Description

[0002] In the lathe processing industry and the design of non-standard equipment similar to the lathe, during the ring cutting process of pipe or bar workpieces, the workpiece needs to be clamped first, then rotated, and then the ring cutting function is realized through tool feeding. Among them, the clamping method of the workpiece generally adopts a chuck or a jaw mechanism. The chuck generally drives the workpiece to be clamped by a hydraulic cylinder, and the jaw mechanism generally clamps the workpiece by driving multiple jaws installed in the circumferential direction by a motor. The rotating method drives the entire clamping mechanism to rotate by a motor.
[0003] The above-mentioned two consecutive actions of clamping and rotating are completed by independent driving in the traditional driving method, so two driving devices are needed, such as two driving motors or a driving motor and a driving hydraulic cylinder. This traditional structure has the following defects:
[0004] If the driving structure of the motor and the hydraulic cylinder is adopted, the hydraulic cylinder needs to rotate with the main shaft, so a hydraulic slip ring needs to be used. Long-term use of the hydraulic slip ring will cause problems such as oil leakage and failure. If two motors are used for driving, the internal motor and the cable outside also need to be connected through a slip ring, which will also cause problems such as slip ring wear and tear, poor contact or disconnection. In addition, two driving devices also have the problems of large overall structure, large mass and high failure rate.

[0034] To facilitate the cooperation with the transmission mechanism to achieve the function that the intermediate rotary cylinder 10 cannot rotate relative to the base 1 before the clamping jaw mechanism completes the clamping function and can rotate relative to the base 1 after the clamping jaw mechanism completes the clamping function, the clutch mechanism includes a clutch ring 12, a clutch rod 26 and a second compression spring 23. The circular ring-shaped clutch ring 12 is sleeved on the outside of the intermediate rotary cylinder 10 through the central through hole 52 thereof and is located in the base through hole. A plurality of radial clutch ring through holes (not labeled in the figure) are uniformly arranged on the ring wall of the clutch ring 12 in the circumferential direction. A ball 11 is installed in each of the clutch ring through holes. The outer diameter of the ball 11 is greater than the axial length of the clutch ring through hole.

