[0024] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] The present utility model provides a transmission structure of a gantry CNC machining center, including a fixed plate 1 and a sliding seat. One side of the fixed plate is movably connected with a ball screw 20. One side of the fixed plate is fixedly connected with a rotating motor 2. The end of the output shaft of the rotating motor 2 is fixedly connected with one end of the ball screw 20 through a speed reducer. Through the setting of the rotating motor 2, the rotation of the rotating motor 2 can drive the ball screw 20 fixedly connected thereto to rotate.

[0026] The outer ring of the ball screw 20 is threadedly connected with a ball nut 16. The sliding seat is connected with the ball nut 16. When the ball screw 20 rotates, the ball nut 16 threadedly connected with the ball screw 20 can move in the direction where the ball screw 20 is located. When the ball nut 16 moves, it can drive the sliding seat to move. When this transmission structure is applied to a gantry CNC machining center, the saddle can be fixed on the sliding seat, and this transmission structure is used to drive the saddle to move.

[0027] The above-mentioned sliding seat includes a driving part connected with the ball nut 16 and a driven part movably connected with the fixed plate 1. The driven part includes a driven sleeve 4 movably sleeved on the fixed plate 1. The inner wall of the driven sleeve 4 is movably connected with a roller 9. The driven sleeve 4 contacts the fixed plate 1 through the roller 9. Through the setting of the roller 9, the friction between the driven sleeve 4 and the fixed plate 1 can be reduced, facilitating the movement of the driven sleeve 4 in the direction where the fixed plate 1 is located. And when this transmission structure is in use, the structure fixed to the sliding seat is fixed on the driven sleeve 4, and the fixed plate 1 supports the structure connected to the sliding seat, reducing the influence on the ball screw 20 and prolonging the service life of the ball screw 20.

[0028] Both ends of the driven sleeve 4 are provided with a second cooling structure. The second cooling structure includes a wiping ring 7 and a second oil spraying ring 11 that are movably connected to the fixed plate 1. Both sides of the second oil spraying ring 11 are provided with second sponge rings 10. The inner walls of both the second sponge ring 10 and the wiping ring 7 are in contact with the outer surface of the fixed plate 1. The outer surface of the wiping ring 7 and the inner wall of the second sponge ring 10 are both coated with an oil-repellent coating. Through the setting of the wiping ring 7, during the movement of the driven sleeve 4, the wiping ring 7 can wipe off the impurities attached to the driven sleeve 4, facilitating the movement of the roller 9. Through the setting of the second oil spraying ring 11, lubricating oil can be sprayed onto the fixed plate 1 to lubricate the roller 9, reducing the friction between the roller 9 and the fixed plate 1. Moreover, the lubricating oil can cool the fixed plate 1, reducing the wear of the fixed plate 1. Through the setting of the second sponge ring 10, the second sponge ring 10 can adsorb the splashed oil liquid, reducing the waste of oil liquid, and the second sponge ring 10 can evenly apply the sprayed lubricating oil.

[0029] The active part includes a fixed part 3 fixedly connected to the driven sleeve 4 and a disassembly part 18 bolted to the fixed part 3. Both ends of the disassembly part 18 and one end of the fixed part 3 are provided with bolt holes 13 adapted to the bolts. Through the setting of the bolt holes 13, it is convenient to fix the disassembly part 18 to the fixed part 3.

[0030] Both the middle of the fixed part and the middle of the disassembly part 18 are provided with grooves. The two grooves form a through hole adapted to the ball nut 16. The outer ring of the ball nut 16 is provided with a limiting groove 17. A limiting block 19 adapted to the limiting groove 17 is fixed in the inner cavity of the groove. Through the setting of the limiting block 19, when the ball nut 16 moves, the active part can be driven by the limiting block 19, and the active part drives the driven part fixedly connected thereto to move. Thus, when the ball screw 20 rotates, the position of the sliding seat can be changed.

[0031] From the above description of the active part, it can be seen that after the disassembly part 18 is separated from the fixed part 3, the user can separate the ball nut 16 from the fixed part 3 by translation, facilitating the separation of the sliding seat from the ball nut 16.

