[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brake cylinder assembly technology, specifically a tool assembly for disassembling and assembling brake cylinder tie rod hinge pin and clamping ring. Background Technology
[0002] The braking system of subway vehicles is particularly important, and the brake cylinder is a crucial component for achieving braking function. During major overhauls of subway vehicle frames, a comprehensive disassembly and inspection of the brake cylinder is required. One of the tasks is replacing the brake cylinder tie rod hinge pin and clamping ring. The hinge pin is fixed inside the tie rod by the clamping ring, and the mounting holes at both ends of the hinge pin are bolted to the frame, thus supporting the unit brake cylinder. Hinge pin installation requirements: After press-fitting, the bulge must not exceed 2mm, the symmetry must not exceed 0.6mm, and the parallelism must not exceed 1°.
[0003] Currently, the following problems exist in the disassembly and assembly of brake cylinder hinge pins and clamping rings:
[0004] (1) The tie rod cannot be stably supported, which means it cannot be in a horizontal position;
[0005] (2) When the hinge pin at the connection between the tie rod and the frame is installed, it cannot be guaranteed that the hinge pin will always be in a horizontal position during the compression process.
[0006] (3) When the clamping ring is installed, it is not possible to accurately compress the clamping ring in the horizontal position inside the tie rod, which may result in excessive compression and failure to meet the process standards.
[0007] (4) The lack of special disassembly and assembly tools during the operation process affects the entire brake cylinder repair process, which in turn affects the production progress of the frame overhaul. Utility Model Content

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the tie rod fixing fixture 1 includes a base plate 101 and a support sleeve 102 disposed in the middle of the base plate 101. In use, the support sleeve 102 is placed below the hinge pin mounting hole of the tie rod 5.
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the clamping ring disassembly and assembly fixture 2 includes an upper sleeve 201 and a lower sleeve 202. The top of the upper sleeve 201 is open. In use, the bottom of the lower sleeve 202 is in contact with the press.

One end of the fixing rod 401 is vertically fixed with an adjusting rod 402. The end of the adjusting rod 402 is provided with an insertion hole 403 that matches the connecting blocks at both ends of the hinge pin.
[0036] In a specific embodiment, by measuring the inner and outer diameters of the brake cylinder tie rod hinge pin clamping ring and the outer diameter of its mounting surface (45mm, 55mm, and 71mm respectively), a circular fixture with a diameter larger than the clamping ring and an outer diameter smaller than the mounting surface diameter is manufactured.

The outer diameter of the lower sleeve 202 is larger than that of the upper sleeve 201, and the height of the lower sleeve 202 is 120mm. The length of the fixing rod 401 of the hinge pin parallel fixture 4 is 400mm, the length of the adjusting rod 402 is 200mm, and the width of the insertion hole 403 is 16.5mm.
[0038] In practical use, this utility model includes two processes: disassembly and installation.
[0039] Disassembly: During disassembly, the fixture is fixed by a tie rod. Figure 1 Planar positioning balances the pull rod, and a clamping ring assembly / disassembly tool with a diameter between the inner and outer diameters of the clamping ring is used on its upper part. Figure 2 The hinge pin and the clamping ring are pressed out of the hinge pin mounting hole of the pull rod 5 by the action of the press machine on the clamping ring disassembly and assembly tool.
[0040] During installation, such as Figure 6 As shown, it includes the following steps:
[0041] ① During installation, apply an appropriate amount of petroleum jelly to the rubber components of the hinge pin for lubrication to reduce friction between the hinge pin and the contact surface of the pull rod. Use the pull rod to fix the fixture. Figure 1 Fix the tie rod to the press table and keep it horizontal;
[0042] ② Use hinge pins to parallel tooling ( Figure 4 This ensures that the hinge pin remains horizontal with the tie rod throughout the installation process. The tooling is then installed using the hinge pin. Figure 3 Connect the fixed press and the hinge pin. After fixing, use the press to press the hinge pin into the appropriate position. The error angle meets the standard range and makes it parallel to the upper and lower planes of the pull rod.
[0043] ③ Use clamping rings to disassemble and assemble the tooling ( Figure 2 Press the clamping rings into the mounting holes at both ends in opposite directions. The clamping rings should be flush with the plane of the mounting holes on the tie rods. The error on both sides of the hinge pins should meet the standard range. The entire installation process is now complete.
