DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0022] See also Figure 1~Figure 4 As an embodiment of the present invention, the non-contact double-layer self-guiding high-efficiency waterproof aluminum plate machine dedicated electric spindle includes a body 9, wherein a stator coil 15 and a rotor shaft 14 are arranged in the body 9, wherein the stator coil 15 is coaxially arranged on the outer periphery of the rotor shaft 14 and connected to the inside of the body 9; The front and rear ends of the rotor shaft 14 are rotatably arranged inside the body 9 through a front bearing group and a rear bearing group respectively, and the front bearing group includes a first front bearing 17 and a second front bearing 20; the outer sides of the inner rings of the first front bearing 17 and the second front bearing 20 are locked by a locking nut 22, and the outer sides of the outer rings are connected to the front cover 21; The rear bearing group includes a first rear bearing 6 and a second rear bearing 10, and the inner rings of the first rear bearing 6 and the second rear bearing 10 are mounted on the rotor shaft 14 through a gland 5; The body 9 is provided with a fixing seat 3 at one end and an end cover 16 at the other end; A front inner spacer 18 and a front outer spacer 19 are arranged between the first front bearing 17 and the second front bearing 20; a front cover 21 is arranged at one end of the end cover 16 away from the fixing seat 3; a cone sleeve 24 is arranged at one end of the front cover 21 away from the end cover 16; an annular groove O-type sealing ring 23 is also arranged between the cone sleeve 24 and the outer periphery of the end cover 16; The fixing seat 3 is provided with a water inlet joint 2 and a water outlet joint 32. The fixing seat 3, the body 9, the end cover 16, and the cone sleeve 24 together form a spiral cooling channel. The water inlet joint 2 is connected to the water outlet joint 32 through the cooling channel, and the cooling channel is wrapped between the rotor shaft 14 and the stator coil 15. The front inner spacer 18 and the front outer spacer 19 are both connected to the front cover 21 and the locking nut 22 to form a double-layer non-contact sealing structure. The locking nut is used to lock the inner ring of the front bearing group so that the front bearing group can withstand axial force and radial force.
[0023] The present invention abandons conventional contact sealing and has a simpler structure. Moreover, due to the adoption of non-contact double-layer sealing means, a higher spindle speed can be obtained, compressed air is not required, and energy saving is significant.
[0024] As a further solution of the present invention, an aviation socket 1 is provided at one end of the rotor shaft 14 close to the fixed seat 3, and the aviation socket 1 is fixed on the fixed seat 3. An elastic collet 27 is installed at one end of the rotor shaft 14 away from the fixed seat 3. A tool 29 is clamped on the elastic collet 27, and the tool 29 is locked on the elastic collet 27 by a high-precision high-speed nut 28 for cutting processing.
[0025] As a further solution of the present invention, a spring seat 13 is fixedly installed at a position of the body 9 close to the fixing seat 3 by screws, and a dust cover 4 is installed at one end of the body 9 close to the spring seat 13. An adjusting gasket 11 is abutted on the side of the second rear bearing 11 facing away from the first rear bearing 6, one end of the adjusting gasket 11 abuts against one end of the spring 12, and the other end of the spring 12 abuts against the spring seat 13; the spring seat 13, the spring 12, and the adjusting gasket 11 form an elastic pre-tightening structure for ensuring that the pre-tightening force of the rear bearing group meets the requirements. If the pre-tightening force is insufficient, the gap can be adjusted by relying on the adjusting gasket 11.
[0026] The dust cover 4 can prevent unclean air and dust from entering the rear bearing assembly.
[0027] As a further solution of the present invention, a secondary water retaining and collecting deflector 25 is non-contactly mounted on one end of the locking nut 22 away from the fixing seat 3 , and a primary water retaining and collecting deflector 26 is non-contactly mounted outside the secondary water retaining and collecting deflector 25 .
