The X-axis motion mechanism 110, the Y-axis motion mechanism 130, and the Z-axis motion mechanism 120 are respectively used to drive the corresponding spindles 300 to move along the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis directions, and the first rotating mechanism 200 is used to drive the corresponding spindles 300 to rotate; the transposition device 500 is arranged on the machine base 600; the two worktables 400 are placed on the transposition device 500, and one of the worktables 400 is located at the machining station, and the other worktable 400 is located at the loading and unloading station. The transposition device 500 is used to drive the rotation and transposition between the two worktables 400.

[0035] It can be understood that, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the first rotating mechanism 200 drives the spindle 300 to rotate, making the spindle 300 more flexible in machining and effectively improving the machining accuracy of the product. Among them, in this embodiment, the first rotating mechanism 200 can adopt the cooperation of a rotating motor 210 and a turntable 220 to realize the rotation of the spindle 300; specifically, the rotating motor 210 is arranged on the Y-axis motion mechanism 130, the turntable 220 is arranged on the output shaft of the rotating motor 210, and the spindle 300 is arranged on the turntable 220. By driving the turntable 220 to rotate through the rotating motor 210, the spindle 300 is driven to rotate, so as to increase the machining angle of the spindle 300 and make the machining of the spindle 300 more flexible.

[0036] It can be understood that, referring to Figure 1 andFigure 2 In this embodiment, two main shafts 300 are provided. The two main shafts 300 can simultaneously process a workpiece, greatly improving the processing efficiency. In addition, in some other embodiments, the two main shafts 300 can also simultaneously process two workpieces respectively to improve the processing efficiency. Of course, according to the actual situation, in some other embodiments, the number of main shafts 300 can also be set to one or three, and the specific number is not limited here.

[0037] Among them, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in this embodiment, one X-axis movement mechanism 110 is provided, and two Y-axis movement mechanisms 130, two Z-axis movement mechanisms 120 and two first rotation mechanisms 200 are provided according to the number of main shafts 300, so that they can respectively control the actions of the two main shafts 300, thereby improving the working efficiency of the equipment. Of course, according to the actual situation, in some other embodiments, the X-axis movement mechanism 110 can also be set to two to respectively drive the two main shafts 300 to move along the X-axis. The specific numbers of the X-axis movement mechanism 110, Y-axis movement mechanism 130, Z-axis movement mechanism 120 and first rotation mechanism 200 are not limited here.

[0038] It can be understood that referring to Figure 1 , in this embodiment, two worktables 400 are provided. Among them, one end of the machining center close to the main shaft 300 is set as the machining station, and the other end is set as the loading and unloading station. When one worktable 400 is at the machining station, the main shaft 300 processes the product on this worktable 400. At the same time, the other worktable 400 is at the loading and unloading station. First, the processed product is taken off, and then the next product to be processed is placed on this worktable 400. After the product at the machining station is processed, the transposition device 500 transposes the two worktables 400 to achieve non-stop material replacement of the equipment, effectively improving the utilization rate and automation degree of the equipment.

[0039] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the worktable 400 is placed on the transposition device 500. When the worktable 400 needs to be transposed, the transposition device 500 rotates the two worktables 400 to the corresponding stations, and the main shaft 300 starts to process the product at the machining station. At the same time, the worktable 400 at the loading and unloading station can be loaded.

[0040] It can be understood that the double-spindle exchange table machining center further includes a spindle swing mechanism and a table drive mechanism. The spindle swing mechanism is used to drive the spindle to swing, and the table drive mechanism drives the table to rotate. Among them, in this embodiment, there are two sets of X-axis movement mechanisms 110, Y-axis movement mechanisms 130, Z-axis movement mechanisms 120, and spindle swing mechanisms, and one set of table drive mechanisms and transposition devices 500 are provided to achieve five-sided machining with double-spindle non-stop material change.

[0041] In addition, in some other embodiments, there is one set of X-axis movement mechanism 110, Y-axis movement mechanism 130, Z-axis movement mechanism 120, spindle swing mechanism, table drive mechanism, and transposition device 500 to achieve five-sided machining with single-spindle non-stop material change.

[0042] Alternatively, in some other embodiments, five-sided machining with double-spindle stop-and-change material can be achieved through two sets of X-axis movement mechanisms 110, two sets of Y-axis movement mechanisms 130, two sets of Z-axis movement mechanisms 120, two sets of spindle swing mechanisms, and one set of table drive mechanisms.

