Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of gear hobbing machine technology, and in particular to a high-efficiency gear hobbing machine. Background Technology
[0002] Gear hobbing is one of the most commonly used cutting processes in gear manufacturing. Traditional CNC gear hobbing machines typically use the linkage rotation of the hob shaft and the workpiece shaft, combined with the longitudinal feed of the hob holder along the workpiece axis to achieve gear machining. In actual production, the industry mostly uses a downward feed climb milling method. In this type of machine tool, during the machining process, the hob holder starts from the top of the gear to be machined and gradually moves downward as the gear rotates until it cuts through the bottom edge of the gear.
[0003] However, in existing gear hobbing processes, when the hob holder feeds downwards to the bottom end face of the workpiece, the material loses its physical support from below the cutting edge the instant it exits. This causes the cutting force to change from localized shearing to extrusion, resulting in plastic flow of the material and leaving extrusion burrs on the bottom end face of the gear. Currently, these extrusion burrs are mostly removed manually or through offline secondary processing in industrial settings. Because the burrs are unevenly distributed and firmly connected at the root, manual operation is not only labor-intensive but also prone to causing scratches on the end face or exceeding the dimensional tolerances of the gear chamfer due to inconsistent scraping force, making it difficult to meet the product consistency requirements of highly flexible automated production lines.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0034] In order to further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by the present application to achieve the predetermined object, the specific embodiments, structures, features and effects according to the present application will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0035] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings.
[0036] Referring to Figures 1-8 The present application provides a high-efficiency hobbing machine, which mainly comprises a machine tool main body 1 for providing a high-precision cutting processing space and stable support for the overall machine structure, a deburring assembly 3 for fitting the gear bottom surface and performing rotary cutting during the hob return phase to remove plastic flow deburring, a driving displacement assembly 4 for realizing the axial reciprocating lifting of the deburring mechanism and synchronously providing rotary power, and a covering assembly 5 for shielding the precision assembly during hobbing processing and being controlled to open to leave out the processing space during the deburring phase.
[0037] The machine tool main body 1 has a machine tool base 12, and the upper surface of the machine tool base 12 is horizontally provided with a worktable base 13 for bearing the entire processing load. A fixture base 14 is vertically fixed on the worktable base 13, and the fixture base 14 serves as the core support of the workpiece clamping system. A boss 141 is integrally arranged on the top of the fixture base 14, and a rotary turntable 15 is arranged at the center of the boss 141. The rotary turntable 15 is sequentially and downwardly arranged through the top fixture base 14 and the boss 141, and is in transmission connection with a driving part arranged in the fixture base 14. The rotary turntable 15 is used to support and drive the to-be-processed gear blank to perform the rotary movement required for cutting.
[0038] An operating door 2 is slidably arranged on the machine tool body 1, which is used to open or close the machining area and prevent the cooling liquid and chips from splashing during machining. A Z-axis guide rail support 16 is vertically arranged on one side of the inner wall of the machine tool body 1, which provides precise guide support for the longitudinal feed of the hob. A tailstock slide plate (not marked in the figure) is slidably arranged on the Z-axis guide rail support 16. A follow-up center 161 is arranged at the end of the cantilever of the tailstock slide plate, which is located directly above the rotary turntable 15 and is configured to be driven downward by hydraulic pressure before machining starts. The conical end of the follow-up center 161 is inserted into the center hole of the gear blank, so as to clamp the gear blank from the top, and cooperate with the rotary turntable 15 at the bottom to realize the bidirectional axial centering and clamping stability of the workpiece during high-speed rotary cutting.
[0039] And a hob holder slide 17 is slidably arranged on the lifting guide rail on the other side of the inner wall of the machine tool body 1. A hob holder body 110 is installed on the hob holder slide 17, and a hob spindle 18 is arranged in the hob holder body 110. A hob driving motor 19 is also arranged on the hob holder slide 17, which serves as the main cutting power source and drives the hob on the hob spindle 18 to rotate and cut.
[0040] In the actual machining cycle, the hob feeds downward along the Z-axis guide rail support 16 with the hob holder slide 17. When the hob cuts to the outlet position at the bottom end of the workpiece, the position feedback signal will synchronously trigger the driving displacement assembly 4 located inside the clamp base 14, so as to control the deburring assembly 3 and the covering assembly 5 below to perform corresponding linkage avoidance or scraping actions.
[0041] As shown in Figures 6-8 In order to fit the gear bottom surface and perform rotary cutting during the hob return stroke, the deburring assembly 3 includes an annular sleeve box 31 which is vertically slidably sleeved on the outer periphery of the boss 141. In order to realize axial guidance and limit circumferential rotation, a plurality of vertical embedding grooves are formed on the surface of the boss 141. A pin block 311 is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the annular sleeve box 31 and embedded in the embedding groove. A return spring (not shown in the figure) is connected between the bottom surface of the pin block 311 and the inner wall bottom surface of the embedding groove.
