Description

本発明は、ワークを支持する支持部材を基台に傾動自在に載置したワークの支持ブロックに関するものである。   The present invention relates to a work support block in which a support member for supporting a work is placed on a base so as to be tiltable.

従来から、鋳抜き後の黒皮素材のワークを機械加工する際、例えば、図1に示すように、ワークWをフライス盤の作業テーブル1上にクランプする場合には、ワークWを、作業テーブル1上に複数配置された基台51上の各支持部材50に載置すると共に、ワークWの周辺に備えられた複数の押圧機構4によりワークWの上面W1の複数箇所が押圧されて、ワークWが作業ベース1上にクランプされる。
また、図5に示すように、支持部材51の上面に支持されるワークWの下面W2は鋳肌面であり、該下面W2は水平面に対して幾分傾斜していたり、凹凸状となっているため、図4及び図5に示すように、円板状の支持部材50と円柱状の基台51との合わせ面5が球面状に形成され、支持部材50が基台51に対してフレキブルに傾動できるワークの支持ブロックが採用されている。
そして、図5に示すように、ワークWを作業テーブル1上にクランプする際、ワークWの下面W2を支持部材50の上面に載置すると、支持部材50が、ワークWの下面W2の傾斜に沿って基台51との合わせ面5で傾動し、ワークWの上面W1が略水平面となり、図1に示すように、ワークWの上面W1の外周部の複数箇所を各押圧機構4により押圧してワークWをクランプするようにしている。
Conventionally, when machining a black skin workpiece after punching, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, when the workpiece W is clamped on a work table 1 of a milling machine, the workpiece W is used as the work table 1. While being placed on each support member 50 on a plurality of bases 51 arranged above, a plurality of locations on the upper surface W1 of the workpiece W are pressed by a plurality of pressing mechanisms 4 provided around the workpiece W, and the workpiece W Is clamped on the working base 1.
Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the lower surface W2 of the workpiece W supported on the upper surface of the support member 51 is a casting surface, and the lower surface W2 is somewhat inclined with respect to the horizontal plane or is uneven. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the mating surface 5 of the disk-shaped support member 50 and the columnar base 51 is formed in a spherical shape, and the support member 50 is flexible with respect to the base 51. A work support block that can be tilted is used.
As shown in FIG. 5, when the work W is clamped on the work table 1, when the lower surface W2 of the work W is placed on the upper surface of the support member 50, the support member 50 is inclined to the lower surface W2 of the work W. The upper surface W1 of the workpiece W becomes a substantially horizontal plane, and a plurality of locations on the outer peripheral portion of the upper surface W1 of the workpiece W are pressed by the pressing mechanisms 4 as shown in FIG. The work W is clamped.

しかしながら、図4及び図5に示すように、従来のワークの支持ブロックでは、支持部材50と基台51とは、球面状に形成された合わせ面5で密着されるだけで分離できる構造であるために、ワークWを支持部材50の上面に載置する際など、作業員が支持部材50に手を添えていないと、支持部材50が基台51との合わせ面5上で滑り、基台51上から落下し荷崩れを起こす虞があった。さらに、支持部材50と基台51との合わせ面5に異物が混入することで、ワークWのクランプ力が低下したり、支持部材50を基台51に合わせ面5全域で均一に支持することができない等の不都合が発生していた。   However, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, in the conventional work support block, the support member 50 and the base 51 can be separated only by being brought into close contact with the mating surface 5 formed in a spherical shape. Therefore, when the work W is placed on the upper surface of the support member 50, if the worker does not touch the support member 50, the support member 50 slides on the mating surface 5 with the base 51, and the base There was a risk of falling from 51 and causing collapse of cargo. Further, foreign matter is mixed into the mating surface 5 between the support member 50 and the base 51, so that the clamping force of the work W is reduced, or the support member 50 is supported on the base 51 uniformly over the entire surface 5. Inconvenience occurred such as not being able to.

