Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of airtight equipment for numerically controlled lathes, in particular to a sealing structure for a tailstock spindle of a numerically controlled lathe and a sealing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The CNC lathe is a Class A high-precision equipment in the axle workshop. It is the main equipment for precision turning the three-diameter axle. It is responsible for high-precision three-diameter axle turning instead of grinding. The electric spindle is a technology that integrates the machine tool spindle and the spindle motor in the field of CNC machine tools. It belongs to the high-precision technology industry. The electric spindle is installed on various machine tools for the processing of parts. The processing of most parts requires the injection of cutting fluid, which will also produce iron filings and other dirt. When the electric spindle is used at a higher speed and in a complex environment, dirt is not allowed to enter the shaft core and bearings of the electric spindle. Moreover, the matching requirements of some parts inside the electric spindle are very high, and dirt is not allowed to enter the spindle.
[0003] In the prior art, the sealing form of the tailstock spindle of a CNC lathe is radially installed by relying on the front end cover. The VD95A end water seal ring and the axially installed VD95A end water seal ring are not ideal in blocking cutting fluid and metal powder when used on site, especially when the tailstock spindle rotates at high speed, which makes it easy for cutting fluid and metal powder to penetrate into the tailstock spindle, causing damage to the tailstock spindle bearing.
[0004] Based on this, the present invention designs a CNC lathe tailstock spindle sealing structure and method thereof to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a CNC lathe tailstock spindle sealing structure and method thereof, so as to solve the problem that in the prior art proposed in the above-mentioned background technology, when the tailstock spindle rotates at a high speed, the barrier effect on cutting fluid and metal powder is not ideal, resulting in the cutting fluid and metal powder easily penetrating into the tailstock spindle, causing damage to the tailstock spindle bearing.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a CNC lathe tailstock spindle sealing structure, comprising a lathe tailstock and a rotating spindle rotatably connected in the lathe tailstock, wherein the left end of the rotating spindle is fixedly connected to a processing spindle, the end of the lathe tailstock is fixedly connected to a sealing seat in a detachable manner, the inner wall of the sealing seat is rotatably connected to the left end surface of the rotating spindle, the left end of the processing spindle extends out of the sealing seat, and an airtight mechanism is arranged in the sealing seat;
[0007] The airtight mechanism comprises an airtight cylinder, which is sleeved in a sealing seat, an inner wall of the right end of the airtight cylinder is rotatably connected to the right end surface of the machining spindle, a left end of the airtight cylinder is fixedly connected to the sealing seat in a detachable manner, a throttle valve is fixedly connected to the left end of the airtight cylinder, a sealing cover is fixedly connected to the left end of the throttle valve in a detachable manner, an inner wall of the right end of the sealing cover is sleeved on the outer wall of the sealing seat and is detachably fixedly connected to the surface of the sealing seat, a sealing ring is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the left end of the sealing cover, the sealing ring is sleeved on the surface of the machining spindle and is rotatably connected to the machining spindle;
[0008] A connecting cavity is arranged in a common array inside the airtight cylinder and the side wall of the throttle valve. One end of the connecting cavity is connected to the outer wall of the throttle valve, and the other end is connected to the inner wall of the right end of the airtight cylinder. Connectors are fixedly connected to the positions of the connecting cavity ports on the outer wall of the throttle valve. The connectors are fixedly connected to ventilation pipes. The ventilation pipes are fixedly connected to the external pneumatic triplet. A clearance groove is arranged in an array on the side wall of the right end of the sealing cover.
[0009] The sealing ring end array is provided with a tapered groove;
[0010] During operation, in the prior art, when the tailstock spindle rotates at high speed, the barrier effect on cutting fluid and metal powder is not ideal, which causes the cutting fluid and metal powder to easily penetrate into the tailstock spindle, causing the tailstock spindle bearing to be damaged. The specific operation is as follows: first install the rotating spindle and the machining spindle into the lathe tailstock, and connect them to the power components in the lathe tailstock, then fix the sealing seat to the left end of the lathe tailstock by bolts, then insert the airtight cylinder and the throttle valve into the sealing seat, and fix them by bolts, and then put the sealing cover with a sealing ring on the surface of the sealing seat and fix it by bolts, finally connect the vent pipes to the connectors on the surface of the throttle valve respectively, and at the same time, fix the vent pipes to the pneumatic triplet of the peripheral device. When the machining spindle is working, the pneumatic triplet sets the sealing pressure value at 0.5MPa, and passes the vent pipe The high-pressure gas is injected, so that the high-pressure gas passes through a throttle valve with adjustable air flow rate, and then is injected into the airtight cylinder through the connecting cavity, thereby increasing the pressure inside the airtight cylinder. While the pressure inside the airtight cylinder increases, a small part of the gas is sprayed toward the surface of the machining spindle through the conical groove, and the cutting fluid and metal waste close to the surface of the sealing ring are flushed away from the surface of the sealing ring, thereby effectively blocking the entry of metal powder, cutting fluid, dust, etc. generated during equipment processing. At the same time, due to the continuous injection of high-pressure airflow, the heat generated by the bearing support system during high-speed continuous operation can be taken away, thereby improving the heat dissipation conditions of the system, extending the service life of the bearing, and solving the problem that the barrier effect of the cutting fluid and metal powder is not ideal when the tailstock spindle rotates at high speed, resulting in the cutting fluid and metal powder easily penetrating into the tailstock spindle, causing the tailstock spindle bearing to be damaged.

