Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of positioning tooling technology, specifically to a positioning tooling for a gear processing table. Background Technology
[0002] A gear is a ring-shaped mechanical component with teeth on its rim, capable of continuous meshing to transmit motion and power. During gear machining, fixtures are needed to maintain the stable position of the ring-shaped gear blank. Current gear machining processes require selecting appropriate positioning fixtures based on the different structural forms of external and internal gears. When fixing internal gears, multiple fixtures are typically used to press against the outer wall of the internal gear, while when fixing external gears, multiple fixtures are used to press against the inner wall of the external gear, moving away from each other. To prevent wear caused by compression between the fixture and the ring-shaped gear blank, ring-shaped buffer pads are usually fixed to the fixture. However, when fixing the ring-shaped gear blank, only a portion of the buffer pad can contact the outer or inner wall of the ring-shaped gear blank, resulting in a limited buffering effect, which needs improvement.

[0034] To further understand the content of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.
[0035] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-10 This embodiment will be described in further detail.
[0036] Please see Figures 1-7A gear processing table positioning fixture in this embodiment includes a support plate 100. Multiple movable clamping members are provided on the support plate 100. The relative movement of the clamping members is used to fix the annular gear blank 110. A driving member is also provided at the bottom end of the support plate 100. The driving member is used to drive the multiple clamping members to move relative to each other.
[0037] The clamping component includes a movable moving block 200, on which an extension plate 610 is provided that can be raised, lowered and rotated, and on which a pressing block 620 is provided that can be raised, lowered, and on the side wall of the pressing block 620 away from the extension plate 610, a removable buffer pad 621 is provided, and the extension plate 610 can be rotated to change the orientation of the buffer pad 621.
[0038] In this embodiment, multiple support legs 101 are fixedly connected to the bottom end face of the support plate 100. Specifically, the support legs 101 are installed on the operating table of the machine tool (not shown in the figure) by screws. The operating table is provided with a rotatable turntable. The turntable can rotate slowly, thereby driving the annular gear blank 110 to rotate. The machine tool is provided with a cutting assembly (not shown in the figure) for cutting the annular gear blank 110. The cutting assembly includes a reciprocating lifting arm. The lifting arm is provided with a cutting blade. The lifting arm drives the cutting blade to reciprocate up and down, which can cut the edge of the annular gear blank 110. The rotation of the turntable causes different positions of the annular gear blank 110 to contact the cutting blade, and finally the annular gear blank 110 is processed into a gear.
[0039] Specifically, during the process of machining the annular gear blank 110 into a gear, if it is to be machined into an internal gear, firstly, multiple moving blocks 200 are moved away from the center of the support plate 100, and the annular gear blank 110 is placed at the center of the upper end face of the support plate 100. Then, the extension plate 610 is rotated to adjust the buffer pad 621 on it towards the outer wall of the annular gear blank 110. Then, multiple moving blocks 200 are moved closer to the center of the support plate 100, thereby driving the extension plate 610 to move closer to each other, so that the buffer pad 621 abuts against the outer wall of the annular gear blank 110 to fix the annular gear blank 110. At this time, the cutting is started. The cutting assembly cuts the inner wall of the annular gear blank 110. If it is to be machined into an external gear, the multiple moving blocks 200 are first brought closer to each other, and the annular gear blank 110 is placed at the center of the upper end face of the support plate 100 so that the multiple moving blocks 200 are located inside the annular gear blank 110. Then, the extension plate 610 is rotated to adjust the buffer pad 621 on it to face the inner wall of the annular gear blank 110. Then, the multiple moving blocks 200 are moved away from each other so that the buffer pad 621 abuts against the inner wall of the annular gear blank 110 to fix the annular gear blank 110. At this time, the cutting assembly is started to cut the outer wall of the annular gear blank 110.
[0040] The driving component is designed to drive multiple clamping components to move relative to each other. During the process of fixing the annular tooth blank 110, it is not necessary to move the individual clamping components one by one; only the driving component needs to be operated.
[0041] The rotatable extension plate 610 allows the orientation of the pressure block 620 and the buffer pad 621 located on it to be changed. When it is necessary to contact the inner or outer side wall of the annular tooth blank 110, it can be adjusted according to specific needs, so that the buffer pad 621 can contact the annular tooth blank 110 better.
[0042] The pressure block 620 is L-shaped. Therefore, by the lifting and lowering arrangement of the pressure block 620 on the extension plate 610, one end of the pressure block 620 can abut against the upper end face of the annular tooth blank 110, thereby enabling the pressure block 620 to better fix the annular tooth blank 110, so that the clamping member can fix the annular tooth blank 110 more stably, so that the cutting assembly can cut the annular tooth blank 110.
[0043] Combination Figures 2-10 As shown, in this embodiment, the movable block 200 is provided with a lifting cavity 700 with one end open. The opening of the lifting cavity 700 is connected to a top cover 600 by screws. The end face of the top cover 600 facing the inside of the lifting cavity 700 is provided with a first slot 800 and a second slot 801. The lifting cavity 700 is provided with a movable disk 720 that slides and fits against its inner wall. The movable disk 720 can be positioned to move up and down and rotate within the lifting cavity 700. The movable disk 720 is provided with a locking block 900 that can extend into the first slot 800 or the second slot 801. The locking block 900 is fixedly connected to the movable disk 720. The locking block 900 is located in the first slot 800 or the second slot 801 and is used to adjust the orientation of the extension plate 610.
