Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field related to turntable cooling, and in particular to a turntable cooling structure. Background Art

[0002] At present, in order to meet the processing requirements of workpiece features, CNC turntables often increase their rotation speed. However, the increase in turntable speed will increase the temperature of the turntable center structure. The increase in temperature causes a large error in the matching accuracy of the inner shaft of the turntable center rotary joint, thereby affecting the processing accuracy and stability of the turntable.

[0003] The existing turntable has a gap seal between the inner shaft and the rotating outer sleeve through which the working medium circulates to solve the heating problem of the rotary joint. However, the gap seal will cause the working medium of the rotary joint and the cooling medium of the turntable to cross-connect, affecting the stable operation of the turntable. At the same time, it also means that the working medium of the rotary joint must be the same as the cooling medium, usually hydraulic oil. On the one hand, the cooling effect of hydraulic oil is not as good as cooling water. On the other hand, the rotary joint cannot pass other media except hydraulic oil, such as compressed air gas medium. The functional pipeline of the turntable is restricted by the working medium, which is inconvenient to use.

[0004] For example, Chinese patents with publication numbers CN117047554A and CN219005468U disclose a turntable mechanism, a machining center, and a turntable structure with shaft cooling. A cooling circuit is provided to cool the turntable base, turntable table surface, turntable bearings, and other structures, but there is no cooling structure design for the inner shaft of the rotary joint.

The contact seal 109 is located between the upper leakage channel 403 and the top working channel 500. Two contact seals 109 are arranged in the middle of the matching point between the inner shaft 111 and the rotating outer sleeve 112. The two contact seals 109 are located on the upper and lower sides of the middle leakage channel 402. Two contact seals 109 are arranged at the bottom of the matching point between the inner shaft 111 and the rotating outer sleeve 112. The two contact seals 109 are located on the upper and lower sides of the lower leakage channel 401, and the bottommost contact seal 109 is a lip seal, which separates the leakage channel from the cooling channel and the working channel 500 to prevent the working medium in the working channel 500 from colliding with the cooling medium in the cooling channel and the leakage channel.

[0053] The cooling process of this turntable cooling structure is as follows:

[0054] Water inlet: The cooling water enters the cooling water inlet channel 120, and then flows into the first water inlet channel 206 through the cooling water inlet channel 120, and then enters the first water inlet cooling ring 201 to cool the contact surface between the inner shaft 111 and the rotating outer sleeve 112 and the inner shaft 111, and then flows into the second water inlet cooling ring 202 through the second water inlet channel 207 to cool the contact surface between the rotating outer sleeve 112 and the transfer core shaft 103 and the interior of the rotating outer sleeve 112, and then the cooling water flows from the second water inlet cooling ring 202 through the third water inlet channel 208 to the third water inlet cooling ring 203 to cool the contact surface between the transfer core shaft 103 and the center shaft 104 and the interior of the transfer core shaft 103, and then the cooling water enters the fourth water inlet cooling ring 204 from the third water inlet cooling ring 203 through the fourth water inlet channel 205 to cool the contact surface between the center shaft 104 and the turntable bearing 105 and the interior of the center shaft 104.

[0055] Water outlet: Cooling water enters the first water outlet cooling channel 301 from the fourth water inlet cooling channel 204 through the first water outlet passage 306 to cool the contact surface between the central shaft 104 and the turntable bearing 105 and the interior of the central shaft 104. Then, it enters the second water outlet cooling channel 302 from the first water outlet cooling channel 301 through the second water outlet passage 305 to cool the contact surface between the transfer core shaft 103 and the central shaft 104 and the interior of the central shaft 104. Then, the cooling water enters the second water outlet cooling channel 302 through the third water outlet passage 306 to cool the contact surface between the transfer core shaft 103 and the central shaft 104 and the interior of the central shaft 104. 08 enters the third water outlet cooling loop 303 to cool the contact surface between the transfer shaft 103 and the center shaft 104 as well as the interior of the transfer shaft 103, and then enters the fourth water outlet cooling loop 304 from the third water outlet cooling loop 303 through the fourth water outlet passage 309 to cool the contact surface between the rotating outer sleeve 112 and the inner shaft 111 as well as the interior of the rotating outer sleeve 112, and then flows out from the fourth water outlet cooling loop 304 through the inner shaft cooling channel 307 to the cooling water outlet channel 130 to cool the interior of the inner shaft cooling channel 307.

[0056] The cooling water enters the lower leakage channel 401, the middle leakage channel 402 and the upper leakage channel 403 along the leakage pipeline. The cooling water leaked out from the lower leakage channel 401, the middle leakage channel 402 and the upper leakage channel 403 cools the mating surfaces of the inner shaft 111 and the rotating outer sleeve 112 and the contact seal 109, and at the same time takes away the heat generated by the friction of the contact seal 109, thereby maintaining the internal temperature of the turntable stable and improving the processing accuracy.
