Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electric spindles, in particular to a vertical spindle. BACKGROUND

[0002] The spindle generally needs to replace the tool when machining the workpiece, and generally uses a power cylinder as a driving mechanism to perform the actions of loosening and clamping the tool to realize tool replacement. However, a large amount of cutting heat is generated during the machining process, which reduces the tool life and affects the machining precision. Therefore, the tool needs to be cooled during machining, especially during deep hole machining, and the spindle needs to have a center water outlet function to cool the tool.

[0003] The center water outlet function is generally realized through a rotary joint installed at the rear end of the spindle. However, once the rotary joint is damaged, leakage is likely to occur. The leaked liquid entering the interior of the spindle can cause damage to the motor and rear bearing, increasing maintenance costs. Therefore, the rear end of the spindle needs to be waterproofed to reduce the risk of damage to the motor and rear bearing.

[0004] Patent No. CN 210937157 U provides a waterproof structure of a spindle, which prevents cutting fluid or workpiece debris from entering the interior of the spindle by setting a water blocking ring. However, only the external protection of the front end of the spindle is realized, and the internal protection of the rear end of the spindle cannot be realized.

[0005] Patent No. CN 215521960 U provides a labyrinth seal structure, which realizes the sealing and waterproofing function of the spindle by setting non-contact labyrinth seal structures at the front end and rear end of the spindle through the mutual cooperation of parts, cooperating with the drain, V-shaped sealing ring, and dustproof asbestos, etc. to prevent impurities from entering the spindle during machine operation and prolong the service life of the spindle. However, this structure is mainly used to prevent external water vapor from entering the interior of the spindle under pressure.

[0084] When the loosening process is performed, the oil cylinder cover 2, the oil cylinder 11 and the floating cylinder 3 move integrally upward, the elastic structure 12 provides an elastic thrust downward to the oil cylinder cover 2, so as to reduce the impact force of the second clamping part 31 of the floating cylinder 3 on the first clamping part 51 of the compression ring 5; when the pulling process is performed, the oil cylinder cover 2, the oil cylinder 11 and the floating cylinder 3 move integrally downward, and the second clamping part 31 of the floating cylinder 3 is disengaged from the first clamping part 51 of the compression ring 5.

[0085] The spring cover arranged at the upper end of the oil cylinder cover can limit the upward movement of the oil cylinder cover, and the elastic structure between the spring cover and the oil cylinder cover can provide an elastic force downward to the upward movement of the oil cylinder cover, so as to reduce the impact between the second clamping part of the floating cylinder and the first clamping part of the compression ring during the loosening process of the main shaft, and further reduce the impact of the piston movement on the main shaft, so as to eliminate the movement of the shaft center, further improve the service life of the main shaft, and the oil cylinder cover, the floating cylinder and the oil cylinder move integrally downward during the pulling process of the main shaft, and the distance between the two clamping parts gradually increases.

[0086] As shown in the Figure 1 The oil cylinder cover 2 of the present application is a hollow rotary body with a large upper end and a small lower end, a pipe joint 1 is installed at the large end of the oil cylinder cover 2, and a leakage position 101 is located at the small end of the oil cylinder cover 2, so as to ensure that the cooling liquid can flow downward along the oil cylinder cover 2 when leakage occurs, and does not enter other oil cylinder positions.

[0087] In some embodiments,

[0088] Further comprising a piston 10 arranged at the lower end of the oil cylinder cover 2 and located at the radial inner periphery of the oil cylinder 11, a piston oil inlet channel 201 is formed in the oil cylinder cover 2, which can guide oil into the space between the oil cylinder cover 2 and the piston 10, so as to push the piston 10 to move downward and simultaneously push the oil cylinder cover 2, the oil cylinder 11 and the floating cylinder 3 to move integrally upward when the loosening process is performed;

[0089] The oil cylinder cover 2 is provided with a piston oil inlet channel 201, a piston gas inlet channel 202 and a compression spring mounting hole.

[0091] Compared with the prior art of the floating cylinder, the oil cylinder and the oil cylinder cover body being fixed (the floating cylinder being fixed to the pipeline disc 4), the floating cylinder 3, the oil cylinder 11 and the oil cylinder cover 2 are set as an integrated body that can float up and down, the piston is driven to move downward when oil is introduced, the oil cylinder cover body is driven to move upward in the opposite direction, the impact force between the lower end of the floating cylinder 3 and the compression ring 5 is greatly reduced under the buffering effect of the spring elastic force, and the process is the loosening process; the process of pulling the tool is that gas is introduced, the piston is driven to move upward, the oil cylinder cover body is driven to move downward in the opposite direction (the oil cylinder and the floating cylinder are integrated), and the floating cylinder 3 is separated from the compression ring 5.

[0093] When the piston moves toward the nose end of the main shaft, the floating cylinder, the oil cylinder and the oil cylinder cover body float in the opposite direction of the piston under the action of the compression spring and gravity until the floating cylinder is attached to the rear end locking ring, so as to reduce the impact of the piston movement on the main shaft during the loosening of the main shaft, eliminate the shaft core movement and improve the service life of the main shaft.

[0094] When the main shaft broach, the high pressure gas enters into the gas storage groove of the inner end face of the oil cylinder through the piston inlet channel of the oil cylinder cover body and the oil cylinder, and forms the pressure to push the piston to move away from the nose end of the main shaft (the piston moves upward, the floating cylinder, the oil cylinder and the oil cylinder cover body move downward, and the floating cylinder is separated from the compression ring 5), and the pull rod is separated, and the broaching action is completed.

[0095] When the broach is loosened, the floating cylinder, the oil cylinder, the oil cylinder cover and the like float in the opposite direction of the piston movement under the action of the compression spring and gravity until the floating cylinder 3 is attached to the compression ring 5, so as to reduce the impact of the piston movement on the main shaft (when the broach is loosened, the piston moves downward, the floating cylinder and the like move upward, the compression ring 5 is fixed to the main shaft, and the downward elastic thrust is provided by the spring, so that the floating cylinder and the like are buffered during the upward movement, and the impact force of the floating cylinder 3 on the compression ring 5 is reduced), the shaft core movement is eliminated, and the service life of the main shaft is improved.

[0096] When the broach is loosened, the floating cylinder 3, the oil cylinder 11, the oil cylinder cover 2 and the like float in the opposite direction of the piston movement under the action of the compression spring and gravity (at this time, the piston moves upward, and the floating cylinder 3, the oil cylinder 11 and the oil cylinder cover 2 move downward), until the floating cylinder 3 is separated from the compression ring 5, so that the main shaft can rotate normally.
