摘 要
本課題主要是設計某機床尾座體的加工工藝及夾具的設計，在設計中采用先設計該尾座體的加工工藝在根據(jù)加工工藝來選取夾具的設計的方案和夾具的具體設計；而設計的重點是夾具的設計。由于工件的孔17和14都要以底面做為基準加工，故首先得做出底面的加工夾具。由于孔17的精度要求高，和定位尺寸誤差小，為保證孔的位置和加工準確性我們一定在加工底面的時間通過畫線找出底面的加工余量。這樣就可以更好的保證孔17的位置和加工精度！加工孔14的夾具其實就是在加工底面夾具的基礎(chǔ)上加了一個45度斜度板。加工孔17的時間為保證相對于A和B面的平行度我們就得要準確的設計出以A和B面定為的夾具！還考慮到工件的圓度和圓柱度的誤差小，我們設計的夾具就具有對孔17的夾具定位準確，和加工時間的震動小，那就得在孔17的附近找個定位加緊點！

1 緒 論
機械設計制造及其夾具設計是對我們完成大學四年的學習內(nèi)容后進行的總體的系統(tǒng)的復習，融會貫通四年所學的知識，將理論與實踐相結(jié)合。在畢業(yè)前進行的一次模擬訓練，為我們即將走向自己的工作崗位打下良好的基礎(chǔ)。
機械加工工業(yè)規(guī)程是指導生產(chǎn)的重要的技術(shù)性文件，它直接關(guān)系到產(chǎn)品的質(zhì)量、生產(chǎn)率及其加工產(chǎn)品的經(jīng)濟效益，因此工藝規(guī)程的編制的好壞是生產(chǎn)該產(chǎn)品的質(zhì)量的重要保證的重要依據(jù)。在編制工藝時須保證其合理性、科學性、完善性。
夾具設計是為了保證產(chǎn)品的質(zhì)量的同時提高生產(chǎn)的效率、改善工人的勞動強度、降低生產(chǎn)成本，因此在大批量生產(chǎn)中，常采用專用夾具
這次畢業(yè)設計，難免會有許多的問題，懇請各位指導教師給予幫助，希望通過這次設計能鍛煉自己的分析問題、解決問題的能力，為以后 參加工作打下良好的基礎(chǔ)。

5 總 結(jié)
通過這次畢業(yè)設計，使我對產(chǎn)品設計過程有了進一步的認識，對結(jié)構(gòu)設計有了更進一步的了解，也加深了對大學四年中所學的基礎(chǔ)知識的學習和理解。畢業(yè)設計是理論聯(lián)系實際的最有效方法。在具體設計過程中，必須考慮到方方面面的問題，在理論上正確無誤的設計，在實際中往往存在各種問題。這樣，在設計時就必須考慮，所設計的機構(gòu)是否合理在實際運用中能否正常工作。畢業(yè)設計使我學會了從實際出發(fā)設計產(chǎn)品，而不僅僅考慮理論上的可行性。
在本次課程設計的制作過程中，我深深的體會到一個看似簡單的機構(gòu)其實并不像我們想象中的那么簡單，它所要考慮的東西還很多。要完善一個產(chǎn)品首先應該對其功能作用有充分的了解，然后對實現(xiàn)這些功能的結(jié)構(gòu)進行分析，考慮哪種結(jié)構(gòu)能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)這種功能，哪種結(jié)構(gòu)更加合理、有效、簡便。根據(jù)了解的類似結(jié)構(gòu)進行仔細分析，再進行適當?shù)母倪M、創(chuàng)新，爭取用最低的成本實現(xiàn)最先進的功能。最后再根據(jù)結(jié)構(gòu)設計出各個零件，應當考慮到零件的加工、材料、成本等問題。
在設計過程中，盧宗彪老師給予了我悉心指導，提出好的建議，使我獲益良多。同學之間互相研討，共同解決問題，互相幫助，互相學習，使我體會到了團隊的可貴，懂得了團隊精神的重要性。 畢業(yè)設計是我在學校的最后一次答卷，我也把它看成是我邁向社會的第一步

畢業(yè)設計(論文)外文資料翻譯學 院 ：機械工程學院 專 業(yè) 班 級 ：機械設計制造及其自動化 學 生 姓 名 ：學 號：指 導 教 師 ：外 文 出 處 ： 《Design of the DistributedArchitecture of a Machine-tool》 附 件 ：1.外文資料翻譯譯文； 2.外文原文 指導教師評語：簽名： 年 月 日分布式機床的設計FIP現(xiàn)場總線的用途Daping SONG, Thierry DIVOUX，費朗西斯勒帕熱自動化中心研究所的Nancy摘要：本文中我們基于FIP現(xiàn)場總線上提出了一種分布式控制系統(tǒng)。它將取代傳統(tǒng)的CNC(計算機數(shù)字控制裝置)用于機床上。該系統(tǒng)是由一套以微處理機為基礎(chǔ)的模塊(PC機、運動控制器、I/O接口) 利用FLP實時網(wǎng)絡相互聯(lián)接的。這主要是使每個模塊智能化以提高整個系統(tǒng)的靈活性和容錯能力。每個模塊都是一個分控系統(tǒng)，用于實現(xiàn)自己的分控任務，其中有些模塊用于運動控制，另一些模塊用于傳感器評價和執(zhí)行器調(diào)節(jié)。FIP決定了這些模塊之間的通訊（信息交流和同步），同時執(zhí)行任務分配以及設備布局分布。我們討論一些分布標準并描述實驗的執(zhí)行。1.引言近幾年，一直對分布式體系結(jié)構(gòu)進行了許多研究。分布式體系結(jié)構(gòu)在系統(tǒng)集成上發(fā)揮主要作用。在機床控制域，目前 CNC 技術(shù)有它內(nèi)在的缺點。將幾根固定數(shù)量的軸容入 CIM 環(huán)境中是非常費時，靈活和不易的。超大規(guī)模集成電路微處理器技術(shù)和通信網(wǎng)絡的迅速發(fā)展使分布式控制成為可能。雖然逐步擴展沒有完全替代硬件更換但分布式控制系統(tǒng)的性能，模塊化，完整性和可靠性正在提高。它為替代控制系統(tǒng)架構(gòu)提供了一個很好的前景。本文致力于對分布式機床結(jié)構(gòu)的研究。它建立在智能設備與通信相聯(lián)系的基礎(chǔ)上。分布式機床的特點是分布式任務和分布式數(shù)據(jù)，且具有獨特的控制方法。它是結(jié)合標準設備和 FIP 系統(tǒng)總線設計而成，通過實驗證明該系統(tǒng)具有可執(zhí)行性，在實驗中該系統(tǒng)控制了復合軸系，成功執(zhí)行坐標之間的關(guān)系同時也反應了對傳感器值的變化。該論文結(jié)構(gòu)如下：第 2 部分描述了機床控制系統(tǒng)構(gòu)架。第 3 部分簡要介紹了 FIP 現(xiàn)場總線。第 4 部分概述了我們實驗的實施。最后，我們在第 5 部分總結(jié)了一些一般性意見和今后的研究前景。2.