Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of metal cutting machine tool manufacturing technology, and in particular to a rapid configuration method for tap machining change gears in metal cutting machine tools. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of metal cutting machine tool manufacturing, taps, as high-precision thread-cutting tools, rely heavily on the machining accuracy of specialized metal cutting machine tools such as thread grinders and spade grinders for their manufacturing quality. One of the core functional chains of these machine tools is the precise transmission of the spindle's rotational motion to the workpiece's feed or indexing mechanism via a set of interchangeable gears called "gear trains." The accuracy of the gear train configuration directly determines key performance indicators such as the pitch accuracy and tooth profile quality of the machined tap, making it a crucial link in the metal cutting machine tool manufacturing process to ensure the precision of the final product.

[0003] Currently, in metal cutting machine tool processing areas, the allocation of gear ratios mainly relies on traditional manual calculation and table lookup methods. Although the theoretical transmission ratio can be calculated based on the transmission formulas of different machine tools and processes, this ratio is usually a multi-decimal number. Operators need to repeatedly compare this decimal with over a million integer ratios in the "General Ratio Gear Ratio Table." While the "General Ratio Gear Ratio Table" provides highly accurate approximate values, the calculated gear ratio combinations often cannot be practically installed due to limitations in the physical space of the machine tool. This method, which is highly dependent on personal experience, time-consuming, and uncertain, results in excessively long adjustment times when switching between processing products on metal cutting machine tools, hindering rapid response.

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a rapid configuration method for tapping gears used in metal cutting machine tools. Summary of the Invention

[0022] As a preferred embodiment of the rapid configuration method for tap machining change gears described in this invention, in step S500, all change gear combinations that meet the judgment conditions of step S400 are sorted and displayed in ascending order of actual error value.

[0032] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0033] The terminology used in this invention is that which is currently widely used in the art in consideration of the function of the invention; however, these terms may vary according to the intent of those skilled in the art, precedent, or new technology in the art. Furthermore, specific terms may be chosen by the applicant, and in such cases, their detailed meanings will be described in the detailed description of the invention. Therefore, the terms used in this specification should not be construed as simple names, but rather based on their meanings and the overall description of the invention.

[0034] Example 1, referring to Figure 1 The first embodiment of the present invention provides a rapid configuration method for tapping gears on metal cutting machine tools, comprising the following steps:

[0035] S100: Select a calculation program based on the target model of the spiral groove tap to calculate the milling or differential gear. The calculation program is designed to meet the requirements of the target model of the spiral groove tap.

[0036] S200: Input the tap design process parameters and allowable error of the target model spiral flute tap, and calculate the target transmission ratio;

[0037] S300: Based on the target transmission ratio and allowable error, a cyclic matching calculation is performed on all gear teeth in the dedicated gear combination database. The cyclic matching calculation adopts an exhaustive method, calculating different gear combinations sequentially. The actual transmission ratio, where A, B, C, and D are the number of teeth on the gear;

[0038] S400: Compare the actual transmission ratio with the target transmission ratio and determine whether the absolute value of the difference is less than or equal to the allowable error;

[0039] S500: Output all combinations of pulleys that satisfy the judgment condition in step S400. And its corresponding actual error value.

[0040] Firstly, a dedicated differential gear calculation program is selected based on the specific spiral groove tap machining equipment. This ensures the method's relevance. The calculations cover various spiral groove tap models, including Y750W thread grinder differential, X62W milling machine differential, C8955 shovel differential, 5K82 thread grinder differential, and Y725G thread grinder differential. Furthermore, different gear combination data and target transmission ratio calculation logics are used in the differential gear calculations for different spiral groove tap models. For example, the calculation formulas for several transmission ratios are as follows:

[0041] The formula for calculating the transmission ratio of the Y750W spiral flute tap is: i = 180 × P / L

[0042] Formula for spiral groove taps on X62W milling machines: i=240 / L

[0043] C8955 Grinding Differential Formula: i = 76.2 × Z / L

[0044] 5K82 thread wear differential formula: i=Z×(1±P / L) / 12

[0045] Y725G thread wear differential formula: i = (1 − P / L) × Z / 2.5

[0046] Where Z is the number of tap teeth; P is the tap pitch; and L is the tap lead.

