Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a machine tool spindle and a front bearing seat of the machine tool spindle. Background Art
[0002] The applicant provides a machine tool spindle in the patent document with application number 202211525780.2, which has a spindle cooling system. The spindle cooling system includes a coolant channel network. The coolant channels in the coolant channel network are distributed in the shell of the spindle body, the front bearing seat and the rear bearing seat and are respectively connected to the machine tool coolant input interface and the machine tool coolant return interface. According to the record in paragraph 0081 of the patent document specification, when the spindle cooling system is working, the coolant first passes through the coolant channel in the front bearing seat, then passes through the coolant channel in the spindle body (the coolant channel in the spindle body has multiple axial channels opened along the axial direction of the spindle body), and finally passes through the coolant channel in the rear bearing seat; that is, the spindle cooling system adopts a "front-middle-rear" cooling scheme.
[0003] After that, the applicant provided a machine tool spindle in the patent document with application number 202311546879.5. In order to improve the cooling effect of the motor stator, which is the main heat source during the operation of the machine tool spindle, the coolant channel in the spindle body was improved. By adding an intermediate sleeve between the inner wall of the spindle body and the outer wall of the motor stator, a coolant flow path covering the outside of the motor stator is formed, which can cool the motor stator more effectively. In addition, according to the description of the patent document, when the spindle cooling system is working, the coolant first passes through the coolant channel in the rear bearing seat, then passes through the coolant channel in the spindle body, and finally passes through the coolant channel in the front bearing seat; that is, the spindle cooling system adopts a "back-middle-front" cooling scheme.
[0004] The inventor found that when the above-mentioned "front-middle-back" cooling scheme is adopted, the coolant first passes through the front bearing seat, at which time the coolant temperature is the lowest and the cooling effect is the best. However, the main heat source when the machine tool spindle is running, that is, the motor stator, has significantly increased in temperature after the coolant cools the spindle body. The cooling effect of cooling the rear bearing seat thereafter is very poor, which easily leads to heat accumulation in the rear bearing seat. When the above-mentioned "back-middle-front" cooling scheme is adopted, that is, the coolant first passes through the rear bearing seat, at which time the cooling effect is the best. After the coolant cools the spindle body, the temperature has significantly increased. The cooling effect of cooling the front bearing seat thereafter is very poor, which easily leads to heat accumulation in the front bearing seat. Summary of the invention

[0040] The above-mentioned machine tool spindle adopts a "back-front-middle" cooling scheme (that is, when the spindle cooling system 7 is working, the coolant flows between the rear bearing seat annular cooling channel 71, the spindle body annular cooling channel 72 and the front bearing seat annular cooling channel 74 in the order of first passing through the rear bearing seat annular cooling channel 71, then passing through the front bearing seat annular cooling channel 74, and finally passing through the spindle body annular cooling channel 72), which effectively solves the shortcomings of the previous two schemes and optimizes the overall cooling effect. First, the rear bearing seat is cooled to avoid heat accumulation in the rear; then the front bearing seat is cooled to ensure the accuracy of the front end of the spindle; because the heat generated by the rear bearing seat and the front bearing seat is much smaller than that of the spindle body, the spindle body 1 (including the motor stator) is cooled last, and a coolant with a moderate temperature can be used for more uniform cooling. This sequence not only balances the heat distribution and improves the thermal gradient, but also optimizes the cooling effect on the main heat source (motor stator). This helps maintain high-precision operation of the spindle through more balanced temperature control, while improving the efficiency of the entire cooling system.
[0041] The annular cooling channel 71 of the rear bearing seat comprises an annular groove on the outer wall of the rear bearing seat which is circumferentially arranged on the outer wall of the rear bearing seat and matches with the inner wall of the main shaft body 1 .
[0042] Among them, the annular cooling channel 72 of the main shaft body can adopt the solution provided by the applicant in the patent document with application number 202311546879.5, that is, the annular cooling channel 72 of the main shaft body includes a plurality of annular grooves of the outer wall of the intermediate sleeve 11 arranged on the outer wall between the inner wall of the main shaft body 1 and the outer wall of the motor stator, which are arranged evenly spaced along the axial direction, and a plurality of convex rings evenly spaced along the axial direction are arranged on the outer wall of the intermediate sleeve, so that an annular groove of the outer wall of the intermediate sleeve is formed between any two adjacent convex rings, and each of the plurality of convex rings is provided with a recess, and the recesses of any two adjacent convex rings are circumferentially spaced apart. The plurality of convex rings are respectively matched with the inner side wall of the main shaft body, and a recess is provided on each of the plurality of convex rings so that any two adjacent annular grooves on the outer side wall of the intermediate sleeves are connected through the corresponding recess; the coolant inlet of the annular cooling channel of the main shaft body is connected with the annular groove on the outer side wall of the intermediate sleeve at the front end of the intermediate sleeve and is 180° different from the recess on the front end of the convex ring of the intermediate sleeve in the circumferential direction; the coolant outlet of the annular cooling channel of the main shaft body is connected with the annular groove on the outer side wall of the intermediate sleeve at the rear end of the intermediate sleeve and is 180° different from the recess on the convex ring at the rear end of the intermediate sleeve in the circumferential direction.
