Description

Description: The invention relates to a mounting device and a method for mounting bushings with oil supply openings on shafts with oil supply openings.

For numerous applications in engine and transmission technology, it is necessary to connect bushings on longitudinal, cylindrical gear components in a form-fitting manner and in a predefined position on the gear component. In the context of this invention, bushings are to be understood as any essentially radially symmetrical cylindrical hollow bodies which function as part of a plain bearing. The bushings can be equipped with oil supply openings that allow a lubricant to be pressed into the bearing gap between the bushing and the plain bearing. So that the oil supply can take place through the socket, it is necessary that a gear component located within the socket has an oil supply device. Such a gear component can, in the context of this invention, any possible elongated cylindrical body suitable for the application, i.e. also e.g. Axes, shafts and the like. For the sake of simplicity, the present application speaks of waves. The relationships described are well known to the person skilled in the art.

For the assembly of bushings on shafts, the fixing of the bushings is often achieved by shrinking onto the shaft. For this purpose, the bushings are usually heated in an oven to 150 ° C to 200 ° C, which leads to a thermal expansion of the bushing and results in a play of a few 0.1 mm between the inside diameter of the hot bushing and the outside diameter of the shaft. The resulting press fit of the bush when cooling on the shaft allows a positive connection between the inner wall of the bush and the outer surface of the shaft. This connection is secured against radial and axial displacement of the bush by a sufficiently high surface pressure of the bush on the shaft.

Since in the process of shrinking the difference in volume between the bushing and the shaft is used, it is easy for the person skilled in the art to understand that the bushing must be correctly positioned relative to the shaft quickly and safely. A subsequent correction of the shrunk-on bushing is only possible with considerable effort and is therefore highly undesirable.

The prior art has so far used manual methods for aligning and positioning the socket on the shaft. The applicant is not aware of a device for carrying out this process.

The object of the present invention was to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art and to provide a device and a method by means of which an operator is able to easily, quickly and safely align, position and connect To make bushings on shafts. In the context of this invention, for the sake of simplicity, “one socket on a shaft” is spoken of, but this can also mean the case of several sockets on a shaft, axis, and the like.

This object is achieved by an assembly device according to the invention and an inventive method according to the claims.

The mounting device according to the invention for mounting bushings with oil supply openings on shafts with oil supply openings, comprises a holding device for shafts with a vertical holding device axis, a manipulator device which has a vertical manipulator device axis, at least one spaced from the vertical holding device axis by at least one radius of the shaft Locking device for fixing the shaft in a predeterminable angular position with respect to the manipulator device axis, a storage device for bushings with a vertical storage device axis, the holding device being rotatable about the holding device axis, and the manipulator device being pivotable and height-adjustable along the manipulator device axis, and furthermore a fork or ring-shaped gripping device with

Patentamt has a coupling element complementary to the oil supply openings of the socket and / or shaft for receiving the socket.

The described structure of the mounting device allows the operator a relatively simple arrangement of elements with which he is able to apply a preheated socket on the shaft. The wave may even be cooled to increase the play between shaft and bushing during assembly. The vertical axes of the holding, depositing and manipulating device are parallel. The swiveling and height-adjustable manipulator device makes it easy to grasp or grip the bushing and to transport and position it on the shaft. This enables the bush to be picked up and installed quickly, which significantly reduces the number of rejects and rework.

The common base plate allows in return for a fixed connection of the individual devices each floor a relatively simple repositioning of the mounting device by means of e.g. a pallet truck or forklift. This favors the optimization of work processes and saves unnecessary expenditure of time for measuring the holding, depositing and / or locking devices in relation to the manipulator device. Furthermore, frame frames are conceivable instead of the common base plate for connecting the above-mentioned device to a functional assembly device.

Due to the forked or annular design of the gripping device, the manipulator or. The gripping device can simply be pushed over the preheated socket and the operator has a good line of sight to the socket. This reduces the risk of the gripping device striking the socket or the possible falling of the socket as a result.

