Detailed Implementation

[0045] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0046] Please see Figure 1-16 The present invention provides a technical solution: a five-axis linkage machine tool with automatic tool changing, including a machine tool body 1, a tool holder 2 is movably connected to the top of the machine tool body 1, and a number of equally spaced annularly arranged notches are opened on the outer wall of the tool holder 2, a cutting tool 3 is threadedly connected to the inside of the tool holder 2, and a notch with the same structure is opened on the outer wall of the cutting tool 3, and an installation mechanism 4 is provided on one side of the machine tool body 1.

[0047] The mounting mechanism 4 includes a robotic arm 41. The top end of the robotic arm 41 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the machine tool body 1, and the bottom end of the robotic arm 41 is hinged to a mounting cavity 42. A sliding groove 43 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting cavity 42. An upper telescopic rod 44 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting cavity 42. An upper clamping plate 45 is fixedly connected to the front end of the upper telescopic rod 44, and a pneumatic rod 46 is connected to the bottom end of the upper telescopic rod 44. A lower telescopic rod 47 is hinged to the other end of the pneumatic rod 46, and a lower clamping plate 48 is fixedly connected to the front end of the lower telescopic rod 47. The upper clamping plate 45 and the lower clamping plate 48 are arranged on the same axis.

[0048] A control component 49 is provided on the lower clamping plate 48, and a placement component 410 is provided on one side of the robotic arm 41.

[0049] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the control component 49 includes an inner groove 491, which is formed on the upper clamping plate 45. An arc-shaped frame 492 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the inner groove 491. A plurality of inner arc-shaped grooves 493 are formed on the inner wall of the arc-shaped frame 492, and a clamping block 494 is slidably connected to each of the plurality of inner arc-shaped grooves 493. The outer wall of the plurality of clamping blocks 494 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the upper clamping plate 45.

[0050] The bottom end of the arc-shaped frame 492 is provided with an outer arc-shaped groove 495, and a trigger rod 496 is slidably connected to the bottom end of the outer arc-shaped groove 495. A reset chamber 497 is attached to the side wall of the trigger rod 496, and a reset spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the reset chamber 497. The front end of the reset spring is fixedly connected to the side wall of the trigger rod 496.

[0051] The lower clamping plate 48 has the same structure as the upper clamping plate 45. Through the cooperation of the upper clamping plate 45 and the lower clamping plate 48, the installation of the cutter head and the cutter holder 2 can be quickly tightened and unlocked, making it convenient to install and remove the cutter head.

[0052] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the outer diameter of the clamping block 494 matches the inner diameter of the notch, and several clamping blocks 494 are correspondingly arranged with several notches, so that when the cutter head is located between the upper clamping plate 45 and the lower clamping plate 48, the position of the cutter head can be locked by the locking of the clamping block 494, which facilitates the installation and removal of the cutter head.

[0053] In this embodiment, as Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the control component 49 also includes a lower arc groove 498, which is formed on the lower clamping plate 48. The lower arc groove 498 has an inner groove 499 at its end, and an inner groove 499 with the same structure is formed at the center of the lower arc groove. The inner groove 499 has a trapezoidal structure.

[0054] The bottom end of the upper clamping plate 45 is provided with an upper arc groove 4910, and the end of the upper arc groove 4910 is provided with a release groove 4911. The other side of the upper arc groove 4910 is provided with a release groove 4911 of the same structure. The release groove 4911 and the inner groove 499 are staggered. The upper arc groove 4910 and the lower arc groove 498 are distributed in a concentric circle structure. By staggering the upper arc groove 4910 and the lower arc groove 498, the unlocking of the clamping block 494 in the lower arc groove 498 can be delayed when the cutter head is disassembled, which facilitates the movement of the cutter head.

[0055] In this embodiment, as Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the placement component 410 includes a base 411. The bottom end of the base 411 is fixedly connected to the top end of the machine tool body 1. The top end of the base 411 is rotatably connected to a loading tray 412 via a bearing. A compression spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the base 411, and a cleaning tray 413 is fixedly connected to the top end of the compression spring. A cleaning cloth is provided on the outer wall of the cleaning tray 413. Several slots 414 arranged in a circular array are evenly spaced on the top end of the cleaning tray 413. A ball 415 is inserted into the top end of each of the slots 414, and the top end of each of the balls 415 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the cleaning tray 413.

[0056] A trigger post 416 is fixedly connected to the top of the loading tray 412. Several spiral grooves 417 are arranged in a circular array at equal intervals on the outer wall of the trigger post 416. The spiral grooves 417 are connected to each other through vertical grooves 418. The vertical grooves 418 are opened on the outer wall of the trigger post 416. A pressure sleeve 419 is fitted on the outer wall of the trigger post 416. A hydraulic rod 420 is fixedly connected to the top of the pressure sleeve 419. A hydraulic pump 421 is connected to the top of the hydraulic rod 420. The hydraulic pump 421 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the machine tool body 1.