[0044] In this embodiment, an extension post 721 extending through the top cover 600 is fixedly connected to the movable disk 720. The extension plate 610 is L-shaped, and one side wall is connected to the protruding end of the extension post 721 by a countersunk screw 612. The pressure block 620 is installed on the other side wall of the extension plate 610. The bottom wall of the lifting cavity 700 is provided with a spring 710 for pushing the movable disk 720 upward. Specifically, one end of the spring 710 abuts against the bottom wall of the lifting cavity 700, and the other end abuts against the bottom surface of the movable disk 720. Thus, under the elastic force of the spring 710, the movable disk 720 will move upward. When the locking block 900 is engaged... When the extension plate 610 is in the first slot 800, it is oriented closer to the center of the support plate 100 and can be maintained in this state. When it is necessary to adjust the orientation of the extension plate 610, the extension plate 610 can be moved down to drive the moving disk 720 down, so that the locking block 900 is disengaged from the first slot 800. At this time, the extension plate 610 is rotated so that it is oriented away from the center of the support plate 100. Under the elastic force of the spring 710, the moving disk 720 is moved up, so that the locking block 900 is locked into the second slot 801. At this time, the extension plate 610 can be kept away from the center of the support plate 100, thereby completing the orientation adjustment of the buffer pad 621.
[0045] Combination Figures 6-9 As shown, in this embodiment, the extension plate 610 is L-shaped, and a sliding groove 611 is provided on the other side wall of the extension plate 610 along its height direction. The pressure block 620 is provided with a threaded post 622 that moves within the sliding groove 611. A nut 623 is threadedly connected to the threaded post 622, and the nut 623 is used to fix the threaded post 622 in the current position.
[0046] In this embodiment, the pressure block 620 is also L-shaped. At the same time, the bent part of the pressure block 620 and the buffer pad 621 are on the same side. This allows the bent part of the pressure block 620 to contact the upper end face of the annular tooth blank 110 when the pressure block 620 moves down, thus better fixing the annular tooth blank 110. When it is necessary to fix the annular tooth blank 110 of different thicknesses, the nut 623 can be loosened, and then the threaded column 622 can be slid in the sliding groove 611 to adjust the distance between the bent part of the pressure block 620 and the upper surface of the support plate 100, thereby adapting to the annular tooth blank 110 of different thicknesses. Finally, the nut 623 is tightened so that it contacts the side wall of the extension plate 610, so that the pressure block 620 is kept at the current height.
[0047] In order to prevent the pressure block 620 from rotating when sliding along the sliding groove 611, two threaded columns 622 are provided on the pressure block 620, and both pressure blocks 620 slide in contact with the sliding groove 611.
[0048] It should be noted that after the orientation of the extension plate 610 is adjusted, the pressure block 620 can be moved down so that its bottom end contacts the upper end face of the annular tooth blank 110. At this time, the extension plate 610 is restricted by the pressure block 620 and cannot move downward. Under the elastic force of the spring 710, the locking block 900 is locked into the second locking groove 801 or the first locking groove 800, and the extension plate 610 cannot move upward, so that the extension plate 610 is fixed.
[0049] The size of one side wall of the extension plate 610 is adapted to the size of the top of the moving block 200. The buffer pad 621 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the pressure block 620 away from the extension plate 610. Thus, when the moving block 200 approaches the annular tooth blank 110, the buffer pad 621 will contact the annular tooth blank 110, while the moving block 200 will not contact the annular tooth blank 110.
[0050] Combination Figures 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, a plurality of limiting frames 103 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support plate 100. The limiting frame 103 is provided with a limiting cavity. The support plate 100 is provided with a plurality of limiting grooves 102 communicating with the limiting cavity. A rotatable lead screw 301 is provided in the limiting cavity. The lead screw 301 is rotatably connected to the limiting frame 103 through a bearing. The moving block 200 is slidably fitted with the side wall of the limiting cavity. The lead screw 301 is threaded through the moving block 200. The rotation of the lead screw 301 is used to drive the moving block 200 to move along the axial direction of the lead screw 301.
[0051] In this embodiment, multiple limiting frames 103 are arranged perpendicularly to each other on the bottom surface of the support plate 100. Since the moving block 200 is restricted by the limiting cavity and the screw 301 is threaded through the moving block 200, when the screw 301 rotates, the moving block 200 will move along the axial direction of the screw 301, thereby driving the extension plate 610, the pressure block 620 and the buffer pad 621 to move accordingly, so that the buffer pad 621 contacts the inner or outer side wall of the annular tooth blank 110.
[0052] Combination Figures 1-5 As shown, in this embodiment, a drive housing 310 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support plate 100. The drive housing 310 has a drive cavity. One end of the lead screw 301 extends into the drive cavity. A rotatable rotating shaft is provided inside the drive housing 310. A cover plate 311 is bolted to the opening of the drive cavity. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the cover plate 311 through a bearing. A first bevel gear 410 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. A second bevel gear 400 is provided at the end of the lead screw 301. The first bevel gear 410 and the second bevel gear 400 are meshed together.
[0053] In this embodiment, a motor 312 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 311 by bolts. The output end of the motor 312 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft. When the motor 312 starts, the rotating shaft rotates, which drives the first bevel gear 410 to rotate, thereby causing multiple second bevel gears 400 to rotate, and finally causing multiple lead screws 301 to rotate, driving multiple moving blocks 200 to move towards or away from the center position of the support plate 100. The motor 312 has a self-locking function, that is, when the motor 312 stops, the rotating shaft will not rotate, thereby allowing the moving blocks 200 to remain in their current position.
[0054] In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the patent of the present utility model.
