Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of motor shaft machining fixtures, and in particular to a four-axis fixture for a new energy motor shaft. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of new energy motor manufacturing, the machining accuracy and clamping efficiency of the shaft directly affect the motor performance. Traditional fixtures mostly use single-axis fixing or manual clamping methods, which have significant technical defects: First, the shaft position needs to be repeatedly adjusted during clamping, making it difficult to ensure the alignment accuracy of the axis, resulting in machining deviations; second, rigid clamping devices are prone to forming indentations on the shaft surface, especially causing serious damage to high-precision coated or thin-walled shafts; third, they lack adaptive adjustment functions and cannot adapt to the rapid changeover requirements of shafts with different diameters. Although existing automated fixtures improve efficiency through hydraulic or pneumatic clamping, they have complex structures, high maintenance costs, and insufficient clamping force control precision, which can easily cause shaft deformation. In addition, the cooling and lubrication systems of traditional fixtures have low integration, and prolonged machining can easily lead to dimensional errors due to temperature rise, making it difficult to meet the high-efficiency and high-precision machining requirements of new energy motor shafts.

[0003] For multi-axis linkage machining scenarios, existing problems are even more prominent: most fixtures have poor coordination, resulting in low machining efficiency; the clamping mechanism lacks a synchronous drive mechanism, making it impossible to achieve dynamic balance of the rotating axes; uneven distribution of clamping force easily causes machining vibration, affecting surface finish. There is an urgent need for a fixture that integrates multi-axis synchronous drive, adaptive clamping, and efficient cooling and lubrication to solve the technical bottlenecks of low precision, poor adaptability, and low efficiency of traditional devices.

The support member is disposed at the center of the top of the base plate. The first driving device is mounted on the tailstock frame.

The second driving device is tractively connected to the four-axis chuck, and the four-axis chuck faces the support member. The four-axis chuck and the pin are located on the same center line.
