Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts manufacturing technology, and in particular to a punch for an internal hexagonal self-tapping screw for an automotive engine. Background Technology
[0002] The punch for the internal hexagonal self-tapping screw in the automobile engine is a key mold component for manufacturing this type of screw. Internal hexagonal self-tapping screws can be produced through a stamping mechanism.
[0003] Traditional spraying or oil immersion lubrication methods are often used in stamping to reduce the wear of the punch. However, these lubrication methods can lead to excessive lubricant splashing, which is not only wasteful but may also contaminate the workpiece surface. Furthermore, the lubricant is difficult to accurately reach the friction interface between the punch and the workpiece, which will reduce the service life of the punch during long-term stamping. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that in the prior art, when using punches for stamping, traditional spraying or oil immersion lubrication methods are often used to reduce the wear of the punches. However, the above lubrication methods will cause excessive lubricant to splash, which is not only wasteful but may also contaminate the surface of the workpiece. In addition, the lubricant is difficult to accurately reach the friction interface between the punch and the workpiece, which will reduce the service life of the punch during long-term stamping.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a self-tapping socket head cap screw punch for automotive engines, comprising a fixed mounting shank, a connecting shank movably connected within the fixed mounting shank, a punch head fixedly connected to the lower center of the connecting shank, an oil reservoir inside the connecting shank, and multiple evenly distributed oil injection holes at the lower end of the connecting shank. An oil passage interface is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixed mounting shank, and an input pipe is provided between the oil passage interface and the oil reservoir. The oil passage interface is connected to an external oil supply line via a flexible hose. Oil is supplied periodically through the external oil supply line at the punching frequency. During punching, lubricating oil can directly enter the oil reservoir through the input pipe, allowing the lubricating oil to be directly sprayed onto the friction interface between the punch and the workpiece, achieving precise lubrication, reducing punching wear of the punch head, and thus improving the service life of the punch.
[0006] In a preferred embodiment, the outer periphery of the connecting handle is chrome-plated to reduce the temperature rise caused by stamping friction.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the fixed mounting handle is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed fixing blocks. A slider is fixedly connected to the rear end of each fixing block. The slider is slidably connected inside the fixed mounting handle. A rotating ring is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the mounting handle. A pressure pin is fixedly connected to the lower end of the slider. An oil injection hole is opened on the rotating ring corresponding to the pressure pin. The pressure pin is slidably connected inside the corresponding sliding groove. By rotating the rotating ring, the sliding groove squeezes the oil injection hole, thereby moving the fixing blocks and controlling the distance between the fixing blocks, thus achieving the function of fixing the mounting handle.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, an adjustment box is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixed mounting handle, a worm gear is rotatably connected inside the adjustment box, and a worm tooth is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating ring. The worm tooth and the worm gear mesh and drive each other, and the worm gear and worm tooth have a self-locking property, which makes the rotation drive of the rotating ring more stable.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the fixing blocks have multiple evenly distributed grooves on their close-to-each end faces to increase the contact friction with the connecting handle, thereby improving the fixing stability of the connecting handle.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, a handle is fixedly connected to the side wall of the worm, which facilitates the rotation of the worm.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the worm gear has uniformly distributed grooves on its outer periphery. These grooves increase the contact friction of the worm gear, making it easier to rotate the handle.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, a connecting flange is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting handle, which serves to fix the punch.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. In this utility model, the oil circuit interface is connected to the external oil supply pipeline through a hose. The external oil supply pipeline supplies oil at regular intervals during the stamping frequency. During stamping, the lubricating oil can directly enter the oil storage chamber through the input pipe, so that the lubricating oil is directly sprayed on the friction interface between the punch and the workpiece, achieving precise lubrication, reducing the stamping wear of the stamping head, and thus improving the service life of the punch.
[0015] 2. This utility model can rotate the rotating ring to make the sliding groove squeeze the oil injection hole, thereby driving the fixed block to move, thereby controlling the distance between the fixed blocks and thus achieving the function of fixing the connecting handle. It can quickly replace the connecting handle and the stamping head, and the replacement speed is fast, which can improve the continuity of stamping production. Attached Figure Description

An oil passage interface 6 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixed mounting handle 1, and an input pipe 10 is provided between the oil passage interface 6 and the oil storage chamber 9. The oil passage interface 6 is connected to an external oil supply pipeline through a hose. Oil is supplied periodically through the external oil supply pipeline at the punching frequency. During punching, lubricating oil can directly enter the oil storage chamber 9 through the input pipe 10, so that the lubricating oil is directly sprayed on the friction interface between the punch and the workpiece, achieving precise lubrication, reducing the punching wear of the punching head 7, and thus improving the service life of the punch.
[0025] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the outer periphery of the connecting handle 8 is chrome-plated to reduce the temperature rise caused by stamping friction.
[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown, multiple evenly distributed fixing blocks 11 are arranged inside the fixed mounting handle 1. A slider 17 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the fixing block 11. The slider 17 is slidably connected inside the fixed mounting handle 1. A rotating ring 3 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the connecting handle 8. A pressure pin 13 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the slider 17. An oil injection hole 12 is opened at the position of the rotating ring 3 corresponding to the pressure pin 13. The pressure pin 13 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 14 at the corresponding position. By rotating the rotating ring 3, the sliding groove 14 can be squeezed against the oil injection hole 12, thereby driving the fixing block 11 to move, thereby controlling the distance between the fixing blocks 11, and thus realizing the function of fixing the connecting handle 8.
[0027] like Figure 1-5 As shown, an adjustment box 4 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixed mounting handle 1. A worm gear 15 is rotatably connected inside the adjustment box 4. A worm tooth 16 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating ring 3. The worm tooth 16 meshes with the worm gear 15 for transmission. The worm gear 15 and the worm tooth 16 have a self-locking property, which makes the rotation drive of the rotating ring 3 more stable.
[0028] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the fixing blocks 11 have multiple evenly distributed grooves on their close-to-each end faces to increase the contact friction with the connecting handle 8, thereby improving the fixing stability of the connecting handle 8.
[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a handle 5 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the worm 15, which facilitates the rotation of the worm 15.
[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the worm 15 has evenly distributed grooves on its outer periphery. These grooves increase the contact friction of the worm 15, making it easier to rotate the handle 5.
[0031] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a connecting flange 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed mounting handle 1. The connecting flange 2 serves to fix the punch.
[0032] Working principle: During stamping, the oil circuit interface 6 is connected to the external oil supply line through a hose. The external oil supply line supplies oil at regular intervals during the stamping frequency. When the stamping is reduced, the external oil supply line supplies oil, and the lubricating oil enters the oil storage chamber 9 through the input pipe 10. It is then sprayed directly onto the friction interface between the punch and the workpiece through the oil spray hole 12 to achieve precise lubrication, reduce the stamping wear of the stamping head 7, and thus improve the service life of the punch.