そこで、ワークの位置決めおよびクランプ装置の従来技術として特許文献1には、複雑な曲面を有する加工ワークを挟んで装置本体ベース上に、位置決め本体と、油圧クランプ装置を内蔵したクランプ側本体とを対向配置し、これら位置決め本体とクランプ側本体との間にワークを支持する基準ブロックが配設され、これら位置決め本体、クランプ側本体及び基準ブロックは、一端に割出し板を固定した長尺のボールスクリューに螺合されており、該ボールスクリューの回転によりベース上で摺動可能に構成されると共に、前記位置決め本体に備えたクサビ形ロック装置によりワークの位置決めを行い、前記クランプ側本体によりワークの固定を行う曲面自在位置決め及びクランプ装置が開示されている。
特開平6−126567号公報
Therefore, as a prior art of a workpiece positioning and clamping apparatus, Patent Document 1 discloses that a positioning body and a clamp side body with a built-in hydraulic clamping device are opposed to each other on a machine body base with a workpiece having a complicated curved surface interposed therebetween.

しかしながら、図4及び図5に示す従来のワークの支持ブロックでは、支持部材50と基台51とが分離する構造であるために、ワークWの支持方向が重力方向のみに限定されてしまう。
また、上述した特許文献1の曲面自在位置決め及びクランプ装置では、構造が複雑のため採用することはできない。しかも、特許文献1に開示された、ワークを支持する基準ブロックでは、ワークの支持される面の傾き等の形状が変更されると、基準ブロックを取り換えなければならず到底採用することはできない。
However, in the conventional work support block shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, since the support member 50 and the base 51 are separated, the support direction of the work W is limited only to the gravity direction.
Further, the curved surface positioning and clamping device of Patent Document 1 described above cannot be employed due to its complicated structure. Moreover, in the reference block that supports the workpiece disclosed in Patent Document 1, when the shape such as the inclination of the surface supported by the workpiece is changed, the reference block must be replaced and cannot be adopted at all.

本発明は、かかる点に鑑みてなされたものであり、簡易な構造で、ワークを支持する支持部材を基台に球面状の合わせ面にて密着された状態で傾動自在に連結することのできるワークの支持ブロックを提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and can be connected in a tiltable manner with a simple structure in a state in which a supporting member that supports a workpiece is in close contact with a base on a spherical mating surface. It aims at providing the support block of a workpiece | work.

しかも、支持部材と基台とは、合わせ面で常時密着している状態で連結されているので異物等が合わせ面に侵入することもなく、ワークのクランプ力が低下されることはない。
なお、本発明のワークの支持ブロックの各種態様およびそれらの作用については、以下の(発明の態様)の項において詳しく説明する。

Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.
For example, when clamping the workpiece W made of black skin material on a work table 1 of a milling machine as shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of bases 2 are arranged on the work table 1, and each base A support member 3 that supports the workpiece W is placed on the upper surface of the workpiece 2, and a pressing mechanism 4 that presses the upper surface W1 of the workpiece W at a plurality of locations is disposed around the workpiece W. Then, the workpiece W is placed on the upper surface of each support member 3 on each base 2, and is clamped on the work table 1 by pressing a plurality of locations on the upper surface W <b> 1 of the workpiece W by the pressing mechanism 4.
And the support block of the workpiece | work which concerns on embodiment of this invention is the state which always contact | adhered the support member 3 which supports the workpiece | work W of the black skin raw material after casting to the base 2 with the spherical mating surface 5 It is used that can be tilted together. The support block of this work will be described in detail below.

基台2は、図2及び図3に示すように、上壁部10を有する有底筒体で形成されており、内部に円錐状コイルバネ11を収容する円形状のコイルバネ収容孔12が縦方向に延びている。このコイルバネ収容孔12の内径は、円錐状コイルバネ11の大径端部11aの外径よりも若干大きく設定されている。また、基台2の上壁部10の上面は、支持部材3の下面との合わせ面5であり凹球面状に形成されている。さらに、基台2の上壁部10の略中央には、コイルバネ収容孔12に連通し、締結ボルト15が挿通される貫通孔16が形成されている。この貫通孔16はコイルバネ収容孔12よりも小径に形成され、貫通孔16とコイルバネ収容孔12との間に段差部18が形成される。なお、この貫通孔16は、その内径が支持部材3の傾動に伴って揺動する締結ボルト15に干渉しない程度に形成される。   As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the base 2 is formed of a bottomed cylindrical body having an upper wall portion 10, and a circular coil spring housing hole 12 for housing a conical coil spring 11 is provided in the vertical direction. It extends to. The inner diameter of the coil spring accommodating hole 12 is set to be slightly larger than the outer diameter of the large diameter end portion 11 a of the conical coil spring 11. Further, the upper surface of the upper wall portion 10 of the base 2 is a mating surface 5 with the lower surface of the support member 3 and is formed in a concave spherical shape. Furthermore, a through hole 16 is formed in the approximate center of the upper wall portion 10 of the base 2 so as to communicate with the coil spring accommodation hole 12 and through which the fastening bolt 15 is inserted. The through hole 16 is formed to have a smaller diameter than the coil spring accommodation hole 12, and a step portion 18 is formed between the through hole 16 and the coil spring accommodation hole 12. The through hole 16 is formed so that its inner diameter does not interfere with the fastening bolt 15 that swings as the support member 3 tilts.

