[0022] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, in this example, a high-precision four-axis machining welding motion platform includes a base 1. The base 1 has a structure such as a marble platform 11 fixed on a mounting frame 10. The mounting frame is made of square steel. Foot cups can be installed at the four corners of the mounting frame 10. The foot cups can be universal or fixed. The foot cups can be made of carbon steel galvanized foot cups, stainless steel foot cups, nylon foot cups, shock-absorbing foot cups, etc. The foot cups should be selected according to the load-bearing capacity and the use environment.

[0025] In this example, a four-axis shifting mechanism is installed on the base 1. Specifically, the shifting mechanism includes an XY shifting assembly and a cradle turntable 5. The cradle turntable is installed at the moving end of the XY shifting assembly.

[0026] In this example, the XY shift assembly is a linear motor module type. Specifically, the XY shift assembly includes a connected X-direction shift mechanism 2 and a Y-direction shift mechanism 3. The X-direction shift mechanism, that is, its moving end, shifts along the X direction, and the Y-direction shift mechanism, that is, its moving end, shifts along the Y direction. In this example, the X-direction shift mechanism 2 is installed on a marble platform 11, and the Y-direction shift mechanism 3 is placed at the moving end of the X-direction shift mechanism 2, and the cradle turntable 5 is placed at the moving end of the Y-direction shift mechanism 3.

[0027] The X-axis shifting mechanism and the Y-axis shifting mechanism are both direct drive motor module types, such as the X-axis shifting mechanism and the Y-axis shifting mechanism both include a linear motor module, a dust cover, a dust side plate, an end plate, and a slide seat. The slide seat 34 includes a fixed plate 341 and a connecting plate 342. The Y-axis shifting mechanism is installed on the slide seat of the X-axis shifting mechanism.

[0028] Take the Y-axis shift mechanism as an example. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the dust cover plate 31, the dust side plate 33 and the end plate 32 form a box body, and the motor assembly and the guide rail assembly in the linear motor module are all in the box body cavity, such as being directly installed on the slide seat in the X-axis shift mechanism.

[0029] The slide in the linear motor module is connected to the fixed plate 341 outside the box body through the connecting plate 342. There is a gap between the top of the dustproof side plate 33 and the bottom of the dustproof cover plate 31. The part of the connecting plate 342 in the box cavity is fixed to the slide in the linear motor module below. The two ends of the connecting plate 342 extend out of the gap and are fixed to the two ends of the fixed plate 341. The slide seat is overall in the shape of an opening, and the dustproof cover plate 31 passes through the cavity of the slide seat 34.

[0030] In this example, in order to reduce the size of the gap, a slide groove 343 is formed at the bottom surface of the end of the connecting plate 342, and the upper part of the dustproof side plate is located in the slide groove and slides in the groove.

[0031] In this example, the linear motor module includes a grating encoder. For example, the grating scale in the grating encoder is fixed on the bottom wall of the box cavity, and the corresponding reading head is fixed to the slide, which helps to improve the movement accuracy.

[0032] In addition, an anti-collision platform 35 may be installed at the end plate 32 to provide buffering for the anti-collision platform, and the anti-collision platform may be purchased freely from the market.

[0033] In this example, the cradle turntable 5 includes a mounting seat 52, a first rotation drive mechanism 51, and a second rotation drive mechanism 53. Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the mounting seat 52 is composed of two seat bodies, and the two seat bodies are fixed at intervals on the top surface of the slide 34 in the Y-axis shift mechanism, that is, on the fixed plate. A first rotary drive mechanism 51 is installed on one of the seat bodies, such as a DDR rotary motor with a grating encoder type, which has high precision. A support frame 54 is installed at the output end of the first rotary drive mechanism 51, and a second rotary drive mechanism 53 is installed on the support frame 54, which is also such as a DDR rotary motor with a grating encoder type. The other end of the support frame is rotatably connected to the adjacent seat body through a deep groove bearing.

[0034] The processing table 4 is fixed at the output end of the second rotary drive mechanism 53, and the rotation center lines of the first rotary drive mechanism 51 and the second rotary drive mechanism 53 are not parallel. For example, the first rotary drive mechanism is arranged along the X direction, and the corresponding rotation center line extends along the X direction. When the support frame is in a horizontal state, the second rotary drive mechanism is arranged on the support frame along the Z direction.

[0035] This four-axis platform is convenient for three-dimensional and curved surface welding, etc. The linear motor module-type XY shift component has high movement accuracy. The rotary drive mechanism in the cradle turntable is a DDR rotary motor type, which also has the advantages of high movement accuracy and high welding accuracy.

[0036] The above are only preferred implementations of the utility model. The protection scope of the utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the idea of ​​the utility model belong to the protection scope of the utility model. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, some improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the utility model should also be regarded as the protection scope of the utility model.
