[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0028] See also Figure 1-4 The CNC machine tool tailstock adjustable center includes a tailstock body 1, an adjustment mechanism 2 and a center mechanism 3. The adjustment mechanism 2 includes two vertical plates 201 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the tailstock body 1, a threaded rod 202 rotatably sleeved inside the vertical plate 201, and a guide column 204 fixedly connected to the surface of the vertical plate 201.

[0029] The two threaded rods 202 can be rotated in the corresponding vertical plates 201 respectively, so as to facilitate the subsequent adjustment of the positions of other components.

[0030] The outer surface of each guide column 204 is sleeved with a slidable slider 203 , and the top ends of the two sliders 203 are respectively threadedly connected to the outer surfaces of the two threaded rods 202 .

[0031] The ends of the two threaded rods 202 that are close to each other are fixedly connected with handles 208, and the outer surface of each handle 208 is coated with an anti-slip layer. By providing the handles 208, the contact area of ​​the rotating end of the threaded rod 202 can be increased, making it easier to rotate the threaded rod 202.

[0032] The ends of the two guide posts 204 that are away from each other are fixedly connected with a limiting plate 207, and the diameter of the limiting plate 207 is greater than the diameter of the guide post 204. By setting the limiting plate 207, the moving trajectory of the slider 203 can be limited to prevent the slider 203 from falling off during movement.

[0033] When the handle 208 is rotated, the corresponding threaded rod 202 is driven to rotate, so that the corresponding slider 203 moves along the corresponding guide column 204 .

[0034] The outer surface of each slider 203 is hinged with a connecting rod 205 through a pin shaft, and the upper surface of the tailstock body 1 is hinged with two supporting rods 206 through a pin shaft. The ends of the two supporting rods 206 close to each other are respectively hinged to the inner walls of the two connecting rods 205. The top mechanism 3 includes a positioning cylinder 301 and a sleeve 303. The top ends of the two connecting rods 205 are hinged to the bottom surface of the positioning cylinder 301.

[0035] When one of the two handles 208 is rotated, the corresponding threaded rod 202 will rotate, so that the corresponding slider 203 can move along the corresponding guide column 204. At this time, the height of one end of the positioning tube 301 can be changed by setting the connecting rod 205 and the support rod 206, while the height of the other end does not change, so that the effect of adjusting the inclination angle of the positioning tube 301 can be achieved.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the reason why the positioning cylinder 301 and the sleeve 303 are set to be in a longer state is that the device can adjust the extension distance of the sleeve 303 according to the processing conditions of the workpiece, so as to meet the processing requirements of different workpieces.

[0037] A positioning block 302 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the positioning cylinder 301, and a positioning groove 304 is provided on the outer surface of the sleeve 303. The sleeve 303 is slidably mounted on the positioning block 302 on the inner wall of the positioning cylinder 301 through the positioning groove 304. By setting the positioning block 302 and the positioning groove 304, the sleeve 303 can move stably in the inner wall of the positioning cylinder 301.

[0038] When the tilt angle of the positioning tube 301 changes, the tilt angle of the sleeve 303 slidably mounted on the inner wall thereof will also change.

[0039] A threaded column 307 is rotatably sleeved on the inner wall of the positioning cylinder 301 , one end of the threaded column 307 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 303 , and the other end of the threaded column 307 is fixedly connected to a handle 310 .

[0040] By providing the threaded column 307 , when the threaded column 307 rotates, the sleeve 303 can move along the positioning block 302 in the inner wall of the positioning tube 301 , and by providing the handle 310 , the threaded column 307 can be easily rotated.

[0041] The sleeve 303 is provided with a conical groove 305, and a detachable ejector body 306 is installed on the inner wall of the conical groove 305. The shape of the conical groove 305 is as follows: Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, by providing the tapered groove 305 , the ejector body 306 can be conveniently and stably mounted on the sleeve 303 .

[0042] In summary, by rotating one of the two handles 208 , the tilt angle of the positioning cylinder 301 can be changed, and the tilt angle of the sleeve 303 will also change accordingly, so that the tilt angle of the ejector body 306 installed in the conical groove 305 will also change.

[0043] By adjusting the inclination angle of the ejector body 306 and the extension length of the sleeve 303, more flexible processing operations can be achieved to meet the processing requirements of different workpieces.

[0044] Furthermore, when the workpiece needs to be processed through multiple processing steps, and different processing steps need to be performed at different angles, the above requirements can be met by rotating one of the two handles 208 .

[0045] Finally, by adjusting the tilt angle of the ejector body 306, the machine tool can process workpieces with more complex geometric shapes. For example, when processing certain holes or surfaces that require tilting, the operation can be performed more conveniently, effectively optimizing the operation and processing process.

[0046] A through hole 309 is provided inside the sleeve 303 , and the tapered groove 305 is connected to the threaded groove inside the sleeve 303 through the through hole 309 . The through hole 309 facilitates the disassembly of the ejector body 306 installed on the sleeve 303 .

[0047] One end of the threaded column 307 is fixedly connected with a push rod 308 . The length of the push rod 308 corresponds to the length of the tapered groove 305 . The diameter of the push rod 308 is smaller than the diameter of the through hole 309 .

[0048] By setting the ejector rod 308, when the threaded column 307 rotates, the sleeve 303 will move in the inner wall of the positioning tube 301, and the ejector rod 308 will extend into the conical groove 305 through the through hole 309, so as to facilitate the ejection and disassembly of the ejector body 306 in the conical groove 305.

[0049] The specific implementation process of the utility model is as follows: when in use, the tailstock body 1 is installed on the CNC machine tool, and then one end of the ejector body 306 is installed in the cone groove 305, and then the tilt angle of the ejector body 306 is adjusted according to the needs of the workpiece to be processed. When adjusting the tilt angle of the ejector body 306, it can be adjusted by rotating one of the two handles 208. Here, an example is given, and the specific operation requires the staff to select according to the on-site situation. When one of the handles 208 is rotated, the corresponding threaded rod 202 will be driven to rotate, so that the corresponding slider 203 moves along the guide column 204. When the guide column 204 is rotated, the corresponding slider 203 moves along the guide column 204. When the column 204 moves, the height of the corresponding end of the positioning cylinder 301 can be adjusted by the provided connecting rod 205 and the supporting rod 206, so as to achieve the effect of adjusting the inclination angle of the positioning cylinder 301, so that the inclination angle of the ejector body 306 can be adjusted. The staff can adjust the inclination angle of the ejector body 306 according to the on-site conditions, and then adjust the extension distance of the sleeve 303 and the ejector body 306 by turning the handle 310. In this way, by adjusting the position and inclination angle of the ejector body 306, the device can meet the processing requirements of a variety of different workpieces, thereby improving the practicality and flexibility of the device.

Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the contents of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