[0032] Both ends of the groove are provided with a first cooling structure. The first cooling structure includes a first oil spraying ring 15 fixedly connected to the active part. The outer side of the first oil spraying ring 15 is provided with a first sponge ring 14 adapted to the ball screw 20. The inner wall of the first sponge ring 14 is in contact with the outer surface of the ball screw 20. The inner wall of the first sponge ring 14 is coated with an oil-repellent coating. The first sponge ring 14 is of a semi-circular structure. Through the setting of the first sponge ring 14, when the disassembly part 18 is fixed to the fixed part 3, the first sponge ring 14 on the disassembly part 18 and the first sponge ring 14 on the fixed part 3 can be in contact, and the first oil spraying ring 15 on the disassembly part 18 and the first oil spraying ring 15 on the fixed part 3 can be in contact. The cooling lubricating oil can be evenly sprayed onto the ball screw 20, and the first sponge ring 14 can evenly apply the lubricating oil.

[0033] At the top of the driving part, a cooling lubricating oil tank 6 and an oil pump 5 are fixed. A refrigerator 22 is arranged in the cooling lubricating oil tank 6. When the refrigerator 22 is a semiconductor refrigerator, the hot end of the refrigerator 22 is exposed to the air. Through the arrangement of the refrigerator 22, the refrigerator 22 can cool the lubricating oil. When the cooled lubricating oil is sprayed onto the ball screw 20, it can lubricate the ball nut 16, reduce the friction force between the ball nut 16 and the ball screw 20, and can also cool the frictional heat generated when the ball nut 16 and the ball screw 20 rub, thus prolonging the service life of the ball screw 20.

[0034] The liquid inlet end of the oil pump 5 is connected to the cooling lubricating oil tank 6 through an oil inlet pipe. The first oil spraying ring 15 is connected to the oil outlet end of the oil pump 5 through a first oil pipe 12. The second oil spraying ring 11 is connected to the oil outlet end of the oil pump 5 through a second oil pipe 8. And one ends of both the first oil pipe 12 and the second oil pipe 8 are provided with electric ball valves. Through the arrangement of the oil pump 5, the work of the oil pump 5 can pump the cooled lubricating oil into the inner cavity of the first oil spraying ring 15 or the second oil spraying ring 11. The lubricating oil in the first oil spraying ring 15 can be sprayed onto the outer surface of the ball screw 20 through the spray holes arranged on its side wall. The lubricating oil in the second oil spraying ring 11 can be sprayed onto the fixing plate 1 through the spray holes arranged on its side wall.

[0035] The outer rings at both ends of the above-mentioned ball screw 20 are both wrapped with telescopic tubes 21. One end of the telescopic tube 21 is magnetically connected to the driving part, and the other end of the telescopic tube 21 is magnetically connected to the fixing plate 1.

[0036] The material of the telescopic tube 21 can be a corrugated tube. Through the arrangement of the telescopic tube 21, the telescopic tube 21 can protect the ball screw 20, avoiding debris from splashing onto the ball screw 20 during the workpiece processing of the gantry CNC machining center.

[0037] In some embodiments of the present application, a magnet ring is fixed at the end of the corrugated tube, and metal iron is fixed on the outer surfaces of both the fixing plate 1 and the driving part. The oil-repellent coating is nano-silica. Through the arrangement of the oil-repellent coating, it can prevent the sponge from adsorbing the lubricating oil on the fixing plate 1 or the ball screw 20.

[0038] The electrical components involved in the present application are all prior arts. Those skilled in the art understand their connection methods.

[0039] In summary: When the transmission structure of the gantry CNC machining center is in use, the fixing plate 1 is used to fix the transmission structure on the gantry CNC machining center. The saddle of the gantry CNC machining center is fixed on the driven sleeve 4. When the rotating motor 2 works, the rotating motor 2 can drive the ball screw 20 fixedly connected thereto to rotate. The rotation of the ball screw 20 causes the ball nut 16 threadedly connected thereto to move in the direction where the ball screw 20 is located. During the movement of the ball nut 16, the slide is driven through the limit block 19, the saddle is driven by the slide, and the saddle can drive the spindle of the gantry CNC machining center connected thereto to move, facilitating the machining of workpieces. During the movement of the slide, the wiping ring 7 wipes off the impurities attached to the fixing plate 1, facilitating the movement of the roller 9. The telescopic tube 21 protects the ball screw 20, preventing the chips generated during the workpiece machining from falling on the ball screw 20. Moreover, the oil pump 5 can pump the cooled lubricating oil into the first oil injection ring 15 and the second oil injection ring 11. The lubricating oil sprayed by the first oil injection ring 15 is sprayed onto the ball screw 20 to lubricate the ball nut 16, reducing the friction force and frictional heat between the ball nut 16 and the ball screw 20. The lubricating oil sprayed by the second oil injection ring 11 is sprayed onto the fixing plate 1 to lubricate the roller 9, reducing the friction force and frictional heat between the roller 9 and the fixing plate 1, and extending the service life of the transmission structure.
