[0035] like Figures 1 to 9 The dual-exchange worktable shown is based on a worm gear pair and hydraulic combined drive, and includes:
[0036] Mounting base 1 is positioned between the pre-tooling and the cam roller turntable;
[0037] The rotary drive mechanism 2 is installed inside the mounting base 1 and includes a vertically arranged main spindle 21, a worm wheel 22 sleeved on the main spindle 21, and a worm 23 perpendicular to the main spindle 21 and meshing with the worm wheel 22 for transmission; the worm 23 is rotated by a drive motor, and the rotation of the main spindle 21 is achieved by the meshing of the worm wheel 22 and the worm 23.
[0038] The oil pressure driving mechanism 3 is coaxially arranged inside the main shaft 21, comprising a piston rod 31 fixed on the mounting base 1, a sliding sleeve 32 sleeved outside the piston rod 31, and a cover 33 arranged below the sliding sleeve 32, and the exchange support plate 4 is connected above the sliding sleeve 32; the sliding sleeve 32 slides up and down along the axis of the piston rod 31, and drives the exchange support plate 4 to realize the lifting of the rotary workbench.
[0039] The sliding shaft section 311 on the piston rod 31 forms the ascending oil cavity 321 and the descending oil cavity 322 of the sliding sleeve 32, and the ascending oil inlet 312 and the descending oil inlet 313 are arranged on the piston rod 31, and the piston rod 31 is provided with a positioning shaft section 314 at one end of the ascending oil cavity 321, and the ascending oil cavity 321 is provided with a positioning cavity 323 matched with the positioning shaft section 314.
[0040] In the implementation process of the present application, when the hydraulic oil enters the ascending oil cavity 321 through the ascending oil inlet 312, the sliding sleeve 32 moves upward along the axis, and drives the exchange support plate 4 to move upward, and after rising to the set highest point, the servo motor drives the worm gear 22 and the worm 23 to drive, so that the main shaft 21 rotates, and the sliding sleeve 32 rotates synchronously to complete the exchange of the rotary workbench; after the exchange is completed, the ascending oil cavity 321 stops oiling, the hydraulic oil enters the descending oil cavity 322 through the descending oil inlet 313, the sliding sleeve 32 moves downward along the axis, and when the rotary workbench is lowered to the height of starting to be placed, the positioning shaft section 314 gradually embeds into the positioning cavity 323 until the two rotary workbenches on the exchange support plate 4 are placed in place; in the present application, the ascending oil inlet 312 and the descending oil inlet 313 are arranged on the piston rod 31, which saves the space of external oil path layout, and through the arrangement of the positioning shaft section 314 and the positioning cavity 323, the descending sliding sleeve 32 is guided and centered, the sliding axis is prevented from deviating, the coaxiality of the sliding sleeve 32 and the piston rod 31 is ensured, and the positioning accuracy of the rotary workbench is further ensured.
[0041] In the preferred embodiment of the present application, the oil inlet hole of the ascending oil inlet 312 is arranged on the end face of the positioning shaft section 314, when the sliding sleeve 32 is in the ascending stage, the hydraulic oil enters the positioning cavity 323 and the ascending oil cavity 321 through the ascending oil inlet 312 arranged in the piston rod 31, when the sliding sleeve 32 is in the descending stage, the hydraulic oil enters the descending oil cavity 322 through the descending oil inlet 313 arranged in the piston rod 31, the hydraulic oil in the positioning cavity 323 and the ascending oil cavity 321 is sucked out from the oil inlet hole of the ascending oil inlet 312, and when the positioning shaft section 314 starts to enter the positioning cavity 323, the ascending oil cavity 321 is in a vacuum state at this time, which effectively ensures the stability of the ascending and descending of the sliding sleeve 32.
