Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bearing housing turning technology, and in particular to a bearing housing turning fixture and processing device. Background Technology
[0002] Bearing housings are important components in mechanical equipment. (Refer to...) Figure 5 As shown, the bearing housing has a circular bearing mounting cavity in the center and four outwardly extending lugs around it, each with a circular mounting hole. This structure is used in most mechanical transmission systems. Its traditional manufacturing process mainly uses milling machines for milling, but milling is time-consuming and costly, making it difficult to meet the needs of mass production. In recent years, to optimize the production efficiency of bearing housings, the use of CNC lathes for turning has been considered.
[0003] In the existing technology, the turning of bearing housing is usually carried out using the traditional CNC lathe machining method, which directly clamps the outer circle of the bearing housing. However, since the bearing housing has an asymmetrical structure, it is easy for the bearing housing to fall off the fixture due to lateral force or uneven center of gravity during CNC lathe machining. In addition, the clamping part is not the solid part of the bearing housing, which can easily cause the bearing housing to deform during machining. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problem that the bearing housing is prone to detaching from the fixture during the turning process in the prior art, and to propose a bearing housing turning fixture.

[0011] Furthermore, the inner wall of the opening of the placement part is provided with a flared inclined surface, and the clamp is inclined near the outer wall of the placement part, with its inclination angle matching the inclined surface at the opening of the placement part.
[0012] Furthermore, adhesive is filled between several of the clips.
[0013] Furthermore, the shaft head assembly is also provided with a counterweight block, which is located on the placement part and fixedly connected to the placement part.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1-3 As shown, in the first aspect of the present invention, a bearing housing turning fixture is provided. In practical applications, it is used to clamp and fix the bearing housing on the lathe spindle during turning. It includes a spindle head assembly 1 and a collet 2 connected to the spindle head assembly 1.
[0036] Specifically, the spindle head assembly 1 is a hollow cylindrical structure with openings at both ends. The hollow part is the connecting part 11, and the two openings at both ends are the mounting part 12 and the placement part 13, respectively. The mounting part 12 is used to connect with the lathe spindle, and the placement part 13 is used to provide a plane for placing the bearing seat. The connecting part 11 is used to connect the mounting part 12 and the placement part 13 and provides a certain degree of flexibility to adapt to bearing seats of different lengths. Furthermore, the spindle head assembly is generally H-shaped, which is wider at both ends and narrower in the middle. This allows the connecting part 11 to provide sufficient area to connect with the lathe spindle, and the mounting part 12 to provide sufficient area for placing the bearing seat. In order to reduce the weight of the spindle head assembly 1, the middle connecting part 11 is narrower to improve the overall assemblability of the spindle head assembly 1.
[0037] The mounting part 12 has several connecting holes. Using a common bolt 132 connection method, the bolts 132 are threaded onto the lathe spindle through the connecting holes, thereby fixing the spindle head assembly 1 onto the lathe spindle. The end face of the opening of the placement part 13 is symmetrically provided with two countersunk holes. These two countersunk holes are positioning holes used to position the bearing seat during placement, preventing burrs on the bearing seat surface from affecting positioning. The inner wall of the opening of the placement part 13 is also provided with a flared inclined surface.
[0038] In some preferred embodiments, the spindle head assembly 1 adopts a one-piece molding structure to increase the spindle head assembly 1's resistance to deformation. For example, during high-speed turning, the machine tool's spindle will generate vibration and impact forces. Compared with a modular structure, the one-piece molding structure can better maintain machining accuracy.
[0039] The collet 2 is disposed in the hollow part of the shaft head assembly 1 and is movably connected to the shaft head assembly 1 with a clearance fit, thereby allowing the collet 2 to slide within the shaft head assembly 1. The collet 2 is used to clamp and fix the bearing seat. The collet 2 includes a collet body 21 and a chuck 22.
[0040] The cylindrical body 21 is disposed within the connecting portion 11 and is movably connected to the connecting portion 11. An annular protrusion is provided within the connecting portion 11. The protrusion is an abutment ring, which limits the sliding distance of the cylindrical body 21 when it slides within the connecting portion 11.
[0041] The cylindrical body 21 has several slits near the opening of the placement part 13. These slits are perpendicular to the end face of the placement part 13 and evenly divide the portion of the cylindrical body 21 near the opening of the placement part 13 into several clamping pieces. These clamping pieces form a clamp 22. The clamp 22 is inclined near the outer wall of the placement part 13, and its inclination angle matches the inclined surface of the opening of the placement part 13. The inner wall away from the placement part 13 is stepped with gradually increasing thickness from the end near the opening of the mounting part 12 to the end away from the opening of the mounting part 12. The stepped shape is a limiting ring, and the limiting ring matches the width of the bearing seat. It is used to abut against the bearing seat to restrict the bearing seat and prevent the bearing seat from deforming.