機床控制系統(tǒng)架構(gòu)該機床控制系統(tǒng)是一個實時多任務系統(tǒng)。其功能結(jié)構(gòu)如圖 1 所示。它包括三種單元：用戶接口/ 監(jiān)控單元/規(guī)劃單元，伺服單元，傳感器/制動器單位。這個系統(tǒng)的主要功能是用來控制工件的加工。它包括兩個不同的和相關(guān)的任務：● 為了確保軌跡的準確性和對機床移動部件的速度控制● 為了調(diào)查定位（跟蹤）過程的正確執(zhí)行，環(huán)境變化的影響與指定操作的執(zhí)行或機床機件的運動同樣重要。例如：工具開關(guān)，冷卻，潤滑等。CAM 的制造日期圖 1：架構(gòu)功能按時間順序，這項任務也可分為兩個步驟：規(guī)劃控制程序規(guī)劃和執(zhí)行控制程序。第一步，機床機件沒有直接的方向，只有運動和被指定執(zhí)行的操作，這工作規(guī)劃/編程（軌跡，工具的選擇，其他加工參數(shù)采集）基本替換計算軸伺服控制系統(tǒng)機床構(gòu)件傳感器/制動器環(huán)境自動安全監(jiān)測加工是“數(shù)據(jù)采集和預處理”的一步。雖然在第二步，是控制的有效執(zhí)行。值得指出的是：在第二步由于多任務的性質(zhì)，并行處理是可行的。3.FIP 現(xiàn)場總線FIP系統(tǒng)被用來滿足分布式機床上實時通信的需要。在這一節(jié)中，我們簡要地解釋一下FIP系統(tǒng)的技術(shù)性能。FIP（工廠儀表協(xié)議）是網(wǎng)絡系統(tǒng)用于傳感器的驅(qū)動器和控制設備如PLCS，CNCS或機器人控制器之間的信息交換。FIP系統(tǒng)的結(jié)構(gòu)采用所謂的密封性以減少OSI模型(物理層,數(shù)據(jù)鏈路層和應用層)，這種結(jié)構(gòu)使實時通信和常規(guī)的信息溝通之間有明顯的區(qū)別。在數(shù)據(jù)鏈路層中，相關(guān)服務一方面與其他傳遞信息服務可變轉(zhuǎn)讓。在應用層中，我們可區(qū)分MPS服務（制造周期/非制造性規(guī)范），它采用來自數(shù)據(jù)鏈路層的信息設備所支持的MMS設備。FIP支持兩個傳輸媒體：屏蔽雙絞線和光纖。FIP允許各種各樣的布局，最長部分可達500米，至少有4個部分被中繼器代替。3種比特率被確定為：31.25k.比特/秒，1兆位/秒和2.5兆位/秒。FIP介質(zhì)訪問控制是集中的。所有轉(zhuǎn)讓都由the Bus Arbiter控制，時間安排轉(zhuǎn)移必須遵守時間要求。變量和信息之間的傳遞可采用定期配置或根據(jù)站的要求來轉(zhuǎn)讓，而在我們的應用中，F(xiàn)IP只采用可變轉(zhuǎn)讓。FIP采用生產(chǎn)者和消費者的模樣來產(chǎn)生可變交流。變量對于生產(chǎn)者和消費者而言，是被確定的一個獨特的識別標志，一套制作和消費變量可以集結(jié)在一個站，但是這些識別標志不涉及任何物理地址站。圖2顯示了變化信息。廣播的 BA 標識符 認識的人 P和一些消費者?生產(chǎn)者發(fā)出的日期 P所有消費者接受的數(shù)據(jù) C 圖2：FIP系統(tǒng)的MAC圖象首先，the Bus Arbiter 廣播持有可變的標示符，所有的節(jié)點接受幀并檢查變數(shù)是生產(chǎn)還是消費產(chǎn)生的或不給予影響。第三步：作為生產(chǎn)者的站必須響應包含數(shù)據(jù)的幀。第四步：獲取消費者的變化價值并存儲。當更新產(chǎn)生時，消費者和生產(chǎn)者便形成了。FIP有兩種類型的數(shù)據(jù)交流：周期性和非周期性的。在這兩種情況下，匯率發(fā)生情況如上圖（圖2）。在第一種情況下，the Bus Arbiter根據(jù)從配置要求價值相應的標識定期轉(zhuǎn)移。第二種情況下，the Bus Arbiter 可根據(jù)現(xiàn)有的帶寬產(chǎn)生轉(zhuǎn)讓請求信號。在我們的應用中，實時的限制是非常嚴格的。為了使機床遵守給定的軌跡，軸的控制必須同步。這就要求和網(wǎng)絡連接的控制節(jié)點應該同時接受開始命令，因此網(wǎng)絡必須播出命令。為了確保相同的瞬時命令能同時被幾個接受器接受，穩(wěn)定的傳輸是非常必要的。因此，一些傳感器例如運動控制傳感器就應該要求定期調(diào)查限位開關(guān)以使網(wǎng)絡能定期無重大延誤的傳輸數(shù)據(jù)。一句話，像分布式機床的操作，像數(shù)據(jù)廣播的要求，時間和空間的一致性，定期傳輸不能滿足任何一般用途的網(wǎng)絡。然而，實時網(wǎng)絡例如FIP就是數(shù)據(jù)一種好的解決方法。4.實驗實施如圖3所示，我們的應用目標是要實現(xiàn)一個分布式的兩軸機床控制系統(tǒng)。它由以下設備分布在FIP總線的四個節(jié)點上。節(jié)點1：微機（i80486 微處理器）。它作為運營商終端。節(jié)點2.3：兩個相同的節(jié)點。每個均由微機（i80486）配備了運動控制器(克萊斯勒PCIOO + 克萊斯勒三菱商事100)。節(jié)點4：一個帶有傳感器/制動器作為輔助業(yè)務的可編程控制器（低溫100）。網(wǎng)絡：FIP和1比特/秒的雙絞線介質(zhì)間的選擇。軟件架構(gòu)的執(zhí)行系統(tǒng)是基于概念的多層次分布式控制。它有三種層次結(jié)構(gòu)，其中第二和第三層次可實現(xiàn)分配。它包括以下層次：分析層：控制任務的執(zhí)行選擇它被映射到微機的提供用戶界面的節(jié)點上。用來處理計劃收購和儲存，不同業(yè)務模式（手動和自動模式）的交換，起始點和終點以及其它各節(jié)點之間的計算和發(fā)送。慣例層：確定某一任務的控制算法它被映射到2種其他微機上（節(jié)點2和節(jié)點3）。這兩種微機具有根據(jù)給定的參數(shù)和命令（軌跡類型，速度，加速度等）進行基本位移計算（插補）的功能。每個軸的插補算法是軟件設計的困難之一，因為軸控制分布后，每個中間坐標軸的計算是獨立的。正確的算法設計可保證這些軸的連貫性。工藝層：執(zhí)行控制它包含兩種運動：運動控制器和可編程控制器。這些設備執(zhí)行伺服系統(tǒng)運動控制，處理加工件的舉行/緊縮政策，傳感器的評定和驅(qū)動器的調(diào)節(jié)使工具切換任務和監(jiān)控系統(tǒng)更安全。為了驗證擬議的架構(gòu)是否與時間限制和網(wǎng)絡能力相適應，預期流量的估計是必要的。