[0002] In the modern manufacturing industry, five-axis CNC machine tools have become the core equipment in the field of precision machining due to their high precision, high efficiency and multifunctionality. Through the linkage of five axes, five-axis CNC machine tools can achieve precise machining of complex curved surfaces and spatial structures, improving machining efficiency and product quality. As an important component of five-axis machine tools, the design and performance of the bidirectional swivel head directly affect the overall machining capacity and precision of the machine tool. After searching, the Chinese patent with announcement number CN115476178B provides a double-swing head type five-axis CNC machine tool, which drives the one-way rotating shaft to rotate counterclockwise by rotating the rotating rod on the left side counterclockwise, thereby driving the winding strip on the left side to reel in. The winding strip uses the side rod to drive the front side slide and the other side rod to move synchronously, so that when the front side slide approaches the platform, the front side center rod drives the front side pressure plate to move synchronously. When the front side pressure plate and the other pressure plate are in contact with each other, the outer end of the front side fixing piece moves to the bottom of the placement frame to facilitate the processing head to add, thereby realizing comprehensive processing of the two fixing pieces and improving the processing efficiency of the CNC machine tool; However, it was found during use that in the high-speed, high-precision machining process, the accumulation of tiny errors when the oscillating head stops rotating can easily lead to reduced machining accuracy, thereby affecting the quality of the product.

[0021] Through the above technical solution, the air entering the machine tool is ensured to be dry and clean, preventing water vapor, cutting fluid and other liquids from damaging the machine tool.
[0022] Beneficial effects of the present invention: 1. The push block moves downward and the spring drives the movable block and the latching teeth to move downward until the spring is compressed, so that the latching teeth on one of the movable blocks engage with the first gear, and the slide bar slides along the push block, so that the bottom surfaces of the latching teeth of the remaining movable blocks abut against the outer wall of the first gear, which facilitates the rotation of the first gear to different positions and angles for tight engagement, reduces the error accumulation after the connecting shaft stops rotating, ensures the quality of the product, enhances the stability of the A-axis swing head, and makes it less likely to vibrate or deflect when it is subjected to various forces and torques from the workpiece and the tool, thereby further improving the processing effect.
[0023] 2. The output shaft of the cylinder moves downward to drive the push block to move, and then drives the movable block and the latch gear to move downward. Due to the elastic force of the spring, one of the movable blocks and the latch gear engages with the tooth groove of the first gear during the downward movement. Since the latch teeth on adjacent movable blocks are staggered, they can adapt to first gears at different angles to achieve tight engagement, reducing error accumulation after the connecting shaft stops rotating. At the same time, due to the stable driving force provided by the cylinder and the elastic force of the spring, the overall stability of the locking assembly is enhanced, reducing the vibration or offset of the A-axis swing head when it is subjected to various forces and torques from the workpiece and the tool.
[0024] 3. The lubricating oil of appropriate capacity is delivered to the oil chamber through the oil inlet pipe, which ensures that the second gear, the third gear and the reduction gear work under good lubrication conditions, reduces wear and heat, and extends the service life of the components; when it is necessary to replace the lubricating oil or clean the oil chamber, the oil drain pipe is opened through the electric valve, and the old oil or impurities are discharged from the oil drain pipe to the outside. The one-way pressure relief valve is used to automatically release the pressure when the pressure inside the oil chamber is too high, thereby protecting the oil chamber and related components from damage and preventing component damage or safety accidents caused by excessive pressure.
[0025] 4. The cutting fluid is transported to the inside of the liquid inlet pipe through an external device. When the cutting fluid enters the metal heat conductive block through the liquid inlet pipe, the metal heat conductive block absorbs part of the heat generated when the dual-axis motor is in use. The cooling liquid is transported to the second heat conductive pipe and the third heat conductive pipe through the first heat conductive pipe and enters the oil chamber. At this time, the first heat conductive pipe, the second heat conductive pipe and the third heat conductive pipe respectively exchange heat with the lubricating oil in the oil chamber, thereby reducing the temperature of the lubricating oil. In this process, the lubricating oil absorbs and takes away the heat generated during the operation of the gears, thereby reducing the temperature rise of the components and the slight deformation caused by high temperature, thereby improving the processing effect. After the heat exchange, the cooling fluid enters the hollow distribution ring and the shunt pipe through the delivery pipe. The cooling liquid is sprayed from the water outlet of the liquid distribution block to the working area of the tool, thereby achieving effective cooling of the tool and the workpiece. The flowing cutting fluid not only improves the efficiency and effect of heat exchange, but also ensures the continuous and efficient operation of the entire cooling system, thereby extending the service life of the machine tool.
[0026] 5. The external fresh air is filtered and separated by the filter block and the waterproof breathable membrane through the fan, and then sent into the hollow connecting block. When the air flows inside the hollow connecting block, it takes away part of the heat generated by the dual-axis motor. The air enters the second shell through the air supply pipe and the spring tube, and further dissipates the heat of the drive motor and the tool working area. The heat-dissipated air is discharged to the outside through the air outlet pipe on the bottom of the second shell, ensuring that too much heat will not accumulate inside the hollow connecting block and the second shell, reducing the temperature of the C-axis swing head and the A-axis swing head during operation, and improving the stability and service life of the machine tool; the setting of the filter block and the waterproof breathable membrane ensures that the air entering the machine tool is dry and clean, and prevents water vapor and liquids such as cutting fluid from damaging the machine tool; the spring tube allows the air to enter the second shell more smoothly for heat dissipation, thereby improving the use effect of the second shell when it is rotated to different angles.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0029] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Embodiment 1
[0030] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, the present embodiment provides a bidirectional swivel head for a five-axis linkage CNC machine tool, including a C-axis swivel head 1 and an A-axis swivel head 2. The C-axis swivel head 1 is provided with a C-axis drive system 3. The C-axis swivel head 1 is provided with a hollow connection block 4. Both ends of the hollow connection block 4 are respectively fixed with a first shell 5. The A-axis swivel head 2 is provided with a second shell 6. The outer wall of the second shell 6 slides with the inner wall of the first shell 5 respectively. The first shell 5 is rotatably connected with a connecting shaft 7. A first gear 8 is sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of one end of the connecting shaft 7. The upper end of the first gear 8 is clamped with a The locking assembly 9 includes a push block 901, on which a plurality of slide rods 902 are slidably connected, a round block 903 is fixedly provided on the top surface of the slide rod 902, a spring 904 is sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the lower end of the slide rod 902, a plurality of movable blocks 905 are fixedly provided on the bottom surface of the push block 901, a plurality of latch teeth 906 are fixedly provided on the bottom surface of the movable block 905, the bottom surface of the slide rod 902 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the movable block 905, the latch teeth 906 are latched in cooperation with the first gear 8, and the latch teeth 906 on adjacent movable blocks 905 are staggered.
[0031] Triangular blocks 907 are fixed at both ends of the movable block 905, and the outer wall of the triangular block 907 and the outer walls at both ends of the push block 901 are respectively slidably connected to the inner wall of the first shell 5, the top surface of the spring 904 abuts against the bottom surface of the push block 901, and the bottom surface of the spring 904 abuts against the top surface of the movable block 905. A cylinder 908 is installed on the top surface of the first shell 5 through a mounting seat, and the piston rod of the cylinder 908 extends through the first shell 5 to the inside, and the outer peripheral wall of the piston rod of the cylinder 908 is slidably connected to the first shell 5, and the bottom surface of the output shaft of the cylinder 908 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the push block 901; the stable driving force provided by the cylinder 908 and the elastic force of the spring 904 enhance the overall stability of the locking assembly 9.
[0032] When in use, after adjusting the C-axis swing head 1 and the A-axis swing head 2 to rotate to a suitable use angle along the C-axis through the C-axis drive system 3, the A-axis swing head 2 is driven to rotate to a suitable angle through the C-axis swing head 1, and the push block 901 moves downward and drives the movable block 905 and the latching tooth 906 to move downward through the spring 904 until the spring 904 is compressed, so that the latching tooth 906 on one of the movable blocks 905 is engaged with the first gear 8; The slide bar 902 slides along the push block 901, so that the bottom surface of the latching teeth 906 of the remaining movable blocks 905 abuts against the outer wall of the first gear 8, which facilitates the tight latching of the first gear 8 to rotate to different positions and angles, reduces the error accumulation after the connecting shaft 7 stops rotating, improves the processing effect, ensures the quality of the product, and enhances the stability of the A-axis swing head 2, so that when it is subjected to various forces and torques from the workpiece and the tool, the A-axis swing head 2 is not prone to vibration or deviation, further improving the processing effect; When it is necessary to lock the A-axis swing head 2, the output shaft of the cylinder 908 moves downward to drive the push block 901 to move, and then drives the movable block 905 and the latching tooth 906 to move downward. Due to the elastic force of the spring 904, one of the movable blocks 905 and the latching tooth 906 engages with the tooth groove of the first gear 8 during the downward movement. Since the latching teeth 906 on the adjacent movable blocks 905 are staggered, they can adapt to the first gears 8 at different angles to achieve tight engagement, reducing the error accumulation after the connecting shaft 7 stops rotating. At the same time, due to the stable driving force provided by the cylinder 908 and the elastic force of the spring 904, the overall stability of the locking assembly 9 is enhanced, and the vibration or deviation phenomenon of the A-axis swing head 2 when subjected to various forces and torques from the workpiece and the tool is reduced. When the lock needs to be released, the cylinder 908 is used to retract its piston rod upward, and the piston rod of the cylinder 908 drives the push block 901 to move upward, causing the slide bar 902 to slide along the push block 901, and the bottom surface of the round block 903 is in friction contact with the top surface of the push block 901, thereby driving the movable block 905 and the latch tooth 906 to move upward, so that the latch tooth 906 engaged with the first gear 8 is disengaged. At this time, the A-axis swing head 2 is re-rotated and adjusted through the C-axis swing head 1, which is more flexible and convenient to use. Embodiment 2

The inner wall of the hollow connecting block 4 is symmetrically installed with two metal heat-conducting blocks 2102, and the metal heat-conducting blocks 2102 are hollow in structure. The inner wall of the metal heat-conducting block 2102 contacts the outer wall of the dual-axis motor 10, and one end of the liquid inlet pipe 2101 passes through the hollow connecting block 4 and is connected to one of the metal heat-conducting blocks 2102, and the two metal heat-conducting blocks 2102 are connected via a connecting pipe 2103; when the liquid enters the metal heat-conducting block 2102 through the liquid inlet pipe 2101, the metal heat-conducting block 2102 absorbs part of the heat generated when the dual-axis motor 10 is in use.
[0037] One of the metal heat-conducting blocks 2102 is connected to a first heat-conducting pipe 2104, which passes through the first shell 5 and extends to the inside. The other end of the first heat-conducting pipe 2104 is connected to a second heat-conducting pipe 2105, which is circuitous and located inside the oil chamber 17.

[0039] During cooling, the cutting fluid is first transported to the inside of the liquid inlet pipe 2101 through an external device. When entering the metal heat-conducting block 2102 through the liquid inlet pipe 2101, the metal heat-conducting block 2102 absorbs part of the heat generated when the dual-axis motor 10 is in use. The cooling liquid is transported to the second heat-conducting pipe 2105 and the third heat-conducting pipe 2106 through the first heat-conducting pipe 2104 and enters the inside of the oil chamber 17. At this time, the first heat-conducting pipe 2104, the second heat-conducting pipe 2105 and the third heat-conducting pipe 2106 respectively exchange heat with the lubricating oil in the oil chamber 17, thereby reducing the temperature of the lubricating oil. In this process, the lubricating oil absorbs and takes away the heat generated during the operation of the gears, thereby reducing the temperature rise of the components and the slight deformation caused by high temperature, thereby improving the processing effect. After heat exchange, the coolant enters the hollow distribution ring 27 and the diversion pipe 26 through the delivery pipe 2107, and the cooling liquid is sprayed from the water outlet 25 of the liquid distribution block 23 to the working area of the tool 24, thereby achieving effective cooling of the tool 24 and the workpiece. The flowing cutting fluid not only improves the efficiency and effect of heat exchange, but also ensures the continuous and efficient operation of the entire cooling system, thereby extending the service life of the machine tool. Embodiment 4
[0040] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, this embodiment is based on the previous embodiment, and differs from the previous embodiment in that a heat dissipation component 28 is provided on the hollow connecting block 4, and the heat dissipation component 28 includes a fan 2801, and the fan 2801 is installed on the rear wall of the hollow connecting block 4 through a mounting seat, and the air inlet end of the fan 2801 is connected with an air inlet pipe 2802, and the output end of the fan 2801 extends through the hollow connecting block 4 to the inside, and the hollow connecting block 4 is connected with an air supply pipe 2803, and a spring tube 2804 is fixed in the middle of the air supply pipe 2803, and the other end of the air supply pipe 2803 is connected to the inside of the second shell 6; it ensures that excessive heat will not accumulate inside the hollow connecting block 4 and the second shell 6, and reduces the temperature of the C-axis swing head 1 and the A-axis swing head 2 during operation.