支持部材3は、図2及び図3に示すように、ブロック状に形成されており、その上面はワークWの下面W2とズレ防止のために凹凸状に形成されている。一方、支持部材3の下面は、基台2の上壁部10の上面との合わせ面5であり凸球面状に形成されている。また、支持部材3の下面の合わせ面5の略中央には、締結ボルト15の先端部のねじ部が螺合されるねじ孔17が開口されている。   As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the support member 3 is formed in a block shape, and its upper surface is formed in a concavo-convex shape to prevent deviation from the lower surface W <b> 2 of the workpiece W. On the other hand, the lower surface of the support member 3 is a mating surface 5 with the upper surface of the upper wall portion 10 of the base 2 and is formed in a convex spherical shape. Further, a screw hole 17 into which a screw portion at a tip end portion of the fastening bolt 15 is screwed is opened at a substantially center of the mating surface 5 on the lower surface of the support member 3.

そして、図2に示すように、支持部材3を基台2に球面状の合わせ面5で密着させて、図3(a)に示すように、基台2の内部で、その上壁部10の貫通孔16周辺の段差部18に大径端部11aが当接されるように円錐状コイルバネ11を配設する。次に、締結ボルト15を、その頭部15aが円錐状コイルバネ11の小径端部11bに当接するまで、円錐状コイルバネ11の内部に挿通すると共に基台2の上壁部10に設けた貫通孔16を挿通して、締結ボルト15の先端部のねじ部を、支持部材3の下面の合わせ面5に設けたねじ孔17に螺合する。
その結果、支持部材3が基台2に球面状の合わせ面5にて常時密着された状態で傾動自在に連結され、支持部材3と基台2とが合わせ面5を介して一体化されたワークの支持ブロックが形成される。なお、支持部材3が基台2との球面状の合わせ面5にて密着された状態で傾動する様子については、後で詳細に説明する。また、この支持部材3の傾動範囲は、合わせ面5の球面の曲率半径に伴って適宜設定できるが、本実施の形態では、水平面に対する傾斜角度α(図3(b)参照)が略3°までの範囲となる。
Then, as shown in FIG. 2, the support member 3 is brought into close contact with the base 2 with a spherical mating surface 5, and the upper wall portion 10 is formed inside the base 2 as shown in FIG. The conical coil spring 11 is disposed so that the large-diameter end portion 11 a is in contact with the step portion 18 around the through hole 16. Next, the fastening bolt 15 is inserted into the conical coil spring 11 until the head portion 15a abuts on the small diameter end portion 11b of the conical coil spring 11, and the through hole provided in the upper wall portion 10 of the base 2 is provided. 16 is inserted, and the screw portion at the tip of the fastening bolt 15 is screwed into the screw hole 17 provided in the mating surface 5 on the lower surface of the support member 3.
As a result, the support member 3 is connected to the base 2 so as to be tiltable in a state of being always in close contact with the spherical mating surface 5, and the support member 3 and the base 2 are integrated via the mating surface 5. A support block for the workpiece is formed. The manner in which the support member 3 tilts in a state of being in close contact with the spherical mating surface 5 with the base 2 will be described later in detail. Further, the tilting range of the support member 3 can be set as appropriate according to the radius of curvature of the spherical surface of the mating surface 5, but in this embodiment, the tilt angle α (see FIG. 3B) with respect to the horizontal plane is approximately 3 °. It becomes the range.

