Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automation equipment, in particular to an adjustable four-axis gantry screw moving module. Background Art

[0002] Automation technology is widely used in industry, agriculture, military, scientific research, transportation, commerce, medical care, services and family. In the production and processing of dispensing and soldering, in order to improve production efficiency and improve processing quality, automated equipment is often used for processing. Among them, the four-axis gantry is an indispensable transfer device. The use of automation technology can not only liberate people from heavy physical labor, part of mental labor and harsh and dangerous working environment, but also expand the function of human organs, greatly improve labor productivity, and enhance human ability to understand and transform the world.

[0003] During the operation of the four-axis gantry module, the X-axis track moves repeatedly on the Y-axis track, which can easily cause greater wear on the Y-axis guide rail over a long period of time, thereby reducing the accuracy of the guide rail and increasing the sense of sluggish movement. To address the above problems, we have launched an adjustable four-axis gantry screw moving module. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model discloses an adjustable four-axis gantry screw moving module, in which an X-axis track repeatedly moves on a Y-axis track, which easily causes greater wear of the Y-axis guide rail over a long period of time, thereby reducing the accuracy of the guide rail and increasing the technical problem of sluggish movement.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] An adjustable four-axis gantry screw moving module comprises two groups of Y-axis tracks, a first oil storage box is installed at the lower end of the Y-axis track, slide grooves are opened at the left and right ends of the Y-axis track, and oil filling mechanisms are arranged at the left and right ends of the first oil storage box, and the oil filling mechanism is used to add oil to the slide groove; the oil filling mechanism comprises a second oil storage box fixed at the middle of the left and right ends of the first oil storage box, an oil inlet pipe is installed at the upper end of the second oil storage box, a hollow cylinder is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second oil storage box, a piston is installed at the upper end of the hollow cylinder, an arc block is connected to the upper end of the piston, and a spring is connected between the arc block and the hollow cylinder.

[0007] A further technical solution is that an air outlet is provided at the lower end of the hollow cylinder, a first sealing ball is arranged at the lower end of the air outlet, an air inlet is provided on the side of the hollow cylinder away from the first oil storage box, a second sealing ball is arranged on the side of the air inlet close to the inside of the hollow cylinder, and the second sealing ball is equidistantly connected to the outer surface of the first sealing ball with elastic ropes.

[0008] By setting the first sealing ball and the second sealing ball and connecting the outer surfaces with elastic ropes, the first sealing ball and the second sealing ball are always in close contact with the air hole to seal it. When the internal pressure of the hollow cylinder increases, the air pressure will push the first sealing ball open and the gas will be discharged from the air outlet. When the negative pressure of the hollow cylinder increases, the external air will push the second sealing ring open from the air inlet and enter the hollow cylinder, thereby achieving the effect of gas being discharged from the air outlet and air being taken in from the air inlet.

[0009] A further technical solution is that a slide plate is slidably connected inside the slide groove, arc shifting blocks are connected to the left and right ends of the slide plate, and a plurality of groups of liquid outlet holes are equidistantly arranged at the lower end of the slide groove.

[0010] By setting the arc shift block, the slide plate contacts the oil injection mechanism during the movement of the slide plate along the Y-axis track, achieving the effect of automatic oil injection. At the same time, a liquid outlet hole is opened at the lower end of the slide groove to facilitate the discharge of excess oil in the slide groove.

[0011] According to a further technical solution, the upper end of the slide plate is fixedly connected to an X-axis track, and the front side of the X-axis track is slidably connected to a Z-axis track.

[0012] By setting the slide plate, the X-axis track is caused to move forward and backward on the Y-axis track, and the Z-axis track is caused to move left and right on the X-axis track.

[0013] According to a further technical solution, a filter screen is slidably connected to the upper end of the first oil storage box, and through holes are provided at the left and right ends of the first oil storage box.

[0014] By setting a filter net, impurities in the refluxed oil can be filtered to facilitate oil recycling.