[0041] The bottom surface of the second shell 6 is connected to an air outlet pipe 2805, and the air inlet pipe 2802 is fixed on the outer wall of the hollow connecting block 4. A plurality of slots 2806 are provided on the side wall of the air inlet pipe 2802. Filter blocks 2807 are inserted into the slots 2806, and a waterproof and breathable membrane 2808 is installed on the rear wall of the filter block 2807. This ensures that the air entering the machine tool is dry and clean, and prevents water vapor, cutting fluid and other liquids from damaging the machine tool.
[0042] During heat dissipation, the fan 2801 filters and blocks the external fresh air through the filter block 2807 and the waterproof breathable membrane 2808, and then sends it into the hollow connection block 4. When the air flows in the hollow connection block 4, it takes away part of the heat generated by the dual-axis motor 10. The air enters the second shell 6 through the air supply pipe 2803 and the spring tube 2804, and further dissipates the heat of the drive motor 22 and the working area of the tool 24. The air after heat dissipation is discharged to the outside through the air outlet pipe 2805 on the bottom surface of the second shell 6, ensuring that too much heat will not accumulate in the hollow connection block 4 and the second shell 6, reducing the temperature of the C-axis swing head 1 and the A-axis swing head 2 during operation, and improving the stability and service life of the machine tool; The provision of the filter block 2807 and the waterproof breathable membrane 2808 ensures that the air entering the interior of the machine tool is dry and clean, preventing water vapor, cutting fluid and other liquids from damaging the machine tool; the spring tube 2804 allows air to more smoothly enter the interior of the second shell 6 for heat dissipation, thereby improving the use effect of the second shell 6 when it is rotated to different angles.
[0043] Working principle: When in use, after adjusting the C-axis swing head 1 and the A-axis swing head 2 to rotate to a suitable use angle along the C-axis through the C-axis drive system 3, the A-axis swing head 2 is driven to rotate to a suitable angle through the C-axis swing head 1, and the push block 901 moves downward and drives the movable block 905 and the latching tooth 906 to move downward through the spring 904 until the spring 904 is compressed, so that the latching tooth 906 on one of the movable blocks 905 is engaged with the first gear 8; The slide bar 902 slides along the push block 901, so that the bottom surface of the latching teeth 906 of the remaining movable blocks 905 abuts against the outer wall of the first gear 8, which facilitates the tight latching of the first gear 8 to rotate to different positions and angles, reduces the error accumulation after the connecting shaft 7 stops rotating, improves the processing effect, ensures the quality of the product, and enhances the stability of the A-axis swing head 2, so that when it is subjected to various forces and torques from the workpiece and the tool, the A-axis swing head 2 is not prone to vibration or deviation, further improving the processing effect; When it is necessary to lock the A-axis swing head 2, the output shaft of the cylinder 908 moves downward to drive the push block 901 to move, and then drives the movable block 905 and the latching tooth 906 to move downward. Due to the elastic force of the spring 904, one of the movable blocks 905 and the latching tooth 906 engages with the tooth groove of the first gear 8 during the downward movement. Since the latching teeth 906 on the adjacent movable blocks 905 are staggered, they can adapt to the first gears 8 at different angles to achieve tight engagement, reducing the error accumulation after the connecting shaft 7 stops rotating. At the same time, due to the stable driving force provided by the cylinder 908 and the elastic force of the spring 904, the overall stability of the locking assembly 9 is enhanced, and the vibration or deviation phenomenon of the A-axis swing head 2 when subjected to various forces and torques from the workpiece and the tool is reduced. When the lock needs to be released, the cylinder 908 is used to retract its piston rod upward, and the piston rod of the cylinder 908 drives the push block 901 to move upward, causing the slide bar 902 to slide along the push block 901, and the bottom surface of the round block 903 is in friction contact with the top surface of the push block 901, thereby driving the movable block 905 and the latch tooth 906 to move upward, so that the latch tooth 906 engaged with the first gear 8 is disengaged. At this time, the A-axis swing head 2 is re-rotated and adjusted through the C-axis swing head 1, which is more flexible and convenient to use.
