However, the car reducer housing needs to be clamped and fixed during machining.

[0003] Existing gearbox housing machining fixtures can only clamp and fix housings of one diameter when clamping automotive gearbox housings. Therefore, when dealing with gearbox housings of different diameters, it is necessary to change the machining fixture to meet the requirements, resulting in poor practicality in use. In order to better address the above problems, promote the development of industry technology, and improve core competitiveness, this application proposes a new composition structure that is different from the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a machining fixture for automotive reducer housings.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A machining fixture for automotive reducer housings includes a mounting plate. A fixing frame is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate. A mounting groove is formed inside the fixing frame, and a turntable is rotatably connected to the mounting groove. A plurality of I-shaped sliding grooves arranged in a cross shape are formed on one side of the turntable. A clamping block for holding the automotive reducer housing is slidably connected to the I-shaped sliding groove. A round rod is fixedly connected to one side of the turntable, and a sliding sleeve is slidably connected to the outer side of the round rod.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] 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. The described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, not all embodiments. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are all within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Reference Figures 1-5 A machining fixture for an automotive reducer housing includes a mounting plate 1. A fixing frame 3 is fixed to the upper surface of the mounting plate 1 by bolts. A mounting groove 17 is provided inside the fixing frame 3. A turntable 4 is rotatably connected inside the mounting groove 17. A plurality of cross-shaped I-shaped grooves 9 are provided on one side of the turntable 4.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, a clamping block 5 for holding the car reducer housing is slidably connected inside the I-shaped slide groove 9. The clamping block 5 has a concave block structure.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a round rod 15 is welded to one side of the turntable 4, and a sliding sleeve 13 is slidably connected to the outside of the round rod 15. Mounting seats are welded to both the clamping block 5 and the sliding sleeve 13. The clamping block 5 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 12 through the mounting seat, and the connecting rod 12 is rotatably connected to the sliding sleeve 13 through the mounting seat.

[0026] The upper surface of the mounting plate 1 is provided with a power assembly for moving the sliding sleeve 13. The power assembly includes a fixing block 8, which is fixed to the upper surface of the mounting plate 1 by bolts. A fixing seat 7 is welded to the top of the fixing block 8, and a self-locking hydraulic cylinder 6 is fixed inside the fixing seat 7 by bolts. One end of the piston rod of the self-locking hydraulic cylinder 6 is rotatably connected to the sliding sleeve 13 through a bearing. The self-locking hydraulic cylinder 6 is model HFG1504. When it is necessary to clamp the reducer housing, the reducer housing is positioned between multiple clamping blocks 5 and in contact with the turntable 4. Then, the self-locking hydraulic cylinder 6 is activated to retract, which will drive the sliding sleeve 13 to move on the round rod 15. The sliding sleeve 13 moves to the outside of the turntable 4, and during the movement, the sliding sleeve 13 drives the clamping block 5 to move along the groove direction of the I-shaped sliding groove 9 through the connecting rod 12. The connecting rod 12 rotates with the clamping block 5 and the sliding sleeve 13, thereby moving multiple clamping blocks 5 towards the reducer housing. This allows multiple clamping blocks 5 to clamp the reducer housing synchronously in four directions, ensuring that the reducer housing is in the center position of the turntable 4. At the same time, it can be adapted to clamp and fix reducer housings of different diameters, improving the applicability of the processing fixture. In addition, the self-locking function of the self-locking hydraulic cylinder 6 can ensure that the clamping blocks 5 can stably clamp the reducer housing.

[0027] In this utility model, a locking assembly for fixing the turntable 4 is provided on one side of the fixing frame 3. The locking assembly includes two fixing plates 10, both of which are welded to one side of the fixing frame 3. Each of the two fixing plates 10 has a threaded hole on one side, and a hand-tightening nut 11 is threaded into the threaded hole. The operator can rotate the turntable 4, which will cause the gearbox housing being clamped and fixed to rotate. After the gearbox housing has rotated to a certain angle, the hand-tightening nut 11 is tightened, thereby locking and fixing the turntable 4 so that the turntable 4 cannot rotate. This makes it convenient for the operator to process the car gearbox housing and improves the use effect of the processing fixture.

[0028] In particular, the outer side of the sliding sleeve 13 is provided with multiple evenly distributed slots 14, and the outer side of the round rod 15 is welded with multiple limiting posts 16 that move along the slots 14. During the movement of the sliding sleeve 13, the limiting posts 16 will move within the slots 14, thereby guiding the movement of the sliding sleeve 13. At the same time, during the rotation of the turntable 4, the round rod 15 will drive the sliding sleeve 13 to rotate synchronously through the limiting posts 16, thereby preventing the rotation of the turntable 4 from getting stuck. The upper surface of the mounting plate 1 is provided with mounting holes 2 at the four corners. The mounting holes 2 are all elongated, and the elongated mounting holes 2 make it easy to fit the mounting plate 1 with the fixing holes at different positions for fixing.

[0029] Working principle: When it is necessary to clamp the reducer housing, the reducer housing is positioned between multiple clamping blocks 5 and in contact with the turntable 4. Then, the self-locking hydraulic cylinder 6 is activated to retract. The self-locking hydraulic cylinder 6 will drive the sliding sleeve 13 to move outside the round rod 15. During the movement of the sliding sleeve 13, it will drive the clamping blocks 5 to move along the groove direction of the I-shaped sliding groove 9 through the connecting rod 12. The connecting rod 12 will rotate with the clamping blocks 5 and the sliding sleeve 13, thereby moving the multiple clamping blocks 5 towards the reducer housing. This allows the multiple clamping blocks 5 to clamp the reducer housing synchronously in four directions, ensuring that the reducer housing is in the center position of the turntable 4. At the same time, it can adapt to reducer housings of different diameters for clamping. The fixed gripping mechanism expands the applicability of the machining fixture. Simultaneously, the self-locking function of the self-locking hydraulic cylinder 6 ensures stable clamping of the reducer housing by the clamping block 5. The operator can rotate the turntable 4, which in turn rotates the clamped reducer housing. After the reducer housing has rotated a certain angle, the hand-tightened nut 11 is tightened, locking the turntable 4 and preventing it from rotating. This facilitates machining of the automotive reducer housing and improves the effectiveness of the machining fixture. Furthermore, during the rotation of the turntable 4, the round rod 15 drives the sliding sleeve 13 to rotate synchronously via the limiting post 16, preventing the turntable 4 from jamming.

[0030] Furthermore, the terms "installation," "setup," "connection," and "socketing" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral constructions; they can refer to mechanical or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections via an intermediate medium, or internal connections between two devices, components, or parts. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
