[0002] The traction center pin is a crucial load-bearing component on multimodal transport vehicles. It's a large shaft-like part, nearly 3 meters long and weighing over 1 ton, with an annual demand of around 400 pieces. After lathe machining, it requires machining on a gantry machining center to create the head shape, multiple side countersunk holes, multiple threaded holes, and the tail's flat square and round holes. Current CNC milling techniques for large components like the traction center pin typically use temporary, simple fixtures. These fixtures are time-consuming and labor-intensive to adjust and align before machining, and their safety performance is poor. Furthermore, the center pin vibrates during CNC milling, and the simple fixtures cannot effectively fix it, resulting in strong vibrations that easily cause deviations, affecting machining accuracy. Often, post-processing repairs are needed to improve accuracy and meet technical requirements, leading to low machining efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0026] To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the present disclosure is further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and drawings.

[0027] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in one or more embodiments of the present disclosure should be understood as the general meaning understood by those skilled in the art to which the present disclosure belongs.

The terms "up", "down", "left", "right" and the like only represent relative positional relationships, and when the absolute positions of the described objects change, the relative positional relationships may also change accordingly.

[0028] In order to facilitate the understanding of the traction center pin number milling positioning tool provided by the embodiments of the present application, first of all, the application scenario of the traction center pin is explained. The traction center pin is an important force receiving component on a multi-modal integrated vehicle. It is a large shaft part with a length of about 3 meters and a weight of more than 1 ton. The annual demand is about 400 pieces. After being machined on a lathe, the head shape, multiple side counterbores, multiple threaded holes, tail flat square and circular hole need to be machined on a gantry machining center. In the prior art, the traction center pin is usually machined by using a temporary simple tool for clamping. This temporary simple tool is time-consuming and laborious to adjust and align before machining, and has poor safety performance. In addition, the center positioning pin will vibrate during the numerical control milling process. Due to the fixation of the simple tool, the machining requirement cannot be met, the vibration is strong, and deviation is prone to occur, which affects the machining precision. Therefore, the traction center pin numerical control milling positioning tool provided by the present application precisely positions the center pin by using the positioning tool, ensures high stability, and meets the numerical control milling precision requirement.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 As shown in Figure 1 The structure of the center pin is shown in the figure. As can be seen from Figure 1 The center pin 100 of the semi-finished product has two stepped parts, namely the first stepped part 120 and the second stepped part 130. The head of the center pin 100 is the pin head part 110. The overall volume is large, and the pin column is circular in shape. The positioning and correction of the simple tool is time-consuming and laborious. In addition, after the positioning standard is not met, the vibration generated during the machining process is easy to cause the center pin 100 to loosen, which affects the machining precision. Therefore, the traction center pin 100 numerical control milling positioning tool in the present application has a simple positioning and correction operation, the adjustment range is more extensive, and the positioning and machining effect is excellent.

[0030] Specific reference Figure 2 As shown in Figure 3 The traction center pin numerical control milling positioning tool provided by the present application includes a tool platform 200 for positioning the center pin 100. The tool platform 200 is used as the bearing body in the present application and is made of steel. It is assembled in the numerical control milling workshop to ensure high stability.

[0031] A positioning plate 400 is slidably mounted on the tooling platform 200. This positioning plate 400 uses a sliding assembly method, allowing for a wide adjustment range. The positioning plate 400 is a calibrated rectangular plate, and the center pin 100 does not require further calibration after being mounted on it. Specifically, when the positioning plate 400 is slidably mounted on the tooling platform 200, a through-slot 210 is formed along the length of the tooling platform 200, and the positioning plate 400 is slidably mounted on the through-slot 210. This provides a large adjustment range. Multiple through-slots 210 are evenly spaced along the width of the tooling platform 200. This results in higher compatibility and a wider adjustment range. Each through-slot 210 is a T-shaped groove, providing a high degree of limiting sliding effect. The positioning plate 400 is slidably connected to at least two through-slots 210 and can be locked in any position. This effectively prevents the impact of vibrations during processing and ensures processing accuracy. The bottom of the positioning plate 400 is equipped with multiple T-shaped sliders, each of which is slidably connected to the corresponding through-mount slot 210. The manufacturing process is simple. Multiple top screw lifting eyelets 420, which can pass through the T-shaped sliders, are rectangularly distributed on the positioning plate 400. This achieves positioning while ensuring lifting capability.

[0032] As can be seen from the above structure, by installing a T-shaped sliding groove at the bottom of the positioning plate 400 and matching the through assembly groove 210 for sliding connection, and by using the top screw lifting ring 420 for positioning after positioning, or by using the weight of the center pin 100 itself without positioning, the positioning plate 400 can also be positioned. In this application, the top screw lifting ring 420 is preferred for auxiliary positioning, thereby ensuring the stability of positioning and the overall effect is more significant.

[0033] When the cylindrical center pin 100 is fixedly installed on the positioning plate 400, the positioning plate 400 is provided with receiving blocks, and each receiving block is provided with a pressure plate assembly for pressing and fixing the stepped part of the center pin 100; specifically, the two receiving blocks are the first receiving block 410A and the second receiving block 410B, and both the first receiving block 410A and the second receiving block 410B are provided with V-shaped positioning grooves. The V-shaped positioning groove of the first receiving block 410A matches and limits the first stepped part 120, and the V-shaped positioning groove of the second receiving block 410B matches and limits the second stepped part 130, thereby accurately limiting the center pin 100.

[0034] In the process of pressing and fixing the center pin 100, the pressing plate assembly in the application comprises: opposite sliding rails 411 provided on the receiving block, connecting screws 412 slidingly assembled on the sliding rails 411, and a pressing plate 413 assembled between the two connecting screws 412; wherein the two connecting screws 412 are both threadedly connected with a nut member 414 for pressing and fixing the pressing plate 413. The center pin 100 is tightly fixed in the V-shaped positioning groove with a certain adjustment range.

[0035] In addition, a plurality of support adjustment columns 300 are slidingly assembled on the tool platform 200 in the application, and the plurality of support adjustment columns 300 support the pin head part 110 of the center pin 100. The support adjustment column 300 is provided at least two, and each support adjustment column 300 is a pair of wire lifting adjustment column bodies. The adjustment support range is more extensive.

[0036] In the application, the two stepped parts of the center pin 100 are matched and supported by the receiving block on the positioning plate 400, the overall adjustment and positioning are stable, the adjustment range is large, and the pin head part 110 of the center pin 100 is effectively supported by the support adjustment column 300, so that the overall stability is good, and the vibration of the workpiece during machining is eliminated; the workpiece is clamped, corrected, safe and fast, positioned accurately, and can be repeatedly used.
