[0002] Lathes are mainly used to process rotating workpieces. When processing workpieces, the workpiece is often positioned by the chuck on the spindle. Specifically, the center inside the spindle holds the workpiece against the spindle, and then the jaws (mostly three jaws) on the chuck clamp the workpiece to achieve the positioning of the workpiece.

By improving the clamping and support structure, the stability of long shaft workpieces during machining can be improved. However, since long shaft workpieces are mostly fixed on the lathe by chuck, the shaft segments far from the chuck are prone to displacement or vibration because they are not clamped. Existing lathes do not have real-time detection function for machining accuracy, which affects product quality. Summary of the Invention

[0013] The technical solution of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, what is described is only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the 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.
[0014] See Figure 1-6 A high-precision conventional lathe includes: a machine body 1, a tool post 2 slidably mounted on the machine body 1, a three-jaw chuck 3 on the machine body 1 for fixing the workpiece, a detection component on the machine body 1 including a first cylinder 4, a ball bearing 5, and a spring 6, the first cylinder 4 being horizontally positioned, the ball bearing 5 being rolled and embedded at the end of the first cylinder 4 with its center at the same horizontal height as the center of the three-jaw chuck 3, the spring 6 being horizontally positioned inside the first cylinder 4, the first cylinder 4 being mounted on the machine body 1 via an adjustment assembly, and a feedback component connected to the first cylinder 4 via a hose 7, the feedback component including an air tank 8 and a pressure sensor 9, the pressure sensor 9 being fixedly mounted inside the air tank 8, the input end of the air tank 8 being connected to the output end of the first cylinder 4 via the hose 7, and the pressure sensor 9 being electrically connected to an external terminal device.
[0015] The adjustment assembly includes a guide rail 10, a slide table 11, a first motor 12, a first screw 13, and a support block 14. The guide rail 10 is horizontally fixedly installed on the upper surface of the machine body 1. The slide table 11 is slidably embedded in the guide rail 10. The support block 14 is fixedly installed on the machine body 1. The first motor 12 is fixedly installed on the machine body 1. The first screw 13 is horizontally threaded through the slide table 11, and one end is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 12 through a coupling. The end of the first screw 13 away from the first motor 12 is rotatably sleeved in the support block 14.
[0016] The adjustment assembly also includes a second motor 15, a second screw 16, a sleeve 17, and a connecting plate 18. The sleeve 17 is fixedly mounted on the slide table 11, the first cylinder 4 is slidably sleeved inside the sleeve 17, the second motor 15 is fixedly mounted on the slide table 11, the connecting plate 18 is fixedly sleeved at the end of the first cylinder 4, the second screw 16 is threadedly sleeved inside the connecting plate 18, and its end is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor 15 through a coupling.
[0017] When processing long shaft workpieces using this equipment, the end of the workpiece is clamped and fixed by a three-jaw chuck 3. Then, the first motor 12 and the second motor 15 are started. The second motor 15 rotates, driving the first cylinder 4 to move within the sleeve 17 via the second screw 16 and the connecting plate 18, so that the ball bearing 5 is in contact with the side of the workpiece. After contact with the workpiece, the terminal device records the pressure value of the first cylinder 4 at this time, which is the initial pressure value. During the processing, the first cylinder 4 contracts or extends, causing the pressure inside the air tank 8 to change. The pressure sensor 9 measures the air pressure inside the air tank 8 and feeds the measurement result back to the external terminal device in a timely manner. The terminal device then obtains the pressure value. The change is obtained by comparing the data value with the initial value, which determines the extension and retraction of the first cylinder 4, thereby obtaining the workpiece vibration parameters. The first motor 12 rotates, driving the slide table 11 to slide on the guide rail 10 through the first screw 13, causing the first cylinder 4 to move along the axis of the workpiece. The entire workpiece is then inspected. If the change in the detection value of the pressure sensor 9 is within a reasonable range, it indicates that the workpiece is in a standard state during processing. If the pressure value exceeds the normal range, it indicates that the vibration of the workpiece exceeds the allowable range, and the machine needs to be stopped for inspection. Through the above method, the state of the workpiece can be detected in real time to avoid the vibration of the workpiece exceeding the normal value and to ensure the processing accuracy of the workpiece.
[0018] During processing, the ball bearings 5 can be positioned on the opposite side of the tool holder 2, so that the force applied by the first cylinder 4 to the tool holder 2 can be corrected, avoiding excessive force on one side of the workpiece, thus balancing the force on the workpiece and further improving the processing accuracy of the workpiece.
[0019] Example 2: The gas tank 8 is fixedly installed on the side of the slide table 11 by two retaining rings 19, and the bottom end is connected to the drawing component through the guide pipe 20.
[0020] The drawing components include a second cylinder 21, a support frame 22, a copy plate 23, and a carbon pen 24. The support frame 22 is fixedly installed on the side of the slide table 11. The second cylinder 21 is horizontally fixedly installed inside the support frame 22. The copy plate 23 is horizontally fixedly installed on the side of the machine body 1. The carbon pen 24 is vertically movably sleeved on the end of the second cylinder 21. The end of the second cylinder 21 is provided with a locking screw, which is used to fix the carbon pen 24 after replacement. The bottom end of the air tank 8 is connected to the input end of the second cylinder 21 through a guide pipe 20. A valve is provided on the guide pipe 20. When using the pressure sensor 9 for detection, the valve on the guide pipe 20 must be closed.
[0021] During the testing process, the valve can be opened to allow the second cylinder 21 to operate in tandem with the first cylinder 4. The second cylinder 21 is affected by the extension or contraction of the first cylinder 4, which drives the carbon pen 24 to draw the trajectory of the extension and contraction of the first cylinder 4 on the carbon copy plate 23. Based on the trajectory, the length range of the workpiece that vibrates beyond the normal range can be clearly and intuitively determined, which is convenient for later maintenance.
[0022] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
