Unit configuration type machine tool, transfer device, working equipment

Abstract

A machine tool (2) is provided with a base (2A) and a plurality of kinds of mechanism units (2U). The mechanism units (2U) have a unit wiring (67), respectively. A part of the mechanism units (2U) has a unit contained control circuit (2Ud) that controls a drive source (2Uc) in the unit. A transfer device (1) is provided with a guide attached frame (12) and a traveling body (3). The guide attached frame (12) is formed by connecting a plurality of traveling guide units (12U). Linear and curved traveling guide units (12U) are prepared. A traveling drive of the traveling body (3) is a linear motor (5) constituted of a plurality of individual motors (6), which are primary side armatures provided to the traveling guide units (12U), and a movable part (7) provided to the traveling body (3).

Description

technical field [0001] This application claims the priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-239419 for which it applied on October 26, 2010, All these are used by reference as the content which comprises a part of this application. Background technique [0002] The present invention relates to a combined structure machine tool, conveying device, and processing equipment capable of transforming into various forms to cope with mixed flow production, etc. [0003] In the past, it has been proposed to make the feed table, spindle box, tool rest, etc. installed on the bed into a combined structure type in the machine tool, and to form a combined structure machine tool such as a turning center or a machining center through unit reorganization (for example, the patent document 1). This reorganized machine tool is known as a modular machine tool or a block build machine tool. [0004] In addition, as a conveying device for loading and unloading workpieces into and out of m...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the wiring work is complicated, and on-site reorganization becomes difficult

In particular, the amplifier for driving the unit, which is an accessory of the chuck changing device, etc., has conventionally been installed in the console, so the wiring is greatly different depending on whether the accessory unit is installed, and the wiring work is more complicated.

[0013] Moreover, the combined structure processing equipment of the prior art has not thought of the unitization of the conveying device. When carrying out the reorganization or expansion of the machine tool, it is necessary to design the conveying device suitable for the reorganized and expanded machine tool.

Therefore, although a combination structure machine tool is used, there is no one that can fully exert the effect of its freedom of reorganization.
