The present application is further described with reference to the drawings and embodiments:

[0029] As shown in Figures 1 to 5 Fig. 1, a mouth clamp for machining the rear hub of the rear axle of an automobile comprises an upper die 1 for finish machining the rear hub, a lower die 5 for finish machining the rear hub, and a fixing nut 7,

[0030] The upper die 1 for finish machining the rear hub is integrally formed and comprises a limiting part 2, a mounting part 3, and a threaded part 4. The upper die 1 for finish machining the rear hub is connected to a lathe (not shown in the figure).

[0031] The limiting part 2 is in close contact with the conical surface of the first bearing shell.

[0032] The lower die 5 for finish machining the rear hub is provided with a through hole 6 matching the size of the mounting part 3, and is movably sleeved on the mounting part 3 and in close contact with the conical surface of the second bearing shell.

[0033] The fixing nut 7 is in threaded cooperation with the threaded part 4 and in contact with the lower die 5 for finish machining the rear hub, so that the rear hub is accurately and stably defined on the upper die 1 for finish machining the rear hub (specifically, the end face of the fixing nut 7 is less than or equal to 0.015 mm in perpendicularity relative to the center).

[0034] Further refinement of the embodiment of the present application also includes a finish machining rear hub sleeve 8, which is provided with a through hole 9 matching the size of the threaded part 4 and is movably sleeved on the threaded part 4 and between the lower die 5 for finish machining the rear hub and the fixing nut 7. The finish machining rear hub sleeve 8 is less than or equal to 0.015 mm in perpendicularity relative to the center at both end faces.

[0035] The gap between the fine turning rear hub upper die 1 and the fine turning rear hub lower die 5 after combination is less than or equal to 0.07mm, further, the length of the fine turning rear hub lower die 5 is 30-32mm, preferably, the length of the fine turning rear hub lower die 5 is 30mm so as to facilitate installation and accurate fixing of the rear hub.

[0036] Further optimization of the above embodiment, the fine turning rear hub upper die 1, the fine turning rear hub lower die 5 and the fine turning rear hub sleeve 8 are all made of Cr12 alloy steel and have a quenched and tempered hardness of HRC50-55.

[0037] The working process of the utility model is as follows:

[0038] Firstly, the rear hub is passed through the fine turning rear hub upper die 1 from right to left, and when the limiting portion 2 accurately abuts against the conical surface of the first bearing shell and is in close contact, the horizontal position of the rear hub is defined, then the fine turning rear hub lower die 5 is sleeved on the mounting portion 3 and is in accurate contact with the conical surface of the second bearing shell, when the fine turning rear hub upper die 1 and the fine turning rear hub lower die 5 accurately cooperate with the conical surfaces of the two bearing shells, the fixed nut 7 is rotated to make the fixed nut 7 contact with the fine turning rear hub lower die 5, and then the rear hub is defined on the fine turning rear hub upper die 1.

[0039] On this basis, by additionally arranging the fine turning rear hub sleeve 8, the movement range of the fixed nut 7 can be shortened, and the accurate and firm positioning of the rear hub on the tooling can be completed without entering the rear hub;

[0040] Then the fine turning machining of the half shaft mounting surface, the brake drum mounting surface and the brake drum mounting stopper of the rear hub can be carried out, it should be noted that the oil seal mounting hole, the bearing mounting hole, the half shaft mounting surface, the brake drum mounting surface and the brake drum mounting stopper of the rear hub are machined at one time, but the half shaft mounting surface, the brake drum mounting surface and the brake drum mounting stopper have a fine turning allowance of 0.5mm;

[0041] When the bearing shell is accurately defined as the reference to define the position of the rear hub and the above three regions are fine turned, the perpendicularity of the half shaft mounting surface relative to the two bearing shells is less than or equal to 0.05mm (originally 0.2mm), the oil leakage three-pack rate of the end surface is reduced from 1.8% to 0.06%, and the oil leakage three-pack rate is significantly reduced, thereby greatly reducing the hidden trouble of oil leakage in the subsequent rear axle operation process;

[0042] At the same time, the brake drum mounting surface jump amount is reduced from 0.15mm to 0.05mm, the perpendicularity of the brake drum mounting stopper relative to the two bearing shells is reduced from 0.15mm to 0.05mm, and the brake drum mounting stopper jump amount is reduced from 0.2mm to 0.1mm, thereby the jump amount after the brake drum is mounted is also significantly reduced;

[0043] In summary, compared with the original turning accuracy, the machining perpendicularity and the runout between the rear hub mounting surface, the brake drum mounting surface and the brake drum mounting stopper and the bearing shell are effectively reduced and meet the production requirements without exceeding the tolerance after the rear hub is accurately fixed by taking the bearing shell as the reference and then the rear axle mounting surface, the brake drum mounting surface and the brake drum mounting stopper are precisely machined, so that the probability of the half axle fracture in the subsequent rear axle operation process is greatly reduced, the service life of the rear axle is effectively prolonged, and the turning effect in the rear hub production and machining process is significantly improved.

[0044] The basic principle, main features and advantages of the present application are shown and described above. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present application is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions in the specification are only to illustrate the principle of the present application.