主要有兩種性質(zhì)的信息交流：● 命令從中央決定站（節(jié)點）傳到其它站?！?統(tǒng)計信息由站（節(jié)點）與站之間產(chǎn)生。例如:在我們的實驗平臺上,一些變數(shù)分布如下：節(jié)點1FIP 系統(tǒng) 節(jié)點2 節(jié)點4 節(jié)點3FIP系統(tǒng) FIP系統(tǒng)運動控制 運動控制傳感器和制動器X軸 Y軸圖3:硬件執(zhí)行5.結(jié)論本文中為滿足CIM的要求，我們的研究通過實驗實施進一步達到審定。我們現(xiàn)在正致力于用來證明符合執(zhí)行實時限制的經(jīng)營架構(gòu)的仿真和性能分析的工作。我們的目標不僅是一個試樣樣機，更是研究設計、優(yōu)化的分布式系統(tǒng)理論方案的發(fā)展。esign of the Distributed Architecture of a Machine-toolUsing FIP FieldbusDaping SONG, Thierry DIVOUX, Francis LEPAGECentre de Recherche en Automatique de NancyUniversite de Nancy I, BP239, 54506 Vandoeuvre-les-Nancy cedex, FranceAbstract: In this paper we propose a distributed control system based on FIP fieldbus. It is applied to machine-tool as a replacement for the traditional CNC (Computerized Numerical Controller). The system is composed of a set of microprocessor-based modules (PCs, motion controllers, I/OS, . ..) interconnected by FLP real-time network. The main idea is to enable each module to be intelligent, improving thus the flexibility and the fault tolerant capability of the whole system. Each module being a sub-control system, accomplishes its own control task, some of them for motion control and others for evaluating sensors and regulating actuators. The communication (information exchanges and synchronization) among these modules is ensured by FLP. This system allows both task distribution as well as equtpment topological distribution. We discuss some distribution criteria and describe an experimental implementation.1. IntroductionDistributed system architecture has been the subject of many research activities in recent years. It plays a major role in systems integration. In the machine-tool control domain, present CNC technology has its inherent shortcomings. It is centralized, limited to a fixed number of axis time-consuming, inflexible and difficult to be integrated in CIM environment. The rapid development of VLSI microprocessor technology and communication network enables the distributed control to be considered. Distributed control systems present the advantage of improving performance, modularity, integrity and reliability while allowing incremental expansion without complete hardware replacement. It offers a promising alternative to control system architecture.This paper is dedicated to study a distributed machine-tool architecture. It is based on intelligent devices interconnected on communication link. It is characterized by distributed tasks and distributed data, but with unique control access system. It is designed by using standard devices and FIP fieldbus and verified by a experimental implementation, in which the system controls a multi-axis machine to successfully execute a coordinated motion as well as to respond to sensors values changes.The paper is organized as follows. In section 2, the machine-tool control