Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a valve, in particular to a turret tool cooling water supply valve group. Background Art

[0002] The hydraulic turret is an important accessory for high-precision CNC machine tools. It is generally loaded with various types of tools such as turning, milling, and drilling. The rapid switching of different tools is completed by rotating the tool disc. When the turret clamps the tool to cut the workpiece, the temperature of the tool and the turret will rise, and a cooling mechanism is required to cool them down to reduce the temperature of the tool and the turret.

[0003] In the prior art, the cooling device of the turret includes a cutter disc, a turret housing and a tool cooling water supply assembly. The cutter disc rotates relative to the turret housing. The cutter disc is provided with a cooling water channel. The outlet of the cooling water channel faces the processing tool. A cutter disc sealing ring is fixedly provided on the side of the cutter disc close to the turret housing. A water inlet channel for conveying cooling water is provided in the turret housing. A brass water pipe is provided in the tool cooling water supply assembly. The brass water pipe is used to connect the water inlet channel with the cooling water channel, and a sealing ring at the end of the brass water pipe realizes sealing with the cutter disc sealing ring.

[0004] Existing turret cooling has the following disadvantages:

[0005] 1. The problem of contact wear between the cutter disc and the tool cooling water supply assembly. The turrets on the market now all have contact seals. The general design scheme is to design a spring in the tool cooling water supply assembly. Through the pressure of the spring, the brass water pipe in the middle of the tool cooling water supply assembly is pressed, and the spring pressure always presses the water pipe to the cutter disc to tightly connect. When the cutter disc performs the tool change action, the spring pressure always forces the water pipe of the tool cooling water supply assembly to be tightly pressed on the disc. The cutter disc rotates when changing the tool, which will cause the seal ring at the end of the brass water pipe to wear. If this continues for a long time, the seal ring at the end of the brass water pipe will need to be replaced every few months, otherwise it will leak.

[0006] 2. During the operation of the turret, the water inlet channel of the cutter disc is usually perpendicular to the brass water pipe. When the water inlet pressure is high or the spring pressure is insufficient, the brass water pipe will rotate in a circle, causing the sealing ring at the end of the brass water pipe to rub against the end face of the rotating sealing disk, resulting in a mismatch with the cutter disc, causing the cooling water to leak out and cause insufficient pressure, making it difficult to cool the cutter disc and the tool.

[0007] 3. Since the turrets on the market are basically designed with springs, if the turret pressure is too low, it is easy to cause insufficient cooling of the tool, which will aggravate tool wear. If the pressure is too high, it will offset the pressure given to the water pipe contact surface by the spring, resulting in serious pressure relief, insufficient sealing, and serious water leakage.

[0008] 4. Since the turrets on the market are basically designed with springs, they cannot use high-pressure water supply, such as the 50-70Kg high-pressure water supply required by internal energy tools and drills. Because the high pressure generated by the high-pressure pump exceeds the sealing pressure given by the spring, it will directly cause the water pipe and the cutter disc to separate directly under high pressure, causing serious water leakage, and it is impossible to use internal cooling tools and drills that require high-pressure water supply.

[0034] The following is a detailed description of the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0035] See also Figure 1-Figure 9 The utility model provides a turret tool cooling water supply valve group, which is used for high-pressure water supply cooling of tools on the turret, and includes a valve body 1, a piston rod 3 and a sealing ring 5.

[0036] The valve body 1 is used as a support and mounting carrier for installing the piston rod 3. The valve body is a rectangular parallelepiped as a whole, and a mounting hole is provided on the valve body 1 for installing it on the turret frame; a sliding cavity 10a and a liquid inlet channel 10b are formed in the valve body 1, and the liquid inlet channel 10b is arranged at the tail end of the sliding cavity 10a; in the present application, a stepped hole is formed in the valve body 1, and a front plug 2 is provided at the end of the large hole of the stepped hole to form a sliding cavity 10a, and oil ports are provided at both ends of the sliding cavity 10a for driving the axial movement of the piston rod; the small hole in the stepped hole serves as the liquid inlet channel 10b.