Furthermore, the inventive design to the oil supply openings of the socket and / or the shaft complementary design of the gripping device of the coupling element allows a simple temporary fixation, ie coupling, the socket with the manipulator device. This is particularly advantageous in that the preheated socket does not have to be held in the hands for the positioning process and thus has a positive effect on the safety of the operator. In addition, this form-fitting coupling between the bushing and the gripping device is carried out at a point on the bushing which largely precludes possible damage to the surface of the bushing on the outside, which represents the functional surface in a slide bearing arrangement. This results in an increase in the quality of the transmission components produced. If the coupling element is designed such that it is complementary to the shape of the oil supply openings of the shaft, this offers the advantage that the positioning of the bushing on the shaft is facilitated because the coupling element is rubbed over the surface of the surface with little pretensioning, so to speak Can lead shaft until the coupling element snaps into the oil supply opening of the shaft. This can be done entirely without damaging the surface of the shaft and can reduce the time required for positioning the bushing.

Furthermore, it may be expedient if the manipulator device is arranged in such a way that the manipulator device axis is at substantially the same distance from the holding and depositing device axes.

This ensures that the vertical axis of the manipulator device can be seen as the center of a circle, at least one holding device and at least one storage device having the same circular radius being spaced from the manipulator device axis, that is to say essentially the same distance from it. This offers the advantage that a plurality of holding and / or depositing devices can be reached and thus be processed with only one central manipulator device. This can be particularly advantageous if particularly heavy waves have to be brought into position and this e.g. happens by means of a crane. The provision of the shaft on a holding device can take a certain time, in which the manipulator device can already be used for mounting bushes on a second or further shaft on the respective holding devices.

Patent Office [0015] It can further be provided that the gripping device has clamping jaws on the inside, each of which has a concave recess shaped like a cylinder segment. These jaws are temporarily connected to at least parts of the outer surface of the bushing and are designed to be complementary in shape to the outer surface of the bushing due to the cylindrical segment-shaped, concave recess. This offers the advantage that a relatively small amount of heat is only emitted locally from the bushing into the gripping device compared to clamping over the entire circumference of the bushing. The concave recesses of the clamping jaws ideally have a radius of curvature corresponding to the outer radius of the socket. When the clamping jaws come into contact with the socket, tilting of the socket away from the axis of rotation of the socket, which coincides with the storage device axis when the socket is received by the gripping device, is thus effectively avoided. This effectively reduces the risk of the bush jamming when lowering onto the shaft.

In addition, it can be provided that the clamping jaws consist of a second material that is less hard than the material of the gripping device.

[0017] Here, “soft” non-ferrous metals, such as aluminum, copper and their alloys and the like, are conceivable. It is particularly advantageous if the jaws are “softer” or less hard than an indenter than the material of the gripping device. This ensures gentle contact between the gripping device and the surface of the socket, which helps to avoid scratches. Likewise, various plastics, but also wood or similar materials, are conceivable as material for the clamping jaws, the temperature range of which is at least up to 250 ° C.

Also advantageous is a configuration according to which it can be provided that the coupling element which is complementary in shape to the oil supply openings of the bushing and / or shaft is designed as a hollow bolt with an inner bolt. It is thus achieved with only one coupling element that the bush can be fixed via the hollow bolt, which is complementary to the shape of the oil supply opening of the bush, while the inner bolt corresponds to the oil supply opening of the shaft. This embodiment enables the coupling element to be hooked in several stages, in particular if the oil supply openings of the bush and the shaft are of different sizes. This enables the gripping apparatus to be positioned very quickly in a vertical position which can be predetermined by the oil supply bore on the bushing and analogously also on the shaft. This measure significantly reduces the risk that the socket has already cooled down too much and must be heated up again. In addition, an optimization of the process time is made possible.

According to a further development, it is possible for the coupling element, which is complementary in shape to the oil supply openings of the bushing and / or shaft, to be designed to be preloadable by means of a spring mechanism. A spring-loaded coupling element reduces the risk of the coupling element being inadvertently released from the socket and thus increases safety. Furthermore, the suspension can serve that the coupling element automatically engages in the oil supply opening when the bushing is gripped. In the same way, the coupling element can snap into the oil supply opening of the shaft. This makes it possible to increase the speed when positioning the socket.

