Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical transmission, in particular to a five-axis numerically controlled machine tool. Background Art
[0002] In the fields of titanium alloy, high temperature alloy and high strength steel, the traditional processing method is used. When the tool contacts the workpiece for cutting, there is a force between the tool and the workpiece, which causes a slight elastic deformation of the cutting tool and the workpiece, affecting the processing accuracy. At the same time, it is difficult to process holes in some special positions, such as the processing of small holes in the engine combustion chamber, using conventional processing methods. Therefore, the existing technology uses laser processing holes.
[0003] CNC machine tools are digitally controlled machine tools. They are automated machine tools equipped with a program control system. Information is input into the CNC device through an information carrier, and after calculation and processing, the CNC device sends out various control signals to control the movement of the machine tool and automatically process parts according to the shape and size required by the drawing.
[0004] Cam machine tools need to process multiple sides of workpieces during processing, and existing cam machine tools cannot achieve the various large swing angle adjustments required for processing. If the workpiece is transferred and clamped multiple times to achieve overall processing, the processing accuracy of the workpiece will be affected due to multiple clamping processes.

The ATC automatic tool changing mechanism 56 drives the tool changing arm 57 to take out the tool in the tool sleeve 53 and install it on the machining shaft 38.
[0080] The tool magazine body 51 includes a connecting disk 511 and a support ring 512 extending along the circumference of the connecting disk 511 and protruding in the axial direction of the connecting disk 511. A connecting shaft 510 is fixed at the center of the connecting disk 511. The cutter disc 52 is arranged in the support ring 512. A connecting through hole 5210 is opened at the center of the cutter disc 52. The connecting shaft 510 is arranged in the connecting through hole 5210 and is rotatably connected to the cutter disc 52 through a bearing.
[0081] The lower end of the support ring 512 is provided with a reverse cutter groove 5120 for providing space for a knife sleeve 53 to perform steering switching. The end surface of the connecting disc 511 away from the cutter disc 52 is provided with a mounting groove 5110 and a moving through groove 5111. The mounting groove 5110 is generally circular and is coaxially arranged with the connecting shaft 510. The moving through groove 5111 penetrates the connecting disc 511 in the thickness direction, and the moving through groove 5111 is interconnected with the mounting groove 5110 and the reverse cutter groove 5120. The steering assembly 58 is arranged in the mounting groove 5110 and the moving through groove 5111.
[0082] Specifically, the steering assembly 58 includes a steering cylinder 581 and a steering push plate 582 connected to the telescopic rod of the steering cylinder 81. The steering push plate 582 is provided with a steering slot 5820. The knife sleeve 53 is partially movably arranged in the steering slot 5820. The steering push plate 582 is driven by the steering cylinder 581 to move to drive the knife sleeve 53 to switch. The steering cylinder 581 is fixed in the mounting slot 5110 of the connecting disk 511 by fasteners such as screws or bolts. The steering push plate 582 is movably arranged in the moving through slot 5111. When the knife sleeve 53 with the tool to be taken rotates to the reverse knife slot 5120 with the knife disc 52, the knife sleeve 53 is partially placed in the steering slot 5820 of the steering push plate 582. At this time, the telescopic rod of the steering cylinder 581 is contracted, thereby driving the steering push plate 582 to move in the moving through slot 5111 so that the knife sleeve 53 switches in the reverse knife slot 5120.
[0083] The steering assembly 58 also includes a solenoid valve and a controllable throttle valve. The solenoid valve is fixed on the tool magazine body 51. The solenoid valve is connected to the machine tool control system. The machine tool control system instructs the solenoid valve to control the push-out and return of the steering cylinder 581. The controllable throttle valve is arranged on the connecting pipe between the steering cylinder 581 and the air source. The controllable throttle valve is connected to the machine tool control system. Under the control of the machine tool control system, the controllable throttle valve can adjust the air flow rate supplied to the steering cylinder 581, thereby controlling the running speed of the steering cylinder 581, so that the steering cylinder 581 can execute different running speeds for different tools. When the steering cylinder 581 pushes a small and light tool, the running speed of the steering cylinder 581 is faster, thereby improving the tool change speed; when the steering cylinder 581 pushes a large and heavy tool, the running speed of the steering cylinder 581 is slower, thereby avoiding the tool sleeve impacting the tool sleeve 53 clamping the heavy tool and the impact collision with the tool disc 2 and the tool magazine body 51, thereby improving the stability of the tool magazine operation.
[0084] The steering assembly 58 also includes a first sensing system for identifying the push-out and return of the steering cylinder 581 and feeding back the identification signal to the machine tool control system. The first sensing system includes a sensing frame (not shown) fixed on the steering push plate 582 and located on one side of the steering cylinder 81, and two first proximity switches (not shown) fixed on the tool magazine body 51. The two first proximity switches are arranged at intervals on one side of the sensing frame along the telescopic direction of the telescopic axis of the steering cylinder 581. When the steering cylinder 581 drives the steering push plate 582 to push the knife sleeve 53 from the horizontal state to the vertical state, the free end of the sensing frame is driven by the steering cylinder 581 and cooperates with a first proximity switch arranged close to the steering push plate 582, thereby identifying that the steering cylinder 581 is in the push-out position. At this time, a knife sleeve 53 on the knife disc 52 is in a vertical state; when the steering cylinder 581 shrinks to the original position, the free end of the sensing frame is driven by the steering cylinder 581 and cooperates with another first proximity switch arranged away from the steering push plate 582, thereby identifying that the steering cylinder 581 is in the original position.
[0085] The two first proximity switches are respectively connected to the machine tool control system so that the machine tool control system can accurately determine whether the steering cylinder 581 is in the push-out position or in the original position.
[0086] Four rectangularly distributed connecting bosses 5113 are also fixed on the end surface of the tool magazine body 51 away from the tool disc 52, and the ATC automatic tool changing mechanism 56 is fixed on the connecting bosses 5113 by fasteners such as bolts. The four connecting bosses 5113 are arranged near the mounting grooves 5110 and the moving through grooves 5111, so that the steering assembly 58 is arranged between the tool disc body 51 and the ATC automatic tool changing mechanism 56.
[0087] Reference Fig.11 The cutter disc 52 includes a rotating disc 521 and a limiting ring 522 extending along the circumference of the rotating disc 521 and extending toward the axial direction of the rotating disc 521. The limiting ring 522 is arranged parallel to the support ring 512. A plurality of cutter sleeves 53 are arranged between the limiting ring 522 and the support ring 512 and are rotatably connected to the limiting ring 522.
[0088] Specifically, a plurality of connection blocks 523 are distributed at intervals along the circumferential direction on the lower end of the end surface of the limiting ring 522 facing the support ring 512, and the connection blocks 523 are provided with shaft grooves. Fig.13The knife sleeve 53 includes a knife cup 530, two steering plates 531 and two connecting ears 533 connected as one body. The two steering plates 531 are fixed to the bottom of the knife cup 530, and a steering shaft 532 is arranged between the two steering plates 531; the two connecting ears 533 are arranged at the lower end of the knife cup 530 and protrude toward the knife disc 52, and a rotating shaft 534 is arranged between the two connecting ears 533, and the rotating shaft 534 is rotatably arranged in the shaft groove of the connecting block 523. Furthermore, a support wheel 535 is fixed to the end face of the knife cup 530 facing the support ring 512 of the knife sleeve 53, and the lower end of the support wheel 535 is supported on the top of the support ring 512.
[0089] Due to the limitation of the knife sleeve 53 by the support ring 512 and the limit ring 522, the knife sleeve 53 can be fixed relative to the knife disc 52. When the knife sleeve 53 rotates to the reverse knife groove 5120, the steering shaft 532 of the knife sleeve 53 will enter the steering slot 5820 of the steering push plate 582. When the steering push plate 582 remains stationary, the steering slot 5820 of the steering push plate 582 will continue to keep the knife sleeve 53 stationary; when it is necessary to take out the knife, the telescopic rod of the steering cylinder 581 shrinks, and the steering push plate 582 moves upward, so that the knife sleeve 53 rotates around the rotation axis 534, and rotates from the horizontal direction to the vertical direction; when the knife is used up and inserted into the knife sleeve 53, the telescopic rod of the steering cylinder 581 extends, and the steering push plate 582 moves downward, so that the knife sleeve 53 rotates around the rotation axis 534, and rotates from the vertical direction to the horizontal direction.
[0090] The second transmission assembly 55 includes an integrated camshaft 551, a driving gear (not shown), a driven gear 552 and a chain 553. The driving gear is fixed to the output shaft of the cutter motor 54, the driven gear 552 is fixed to the integrated camshaft 551, and the driven gear 552 and the driving gear are connected by the chain 553 to realize synchronous rotation.
[0091] The integrated camshaft 551 is provided with a spiral engaging rib 5510 and a fan-shaped protrusion 5511 arranged above the engaging rib 5510 , and a plurality of third needle roller bearings 520 are evenly and spacedly distributed along the circumferential direction on the end face edge of the rotating disk 521 toward the connecting disk 511 , and the plurality of third needle roller bearings 520 are engaged with the engaging rib 5510 .
[0092] The disc tool magazine further includes a support frame 541, which is fixed to the end face of the tool magazine body 51 away from the cutter disc 52 by bolts and other fasteners, and the cutter disc motor 54 is fixed to the top of the support frame 541. The tool magazine body 51 is also provided with a square through slot 5112 that penetrates the tool magazine body 51 in the thickness direction, and the support frame 541 is fixed at the square through slot 5112. The support frame 541 includes an upper bearing seat 542 and a lower bearing seat 543, which extend toward the cutter disc 52 after passing through the square through slot, and an integrated camshaft 551 is arranged between the upper bearing seat 542 and the lower bearing seat 543, and the upper end and the lower end of the integrated camshaft 551 are rotatably connected to the upper bearing seat 542 and the lower bearing seat 543 through bearings.
