TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of numerical control machine tools, in particular to a double-station exchange workbench. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of modern manufacturing technology, in order to improve the processing efficiency, an exchange workbench for reducing clamping time appears. The double-station exchange workbench is an important component to ensure the continuous operation of the equipment. The exchange workbench is generally divided into three parts: an exchange mechanism, a numerical control rotary table for equipment processing, and a manual clamping loading table. The exchange mechanism can rotate 180° under system control to realize the automatic exchange of the two trays of the numerical control rotary table part and the manual loading table part, achieve high exchange accuracy, enable the clamping of workpieces to be processed, the unloading of finished products, and the machining to be synchronized, greatly save auxiliary time, and improve the processing efficiency of the machine tool.
[0003] The action flow of the double-station exchange workbench is "lift up-rotate-lower down", but the current mechanism rotation and lifting and lowering are driven by two sets of mechanisms. For example, in the invention patent with the patent number 201710898869.6 and the patent name "double-station exchange workbench", the rotation mainly uses gear rack, worm gear, etc., and the lifting and lowering is mainly driven by a hydraulic cylinder. Although the accuracy is high, the structure is complex and the structure size is large. At the same time, the current exchange mechanism does not support wiring and air or oil pipes, and the clamping of the workpiece is manual clamps, which cannot apply automatic clamps, greatly increasing the difficulty of clamping.
[0004] Therefore, how to design a double-station exchange workbench with simple structure, small size, and only a single power source to continuously complete the "lift up-rotate-lower down" action is a problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application provides a double-station exchange workbench to solve the technical problem of the existing double-station exchange workbench structure being too complex.
[0006] The technical solution of the present application to solve the above technical problem is as follows: a double-station exchange workbench, comprising: an exchange plate, the exchange plate is fixed with a loading table and a discharging table at intervals, further comprising: a fixed frame arranged below the exchange plate corresponding to the loading table and the discharging table, a power mechanism, a lifting assembly, and a rotating assembly,
[0007] The power mechanism is fixed on the fixed frame and has an output shaft A and an output shaft B perpendicular to the exchange plate on it;
[0008] The lifting assembly comprises a piston rod, a cam and a mover, the top end of the piston rod is fixed on the bottom surface of the exchange plate, the cam is sleeved on the output shaft A, and the mover is arranged on the fixed frame and has a top surface which is inclined upward from the direction away from the cam to the direction close to the cam, the inclined surface of the mover is in sliding contact with the bottom end of the piston rod, and the side surface of the mover is in sliding contact with the outer surface of the cam, so that the mover is periodically and intermittently reciprocated to realize the periodic and intermittent lifting of the exchange plate.
[0009] The rotating assembly comprises a rotating shaft, an intermittent gear C and an intermittent gear D, the rotating shaft is arranged in parallel with the piston rod and has a top end fixed on the bottom surface of the exchange plate, the intermittent gear C is sleeved on the output shaft B, and the intermittent gear D is sleeved on the rotating shaft and is in meshing connection with the intermittent gear C, so that the exchange plate is rotated when the exchange plate is lifted intermittently, and the periodic and intermittent rotation of the exchange plate is realized.

[0011] The lifting action principle of the double-station exchange workbench is described as follows:
[0012] The side surface and the top surface of the mover are respectively in sliding contact with the outer surface of the cam and the bottom end of the piston rod, the top surface of the mover is arranged to be inclined upward from the direction away from the cam to the direction close to the cam, when the cam (the cam is a structure in the prior art, and the outer surface of the cam comprises an outer convex arc surface and an inner concave arc surface) rotates, ① the inner concave arc surface of a part of the cam pushes the mover to slide away from the cam and pushes the piston rod to move upward, ② the outer convex arc surface of the cam maintains the mover at a predetermined position for a period of time (at the same time, the piston rod is at the highest position), and ③ the inner concave arc surface of another part of the cam loses the pushing power on the mover, at this time, the piston rod also loses the pushing power for upward movement, and is affected by the pressure of the exchange plate, the feeding table and the discharging table and its own gravity, so as to push the mover to slide close to the cam, so as to restore the initial position of the mover, and the periodic and intermittent reciprocating movement of the mover is realized, and the periodic and intermittent lifting of the exchange plate is completed.
[0013] The rotating action principle of the double-station exchange workbench is described as follows:
