Secondly, when using mechanical jaws or conical surface matching methods, it is easy to cause micro-displacement of the tool due to vibration, affecting the machining accuracy (the repeat positioning error is often > 0.02 mm). In addition, chips and coolant residues are easily accumulated in the tool clamping area, and manual disassembly and cleaning are required, increasing the shutdown time and posing safety hazards, resulting in difficult cleaning and maintenance.

Detailed implementation manners

[0026] Refer to Figures 1-9, the present invention provides a technical solution: a machining lathe for facilitating tool replacement, including a base 1. The base 1 is respectively installed with a first rotating table 11 and a second rotating table 12. A placing plate 16 is installed on the first rotating table 11. A placing opening 161 is provided on the placing plate 16. A tool 3 is placed on the placing opening 161. A lifting frame 13 is installed on the second rotating table 12. A load seat 14 is provided on the lifting frame 13. A motor 15 is installed on the load seat 14. A fixture 2 is installed at the output end of the motor 15. The tool 3 includes a tool barrel 31. A support ring 35 is provided on the outer wall of the tool barrel 31. A limiting seat 32 with a cross structure is provided at the upper end of the tool barrel 31. An inclined block 34 is rotatably installed on the limiting seat 32 through a torsion spring 33. The fixture 2 includes a top cover 21. A column 22 is installed at the lower end of the top cover 21. A cross cavity 221 is provided in the column 22. A retaining component 26 is provided in the cross cavity 221. A cleaning component 4 is further provided on the guide cylinder 31.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment, the same straight line where the first rotating table 11 and the second rotating table 12 are located is perpendicular to the machining table of the machine tool. That is, when it is necessary to replace the tool, as Figure 1 shown, by controlling the second rotating table 12 to rotate the lifting frame 13 by 180°, the axis of the fixture 2 coincides with the axis of the placing opening 161. By controlling the fixture 2 to move vertically through the lifting frame 13, the fixture 2 can assemble or disassemble the tool 3. By cooperating with the first rotating table 11 to control the rotation of the placing plate 16, the fixture 2 can quickly replace the tool 3 on the placing plate 16, making the replacement more convenient and efficient.

[0028] In this embodiment, a rubber ring is covered on the edge of the placing opening 161. When the tool 3 is separated from and inserted into the placing opening 161, there is a frictional effect between the tool barrel 31 in the tool 3 and the rubber ring, so as to stabilize the placement position of the tool 3 and improve the replacement accuracy and smoothness.

[0029] In this embodiment, combined with Figure 8 shown, a stop surface for restricting the inclined block 34 from rotating in the vertical direction is provided on the limiting seat 32. Among them, the torsion spring 33 has a torsion force that urges the inclined block 34 to rotate in the vertical direction, so that when the retaining component 26 is separated from the tool 3, the torsion spring 33 drives the inclined block 34 to reset.

[0030] In this embodiment, the side surface of each vertical cavity of the cross cavity 221 is attached to the side surface of the inclined block 34. That is to say, the direction of torsion of the cross cavity 221 is restricted by the cavity wall of each vertical cavity of the cross cavity 221. With the pressing of the first roller 2641 and the second roller 2651, the tool 3 is quickly locked.

[0031] In this embodiment, the retention assembly 26 includes a lifting cylinder 1 261 connected to the top cover 21. A cross plate 1 262 is installed at the lower end of the lifting cylinder 1 261. A column rod 263 and a lifting cylinder 2 266 are respectively installed at the center of the cross plate 1 262 and the lower end face of the support plate. A cross plate 2 264 sleeving the column rod 263 is provided at the output end of the lifting cylinder 2 266. A roller 1 2641 is rotatably installed at the outer end of the support plate of the cross plate 2 264. A cross rotating plate 3 265 is installed at the lower end of the column rod 263. A roller 2 2651 is rotatably installed at the outer end of the support plate of the cross plate 3 265.

[0032] In this embodiment, the roller 2 2651 is used to fit the inclined surface of the inclined block 34 and push the inclined block 34 to rotate outwards. The roller 1 2641 is used to press the position at the outer end of the inclined surface of the inclined block 34 to retain the inclined block 34.

[0033] In this embodiment, in combination with Figure 3 As shown, when the cutter 3 enters a certain position in the fixture 2, first, the lifting cylinder 1 261 is used to control the cross plate 1 262 to move downwards. At this time, the column rod 263 moves downwards accordingly. The roller 2 2651 acts on the inclined block 34 to expand outwards. The inclined block 34 gradually adheres to and touches the inclined surface 222. Then, the lifting cylinder 2 266 is used to control the cross plate 2 264 to move downwards, so that the roller 1 2641 strengthens the retention of the inclined block 34 at the outer end position, completing the locking of the cutter 3.

