Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of bearing processing, and in particular to a fixture for fixing small bearings. Background Technology

[0002] Bearings are key components in machinery used to reduce the coefficient of friction, minimize wear, and improve efficiency and motion accuracy. One type of aerospace bearing requires coaxial fixation to the mounting port of a mounting base. The fixation method involves placing the bearing into the mounting port and then using a 0.8mm diameter ball end to evenly punch six points along the circumference of the mounting base at a distance of 0.5–0.8mm from the bearing on both the upper and lower surfaces. The depth of the indentations is 0.3–0.5mm, ensuring that the force required to dislodge the bearing from the mounting base after fixation meets standard requirements.

[0003] However, punching one spot at a time with a punch, finishing one side before moving on to the other, results in low processing efficiency. Because the punching causes the material to flow and expand, subsequent punchings are affected by the previous ones, leading to poor consistency in the depth of the holes and low processing quality. Utility Model Content

[0004] To improve processing efficiency, this application provides a fixture for fixing small bearings.

[0005] The fixing fixture for a small bearing provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A fixture for fixing a small bearing includes a lower die, a positioning shaft, an upper die, and an upper punch. The positioning shaft is connected to the lower die, and the upper die is slidably connected to the positioning shaft. The positioning shaft is used for mounting the bearing. The upper punch is connected to the end of the upper die facing the lower die and is used for punching holes in the mounting base. Multiple upper punches are provided and are evenly spaced around the axis of the positioning shaft.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning shaft positions the bearing, and the upper and lower dies are used to fix the bearing. As the upper die slides closer to the lower die, the punch punches a groove in the assembly seat, which improves processing efficiency, and the punched grooves are consistent, improving the bearing's appearance and product quality.

[0008] Preferably, it also includes a lower punch, which is connected to the end of the lower die facing the upper die. The lower punch is used to punch holes in the mounting base. Multiple lower punches are provided, and the lower punches are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the upper punches.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper punch punches a dent on one side of the assembly seat while the lower punch punches a dent on the other side of the assembly seat, completing the punching of both sides of the assembly seat in one go. There is no need to punch one side and then punch the other side, which improves processing efficiency. In addition, the bearing is prone to displacement during the flipping process, which affects the processing quality. Punching the dents on both sides at once improves the aesthetics of the bearing.

[0010] Preferably, the upper punch is detachably connected to the upper die.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, when a single upper punch is damaged, it is easy to replace the damaged upper punch individually, thus extending the service life of the tooling.

[0012] Preferably, the upper mold has an installation port at the end facing the lower mold, and a disassembly port at the end facing away from the lower mold. The disassembly port is connected to the installation port, and the upper punch is fixedly embedded in the installation port.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper punch and the upper die are fixed, and the stability and firmness of the upper punch are good.

[0014] Preferably, the mounting port and the disassembly port are coaxially arranged.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easier to disassemble the upper punch and improve the efficiency of disassembly and assembly of the upper punch.

[0016] Preferably, the diameter of the mounting port is larger than the diameter of the disassembly port.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper punch is subjected to a reaction force when punching the dent, and the diameter of the mounting opening is larger than that of the disassembly opening, so that the upper die can resist the upper punch and improve the stability of the tooling.

[0018] Preferably, the upper mold includes a top seat and a top mold. The top seat has a mounting groove at one end facing the lower mold. The top mold is fixedly embedded in the mounting groove. The top mold has an installation port. The top seat has a disassembly port. The top mold is slidably connected to the positioning shaft.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easier to process the installation port and the disassembly port separately, thereby improving processing efficiency.

[0020] Preferably, the upper mold has a positioning port at one end facing the lower mold, the positioning port penetrates the upper mold, and the positioning shaft is slidably connected to the inner wall of the positioning port.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning port guides the sliding of the positioning shaft, and the positioning shaft guides the sliding of the upper die, so that the upper punch can punch holes stably, thereby improving processing efficiency and processing quality.

[0022] Preferably, the lower mold has a sliding opening at one end facing the upper mold, the sliding opening penetrates the lower mold, and the positioning shaft is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding opening.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the lower mold and the upper mold are brought closer to each other, enabling synchronous processing of both sides of the assembly base, thereby improving processing efficiency and processing quality.

[0024] Preferably, the end of the upper punch facing the lower die is spherical.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the spherical surface facilitates the upper punch to punch the mounting base. The upper punch is integrally formed and does not need to be connected to the ball head, which facilitates punching.

[0026] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0027] 1. The positioning shaft positions the bearing, and the upper and lower dies are closed to fix the bearing. As the upper die slides closer to the lower die, the punch punches a groove in the assembly seat in one go, which improves processing efficiency and the uniformity of the punched grooves, improves the appearance of the bearing and improves product quality.

[0028] 2. While the upper punch punches a dent on one side of the assembly base, the lower punch punches a dent on the other side of the assembly base, completing the punching of both sides of the assembly base in one go. This eliminates the need to punch one side and then the other, improving processing efficiency. In addition, bearings are prone to displacement during the flipping process, which affects processing quality. Punching both sides at once improves the aesthetics of the bearing.

[0029] 3. The lower and upper molds are close to each other to achieve synchronous processing of both sides of the assembly base, thereby improving processing efficiency and quality. Attached Figure Description
