Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of axle milling fixture technology, specifically to an auxiliary fixture for axle milling of automobiles. Background Technology

[0002] During the production of axle shafts with splines, the axle shafts are clamped using a one-clamp-one-support method. The chuck is positioned approximately 100mm away from the spline on the shaft. Since the axle shaft is a long shaft with a flange at the tail end, the weight of the tail end affects the axle shaft during milling. This can cause the tail end of the axle shaft to wobble, potentially loosening the clamping point of the chuck and significantly impacting processing efficiency and quality.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent application CN210937502U discloses an auxiliary clamp for milling gears on an automotive half-shaft, including a clamping body and a collar. A connecting rod is slidably connected inside the control cavity, a first wedge block is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the collar, and an eccentric tube is welded to one side of the outer surface of the collar. A locking pin is slidably connected inside the eccentric tube. This technical solution increases the contact area between the clamping plate and the half-shaft by setting a clamping plate with an arc shape that is adapted to the automotive half-shaft, thereby improving the stability of the half-shaft after clamping and making it less prone to loosening and shaking. Through the cooperation between the rotating handle, the inclined plate, and the locking pin, when the half-shaft is clamped, turning the rotating handle causes both the rotating rod and the inclined plate to rotate, allowing the locking pin to insert into the positioning groove. The structure is simple, quickly locks the collar, and clamps the half-shaft in a short time. The clamping of the half-shaft and the locking of the collar can be performed continuously, making the clamping operation convenient and fast.

[0004] However, the following problems still exist in this technical solution: the half shaft is clamped by a spring in this technical solution, but the elasticity of the spring will gradually decrease under long-term stretching, and eventually it will lose its elasticity. The spring that has lost its elasticity will not be able to clamp the half shaft, which has certain limitations in use. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an auxiliary fixture for milling gears on automobile half shafts. The clamping mechanism can clamp the automobile half shafts, which is convenient for the next step of operation. The disassembly mechanism can remove the rubber pad from the clamping plate for easy replacement, thereby solving the above-mentioned shortcomings in the technology.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an auxiliary fixture for milling gears on automobile half-shafts, including a support plate, wherein the support plate is provided with a clamping mechanism for clamping automobile half-shafts that are being milled.

[0007] Preferably, the clamping mechanism includes a placement groove inside the support plate, with clamping plates on both sides inside the placement groove. Both sides inside the support plate are movably connected to bidirectional threaded rods via bearings. Each bidirectional threaded rod has a limit plate threaded to both ends. A connecting rod is fixedly provided on one side of the limit plate, and one end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the clamping plate for clamping the automobile half shaft.

[0008] Preferably, each of the two bidirectional threaded rods has a pulley extending through one end, and the two pulleys are covered by the same belt. One of the bidirectional threaded rods has a motor fixedly installed at one end to drive the bidirectional threaded rod to rotate.

[0009] Preferably, a rubber pad is provided on the side of each of the two clamping plates that are close to each other. The clamping plate is provided with a disassembly mechanism for disassembling the rubber pad. The disassembly mechanism includes three insertion slots opened on the clamping plate. Three insertion plates are fixedly provided on the side of the rubber pad that is close to the clamping plate. The insertion slots are adapted to the insertion plates. Two first threaded holes are opened on the clamping plate. Two second threaded holes are opened on the rubber pad. The first threaded holes and the second threaded holes that are connected to each other are internally threaded with the same first bolt for disassembling the rubber pad.

[0010] Preferably, the support plate is provided with a support mechanism on one side to facilitate the worker's handling of the support plate. The support mechanism includes a first support rod on one side of the support plate, an installation groove inside the first support rod, a second support rod inserted into the installation groove, a plurality of third threaded holes on the second support rod, a fourth threaded hole on one side of the first support rod, and the fourth threaded hole and the third threaded holes connected to each other are threaded with the same second bolt, which facilitates the worker's handling of the support plate.

[0011] The technical effects and advantages provided by this utility model in the above technical solution are as follows: Place the car half-shaft inside the placement slot, then start the motor. The motor can drive the bidirectional threaded rod to rotate, which in turn drives the limiting plate to move. The movement of the limiting plate can then drive the clamping plate to move. Move the two clamping plates to both sides of the car half-shaft. The clamping plates can then clamp the car half-shaft for easy operation in the next step. Rotate the first bolt to unscrew it from the first and second threaded holes. Then pull the rubber pad to pull the plug plate on the back of the rubber pad out from the plug groove. This will allow you to remove the rubber pad from the clamping plate for easy replacement. Attached Figure Description