system architecture is described. Section 2 gives a brief description of FIP and Section 3 outlines our experimental implementation. We conclude in section 4 with some general remarks and future research perspectives.2. Machine-tool control system architectureThe machine-tool control system is a real-time and multitask system. Its classical functional architecture is shown in Fig.1. It consists of three units: user interface/supervisiou/programming unit, servo unit, and sensors/actuators unit. The main mission of this system is to control workpart machining. It includes two different and related tasks aspects: ●to ensure the precise trajectory and speed control of the mobile organs of machine-tool.●to survey the correct execution of this positioning (tracking) process, to react on environment changes as well as to perform the specified operations or actions upon machine-tool mechanics. such as tool switching, cooling, lubricating, etc. Fig. 1 Functional architectureChronologically, this mission is also divided into two steps: control program planning and control program executiug. In the first step, there is no direct action on machine-tool multitask nature: “data acquisition and preprocessing” step. While in the second step, the control is effectively executed. It is worth to note that in the second step, the parallelization is possible due to the mechanics, only the motions as well as the operations to be performed are specified. This is the “data acquisition and preprocessing” step. While in the second step, the control is effectively executed. It is worth to note that in the second step, the parallelization is possible due to themultitask nature.3.FIP fieldbusTo meet the real-time communication need in our distributed machine-tool, FIP is adopted. In this section, we briefly explain the main technical properties of FIP.FIP (Factory Instrumentation Protocol) is an industrial network designed for the exchange of information between sensors, actuators and control devices such as PLCs, CNCs or robotcontrollers. The architecture of FIP follows the so-calkd reduced OS1 model (Physical layer, Data link layer and Application layer). This architecture makes a clear distinction between real-time communication and conventional message communication. At Data Link layer, there are services associated to variable transfers on the one hand and conventional messaging services on the other hand. At Application layer, we distinguish the MPS (Manufacturing Periodic/aperiodic Specification) services which use variable transfers of Data Link layer from the MMS services which are supported by the messaging services of the Data Link layer.FlP supports two transmission media: shielded twisted pair and optical fiber. It allows for a wide variety of topologies. The maximum length of a segment is 500 m ;and at most 4 