Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of positioning tooling technology, specifically to a positioning tooling for machining arc teeth. Background Technology

[0002] Spiral bevel gears are important components in mechanical transmission. Their tooth profile is arc-shaped, unlike ordinary straight bevel gears. Spiral bevel gears are usually used in high-speed, high-precision transmission systems, such as in aviation, aerospace, automotive and machine tool fields. Currently, the spiral teeth can be clamped and fixed by positioning fixtures for machining.

[0003] For example, CN221159375U discloses a positioning fixture for arc-tooth bevel gears, relating to the field of mechanical manufacturing technology. It includes a base (containing paired toothed protrusions), an annular pressure plate, and double-ended studs, wherein the base and pressure plate are separable. Three evenly distributed toothed protrusions on the uppermost inner hole of the base engage with the tooth grooves of the large arc-tooth bevel gear to be processed, for radial positioning. The pressure plate has a ring-like structure, with its inner hole engaging with the back conical surface of the large arc-tooth bevel gear to be processed, for axial positioning. Double-ended studs connect the base and pressure plate. The base is fixed to the machine tool transition plate by bolts. The large arc-tooth bevel gear to be processed is placed in the base, allowing it to engage with the toothed protrusions. The double-ended studs connect the base and pressure plate, pressing the back conical surface of the large arc-tooth bevel gear to be processed, thus completing the pre-processing work, and enabling the processing of the large end face and inner hole of the large arc-tooth bevel gear.

[0004] Although the aforementioned patent can process the large end face and inner hole of the large wheel of the spiral bevel gear, the prior art of this patent, after clamping and fixing the spiral bevel gear, makes it inconvenient to adjust the processing position of the spiral bevel gear, thus making it difficult to meet complex processing requirements and reducing its practicality.

A second U-shaped frame 306 is fixed on both the left and right sides of the upper surface of the second fixing block 302. A first fixing block 2 is slidably connected to the outer side of the second U-shaped frame 306 on the left and right sides. A second electric push rod 307 is fixed on the front side of the upper surface of the second fixing block 302. The output shaft of the second electric push rod 307 is fixedly connected to the front side of the first fixing block 2.

[0029] Specifically, the slider 305 moves linearly left and right inside the limiting groove 304, the first U-shaped frame 301 on the front and rear sides is symmetrically distributed on the front and rear sides of the transverse central axis of the base 1, and the lower surface of the second fixing block 302 is in contact with the upper surface of the base 1.

[0030] It should be noted that during processing, the first electric push rod 303 can be activated, which can drive the second fixed block 302 to move left and right, thereby adjusting the processing position of the clamped spiral bevel gear on the left and right sides. By activating the second electric push rod 307, the first fixed block 2 can be moved back and forth, thereby adjusting the processing position of the clamped spiral bevel gear on the back and forth sides, so as to carry out processing, improve processing efficiency, meet complex processing requirements, and improve processing accuracy.

[0031] Please see Figure 4 In this embodiment, the fixing mechanism 4 includes a mounting groove 401 formed on the upper surface of the first fixing block 2.

Then, by simultaneously activating the third electric push rods 406 on both sides, the arc-shaped clamping plates 407 on both sides are moved synchronously in opposite directions, thus clamping and fixing the spiral bevel gear at the center of the upper surface of the rotating disk 405. The clamped spiral bevel gear can then be processed by the processing equipment. During processing, the motor 402 can be started, and the output shaft of the motor 402 drives the rotating rod 404 and the rotating disk 405 to rotate, thereby adjusting the processing angle of the clamped spiral bevel gear.