By setting a partition, the airtight cylinder is divided into multiple chambers of the same size, and high-pressure gas passes through each chamber. When the pressure in a chamber is reduced, the ventilation pipe at that location can be individually controlled by an external pneumatic triplet to increase the pressure in the chamber, so that the pressures at different positions of the airtight cylinder are the same, and the amount of gas sprayed from each conical groove is the same, thereby improving the barrier effect on cutting fluid and metal powder.
[0012] As a further solution of the present invention, the inner wall of the airtight cylinder is fixedly connected with an annular connecting plate, the partitions are fixedly connected with the annular connecting plate, the inner wall of the annular connecting plate is rotatably connected to the surface of the machining spindle, and the surface array of the annular connecting plate is provided with flow holes; when working, the airtight cylinder is divided into two left and right pressurized chambers by setting the annular connecting plate and the flow holes, thereby improving the airtightness of the airtight cylinder, thereby improving the barrier effect against cutting fluid and metal powder.
[0013] As a further solution of the present invention, a rotating shaft is rotatably connected in an array on the right side wall of the annular connecting plate, a spiral conveying blade is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft, the right end of the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inner side of the airtight cylinder, and a driving blade is fixedly connected to the surface of the right end of the rotating shaft; during operation, by arranging the spiral conveying blades and the driving blades, when the ventilation pipe injects gas into the airtight cylinder, the high-pressure gas first blows the driving blades, causing the driving blades to rotate, thereby causing the spiral conveying blades to rotate, and quickly discharging the high-pressure gas into the left chamber, thereby improving the air flowability in the airtight cylinder, improving the heat dissipation effect, and extending the service life of the bearing.
[0014] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention also proposes a method for installing a tailstock spindle sealing structure of a CNC lathe, and the method for installing a tailstock spindle sealing structure of a CNC lathe comprises the following steps:
[0015] Step 1: Install the rotating spindle and the machining spindle into the lathe tailstock and connect them with the power components in the lathe tailstock;
[0016] Step 2: Then fix the sealing seat to the left end of the lathe tailstock by bolts, then insert the airtight cylinder and the throttle valve into the sealing seat and fix them by bolts;
[0017] Step 3: Then put the sealing cover with the sealing ring on the surface of the sealing seat and fix it with bolts;
[0018] Step 4: Finally, connect the ventilation pipe to the connector on the surface of the throttle valve, and fix the ventilation pipe to the pneumatic triplex of the peripheral device.
[0019] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention also proposes a method for using a tailstock spindle sealing structure of a CNC lathe, and the method for using the tailstock spindle sealing structure of a CNC lathe comprises the following steps:
[0020] Step 1: When the machining spindle is working, the pneumatic triplex is set to the sealed pressure value at 0.5MPa, and high-pressure gas is injected through the vent pipe;
[0021] Step 2: The high-pressure gas passes through a throttle valve that can adjust the flow rate of the gas flow, and then is injected into multiple chambers of the same size in the airtight cylinder through the connecting cavity;
[0022] Step 3: When the vent pipe injects gas into the airtight cylinder, the high-pressure gas first blows the driving blade, causing the driving blade to rotate, thereby causing the spiral conveying blade to rotate, and quickly discharge the high-pressure gas into the left chamber;
[0023] Step 4: Finally, the pressure inside the airtight cylinder increases, and at the same time, a small part of the gas is sprayed toward the surface of the machining spindle through the conical groove, flushing the cutting fluid and metal waste close to the surface of the sealing ring, keeping them away from the surface of the sealing ring, and effectively blocking the entry of metal powder, cutting fluid, dust, etc. generated during equipment processing.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] 1. The present invention provides an airtight mechanism, and injects high-pressure gas through a ventilation pipe. The high-pressure gas passes through a throttle valve that can adjust the airflow rate and is injected into the airtight cylinder through a connecting cavity, thereby increasing the pressure inside the airtight cylinder. At the same time, a small portion of the gas passes through a conical groove and is sprayed toward the surface of the machining spindle, thereby flushing the cutting fluid and metal waste close to the surface of the sealing ring and keeping them away from the surface of the sealing ring, thereby effectively blocking the entry of metal powder, cutting fluid, dust, etc. generated during equipment processing.

A clearance groove 12 is arranged in an array on the right end side wall of the sealing cover 7.
[0044] The end array of the sealing ring 8 is provided with a tapered groove 13;
[0045] During operation, in the prior art, when the tailstock spindle rotates at high speed, the barrier effect on cutting fluid and metal powder is not ideal, which causes the cutting fluid and metal powder to easily penetrate into the tailstock spindle, causing the tailstock spindle bearing to be damaged. The specific operation is as follows: first install the rotating spindle 2 and the machining spindle 3 into the lathe tailstock 1, and connect them to the power components in the lathe tailstock 1, and then fix the sealing seat 4 to the left end of the lathe tailstock 1 by bolts, and then insert the airtight tube 5 and the throttle valve 6 into the sealing seat 4 and fix them by bolts, and then put the sealing cover 7 with the sealing ring 8 on the surface of the sealing seat 4 and fix it by bolts, and finally connect the vent pipe 11 to the connector 10 on the surface of the throttle valve 6 respectively, and at the same time, fix the vent pipe 11 to the external pneumatic triplet.

[0056] Step 2: The high-pressure gas passes through the throttle valve 6 which can adjust the air flow rate, and then is injected into the multiple chambers of the same size in the airtight cylinder 5 through the connecting cavity 9;