segmentsare authorized with repeaters. Three bit rates have been defined: 31.25 K.bit/s, 1 Mbit/s and 2.5 Mbit/s.FIP medium access control is centralized. All transfers are under control of the Bus Arbiter that schedules transfers to comply with timing requirements. Transfers of variables and messages may take place periodically according to system configuration or aperiodicalIy under request from any station. In our application, only variable transfer of FIP is used.For variable exchanges, FIP uses the producer-consumer model. ‘Variables are identified by a unique identifier known from the producer and the consumers. A set of produced and consumed variables can be regrouped in one station, but the identifier is not related to any physical address of stations. Fig. 2 shows the broadcast of a variable.Fig2 Principle of MAC protocol of FIPFirst, the Bus Arbiter broadcasts a frame that holds the identifier of the variable. All nodes receive the frame and check whether they are producer or consumer of the variable or not concerned. In a third step, the station that recognizes itself as the producer replies with a response frame that contains the data. In a fourth step, all the consumers of this variable capture the value and store it. The consumers and the producer are formed when the update takes place.FlP defines two types of data exchanges: periodic and aperiodic. In both cases, the exchange takes place as indicated above (Fig. 6). In the first case, the Bus Arbiter knows from the configuration that it has to request periodically the transfer of the value corresponding to an identifier. In the second case, transfer requests are signaled to the Bus Arbiter that will serve them according to the available bandwidth.For our application, the real-time constraints are very stringent. To make the machine-tool to follow an accurate trajectory, the control of the axis must be synchronized. This requires that the control nodes connected by a network should simultaneously receive the starting order, so the network should be able to broadcast orders. To ensure that an order of the same instant is received by several receivers, a spacec onsistency statue is also necessary. For responsiveness reason, some sensors like movement-limit switches should be polled periodically requiring that the network be able to transmit periodic data without important delays.In one word, for an application like distributed machine-tool, the requirements like broadcast of data , the time and space consistencies, the periodic transmission can not be met by any general-purpose networks, a real-time network like FIP is then a good solution.4. Experimental implementationAs shown in Fig. 3, our application is aiming to realize a distributed two-axis machine-tool control system. It is composed of the following devices distributed on four nodes over FIP fieldbus:node1: a microcomputer (i80486 microprocessor). It is used as operator terminal,node 2. 