[0057] A spring telescopic rod 422 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the trigger post 416, and the outer diameter of the spring telescopic rod 422 matches the inner diameter of the spiral groove 417 and the vertical groove 418. With the setting of the cleaning disc 413, when the upper loading disc 412 rotates to switch the blade head, it triggers the loading disc 412 to float up and down intermittently to clean the surface of the placed blade head.

[0058] In this embodiment, as Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, the spiral groove 417 and the vertical groove 418 are arranged in a Y-shape. The depth of the spiral groove 417 gradually decreases from left to right, and the depth of the vertical groove 418 gradually decreases from top to bottom. This allows the spring telescopic rod 422 to slide stably in the vertical groove 418 and the spiral groove 417, driving the loading plate 412 to rotate and switch the cutter head.

[0059] In this embodiment, as Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, the placement component 410 also includes a placement groove 423, which is opened on the loading tray 412. Several placement grooves 423 are arranged in a circular array at equal intervals. A rotating disk 424 is inserted into the inner wall of the placement groove 423. A shaft 425 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating disk 424. The shaft 425 has a teardrop-shaped cross-section. A drive gear 426 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the shaft 425. A fixed toothed sleeve 427 is meshed on the side wall of the shaft 425. The fixed toothed sleeve 427 is installed on the base 411.

[0060] A pressing block 428 is attached to the side wall of the shaft 425 and is slidably connected to the loading plate 412. A pressing block 429 is vertically slidably connected to the inner wall of the loading plate 412, and a push plate 430 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the pressing block 429. The other end of the push plate 430 is slidably connected to the side wall of the pressing block 428. A lower pressure plate 431 is attached to the top of the pressing block 429 and the side wall of the lower pressure plate 431 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the pressure sleeve 419. With the setting of the drive gear 426, when the loading plate 412 rotates, it can drive the rotating plate 424 to rotate, so that the material on the rotating plate 424 rotates synchronously, which facilitates the comprehensive cleaning of the blade.

[0061] In this embodiment, as Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, the placement component 410 also includes a left pressure plate 432. The outer wall of the left pressure plate 432 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the rotating disk 424. A moving groove is provided on the outer wall of the left pressure plate 432, and a telescopic plate 433 is inserted into the moving groove. The other end of the telescopic plate 433 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 434. The rotating shaft 434 is rotatably connected to the rotating disk 424. Two telescopic plates 433 are symmetrically arranged about the axis of the rotating shaft 434, and a right pressure plate 435 is inserted into the front end of the other telescopic plate 433.

[0062] A gear 436 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating shaft 434, and a toothed plate 437 meshes on the outer wall of the gear 436. An L-shaped fastener 438 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the toothed plate 437, and the fastener 438 is slidably connected to the rotating disk 424. A telescopic spring rod is provided between the bottom of the toothed plate 437 and the top of the rotating disk 424.

[0063] The toothed plate 437 has an L-shaped structure, and a slanted groove is provided on the outer wall of the toothed plate 437. The slanted groove and the bottom protrusion of the lower clamping plate 48 are matched. The left and right rotation of the lower clamping plate 48 drives the toothed plate 437 to slide left and right. Thus, when the cutter head is released, the rotating disk 424 clamps the cutter head and places it.

[0064] The method of use and advantages of this invention: The working process of this five-axis linkage machine tool with automatic tool change is as follows:

[0065] like Figures 1 to 16 As shown, when it is necessary to replace the tool 3, the operator starts the device, and the mechanical arm 41 moves the mounting cavity 42 toward the tool holder 2. At this time, the upper clamping plate 45 and the lower clamping plate 48 on the mounting cavity 42 will fit against the tool holder 2 and the tool head respectively. Then the air rod 46 is activated. The air rod 46 drives the upper clamping plate 45 and the lower clamping plate 48 to rotate relative to each other through the upper telescopic rod 44 and the lower telescopic rod 47 on both sides. The trigger rod 496 on the upper clamping plate 45 moves from the inner groove 499 into the lower arc groove. In step 498, the trigger rod 496 moves forward and slides on the outer arc groove 495, pushing the arc frame 492 to rotate. As the arc frame 492 rotates, the clamping block 494 slides on the outer wall of the upper clamping plate 45, causing the clamping block 494 to move forward. At this time, the clamping block 494 on the upper clamping plate 45 is engaged in the notch on the outer wall of the tool holder 2. At the same time, the lower clamping plate will move out of the release groove 4911 and engage the clamping block 494 in the notch on the tool head.

