Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive expansion check valve tooling fixtures, and specifically relates to a tooling for press-fitting piston expansion check valves. Background Technology

[0002] The function of an expansion check valve in a hydraulic system is to control the flow direction of oil. This type of check valve combines the features of a check valve and an expansion plug. It is commonly used in hydraulic systems for flow control in small-diameter applications. Currently, this type of check valve is installed on the clutch piston of a certain type of gearbox.

[0003] In actual production, due to the limitations of its clutch piston structure, the current press-fitting method for this one-way valve involves placing a small pad under the expansion one-way valve mounting hole of the piston. This pad cannot be too large and must be cylindrical. After placing the small pad at the bottom of the mounting hole, a worker needs to hold the other side of the piston to ensure that the piston is in a horizontal position during press-fitting. Then, another worker operates the press to perform the press-fitting. During the press-fitting process, because the piston is not fixed, the expansion one-way valve and the piston are prone to relative displacement, resulting in improper installation, misalignment, and damage to the expansion one-way valve. This makes the installation difficult and seriously affects the installation progress and working performance of the expansion one-way valve. Utility Model Content

[0027] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all components in this invention are known in the prior art. For example, the expansion check valve is a commonly used expansion check valve.

[0028] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the following specific embodiments. All equivalent modifications made based on the technical solutions of this application fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a tooling for press-fitting a piston expansion check valve includes a base plate 1 and a piston 2. Expansion valve mounting holes for installing expansion check valves 3 are provided on both the left and right sides of the piston 2. A support assembly is provided in the middle of the base plate 1.

[0030] The support assembly includes a cylindrical support member 4, with a support ring 5 coaxially arranged on the outer side of the support member 4; vertical fixing tube mounting holes 6 are opened on the left and right sides of the support member 4.

[0031] The shapes of the support member 4 and the support ring 5 match the inner shape of the piston 2, and the piston 2 can be mounted on the base plate 1 through the support assembly; when the piston 2 is mounted on the base plate 1, the two expansion valve mounting holes and the two fixing pipe mounting holes 6 are on the same straight line.

[0032] It also includes a guide tube 7, the inner wall size of which matches the inner wall size of the expansion valve mounting hole; an "L"-shaped fixing tube 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the guide tube 7, and the fixing tube 8 can be inserted into the fixing tube mounting hole 6; when the fixing tube 8 is inserted into the fixing tube mounting hole 6, the guide tube 7 is located on the same side of the expansion valve mounting hole and is coaxial with the expansion valve mounting hole.

[0033] As a preferred option, the guide tube 7 and the fixing tube 8 are integrally molded structures.

[0034] It also includes an I-shaped pressure plate 9 composed of two rectangular plates and a connecting plate. Both ends of the two rectangular plates have through holes. The base plate 1 has four bolt holes 10, which are evenly distributed around the piston 2 and correspond one-to-one with the four through holes of the I-shaped pressure plate 9 in space. The I-shaped pressure plate 9 can be screwed to the base plate 1 through the bolt holes 10, thereby pressing the piston 2.

[0035] Based on the specific structure of piston 2, this embodiment has a support member 4 and a support ring 5 designed on the base 1, which can fit completely with piston 2 to ensure that there will be no side flipping or air compression during the pressing process.

[0036] The following is a specific implementation method of this embodiment:

[0037] First, place the base 1 horizontally on the press worktable, and place the piston 2 on the base 1 so that the two expansion valve mounting holes and the two fixed pipe mounting holes 6 are on the same straight line.

[0038] Next, place the I-shaped pressure plate 9 on the piston 2, align the through hole on the I-shaped pressure plate 9 with the bolt hole 10 on the base 1, and use screws of matching specifications to pass through the through hole of the I-shaped pressure plate 9, and tighten the screws in sequence to fix the piston 2 on the base 1.

[0039] Next, the fixing tube 8 is inserted into the corresponding fixing tube mounting hole 6. At this time, the guide tube 7 is located on the expansion valve mounting hole on the same side and is coaxial with the expansion valve mounting hole. The expansion check valve 3 is placed in the guide tube 7, and the expansion check valve 3 slides freely in the guide tube 7 into the expansion check valve mounting hole on the piston 4.

[0040] At this point, use an external hydraulic press to drive the pressure rod, align it with the port of the guide tube 7, and start the external hydraulic press to work downwards. After the pressure rod moves to the installation tail of the expansion check valve 3, it continues to move downwards until the installation tail of the expansion check valve 3 is fully expanded and engaged with the wall of the expansion check valve installation hole of the piston 2. Then lift the pressure rod and remove the guide tube 7. Repeat this operation to install the expansion check valve 3 into the other expansion check valve installation hole to complete the press-fitting.

[0041] Finally, simply lift the pressure rod, reset the external hydraulic press, remove the guide tube 5, loosen and remove the screws one by one, remove the I-shaped pressure plate 9, and take out the piston 2 to complete the entire pressing process.

[0042] As a preferred option, bolt holes 10 are also provided in the middle of the support member 4;

[0043] The connecting plate of the I-shaped pressure plate 9 has a through hole at the corresponding position. The I-shaped pressure plate 9 can be screwed to the support member 4 through the bolt hole 10 in the middle of the support member 4, which further improves the stability during pressing.

[0044] As a preferred option, arrow-shaped markings are provided on both the left and right sides of the base plate 1;

[0045] All arrow-shaped markings point to the mounting hole 6 of the fixed tube. This arrangement ensures that the mounting hole of the expansion check valve of the piston 2 is horizontally aligned with the arrow markings on the base 1 during use, facilitating installation.

[0046] As a preferred option, the upper part of the guide tube 7 is coaxially connected to a funnel-shaped fitting, which facilitates the insertion of the expansion check valve 3.

[0047] As a preferred option, the gap between the lower end face of the guide tube 7 and the hole face of the expansion valve mounting hole on the piston (2) is no more than 1mm, so as to prevent the one-way valve from sliding out due to excessive gap between the two faces.
