[0023] 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.
[0024] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the device for installing the air volume test nozzle on the centrifugal fan guide ring of this utility model includes a servo electric cylinder 11, a crank slide 9, a C-shaped hook tongue 10, a pin 2, a guide ring positioning support plate 3, a frame 7, a PLC display 8, a slide support base 4, a control box 6, and a hook tongue slide 13.
[0025] The electric cylinder head of the servo electric cylinder 11 is an upper push rod. The upper part of the hook tongue slide 13 is arc-shaped. The air guide ring 14 is sleeved on the hook tongue slide 13. The inner side of the hook tongue slide 13 is provided with an air guide ring positioning support plate 3. The hook tongue slide 13 is located on the top of the crank slide 9. The rear end of the crank slide 9 is provided with a manual crank 12. By rotating the manual crank 12, the hook tongue slide 13 can be controlled to move left and right along a straight line. The air guide ring 14 is sleeved on the arc surface of the hook tongue slide 13. The thicker side of the arc of the air guide ring 14 is close to the air guide ring positioning support plate 3. The crank slide 9 is located on the slide support base 4.
[0026] The hook tongue slide 13 has a lower push rod on its arc-shaped top, which is connected to the bottom electric cylinder, which is located on the crank handle slide 9. The lower push rod can move vertically up and down relative to the hook tongue slide 13. A pin 2 is mounted on the lower push rod, and the pin 2 is aligned vertically with the cylinder pressure head of the servo electric cylinder 11. During operation, the test nozzle positioning pin 2 passes through the inner hole of the test nozzle, with a hole-shaft fit accuracy within 0.05mm, ensuring a high degree of concentricity between the test nozzle and the air guide ring test nozzle mounting hole during installation. During installation, the test nozzle is positioned at the air guide ring test nozzle mounting hole. The pin 2 is bolted to the lower push rod, allowing for easy replacement if the pin 2 is damaged. The pin 2 is positioned using a shaft hole, preventing incorrect or mistaken installation. Operation is simple, and positioning and installation accuracy are guaranteed.
[0027] The slide support base 4, C-shaped hook tongue 10, air guide ring positioning support plate 3, and PLC display are all located on the frame 7.
[0028] By adjusting the manual crank 12, the air guide ring 14 is brought into full contact with the air guide ring positioning support plate 3. In this way, the air volume test nozzle of the air guide ring is positioned directly below the electric cylinder pressure head, and the bottom of the air guide ring 14 is kept in contact with the vertical air guide ring positioning support plate 3, keeping the air guide ring vertical and preventing tilting, thus ensuring the accurate installation position of the air volume test nozzle.
[0029] like Figure 4As shown: The precision servo electric cylinder 11 is the core component for press-fitting the test nozzle. It achieves different displacements according to the precision electrical control of the PLC. The cylinder head retracts and extends according to the time setting to complete the press-fitting of the test nozzle. The cylinder head is also the upper push rod. The displacement of the cylinder head can be adjusted according to product needs, with a displacement accuracy of 0.01mm. The press-fitting pressure is controllable, with strong stability, ensuring product consistency. Compared with the previous manual hammering press-fitting, it has a strong advantage and provides a high degree of guarantee in terms of safety, product consistency, and quality stability.
[0030] The shorter the movement time of the electric cylinder head, the greater the displacement of the electric cylinder head. The servo electric cylinder 11 is a product that is already available on the market. The structure and principle of the servo electric cylinder are not described in detail.
[0031] Test nozzle positioning pin 2: Pin 2 passes through the inner hole of the test nozzle, with a hole-shaft fit accuracy within 0.05mm, ensuring a high degree of concentricity between the test nozzle and the test nozzle mounting hole of the air guide ring during the installation process. The test nozzle is located at the round hole position of the air guide ring 14. Pin 2 is connected to the lower push rod with bolts, making it easy to replace if the pin is damaged. It is also positioned using a shaft hole to achieve error-proof and foolproof installation. The operation is simple and ensures positioning and installation accuracy.
[0032] The air guide ring positioning support plate and the upper and lower push rod mounting base plate are made of high-strength impact-resistant Cr12 material, which has strong stability. The surface is finely ground by a high-precision grinding machine, and the flatness accuracy reaches 0.01mm. Finally, it undergoes heat treatment and electroplating treatment to prevent rust, so as to extend the service life of the equipment and effectively reduce the failure rate and product stability during the pressing process.
[0033] The upper and lower push rods of this device are adjusted via an external display connected to a PLC control system. The displacement of the push rod pressure head is changed by adjusting the up and down time of the upper push rod, and the speed of the test nozzle pin extension is adjusted by adjusting the up and down time of the lower push rod, preventing accidental hand injury to employees. The overall operation allows real-time monitoring of the status of each push rod during the test nozzle pressing process. If the preset value is not reached, an alarm will be automatically triggered. It is also equipped with a test nozzle pressing counting function to prevent product omissions.
[0034] 9-inch crank slide Figure 5 As shown, eight precision positioning blocks 91 are fixedly connected to the base plate. The positioning blocks 91 are located on one side of the crank slide 9 to ensure the long-term stable operation accuracy of the crank slide 9, making the accuracy accurate and the adjustment convenient and safe. The base plate has a reserved overall slide positioning groove 92 to ensure that the installation accuracy meets the standard.
[0035] The crank slide 9 is located in the slide positioning groove 92. The crank slide 9 includes a rotating shaft 93, a nut 94 and a connecting frame 95. When the manual crank 12 is rotated, the rotating shaft 93 is driven to rotate. The rotation direction of the nut 94 is restricted, and it makes linear motion of the lead screw nut, producing left and right lateral motion.
[0036] The cylindrical part at the bottom of the ejector pin 2 is a push rod, located at the top of the hook tongue slide 13, and can move up and down relative to the hook tongue slide 13.
[0037] The bottom of the lower push rod is equipped with an electric cylinder or hydraulic cylinder to control the vertical linear movement of the lower push rod relative to the hook tongue slide 13; the electric cylinder or hydraulic cylinder is located on the connecting frame 95.
[0038] C-type hook tongue: The hook tongue is installed on the upper and lower push rods. It is manufactured in one piece to prevent the cumulative error caused by the processing and assembly of multiple parts from causing abnormal accuracy. The same reference is used when the upper and lower push rods are installed to ensure that the concentricity error of the two push rods is less than 0.01mm. The hook tongue and the lead screw crank slide are connected by multiple positioning to ensure operational reliability and accuracy stability.
[0039] The working principle of the device for installing the air volume test nozzle on the centrifugal fan guide ring is as follows:
[0040] 1. Turn on the power, set manual or automatic operation, set the downward time of the upper push rod (the shorter the time, the longer the stroke) and other parameters.
[0041] 2. Place the test nozzle on the lower push rod, and then put on the air guide ring.
[0042] 3. Loosen the wrench on the back of the machine counterclockwise, adjust the position of the push rod until the air guide ring base is in contact with the steel plate, and then tighten the wrench.
