Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of CNC lathe parts, in particular to a hydraulic clearance eliminating locking mechanism for a tailstock sleeve of a CNC lathe with an inclined bed. Background Art

[0002] The tailstock is an important component of a CNC lathe. Its function is as follows: when a CNC lathe processes long shaft parts with a relatively large length-diameter ratio, or parts with a relatively large dead weight, the parts are usually clamped in such a way that one end of the part is clamped on the chuck at the spindle end of the lathe, and the other end is passed through the center hole pre-machined on the end face of the part, and is supported by the center installed on the tailstock, and then the outer circle and other surfaces of the part are processed using a turning tool; this clamping method requires good clamping rigidity, and does not allow the parts to vibrate or resonate during the processing process, so as to avoid tool damage resulting in tool collision or defects such as vibration marks on the surface of the part.

[0003] When clamping parts in the above manner, the tailstock body is usually fixed on the lathe guide rail in some way, and the relative movement of the tailstock body and the tailstock sleeve is used to achieve the jacking action of the parts during clamping by using the center and the withdrawal action of the center after processing. Since the tailstock body is usually fixed, the tailstock sleeve can only make linear motion relative to the tailstock body sleeve hole under the action of external force (hydraulic, manual, pneumatic, etc.). The two mating parts can move relative to each other, and their mating surfaces (here are the outer circle of the tailstock body sleeve hole and the tailstock sleeve) must have a gap (the mating gap here is generally 0,025-0,035), and the existence of a gap means that the two parts may produce displacements of unknown direction and size or swing along the center line under the action of external forces, and this displacement or swing must be avoided as much as possible during the processing process, otherwise the clamping rigidity requirements will not be met.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a hydraulic anti-backlash locking mechanism for the tailstock sleeve of a slant bed CNC lathe to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0026] The working principle of the hydraulic anti-backlash locking mechanism of the tailstock sleeve of the inclined bed CNC lathe provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0027] In order to avoid the situation that the gap between the tailstock sleeve 2 and the sleeve hole 102 of the tailstock body of the existing inclined bed CNC lathe may cause the two parts to produce displacement of unknown direction and size or excessive swing along the center line under the action of external force, without changing the overall structure of the original tailstock body 1, a hydraulic cylinder is designed to automatically lock and loosen the tailstock sleeve 2 under the control of the machining program, so as to achieve the purpose of eliminating the matching gap between the sleeve hole 102 of the tailstock body and the tailstock body 1; the specific structure is as follows Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the hydraulic cylinder body 3 is fixed to the mounting boss 101 of the tailstock body 1 by four M6*60 hexagon socket screws, and the hydraulic cylinder piston 4 is fixed to the threaded hole of the locking block 5 by the M12 fine pitch thread thereon. The relative positions of the two parts are adjusted according to the needs of the locking stroke and then fixed by the M12 fine pitch nut 6; during operation, under the control of the machining program, the hydraulic system drives the hydraulic cylinder piston 4 to move left, driving the locking block 5 to move left, and the locking contact arc concave surface 501 of the locking block 5 is close to the outer circle of the tailstock sleeve 2, and the tailstock sleeve 2 is slightly displaced in the radial direction, eliminating the assembly gap between the tailstock body sleeve hole 102 and the outer circle of the tailstock sleeve 2, thereby achieving rigid fixation and ensuring the clamping rigidity of the parts ( Figure 4 As shown, it is in the locked state at this time); in order to prevent the locking block 5 from rotating along its central axis, causing its arc concave surface to be unable to fit the outer cylindrical surface of the tailstock sleeve 2, a groove is cut along the axis on the outer cylindrical surface of the locking block 5, and an M12 fine-thread set screw 7 is used to limit its circumferential position;

The locking block 5 can be driven to move laterally through the hydraulic cylinder body 3 and the hydraulic cylinder piston 4 so that the locking contact arc concave surface 501 on the locking block 5 contacts the tailstock sleeve 2, so as to reduce the gap between the tailstock sleeve 2 and the sleeve hole 102 of the tailstock body, which may cause the two parts to produce displacement of unknown direction and size or swing amplitude along the center line under the action of external force. The locking contact arc concave surface 501 can reduce the gap between the tailstock sleeve 2 and the tailstock body.
