Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining technology, and in particular to an internal spline and keyway milling device. Background Technology

[0002] As a key connecting component in mechanical transmission systems for transmitting torque and achieving axial sliding, internal splines are widely used in high-end equipment fields such as automobiles, machine tools, steam turbines, and construction machinery. The machining accuracy of the keyway directly affects the transmission efficiency, load-bearing capacity, and service life. Currently, the mainstream machining methods for internal spline keyways include broaching, planing, and traditional milling.

[0003] A CNC milling machine accessory mechanism capable of machining internal keyways is disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN205497082U. This CNC milling machine accessory mechanism for machining internal keyways drives the driving bevel gear shaft to rotate through an elastic coupling. The driving bevel gear meshes with the driven bevel gear, causing the driven shaft to drive the straight shank vertical milling cutter to rotate. The milling cutter changes from vertical downward feed to horizontal transverse feed, thereby realizing the milling of the internal keyway of the workpiece. However, according to the internal spline keyway milling devices provided in related fields and existing technologies, existing devices can only complete the milling of the keyway and cannot simultaneously handle the burrs or flash generated after milling. The deburring process requires re-clamping the workpiece. If there is a deviation between the clamping positioning and the milling, it is easy to cause excessive or uneven grinding of the keyway edge, which will damage the dimensional accuracy after milling, especially for high-precision internal splines.

[0025] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be further set forth in the description which follows in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, and in part will be obvious from the description or may be learned by practice of the invention.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, an internal spline keyway milling device includes a housing 1. Inside the housing 1, a first bevel gear shaft 2 and a second bevel gear shaft 3 are rotatably mounted and mesh with each other. A tool holder 4 is fixedly mounted at one end of the second bevel gear shaft 3 located outside the housing 1. A milling cutter 5 is fixedly mounted inside the tool holder 4. A grinding assembly 6 is provided on the side of the housing 1 near the milling cutter 5, which can be adjusted according to the diameter and length of the milling cutter 5. The grinding assembly 6 is located on the rear side of the milling cutter 5. A transmission assembly 7 is provided on the housing 1 for driving the grinding assembly 6 to rotate in the opposite direction to the second bevel gear shaft 3. The first bevel gear shaft 2 is arranged laterally, and the second bevel gear shaft 3 is arranged longitudinally. A coupling 8 is fixedly mounted at the end of the first bevel gear shaft 2 away from the second bevel gear shaft 3.

[0027] like Figure 7 As shown, the grinding assembly 6 includes a first shaft 601. A rod 602 is inserted into the side of the first shaft 601 away from the housing 1. The rod 602 has a hexagonal cross-section. A slot 607 is provided on the first shaft 601 corresponding to the position of the rod 602. A second shaft 603 is fixedly installed at the end of the rod 602 away from the first shaft 601. Two symmetrical receiving grooves 604 are provided on the outer surface of the second shaft 603. Movable blocks 605 are slidably provided inside each of the two receiving grooves 604. Grinding parts 606 (with file marks identical to those on a file) are longitudinally inserted into the outer sides of each movable block 605. Figure 8 As shown, the grinding part 606 has an L-shaped cross-section. A connector 6061 is fixedly provided on the side of the grinding part 606 near the movable block 605. The connector 6061 has a T-shaped cross-section. The movable block 605 has a matching connector groove 6051 at the position corresponding to the connector 6061. Since the grinding part 606 is a consumable part, the connector 6061 and the connector groove 6051 can be used to facilitate the disassembly or installation of the grinding part 606, thereby improving the convenience of replacing the grinding part 606.

[0028] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the second shaft 603 is provided with an adjustment assembly 9 for controlling the opposing sliding of the two movable blocks 605. The first shaft 601 is provided with an adjustment component 10 for controlling the sliding of the insertion rod 602. The adjustment component 10 is a threaded rod and is rotatably connected to the first shaft 601. A knob 1001 is fixedly provided at one end of the adjustment component 10 located outside the first shaft 601. A rotating hole (not labeled in the figure) is opened on the first shaft 601 corresponding to the position of the adjustment component 10 (i.e., the threaded rod). A damping layer (not shown in the figure) is provided on the inner wall of the rotating hole. The damping layer can provide damping for the adjustment component 10, so that the adjustment component 10 can maintain its original position when it is not necessary to rotate it. By rotating the adjustment component 10 through the knob 1001, the second shaft 603 can be controlled to slide, thereby adjusting the position of the grinding part 606 according to the length of the milling cutter 5 to adapt to keyways of different depths, so that one set of equipment can be compatible with the machining of internal splines of various specifications.