Furthermore, it may be expedient if the gripping device can be coupled to the manipulator device and / or can be displaced normally to the manipulator device axis. As a result, caliber adaptation to different diameters of the bushing and / or shaft is possible in a relatively simple manner by exchanging the gripping device provided for this purpose. The manipulator device remains the same. The gripping device can e.g. be coupled to the manipulator device by means of screw, hook or clamp connection. It is also conceivable that the gripping device is retained and only the clamping jaws are adapted to different calibers. For this purpose it can be provided that the clamping jaws are detachably connected to the gripping device. In a similar manner it can be provided that the gripping device can be displaced normal to the manipulator axis, for which purpose the gripping device is coupled to the manipulator device via a sliding element. This can

Patent office can be advantageous if e.g. it is necessary that the holding and / or depositing device axes cannot be arranged at the same distance from the manipulator device axis. This can be advantageous, in particular when using a plurality of holding and / or storage devices, since this enables a plurality of holding and / or storage devices to be operated with one manipulator device and to achieve a small overall area of the mounting device.

[0021] In addition, it can be provided that the manipulator device is connected to at least one support element. Especially in the case of comparatively heavy bushings, it may be advantageous to provide a support element to increase the rigidity of the manipulator device. This support element can be designed as a simple I, T or double T beam, but any type of profile with sufficient flexural rigidity can also be used here. It is advantageous if the support element is arranged on a side of the manipulator device that is largely facing away from the holding and / or depositing devices. This can effectively reduce undesired deflection of the manipulator device.

In a particular embodiment, structural elements can be provided on the manipulator device, as well as on the support element, or also on the base plate, which serve as a mechanical stop for any predefinable end positions of the manipulator device. Such stop elements can, depending on the type and location of the arrangement in the assembly device, as e.g. Stop bars, stop bolts or the like can be executed. The angular range of the pivoting movement of the manipulator device is thus defined in a relatively simple manner, which leads to an exact and rapid positioning of the gripping device or the bushing.

[0023] It can further be provided that a lifting and / or lowering support device that can be coupled to the manipulator device is provided. This can be particularly advantageous for heavy bushings that can no longer be lifted and positioned by an operator. The lifting and / or lowering device can be easily e.g. in the form of a spring cable or the like, or from below e.g. in the form of a simple motor-operated hydraulic cylinder or the like. It is advantageous here if the force is exerted precisely on the manipulator device from above or below, which is why the lifting and / or lowering support device should be designed to be pivotable. It is essential that a force acting in the vertical direction is exerted on the manipulator device, which makes it easier for the operator to raise or lower the socket and thus enables increased ergonomics and operational safety.

The inventive method enables in the same way a quick and easy positioning of a socket on a shaft. The method uses a mounting device comprising a holding device for a shaft with a vertical holding device axis, and with a locking device arranged at a distance from the vertical holding device axis by at least one radius of the shaft for fixing the shaft in a predeterminable angular position, a depositing device for bushings with a vertical depositing device axis , a manipulator device which has a vertical manipulator device axis, the holding device being rotatable about the holding device axis, and the manipulator device being pivotable about the manipulator device axis and being height-adjustable along the latter, and a fork-shaped or ring-shaped gripping device having a connection to the oil supply openings of the bushing and / or shaft has complementary coupling element for receiving the socket. The method according to the invention comprises the steps:

- Providing a shaft on the holding device;

- Alignment of the shaft according to a predetermined angular position;

- Heating the socket in a heating device;

- Providing the socket on the storage device;

Patentamt [0029] - Alignment of the bushing in a predeterminable angular position;

- Enclosing the socket with the gripping device of the manipulator device;

- Coupling the gripping device with the socket by means of coupling element complementary in shape to the oil supply openings of the socket;

- Lifting the manipulator device and pivoting the manipulator device about the manipulator device axis to the holding device until the axis of rotation of the socket is aligned with the axis of rotation of the shaft or the holding device axis;

- Lowering the gripping device of the manipulator device until a predeterminable vertical position of the bushing on the shaft is reached;

- Holding the vertical position until the bush has cooled and has formed a positive connection to the shaft by volume contraction with the shaft.

The method according to the invention enables the bush to be picked up surprisingly quickly and positioned on a shaft in the predeterminable axial position. The use of a manipulator device and the arrangement of the holding and depositing devices at the same distance from the manipulator device axis enable a swift pivoting movement. In addition, the use of the coupling element enables the bush to be fixed quickly in the gripping device. The method also allows the bushing to be positioned very precisely in the vertical direction on the shaft, as a result of which inaccuracies and possible correction work can be avoided efficiently.