Radial rotary cylinder blind holes 24 are respectively arranged on the circumferential outer wall of the intermediate rotary cylinder 10 at positions corresponding to the plurality of clutch ring protrusions 25. The plurality of clutch ring protrusions 25 are respectively located in the plurality of rotary cylinder blind holes 24. The plurality of second compression springs 23 are located in the plurality of rotary cylinder blind holes 24. One end of the second compression spring 23 is in contact with one end of the corresponding clutch ring protrusion 25. The other end of the second compression spring 23 is in contact with the end hole wall of the rotary cylinder blind hole 24 away from the transmission ring 19. A plurality of axial rotary cylinder clutch holes 50 are uniformly arranged on the cylinder wall of the intermediate rotary cylinder 10 in the circumferential direction. One end of the plurality of rotary cylinder clutch holes 50 corresponds to and communicates with the plurality of rotary cylinder blind holes 24. The other end of the plurality of rotary cylinder clutch holes 50 extends to the end surface of the intermediate rotary cylinder 10 close to the transmission ring 19 and is open. The plurality of clutch rods 26 are respectively located in the plurality of rotary cylinder clutch holes 50. One end of the plurality of clutch rods 26 is respectively in contact with the other end of the plurality of clutch ring protrusions 25. The other end of the plurality of clutch rods 26 is close to the disc 39 of the transmission ring 19 and can be in contact with the disc 39 of the transmission ring 19.
[0035] In order to facilitate the installation of the rotary drum bearing 9 and the arrangement of the rotary drum blind hole 24, the middle section of the intermediate rotary drum 10 is outwardly convex to form a rotary drum convex ring 30, which is located between the two rotary drum bearings 9, and the plurality of rotary drum blind holes 24 respectively pass through the rotary drum convex ring 30, and the plurality of rotary drum ball grooves 31 are arranged on the outer wall of the rotary drum convex ring 30.
[0036] In order to facilitate the better positioning of the clutch rod 26 and prevent the disc 39 of the transmission ring 19 from moving too far towards the intermediate rotary drum 10, causing the first straight tooth ring 36 of the worm gear assembly 20 to disengage, a circular positioning ring 14 is arranged between the intermediate rotary drum 10 and the transmission ring 19, the positioning ring 14 is sleeved on the outer side of the follower ring 17 and the friction ring 16 through the central through hole, and the positioning ring 14 is connected with the corresponding end of the intermediate rotary drum 10, a plurality of positioning ring through holes (not marked in the figure) are arranged on the ring wall of the positioning ring 14, which are uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction and axially through, and the plurality of clutch rods 26 respectively pass through the plurality of positioning ring through holes.
[0037] Figure 2 It is also shown that the worm 27 passes through the through hole 8 connected with the rotating shaft of the driving motor 5, which is a conventional adaptive structure.
[0038] As Figures 1-10As shown, when in use, one end of a workpiece (not shown in the figure) is first placed in the clamping hole 33 surrounded by the plurality of clamping jaws 3, and then the drive motor 5 is started to rotate the worm 27, which drives the worm gear assembly 20 to rotate, thereby driving the transmission ring 19 and the follower ring 17 to rotate synchronously, achieving no-load start. At the same time, the clutch ring 12 is close to the transmission ring 19 under the elastic force of the second compression spring 23, and the ball 11 is located in the rotary cylinder ball groove 31 and the first base ball groove 7 at the same time and is not located in the second base ball groove 6, so that the intermediate rotary cylinder 10 cannot rotate relative to the base 1 under the action of the ball 11. Under the action of the threaded connection structure between the transmission ring 19 and the hollow main shaft 21, the transmission ring 19 rotates while moving towards the intermediate rotary cylinder 10, and the first compression spring 18 is pressed against the follower ring 17, and the follower ring 17 is pressed against the friction ring 16, achieving a gradual loading process. Finally, when the friction is large enough, the hollow main shaft 21 is driven to rotate synchronously. After the transmission ring 19 rotates for a certain period of time, the disc 39 of the transmission ring 19 pushes the clutch rod 26 to move towards the second compression spring 23 against the elastic force of the second compression spring 23, driving the clutch ring protrusion 25 and the clutch ring 12 to move towards the clamping jaw mechanism, until the ball 11 is located in the second base ball groove 6. At this time, the ball 11 can rotate in the second base ball groove 6, so that the intermediate rotary cylinder 10 can rotate relative to the base 1. At the same time, the hollow main shaft 21 drives the plurality of clamping jaws 3 to rotate around the corresponding pin shaft 29, the clamping hole 33 shrinks and becomes smaller, achieving the clamping function of the workpiece. After clamping, the intermediate rotary cylinder 10 is driven to rotate synchronously by the connection structure between the clamping jaw 3 and the hollow main shaft 21, the connecting screw, the drive screw 4, the drive disc 2 and the pull rod 28, thereby achieving the purpose of rotating the workpiece. Finally, the function of driving the transmission mechanism, the clamping jaw mechanism, the intermediate rotary cylinder 10 and the clutch mechanism to rotate synchronously by the drive motor 5 is achieved.
[0039] After the work is completed, the workpiece needs to be removed. At this time, the drive motor 5 is reversed to rotate. Since the rotary cylinder bearing 9 is a one-way bearing, the intermediate rotary cylinder 10 cannot rotate relative to the base 1 at this time. Correspondingly, the pull rod 28, the drive disc 2, the connecting screw and the drive screw 4 cannot rotate. At this time, the clamping jaw 3 can rotate in the opposite direction around the corresponding pin shaft 29, so that the clamping hole 33 increases and the workpiece is loosened, and the workpiece can be removed. At the same time, under the action of the threaded connection structure between the transmission ring 19 and the hollow main shaft 21, the transmission ring 19 rotates in the opposite direction while moving away from the intermediate rotary cylinder 10, loosening the compression of the follower ring 17 and the friction ring 16, achieving a gradual unloading process. Finally, when the friction is small enough, the hollow main shaft 21 is separated from the transmission ring 19, and the hollow main shaft 21 stops rotating, and the entire mechanism returns to its original state.
[0040] The above embodiments are only the preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the technical solutions of the present application, and any technical solutions that can be realized on the basis of the above embodiments without creative labor shall be considered to fall within the protection scope of the present application patent.