[0028] As a further solution of the present invention, a labyrinth gap is formed between the end cover 16 and the locking nut 22, and the labyrinth gap cooperates with the front cover 21 to prevent water vapor and dust from entering the front bearing group in a harsh environment; wherein the labyrinth gap acts as a labyrinth sealing structure, which serves as a third line of defense to strictly prevent dust particles from entering the front bearing group; the secondary water retaining and collecting shroud 25 installed on the end cover 16 is made of non-metallic material to form a non-contact water-blocking structure, which serves as a second line of defense for collecting water mist; In detail, flow guide holes are formed on the secondary water retaining and collecting flow guide cover 25 and the primary water retaining and collecting flow guide cover 26, and a collection groove is also formed on the primary water retaining and collecting flow guide cover 26. The purpose of using non-metallic materials for the secondary water retaining and collecting flow guide cover 25 is to reduce the gap between it and the high-speed rotating rotor shaft 14, and the water mist forms water droplets in the secondary water retaining and collecting flow guide cover 25 and is discharged through the flow guide holes to prevent the water vapor from overflowing from the primary water retaining and collecting flow guide cover 26; the water vapor overflowing from the primary water retaining and collecting flow guide cover 26 into the secondary water retaining and collecting flow guide cover 25 forms water droplets in the secondary water retaining and collecting flow guide cover 25 and is discharged through the flow guide holes to the collection groove on the primary water retaining and collecting flow guide cover 26.
[0029] The primary water-blocking and collecting deflector 26 can block most of the dust and water vapor, and there are two deflection holes, which are cross-arranged. This arrangement can not only prevent external water vapor from entering, but also allow internal water droplets to be discharged. The structure is unique and novel, and the waterproof and dustproof effect is good.
[0030] As a further solution of the present invention, the water inlet joint 2 is connected to a coolant pump, and the coolant is water-activated low-viscosity oil; the pressure cover 5 presses the rotor shaft 14 and the inner ring of the rear bearing group through a locking screw to prevent axial movement of the rear bearing group.
[0031] The outer periphery of one end of the cooling channel close to the end cover 16 and close to the fixing seat 3 is respectively provided with a first water channel O-type sealing ring 30 and a second water channel O-type sealing ring 31 .
[0032] The present invention abandons the complex contact sealing structure and adopts a non-contact double-layer high-efficiency collection and diversion device, which can achieve a higher spindle speed without the use of compressed air and save energy significantly. In addition, the double-layer high-efficiency sealing self-collecting and self-draining sealing structure is adopted, which has a compact structure, good waterproof effect and significant energy saving.
[0033] The coolant flows in from the water inlet joint 2 on the fixing seat 3, enters the end cover 16 after passing through the spiral cooling channel, and then is discharged from the water outlet joint 32 through another spiral cooling flow, realizing system circulation cooling. It can not only cool the rotor shaft 14, but also cool the stator coil 15, the front bearing group, and the rear bearing group.
[0034] The spacer set can ensure that the front and rear group bearings are evenly stressed, and the labyrinth gap can well block dust particles and ensure sealing reliability; the secondary water-blocking and collecting guide cover 25 and the primary water-blocking and collecting guide cover 26 can prevent aluminum chips generated by aluminum plate processing and most of the water mist generated by high-speed rotation. Even if part of the water mist enters through the labyrinth gap, it will quickly form water droplets into the collection tank of the primary water-blocking and collecting guide cover 26 under the action of the secondary water-blocking and collecting guide cover 25, and then be discharged by itself. The cross-guide holes can not only discharge the water droplets formed by the water mist by themselves, but also prevent the water mist from entering directly.
[0035] The benefits of the present invention are as follows: (1) The special electric spindle for aluminum plate machine abandons the complex contact sealing structure. The general labyrinth seal cannot guarantee the waterproof effect in harsh environment, and a novel non-contact seal is used. It is frictionless, has a longer service life, has low vibration, high operating precision, and can obtain a higher spindle speed. When the bearing is lubricated with grease, the speed can reach more than 36,000 rpm. The non-contact double-layer collection self-guiding seal plus the labyrinth seal obtains a better sealing effect; (2) The spindle structure is simple and compact but powerful. While rotating at high speed, it can effectively prevent the intrusion of water mist generated by the complex external environment during aluminum plate machine processing, thereby ensuring its processing accuracy and extending its service life; (3) The special electric spindle of the present invention does not require special materials or processes in its manufacturing, has low cost and reliable performance, can be widely used in high-speed processing of various materials, and is particularly suitable for the processing of deep hole cavity parts.
[0036] The rotor shaft 14 expands and contracts due to temperature changes during operation, causing the shaft core to lengthen and shorten slightly. The elastic preload structure ensures that the bearing can maintain a certain preload force during the thermal expansion and contraction of the rotor shaft, so that the rotor shaft can operate normally during high-speed processing.
[0037] The above embodiments are exemplary rather than restrictive, so the technical solutions of the present invention that can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic features of the present invention are all included in the present invention.
