[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "vertical", "horizontal", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this embodiment of the utility model includes a welding box 2. The upper and lower surfaces of the welding box 2 are ground flat to ensure the flatness and parallelism requirements of the two planes of the tooling. The mounting surface of the clamping part is kept perpendicular to the upper and lower planes. The lower surface of the welding box 2 is provided with four U-shaped grooves, which can be fixedly connected to the T-shaped grooves of the machining center using T-bolts. Four lifting eye bolts 4 are provided at the four corners of the upper surface of the welding box 2 for lifting the tooling.
[0027] The clamping section on the upper surface of the welding box 2 is the machining position for the vertical machining process. It has four support pins 8 to support the flat ground surface of the workpiece 16. Two stop pins 9 and one stop block 13 are fixed to the upper surface of the welding box 2 by hexagonal screws 10. The shape of the workpiece 16 is positioned by the stop pins 9 and the stop block 13, fixing its machining position. The support pins 8, stop pins 9, and stop block 13 are all made of 20CrMnTi carburized and quenched to improve surface hardness and extend the service life of the parts. Two sets of movable pressure plates 6 are located on the left and right sides of the workpiece 16 to press it down. The movable pressure plates 6 are set in a "Z" shape to facilitate lowering the height of the hexagonal nuts 5, avoiding impact on machining caused by the height of the hexagonal nuts 5. The movable pressure plates 6 are made of 40Cr material quenched to improve surface hardness to 38HRC-42HRC, extending the service life of the movable pressure plates 6 while retaining their toughness. The movable pressure plate 6 has a push rod 11 at its tail end. The top of the push rod 11 has a ball head, which is locally hardened to improve hardness and extend service life. The bottom of the push rod 11 has threads that connect to the welded housing 2 and are secured with a hexagonal nut 5. A first double-ended screw 7 is located in the middle of the movable pressure plate 6 and is secured to the upper surface of the welded housing 2 with a hexagonal nut 5. A spring 12 is fitted onto the first double-ended screw 7 to support the movable pressure plate 6. When releasing the movable pressure plate 6, simply loosen the hexagonal nut 5 slightly, and the spring 12 will lift the movable pressure plate 6, preventing it from falling downwards due to gravity. The movable pressure plate 6 can then be moved to the left or right out of the installation position of the workpiece 16, allowing the workpiece 16 to be removed. Using the movable pressure plate 6 to clamp the workpiece 16 facilitates the disassembly and clamping of pump body parts.
[0028] The clamping section on the upper surface of the welding box 2 is the machining position for the second vertical machining process. It has four support pins 8 to support the flat ground surface of the workpiece 16. A cylindrical pin 14 and a diamond pin 3 are located in the middle. The cylindrical pin 14 is used for centering, the diamond pin 3 for orientation, and the four support pins 8 for supporting the workpiece 16. The workpiece 16 is positioned using a two-pin positioning method on one side. The cylindrical pin 14 and diamond pin 3 are carburized and quenched using 20CrMnTi to improve surface hardness and extend the service life of the parts. Similar to the machining position in the first vertical machining process, the workpiece 16 is clamped using a movable pressure plate 6, a push rod 11, a first double-ended screw 7, a spring 12, and a hexagonal nut 5.
[0029] The clamping section 3 at the front of the welding box 2 is the machining position for the third vertical machining process. It has four support pins 8 to support the plane of the workpiece 16 to be processed. A cylindrical pin 14 and a diamond pin 3 are located in the middle. The cylindrical pin 14 is used for centering, the diamond pin 3 for orientation, and the four support pins 8 to support the workpiece 16. The workpiece 16 is positioned using a two-pin positioning method on one side. The support pins 8, cylindrical pins 14, and diamond pins 3 are carburized and quenched using 20CrMnTi to improve the surface hardness of the parts and extend their service life. A second double-ended screw 15 is located in the center of the workpiece 16. The second double-ended screw 15 is tightly fixed to the front of the welding box 2 by a hexagonal nut 5. After the workpiece 16 is inserted into the positioning position, an open pressure plate 1 is inserted from above. After the opening groove 101 of the open pressure plate 1 is placed in the center of the second double-ended screw 15, the hexagonal nut 5 is tightened to press the open pressure plate 1 and fix the workpiece 16. When loosening, simply loosen the hexagonal nut 5 slightly to remove the opening pressure plate 1 from above, and the workpiece 16 to be processed can be removed from the front. The opening pressure plate 1 is made of 40Cr material and quenched to improve the surface hardness to 38HRC-42HRC, extending the service life of the opening pressure plate 1 while retaining its toughness.
[0030] Before initial use, the upper surfaces of the four support pins 8 used in each machining process should be calibrated to ensure that the flatness of the upper surfaces of the four support pins 8 is no greater than 0.02mm. During use, in the first vertical machining operation position, the workpiece 16 is supported by the support pins 8. Simultaneously, the workpiece 16 is pressed against the stop pin 9 and the stop block 13. The movable pressure plate 6 is moved to the pressing position, and the hexagonal nut 5 is tightened to clamp the part. After the workpiece 16 is clamped, the figure-eight shaped inner hole is machined, and the sealing ring groove is drilled and milled. In the second vertical machining operation position, the figure-eight shaped inner hole of the workpiece 16 is positioned using the tooling cylindrical pin 14 and the diamond pin 3, and the four support pins 8 support the surface of the workpiece 16. The movable pressure plate 6 is moved to the pressing position, and the hexagonal nut 5 is tightened to clamp the part. After the workpiece 16 is clamped, the sealing ring groove is milled. In the vertical machining process, at position three, the "8"-shaped inner hole of the workpiece 16 is positioned using tooling cylindrical pin 14 and diamond pin 3, and four support pins 8 support the plane of the workpiece 16. The open pressure plate 1 is inserted into the second double-ended screw 15, and the hexagonal nut 5 is tightened to clamp the workpiece 16. After the workpiece 16 is clamped, the oil inlet plane is milled flat, a hole is drilled, and tapping is performed.
