AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Due to uneven stress on the spindle box in the vertical milling center, the connecting structure of the spindle box and the vertical axis direction may deform, causing the spindle box to deviate or detach from the track, affecting the machining accuracy.

Method used

By forming a slope saddle on the bed base and setting a horizontal axis guide rail on its slope top and bottom, the bottom of the sliding pillow cooperates with the slope saddle to form a backward bottom surface, and the center of gravity of the sliding pillow is shifted backward. Avoid leaning forward. At the same time, the load-bearing beam on the suspended side of the spindle box is fixed and connected to the load-bearing beam on the rear pillow surface of the sliding pillow. When the spindle box moves along the vertical axis direction of the front pillow surface of the sliding pillow, the load-bearing beam drives the vertical axis of the sliding pillow surface of the sliding pillow surface of the sliding pillow surface. The directional guide rails move simultaneously to provide support and balance the front and rear sides of the spindle box.

Benefits of technology

By balancing the stress on both sides of the spindle box, avoiding structural deformation caused by concentrated stress on one side, ensuring the stability and machining accuracy of the spindle box, it is suitable for the processing of complex and precise parts.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of milling centers, in particular to a vertical milling center. Background Art

[0002] Milling is a mechanical processing method that uses a milling cutter as a tool to process the surface of an object. With the development of science and technology and the improvement of the overall level of manufacturing, companies have begun to use milling centers for milling operations to improve operating efficiency. Milling centers can complete milling, boring, drilling, tapping and cutting threads, and are mainly suitable for processing complex parts such as plates, discs, molds and small shells.

[0003] The height direction or vertical axis direction of the vertical milling center is perpendicular to the workbench. The spindle box is generally connected to the vertical axis guide rail extending along the vertical axis by sliding, and is hung on the side of the structure such as the slide or column on which the vertical axis guide rail is mounted. It is driven by a screw motor to move up and down along the side, while the other side of the spindle box away from it is not supported by any load-bearing structure and is suspended above the workbench. As the use time of the vertical milling center increases, the uneven force on the spindle box may cause the connection structure between the spindle box and the vertical axis guide rail to deform. The concentrated force on one side can easily cause the spindle box to deviate or leave the track, and shift in the vertical axis direction, affecting the processing accuracy. For various complex precision parts that are often used, the quality impact caused cannot be ignored. Utility Model Content