[0029] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the adjusting assembly 9 includes a lead screw 901 that is laterally rotatably mounted on a second shaft 603. The lead screw 901 is a left- or right-hand threaded rod. Two movable blocks 605 are each fixedly equipped with an adjusting block 902 on the side near the lead screw 901. The two adjusting blocks 902 are respectively connected to the two sections of the lead screw 901 with different helical directions. The second shaft 603 has a rotating hole (not labeled in the figure) corresponding to the lead screw 901. The inner wall of the rotating hole is provided with a damping layer (not labeled in the figure). This damping layer provides damping for the lead screw 901, allowing it to maintain its original position when rotation is not required. Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, by rotating the lead screw 901, the two adjusting blocks 902 can drive the two movable blocks 605 to move closer or further apart, thereby adjusting the distance between the two grinding parts 606 according to the diameter of the milling cutter 5 to accommodate keyways of different widths.

[0030] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the transmission assembly 7 includes a mounting shell 701 fixedly mounted on the housing 1. Synchronous gears 702 are inserted into both the first shaft 601 and the second bevel gear shaft 3 inside the housing 1. Keyways (not labeled in the figure) are formed on the outer surfaces of both the first shaft 601 and the second bevel gear shaft 3. Key blocks (not labeled in the figure) are provided at positions corresponding to the keyways on the two synchronous gears 702. The engagement between the key blocks and the keyways allows the second bevel gear shaft 3 to drive the synchronous gears 702 on its outer surface to rotate. The two synchronous gears 702 mesh with each other, allowing the synchronous gears 702 on the outer surface of the second bevel gear shaft 3 to drive the synchronous gears 702 on the outer surface of the first shaft 601 to rotate. This allows the synchronous gears 702 on the outer surface of the first shaft 601 to drive the first shaft 601 forward. The milling cutter 5 rotates, thus enabling the grinding component 6 to be driven by its own power without the need for an additional drive motor, reducing equipment energy consumption and manufacturing costs. The mounting shell 701 has a through hole (not shown in the figure) corresponding to the position of the second bevel gear shaft 3, and a rotating hole (not shown in the figure) corresponding to the position of the first shaft 601. The first shaft 601 is connected to the rotating hole through a bearing. By using the bearing, the friction of the first shaft 601 during rotation can be reduced, thereby improving the stability of the first shaft 601 during rotation. Two cover plates 7011 are fixedly installed on the top of the mounting shell 701 to close its opening. The two cover plates 7011 have notches (not labeled in the figure) corresponding to the positions of the first shaft 601 and the second bevel gear shaft 3. The adjacent notches on the two cover plates 7011 can form a circular hole.

[0031] The work process is as follows:

[0032] S1: As Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, during machining, the coupling 8 is controlled to rotate by the power source, and then the coupling 8 controls the first bevel gear shaft 2 to rotate. At this time, by utilizing the meshing between the first bevel gear shaft 2 and the second bevel gear shaft 3, the second bevel gear shaft 3 can drive the milling cutter 5 to rotate through the tool holder 4.

[0033] S2: As Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, when the second bevel gear shaft 3 rotates, the first shaft 601 can be rotated by the two synchronous gears 702, and the first shaft 601 and the second bevel gear shaft 3 rotate in opposite directions at the same time.

[0034] S3: As Figure 7As shown, when the first shaft 601 rotates, the second shaft 603 can rotate by utilizing the cooperation between the insert rod 602 and the slot 607.

[0035] S4: As Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, when the second shaft 603 rotates, the grinding component 606 directly removes the burrs in the groove while milling the keyway, without the need for a separate subsequent process. At the same time, the grinding component 6 and the milling cutter 5 rotate in opposite directions, which can efficiently remove the milling residue, microburrs and work-hardened layer.

[0036] S5: As Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, by rotating the lead screw 901, the two adjusting blocks 902 can drive the two movable blocks 605 to move closer or further apart, thereby adjusting the distance between the two grinding parts 606 according to the diameter of the milling cutter 5 to accommodate keyways of different widths. By rotating the adjusting part 10 through the knob 1001, the sliding of the second shaft 603 can be controlled, thereby adjusting the position of the grinding parts 606 according to the length of the milling cutter 5 to accommodate keyways of different depths, so that one device can be compatible with the machining of internal splines of various specifications.

[0037] The housing 1, the first bevel gear shaft 2, the second bevel gear shaft 3, the tool holder 4, the milling cutter 5, the damping layer, the bearing, the coupling 8, and the power source for controlling the rotation of the coupling 8 described in this application are all known technologies, therefore their specific structures and working principles are not described in detail.

[0038] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