押圧機構4は、図1に示すように、ワークWの周辺に複数配置され、高さ調整用ジャッキ20と、一端がワークWの上面W1(スペーサ25が配置された部位はスペーサ25の上面)に載置されると共に、他端が高さ調整用ジャッキ20のロッド21の上面に載置され水平方向に延びるクランプ材22と、該クランプ材22内に上下方向に貫通し、上部に固定ナット23を有するスクリュシャフト24とから構成されている。   As shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of pressing mechanisms 4 are arranged around the workpiece W, the height adjusting jack 20 and one end of the upper surface W1 of the workpiece W (the portion where the spacer 25 is arranged is the upper surface of the spacer 25). The clamp member 22 is placed on the upper surface of the rod 21 of the height adjusting jack 20 and extends in the horizontal direction. The clamp member 22 passes through the clamp member 22 in the vertical direction, and the upper portion is a fixing nut. And a screw shaft 24 having 23.

次に、鋳抜き後の黒皮素材のワークW、すなわち、各支持部材3の上面に支持される下面W2が鋳肌面で水平面に対して傾斜しているワークWを、作業テーブル1上にクランプする工程及び作用を説明する。
まず、ワークWの下面W2を各支持部材3の上面に載置する。
すると、各基台2上に連結された各支持部材3が次のように作用する。すなわち、図3(b)に示すように、支持部材3はワークWの傾斜された下面W2に沿って基台2との合わせ面5にて傾動すると共に、締結ボルト15が揺動する。この時、円錐状コイルバネ11は、その大径端部11aが基台2の上壁部10の段差部18に当接された状態が維持されると共に、その小径端部11bが締結ボルト15の頭部15aと共に略水平移動して正規の形状から変形するようになる。しかしながら、円錐状コイルバネ11の付勢力は、支持部材3と基台2との合わせ面5に伝達されるために、支持部材3と基台2とは合わせ面5において密着された状態が維持されることになる。このように、ワークWが各支持部材3に支持されることで、ワークWの上面W1が略水平面となる。
なお、この密着状態が維持される支持部材3の傾動範囲は、上述したように、水平面に対する傾斜角度αが略3°までの範囲とされる。
Next, the workpiece W of the black skin material after the casting, that is, the workpiece W in which the lower surface W2 supported by the upper surface of each supporting member 3 is inclined with respect to the horizontal surface on the casting surface is placed on the work table 1. The process and operation for clamping will be described.
First, the lower surface W <b> 2 of the work W is placed on the upper surface of each support member 3.
Then, each support member 3 connected on each base 2 acts as follows. That is, as shown in FIG. 3B, the support member 3 tilts on the mating surface 5 with the base 2 along the inclined lower surface W2 of the workpiece W, and the fastening bolt 15 swings. At this time, the conical coil spring 11 is maintained in a state in which the large-diameter end portion 11 a is in contact with the stepped portion 18 of the upper wall portion 10 of the base 2, and the small-diameter end portion 11 b of the fastening bolt 15. It moves substantially horizontally together with the head 15a and deforms from a regular shape. However, since the biasing force of the conical coil spring 11 is transmitted to the mating surface 5 between the support member 3 and the base 2, the state in which the support member 3 and the base 2 are in close contact with each other at the mating surface 5 is maintained. Will be. Thus, the workpiece | work W is supported by each support member 3, and the upper surface W1 of the workpiece | work W becomes a substantially horizontal surface.
Note that, as described above, the tilting range of the support member 3 in which the close contact state is maintained is a range in which the tilt angle α with respect to the horizontal plane is approximately 3 °.

