Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tooling technology, and in particular to a tooling for disassembling and assembling a bearing lock nut. Background Technology
[0002] In tobacco processing, a shredder is typically used to shred the tobacco. The shredder includes a motor bearing, a main shaft, and a lock nut. The lock nut is threaded onto the main shaft, and the inner ring of the bearing is clamped and fixed by the lock nut and the stepped surface on the main shaft.
[0003] Because the main shaft and motor bearings (hereinafter referred to as bearings) of the shredder are both large in size, the lock nut is also large in size. Furthermore, because the internal structure of the shredder is relatively compact, it is difficult for operators to disassemble and assemble the lock nut. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a tooling for disassembling and assembling bearing lock nuts, which makes the disassembly and assembly of lock nuts less difficult.
[0005] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A tooling for disassembling and assembling a bearing lock nut is provided, comprising:
[0007] A cylindrical body, wherein at least one group of holes is provided on the cylindrical body, the group of holes including a first hole and a second hole facing each other along the axial direction of the cylindrical body, and both the first hole and the second hole penetrate the cylindrical wall of the cylindrical body;
[0008] A first connector is located at one end of the cylinder. The first connector has a first mating structure along the axial direction of the cylinder, on a side opposite to the cylinder. The central axis of the first mating structure coincides with the central axis of the cylinder. The first mating structure is used for connecting a torque wrench.
[0009] The second connector is located opposite the first connector at the other end of the cylinder. The second connector has a second mating structure. The central axis of the second mating structure is offset from the central axis of the cylinder, and the second mating structure can be engaged with the lock nut.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution for the disassembly and assembly tooling of the bearing lock nut, the cylinder is provided with a plurality of hole groups, including at least one first hole group and at least one second hole group. The first hole group and the second hole group correspond one-to-one. The first hole and the second hole in the same hole group have a center point line connecting them. The center point line connecting the first hole group and the center point line connecting the corresponding second hole group form an angle.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution for the disassembly and assembly tooling of the bearing lock nut, the line connecting the center points of the first hole group and the line connecting the center points of the corresponding second hole group form an angle θ, where 80°≤θ≤100°.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution for the disassembly and assembly tooling of the bearing lock nut, along the axial direction of the cylinder, the line connecting the center points of the first hole group is spaced apart from the line connecting the center points of the corresponding second hole group.
[0013] As a preferred technical solution for the disassembly and assembly tooling of the bearing lock nut, along the axial direction of the cylinder, the distance between the line connecting the center points of the first hole group and the line connecting the center points of the corresponding second hole group is d, and the diameter of the first hole and the diameter of the second hole are both r1, 0mm < d < r1.
[0014] As a preferred technical solution for the disassembly and assembly tooling of the bearing lock nut, the plurality of hole groups include a plurality of first hole groups and a plurality of second hole groups, the plurality of first hole groups being distributed at intervals along the axial direction of the cylinder, and the plurality of second hole groups being distributed at intervals along the axial direction of the cylinder.
[0015] As a preferred technical solution for the disassembly and assembly tooling of the bearing lock nut, along the axial direction of the cylinder, any of the hole groups is spaced apart from other non-corresponding hole groups.
[0016] As a preferred technical solution for the disassembly and assembly tooling of the bearing lock nut, the second connector is an annular structure, which can be sleeved on the outer periphery of the lock nut. The second mating structure is provided on the inner side of the second connector, and the second mating structure is a convex strip structure extending along the axial direction of the cylinder. The outer periphery of the lock nut is provided with a groove, which extends through both ends of the lock nut along the axial direction of the cylinder. The convex strip structure can engage with or disengage from the groove along the axial direction of the cylinder.
[0017] As a preferred technical solution for the disassembly and assembly tooling of the bearing lock nut, the second connector has a maximum diameter r2, and the cylinder and the first connector together have a maximum diameter r3, where r3≤r2.