[0047] The operator inputs specific tap design process parameters (such as pitch, lead, etc.) and allowable error range, and the system automatically calculates the target transmission ratio based on different transmission ratio calculation formulas. Clicking "Calculate" uses an exhaustive method to perform cyclical ratio calculations on all tooth counts in the gear combination database. This process is used to determine all possible actual transmission ratios. Finally, by comparing the actual transmission ratios with the target transmission ratio, all gear combinations with errors within the allowable range are selected, and the results are output.

[0048] In practice, engineers first select the "Y750W Thread Grinding Differential" calculation module from the program list on a computer or handheld terminal equipped with the dedicated software. Then, they input the tap's design process parameters in the input interface: nominal diameter 14mm, tap pitch 1.25mm, number of tap teeth 4, and tap lead 78mm, setting the allowable error to ±0.00001mm. The calculation program automatically calculates the target transmission ratio as 9.23076923076923. After clicking "Calculate," the software then launches its calculation engine. It iterates through all possible four-wheel combinations (e.g., A=54, B=30, C=120, D=30; A=63, B=30, C=120, D=35…) from the built-in Y750W gearbox tooth count library (containing gears with 30, 32, 35, ..., 120 teeth). For each combination, it calculates the actual gear ratio and compares it to the target gear ratio. Finally, the software generates a list containing all gearbox combinations that can achieve a gear ratio error within ±0.00001mm.

[0049] Furthermore, in step S100, a calculation program is selected according to different target devices, and the special gear combination database and transmission ratio calculation in the calculation program are different.

[0050] For different models of metal cutting machine tools, the system has pre-set different calculation programs and dedicated gear combination databases. This is because the internal transmission structure and differential mechanism speed ratio of different machine tools may differ, so the formula for calculating the transmission ratio and the set of available gears will also be different.

[0051] In practice, the software includes a selection interface for different types of spiral flute taps. When the operator performs differential gear calculations for the "Y750W thread grinder differential," they need to select "Y750W differential gear calculation" from the interface. At this time, the software will automatically load the predefined transmission ratio calculation formula for this device and the gear combination database specifically for the Y750W thread grinder differential machine tool (this database may contain a set of gears with a specific range of tooth counts). This ensures the accuracy of the calculation results and the usability of the recommended gears on the actual machine tool.

[0052] Furthermore, the dedicated gear combination database also stores the physical constraint information of the gears, including the limiting conditions for the combination of gear teeth A, B, C, and D.

[0053] The database not only stores the geometric parameter of the number of teeth on the gear train, but also its physical constraint information. Most importantly, it stores the limiting conditions for the combinations of gear train tooth counts A, B, C, and D. These limiting conditions are completely consistent with the actual gear train configuration of the equipment. This solves the problem that gear train combinations recommended by pure mathematical calculations may not be usable during actual installation because the actual number of teeth does not match the calculation results.

[0054] When constructing the database, each set of gear data includes constraints on the combination of gear tooth counts A, B, C, and D. During the iterative calculation process, whenever a mathematically acceptable combination (e.g., A=60, B=80, C=20, D=120) is found, the system checks whether the sum of the tooth counts of gears A and B meets the constraints (e.g., A+B<120), and whether the sum of the tooth counts and bore diameters of gears C and D meets the constraints (e.g., C+D<100). Through this check, physically infeasible combinations can be eliminated in advance.

[0055] Furthermore, in step S400, before or after judging the error condition, a physical feasibility judgment of the gear combination is added, and only gear combinations that satisfy both the error condition and the physical constraints are output.

[0056] Specifically, a physical feasibility assessment step is added before or after the error assessment step S400. This step acts as a filter to ensure that the final output is not only mathematically accurate but also physically installable and operable.

[0057] In the software's logic, the cyclic proportion calculation S300 and error judgment S400 generate a list of qualified combinations. The system then iterates through this list, calling a "physical feasibility check" subroutine for each combination. This subroutine uses the physical information of the four couplings A, B, C, and D stored in the database to determine whether the center distances between A and B, and between C and D, are adjustable, and whether they can be successfully installed on their corresponding shafts. Only combinations that pass this check are retained and ultimately output to the operator.