According to an advantageous development, it can be provided that the alignment of the shaft in a predeterminable angular position takes place in such a way that the shaft on the holding device is rotated about the holding device axis until the locking device engages with a locking bolt in an oil supply opening of the shaft and thereby further rotation is prevented. The locking device achieves a very simple and precise positioning of the shaft and thus the alignment of the oil supply opening with respect to the manipulator device axis. In the stated manner, the shaft can be positioned very quickly by simply rotating the shaft about the holding device axis. It is also conceivable that instead of or in addition to the oil supply opening, the locking direction engages in an alternative reference recess, such as a bore.

Furthermore, it can be provided that a further locking device is arranged next to the holding device analogous to the first locking device. In the case of e.g. Oil supply openings that are staggered may require a new angular positioning of the shaft after mounting the first bushing. In the case of staggered oil supply openings on the shaft, the bushings and their oil supply openings would have to be aligned accordingly. In order to circumvent this in a simple manner, according to the invention, a simple rotation of the shaft into a second predeterminable angular position and its fixing by the further locking device allow further bushings to be mounted on the same shaft in a correct manner using the method described above. This means that all oil supply openings of the bush and the shaft can be aligned even if the oil supply openings of the shaft are offset.

In particular, it can be advantageous if the alignment of the bushing in a predeterminable angular position is such that an elongated weld seam of the bushing is brought into line with a reference marking on the storage device. This procedure uses the weld seam on the socket, or analogously to this an alternative feature of the surface of the socket, to determine the correct angular position of the socket in a simple manner. The correct angular position is indicated to the operator by a reference marking on the storage device, which is within the operator's field of vision. This enables the heated socket to be brought into the correct angular position in a very simple and rapid manner, which increases the quantity and quality of the operator's work.

Patent Office [0039] It can further be provided that the vertical position of the bush on the shaft is adjusted by engaging the coupling element of the gripping device that is complementary in shape to the oil supply openings of the bush and / or shaft. When lowering the bushing along the shaft, the speed of finding the correct vertical position, which can be predetermined by the aligned arrangement of the oil supply openings of the bushing relative to the oil supply openings of the shaft, is of crucial importance. The use of the coupling element which is complementary in shape to the oil supply openings of the bushing and / or shaft makes it possible for the operator to allow the coupling element to slide along the surface with a slight prestress when lowering. Since the angular position has already been set beforehand, the operator is enabled to snap the coupling element into the vertical direction, that is to say in any oil supply opening, when lowering it at the next possible depression of the shaft surface. The positioning speed and precision of the method can thus be increased.

In addition, it can be provided that to support the lifting and / or lowering process, an additional vertical force is applied to the manipulator device by means of a lifting and / or lowering support device that can be coupled to the manipulator device. This enables an improvement in ergonomics, as well as an increase in safety when handling especially heavy bushings. In addition, a possible tilting of the manipulator device away from the manipulator device axis by heavy bushings is largely eliminated, which could cause jamming when lowering due to the small play between the heated bushing and shaft.

For a better understanding of the invention, this will be explained in more detail with reference to the following figures.

[0042] Each shows in a highly simplified, schematic representation:

Figure 1 Figure 2 Embodiment of a mounting device in an oblique view; Embodiment of a mounting device with several storage or holding devices in a plan view; Fig. 3 Enlarged view of an exemplary gripping device on the manipulator device; Fig. 4 Section through an arm of the exemplary gripping device of Figure 3 along the axis IV-IV. Fig. 5 Embodiment of a mounting device with a lifting and / or lowering device coupled to the manipulator device from above, 5a, or from below, 5b.

As an introduction, it should be noted that in the differently described embodiments, the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals or the same component names, and the disclosures contained in the entire description can be applied analogously to the same parts with the same reference numbers or the same component names. The location information selected in the description, e.g. above, below, to the side, etc., referring to the figure described and illustrated immediately, and if the position is changed, these are to be applied accordingly to the new position.

1 shows an embodiment of the assembly device 1 according to the invention. A manipulator device 13 can be adjusted in height along a vertical manipulator device axis 14 and can be pivoted about the manipulator device axis 14. The manipulator device 13 is arranged together with a holding device 9, at least one locking device 7, and a storage device 11 on a base plate 6. In addition, a support element 5 is shown in FIG. 1 which, according to a preferred embodiment, is connected to the manipulator device 13 in order to increase the flexural rigidity thereof. It is conceivable that additional mechanical supports are arranged for lateral support of the manipulator device 13 and / or the support element 5.