[0034] In this embodiment, an inclined surface 222 is provided at the bottom of the cross cavity 221, and an anti-slip strip 2211 is provided on the inclined surface 222 to improve the locking effect and locking accuracy of the inclined block 34.

[0035] In this embodiment, an anti-slip pad 341 is provided on the outer side surface of the inclined block 34 to further strengthen the locking effect and locking accuracy between the cutter 3 and the fixture 2.

[0036] In this embodiment, a first annular groove 224 and a second annular groove 225 are sequentially provided from the inside to the outside at the lower part of the column body 21. The first annular groove 224 is communicated with the central hole of the column body 21 through a through hole 223. A rotating ring 25 is rotatably installed in the second annular groove 225. A surrounding shell 23 is provided on the outer side of the rotating ring 25. The surrounding shell 23 is fixed on the connecting plate 24. The connecting plate 24 is connected to the load seat 14. A through hole 251 communicating with the first annular groove 224 is provided on the rotating ring 25. A through port 232 communicating with the through hole 251 is provided in the surrounding shell 23. The surrounding shell 23 is also connected with an air duct 231. An annular cavity 311 is provided in the cutter barrel 31. A through hole 312 for communicating with the through hole 223 is provided on the upper side wall of the annular cavity 311.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, a sealing collar is provided at the edge of the through-port 232, and there is a frictional force between the sealing collar and the outer wall of the swivel ring 25, enabling the smooth rotation of the cylinder 21. When gas is introduced into the enclosure 23 through the air duct 231, the gas can successively pass through the cavity of the enclosure 23, the second through-hole 251, the first annular groove 2224, the first through-hole 223, and the third through-hole 312 and flow into the annular cavity 311, and then flow out from the lower end of the annular cavity 311. On the one hand, it can dissipate heat from the processing tool body area in the tool 3, on the other hand, it can blow and clean the area of the processing tool body, and in addition, it can also clean the surface of the processing tool body in real time.

[0038] In this embodiment, the cleaning assembly 4 includes a first breathable disc 41 provided at the upper end of the annular cavity 311. A spring 42 is connected to the lower end of the first breathable disc 41, and a second breathable disc 43 slidably arranged in the annular cavity 311 is connected to the lower end of the spring 42. A fan blade frame 44 is rotatably installed at the lower end of the second breathable disc 43, and a brush rod 45 is installed at the lower end of the fan blade frame 44.

[0039] In this embodiment, when the gas at the upper end of the annular cavity 311 flows out through the first breathable disc 41, the gas impacts the second breathable disc 43 and the fan blade frame 44, causing the fan blade frame 44 to move downward, driving the brush rod 45 to extend out of the annular cavity 311, and at the same time driving the brush rod 45 to rotate circumferentially, thereby further cleaning the surface of the processing tool body, and further enabling the processing tool body to maintain a high cleanliness effect.

[0040] In this embodiment, the brush length of the brush rod 45 is greater than the width of the annular cavity 311.

[0041] In specific implementation, it includes the following steps:

[0042] S1: Adjust the rotation of the lifting frame 13 through the second rotating table 12, and adjust the rotation of the placement disc 16 through the first rotating table 11, so that the fixture 2 without the tool 3 is coaxially aligned with the required tool 13 on the placement disc 16;

[0043] S2: Adjust the fixture 2 without the tool 3 to approach the required tool 13 by a certain position through the lifting frame 13. Adjust the first cross plate 262 to move downward through the first lifting cylinder 261. At this time, the column rod 263 moves downward accordingly, and the second roller 2651 acts on the inclined block 34 to expand outward. The inclined block 34 gradually adheres to and contacts the inclined surface 222. Then, adjust the second cross plate 264 to move downward through the second lifting cylinder 266, so that the first roller 2641 strengthens the fixation of the outer end position of the inclined block 34, and completes the locking of the tool 3;

[0044] S3: Adjust the rotation of the lifting frame 13 through the second rotating table 12 for machine tool processing;

[0045] S4: When replacement is needed, rotate the lifting frame 13 by adjusting the second rotating table 12, and rotate the placement disk 16 by adjusting the first rotating table 11, so that the fixture 2 containing the tool 3 is aligned with the placement opening on the placement disk 16 that does not contain the tool 3;

[0046] S5: Control the second cross plate 264 to move upward by the second lifting cylinder 266, so that the first roller 2641 disengages from the inclined block 34. Control the first cross plate 262 to move upward by the first lifting cylinder 261, and the column rod 263 moves upward accordingly, and the second roller 2651 disengages from the inclined block 34, completing the unlocking and detachment of the tool 3;

[0047] S6: Then perform S1 to complete the replacement of the tool 3, and perform S3.

[0048] As described above, it is only a preferred specific embodiment of the invention, but the protection scope of the invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the invention, according to the technical solution of the invention and its inventive concept, makes equivalent replacements or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the invention.