[0042] When the driving displacement assembly 4 stops lifting or performs avoidance action, the return spring releases the pre-tightening energy and applies a downward pulling force to the pin block 311, driving the annular sleeve box 31 to slide downward along the vertical track of the embedding groove and reset. During upward sliding, the return spring is passively stretched and cooperates with the side wall of the embedding groove to limit the rotation of the pin block 311, thereby forcibly restricting the annular sleeve box 31 to make linear lifting action only along the axis direction of the boss 141.
[0043] Continuing to refer to Figures 6-8As shown, the inner ring gear 33 is rotatably arranged inside the annular sleeve box 31 through the bearing member 32, the deburring assembly 3 further comprises a support cover 34 coaxially sleeved on the boss 141, the top surface of the inner ring gear 33 is circumferentially provided with a plurality of upwardly open movable grooves, the bottom of the support cover 34 is fixedly provided with a plurality of vertically downward support rods 341, the end of each support rod 341 is slidingly embedded in the corresponding movable groove, so as to realize the synchronous rotation driving of the support cover 34 by the inner ring gear 33. The milling disc 35 is fixedly arranged at the top outlet end of the support cover 34, the surface of the milling disc 35 is provided with a plurality of scraping members 352 for cutting burrs and slopes 351 for outwardly guiding chips, in addition, the end of each support rod 341 and the bottom surface of the movable groove are connected with a buffer spring (not shown in the figure), when the milling disc 35 moves upward with the annular sleeve box 31 and touches the bottom surface of the workpiece, the support rod 341 performs axial displacement in the movable groove to produce elastic retreat compensation, maintain constant scraping pressure and absorb cutting vibration.
[0044] As shown in the figure, Figures 3-5 The driving displacement assembly 4 for driving the deburring mechanism to act is arranged inside the clamp base 14, the driving displacement assembly 4 comprises a base plate 41 fixed at the bottom position of the inner wall of the clamp base 14, two mounting seats 411 symmetrically arranged on the base plate 41, a rotating groove wheel 42 rotatably connected between the two mounting seats 411 and a servo power motor 45 for providing power.
[0045] The servo power motor 45 is fixed inside the bottom surface of the clamp base 14, and the output end thereof is in transmission connection with the rotating groove wheel 42, the outer periphery of the rotating groove wheel 42 is provided with a closed space curve groove, a follower pin is embedded in the space curve groove, and a driven sliding block 43 is fixed on the follower pin, and two vertically arranged guide rods 44 are fixed between the two mounting seats 411, the driven sliding block 43 is slidingly sleeved on the two guide rods 44, the rotating groove wheel 42 is driven to rotate by the servo power motor 45, and the driven sliding block 43 is driven to perform controlled reciprocating lifting movement along the guide rod 44 by the space curve groove track.
[0046] Further, the driving displacement assembly 4 further comprises a U-shaped linkage fork 46 and a jacking transmission rod 47. The U-shaped linkage fork 46 is fixed on the side surface of the driven sliding block 43, the bottom end of the jacking transmission rod 47 is rigidly connected with the U-shaped linkage fork 46, and the top end of the jacking transmission rod 47 penetrates through the inner space of the clamp base 14 upwardly and contacts the bottom surface of the annular sleeve box 31. In this way, through the linear reciprocating movement of the driven sliding block 43, the power is transmitted to the deburring assembly 3 through the jacking transmission rod 47, so as to realize the axial lifting of the annular sleeve box 31.
[0047] In order to realize the rotation power transmission, the driving displacement assembly 4 further comprises a key groove rod 48 coaxially fixedly connected with the rotary groove wheel 42, the key groove rod 48 penetrates upward through the inner space of the clamp base 14 and is fixed with a driving gear 49, the driving gear 49 is bearing arranged on the bottom surface of the inner wall of the annular sleeve box 31 and is engaged with the inner ring gear 33, wherein the shaft hole of the driving gear 49 and the key groove rod 48 form a sliding spline pair, in the actual action cycle, the servo power motor 45 first drives the driving gear 49 to perform a rotating action through the key groove rod 48, and then drives the inner ring gear 33 and the milling disc 35 to rotate.
[0048] In this rotation process, the annular sleeve box 31 is driven to perform axial lifting displacement by the lifting driving rod 47, and the driving gear 49 is axially limited in the annular sleeve box 31, so that the driving gear 49 synchronously rises with the annular sleeve box 31 and performs axial sliding along the axis direction of the key groove rod 48, and the sliding spline cooperation ensures that the deburring assembly 3 can always maintain stable power transmission coupling with the driving displacement assembly 4 in the complex lifting reciprocating motion process, so as to realize the continuous rotation cleaning of the milling disc 35.
[0049] As shown in Figures 3-4 and Figure 8 , the device further comprises a covering assembly 5 for protecting deburring, the covering assembly 5 comprises a plurality of right-angle frames 51 fixed on the outer wall surface of the clamp base 14, a plurality of arc-shaped protective covers 56 movably connected with one end of the right-angle frame 51 through a torsional spring hinged piece 52, and a driving top shaft arranged on the deburring assembly 3.