[0042] In order to ensure the entry of hydraulic oil in the descending oil chamber 322 when the sliding sleeve 32 rises to the highest point, the oil inlet hole of the descending oil inlet channel 313 is arranged on the cylindrical surface of the piston rod 31 at one end of the sliding shaft section 311; when the sliding sleeve 32 needs to move downward, the hydraulic oil enters the descending oil chamber 322 along the radial direction through the oil inlet hole of the descending oil inlet channel 313, in order to ensure that the pressure generated by the oil inlet hole can better realize the axial driving of the sliding sleeve 32, preferably, the piston rod 31 is provided with an annular oil groove 315 corresponding to the oil inlet hole of the descending oil inlet channel 313, and a conical abutting surface 331 is arranged on the cover 33, the conical abutting surface 331 is divergent along the direction close to the sliding shaft section 311, when the sliding sleeve 32 rises to the set position, the annular oil groove 315 and the conical abutting surface 331 form an oil pressure buffer groove, the oil pressure buffer groove can convert the driving force of the radial hydraulic oil into an axial driving force, thereby ensuring the implementability of the sliding sleeve 32 along the axis.
[0043] In order to ensure the stability of the oil pressure in the ascending oil chamber 321 and the descending oil chamber 322, the outer cylindrical surface of the sliding shaft section 311 in contact with the sliding sleeve 32 is provided with a sealing ring 5, and since the bottom of the sliding sleeve 32 is designed as an opening, preferably, the end surface of the cover 33 close to the sliding sleeve 32 is provided with a convex ring 332, the convex ring 332 is embedded in the descending oil chamber 322, and the inner and outer annular surfaces of the convex ring 332 are both provided with a sealing ring 5, thereby further ensuring the sealing property of the descending oil chamber 322 by adopting double sealing on the inner and outer sides.
[0044] In the preferred embodiment of the present application, the end face bearing 6 is arranged on the stepped surface of the descending oil chamber 322 close to the sliding shaft section 311, when the sliding sleeve 32 rises to the highest point, the cover 33 clamps the end face bearing 6 with the stepped surface of the sliding shaft section 311, thereby reducing the friction between the sliding sleeve 32 and the piston rod 31 during rotation, prolonging the service life of the sliding sleeve 32, and ensuring the stability of the rotation of the sliding sleeve 32.
[0045] In order to ensure the reliability of the synchronous rotation of the sliding sleeve 32 and the main shaft 21, the outer cylindrical surface of the sliding sleeve 32 is provided with a sliding groove 324 along the axis, and the main shaft 21 is provided with a positioning key 24, the positioning key 24 extends into the sliding groove 324 through the side wall of the main shaft 21, thereby limiting the free end of the sliding sleeve 32, so that the sliding sleeve 32 only has the lifting function when the oil pressure enters, and the positioning accuracy of the exchange support plate 4 is improved.
[0046] Due to the friction between the sliding sleeve 32 and the inner hole of the main shaft 21 during lifting, the main shaft 21 is prone to axial displacement, which causes the meshing point of the worm gear 22 and the worm 23 to deviate, and it is difficult to ensure the rotation accuracy. Therefore, in order to avoid the axial displacement of the main shaft 21, preferably, the outer cylindrical surface of the main shaft 21 is sleeved with a first tapered roller bearing 25 and a second tapered roller bearing 26, and the main shaft 21 is suspended and fixed on the mounting seat 1. The worm gear 22 is arranged between the first tapered roller bearing 25 and the second tapered roller bearing 26. Through the arrangement of the first tapered roller bearing 25 and the second tapered roller bearing 26, the axial displacement of the main shaft 21 can be effectively limited, and the centering accuracy of the worm gear 22 between the first tapered roller bearing 25 and the second tapered roller bearing 26 is ensured, thereby effectively ensuring the meshing accuracy.
[0047] On the basis of the above embodiment, the end of the main shaft 21 close to the second tapered roller bearing 26 is left with a safety gap from the mounting seat 1, avoiding friction between the end face of the main shaft 21 and the mounting seat 1. In addition, hydraulic oil is injected into the mounting seat 1, and a drain hole is arranged on the inner surface of the mounting seat 1, so that the internal hydraulic oil can be smoothly discharged.
[0048] In the present application, when the sliding sleeve 32 drives the exchange support plate 4 to rise, the distance between the exchange support plate 4 and the upper top surface of the mounting seat 1 increases. In order to avoid dust entering the internal bearing and causing damage, the mounting seat 1 is provided with a top cover 11 at one end of the first tapered roller bearing 25, and an oil seal structure 12 is arranged in the inner hole of the top cover 11, which plays a good sealing and dustproof effect.
[0049] It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present application is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions in the specification are only to illustrate the principles of the present application. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, various changes and improvements can be made to the present application, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the claimed present application.