AT 16 129 U1 2019-02-15 Austrian

Patent Office The holding device 9 has a vertical holding device axis 10, and the storage device 11 analogously has a vertical storage device axis 12. The distance of the

Holding and depositing device axes 10, 12 from the manipulator device axis 14 are essentially the same. In special cases, however, this distance can also be different.

In Fig. 1 it can also be seen that a shaft 3 is positioned standing on the holding device 9, whereby the axis of rotation of the shaft 3 coincides with the holding device axis 10. In the example shown, a socket 2 is already mounted on the shaft 3 in the lower half of the shaft, that is to say shrunk on. The holding device 9 is rotatably mounted about the holding device axis 10. A shaft 3 located thereon can thus be rotated into a predeterminable angular position relative to the manipulator device 13.

In the event that a plurality of oil supply openings 4 are arranged offset on the shaft 3 in the circumferential direction, it may be necessary that more than an angular position of the shaft 3 should be adjustable for the correct positioning of the bushings 2 relative to the oil supply openings 4 of the shaft 3. As can also be clearly seen from FIG. 1, at least one, in the example shown two, locking devices 7 are arranged next to the holding device 9. Each locking device 7 has a displaceable, possibly even spring-loaded locking bolt 8, which corresponds to an oil supply opening 4, or an equivalent recess, of the shaft 3. By locking the locking bolt 8 when the shaft 3 is rotated, the predeterminable angular position of the shaft 3 can be set precisely and quickly. It is easy to understand that in order to set a further angular position of the shaft 3, the first locking bolt 8 is released and the shaft 3 is rotated further by a predeterminable angle until the further locking device 7 or its locking bolt 8 engages and thus the shaft 3 in the second , further angular position is temporarily fixed.

From Fig. 1 can also be seen on the storage device 11 socket 2 can be seen. The socket 2 is placed on the storage device 11 by an operator in a preheated state and is aligned with the oil supply openings 4 of the socket 2 in a predeterminable angular position relative to the manipulator device axis 14. It has proven to be advantageous that, for simple alignment, a weld seam 23 of the socket 2 is brought into line with a reference marking 22, which is attached to the storage device 11. The gripping device 15 of the manipulator device 13 thus enables the socket 2 to be gripped in a simple manner.

The embodiment shown in Fig. 1 further shows that the storage device 11 has a vertical extension. It is therefore possible for the storage device 11 to be height-adjustable along its storage device axis 12, which is particularly advantageous since the operator can adapt the height of the storage device 11 to its size. A simple adaptation to different lengths of the shafts 3 to be fitted can also be carried out in this way.

2 shows a top view of an embodiment variant of the mounting device 1, wherein, in addition to a manipulator device 13, two storage devices 11 or holding devices 9 with corresponding locking devices 7 are arranged on a base plate 6. In the illustration chosen, it is clearly evident that the distances between the holding and depositing devices 9, 11 and the manipulator device axis 14 are essentially the same. As a result, at least two shafts 3 on the holding devices 9 by means of bushings 2 can be fitted by the storage devices 11 by means of only one manipulator device 13.

3 shows a schematic illustration of a section of the manipulator device 13 or of the fork-shaped or ring-shaped gripping device 15. In the exemplary embodiments shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 5a and 5b, fork-shaped gripping devices 15 are shown, but ring-shaped gripping devices 15 or functionally equivalent designs can also be used. As can be clearly seen in FIG. 3, the gripping device 15 is complementary to the oil supply openings 4 of the bushing 2 and / or shaft 3

Coupling element 17 formed. The gripping device 15 can thus be guided over or around the socket 2 to be gripped and the coupling element 17 can be used for temporarily fixing the socket 2 with the gripping device 15.

3 that the gripping device 15 is detachably connected to the manipulator device 13. In this way, only the gripping device 15 can be exchanged for adapting a change in diameter of the bushings 2 to be assembled. It can be advantageous if the gripping device 15 is connected to the manipulator device 13 such that it can be displaced in a manner that is normal to the manipulator device axis 14, which results in a greater range of the manipulator device 13.

3 that clamping jaws 16 are attached to the inside of the gripping device 15, which have a concave recess in the shape of a cylindrical segment. These clamping jaws 16 allow the socket 2 to be secured against tilting and can consist of a material different from the material of the gripping device 15 in order to minimize scratching of the surface of the socket 2. The jaws 16 can be glued to the gripping device 15, but in particular releasably via e.g. Screws or a sliding connection can be connected.

In addition, the coupling element 17 on the gripping device 15 is shown in FIG. 3. As explained in FIGS. 3 and 4, the coupling element 17 can be composed of a bolt and preferably a hollow bolt 18 and an inner bolt 19. The illustration in FIG. 4 shows a section along the straight line IV-IV of FIG. 3 through an arm of the gripping device

15. Furthermore, FIG. 4 shows a special embodiment by means of a spring mechanism 20, which fulfills the function of prestressing the hollow pin 18 or the inner pin 19 in the direction of the inside of the gripping device 15. The hollow bolt 18 and the inner bolt 19 can, however, be actuated simply with one hand of the operator and thus both loosened and brought into engagement at the oil supply openings 4 of the bushing 2 and / or the shaft 3. The actuating elements of the coupling element 17 in the example shown as a knob for the inner bolt 19 or as a lever for the hollow bolt 18 can also be replaced by equivalent actuating elements and require no further explanation for the person skilled in the art.

It is easy to imagine that after coupling the socket 2 with the gripping device 15 by lifting and pivoting the manipulator device 13 from the storage device 11 to the holding device 9, the axis of rotation of the socket 2 is brought into line with the axis of rotation of the shaft 3. Thereafter, the manipulator device 13 can be lowered until a predeterminable vertical position of the socket 2 on the shaft 3 is reached. The coupling element 17 can advantageously engage through the oil supply opening 4 of the bushing 2 into the oil supply opening 4 of the shaft 3 and temporarily fix the vertical position thus set. This position can be held until the cooling process of the bush 2 on the shaft 3 is completed and a press connection is formed.

The procedure mentioned can be maintained with differently sized oil supply openings 4 of the socket 2 and the shaft 3 if, instead of a one-piece bolt of the coupling element 17, which is not further described here, an embodiment corresponding to FIG. 4, by means of hollow bolts 18 and Inner bolt 19 is selected.

FIGS. 5a and 5b show possible design variants of a lifting and / or lowering support device 21. To assist the operator during the lifting or lowering process, especially in the case of heavy bushings 2, the lifting and / or lowering support device 21 can be subjected to an additional vertical force on the manipulator device 13, which advantageously points away from the base plate 6. As shown in Fig. 5a, the lifting and / or lowering support device 21 can e.g. in the form of a spring cable or the like and be coupled to the manipulator device 13 from above. The lifting and / or lowering support device 21 is attached to the support element 5 as an example. Similarly, as shown in Fig. 5b, the

Lifting and / or lowering support device 21 e.g. in the form of a motorized

Hydraulic cylinder or the like can be designed and coupled to the manipulator device 13 from below. In the example shown, the lifting and / or lowering support device 21 in FIG. 5b is supported on the base plate 6 relative to the manipulator device 13.

The exemplary embodiments show possible design variants, it being noted at this point that the invention is not restricted to the specially illustrated design variants of the same, but rather also various combinations of the individual design variants with one another are possible and this variation possibility is based on the teaching of technical action The present invention resides in the ability of the person skilled in the art in this technical field.

The scope of protection is determined by the claims. However, the description and drawings are to be used to interpret the claims. Individual features or combinations of features from the different exemplary embodiments shown and described can represent independent inventive solutions. The object on which the independent inventive solutions are based can be found in the description.

All information on value ranges in the present description is to be understood to include any and all sub-areas thereof, e.g. the information 1 to 10 is to be understood so that all sub-areas, starting from the lower limit 1 and the upper limit 10, are included, i.e. all sub-areas begin with a lower limit of 1 or greater and end with an upper limit of 10 or less, e.g. 1 to 1.7, or 3.2 to 8.1, or 5.5 to 10.

For the sake of order, it should finally be pointed out that, for a better understanding of the structure, elements have been partially shown to scale and / or enlarged and / or reduced.