[0043] Furthermore, in some other embodiments, five-sided machining with single-spindle stop-and-change material can be achieved through one set of X-axis movement mechanism 110, one set of Y-axis movement mechanism 130, one set of Z-axis movement mechanism 120, one set of spindle swing mechanism, and one set of table drive mechanism.

At the same time, the first rotation mechanism 200 drives the spindle 300 to rotate and change the angle, making the machining of the spindle 300 more flexible. In addition, one end of the machining center close to the spindle 300 is set as the machining station, and the other end is set as the loading and unloading station. When the product on the table 400 at the machining station is being machined, loading can be carried out on the table 400 at the loading and unloading station. After the product in the working area is machined, the table 400 is lifted by the transposition device 500 and then rotated and transposed, so that the table 400 at the loading and unloading station rotates to the machining station, and the table 400 at the machining station rotates to the loading and unloading station, thereby achieving non-stop material change, greatly improving the utilization rate of the equipment, and making the automation degree of the equipment higher.

[0046] It is understandable that, with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in this embodiment, the Z-axis moving mechanism 120 includes a column 121 and a second linear driving device (not shown in the drawings). The column 121 is arranged on the first linear driving device 111, and the second linear driving device is arranged on the column 121 and is used to drive the main shaft 300 to move in the Z-axis direction.

[0047] It is understandable that, with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in this embodiment, the Y-axis moving mechanism 130 includes a mounting block 131 and a third linear driving device 132. The mounting block 131 is arranged on the second linear driving device, and the third linear driving device 132 is arranged on the mounting block 131 and is used to drive the main shaft 300 to move in the Y-axis direction.

[0048] Among them, in this embodiment, the first linear driving device 111 can be realized by a linear motor for driving. Specifically, the linear motor is arranged on the machine table 600 along the X-axis direction, the column 121 is arranged on the linear motor, and the column 121 is driven by the linear motor to move along the X-axis direction, so as to drive the main shaft 300 to move along the X-axis direction.

Specifically, the motor is arranged on the machine table 600, the lead screw is arranged along the X-axis, and one end of the lead screw is connected to the motor, and the other end is rotatably connected to the machine table 600. The column 121 is connected to the lead screw nut on the lead screw. The motor drives the lead screw to rotate, so as to drive the lead screw nut to move along the X-axis direction, thereby driving the column 121 to move along the X-axis direction to drive the main shaft 300 to move along the X-axis direction.

[0049] Among them, in this embodiment, the second linear driving device and the third linear driving device 132 can also be realized by a linear motor for driving. Specifically, the linear motor of the second linear driving device is arranged on the column 121 along the Z-axis direction, the mounting block 131 is arranged on the linear motor, and the linear motor drives the mounting block 131 to move along the Z-axis direction to drive the main shaft 300 to move along the Z-axis direction. At the same time, the linear motor of the third linear driving device 132 is arranged on the mounting block 131 along the Y-axis direction, and the first rotating mechanism 200 is arranged on the linear motor. The linear motor drives the first rotating mechanism 200 to move along the Y-axis direction to drive the main shaft 300 to move along the Y-axis direction.

[0050] In addition, in some other embodiments, the second linear driving device and the third linear driving device 132 can also be driven by cooperating a motor with a lead screw. The lead screw of the second linear driving device is arranged on the column 121 along the Z-axis direction, and the lead screw of the third linear driving device 132 is arranged on the mounting block 131 along the Y-axis direction. The motor drives the corresponding lead screw to rotate respectively, so as to drive the main shaft 300 to move along the Z-axis and Y-axis directions.

The column 121 is connected to the first sliding component, the mounting block 131 is connected to the second sliding component, and the first rotating mechanism 200 is connected to the third sliding component, so as to guide the movement of the column 121, the mounting block 131 and the first rotating mechanism 200, make their movement smoother and more stable, and thus ensure the stable movement of the main shaft 300.

[0052] Specifically, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in this embodiment, the sliding component 700 can realize sliding guidance by cooperating a slide rail 710 with a slider 720; specifically, the slide rail 710 is arranged on the machine table 600, the column 121 and the mounting block 131 along the X-axis, Z-axis and Y-axis directions, the slider 720 is respectively slidably connected to the corresponding slide rail 710, the column 121 is connected to the slider 720 of the first sliding component, the mounting block 131 is connected to the slider 720 of the second sliding component, and the first rotating mechanism 200 is connected to the slider 720 of the third sliding component.