[0015] According to a further technical solution, a partition is rotatably connected to the opening of the through hole, a knob shaft is fixedly connected to the front side of the partition, and rubber is provided at the upper and lower ends of the partition.

[0016] The knob shaft is set to drive the partition to rotate, so as to realize the closing and opening of the through hole. During the closing process of the through hole, the rubber at the upper and lower ends of the partition plays a sealing effect.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, it has the following improvements and advantages:

[0018] The arc block is squeezed by the arc shifting block to cause the piston to move downward in the hollow cylinder, thereby increasing the pressure in the hollow cylinder. After the airflow is opened by the air outlet hole blocked by the first sealing ball and enters the second oil storage box, the gas carries the oil from the oil inlet pipe into the slide groove, thereby improving the lubrication effect between the slide groove and the slide plate, reducing the wear rate between them, and ensuring the smoothness of the displacement of the X-axis track on the Y-axis track.

[0019] The excess oil in the slide groove is introduced into the first oil storage box for storage through the liquid outlet hole, the residue inside the oil is filtered by the filter net, and the knob shaft is used to drive the partition to open the through hole, and the oil stored in the first oil storage box flows into the second oil storage box for oil filling treatment, thereby realizing oil recycling and reducing the waste of oil resources.

[0020] Other features and advantages of the present invention will be described in detail in the subsequent specific implementation section. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0030] The utility model discloses an adjustable four-axis gantry screw rod moving module which is mainly used for the scene of refueling during the four-axis gantry machining operation.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 , an adjustable four-axis gantry screw moving module, including two groups of Y-axis rails 1, a first oil storage box 2 is installed at the lower end of the Y-axis rail 1, and a slide groove 4 is opened at the left and right ends of the Y-axis rail 1. The left and right ends of the first oil storage box 2 are provided with an oil filling mechanism 3, and the oil filling mechanism 3 is used to add oil to the slide groove 4; the oil filling mechanism 3 includes a second oil storage box 301 fixed to the middle of the left and right ends of the first oil storage box 2, an oil inlet pipe 302 is installed at the upper end of the second oil storage box 301, and a hollow cylinder 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second oil storage box 301 03, a piston 304 is installed at the upper end of the hollow cylinder 303, an arc block 305 is connected to the upper end of the piston 304, a spring 306 is connected between the arc block 305 and the hollow cylinder 303, an air outlet 307 is opened at the lower end of the hollow cylinder 303, a slide plate 5 is slidably connected inside the slide groove 4, arc blocks 6 are connected to the left and right ends of the slide plate 5, an X-axis track 7 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the slide plate 5, and the front side of the X-axis track 7 is slidably connected to the Z-axis track 8, and a first sealing ball 308 is arranged at the lower end of the air outlet 307;

[0032] In this embodiment, when the slide plate 5 and the X-axis track 7 are displaced on the slide groove 4 in the Y-axis track 1, the arc blocks 6 provided at the left and right ends of the slide plate 5 contact the arc block 305. Since the contact surfaces of the arc block 6 and the arc block 305 are both arc surfaces, the arc block 305 is squeezed to move downward, so that the piston 304 moves downward in the hollow cylinder 303, and the spring 306 contracts. At this time, the air pressure inside the hollow cylinder 303 increases, and the increased air pressure will be flushed by the outlet hole 307 blocked by the first sealing ball 308. The gas enters the second oil storage box 301 from the air outlet 307. After the airflow of the hollow cylinder 303 is discharged, the internal air pressure is normal, and the first sealing ball 308 automatically resets to seal the air outlet 307. At this time, the internal pressure of the second oil storage box 301 increases, and the excess gas carries the oil inside the second oil storage box 301 from the oil inlet pipe 302 into the slide groove 4, thereby improving the lubrication effect between the slide groove 4 and the slide plate 5, reducing the wear rate between them, and ensuring the smoothness of the displacement of the X-axis track 7 on the Y-axis track 1.

