For example, patent application No. 201621282337.7 discloses a knurling machine, it includes knurling tooth and carousel subassembly, the carousel subassembly includes the revolution axle, cup joint the carousel on the revolution axle and rotate the axis of rotation that sets up on the carousel, the axis of rotation has two at least, the axle center of all axes of rotation is in the same circumference of carousel, the axle head protrusion of axis of rotation is used for the suit to wait the knurling work piece on the carousel surface, the medial surface of knurling tooth is the arc face of hobbing, the arc face of hobbing is tangent with the work piece of waiting to knurling of axis end of rotation. The workpiece to be machined is sleeved on the shaft end of the rotating shaft, then the rotating disc rotates to convey the workpiece, and when the rotating disc rotates until the workpiece to be machined is contacted with the arc-shaped knurling surface of the knurling teeth, the rotating shaft is driven to rotate by external force, so that the outer circumferential side surface of the workpiece to be machined is machined to form a tooth shape.

Taking hobbing of the lower end of a workpiece as an example, generally, different workpieces have different design requirements for the length of teeth to be formed, and the length of the hobbing of the existing knurling machine structure similar to the knurling machine structure is fixed and unchanged, so that the applicability is poor. For the situation, conventionally, a fixed mounting seat is arranged on the side portion of the rotary table, then an open slot is arranged on the side portion of the mounting seat, the knurled teeth are clamped in the open slot and fixed with the mounting seat in a screw tightening mode, and when the length of the knurled teeth required by the lower end of the workpiece is different, the knurled teeth with corresponding tooth lengths are directly replaced for use.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention aims to solve the problems in the prior art, and provides a gear hobbing machine which solves the problem of poor applicability.

The purpose of the invention can be realized by the following technical scheme:

hobbing machine, including the roof, rotate transmission shaft and circumference that sets up on the roof and fix the epaxial carousel of transmission, the roof on be equipped with the cooperation board that parallels with the carousel in the carousel lateral part, cooperation board tip has an arc surface, a serial communication port, the carousel on the side be equipped with the cavity, be equipped with the disc in the cavity, the disc outer peripheral face has the tooth of continuous distribution, the disc sets up with the arc surface is concentric and form the shaping passageway between disc outer peripheral face and the arc surface, on the transmission shaft was fixed in to disc circumference, the disc can be followed the transmission shaft and slided and can fix a position after sliding.

When the device is used, a workpiece to be machined is placed on the rotary table at one end part needing gear hobbing, and the rotary table rotates to convey the workpiece. When a workpiece enters the forming channel, the arc surface at the end part of the matching plate has a supporting function on the workpiece, so that the outer peripheral surface of the lower end part of the workpiece can be extruded and simultaneously driven to move along the arc surface by means of the teeth on the outer side of the synchronously rotating disc in the continuous rotating process of the rotating disc, and the hobbing processing is finished. The hobbing machine utilizes the disc with the continuous teeth on the outer peripheral surface as a processing part for hobbing, and then the disc is matched with the upper disc to slide along the transmission shaft to adjust the height of the disc extending out of the concave cavity, so that the hobbing machine can adjust the hobbing length on the outer peripheral surface of the lower end part of a workpiece, and the applicability is well improved. Moreover, compared with the gear hobbing length change through a replacement mode, the gear hobbing machine adopts the same disc all the time, so that the applicability is improved, and meanwhile, the production cost is lower.

In the gear hobbing machine, the disc is provided with a through connecting hole along the axial direction of the transmission shaft, and the disc is provided with an adjusting screw, the rod part of the adjusting screw is downwards in the connecting hole in a threaded connection mode, and the length of the rod part of the adjusting screw is larger than the thickness of the disc.

When the turntable does not work, the transmission shaft is kept still, and the disc and the turntable are both limited to rotate by the transmission shaft. At the moment, the adjusting screw is rotated along the screwing direction, the adjusting screw moves to abut against the bottom wall of the cavity along the thread, then the adjusting screw rotates to drive the disc to move upwards through the thread due to the fact that the adjusting screw cannot move, and therefore the height of the disc extending out of the cavity is raised, and the length of the hobbing is lengthened. When the adjusting screw is rotated in the opposite direction, the adjusting screw moves upwards to generate a gap between the end part of the adjusting screw and the bottom wall of the cavity, so that the disc can sink, the height of the disc extending out of the cavity is reduced, and the length of the hobbing is shortened.

In the gear hobbing machine, the number of the adjusting screws is a plurality, and the adjusting screws are uniformly distributed around the transmission shaft.

Through the arrangement, the stability of the disc after the length of the hobbing is adjusted can be ensured, and the situations of deflection or local sinking and the like are avoided.

In the gear hobbing machine, the upper end part of the transmission shaft is in threaded connection with a locking piece, and the locking piece abuts against the upper side face of the disc.