[0093] The disc tool magazine also includes at least one second proximity switch that cooperates with the fan-shaped protrusion 5511 to identify the stop point of the integrated camshaft 551. The second proximity switch is connected to the machine tool control system. The second proximity switch is used to identify the stop point signal of the meshing rib 5510, thereby confirming the stop position of the tool disc 52, and output the stop point signal to the machine tool control system so that the machine tool control system can control the start and stop and running speed of the tool disc motor 54. Specifically, the fan-shaped protrusion 5511 corresponds to the stop point of the meshing rib 5510. When the second proximity switch senses the fan-shaped protrusion 5511, the second proximity switch outputs a signal to the machine tool control system.
[0094] Preferably, the disc-type tool magazine is provided with two second proximity switches, wherein one second proximity switch is used to confirm the stop position of the tool disc 52 and transmit the stop point signal to the machine tool control system so that the machine tool control system can control the start and stop of the tool disc motor 54, and the other second proximity switch is used for counting.
[0095] The disc tool magazine further includes a tool magazine shield 91 , which is disposed on the outside of the tool magazine body 51 and the tool disc 52 to protect components such as the tool magazine body 51 and the tool disc 52 . The tool magazine shield 91 is provided with a transparent acrylic plate.
[0096] The disc tool magazine also includes an APB digital display control box, which is fixed on the ATC automatic tool changing mechanism 56 and connected to the machine tool control system. The APB digital display control box is preset with multiple groups of output data groups at different angles for different tool types. The APB digital display control box can be set to output dozens of control signals to the machine tool control system.
[0097] The APB digital display control box is set behind the transparent acrylic plate, through which the operating angle information and working status displayed on the APB digital display control box can be observed.
[0098] The disc-type tool magazine also includes an angle encoder fixed on the ATC automatic tool changing mechanism 56, which is electrically connected to the APB digital display control box. The angle encoder is used to identify the angular position of the tool changing arm 57 and output the identified signal to the APB digital display control box.
[0099] When changing tools in the tool magazine, the APB digital display control box identifies the angular position of the tool changing arm 57 according to the angle encoder and sends a control signal to the machine tool control system. The machine tool control system sends operation instructions to the frequency converter, solenoid valve and controllable throttle valve according to the control signal input by the APB digital display control box, the information transmitted by the second proximity switch, the signal transmitted by the first proximity switch and the tool to be replaced. After receiving the operation instruction, the frequency converter drives the motor of the ATC automatic tool changing mechanism 56 to accelerate or decelerate. After receiving the instruction, the solenoid valve and the controllable throttle valve respectively control the push, return and operation speed of the steering cylinder 581. Specifically, when exchanging conventional tools, the tool magazine runs quickly throughout the entire process; when exchanging heavier tools, the steering cylinder 581 decelerates, and after the tool changing arm 57 takes out the tool, the motor of the ATC automatic tool changing mechanism 56 starts to decelerate, thereby reducing the rotation speed of the tool changing arm 57 to avoid vibration of the mechanism due to large inertia; when exchanging large and heavy tools, the steering cylinder 581 decelerates, and after the tool changing arm 57 grabs the tool at the tool grabbing point, the motor of the ATC automatic tool changing mechanism 56 starts to decelerate until the tool exchange is completed, and the ATC automatic tool changing mechanism 56 accelerates again to quickly return to the origin, so that during the tool changing process, the pull-down, rotation and tool insertion actions will not vibrate, protecting the machine tool tool spindle hole from the impact of the tool inertia, thereby improving the stability of the disc tool magazine and extending the service life of the disc tool magazine.
[0100] When changing tools in a conventional tool magazine, the tool changing arm 57 moves to the tool locking point and pauses for about 1 to 2 seconds to wait for the spindle to release the tool, then pulls down to take out the tool, rotates and exchanges, and rises to the tool inserting point to install the tool, then pauses and waits for the spindle to lock the tool for about 1 to 2 seconds, and then the tool changing arm 57 moves back to the origin. The tool changing arm 57 pauses and waits for a long time during the entire tool changing process, which makes the tool changing efficiency of the tool magazine low, thereby affecting the operating efficiency of the machine tool.
[0101] The APB digital display control box disclosed in the present invention can be set to send a signal to the machine tool control system in advance according to the angle position of the tool change arm 57 identified by the angle encoder, so that the machine tool control system sends a signal to release the tool in advance, so that the tool release action is basically completed when the tool change arm 57 runs to the tool clamping point, and the tool can be pulled down and taken out within about 0.5 seconds. At the same time, the APB digital display control box outputs a signal to the machine tool system in advance to execute the tool locking instruction during the rotation and exchange rising process of the tool change arm 57. When the tool change arm 57 runs to the tool insertion point and the tool is loaded and waits for about 0.5 seconds, the tool locking action is completed, which shortens the waiting time of the tool change arm 57 during the tool change process, especially when the workpiece has many processing processes and requires frequent tool changes, the time saving is particularly prominent.
[0102] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to the above embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention.
