Definitions

  • the invention relates to a spring compressor according to the features of patent claim 1 .
  • EP 1 591 207 B1 discloses an internal tensioner for tensioning a helical compression spring, which has a tensioning drive with a threaded spindle and two tensioning plates that are inserted between the coils of the helical compression spring to be tensioned.
  • the clamping plates have contact surfaces adapted to the helical compression spring.
  • One of the two clamping plates has an opening on the edge so that the threaded spindle can grip the clamping plate from the side.
  • the other clamping plate has a central opening with a contact surface for a pressure piece.
  • the pressure piece has a spherical cap-shaped surface, so that a certain deflection between the pressure piece and the clamping plate is possible.
  • helical compression springs do not generally run in a straight line, but are slightly curved. As a result, the windings of the springs do not run parallel to one another either, with the result that the clamping plates are not parallel to one another at the beginning either.
  • the spherical cap shape ensures a certain balance in the area of the two clamping plates.
  • EP 1 905 545 B1 also discloses a spring tensioner for helical compression springs, with a socket in the form of a segment of a sphere for a pressure piece on the outside of a tensioning plate.
  • the clamping plate has a ring of indentations and projections.
  • Two radially projecting abutment bodies are provided on the pressure piece for engaging in the depressions.
  • the anti-twist device requires additional axial and radial space.
  • the invention is based on the object of demonstrating a spring tensioner which allows limited pivoting of the tensioning plate relative to the tensioning device arranged on the inside and at the same time allows the use of a pressure piece which is as compact as possible and has a short length.
  • the spring tensioner comprises a tensioning device that can be inserted axially into a helical spring that is to be tensioned.
  • the spring compressor includes a first and a second clamping plate.
  • the clamping plates can be coupled to the clamping device at a distance from one another.
  • the tightening device has a drive end with the second tightening plate disposed adjacent the drive end.
  • the second clamping plate has an opening for receiving the clamping device.
  • the clamping device also has a pressure piece which can be displaced along the clamping device under the action of an actuator in order to adjust the distance between the clamping plates.
  • the pressure piece presses axially onto the second clamping plate.
  • the power is transmitted via a dome-shaped contact surface between the pressure piece and the clamping plate.
  • the anti-twist device has projections and pockets for receiving the projections.
  • the projections and the pockets are located in the dome-shaped contact surface itself and interrupt it in the circumferential direction, so that the dome-shaped contact surface is composed of a plurality of dome-shaped contact surface regions which are separate from one another.
  • the dome-shaped contact surface areas are larger overall in the circumferential direction than the circumferential area in which the projections and the pockets are arranged.
  • the axial length of the pressure piece can be reduced. Only a very limited range of lengths is needed to simultaneously perform multiple functions.
  • the first function is the power transmission from the pressure piece to the second clamping plate via the dome-shaped contact surface areas. There is no transmission of force via the pockets and projections, but only via the dome-shaped contact surface areas or via the only dome-shaped contact surface overall.
  • the second function is the anti-twist device.
  • the pockets are arranged either in the pressure piece or in the second clamping plate. Both the pockets and the projections are so large that the dome-shaped contact surface areas are completely separated from one another.
  • the axial length of the dome-shaped contact surface is used completely for the anti-twist protection, in that the projections and pockets not only adjoin the dome-colored contact surface areas in the axial direction, but also completely penetrate them in the axial direction.
  • the anti-rotation device can be dimensioned relatively small because no compressive forces are transmitted in the axial direction via the anti-rotation device.
  • the dome-shaped contact surface areas are not individual line contacts, but that the dome-shaped contact surface areas are circumferential areas that extend for several degrees within a single axial plane, so that the abutment between the pressure piece and the clamping plate is as full-surface as possible, which in turn contributes to an even power transmission and to avoiding stress peaks in the components.
  • the third function that is fulfilled in the area of the contact surfaces is the compensation function for the angular positions between the pressure piece and the clamping plate.
  • the clamping plates are preferably forged components, while the pressure piece is manufactured as a turned or milled component. Indentations distributed over the circumference can be introduced more easily than projections on the pressure piece, since this would require greater removal of material adjacent to the projections.
  • the pockets are deeper than the projections are high.
  • the protrusions reach into the pockets.
  • the corresponding information on depth and height should be understood in such a way that when the pressure piece and the second clamping plate are axially aligned, a gap remains between the surfaces of the pockets and the projections.
  • the gap between the pockets and the projections is much larger than is required for pure assembly.
  • the play resulting from the gap also exists in the axial direction of the clamping device, so that the clamping plate can be bent to a limited extent relative to the pressure piece by moving along the dome-shaped contact surface without contact between the projections and pockets. Angling is only possible to a limited extent.
  • the opening in the second backing plate has a diameter that increases as the distance from the dome-shaped contact surface increases. In particular, the diameter is conically widened, for example with an opening angle of 10°-15°. This means that the clamping plate can be swiveled by 5°-7.5° in any direction. So that there is no contact between a spindle of the clamping device and the clamping plate when the clamping plate is pivoted, the pressure piece can have a shaft which penetrates the opening along its entire length. The shank encloses the spindle of the clamping device. The size and shape of a gap between the shank and the opening determines how far the chuck can be angled.
  • the first clamping plate at the other end of the clamping device can also be coupled to the clamping device so that it can pivot axially with respect to the latter.
  • An abutment with a spherical segment-shaped contact surface can be arranged on the spindle, or spherical segment-shaped contact surface areas can be formed, combined with an anti-twist device to prevent the clamping plate from twisting relative to the spindle.
  • each spherical cap-shaped contact surface having a different center point in the sense of different bowl-shaped depressions.
  • the spherical cap-shaped contact surfaces preferably extend over an angular range of at least 15° in each case.
  • the angular range refers to the circumferential direction around the longitudinal axis of the clamping device.
  • the individual contact surface areas preferably extend over 20°-40° in the case of 6 contact surface areas.
  • the number of contact surface areas or pockets and depressions is preferably between 2 and 12, in particular between 4 and 12, with 6 pockets being particularly preferred.
  • the spherical cap-shaped contact areas between the projections do not necessarily have to be identical in size to the spherical cap-shaped contact surfaces between the pockets.
  • the spherical cap-shaped contact surface areas between the projections are larger than the spherical cap-shaped contact surface areas between the pockets.
  • the pockets are slightly wider than the projections, which is at the expense of the spherical cap-shaped contact surface areas. In total, however, the Contact surface areas larger than the non-contact surface areas occupied by the pockets and projections.
  • the spherical segment-shaped contact surface areas can be of the same length in the axial direction or to extend over an angular area of the same size in the axial direction of the tensioning device or the pressure body.
  • the contact surface area on the clamping plate can have a shorter axial length than the contact surface area on the pressure body.
  • the pressure body acts as the inner part (ball) and the clamping plate as the outer part (spherical shell).
  • the clamping plate slides on the inner pressure body, so that the inner pressure body is in contact with the clamping plate in different axial sections, depending on the angular position.
  • the pressure body as a smaller component and as a rotating component is easier to process in terms of surfaces. Larger spherical cap-shaped contact surface areas can be produced more easily here.
  • the spring tensioner according to the invention has a multifunctional area on the pressure piece, as a result of which the pressure piece can be designed to be significantly shorter, more compact and also simpler. It is also cheaper to manufacture and fulfills the same functions as more complex designs that have separate functional areas.
