnecessary and impossible to enumerate all the embodiments. Any modification, equivalent substitution and improvement within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