[0044] When in use, the output shafts of the dual-axis motor 10 respectively drive the two first rotating shafts 11 to drive the second gear 12 to rotate, so that the second gear 12 is meshed and transmitted to the third gear 13 to rotate, so that the connecting shaft 7 rotates to drive the first gear 8 to rotate, and the third gear 13 is meshed and transmitted to the reduction gear 14 to rotate the rotating shaft 15, and the rotating shaft 15 drives the second housing 6 to rotate, so that it is convenient to adjust the A-axis swing head 2 to a suitable angle. After the adjustment is completed, the first gear 8 is locked by the locking assembly 9, and the second housing 6 is further locked by the second gear 12, the third gear 13 and the reduction gear 14, thereby improving the stability of the A-axis swing head 2 after it stops rotating; Before use, a suitable amount of lubricating oil is delivered to the oil chamber 17 through the oil inlet pipe 18, which ensures that the second gear 12, the third gear 13 and the reduction gear 14 work under good lubrication conditions, reduces wear and heat, and prolongs the service life of the components; When it is necessary to replace the lubricating oil or clean the oil chamber 17, the oil drain pipe 19 is opened through the electric valve, and the old oil or impurities are discharged to the outside from the oil drain pipe 19. The one-way pressure relief valve 20 automatically opens to release the pressure when the internal pressure of the oil chamber 17 is too high, thereby protecting the oil chamber 17 and related components from damage and preventing component damage or safety accidents caused by excessive pressure.
[0045] During cooling, the cutting fluid is first transported to the inside of the liquid inlet pipe 2101 through an external device. When entering the metal heat-conducting block 2102 through the liquid inlet pipe 2101, the metal heat-conducting block 2102 absorbs part of the heat generated when the dual-axis motor 10 is in use. The cooling liquid is transported to the second heat-conducting pipe 2105 and the third heat-conducting pipe 2106 through the first heat-conducting pipe 2104 and enters the inside of the oil chamber 17. At this time, the first heat-conducting pipe 2104, the second heat-conducting pipe 2105 and the third heat-conducting pipe 2106 respectively exchange heat with the lubricating oil in the oil chamber 17, thereby reducing the temperature of the lubricating oil. In this process, the lubricating oil absorbs and takes away the heat generated during the operation of the gears, thereby reducing the temperature rise of the components and the slight deformation caused by high temperature, thereby improving the processing effect. After heat exchange, the coolant enters the hollow distribution ring 27 and the diversion pipe 26 through the delivery pipe 2107, and the cooling liquid is sprayed from the water outlet 25 of the liquid distribution block 23 to the working area of the tool 24, thereby achieving effective cooling of the tool 24 and the workpiece. The flowing cutting fluid not only improves the efficiency and effect of heat exchange, but also ensures the continuous and efficient operation of the entire cooling system, thereby extending the service life of the machine tool.
[0046] During heat dissipation, the fan 2801 filters and blocks the external fresh air through the filter block 2807 and the waterproof breathable membrane 2808, and then sends it into the hollow connection block 4. When the air flows in the hollow connection block 4, it takes away part of the heat generated by the dual-axis motor 10. The air enters the second shell 6 through the air supply pipe 2803 and the spring tube 2804, and further dissipates the heat of the drive motor 22 and the working area of the tool 24. The air after heat dissipation is discharged to the outside through the air outlet pipe 2805 on the bottom surface of the second shell 6, ensuring that too much heat will not accumulate in the hollow connection block 4 and the second shell 6, reducing the temperature of the C-axis swing head 1 and the A-axis swing head 2 during operation, and improving the stability and service life of the machine tool; The provision of the filter block 2807 and the waterproof breathable membrane 2808 ensures that the air entering the interior of the machine tool is dry and clean, preventing water vapor, cutting fluid and other liquids from damaging the machine tool; the spring tube 2804 allows air to more smoothly enter the interior of the second shell 6 for heat dissipation, thereby improving the use effect of the second shell 6 when it is rotated to different angles.