[0018] As a preferred technical solution for the disassembly and assembly tooling of the bearing lock nut, the inner ring of the bearing has a diameter r4, and the maximum diameter r2 of the second joint satisfies: r2≤r4.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0020] By providing a bearing lock nut assembly / disassembly fixture, a second mating structure is provided to engage with the lock nut. A set of holes is provided on the cylindrical body, allowing an operating rod to pass through the first and second holes sequentially. The operator can then rotate the entire assembly / disassembly fixture by rotating the operating rod, causing the second mating structure to rotate the lock nut thread around the spindle, thus initially tightening or loosening the inner ring of the bearing significantly. Because the operating rod easily applies a large torque to the assembly / disassembly fixture, and the cylindrical body allows the operator to operate within a different space than the space near the lock nut, the operating force required for significant tightening or loosening of the lock nut is relatively small, and the operating space can be large, making the operation of significantly tightening or loosening the lock nut easier.
[0021] Furthermore, the first mating structure allows for the connection of a torque wrench, enabling the operator to rotate the disassembly and assembly tool by operating the torque wrench. This rotates the lock nut thread onto the main shaft, allowing for precise control of the torque applied to the lock nut by the disassembly and assembly tool. This prevents damage to the lock nut or the main shaft. Since the operating space during this process is relatively large, the operator has a lower difficulty in controlling the torque to tighten the lock nut.
[0022] Furthermore, due to the large dimensions of the spindle, bearings, and lock nuts of the shredder, the disassembly and assembly fixtures are also large and heavy, making them difficult for operators to handle directly. By having the operating rod pass through the first and second holes sequentially, operators can lift the operating rod to move the disassembly and assembly fixtures, making it easier for operators to apply moving force to them and facilitating joint handling by two or more operators.

Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this utility model provides a bearing lock nut disassembly and assembly tool 1, including a cylindrical body 10, a first connector 11, and a second connector 12. The cylindrical body 10 is provided with at least one hole group 101, which includes a first hole 1011 and a second hole 1012 facing each other along the axial direction L of the cylindrical body 10. The first hole 1011 and the second hole 1012 both penetrate the cylindrical wall of the cylindrical body 10. The first connector 11 is located at one end of the cylindrical body 10. The first connector 11 is provided with a first mating structure 111 on the side of the cylindrical body 10 away from the cylindrical body 10 along the axial direction L. The central axis of the first mating structure 111 coincides with the central axis of the cylindrical body 10. The first mating structure 111 is used for connection with a torque wrench. The second connector 12 is located opposite to the first connector 11 at the other end of the cylindrical body 10. The second connector 12 is provided with a second mating structure 121. The central axis of the second mating structure 121 is offset from the central axis of the cylindrical body 10, and the second mating structure 121 can be engaged with the lock nut 2.
[0038] By providing a bearing lock nut 2 disassembly and assembly tool 1, a second mating structure 121 is provided to engage with the lock nut 2. By providing a hole group 101 on the cylinder 10, the first hole 1011 and the second hole 1012 can be passed through sequentially by the operating rod. Then, the operator can rotate the entire disassembly and assembly tool 1 by rotating the operating rod, so that the second mating structure 121 can drive the lock nut 2 to be threaded and twisted on the main shaft 3, so as to initially tighten or loosen the inner ring 4 of the bearing significantly. Since it is easy to apply a large torque to the disassembly and assembly tool 1 through the operating rod, and the space where the operator applies the operation to the disassembly and assembly tool 1 through the cylinder 10 is a different space from the space near the lock nut 2, the operating force required for the operator to tighten or loosen the lock nut 2 significantly is small, and the operating space of this operation process can be large, so the difficulty of the operator to tighten or loosen the lock nut 2 significantly is low.
