DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a lifting beam assembly and a moving beam gantry machining center, which are used to solve the technical problem that the existing beam is easily vibrated or displaced by external force during machining, thereby causing poor machining accuracy and damaging the transmission system.

[0035] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] See also Figures 1 to 4 , a lifting beam assembly provided by an embodiment of the present invention comprises a frame 1, a beam 2 and an auxiliary clamping device 4;

[0037] The two opposite inner sides of the frame 1 are provided with lifting rails 3, and the opposite ends of the crossbeam 2 are slidably connected to the lifting rails 3, and the crossbeam 2 can be driven to rise or fall along the lifting rails 3;

[0038] The auxiliary clamping device 4 is installed on the crossbeam 2 , and when the crossbeam 2 is driven to move to a preset distance, the auxiliary clamping device 4 clamps the lifting guide rail 3 to fix the crossbeam 2 .

[0039] In the lifting beam assembly of this embodiment, the beam 2 can be driven to rise or fall along the lifting guide rail 3 of the frame 1, and an auxiliary clamping device 4 is installed on the beam 2. Through the above design, when the beam 2 moves to a preset distance, the auxiliary clamping device 4 can clamp the lifting guide rail 3 to fix the beam 2, effectively avoiding the displacement or vibration of the beam 2, thereby affecting the processing accuracy and damaging the transmission system.

[0040] Furthermore, in order to improve the clamping effect, the number of the auxiliary clamping devices 4 in this embodiment is multiple, and the multiple auxiliary clamping devices 4 are evenly installed at the opposite ends of the beam 2.

[0041] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the preferred number of auxiliary clamping devices 4 is four. Specifically, two auxiliary clamping devices 4 are installed at the first end of the beam 2, and the other two auxiliary clamping devices 4 are installed at the second end of the beam 2. Through the above design, when the beam 2 stops running, the four auxiliary clamping devices 4 are started at the same time to clamp the lifting guide rail 3, thereby preventing the beam 2 from vibrating or displacing due to external force, ensuring the processing accuracy while ensuring that the transmission system is not damaged.

[0042] Specifically, the auxiliary clamping device 4 in this embodiment includes a hydraulic interface 7, a fixing seat 5, an elastic member 16, a mandrel 12, a pressing plate 6, a lever module 10 and a clamping plate 8;

[0043] The fixing seat 5 is fixedly mounted on the crossbeam 2, and the core shaft 12 is movably mounted inside the fixing seat 5. The core shaft 12 includes a pressing portion 13, an upper shaft portion 14, and a lower shaft portion 15, wherein the upper shaft portion 14 is connected to the top end surface of the pressing portion 13, and the lower shaft portion 15 is connected to the bottom end surface of the pressing portion 13, and the outer side wall of the pressing portion 13 is arranged in close contact with the inner side wall of the fixing seat 5;

[0044] The elastic member 16 is sleeved on the lower shaft portion 15, and one end of the elastic member 16 abuts against the bottom wall of the fixing seat (5), and the other end of the elastic member 16 abuts against the bottom end surface of the pressing portion 13;

[0045] The position between the pressing portion 13 and the top wall of the fixing seat 5 is a hydraulic space, the hydraulic interface 7 is installed on the fixing seat 5 and communicated with the hydraulic space, the hydraulic interface 7 is connected to a hydraulic station, and the hydraulic station transports oil to the hydraulic space through the hydraulic interface 7;

[0046] The upper shaft portion 14 passes through the fixing seat 5 and is connected to a fixing rod 9, the fixing rod 9 is fixedly connected to a first end of the pressing plate 6, and a second end of the pressing plate 6 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 8;

[0047] The lever module 10 is installed on the pressing plate 6 and is located between the first end of the pressing plate 6 and the second end of the pressing plate 6 . The lever module 10 is connected to the crossbeam 2 .

[0048] It should be noted that when the hydraulic station extracts the oil in the hydraulic space through the hydraulic interface 7, the elastic member 16 drives the core shaft 12 to move upward so that the first end of the pressure plate 6 is lifted. When one end of the pressure plate 6 is lifted, the second end of the pressure plate 6 is pressed down through the lever module 10, so that the clamping plate 8 clamps the lifting guide rail 3, thereby fixing the crossbeam 2.

[0049] When the hydraulic station injects oil into the hydraulic space through the hydraulic interface 7, the oil forces the pressing portion 13 of the core shaft 12 to squeeze the elastic member 16. At this time, the core shaft 12 moves toward the bottom of the fixed seat 5, thereby driving the first end of the pressure plate 6 to move downward. When the first end of the pressure plate 6 moves downward, the second end of the pressure plate 6 is driven to rise through the lever module 10, so that the clamping plate 8 is separated from the lifting guide rail 3. At this time, the beam 2 can be driven to continue to move.