[0050] Specifically, the vertical section of each group of right-angle frames 51 extends outward to the peripheral side of the milling disc 35, and the plurality of arc-shaped protective covers 56 are downwardly hung under the action of the torsional spring hinged piece 52 in the initial closed state, and are mutually spliced to form a horn-shaped protective structure which is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, which is wrapped above the milling disc 35, so as to guide the high-pressure cutting fluid and splashed iron chips generated in the gear hobbing process and prevent them from entering the interior of the deburring assembly 3.
[0051] Further, the driving top shaft comprises a plurality of groups of mounting frames 53 fixed on the peripheral side edge of the annular sleeve box 31, and a vertical top rod 54 fixed on the top surface of each mounting frame 53, the vertical top rod 54 synchronously axially displaces with the annular sleeve box 31, and the top end of the vertical top rod 54 is just located on the inner side stress surface of the lower edge of the arc-shaped protective cover 56.
[0052] When the drive displacement component 4 drives the annular sleeve 31 to perform an upward cleaning stroke, the vertical push rod 54 rises synchronously, and its end directly abuts and pushes the inner wall of the arc-shaped cover 56. As the arc-shaped cover 56 is axially constrained by the torsion spring hinge 52, it flips outward and upward around the hinge point under the action of the pushing force. As the arc-shaped cover 56 opens, the milling disc 35 is fully exposed and continues to rise until it is close to the bottom surface of the gear to be processed for cleaning. When the cleaning is completed and the annular sleeve 31 descends and resets, the vertical push rod 54 is withdrawn, and the arc-shaped cover 56 closes and resets again under the action of the torsion spring, forming a protective state again.
[0053] Working principle: Before the machining cycle begins, the operator places the gear blank on the rotary table 15. The follower center 161 moves downward along the Z-axis guide rail support 16 under hydraulic drive, pressing against the center hole at the top of the blank. Together with the rotary table 15 at the bottom, it completes the axial centering and stable clamping of the workpiece. At this time, the deburring assembly 3 is in the initial clearance position below, and the several arc-shaped protective covers 56 of the covering assembly 5 are closed under the preload of the torsion spring hinge 52, forming a trumpet-shaped protective shield to shield the milling disc 35. Subsequently, the hob drive motor 19 drives the hob to rotate at high speed, and the hob holder slide 17 drives the hob to feed downward along the Z-axis to perform hobbing. During this process, the trumpet-shaped protective structure effectively guides the high-pressure cutting fluid and splashed iron chips, ensuring that the precision deburring mechanism is not impacted by impurities and maintaining the initial cleanliness of the system.
[0054] After the hob is fed to the exit position at the bottom of the gear and completes tooth cutting, the displacement component 4 is activated by a limit switch on the Z-axis or a servo drive signal linked to the CNC system. The servo motor 45 starts and drives the rotating grooved wheel 42 to rotate. The spatial curve groove on its surface forces the driven slider 43 to slide upward along the guide rod 44. The driven slider 43 drives the lifting transmission rod 47 to rise vertically through the U-shaped linkage fork 46, thereby pushing the annular sleeve 31. During the rise of the annular sleeve 31, the vertical push rod 54 fixed on it moves upward synchronously and abuts against the inner force-bearing surface of the arc-shaped cover 56. As the pushing force is continuously applied, the arc-shaped cover 56 overcomes the torsion spring force and flips outward and upward around the hinge point, revealing the previously covered milling disc 35, which continues to rise until it is close to the bottom surface of the gear to be processed. This linkage logic ensures precise phase matching between the deburring action and the hob return stroke, achieving seamless connection.
[0055] As the annular sleeve 31 is lifted, the power of the rotating grooved wheel 42 is transmitted to the drive gear 49 through the coaxial keyway rod 48. Since the drive gear 49 is engaged with the keyway rod 48 through a sliding spline pair, it can stably receive torque and drive the inner ring gear 33 to rotate while sliding axially with the annular sleeve 31. The inner ring gear 33 drives the milling disc 35 to rotate at high speed via the support rod 341. The scraper 352 on the milling disc 35 performs cutting and cleaning on the plastic burrs at the bottom of the gear. At this time, the buffer spring at the bottom of the support rod 341 ensures that the milling disc 35 maintains a constant scraping pressure on the bottom surface of the workpiece through slight axial displacement compensation. After the cleaning cycle ends, the rotating grooved wheel 42 rotates to the reset stroke, the lifting transmission rod 47 moves downward, and the annular sleeve 31 quickly retracts to its original position under the tension of the reset spring. As the vertical push rod 54 is withdrawn, the arc-shaped cover 56 automatically closes under the action of the torsion spring, re-entering the protective state, completing a complete deburring cycle.
