[0065] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the processing status of an automatic detection and processing integrated tool provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a detection mode for an automatic detection and processing integrated tool provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the processing state of an automatic detection and processing integrated tool provided in an embodiment of the present application. The present invention provides an automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100, including a probe 1, a probe rod 2, a detection unit 3, a cylinder 4, a guide tube, a cylinder push rod 8, a blade 10, and a tool body 11, wherein the blade 10 is arranged on one side of the top of the tool body 11, and the blade 10 is used to process the processing part 9; the guide tube is arranged on the side of the tool body 11 and away from the side of the blade 10; the cylinder 4 is installed at the bottom of the guide tube; the detection unit 3 is connected to the cylinder 4 through the cylinder push rod 8, and the detection unit 3 is arranged on the upper part of the cylinder 4; the probe rod 2 is arranged on the top of the detection unit 3, and the probe 1 is arranged on the top of the probe rod 2.

[0066] Through the automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100 of the present invention, tool processing and a detection unit with a measuring function are integrated together, and the mutual interference area during processing and measurement is effectively avoided through a design mechanism, thereby achieving the integration of processing and measuring functions.

[0067] Specifically, the automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100 of the present invention further includes an air pipe 5 and a detector line 6 . The air pipe 5 is arranged at the bottom of the cylinder 4 ; the detector line 6 is arranged at the bottom of the cylinder 4 .

[0068] Specifically, when the integrated tool is in a processing state, the probe rod 2 is retracted in the guide tube, and when the integrated tool is in a detection mode, the probe rod 2 is extended out of the guide tube.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present invention, when the integrated tool is in a processing state, the upper guide tube protects the probe 1 from the impact of cutting fluid and chips. When the integrated tool is in a detection mode, the air pipe 5 in the lower guide tube pushes the probe 1 along the inner hole of the guide tube to avoid interference between the probe 1 and the tool during measurement. The inner holes of the upper and lower guide tubes must be combined and processed at one time, because the straightness and cylindricity of the inner hole of the guide tube ensure the measurement stability and consistency of the measurement reference position after the probe 1 is extended. At the same time, air is blown from the inner hole of the guide tube to clean the probe 1 and the detected area.

[0070] Specifically, the probe 1 is a probe detection sensor, and the probe 1 is communicatively connected with the numerical control system.

[0071] Specifically, the numerical control system is provided with a memory for storing the detection data of the probe 1 .

[0072] In one embodiment of the present invention, by adding a contact probe detection sensor to a common tool, after the tool processing is completed, the contact probe detection sensor is moved to the processing position of the workpiece to perform mobile detection and measurement data collection, and data analysis and automatic correction of tool parameters are achieved through the CNC system.

[0073] In one embodiment of the present invention, after the contact probe detection sensor measures data, the tool wear compensation value is obtained through the program algorithm. If it exceeds the set compensation value range, it is judged that the tool is damaged and needs to be replaced. If it does not exceed, it is automatically input into the corresponding tool compensation memory of the CNC system, and the system continues production. Thus, the production line achieves the purpose of intelligent processing and production.

[0074] Specifically, the guide tube includes an upper guide tube and a lower guide tube, and the upper guide tube is threadedly connected to the lower guide tube.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present invention, an upper guide protective sleeve 7A is sleeved on the outer side of the upper guide tube, and a lower guide protective sleeve 7B is sleeved on the outer side of the lower guide tube for protecting the upper guide tube and the lower guide tube.

[0076] In one embodiment of the present invention, the upper guide tube and the lower guide tube are connected by threads, which is convenient for disassembly, cleaning and maintenance of the contact probe detection sensor in the tube or replacement of worn parts of the detection unit.

[0077] Specifically, when the integrated tool is in the detection mode, the center height of the probe 1 is the same as the tip height of the blade 10 .

[0078] In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to ensure that the processing datum and the measurement datum are effectively coincident, the center height of the probe 1 is made the same as the tip height of the blade 10 through structural design, thereby effectively ensuring that the processing and measurement accuracy are true and reliable, and at the same time facilitating the installation and alignment of the processing and measurement assembly in the equipment.

[0079] The present invention further provides a working method of an automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100, including the above-mentioned automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100, and the working method of the automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100 includes:

[0080] Step S1, when the integrated tool is in a processing state, the probe rod 2 is retracted in the guide tube.

[0081] Step S2: When the integrated tool is in the detection mode, the probe rod 2 extends out of the guide tube.

[0082] Step S3 , the probe 1 detects data of the blade 11 , and the probe rod 2 blows air to the probe 1 .

[0083] Step S4, storing the detection data into a memory, determining whether the detection data exceeds a set change value, if so, automatically calculating a deviation value, and controlling the compensation blade 10 to compensate for wear, if not, retracting the probe 1 into the guide tube.

[0084] See also Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the test status of an automatic detection and processing integrated tool provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the processing state of an automatic detection and processing integrated tool provided in an embodiment of the present application. In one embodiment of the present invention, the automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100 is installed in a tool holder 13, and the tool holder 13 is used to stabilize the automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100 to prevent the automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100 from being unstable during testing or processing. At least part of the automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100 extends out of the workbench 14, and the tool holder 13 is arranged at the bottom of the workbench 14. Specifically, the blade 10 of the automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100 extends out of the workbench 14, and the processing part 9 is installed at the bottom of the three-jaw chuck 12, and the three-jaw chuck 12 is used to fix the processing part 9 and stabilize the processing part 9, and the three-jaw chuck 12 is arranged at the bottom of the spindle 15.

[0085] The automatic detection and processing integrated tool 100 of the present invention adds a contact probe detection sensor to a common tool body. During the production process, in the processing state, the high-precision probe rod 2 shrinks in the guide tube to protect the safety of the probe 1 in the processing state of the blade 10. After the blade 10 of the tool is completed, when the processing state is changed to the detection mode, the high-precision probe rod 2 uses the cylinder 4 to extend the tool body 11 and blow high-pressure air to the probe 1 to clean the probe 1 and the detection part. The equipment motion platform is used to perform real-time detection and data collection on the processing part part and store it in the numerical control system memory. The numerical control system uses the detection program to analyze and judge the data in the memory. If the data exceeds the set change value, the system automatically calculates the deviation value and compensates it to the wear memory of the current tool, realizing automatic compensation of the tool parameters. If the detection data is qualified, the probe retracts the tool body to avoid erosion by iron pins and cutting fluid during the processing. The program performs the next step of processing. If the detection is out of tolerance, the numerical control system calls the previous program and uses the tool with revised parameters to reprocess the unqualified part of the workpiece to meet the requirements.

[0086] The present invention also proposes an electronic device, the electronic device includes a processor and a memory, the memory stores program instructions, and the processor runs the program instructions to implement the above-mentioned working method of automatically detecting and processing integrated tools.
