DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The specific implementation of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In order to fully understand the present invention, many details are described below, but for those skilled in the art, the present invention can be implemented without these details.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a vertical turret multi-axis compound machine tool includes a base 1, a column 2, a turret multi-axis spindle head 3 and a workbench 4. The main innovation of the utility model lies in the improvement of the internal structure of the turret multi-axis spindle head 3. Specifically, the turret multi-axis spindle head 3 includes a cutter disc 31, a cutter seat 32, a first drive mechanism 33 and a locking mechanism. There is an installation cavity for installing the locking mechanism between the cutter disc 31 and the cutter seat 32; the locking mechanism includes a fixed tooth disc 341, a movable tooth disc 342, a locking disc 343 and an oil cylinder; the fixed tooth disc 341 is fixedly connected to the cutter seat 32; the movable tooth disc 342 is fixedly connected to the cutter disc 31, and drives the cutter disc 31 to rotate through the first drive mechanism 33; the locking disc 343 is axially movably arranged in the installation cavity through the oil cylinder, so as to engage with or separate from the fixed tooth disc 341 and the movable tooth disc 342.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, when it is necessary to switch the tool, the first drive mechanism 33 can be used to drive the movable toothed disc 342 to rotate, thereby controlling the rotation of the cutter disc 31 so that the designated tool is aligned with the workpiece on the workbench 4; after the tool is switched, the locking disc 343 can be controlled by the oil cylinder to axially move to mesh with the fixed toothed disc 341 and the movable toothed disc 342, thereby locking the cutter disc 31 to prevent it from rotating relative to the tool holder 32 during the processing and causing the tool to vibrate. It can be seen that the movable toothed disc 342 in the utility model can not only play the role of transmission connection between the first drive mechanism 33 and the cutter disc 31, but also cooperate with the fixed toothed disc 341 and the locking disc 343 to lock the cutter disc 31, thereby optimizing the internal structure of the turret multi-axis spindle head 3 and making the locking process of the three-piece locking mechanism more accurate and controllable.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first driving mechanism 33 includes a rotating motor 331 and a transmission gear 332. The rotating motor 331 is arranged above the knife seat 32. The transmission gear 332 is arranged on the output shaft of the rotating motor 331 and meshes with the movable gear plate 342. In order to protect the internal structure, the first driving mechanism 33 is also equipped with a motor housing 333 that covers the rotating motor 331 and the transmission gear 332.

[0029] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, specifically, the outer side of the movable toothed disc 342 is provided with a first gear 3421 meshing with the transmission gear 332, and the front end of the movable toothed disc 342 is provided with a second gear 3422; the fixed toothed disc 341 is sleeved inside the movable toothed disc 342, and the front end of the fixed toothed disc 341 is provided with a third gear 3411; the rear end of the locking disc 343 is provided with a fourth gear 3431 meshing with the second gear 3422 and the third gear 3411.

The utility model integrates the locking mechanism into the mounting cavity, fully utilizes the internal space of the cutter disc 31 and the cutter seat 32, and effectively compresses the overall volume of the turret multi-axis spindle head 3.

[0031] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, as a specific driving mode: the oil cylinder includes a cylinder body 351 and a piston 352, the piston 352 is fixed in the installation cavity, the cylinder body 351 is axially movably sleeved on the outside of the piston 352, and is fixedly connected to the locking plate 343.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the cutter head 31 is provided with a plurality of spindles 311 for installing the cutter, and is provided with a coupling 312 connected to one of the spindles 311, and the coupling 312 is preferably a cross-axis coupling. It also includes a second drive mechanism 36, which includes a spindle motor 361 and a transmission assembly, which is arranged in the installation cavity and is connected to the spindle motor 361 and the coupling 312. Specifically, a cavity 354 is provided in the middle of the piston 352, and the transmission assembly is arranged in the cavity 354, so that the piston 352 can also play the role of a core shaft, thereby making full use of the internal space of the piston 352, making the structure inside the turret more compact and reasonable.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the transmission assembly includes a first synchronous wheel 362, a second synchronous wheel 363 and a synchronous belt 364; the first synchronous wheel 362 is connected to the coupling 312, the second synchronous wheel 363 is connected to the spindle motor 361, and the synchronous belt 364 is arranged in the cavity 354 and is transmission-connected to the first synchronous wheel 362 and the second synchronous wheel 363. Specifically, the spindle motor 361 is installed at the rear side of the column 2, and is connected to the second synchronous wheel 363 through other transmission assemblies such as synchronous belt wheels, thereby making full use of the installation space of the column 2 and avoiding the knife seat 32 from being too large.