[0066] At this time, the pneumatic rod 46 controls the upper clamping plate 45 and the lower clamping plate 48 to rotate continuously relative to each other, unscrewing the cutter head from the cutter handle 2. At this time, due to the misalignment between the release groove 4911 and the inner groove 499, when the upper clamping plate 45 rotates until the cutter head is unscrewed from the cutter handle 2, the trigger rod 496 in the upper clamping plate will move into the inner groove 499 at the other end. At this time, the trigger rod 496 moves backward and pushes the arc frame 492 to rotate in the opposite direction through the outer arc groove 495, thereby pulling the clamping block 494 out of the notch on the cutter handle 2, and disconnecting the upper clamping plate 45 from the cutter handle 2. However, due to the misalignment between the release groove 4911 and the inner groove 499, the trigger rod 496 on the lower clamping plate does not enter the release groove 4911 at this time. The cutter head is stuck between the lower clamping plate 48 and the upper clamping plate 45. At this time, the robotic arm 41 controls the mounting cavity 42 to move down and pull the cutter head away from the cutter handle 2.

[0067] As the cutting head is moved towards the loading plate 412 by the robotic arm 41, it is vertically inserted into the center of the transmission plate, penetrating the loading plate 412. At the same time, the lower clamping plate 48 is placed on the top of the toothed plate 437. Due to the squeezing force of the lower clamping plate 48, the toothed plate 437 pushes the buckle 438 down, and the buckle 438 is no longer in contact with the inner wall of the loading plate 412. At this time, the toothed plate 437 is unlocked. With the continuous movement of the lower clamping plate 48, the trigger rod 496 on the lower clamping plate 48 slides into the release groove 4911, and the clamping block 494 on the lower clamping plate 48 separates from the cutting head, thus unlocking the cutting head.

[0068] Simultaneously, when the lower clamping plate contacts the surface of the toothed plate 437, the protrusion at the bottom of the lower clamping plate 48 will insert into the inclined groove on the surface of the toothed plate 437, so that when the lower clamping plate 48 rotates to unload the cutter head, it can drive the toothed plate 437 to slide to the left. The toothed plate 437 moves to the left, driving the actuating gear 436 to rotate clockwise. The telescopic plate 433 at the front end of the actuating gear 436 will pull the left pressure plate 432 to move to the right, while the telescopic plate 433 at the rear end of the actuating gear 436 can pull the right pressure plate 435 to move to the left, so that the left pressure plate 432 and the right pressure plate 435 slide relative to each other. At the same time, the surfaces of the left pressure plate 432 and the right pressure plate 435 are made of rubber, which allows the cutter head to be clamped.

[0069] Subsequently, the robotic arm 41 moves the mounting cavity 42 upward, separating the upper clamping plate 45 and the lower clamping plate 48 from the old cutter head. At this time, the hydraulic pump 421 is activated, and the hydraulic pump 421 pushes the pressure sleeve 419 downward through the hydraulic rod 420. Since the spiral groove 417 and the vertical groove 418 are arranged in a Y-shape, and the depth of the spiral groove 417 gradually decreases from left to right, and the depth of the vertical groove 418 gradually decreases from top to bottom, the spring telescopic rod 422 on the pressure sleeve 419 slides downward from the deepest end of the spiral groove 417, pushing the trigger pin 416 to rotate the loading plate 412. At this time, the spring telescopic rod 422 will slide into the vertical groove 418. Then, the loading plate 412 will move the next new cutter head above the mounting cavity 42. Then, the mounting cavity 42 is moved downward, and the lower clamping plate 48 is once again aligned with the old cutter head. The toothed plate 437 is connected, and the lower clamping plate 48 is in contact with the side wall of the cutter head. When the lower clamping plate 48 and the upper clamping plate 45 are rotated in the opposite direction, the clamping block 494 on the lower clamping plate 48 will be pushed out and inserted into the cutter head to lock the cutter head. At the same time, the reverse rotation of the lower clamping plate 48 can push the left pressure plate 432 and the right pressure plate 435 to separate through the toothed plate 437, thus separating the cutter head. At this time, the robotic arm 41 moves the locked cutter head to the cutter handle 2 again, moves the cutter head and cutter handle 2 upward to align, and rotates the upper clamping plate 45 and the lower clamping plate 48 again to tighten the cutter head onto the cutter handle 2. At the same time, as mentioned above, due to the setting of the two sets of release grooves 4911 and inner grooves 499, the upper clamping plate 45 and the lower clamping plate 48 can be unlocked at the maximum position when they rotate in both directions, thus completing the entire installation process.

[0070] Meanwhile, as the loading tray 412 rotates, the small ball at the bottom of the loading tray 412 can squeeze the cleaning tray 413 to float up and down, cleaning the front end of the blade installed on the loading tray 412.