[0053] It can be understood that, in this embodiment, both the column 121 and the mounting block 131 adopt a hollow frame structure, making the overall movement of the three-axis motion device 100 lighter, so as to be able to drive the rapid movement and feed machining of the main shaft 300. At the same time, the machine table 600 also adopts a hollow frame structure, making the overall weight of the machining center lighter and facilitating the subsequent movement and handling of the equipment.

When the workbenches 400 need to be replaced, the second rotating mechanism 520 drives the rotating plate 510 to rotate, thereby driving the rotation and replacement between the two workbenches 400, thereby realizing non-stop material replacement of the equipment.

[0056] It is understood that, in addition to placing the workbench 400 on the rotating plate 510, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, one or two supporting mechanisms 800 can also be set.

[0057] Specifically, in this embodiment, two support mechanisms 800 are provided, one of which is provided at the processing station, and the other is provided at the loading and unloading station; specifically, when the two workbenches 400 need to be switched, the cam divider drives the rotating plate 510 to move upward to receive the workbench 400, and then the cam divider drives the rotating plate 510 to rotate, rotating the workbench 400 to above the corresponding station, and then the cam divider drives the rotating plate 510 to move downward again, thereby driving the workbench 400 to fall and be placed on the corresponding support mechanism 800, and the cam divider continues to drive the rotating plate 510 to descend, and the rotating plate 510 is separated from the workbench 400, thereby avoiding greater pressure on the rotating plate 510 during product processing or loading, thereby ensuring the service life of the rotating plate 510, and making the processing and loading and unloading of products more stable.

[0058] In addition, in some other embodiments, only one supporting mechanism 800 may be provided, and it is disposed at a processing station to support the workbench 400 that rotates to the processing station.

[0059] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, openings 511 are respectively provided at both ends of the rotating plate 510 for the support plate 810 to pass through. After the rotating plate 510 transports the workbench 400 to the position, the cam divider drives the rotating plate 510 to descend, so that the support plate 810 passes through the opening 511, so that the workbench 400 falls on the support plate 810 and is separated from the rotating plate 510.

When the upper support plate 812 slides downward in the direction close to the lower support plate 813, the positioning protrusions 811 can pass through the through holes 814 and protrude from the upper support plate 812. Specifically, when the workbench 400 is placed on the upper support plate 812, the workbench 400 presses down the upper support plate 812, so that the positioning protrusions 811 protrude upward from the through holes 814 and are placed in the positioning grooves 410 of the workbench 400, thereby positioning and fixing the workbench 400.

[0062] It can be understood that, with reference to Figures 3 to 6 , in this embodiment, a buffer mechanism 900 is arranged on the upper support plate 812. The buffer mechanism 900 is used to buffer when the upper support plate 812 receives the workbench 400, so as to reduce the impact on the support plate 810 caused by the direct fall of the workbench 400, thereby ensuring the service life of the support plate 810.

[0063] Specifically, with reference to Figure 4 and Figure 6, in this embodiment, the buffer mechanism 900 includes a connection block 910, a buffer head 920, a connecting rod 930, and a spring 940. The connection block 910 is disposed on the bracket 820, the connecting rod 930 is disposed on the connection block 910, the spring 940 is sleeved on the connecting rod 930, the buffer head 920 is movably disposed on the connection block 910, and is sleeved on the top end of the connecting rod 930, so that the bottom surface of the buffer head 920 is in contact with the top end of the spring 940. The top end of the buffer head 920 passes through the lower support plate 813 and is connected to the upper support plate 812. When the workbench 400 falls onto the upper support plate 812, the workbench 400 presses the upper support plate 812 downward, causing the upper support plate 812 to push the buffer head 920 downward, and the buffer head 920 squeezes the spring 940 downward, thereby transmitting the force of the falling of the workbench 400 to the spring 940, so as to buffer the falling of the workbench 400.

[0064] It can be understood that, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in this embodiment, the double-spindle exchange workbench machining center further includes a tool magazine 1100. The tool magazine 1100 is disposed on the machine table 600, and the number thereof is equal to the number of spindles. Specifically, in this embodiment, two tool magazines 1100 are provided according to the number of spindles 300, and the two tool magazines 1100 are respectively disposed on both sides of the machine table 600 and on one side of the corresponding spindle 300, so that the spindle 300 can achieve rapid tool change at a short distance, thereby improving the machining efficiency.