[0043] In another specific embodiment, the spindle body annular cooling channel 72 may include an intermediate sleeve outer wall spiral groove opened on the outer wall of the intermediate sleeve 11 sleeved between the inner wall of the spindle body 1 and the outer wall of the motor stator, the coolant inlet of the spindle body annular cooling channel is arranged at the front end of the spiral groove of the intermediate sleeve outer wall, and the coolant outlet of the spindle body annular cooling channel is arranged at the rear end of the spiral groove of the intermediate sleeve outer wall.

[0045] Specifically, the number of the main shaft body axial flow guide holes can be two and the two main shaft body axial flow guide holes are arranged close to each other. Since the number of the main shaft body axial flow guide holes is small (two), it is helpful to improve the strength of the main shaft body 1.
[0046] Among them, the front bearing seat has a front bearing seat body 41 and a ring part 42 which is cooperatively installed on the inner side surface of the front bearing seat body 41, and the front bearing seat annular cooling channel 74 includes an annular groove 741 on the inner side wall of the front bearing seat body which is circumferentially arranged on the inner side wall of the front bearing seat body 41. In addition, a main shaft body front end mounting flange 43 is provided in the middle area of the outer side surface of the front bearing seat body 41, and a plurality of bolt axial mounting holes are circumferentially distributed on the main shaft body front end mounting flange 43, and the front end of the main shaft body 1 cooperates with the main shaft body front end mounting flange 43 and is connected together by bolts 44 inserted into these bolt axial mounting holes; the front bearing seat annular cooling channel 74 also includes a front bearing seat body outer side wall annular groove 742 circumferentially arranged at a position on the outer side wall of the front bearing seat body 41 that cooperates with the inner side wall of the main shaft body 1; a front bearing seat body internal channel that connects the front bearing seat body inner side wall annular groove 741 with the front bearing seat body outer side wall annular groove 742 is opened in the front bearing seat body 41; the front bearing seat annular cooling channel coolant inlet is arranged on the front bearing seat body inner side wall annular groove 741, and the front bearing seat annular cooling channel coolant outlet is arranged on the front bearing seat body outer side wall annular groove 742.
[0047] The advantages of this design are mainly as follows: First, the annular groove structure of the inner and outer walls of the front bearing seat body 41 (the annular groove 741 on the inner wall of the front bearing seat body and the annular groove 742 on the outer wall of the front bearing seat body) and the internal channel of the front bearing seat body form an efficient cooling circuit, which can fully cover the front bearing seat area to ensure uniform cooling. Secondly, the front end mounting flange 43 of the spindle body and the bolt connection method firmly and reliably fit the front bearing seat body 41 and the spindle body 1 together, and the annular groove 741 on the inner wall of the front bearing seat body and the annular groove 742 on the outer wall of the front bearing seat body are just located on both sides of the front end mounting flange 43 of the spindle body. This makes it easy to pass the front bearing seat annular cooling channel 74 through the channel opened in the spindle body 1 (see Figure 6 ) and transitions to the annular cooling channel 72 of the spindle body. It can be seen that this structural design not only optimizes the cooling effect, but also takes into account the assembly convenience and structural stability.
[0048] Among them, an arc-shaped collecting groove 743 is provided at the bottom of the annular groove 741 on the inner side wall of the front bearing seat body, and two coolant inlet holes arranged in parallel are opened at the bottom of the arc-shaped collecting groove 743, and the two coolant inlet holes respectively form the coolant inlet of the annular cooling channel of the front bearing seat; the spindle body axial guide channel 73 is formed by the spindle body axial guide hole opened in the spindle body 1; the coolant inlet of the spindle body axial guide channel is arranged at the rear end of the spindle body axial guide hole, and the coolant outlet of the spindle body axial guide channel is arranged at the front end of the spindle body axial guide hole; the number of the spindle body axial guide holes is two and the two spindle body axial guide holes are arranged close to each other; the two coolant inlet holes correspond to the two spindle body axial guide holes one by one.
[0049] The arc-shaped collecting groove 743 can effectively collect and distribute the coolant. The design of two parallel coolant inlet holes corresponding to the two spindle body axial guide holes ensures the uniform distribution and flow of the coolant, and then uses the guiding effect of the arc-shaped collecting groove 743 to flow in two different directions to quickly cool the front bearing seat. The number of spindle body axial guide holes is limited to two and they are set close together, which ensures sufficient cooling effect while retaining the structural strength of the spindle body 1 to the maximum extent.
[0050] Among them, the coolant channels distributed in the shell layer of the spindle body in the coolant channel network also include an axial output channel of the spindle body, and the coolant outlet of the spindle body annular cooling channel and the machine tool coolant reflux interface are connected through the axial output channel of the spindle body.