When the length of the hobbing needs to be adjusted to be long, the locking piece is firstly loosened to enable the distance between the locking piece and the disc to be generated, and then the adjusting screw is rotated along the screwing direction to enable the adjusting screw to move along the thread until the end face abuts against the bottom wall of the concave cavity. At this time, since the movement of each adjusting screw is blocked by the bottom wall of the cavity, the adjusting screws are continuously rotated in the same direction to drive the disc to slide upwards along the transmission shaft by using the threads, so that the height of the disc extending out of the cavity is increased, and the hobbing length at the lower end of the workpiece is increased. After the disc is raised to the required position, the locking piece is screwed to fix the turntable, the transmission shaft and the disc. When the length of the hobbing needs to be shortened, the adjusting screw is rotated in the opposite direction, the adjusting screw can move upwards relative to the disc, then the locking piece is continuously rotated in the screwing direction, the disc and the adjusting screw are automatically pressed downwards by the locking piece, the disc is retracted into the concave cavity, the height of the disc extending out of the concave cavity is reduced, and therefore the length of the hobbing at the lower end of the workpiece is shortened. Through the arrangement, the hobbing machine can adjust the hobbing length by utilizing the disc to slide up and down along the transmission shaft so as to improve the applicability, and can also realize accurate adjustment by utilizing threads.

In the gear hobbing machine, the locking part comprises a locking screw with a rod part in the upper end part of the transmission shaft in threaded connection and a pressing sleeve sleeved outside the rod part of the locking screw, and the pressing sleeve is clamped between the disc and the head part of the locking screw.

When the locking screw is unscrewed, the disc is not positioned, so that a worker can rotate the adjusting screw until the end of the adjusting screw abuts against the bottom wall of the cavity and then can automatically drive the disc to move upwards by means of the thread, and the height of the disc extending out of the cavity is raised to increase the length of the hobbing. In addition, after the height of the disc is adjusted, the pressing sleeve can be abutted to the disc through screwing the locking screw to position the disc and the transmission shaft, and the pressing sleeve can be pressed down through screwing the locking screw to enable the disc to sink into the concave cavity to shorten the length of the hobbing in the state that the adjusting screw rotates in the unscrewing direction.

In the gear hobbing machine, the pressing sleeve is cylindrical with an opening at the lower end, and a through hole for the rod part of the locking screw to pass through is arranged in the center of the upper end of the pressing sleeve in a penetrating manner.

The cylindrical structure enables the force applied on the pressing sleeve by the locking screw to be uniformly applied to the disc through the pressing sleeve, so that the disc can be kept stable and not deflected during gear hobbing, and the gear hobbing precision is ensured.

In the gear hobbing machine, as another technical scheme, the locking piece comprises a locking nut which is in threaded connection with the outer end of the upper end of the transmission shaft.

In the gear hobbing machine, the center of the disc is provided with a round hole matched with the transmission shaft in a penetrating mode, the inner wall of the round hole is provided with a first key groove with two ends penetrating through, and the transmission shaft and the disc are circumferentially fixed through a flat key matched with the first key groove.

Through the matching of the flat key and the first key groove, the transmission shaft and the disc are fixed in the circumferential direction and can rotate synchronously. Meanwhile, the two ends of the first key groove penetrate through the first key groove, so that the disc can slide along the transmission shaft under the condition of receiving the driving force of the threads to adjust the height of the disc extending out of the concave cavity, and the hobbing length of the lower end of the workpiece can be adjusted to improve the applicability of the hobbing machine.

Between the material blocking strip and the material guiding plate is a material loading area, generally speaking, if a workpiece is placed on the turntable at a position close to the disc, the workpiece can be smoothly fed into the forming channel, but if the workpiece is placed at an edge position of the turntable, the workpiece contacts with the side part of the matching plate during the rotation of the turntable and falls out of the turntable. Therefore, this gear hobbing machine sets up the fuse board, and the tip of fuse board has the fuse surface that the slope set up, and the distance of the one end protrusion cooperation board tip of leading the fuse surface to keep away from the shaping passageway is greater than the distance of the one end protrusion cooperation board tip of leading the fuse surface to be close to the shaping passageway, and the work piece will be followed the fuse surface motion and be close to the disc when rotating to contacting with leading the fuse surface along with the carousel like this for arbitrary vertical work piece of placing on the carousel can both get into the shaping passageway smoothly and carry out the gear hobbing.

