Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mandrel and bushing technology, specifically a split flange quick-release mandrel and bushing assembly. Background Technology
[0002] With industrial development and technological advancements, mechanical devices are also being upgraded. During the use of machinery, it is inevitable to transmit the output power of the motor to the machine. This requires connecting the motor to the output device. In fields such as mechanical transmission and equipment connection, the combination of spindle and bushing is a common structure for positioning components, transmitting torque, or supporting loads. Flanges are often used as connecting parts to fix the assembly to the equipment frame, housing, etc., to ensure the overall stability of the assembly. However, in the use of traditional spindle and bushing assemblies and flanges, the spindle and flange are often fixedly welded. In some narrow spaces, there is often not enough space to disassemble the spindle and flange, making it difficult to remove the spindle and requiring the disassembly of other parts to free up a lot of space. This makes maintenance and repair very inconvenient and wastes a lot of time. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a split flange quick-disassembly mandrel and bushing assembly to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the disassembly of the mandrel and flange is very time-consuming due to insufficient space.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a split-type flange quick-release mandrel and bushing assembly, comprising a mandrel body and a first flange block. A first end cap is fitted onto the outer surface of one end of the mandrel body, and a spline head is fixedly installed at the end of the mandrel body away from the first end cap. An outer spherical bearing is installed through the outer surface of the mandrel body, and the outer spherical bearing and the mandrel body are interference-fitted. The mandrel body and the outer spherical bearing are fixed together by a set screw. The first flange block is located at the end near the spline head. A second flange block is placed against the outer surface of the first flange block, and bolt groups are installed through both ends of the second flange block and the first flange block. The outer surfaces of the bolt groups are respectively against the outer surfaces of the first flange block and the second flange block, and the first flange block and the second flange block are penetrated by the spline head. A pressing and fastening mechanism is provided between the spline head and the first flange block and the second flange block.
[0005] Preferably, the compression fastening mechanism includes: a conical sleeve, the conical sleeve being a semi-circular cone, and two conical sleeves fitting against the outer surface of a spline head, the spline head being a conical design, the outer surface of the conical sleeve fitting against the outer surface of a first flange block and a second flange block, the outer surfaces of the first flange block and the second flange block respectively being fixedly installed with protruding semi-rings, the outer surfaces of the protruding semi-rings fitting against each other, and the protruding semi-rings being inserted into another flange.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, through the tapered design of the spline head and the snap-fit of the tapered sleeve, after the first flange block and the second flange block are fixed by the bolt group, they can be connected and fixed with another flange. As the first flange block and the second flange block are tightened and fixed, the spline head and the tapered sleeve can be pressed together. When the first flange block and the second flange block are fixed to the flange, the mandrel body can be fixed at the same time. Through the insertion of the protruding half ring, the connection strength of the first flange block and the second flange block is further improved.
[0007] Preferably, a second end cap is fitted onto the outer surface of the outer spherical bearing, and fixing bolts are respectively installed through the outer surfaces of the second end cap and the first end cap. The fixing bolts are threadedly connected to the first end cap and the second end cap, and the outer surface of the first end cap is fitted onto the outer surface of the outer spherical bearing.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution and using the outer spherical bearing, the spindle body can be loosened and rotated freely after the first flange block and the second flange block are removed.
[0009] Preferably, the outer surfaces of the first end cap and the second end cap are respectively fixedly provided with guide protrusion rings, and the side of the guide protrusion ring away from the second end cap is designed with a chamfer. The first end cap and the second end cap are connected to the machine, and the guide protrusion ring is inserted into the outer surface of the machine.
[0010] By using the above technical solution, after the first end cover and the second end cover are fixed to the surface of the machine by the use of the guide protrusion ring, the guide protrusion ring can be inserted into the surface of the machine. The insertion of the guide protrusion ring further improves the stability and firmness of the first end cover and the second end cover.
[0011] Preferably, an outer retaining spring is fitted onto the outer surface of the mandrel body, and the outer surface of the outer retaining spring is in contact with the outer surface of the outer spherical bearing. The outer retaining spring is located inside the first end cover and the second end cover.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer snap ring is installed on the outer surface of the spindle body, which can facilitate the positioning of the outer spherical bearing and improve the accuracy of the installation of the outer spherical bearing.
[0013] Preferably, the outer surface of the spline head is uniformly provided with grooves, and the grooves engage with the tapered sleeve. The outer surface of the tapered sleeve is uniformly provided with limiting grooves. The outer surfaces of the first flange block and the second flange block are uniformly provided with fitting blocks, and the fitting blocks engage with the limiting grooves.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, through the engagement of the groove and the tapered sleeve, and the engagement of the limiting groove on the outer surface of the tapered sleeve and the fitting block, when the mandrel body drives the first flange block and the second flange block to rotate, the first flange block and the second flange block can be firmly fixed to the mandrel body, so that the spline head, the first flange block and the second flange block will not slip during rotation.

The plug-in rings are concentrically designed, and the first flange block and the second flange block are engaged. A screw is installed through the outer surface of the plug-in ring.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, after the first flange block and the second flange block are fixed together by the use of the plug ring, the screw can further lock the first flange block and the second flange block by passing through the plug ring, reducing the probability of the first flange block and the second flange block being damaged or broken during use.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the split flange quick-release mandrel and bushing assembly:
[0018] 1. By inserting bolts into both ends of the first and second flange blocks and tightening them, the first and second flange blocks can be fixedly installed on the outer surface of the mandrel body. Then, the tapered sleeves are snapped into the outer surface of the spline head. Subsequently, by installing and fixing the first and second flange blocks to the other flange, the spline head can contact the flange, and the mandrel body, the first flange block, and the second flange block can be firmly fixed together without welding. This greatly reduces the space required for operation and greatly improves the convenience of installation and disassembly.
[0019] 2. By engaging the first flange block and the second flange block, the insertion rings at both ends of the first flange block and the second flange block can overlap each other. Then, the screw is inserted into the mounting holes of the first flange block and the second flange block and into the insertion ring, and fixed to the flange. This allows the protruding half-ring to be inserted into the flange. With the screw inserted into the insertion ring, the groove and the tapered sleeve engage, and the limiting groove and the fitting block engage, the first flange block and the second flange block can improve the firmness after connection through the protruding half-ring and the insertion ring, and prevent slippage during power transmission.
[0020] 3. The first end cover and the second end cover can be fixedly connected together by fixing bolts. With the use of the external snap ring, the outer spherical bearing can be quickly and accurately positioned when it is fixed on the outer surface of the spindle body. When the first end cover and the second end cover are fixed on the surface of the machine, the guide protrusion ring will be inserted into the surface of the machine, which improves the firmness of the first end cover and the second end cover after installation, and improves the convenience of installing the first end cover and the second end cover on the outer surface of the outer spherical bearing and the spindle body.