[0039] Furthermore, the torque wrench is connected via the first mating structure 111, allowing the operator to rotate the disassembly / assembly tool 1 by operating the torque wrench. This causes the lock nut 2 to be threaded onto the spindle 3, and the torque applied to the lock nut 2 by the disassembly / assembly tool 1 can be precisely controlled, preventing damage to the lock nut 2 or the spindle 3. Since the operating space in this process is relatively large, the operator has a lower difficulty in controlling the torque to tighten the lock nut 2.
[0040] Furthermore, since the main shaft 3, bearings, and lock nut 2 of the shredder are all relatively large, the disassembly and assembly fixture 1 is also relatively large, making it heavy and difficult for operators to move directly. By having the operating rod pass through the first hole 1011 and the second hole 1012 in sequence, operators can move the disassembly and assembly fixture 1 by lifting the operating rod. This makes it easier for operators to apply moving force to the disassembly and assembly fixture 1 and also facilitates two or more operators to move the disassembly and assembly fixture 1 together.
[0041] Optionally, the first mating structure 111 can be any structure that can be mated and connected to a torque wrench. For example, the first mating structure 111 can be, but is not limited to, a hexagonal prism structure, a quadrangular prism structure, or a structure with a hexagonal groove.
[0042] Please combine Figure 3 As shown, since the operator's minimum effort required to rotate the tool 1 when rotating the operating rod is generally less than 180°, when using a pair of first holes 1011 and second holes 1012 to rotate the operating rod, the operator needs to use considerable force to rotate the operating rod outside the minimum effort required rotation angle range. Therefore, optionally, the cylinder 10 is provided with multiple hole groups 101, each including at least one first hole group 101a and at least one second hole group 101b. The first hole group 101a and the second hole group 101b correspond one-to-one, and the first hole 1011 and the second hole 1012 within the same hole group 101 have a central... The line connecting the center points of the first hole group 101a and the corresponding line connecting the center points of the second hole group 101b forms an angle. This allows the operator to pass the operating rod through the first hole 1011 and the second hole 1012 of the first hole group 101a and rotate the operating rod within a relatively effortless range of rotation. After that, the operating rod can be pulled out from the first hole 1011 and the second hole 1012 of the first hole group 101a and then passed through the first hole 1011 and the second hole 1012 of the second hole group 101b. This allows the operator to continue rotating the operating rod within a relatively effortless range of rotation, further reducing the difficulty for the operator to significantly tighten or loosen the lock nut 2.
[0043] Since the operator can rotate the operating rod to rotate the disassembly and assembly tool 1 with minimal effort, the rotation angle range is approximately 90°. Therefore, optionally, the line 1013 connecting the center points of the first hole group 101a and the line 1013 connecting the center points of the corresponding second hole group 101b form an angle θ, 80°≤θ≤100°. For example, the angle θ can be 80°, 82°, 85°, 87°, 90°, 92°, 95°, 97°, or 100°, so that the distribution of the corresponding first hole group 101a and second hole group 101b is more suitable for the operator to complete the operation of tightening or loosening the lock nut 2 with less effort.
[0044] Please combine Figure 4As shown, optionally, along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10, the line 1013 connecting the center points of the first hole group 101a and the line 1013 connecting the center points of the corresponding second hole group 101b are spaced apart, so that the corresponding first hole group 101a and second hole group 101b are offset along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10, which can avoid the problem of poor local structural strength of the cylinder 10 due to the first hole group 101a and the second hole group 101b being too concentrated.
[0045] Optionally, along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10, the distance between the line connecting the center points of the first hole group 101a and the corresponding line connecting the center points of the second hole group 101b is d. The diameter of the first hole 1011 and the diameter of the second hole 1012 are both r1, where 0mm < d < r1. Thus, the projections of the first hole group 101a and the second hole group 101b along the circumferential direction of the cylinder 10 overlap, which can avoid the first hole group 101a and the second hole group 101b having too large an offset distance along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10. This also avoids the operator having to perform large-scale tightening or loosening operations on the lock nut 2 using the corresponding first hole group 101a and the second hole group 101b. The force applied during operation is more consistent, in other words, it can make it easier for the operator to operate using the corresponding first hole group 101a and the second hole group 101b.
