Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vertical lathes, in particular to an automatic tool setting device for vertical lathes. Background Art

[0002] The difference between a vertical lathe and an ordinary lathe is that its spindle is vertical, which is equivalent to standing an ordinary lathe upright. Since its workbench is in a horizontal position, it is suitable for processing heavy parts with large diameter and short length. When using a vertical lathe, it is necessary to pre-align the tool head and the workpiece to ensure the quality of processing. The purpose of tool alignment is to determine the position of the program origin in the machine tool coordinate system. The tool alignment point can be set on the part, on the fixture or on the machine tool. When setting the tool, the tool alignment point should coincide with the tool position point.

[0003] When setting the tool, the staff first measures the cutting position of the workpiece, and then adjusts the position of the tool head. When the tool head position is adjusted, the staff can turn on the control device of the vertical lathe and then process the workpiece.

[0004] The traditional vertical lathe has complicated steps when performing tool setting work, which leads to a longer overall operation time, low work efficiency and high operation difficulty. Once the tool setting is inaccurate, it will cause damage to the tool head or workpiece, which brings inconvenience to the staff. Utility Model Content

[0023] In the specific implementation process, it is worth pointing out that the turntable 4 can fix the workpiece and drive the workpiece to rotate at the same time. It can be understood that the turntable 4 provided in this embodiment is not all embodiments. The specific structure for fixing the workpiece can be reasonably designed according to actual conditions. The processing equipment 7 can move along the inner wall of the limit plate 8, and then the position of the cutter head 12 can be changed. The turntable 4 and the processing equipment 7 are both existing well-known technologies and are not the main technical features of this case. Therefore, no excessive elaboration is made. The models of the laser rangefinder 10 and the detection camera 9 are not specifically limited, and they can meet the use requirements. The laser rangefinder 10 can detect the distance between the cutter head 12 and the workpiece, and the detection camera 9 can detect the position of the workpiece on the turntable 4, and then the processor 6 can control the adjustment device 3 and the adjustment device 2 to change the position of the cutter head 12, so as to complete the tool alignment work between the cutter head 12 and the workpiece;

[0026] Furthermore, the top of the turntable 4 is processed with a scale 13;

[0027] In the specific implementation process, it is worth pointing out that the design of the scale 13 can assist the work of the detection camera 9, so that the detection camera 9 can monitor the position of the workpiece and the turntable 4 more accurately;

[0028] Specifically, when using the automatic tool setting device for a vertical lathe, the staff first installs the workpiece on the top of the turntable 4, and then turns on the external power supply of the detection camera 9 and the laser rangefinder 10. At this time, the position of the workpiece and the tool head 12 can be detected, and then the detection data is transmitted to the processor 6 for data processing, and then the position of the tool head 12 is changed by the adjustment device 3 and the adjustment device 2, thereby realizing automatic tool setting.

[0029] Embodiment 2: By Figure 1 , 2 As can be seen from Figures 4 and 5, the adjustment device 3 includes: two support plates 302, which are respectively installed on both sides of the top of the base 1; two electric push rods 301, the model of the electric push rods 301 is TG-700, which are respectively detachably connected to the top of the inner walls of the two support plates 302; two first sliders 303, which are respectively detachably connected to the output ends of the two electric push rods 301, and are respectively slidably engaged with the inner walls of the two support plates 302; wherein the electric push rods 301 can drive the adjustment device 2 to move through the first sliders 303;

[0030] In the specific implementation process, it is worth pointing out that the electric push rod 301 can drive the position of the adjustment device 2 through the first slider 303, thereby changing the position height of the component of the cutter head 12;

[0031] Specifically, based on the above-mentioned embodiment 1, when the position height of the cutter head 12 needs to be changed, the processor 6 can control the electric push rod 301 to start working, and then the electric push rod 301 can drive the first slider 303 to slide along the inner wall of the support plate 302. At the same time, the adjusting device 2 moves with the first slider 303, and then the processing equipment 7 and other components can be driven to move, thereby changing the position height of the cutter head 12.

[0032] Embodiment 3: By Figure 1 , 2 As can be seen from Figures 4 and 5, the adjusting device 2 includes: a horizontal plate 201, which is installed on the outer walls of the two first sliders 303; a servo motor 203, the model of which is ECMA-E11320RS, which is detachably connected to the outer wall of one side of the horizontal plate 201; a threaded rod 202, which is detachably connected to the output end of the servo motor 203 and is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the horizontal plate 201 through a bearing; a second slider 204, which is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded rod 202 and is slidably engaged with the inner wall of the horizontal plate 201, and the outer wall of the second slider 204 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the processing equipment 7; wherein the servo motor 203 can drive the second slider 204 to move along the inner wall of the horizontal plate 201 through the threaded rod 202, thereby changing the position of the cutter head 12;

[0034] Specifically, based on the above-mentioned embodiments one and two, when the position of both sides of the cutter head 12 needs to be changed, the processor 6 controls the servo motor 203 to start working. At this time, the servo motor 203 starts to drive the threaded rod 202 to rotate. As the threaded rod 202 rotates, the second slider 204 can be driven to move along the inner wall of the horizontal plate 201. At the same time, the second slider 204 can drive the limit plate 8 to move, thereby changing the position of the cutter head 12.