次に、ワークWの上面W1の外周部で、必要とされる部位にはスペーサ25が配置され、各高さ調整用ジャッキ20のロッド21を所定高さに設定する。続いて、スクリュシャフト24を上下方向に貫通させた各クランプ材22の両端を、ワークWの上面W1(スペーサ25が配置された部位はスペーサ25の上面)及び各高さ調整用ジャッキ20のロッド21の上面に載置する。
最後に、各固定ナット23を回動させることにより、各クランプ材22によりワークW上面W1の外周部の複数箇所が押圧されて、ワークWが作業テーブル1上にクランプされる。
Next, a spacer 25 is disposed at a required portion on the outer peripheral portion of the upper surface W1 of the workpiece W, and the rod 21 of each height adjusting jack 20 is set to a predetermined height. Subsequently, both ends of each clamp member 22 penetrating the screw shaft 24 in the vertical direction are connected to the upper surface W1 of the workpiece W (the portion where the spacer 25 is disposed is the upper surface of the spacer 25) and the rod of each height adjusting jack 20. It is placed on the upper surface of 21.
Finally, by rotating each fixing nut 23, a plurality of locations on the outer peripheral portion of the workpiece W upper surface W <b> 1 are pressed by each clamp member 22, and the workpiece W is clamped on the work table 1.

以上説明したように、本発明の実施の形態に係るワークの支持ブロックは、ワークWを支持する支持部材3を球面状の合わせ面5で基台2に密着させて、支持部材3の下面の合わせ面5に設けたねじ孔17に、基台2内の円錐状コイルバネ11内から基台2の上壁部10の貫通孔16を挿通させた締結ボルト15のねじ部を締結することで、支持部材3を基台2上に連結しているので、ワークWを支持する支持部材3を基台2に球面状の合わせ面5にて常時密着された状態で傾動自在に連結することができる。
これにより、ワークWを支持部材3の上面に載置する時などに、従来のように支持部材3が基台2との合わせ面5上で滑り、基台2から落下する危険性もなく荷崩れを起すこともないので、支持部材3の落下を防ぐために、作業員が支持部材3に手を添えるような危険な作業を行う必要がなく安全となる。
As described above, the workpiece support block according to the embodiment of the present invention has the support member 3 that supports the workpiece W in close contact with the base 2 with the spherical mating surface 5, and the lower surface of the support member 3. By fastening the screw portion of the fastening bolt 15 through which the through hole 16 of the upper wall portion 10 of the base 2 is inserted from the conical coil spring 11 in the base 2 into the screw hole 17 provided in the mating surface 5, Since the support member 3 is connected to the base 2, the support member 3 that supports the workpiece W can be tiltably connected to the base 2 in a state in which the support member 3 is always in close contact with the spherical matching surface 5. .
As a result, when the workpiece W is placed on the upper surface of the support member 3, the support member 3 slides on the mating surface 5 with the base 2 as in the prior art, and there is no risk of dropping from the base 2. Since the collapse does not occur, it is safe because it is not necessary for the worker to perform a dangerous work such as putting his / her hand on the support member 3 in order to prevent the support member 3 from falling.

また、下面W2が水平面に対して傾斜しているワークWを各支持部材3上に載置する際には、各支持部材3が各基台2上をワークWの下面W2の傾斜に沿って傾動するために、なんの問題もなく、ワークWを作業テーブル1にクランプすることができる。
しかも、本ワークの支持ブロックでは、支持部材3は基台2に合わせ面5にて常時密着された状態で傾動自在に締結ボルト15により連結されているために、合わせ面5に異物等が混入することもなく、支持部材3を基台2に合わせ面5全域で均一に支持することができ、ワークWのクランプ力が低下することもない。
また、支持部材3と基台2との密着状態を維持させるために円錐状コイルバネ11を使用しているので、支持部材3を支持する力を支持部材3の略中心に集中することができる。
Moreover, when mounting the workpiece | work W in which the lower surface W2 inclines with respect to a horizontal surface on each support member 3, each support member 3 is on each base 2 along the inclination of the lower surface W2 of the workpiece | work W. Because of the tilting, the workpiece W can be clamped to the work table 1 without any problem.
In addition, in the support block of this work, since the support member 3 is tilted and connected to the base 2 by the fastening bolt 15 in a state of being always in close contact with the base 2, foreign matter or the like enters the mating surface 5. Therefore, the supporting member 3 can be uniformly supported over the entire surface 5 by matching the support member 3 to the base 2, and the clamping force of the work W is not reduced.
Further, since the conical coil spring 11 is used to maintain the close contact state between the support member 3 and the base 2, the force for supporting the support member 3 can be concentrated at the substantial center of the support member 3.