[0058] Furthermore, the calculation of the target transmission ratio in step S200 includes the following steps:

[0059] S201: Input the tap design process parameters for the target equipment. The tap design process parameters for the target equipment include nominal diameter, tap pitch, number of tap teeth, and tap lead, etc.

[0060] S202: Input the accuracy of the allowable error calculation;

[0061] S203: Based on the input target equipment's tap design process parameters, calculation accuracy, and the transmission ratio calculation formula in the selected calculation program, automatically calculate the target transmission ratio.

[0062] The process transforms the original manual calculation of the target transmission ratio, which required consulting manuals, into an automated sub-process. Users only need to input the most basic tap design process parameters and the desired calculation accuracy, and the system will automatically call the transmission ratio calculation formula in the selected machine tool program to complete the calculation.

[0063] On the software interface, in step S200, after the user inputs data such as tap pitch (P), number of tap teeth (Z), and tap lead, the calculation program automatically invokes the transmission ratio calculation formula in the program to calculate the target transmission ratio, for example, 9.23076923076923. Simultaneously, the calculation precision input by the user (e.g., 0.00001mm) is also recorded by the system for subsequent error assessment.

[0064] Furthermore, the cyclic proportion calculation in step S300 employs a four-fold loop structure, traversing all possible A, B, C, and D tooth values ​​in the database to calculate the proportions for each group. The ratio of .

[0065] This right reveals the specific algorithm implementation of the S300 cyclic ratio calculation—a four-loop structure. This is a typical exhaustive method (or brute-force search method), which uses nested loops to ensure that every possible number of gear teeth in the database is combined, thus ensuring that no potential solutions are missed.

[0066] When implemented using programming languages ​​like Visual Basic and Java, four nested loop statements are used; this structure ensures that all... All combinations will be calculated.

[0067] Furthermore, in step S500, all gear combinations that satisfy the judgment conditions of step S400 are output and displayed in ascending order of actual error value.

[0068] The output gear combinations are not randomly arranged, but rather sorted according to their actual error values ​​from smallest to largest. This allows operators to prioritize and select the most accurate configuration that best meets processing quality requirements.

[0069] Before the software outputs the results, all matching gear combinations are collected into a list. The system then sorts this list in ascending order based on the actual error value of each combination. Finally, in the table displayed to the user, the combination with the smallest error (e.g., 0.00001mm) is placed in the first row, the combination with a slightly larger error (e.g., 0.00001mm) in the second row, and so on. Operators can prioritize the combinations ranked higher.

[0070] An electronic device includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor. When the processor loads and executes the program, all steps of the method (from S100 to S500) are implemented. Specific forms of the electronic device include, but are not limited to: desktop computers, laptops, tablets, smartphones, industrial control computers (IPCs) used in industrial settings, or human-machine interfaces (HMIs) with computing capabilities.

[0071] A computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon. This computer-readable access medium includes, but is not limited to: optical media (such as CD-ROM, DVD), magnetic media (such as hard disk, portable hard disk), solid-state storage media (such as USB flash drive, SD card, SSD solid-state drive), and digital distribution forms such as non-volatile memory (such as ROM, FLASH) provided via a network server, which are crucial in the context of modern cloud computing and the Internet of Things (IoT).

[0072] A metal cutting machine tool system includes a metal cutting machine tool and a computing terminal communicatively connected to it. The computing terminal is configured as described above and sends the calculated changeover wheel configuration results to the display interface of a computer or handheld terminal. A closed-loop digital information flow is formed between the system's computing terminal and the machine tool. The computing terminal is configured as a dedicated "changeover wheel configuration server," responsible for performing all complex calculations and selection tasks. The final calculation result—the optimal changeover wheel combination—no longer requires manual transcription and input by the operator but is directly displayed on the computing terminal's interface.

Based on the input tap design process parameters, the calculation program automatically calculates the target transmission ratio as 9.23076923076923 using the transmission ratio calculation formula. The calculation formula is as follows:
