Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of automotive forging processing equipment, and in particular relates to a surface processing fixture for automotive aluminum forgings. Background Technology

[0002] With the trend of lightweighting in automobiles, aluminum forgings are widely used in key parts such as chassis, body, and power system due to their advantages of light weight and high strength. However, aluminum forgings are prone to forming a loose oxide layer on their surface, resulting in poor corrosion resistance. It is necessary to improve corrosion resistance through technologies such as chemical conversion, anodizing, and coating spraying. During the surface treatment process, the clamping stability of the fixture and the protection effect on the workpiece directly determine the final corrosion resistance quality. Some existing aluminum forgings have non-parallel errors at both ends after forging, which often results in one side of the forging being fixed while the other side cannot be effectively clamped, affecting processing accuracy and efficiency.

[0028] Example 5: This embodiment provides a surface processing fixture for automotive aluminum forgings, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0029] The rotation angle of the upper housing 9 with the fixed shaft 11 as the fulcrum ranges from 5° to 10°.

[0030] As can be seen from this embodiment, the rotation angle range of the upper housing 9 with the fixed shaft 11 as the fulcrum is 5° to 10°, which can accommodate the unevenness error of 0.1-0.5mm on the surface of the aluminum forging.

[0031] Example 6: This embodiment provides a surface processing fixture for automotive aluminum forgings, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0032] The lower housing 7 has an arc guide groove 18 on its side.

[0033] As can be seen from this embodiment, the side of the lower housing 7 is provided with an arc guide groove 18. The arc guide groove 18 is used for the arc portion of the outer side of the fixed shaft 11 to be inserted, restricting the radial offset of the fixed shaft 11, so as to achieve a stable connection between the fixed shaft 11 and the lower housing 7 and ensure rotational stability.

[0034] Example 7: This embodiment provides a surface processing fixture for automotive aluminum forgings, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0035] Several clamping blocks 19 are mounted on the opposite surfaces of the fixed clamping plate 3 and the upper housing 9.

[0036] As can be seen in this embodiment, several clamping blocks 19 are assembled on the opposing surfaces of the fixed clamping plate 3 and the upper housing 9. The clamping blocks 19 are serrated blocks, which are made of 40Cr steel that has undergone quenching treatment. 40Cr steel has good toughness and is not easy to break when clamped. It will not damage the surface of the aluminum parts due to excessive hardness and pressure. It is suitable for clamping scenarios such as aluminum forgings for automotive chassis that have certain requirements for surface precision but do not require extreme anti-scratch. Nylon material is also selected, which can completely avoid indentation and scratches when in contact with aluminum forgings, and is suitable for high surface precision aluminum forgings such as automotive exterior parts.

[0037] Example 8: This embodiment provides a surface processing fixture for automotive aluminum forgings, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0038] A hydraulic rod 20 is provided at the end of the movable block 5 away from the fixed block 2, and a hydraulic cylinder 21 is provided on one side of the hydraulic rod 20.

[0039] As can be seen in this embodiment, a hydraulic rod 20 is provided at the end of the movable block 5 away from the fixed block 2, and a hydraulic cylinder 21 is provided on one side of the hydraulic rod 20. The piston rod end of the hydraulic rod 20 is detachably connected to the connecting hole opened on the movable block 5 through a pin, and the connecting part is provided with an anti-corrosion sealing sleeve. The hydraulic rod 20 is driven to extend and retract by the hydraulic cylinder 21, which drives the movable block 5 to move along the guide rail 4 towards the fixed block 2, thereby realizing the clamping action of the automotive aluminum forging. It can be adapted to aluminum forgings of different thicknesses and avoids damage to the workpiece due to excessive clamping force.

[0040] Working principle: The aluminum forging to be processed is placed between the fixed clamping plate 3 and the upper housing 9, so that one side of the aluminum forging first contacts the clamping block 19 of the fixed clamping plate 3. The hydraulic cylinder 21 drives the hydraulic rod 20 to push the moving block 5 along the guide rail 4 towards the fixed block 2, which drives the adjustable clamping plate 6 to gradually approach the aluminum forging. If the two ends of the workpiece are not parallel, the upper housing 9 will be subjected to a tilting reaction force when it contacts the aluminum forging. At this time, the upper housing 9 will rotate around the fixed shaft 11. The vertical groove gap 16 and the horizontal groove gap 17 provide space for rotation until the clamping block 19 of the upper housing 9 is completely in contact with the surface of the aluminum forging, thus achieving the clamping effect. Subsequently, the corrosion resistance of the aluminum forging is improved by coating and spraying technologies.

[0041] The embodiments of this application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms are within the protection scope of this application.