[0039] The sealing ring 5 is in an annular shape as a whole and is arranged between the sliding cavity 10a and the liquid inlet channel 10b. In the present embodiment, it is arranged on the step surface between the sliding cavity 10a and the liquid inlet channel 10b and can withstand the axial force.

[0041] A sealing seat 4 is provided at the end of the piston rod 3. The sealing seat 4 is cylindrical and is connected to the piston rod 3 by threads. A sealing surface is formed at the end of the sealing seat 4 for fitting in contact with the turret and connected to the cooling pipeline. Through holes are penetrated at both ends of the sealing seat 4 for outputting the coolant in the liquid outlet channel 30 to the cooling pipeline of the turret, thereby cooling the tool of the turret.

[0042] The working principle of the utility model turret tool cooling water supply valve group is described below:

[0043] Separation locking:

[0044] The oil circuit in this application is connected in parallel with the locking oil circuit of the turret, and drives the piston rod to move forward (closely connected with the turret sealing surface) or backward (separated from the close contact with the turret sealing surface, and at the same time, the working surface at its rear end contacts the main sealing surface to achieve sealing and block water ingress) through the oil port on the valve body.

[0045] Coolant supply:

[0046] A liquid inlet is provided on the valve body, which is connected to the turret tool cooling water pipeline so that the tool cooling water can enter the valve body. A piston rod is slidably mounted in the valve body, and a liquid outlet channel is opened in the center of the piston rod. A first liquid inlet hole is evenly distributed circumferentially on the cylindrical protrusion at the rear end of the piston rod, which can guide the coolant entering the valve body. A sealing seat is provided on the end of the piston rod, which is connected to the piston rod through a thread. The threaded connection can realize high-pressure delivery of the coolant. If the threaded connection is not used, there is a risk of being washed away by high-pressure water under the action of high pressure. The coolant entering the center of the piston rod is closely contacted with the cutter disc through the sealing seat, and is transmitted into the tool cooling water pipeline designed in the cutter disc, thereby completing the transmission of the tool cooling water.

[0047] At the same time, when the high-pressure coolant enters the liquid inlet area through the liquid inlet channel, since the rear end of the piston rod is provided with a working surface, and the first liquid inlet hole provided on the cylindrical protrusion is smaller, it is blocked by the sealing ring (this sealing ring is a special sealing ring for high pressure) in the forward direction. The greater the water pressure of the high-pressure cooling water, the greater the sealing pressure and the stronger the sealing ability. It will accumulate this time, while the high-pressure pump has been maintaining the high-pressure water supply to the vehicle, which will apply the pressure of the high-pressure water to the piston rod, causing the piston rod to have a forward movement tendency, thereby playing a pressurizing effect, and thereby enhancing the sealing effect of the sealing seat and the end face of the cutter disc.

[0048] The utility model turret tool cooling water supply valve group has the following advantages:

[0049] It adopts modular design, with high integration and convenient disassembly and assembly. It also integrates hydraulic pressure, cooling water, etc. It adopts a linkage design of separation and locking with the turret to achieve zero wear on the separation contact water pipe surface and the contact sealing surface of the cutter disc. It shares a set of hydraulic pipelines with the turret, which is simple and does not increase additional use costs. It adopts hydraulic design to solve problems such as spring rust or insufficient spring pressure. It can supply high pressure water, which solves the problems that traditional mechanisms cannot use high pressure water supply and cannot use internal cooling tools and drill bits. When using high pressure water supply, it can make the piston rod have a tendency to move forward, which has a pressurizing effect, making it compatible with The contact surface of the cutter disc is more tightly sealed; when the tool change action is executed, the valve group is separated from the cutter disc, and the valve group will automatically shut down the high-pressure water supply at the same time without the need for host computer control; no matter high-pressure or low-pressure water supply, real-time direct water supply is achieved after the tool change is completed, without waiting for the water supply equipment to start and then supply water, and the liquid supply rate is fast, which greatly saves time, reduces tool wear, and also reduces the extension of processing time caused by waiting for water supply; the utility model turret tool cooling water supply valve group has a compact structure, is easy to install, and responds quickly, can greatly improve the reliability of the water supply to the turret, and is stable and reliable to use and has a long service life.

[0050] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