[0050] Furthermore, the lever module 10 in this embodiment includes a fixing screw 18, a spherical gasket 19 and a spacer 20;

[0051] A mounting hole is provided on the pressure plate 6, and the mounting hole is located between the first end of the pressure plate 6 and the second end of the pressure plate 6. The fixing screw 18 passes through the mounting hole and is fixedly connected to the crossbeam 2. The spherical gasket 19 is sleeved on the fixing screw 18. The mounting hole is provided with a stepped groove. The spacer sleeve 20 is fixedly provided on the stepped groove of the mounting hole and sleeved on the fixing screw 18. The bottom surface of the spherical gasket 19 is a spherical surface, and the top surface of the spacer sleeve 20 is an arcuate surface matching the spherical surface. The spherical surface and the arcuate surface are arranged to fit each other.

[0052] It should be noted that, through the above design, when the first end of the pressure plate 6 is lifted, the pressure plate 6 squeezes the spherical gasket 19 through the above-mentioned spacer sleeve 20. Since the arc surface of the spacer sleeve 20 cooperates with the spherical gasket 19, the second end of the pressure plate 6 can be pressed downward when the first end of the pressure plate 6 is lifted, so that the clamping plate 8 can clamp the lifting guide rail 3.

[0053] Furthermore, the lever module 10 in this embodiment is preferably disposed close to the second end of the pressing plate 6 .

[0054] It should be noted that, through the above design, the entire pressing plate 6 can be regarded as a force-saving lever, which is conducive to using less force to press the second end of the pressing plate 6 downward.

[0055] Furthermore, the elastic member 16 in this embodiment is a plurality of overlapping butterfly springs.

[0056] It should be noted that the present embodiment does not limit the specific type of the elastic member 16 , and designers can select a suitable type of elastic member 16 according to actual conditions.

[0057] Furthermore, the hydraulic station in this embodiment is also connected to a solenoid valve group, and the hydraulic station is connected to the hydraulic interface 7 through the solenoid valve group. A pressure sensor for detecting oil pressure is installed on the solenoid valve group.

[0058] It should be noted that the solenoid valve group is used to control the on and off of the oil and the flow of the oil. When the hydraulic station transports oil to the hydraulic space through the hydraulic interface 7, if the pressure sensor detects that the oil pressure is insufficient and the clamping plate 8 cannot release the lifting guide rail 3, an alarm device can be set to notify the operator to increase the oil delivery pressure of the hydraulic station.

[0059] Furthermore, the clamping plate 8 in this embodiment is provided with an airtight detection hole 17, and the second end of the pressing plate 6 is provided with an airtight detection pipe 11 connected to the airtight detection hole 17, and the airtight detection pipe 11 is connected to an airtight detection sensor.

[0060] It should be noted that when the clamping plate 8 completely clamps the lifting guide rail 3, there is no gap between the clamping plate 8 and the lifting guide rail 3. At this time, the air-tightness detection sensor detects the air pressure as a normal value. If there is a gap between the clamping plate 8 and the lifting rail when clamped, the air-tightness detection sensor detects an abnormal pressure, which proves that the clamping plate 8 has not completely clamped the lifting guide rail 3. The alarm device can be set to temporarily shut down the machine until the auxiliary clamping device 4 is installed.

[0061] Furthermore, the crossbeam 2 in this embodiment is connected to a lifting drive module;

[0062] The lifting drive module is used to drive the crossbeam 2 to rise or fall.

[0063] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the crossbeam 2 is driven to move by the lifting drive module.

[0064] Specifically, the lifting drive module in this embodiment is an electric cylinder.

[0065] A movable beam gantry machining center provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes the above-mentioned lifting beam assembly.

[0066] In the lifting beam assembly of the moving beam gantry machining center of the present embodiment, the beam 2 can be driven to rise or fall along the lifting guide rail 3 of the frame 1, and an auxiliary clamping device 4 is installed on the beam 2. Through the above design, when the beam 2 moves to a preset distance, the auxiliary clamping device 4 can clamp the lifting guide rail 3 to fix the beam 2, effectively avoiding the displacement or vibration of the beam 2, thereby affecting the machining accuracy and damaging the transmission system.

[0067] The above is a detailed introduction to a lifting beam assembly and a moving beam gantry machining center provided by the present invention. For a person skilled in the art, according to the idea of ​​the embodiments of the present invention, there may be changes in the specific implementation method and the scope of application. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
