Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tapping equipment technology, specifically a tapping device for clutch die castings with positioning function. Background Technology
[0002] Tapping, a crucial process in machining, is primarily used to create high-precision internal threads within pre-drilled holes to meet the assembly requirements of components. Since its market introduction, tapping equipment has been favored by a wide range of users for its advantages such as portability, flexibility, and efficiency. In fields like automotive manufacturing, aerospace, and precision instruments, the precision and efficiency of the tapping process directly affect product reliability and lifespan. Especially with the advancement of automotive lightweighting trends, die-cast parts, due to their high strength and ability to form complex structures, are widely used in critical components such as clutches and engine housings. However, the die-casting process cannot directly form high-precision thread structures during molding, thus requiring supplementary tapping. However, existing tapping equipment tends to accumulate metal chips in the working area during processing, which not only reduces equipment stability but may also pose a threat to operator safety, and also presents problems such as inaccurate positioning and movement of die-cast parts during the tapping process. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tapping device for clutch die-cast parts with positioning function to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A tapping device for clutch die-casting parts with positioning function includes a main body, a gantry frame mounted on the top of the main body, a tapping mechanism mounted on the gantry frame, the tapping mechanism including a first lead screw slide mounted on the crossbeam of the gantry frame, a second lead screw slide mounted on the first lead screw slide, a drive motor mounted on the second lead screw slide, the output shaft of the drive motor connected to a tapping shaft via a coupling, a tap mounted at the bottom of the tapping shaft, a third lead screw slide mounted at the bottom of the main body, the third lead screw slide connected to the first lead screw slide via the gantry frame, and a positioning mechanism and a chip removal mechanism also provided on the main body.
[0006] Further specifying, the positioning mechanism includes a positioning seat installed on the main body of the equipment, the positioning seat having a positioning groove adapted to the bottom contour of the clutch die casting, the positioning seat having a positioning pin, and the positioning seat also having a clamping mechanism installed. The positioning mechanism facilitates better positioning of the die casting and makes it easier for the equipment to tap.
[0007] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism includes a fixed plate and a movable plate mounted on the positioning seat, with a guide rod connecting the fixed plate and the movable plate. A rotating rod is connected to the left side of the guide rod. The clamping mechanism facilitates better fixation of the die-cast parts and makes it easier for the equipment to perform tapping.
[0008] Further specifying, the chip removal mechanism includes a slide groove installed on the front side of the positioning seat. Slide rails are installed on both sides of the slide groove, and a crossbar is slidably connected between the two slide rails. Brush bristles are provided on the crossbar, and a rack is connected to the crossbar. A motor is installed inside the positioning seat, and a gear is connected to the motor. The gear meshes with the rack. The chip removal mechanism prevents the accumulation of waste chips and avoids disrupting the operation of the equipment.
[0009] Furthermore, the main body of the equipment is also equipped with a waste collection trough, which is located below the positioning seat and is connected to a chip removal pipe at the bottom to prevent metal chips generated during processing from accumulating in the working area. Accumulation of metal chips can easily cause instability of the equipment and pose a threat to the safety of operators.
[0010] Furthermore, the main body of the equipment is also equipped with a protective cover, which surrounds the positioning seat and the tapping mechanism. The protective cover can better protect the workers.
[0011] The main advantages of this utility model are:
[0012] 1. The clamping mechanism can better fix the die-casting parts, making it easier for the equipment to tap the threads and preventing the die-casting parts from moving around during the tapping process, which would lead to tapping failure.
[0013] 2. The positioning mechanism facilitates better positioning of the die-cast parts and makes it easier for the equipment to tap the threads.
[0014] 3. The chip removal mechanism can prevent metal chips generated during processing from accumulating in the work area. Accumulated metal chips can easily cause equipment instability and pose a threat to the safety of operators. Attached Figure Description
