Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a power head, and more particularly to a bidirectional lubrication and cooling assembly for a power head. Background Technology

[0002] The power head is a power component that integrates main motion and feed motion functions. It uses a motor-driven gear transmission mechanism to achieve machining such as boring, milling, and drilling. Some models achieve linear motion through guide rails. Some traditional products require interruption of pipeline delivery for bidirectional lubrication and filtration, and are prone to impurity residue in critical locations, resulting in relatively limited effectiveness and a long-term impact on service life. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a bidirectional lubrication and cooling assembly for a power head.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: a bidirectional lubrication and cooling assembly for a power head, comprising a power head, a lubrication pipeline, and a lubrication pump connected to the lubrication pipeline, and further comprising a plunger motor, a filter, and a cooling component. The plunger motor is gear-driven to the power head, and the plunger motor is linked to the lubrication pump. The power head is provided with a housing and a gearbox housing. The lubrication pipeline is provided with at least one spray port connecting the power head and the housing. The filter and the cooling component are connected to the lubrication pipeline.

[0019] like Figures 1-6 The diagram shows a bidirectional lubrication and cooling assembly for a power head, including a power head 1, lubrication lines, and a lubrication pump 11 connected to the lubrication lines. It also includes a plunger motor 3, a filter 5, and a cooling component 7. The plunger motor 3 is gear-driven to the power head 1, and the plunger motor 3 is linked to the lubrication pump 11. The power head 1 is externally housed in a housing and a gearbox housing 10. The lubrication lines have at least one spray nozzle 2 connecting the power head 1 and the housing 10, and an oil pipe connector 6. The filter 5 and the cooling component 7 are connected to the lubrication lines. The plunger motor 3 is a type of hydraulic motor. In this design, the plunger motor 3 provides a fixed and precise transmission ratio for the power head 1, ensuring stable operation, long service life, low maintenance costs, and adaptability to low-speed to high-speed transmission requirements. The spray nozzle 2 leads at least to the housing of the power head 1. The plunger motor 3 is located at the top of the lubrication pump. The filter 5 is located at the bottom of the pre-lubricating oil pump and is configured to connect to the oil outlet of the housing 10 for easy filtration and subsequent connection to the cooler. The cooling component 7 is configured to reduce the temperature of the flowing lubricating fluid. With this design, lubricating oil is sprayed from the spray nozzle 2 onto the rotating bearings and gears inside the power head 1, which can reduce the friction at the rotating parts of the bearings and gears, and also reduce the temperature of the bearings and gears through the lubricating oil.

[0020] The filter 5 is equipped with a filter screen and is connected to the spray port 2 at the housing 10. The filter screen filters the lubricating fluid flowing from inside the housing 10 to prevent impurities from entering the pipeline of the bidirectional lubricating oil pump and causing blockage.

[0021] The cooling component 7 includes a split-flow cooling chamber, which contains several branch pipes. The cold flow cooling chamber is also equipped with a main inlet pipe 8 and a main outlet pipe 9 connecting the branch pipes. The split-flow cooling chamber is also equipped with a cooling fan 14, which is opposite to the branch pipes. The branch pipes divide the large stream of lubricating oil into several smaller streams, while the fan is more efficient in cooling the lubricating oil.

[0022] A distributor is provided between the cooling component 7 and each spray nozzle 2, which can converge the lubricating fluid to equalize the temperature. The housing is provided with a vent to balance the internal and external pressure, which helps to avoid the pressure difference caused by lubricating fluid loss and its resulting effects. The filter 5 is provided with a filter inlet 12 and a filter outlet 13, which will not be described or limited in detail here.

[0023] Lubricating oil is sprayed from spray nozzle 2 onto the bearings and gears of the power head 1. The lubricating oil drips down within the power head 1 and housing 10, eventually converging and flowing through the oil outlet at the bottom of the housing 10 to the filter 5 to remove impurities. It is then pumped to the cooling component 7 for cooling. After cooling, the lubricating oil is sprayed out again through the pipe from spray nozzle 2. The cooled lubricating oil reduces both the friction at the rotating parts of the bearings and gears and lowers their temperature.

[0024] The piston motor 3 and the power head 1 are provided with a transmission transition shaft 4. The transition shaft 4 can serve as a connecting component between the gearbox and the drill rod shaft at the power head 1. The piston motor 3 borrows the rotational power provided by the power head 1 to drive the drill rod, which saves energy and can ensure that it works or stops at the same time as the power head 1.

[0025] The plunger motor 3 is located on the top surface of the lubrication pump 11, the filter 5 is located at the bottom of the lubrication pump 11, and the cooling component 7 is located on the side of the lubrication pump 11. This layout is beneficial for optimizing the spatial structure and is also suitable for structural designs that utilize natural flow, such as pipe connections or cavities. Further elaboration and limitations will not be provided here.