And, the work piece after accomplishing the gear hobbing continues to rotate along with the carousel to keeping off the material strip and contacting the back, just can move outside carousel border along keeping off the material strip in the further rotation of carousel, so the work piece will drop to the feed opening under the effect of self gravity and accomplish automatic unloading.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, a material blocking block 15 is further fixed on the top plate 1a, a feed opening 1a1 is arranged at a position, close to the material blocking block 15, on the edge of the turntable 3 on the top plate 1a, a material blocking strip 15a is arranged on the material blocking block 15, the end portion of the material blocking strip extends to the outer peripheral surface of the disc 8, the end surface of the material blocking strip 15a is an arc surface matched with the outer peripheral surface of the disc 8, when the turntable 3 rotates, a workpiece after hobbing can move along the material blocking strip 15a, and the turntable 3 between an inlet of the forming channel 9 and the material blocking block 15 is a feeding area. The material blocking strip 15a is obliquely arranged relative to the extending direction of the matching plate 5, and an included angle between the extending direction of the material blocking strip 15a and the extending direction of the matching plate 5 is an obtuse angle. A blanking channel 1b is arranged in the frame 1, the inlet of the blanking channel 1b is in butt joint with the blanking port 1a1, and the outlet of the blanking channel 1b is arranged at the side part of the frame 1.

The hobbing machine is used for hobbing the peripheral surface of one end part of a cylindrical workpiece, when the hobbing machine is used, the workpiece to be machined is placed on the rotary table 3 between the material blocking strip 15a and the material guiding plate 13a through one end part needing hobbing, and the rotary table 3 rotates to convey the workpiece. Generally, if a workpiece is placed on the turntable 3 at a position close to the disk 8, the workpiece can be smoothly fed into the forming tunnel 9, but if the workpiece is placed at an edge position of the turntable 3, the workpiece contacts with the side portion of the engaging plate 5 during rotation of the turntable 3 and drops out of the turntable 3. Therefore, the gear hobbing machine is provided with the guide plate 13a, the end part of the guide plate 13a is provided with the obliquely arranged guide surface 13a1, and the distance that one end of the guide surface 13a1, which is far away from the forming channel 9, protrudes out of the end part of the matching plate 5 is larger than the distance that one end of the guide surface 13a1, which is close to the forming channel 9, protrudes out of the end part of the matching plate 5, so that a workpiece moves along the guide surface 13a1 to approach the disc 8 when rotating to be in contact with the guide surface 13a1 along with the rotation of the rotary disc 3, and the workpiece can smoothly enter the forming channel 9 for hobbing. When a workpiece enters the forming channel 9, the arc surface 5a at the end part of the matching plate 5 has a supporting function on the workpiece, so that the outer peripheral surface of the lower end part of the workpiece can be extruded and driven to move along the arc surface 5a of the matching plate 5 by means of the teeth on the outer side of the synchronous rotating disc 8 in the continuous rotating process of the rotating disc 3, and the hobbing processing is finished. After finishing hobbing, the workpiece continues to rotate along with the turntable 3 to be in contact with the material blocking strips 15a, and the workpiece after finishing hobbing can move to the outer side of the edge of the turntable 3 along the side parts of the material blocking strips 15a in the rotating process of the turntable 3 due to the inclined arrangement of the material blocking strips 15a, so that the workpiece can fall downwards under the action of self gravity to enter the blanking channel 1b to finish automatic blanking.

The hobbing machine can adjust the hobbing length at the lower end part of a workpiece, and the specific adjusting mode is as follows:

taking the example that the lower end surface of the disc 8 abuts against the bottom wall of the cavity 3a in the initial state, the part of the disc 8 extending out of the cavity 3a is the smallest in the initial state, and the hobbing length at the lower end of the workpiece is the shortest. When the length of the hobbing needs to be adjusted to be long, firstly the locking screw 12a is loosened to enable a space to be generated between the head of the locking screw 12a and the upper end of the pressing sleeve 12b, and then each adjusting screw 10 is rotated along the screwing direction to enable each adjusting screw 10 to move along the thread until the end surface abuts against the bottom wall of the cavity 3 a. At this time, since the movement of each of the adjustment screws 10 is blocked by the bottom wall of the cavity 3a, the adjustment screws 10 are further rotated in the same direction to slide the disc 8 upward along the drive shaft 2 by the screw threads, so that the height of the disc 8 protruding out of the cavity 3a becomes high, and the hobbing length at the lower end of the workpiece becomes long. After the disc 8 is lifted to a required position, the locking screw 12a is screwed to fix the turntable 3, the transmission shaft 2 and the disc 8.

When the hobbing length needs to be reduced, each adjusting screw 10 is rotated in the opposite direction, and each adjusting screw 10 moves upwards relative to the disc 8. Then, the locking screw 12a is rotated in the tightening direction, and the locking screw 12a moves downward relative to the transmission shaft 2, so that the head of the locking screw 12a presses the entire disk 8 downward through the pressing sleeve 12b, so that the disk 8 retracts into the cavity 3a to reduce the height of the disk 8 extending out of the cavity 3a, and the length of the hobbing at the lower end of the workpiece is shortened.

Example two

The structure and principle of this embodiment are basically the same as those of the first embodiment, except that: in this embodiment, the locker 12 includes a lock nut threadedly coupled to the outside of the upper end of the driving shaft 2.

The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the spirit of the invention. Various modifications or additions may be made to the described embodiments or alternatives may be employed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit or ambit of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
