[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-5As shown, a straightening device for a forged crankshaft blank includes a mounting base 1 and a crankshaft blank body 2. The mounting base 1 has placement grooves 3 at both ends, and the crankshaft blank body 2 is installed in the placement grooves 3 at both ends. One end of the mounting base 1 has a sliding groove 4, in which a first lead screw 6 driven by a first motor 5 is rotatably mounted. A T-shaped plate 7 is threaded to the outer side of the first lead screw 6. An electric cylinder 8 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the T-shaped plate 7. A first mounting plate 10 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the electric cylinder 8. A guide groove 11 is opened on one side of the first mounting plate 10, and a threaded rod 12 is rotatably mounted in the guide groove 11. A sliding block 13 is threaded to the outer side of the threaded rod 12. A second mounting plate 14 is fixedly mounted on one end of the sliding block 13. Both the first mounting plate 10 and the second mounting plate 14 have square grooves 15 at one end. A movable straightening plate 16 is installed in the square grooves 15 via a drive assembly 9. An integrated control panel 17 is fixedly mounted on one end of the mounting base 1.Both the first motor 5 and the electric cylinder 8 are electrically connected to the integrated control panel 17. The first motor 5 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting base 1, and its output end is fixedly connected to the first lead screw 6. A handwheel 18 is fixedly installed on one end of the threaded rod 12. An L-shaped reinforcing plate 19 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the first mounting plate 10, and a second mounting plate 14 is slidably installed on the upper end of the L-shaped reinforcing plate 19. In use, one end of the integrated control panel 17 is connected to an external power source via a wire. First, the crankshaft blank body 2 is placed in the placement slot 3, and then... The crankshaft blank body 2 is inspected using a dial indicator or roundness tester. Both dial indicators and roundness testers are existing structures; a suitable dial indicator or roundness tester can be selected for inspection. The inspection process utilizes existing mature technologies. When the roundness of the crankshaft blank body 2 does not meet requirements, the two ends of the crankshaft blank body 2 are first fixed using external fixing devices. Then, the first motor 5 is manually started via the integrated control panel 17, driving the first lead screw 6 to rotate within the sliding groove 4, moving the T-shaped plate 7 to the lower end of the crankshaft blank body 2 where the roundness does not meet requirements. The first motor 5 is a servo motor, selected from the Siemens SINAMICSS120 series. Then, the electric cylinder 8 is started via the integrated control panel 17, driving the first mounting plate 10 and the second mounting plate 14 upwards, moving the correction plate 16 to both sides of the crankshaft blank body 2. The correction plate 16 on the first mounting plate 10 is used to correct the main journal, and the correction plate 16 on the second mounting plate 14 is used to correct the connecting rod journal. Finally, the drive assembly 9 is started via the integrated control panel 17, driving the correction plates 16 to move towards each other, thus correcting the crankshaft blank. The main body 2 undergoes extrusion correction, which significantly improves correction efficiency compared to traditional correction methods. The position of the T-shaped plate 7 is adjusted via the first lead screw 6 to accommodate the correction requirements of crankshaft blanks 2 of varying lengths. When correction is needed for the connecting rod journal on the other side, the handwheel 18 is manually turned, causing the threaded rod 12 to rotate. This moves the sliding block 13 within the guide groove 11, allowing the second mounting plate 14 to move to the lower end of the connecting rod journal on the other side for easier correction. The L-shaped reinforcing plate 19 provides support for the second mounting plate 14.

[0022] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the drive assembly 9 includes a bidirectional lead screw 901 and a second motor 902. The bidirectional lead screw 901 is rotatably mounted in the square slot 15 and is threadedly connected to one end of the correction plate 16. The second motor 902 is fixedly mounted on one end of the first mounting plate 10 and the second mounting plate 14. The output end of the second motor 902 is threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw 901 and electrically connected to the integrated control panel 17. In use, the second motor 902 is a servo motor selected from the Siemens SINAMICSS120 series. First, the second motor 902 is manually started through the integrated control panel 17 to drive the bidirectional lead screw 901 to rotate, causing the correction plates 16 to move towards each other and to extrude and correct the crankshaft blank body 2.
