Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining, and in particular to a clamping fixture for joint workpieces. Background Technology

[0002] In aerospace, precision instruments, and other fields, various complex, irregularly shaped joint workpieces are widely used. These workpieces are typically designed to meet functional requirements, have irregular external contours, and lack datum planes or locating holes for direct clamping on machine tools. The holes on their top lugs need to meet extremely high requirements for coaxiality, positional accuracy, and dimensional precision. In existing technologies, the clamping and machining of such workpieces typically employ the following methods: 1. Special large fixture method: A complex special fixture is designed and manufactured to fit the shape of the workpiece. The workpiece is wrapped and fixed by contour positioning surface. Although the positioning is reliable, the fixture itself has a complex structure, high design and manufacturing cost, long production cycle, and is usually only applicable to a single product with very poor versatility. It is not economical for small batch and multi-variety production mode.

[0003] 2. Modular fixture assembly method: Using standard modular fixture components, a positioning and clamping structure is temporarily assembled on the platform. Although this method is highly flexible, the assembly process depends on the operator's experience, and the stability and repeatability of positioning accuracy are difficult to guarantee. It cannot meet the stringent requirements of high-precision products such as aerospace parts. At the same time, each clamping requires readjustment and verification, resulting in low production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, the existing technology lacks a dedicated tooling solution that can quickly, accurately, and reliably clamp such non-reference irregular joint workpieces and ensure the boring accuracy of their top lugs and high machining efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the technical problem that irregularly shaped workpieces are difficult to clamp due to the lack of clamping reference, which affects the processing efficiency and quality of the surface and top lugs, and to provide a clamping fixture for joint workpieces.

[0006] This utility model provides a workpiece clamping fixture for joints, including a base, on which a test boring seat and two support blocks are provided; The support block is adapted to the shape of the lower inner cavity of the joint workpiece, and the height of the support block is greater than the depth of the lower inner cavity of the joint workpiece. The support block is provided with mounting holes, and the mounting holes are equipped with fastening bolts. The test boring base is detachably equipped with a test boring block, which has a test boring hole that is adapted to the ear hole of the top ear of the joint workpiece.

[0007] This utility model discloses a fixture for clamping a connector workpiece. First, the base is fixed to the machine tool worktable. Then, the connector workpiece is placed on two support blocks, so that the inner cavity of the lower part of the connector workpiece matches the contour of the support blocks. The process lugs on both sides of the connector workpiece are pressed and fixed to the support blocks through the mounting holes and fastening bolts on the support blocks. Next, the test boring block is installed on the test boring seat and pressed and fixed. Then, the tool setting and coordinate setting of the boring tool are performed with the test boring hole on the test boring block as a reference, and test boring can be performed to verify the program. Finally, the test boring block is removed, the machining program is run, and the lug hole of the top lug of the connector workpiece can be precision bored.

[0008] Preferably, the base is provided with a plurality of positioning holes, and the positioning holes are equipped with positioning pins.

[0009] The positioning holes and positioning pins enable the base to be quickly and accurately positioned on the machine tool table, ensuring the accurate relative position of the tooling and the machine tool, improving the clamping repeatability and positioning accuracy, and reducing the alignment time.

[0010] Preferably, the base is provided with a plurality of fastening holes, and the fastening holes are equipped with clamping bolts.

[0011] The fastening holes and clamping bolts allow the base to be firmly pressed onto the machine tool table, effectively preventing tooling movement or vibration during machining, ensuring cutting stability, and thus improving the quality of hole machining.

[0012] Preferably, the support block includes a bearing plate, the top of which is provided with a plurality of rectangular tubes, the bottom of which are connected to the base.

[0013] The support block, composed of a bearing plate and a rectangular tube, has sufficient rigidity and load-bearing capacity, reducing the risk of deformation; at the same time, the rectangular tube design reduces the overall weight of the tooling, lowers the cost, and facilitates handling and operation.

[0014] Preferably, the support plate and the base are structural components made of No. 45 steel.

[0015] 45 steel is selected and tempered to HRC28-32. It has good strength and toughness, excellent machinability, is easy to manufacture and repair, and is inexpensive. This material can be tempered to obtain higher comprehensive mechanical properties, making it very suitable as a base material for tooling fixtures. It achieves a balance between performance and economy and practicality.

[0016] Preferably, the support plate has a recessed area on the side away from the joint workpiece, and the mounting hole is located in the recessed area.

[0017] The top web of the joint workpiece has a low thickness. To ensure the strength of the process lugs, the thickness of the process lugs needs to be greater than the thickness of the web. Therefore, a step is created between the process lugs and the top web of the joint workpiece. By setting a recessed area on the bearing plate that matches the aforementioned step, the process lugs of the joint workpiece can fall smoothly into the recessed area, ensuring that the web of the joint workpiece can fit against the bearing plate and increasing the clamping stability of the joint workpiece.

[0018] Preferably, the test boring block has a circular groove on the side away from the support block, and the test boring block is disposed in the circular groove.

[0019] The test boring block and the test boring seat are detachably connected, which facilitates the quick installation and replacement of the test boring block. At the same time, the circular groove provides a precise positioning reference for the test boring block, which facilitates the clamping of the test boring block.

[0020] Preferably, the test boring block is provided with a plurality of limiting bolts, which are arranged around the circular groove. Each limiting bolt is provided with a pressure plate, which is used to restrict the test boring block within the circular groove.

[0021] The limit bolts and pressure plates form an adjustable clamping mechanism, which allows for fine adjustment of the clamping force according to the size of the test boring block, ensuring that the test boring block is reliably fixed and preventing loosening during processing; the surrounding design makes the clamping force evenly distributed and improves stability.

[0022] Preferably, the top of the test boring machine is provided with a locking slot, which extends through the circular groove.

[0023] This facilitates the installation or removal of the test boring block in the circular groove.

[0024] Preferably, the test boring seat has a clearance hole on the side away from the circular groove, and the clearance hole communicates with the circular groove.

[0025] The design of the clearance hole can reduce interference during the boring process; at the same time, it allows chips and coolant to be discharged, preventing accumulation that affects accuracy and extending the service life of the tooling.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. This utility model provides a workpiece clamping fixture for joints. By setting a support block that matches the shape of the lower inner cavity of the workpiece, it can achieve fast and accurate positioning and stable support by utilizing the inner cavity structure of the workpiece itself, effectively solving the technical problem that irregular workpieces are difficult to fix reliably due to the lack of external clamping reference. 2. This utility model provides a workpiece clamping fixture for a connector. By setting a detachable test boring block and its test boring hole on the test boring seat, it can provide a precise tool setting reference for the boring tool and pre-verify the machining parameters, effectively ensuring the coaxiality and positional accuracy of the top lug hole, and solving the technical problem that it is difficult to guarantee the machining quality of high-precision boring. 3. This utility model provides a clamping fixture for joint workpieces. Through the rigid support of the support block and the quick assembly and disassembly design of the test boring block, the workpiece clamping and tool setting process can be significantly simplified, repeated adjustments can be avoided, and the overall processing efficiency of irregular joint workpieces can be effectively improved.
