DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0010] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a high-speed and high-torque main transmission system integrated with precision C-axis feed comprises a motor 1 and a spindle box 2, wherein shaft I, shaft II, shaft III, shaft IV and shaft V are rotatably arranged from bottom to top in the spindle box 2, shaft V is the C-axis, the motor 1 is connected to shaft I through a coupling, a helical gear I3 is fixedly arranged on shaft I, a helical gear III5 and a helical gear II4 meshing with the helical gear I3 are fixedly arranged on shaft II, a helical gear V7, a helical gear VI8 and a helical gear IV6 meshing with the helical gear III5 are fixedly arranged on shaft III, a sliding gear 9 is spline-connected on shaft IV, and the sliding gear 9 can respectively mesh with the helical gear V7 and the helical gear VI8 on shaft III by sliding on shaft IV, a helical gear VII10 is also fixedly arranged on shaft IV, a helical gear VIII11 meshing with the helical gear VII10 is fixedly arranged on shaft V, and a dividing mechanism arranged on the spindle box 2 is also included.

[0011] The indexing mechanism includes a servo motor 12, a reducer 13, a worm wheel 14, a worm 15, a fixed end gear plate 16 and a movable end gear plate 17. The worm wheel 14 and the worm 15 mesh to form a double-lead worm gear transmission pair. The servo motor 12 and the reducer 13 are both arranged on the spindle box 2. The output shaft of the servo motor 12 is connected to the reducer 13. The power output shaft of the reducer 13 is seamlessly connected to the double-lead worm gear mechanism through a coupling, so as to realize the function of low-speed, high-torque and high-precision indexing of the C-axis; the movable end The gear disc 17 is sleeved on the shaft V and connected with the outer circumferential surface of the shaft V by a spline. A cylinder 18 for driving the movable end gear disc 17 to move axially is arranged on the main spindle box 2 and located on the outer side of the movable end gear disc 17. Two thrust ball bearings 20 are sleeved on the outer side of the movable end gear disc 17. The two thrust ball bearings 20 are separated by a convex ring 19 convex inwardly. A guide sleeve 21 is arranged between the output end of the cylinder 18 and the convex ring 19. An end cover 22 is arranged on the box body 1 and an annular groove is formed on one side of the end cover 22. A guide ring 23 is threadedly connected to one side of the end cover 22. The free end of the guide sleeve 21 is located inside the annular groove and slides with the inner wall of the annular groove. The inner wall of the guide sleeve 21 slides with the outer wall of the guide ring 23. The oil cylinder 18 drives the guide sleeve 21 to slide and then drives the convex ring 19 to slide. The fixed sleeve on the shaft V is provided with a bearing. The fixed sleeve of the worm gear 14 is arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the bearing. The fixed end gear disc 16 and the movable end gear disc 17 cooperate for indexing positioning; when the oil cylinder 18 is started to push the movable end gear disc 17 to engage with the fixed end gear disc 16 in place, the first proximity switch sends a signal, the servo motor 12 is started, and the torque is transmitted to the fixed end gear disc 16 through the transmission mechanism, driving the fixed end gear disc 16 to rotate, realizing the C-axis indexing function; the oil cylinder 18 is started to make the movable end gear disc 17 move axially and separate from the fixed end gear disc 16. When the two tooth discs are separated in place, the proximity switch sends a signal, and the C-axis indexing function is disconnected. At this time, the motor 1 can control the rotation of the shaft I to realize the normal operation of the transmission system.

[0012] The sliding gear 9 includes a first bevel gear 901 and a second bevel gear 902 which are integrally connected. The first bevel gear 901 and the second bevel gear 902 are meshed with the bevel gear V7 and the bevel gear VI8 respectively.

[0013] A shift cylinder is provided inside the main spindle box 2, and a shift fork is installed horizontally just above one side of the sliding gear 9. The piston rod end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the shift fork, so that the sliding gear 9 is driven by the hydraulic cylinder to slide axially on the shaft IV to achieve two states: the first bevel gear 901 is meshed with the bevel gear V7 or the second bevel gear 902 is meshed with the bevel gear VI8.

[0014] The fixed end of shaft V adopts a combination of double-row cylindrical roller bearings and bidirectional thrust angular contact ball bearings. A precision circular grating is installed at the tail of shaft V and fixed by a flange sleeve at the tail of shaft V. The contacts of the circular grating are installed on the flange plate behind the spindle box 2. The circular grating is driven by the rotation of shaft V to transmit the position feedback signal of the C-axis feed. That is, when the main drive switches to the C-axis feed movement, a position feedback signal is generated between the circular grating and the servo motor 12 to realize the indexing and positioning functions of the C-axis feed; when the C-axis feed is switched to the main drive, the circular grating only serves as a feedback signal for thread processing.

[0015] The specific operation process of the present invention is as follows: The main motion implementation method is: the motor 1 is powered on and rotates, driving the shaft I to rotate through the coupling, and the shaft II is rotated through the meshing of the bevel gear I3 and the bevel gear II4, and the shaft III is rotated again through the meshing of the bevel gear 5 and the bevel gear 6, and the sliding gear 9 on the shaft IV is driven to slide through the shift fork, and finally the first bevel gear 901 is meshed with the bevel gear V7, or the second bevel gear 902 is meshed with the bevel gear VI8 to drive the shaft IV to rotate, and then the bevel gear VIII 11 on the shaft V is driven to rotate through the bevel gear VII 10 fixedly connected to the shaft IV. At this point, the two-speed stepless speed conversion of the shaft V is realized through the whole transmission system, so that the output speed of the spindle box 2 is switched from 5r / min to 560r / min and the spindle output torque is converted, so as to meet the requirements of processing different parts.

[0016] The actual rotation mode of C-axis feed motion is: the oil cylinder 18 pushes the movable end gear disc 17 to slide, so as to realize the rapid switching of the C-axis feed function and the main transmission system. When the movable end gear disc 17 and the fixed end gear disc 16 are meshed in place, the servo motor 12 is decelerated by the precision reducer 13 and rotates at a normal speed, and transmits torque to the fixed end gear disc 16 through the transmission mechanism, driving the fixed end gear disc 16 to rotate, thereby realizing the C-axis indexing function.
