Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of roller milling, for example cylindrical bearing surfaces of crankshafts.
  • the invention relates in particular to a device for testing roller burnishing tools.
  • a device for checking the integrity of the rollers and counter-rollers during a crankshaft running operation is described in the document FR-A-2,607,920 .
  • the burnishing machines allow the realization of the leaves on each side of a cylindrical bearing of a crankshaft.
  • Each cylindrical seat of a crankshaft is pressed on the one hand between two rollers and on the other hand between two support wheels, arranged opposite the rollers.
  • the axis of rotation of the rollers is inclined relative to the axis of rotation of the crankshaft, the rollers bearing on each side of the cylindrical bearing surface of a crankshaft.
  • the pressure exerted by the rollers allows the burnishing of the leaves on each side of a cylindrical bearing surface of a crankshaft.
  • a support wheel exerts a pressing force on the rollers which are held in place by a cage.
  • the rollers roll on both the crankshaft bearing and the support wheel, when the crankshaft is rotated.
  • the rotation of the crankshaft is carried out by the roller burnishing machine which comprises means for holding and driving the crankshaft.
  • a technical problem concerns the realization of tests on burnishing tools. In order to guarantee a longer and more stable lifetime, life tests are necessary. Similarly, any modifications made to the roller burnishing tools require at least one validation before these tools are used in a machining line.
  • the tests carried out on the burnishing tools require that a preliminary validation stage be carried out in a production line. The layout of the production line must therefore be modified, which is penalizing in terms of productivity.
  • the implementation of the tests requires a reconfiguration of the production chain which is very long to implement, especially since several different tests are often necessary. On the other hand the tests are carried out on crankshafts which are lost for sale.
  • crankshafts lost is all the more important as the crankshafts degrade much faster than the burnishing tools and several crankshafts are needed to test the complete wear of a set of burnishing tools. These tests roller burners are doubly penalizing for productivity.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome several drawbacks of the prior art by creating a test device for crankshaft burnishing tools making it possible to carry out the test without using a crankshaft, the test being performed independently of the machining line.
  • the test device (1) according to the invention is represented on the figure 1 , supported on rollers (2) and on wheels (4) support.
  • a single support wheel (4) per cylindrical bearing surface is shown, but the roller burnishing machines generally comprise a support housing having two support wheels per cylindrical bearing.
  • the support wheels (4) are rotatably connected to the rolling machine, about their axis (43).
  • the rollers (2) are held in place by a not shown cage.
  • Support wheels (3) exert a pressing force against the rollers (2).
  • the bearing wheels (3) are rotatably connected to the rolling machine, about their axis (31).
  • the test device (1) according to the invention is rotated, according to its axis (10) of rotation, by the rolling machine, for example according to an advanced system and counter tip.
  • the test device (1) comprises for example a housing (51) disposed symmetrically about the axis (10) of rotation, to receive a support tip.
  • a drive device (5) is for example screwed by a threaded rod (54) in a housing (52) threaded with the test device (1), arranged around its axis (10) of rotation.
  • the drive device (5) for example receives a drive spike in a housing (53) arranged around the axis (10) of rotation of the test device (1).
  • the ends of the shaft are threaded to be fixed to the roller burnishing machine.
  • the test device (1) comprises roller bearing paths (22) made symmetrically with respect to the axis (10) of rotation of the test device (1). These roller bearing paths (22) bear on the rollers (2) of the roller burnishing machine.
  • the roller bearing tracks (22) (2) have determined positions corresponding to those of the connecting fillet made on a crankshaft, in the rolling machine, these positions being marked relative to a plane perpendicular to the axis (10) of rotation of the device (1) test.
  • the roller bearing paths (22) (2) comprise a rounded profile to accommodate the rollers (2).
  • the rounded profile of the roller bearing paths (22) (2) appears in particular on each of the figures 1 , 2 and 3 .
  • the material in which the bearing rings (20, 21) on which the roller bearing paths (22) are made is of the same hardness as the material used for producing the wheels (3). support of the roller burnishing machine.
  • the diameter (D22) of the roller bearing paths (22) is chosen to be identical to the diameter of the cylindrical bearing surface machined in the machine.
  • the advantage over the use of a crankshaft to perform a test of the rollers (2) is that the roller bearing paths (22) according to the invention are not intended to be deformed by the rollers (2). ).
  • the rollers (2) undergoing pressure similar to the pressure in the machining conditions, the wear of the rollers (2) or the wheel (3) bearing will be identical.
  • a roller bearing path (22) will allow the complete wear test of at least one set of rollers (2) associated with a bearing wheel (3).
  • the roller burnishing machine drives the test device (1) according to the invention, until a roller (2) or the support wheel (3) or the ring (20) of rolling for the pebbles breaks.
  • the bearing rings (20, 40) are easily removable and are, for example, replaced before the start of a test.
  • the test device (1) comprises bearing tracks (42) for the support wheels (4). These bearing paths (42) bear on the wheels (4) for supporting the rolling machine.
  • the bearing paths (42) for the support wheels (4) have predetermined positions, corresponding to those of the cylindrical bearings of the crankshaft machined in the rolling machine, these positions being marked relative to a plane perpendicular to the axis (10). ) of rotation of the test device (1).
  • the bearing tracks (42) for the support wheels (4) have a cylindrical shape of which the axis of symmetry corresponds to the axis (10) of rotation of the device (1) test.
  • the profile of the rolling paths (42) for the support wheels (4) in a section along a plane passing through the axis (10) of rotation of the device (1) is therefore a straight profile. This profile appears in particular on each of the figures 1 , 2 and 3 .
  • test device (1) according to the invention therefore makes it possible to carry out tests of numerous configurations, independently of the production line. Test configurations are not fixed. The realization of numerous and varied tests is thus facilitated. Modifications for improvements to the testing tools are therefore facilitated. The improvement of the test tools concerns, for example, the guarantee of a longer and more stable life of the burnishing tools.
  • the test device (1) according to the invention can be realized with simple and inexpensive elements and the test device (1) is manufactured and then mounted in a rolling machine, regardless of the crankshaft production line. The tests are for example performed on a machine annex, outside the production line of crankshafts.
  • test device no crankshaft is necessary for example to test the service life or the wear speed of the burnishing tools.
  • a complete test requires a single test device (1) according to the invention.
  • the lubrication is carried out in the same way as for the burnishing of a crankshaft. Since the dimensions of the test device (1) according to the invention are close to those of a crankshaft, the conditions for the tests are identical to the conditions in which the rolling of a crankshaft is carried out.
  • test device (1) is adapted to a roller burnishing tool of a crankshaft having one or more cylindrical bearing surfaces, for which the rolling tools of a cylindrical bearing surface are tested simultaneously or successively.
  • a main shaft (6) of axis of revolution identical to the axis (10) of rotation of the test device (1) is extended by two threaded ends (61) or is connected to inserts comprising threaded ends.