[0033] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment, an air inlet hole 3010 is provided on a side of the hollow cylinder 303 away from the first oil storage box 2, and a second sealing ball 3011 is provided on a side of the air inlet hole 3010 close to the inside of the hollow cylinder 303, and an elastic rope 309 is evenly connected to the outer surface of the second sealing ball 3011 and the first sealing ball 308;

[0034] Supplementary explanation: After the piston 304 moves downward to cause the squeezed air flow inside the hollow cylinder 303 to be discharged from the air outlet 307, the arc shift block 6 contacts and separates from the arc block 305, and the piston 304 is reset by the upward displacement of the spring 306. The internal negative pressure of the hollow cylinder 303 increases due to the upward displacement of the piston 304, and the external air enters the hollow cylinder 303 through the air inlet 3010, and the blocked second sealing ball 3011 is flushed open. After the piston 304 is completely reset, the internal pressure of the hollow cylinder 303 returns to normal, and the second sealing ball 3011 re-blocks the air inlet 3010 under the tension of the elastic rope 309, thereby preventing gas from being extracted from the second oil storage box 301 during the reset of the piston 304 and preventing oil reflux in the oil inlet pipe 302.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In a preferred embodiment, a filter screen 10 is slidably connected to the upper end of the first oil storage box 2, through holes 11 are provided at the left and right ends of the first oil storage box 2, a partition 12 is rotatably connected to the opening of the through hole 11, a knob shaft 14 is fixedly connected to the front side of the partition 12, rubber 13 is provided at the upper and lower ends of the partition 12, and a plurality of groups of liquid outlet holes 9 are equidistantly provided at the lower end of the inner part of the slide 4;

[0036] In this embodiment: since the slide plate 5 moves repeatedly in the Y-axis track 1, repeated oil injection will occur. After the oil is injected into the slide groove 4, the excess oil flows into the first oil storage box 2 through the liquid outlet 9 for storage, and the filter 10 filters the residue inside the oil. After the oil in the second oil storage box 301 is used up, the partition plate 12 is driven to rotate by rotating the knob shaft 14, so that the through hole 11 is opened, and the oil stored in the first oil storage box 2 flows into the second oil storage box 301 to be injected with oil. After the oil in the second oil storage box 301 is added to a certain amount, the partition plate 12 is driven to recover by rotating the knob shaft 14, and the rubber 13 on the outside of the partition plate 12 is squeezed against the inner wall of the through hole 11 to form a sealing effect, ensuring that the second oil storage box 301 is in a sealed state, so that the internal pressure of the second oil storage box 301 increases, and the airflow is discharged from the oil inlet pipe 302, thereby realizing the oil recycling and reducing the waste of oil resources.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, when the slide plate 5 and the X-axis track 7 move on the slide groove 4 in the Y-axis track 1, the arc blocks 6 set at the left and right ends of the slide plate 5 contact the arc block 305. Since the contact surfaces of the arc block 6 and the arc block 305 are both arc surfaces, the arc block 305 is squeezed to move downward, causing the piston 304 to move downward in the hollow cylinder 303, and the spring 306 contracts. At this time, the air pressure inside the hollow cylinder 303 increases, and the increased air pressure enters the air outlet 307 blocked by the first sealing ball 308. The gas flows out of the air outlet 307 into the second oil storage box 301. After the airflow of the hollow cylinder 303 is discharged, the internal air pressure is normal, and the first sealing ball 308 automatically resets to seal the air outlet 307. At this time, the internal pressure of the second oil storage box 301 increases, and the excess gas carries the oil inside the second oil storage box 301 from the oil inlet pipe 302 into the inside of the slide groove 4, thereby improving the lubrication effect between the slide groove 4 and the slide plate 5, reducing the wear rate between them, and ensuring the smoothness of the displacement of the X-axis track 7 on the Y-axis track 1.