[0042] In this embodiment, since the chuck 22 needs to generate a certain amount of elastic deformation during operation to clamp the workpiece, the chuck 22 is made of spring steel, which has excellent elasticity. For example, in machining, when the chuck 22 clamps a cylindrical workpiece, the elasticity of the spring steel allows the chuck 22 to contract and rebound appropriately, thereby tightly holding the workpiece.
[0043] In this embodiment, after the bearing housing is installed into the cylinder body 21, the bearing housing abuts against the limiting ring. When the operator presses the bearing housing, the collet 2 moves within the shaft head assembly 1. Under the action of the inclined surface in the mounting part 12, the collet 22 contracts radially during sliding, thus fully enclosing and clamping the circular bearing mounting cavity in the middle of the bearing housing. Due to the weight of the bearing housing itself, the collet 22 cannot completely return to its original shape, but remains in a state that can stably clamp the bearing housing. This prevents the collet 22 from easily loosening without external force, thus preventing the bearing housing from moving during rotation. In this embodiment, by setting the shaft head assembly 1 and fixing it to the lathe spindle, and using the collet 22 in the collet 2 to clamp the bearing housing, the bearing housing is fixed and processed. This solves the technical problem of the bearing housing easily detaching from the fixture during turning, achieving a more stable clamping effect during bearing housing turning.
[0044] In some preferred embodiments, the end face of the chuck 22 is 0.3-0.5mm lower than the end face of the mounting part 12, which can avoid direct contact and friction between the end face of the chuck 22 and other parts during assembly and use, thereby reducing the wear of the chuck 22.
[0045] In this embodiment, both the shaft head assembly 1 and the collet 2 are provided with a plurality of discharge ports. The discharge ports are square openings and are evenly distributed at the center of the shaft head assembly 1 and the collet 2. During the turning of the bearing seat, the waste material is discharged through the discharge ports to avoid the waste material affecting the processing efficiency.
[0046] In some preferred embodiments, since there are gaps between the clamping pieces, in actual use, due to the gaps between the clamping pieces, under the action of cutting force during processing, the clamping pieces may experience slight displacement, leading to an increase in the radial runout of the part. Therefore, the gaps between the clamping pieces are filled with adhesive to reduce the possibility of displacement of the clamping pieces. For example, the adhesive is an anaerobic adhesive, which has good sealing performance and a certain strength, can effectively fill gaps and prevent loosening, and the cured anaerobic adhesive has a certain toughness and can withstand a certain degree of vibration and impact, so that the clamping pieces will not easily generate relative displacement when subjected to external force, thereby clamping the workpiece more stably.
[0047] In this embodiment, four threaded holes 131 are also provided on the end face of the placement part 13. The four threaded holes 131 are evenly distributed on both sides of the two countersunk holes. Bolts 132 are also threaded into the threaded holes 131. After the bearing seat is clamped, the ear of the bearing seat is further limited to prevent the bearing seat from rotating during turning.
[0048] In this embodiment, since the bearing housing has an asymmetrical structure, in order to reduce the centrifugal force generated by the bearing housing when the shaft head assembly 1 rotates, a counterweight 14 is also provided on the shaft head assembly 1. The counterweight 14 is located on the side of the placement part 13 that is farther away from the bearing housing ear and is fixedly connected to the placement part 13. When the shaft head assembly 1 rotates, it will not operate eccentrically, thus extending its service life.
[0049] Please see Figure 4 As shown, since the bearing housing is machined using traditional turning, two turning tools are required for tool changing, resulting in low efficiency and inability to guarantee product size requirements. In the second aspect, this application also provides a bearing housing machining device, including a bearing housing turning machining fixture as described in the first aspect, and a bearing housing turning machining tool 3, wherein the bearing housing turning machining tool 3 includes a tool holder 31 and two inserts 32.
[0050] Specifically, the tool holder 31 has a cylindrical structure, with one end connected to the bearing housing machining device and the other end having a planar structure, which is a mounting plane. Two fixing grooves are formed at the edge of the mounting plane. Two cutting blades 32 are respectively disposed within the fixing grooves and fixedly installed in the grooves by bolts 132 and nuts. Both cutting blades 32 have a rhomboid structure, giving them multiple cutting edges to enhance cutting stability in practical applications. The distance between the tips of the two cutting blades 32 is matched to the distance the bearing housing needs to be machined, enabling precise dimensional machining of the bearing housing. For example, when machining the journal portion of the bearing housing, this matching ensures that the machining length exactly meets the design requirements.
[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