3: two identical nodes. Each consists of a microcomputer (i80486) equipped with a motion controller (DCX PClOO+DCX MC 100).node 4: a PLC (LT 100) with sensors/actuators for auxiliary operations.network: FIP with 1Mbits/s over twisted pair medium is chosen.The software architecture of the implemented system is based on the concept of multilayered distributed control. It has a three-level hierarchy and the distribution is realizes at the second and the third levels. It consists the following layers:Analysis layer: performs selection of the control tasksIt is mapped on to the microcomputer of node 1 which provides an user interface. It deals with the program acquisition and storage, switches the different operational modes (manual and automatic modes), computes and sends the start and arrival points coordinates as well as other orders to each other node respectively.Rule layer: determines the control algorithms for a given task.It is mapped on to the two other microcomputers (node 2 and 3) which function is elementary displacements calculation (by interpolation) according to the given parameters and orders ( trajectory type, speed, acceleration,. etc.).One of the software design difficulties is the interpolation algorithms for each axis. Because after axis control distribution, the calculation of the intermediate coordinates of each axis becomes independent, the coherence of these axis should be ensured by correct algorithm design.Process layer: executes the control.It includes the two motion controllers and the PLC. These devices executes servo systemmotion control, handles the workpart holding/tightening, tools switch tasks and monitors system safety by evaluation of sensors and regulation of actuators.In order to verify if the proposed architecture is suitable with time constraints and network capacity, in is necessary to estimate the expected traffic.There are mainly two natures of information exchanges:●orders from central decision station (node 1) to other stations.●state information produced by the stations ( node1) to other stations.For example concerning our experimental platform, we have delined some variables distributed as following: Fig3 Hardware implementation5. Conclusionln this paper, we investigated a distributed machine-tool architecture in order to meet CIM requirements. Our research reached the step of validation through the realization of anexperimental implementation. We currently work on the simulation and performance analysis of the operating architecture to justify that the implementation meets real-time constraints. Our objectiveis not only an experimental prototype, but also the development of the theoretical methodology for the design, optimization of this distributed system.