[0046] In other embodiments, d may also be 0 mm.
[0047] During the process of tightening or loosening the lock nut 2 using the disassembly and assembly tool 1, as the lock nut 2 is continuously tightened or loosened on the main shaft 3, the relative position of the lock nut 2 and the main shaft 3 along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10 will also change. This will cause the disassembly and assembly tool 1 to move closer to or further away from the main shaft 3 along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10. Consequently, the relative position of the operator's optimal operating space and the cylinder 10 will also change. Based on this, optionally, the multiple hole groups 101 include multiple first hole groups 101a and multiple second hole groups 101b. The multiple first hole groups 101a are spaced apart along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10, and the multiple second hole groups 101b are spaced apart along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10. This allows the operator to select the most suitable hole group 101 to tighten or loosen the lock nut 2 according to the relative position of the cylinder 10 and the optimal operating space.
[0048] Optionally, along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10, any hole group 101 is spaced apart from other non-corresponding hole groups 101, thereby making the spacing between the hole group 101 and other non-corresponding hole groups 101 along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10 larger. This allows the operator to perform large-scale tightening or loosening of the lock nut 2 with less effort and simplicity, given a fixed length of the cylinder 10, through fewer hole groups 101. This simplifies the structure of the cylinder 10 and avoids the problem of poor structural strength caused by too many hole groups 101 in the cylinder 10.
[0049] Please combine Figure 5 As shown, optionally, the second connector 12 is an annular structure. The second connector 12 can be sleeved on the outer periphery of the lock nut 2. The second mating structure 121 is provided on the inner side of the second connector 12. The second mating structure 121 is a convex structure extending along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10. The outer periphery of the lock nut 2 is provided with a groove 20. The groove 20 passes through both ends of the lock nut 2 along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10. The convex structure can engage with or disengage from the groove 20 along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10. Thus, the operator can move the entire assembly / disassembly tool 1 along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10 towards the lock nut 2 so that the second connector 12 engages with the groove 20 of the lock nut 2. The operator can also move the entire assembly / disassembly tool 1 away from the lock nut 2 along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10 so that the second connector 12 disengages from the groove 20 of the lock nut 2. The connection and disassembly operations of the assembly / disassembly tool 1 and the lock nut 2 are simple.
[0050] In other embodiments, the second mating structure 121 can be protruding from the end of the second connector 12 away from the cylinder 10, and the lock nut 2 can be provided with a locking hole that can be engaged with the second mating structure 121. Alternatively, the second mating structure 121 can be any existing structure that can be connected with the lock nut 2 and can drive the lock nut 2 to rotate. This embodiment does not impose any specific limitations.
[0051] Optionally, the second connector 12 has a maximum diameter r2, and the cylinder 10 and the first connector 11 together have a maximum diameter r3, r3≤r2, so that the radial dimension of the assembly and disassembly fixture 1 is suitable to be close to or far from the main shaft 3 along the axial direction L of the cylinder 10, while not easily interfering with other structures of the shredder.
[0052] Optionally, the inner ring 4 of the bearing has a diameter r4, and the maximum diameter r2 of the second connector 12 satisfies: r2≤r4. Thus, when the second connector 12 is engaged with the lock nut 2, the second connector 12 is less likely to interfere with the outer ring structure of the bearing, so as to avoid the second connector 12 contacting the outer ring of the bearing, thereby affecting the operation process of clamping or loosening the inner ring 4 of the bearing through the lock nut 2 and the main shaft 3.
[0053] Preferably, the maximum diameter r2 of the second connector 12, the maximum diameter r3 of the cylinder 10 and the first connector 11 as a whole, and the diameter r4 of the inner ring 4 of the bearing can satisfy: r3≤r2≤r4, so as to better avoid interference between the disassembly and assembly tooling 1 and the structure other than the lock nut 2 in the shredder.
