[0034] like Figure 1-6 The example shown is an embodiment provided by the utility model.

[0035] The utility model embodiment provides a five-axis turntable, including: a base 1, a turntable 2 and a workpiece chuck 3; the base 1 is provided with a main support platform 10 and a secondary support platform 11 alternately, the turntable 2 is rotatably mounted between the main support platform 10 and the secondary support platform 11, the main support platform 10 is provided with a roller cam reducer 4 and a four-axis servo motor 5 for driving the roller cam reducer 4, the roller cam reducer 4 is fixedly connected to the end of the turntable 2, driving the turntable 2 to tilt and swing between the main support platform 10 and the secondary support platform 11; a harmonic reducer 6 and a five-axis servo motor 7 for driving the harmonic reducer 6 are provided inside the turntable 2; the workpiece chuck 3 is rotatably installed on the top of the connecting seat 20, and the workpiece chuck 3 is fixedly connected to the harmonic reducer 6, and the workpiece chuck 3 is driven to rotate by the harmonic reducer 6.

[0036] Specifically, the five-axis turntable is installed on a machine tool for use, and a fixture is installed through the workpiece chuck 3 or the workpiece is directly installed, so that the machine tool can be processed. The five-axis servo motor 7 and the four-axis servo motor 5 are connected to the CNC center of the machine tool through wires, and the five-axis servo motor 7 and the four-axis servo motor 5 are controlled by the CNC center to realize the tilting and swinging of the turntable 2 and the rotation of the workpiece chuck 3 on the turntable 2. The roller cam reducer 4 can make the tilting and swinging of the turntable 2 more efficient, and in order to reduce the volume of the turntable 2, a harmonic reducer 6 is installed in the turntable 2, while ensuring that the output torque remains unchanged, it also has a smaller volume and weight, thereby reducing the volume of the turntable 2 and the installation space of the base 1, thereby meeting the lightweight requirements of the five-axis turntable, so that the five-axis turntable can be used on more types of machine tools, solving the problem of poor practicality caused by the large volume and heavy weight of the traditional five-axis turntable.

[0037] In this embodiment, a plurality of T-shaped external grooves 31 and a plurality of workpiece connecting holes 30 may be provided on the workpiece chuck 3. The T-shaped external grooves 31 may be used to install a fixture, and the workpiece may be clamped by the external fixture to facilitate the machine tool to process the workpiece. For special workpieces, they may be directly fixed through the workpiece connecting holes 30 on the workpiece chuck 3. The workpiece chuck 3 of this embodiment provides a variety of workpiece clamping options, which is more practical.

[0038] See attached Figure 2 and attached Figure 4 The turntable 2 includes a connecting seat 20 and a sleeve 21; the connecting seat 20 includes a main connecting disk 202 and a secondary connecting section 203, and the main connecting disk 202 is provided with a plurality of bolt mounting holes for connecting with the roller cam reducer 4; the secondary connecting section 203 is used for rotationally connecting with the secondary support platform 11; a protruding structure is provided in the middle of the connecting disk, and the protruding structure is used for positioning with the roller cam reducer 4, and finally the connecting disk and the roller cam reducer 4 are locked by tightening bolts; a bearing 110 connected to the secondary connecting section 203 is provided on the secondary support platform 11, so that the secondary connecting section 203 can rotate compared with the secondary support platform 11. An upper mounting groove 200 and a lower mounting groove 201 are provided in the middle of the connecting seat 20, which are connected from top to bottom. The upper mounting groove 200 is used to fix the harmonic reducer 6, and the lower mounting groove 201 is used to fix the five-axis servo motor 7, and the output shaft of the five-axis servo motor 7 is fixedly connected to the harmonic reducer 6; the sleeve 21 is installed at the bottom of the connecting seat 20 and covers the lower mounting groove 201. Specifically, the upper mounting groove 200 is connected with the middle part of the lower mounting groove 201, so that the output shaft of the five-axis servo motor 7 can be passed through and fixedly connected with the harmonic reducer 6. The connecting seat 20 is provided with an annular groove 205 around the notch of the lower mounting groove 201. The annular groove 205 is used to place a sealing rubber ring (not shown in the drawings). The sealing rubber ring can be in the form of a rubber ring or a multi-end rubber strip. When the sleeve 21 is connected to the connecting seat 20, the end wall of the sleeve 21 presses the sealing rubber ring, so that the sleeve 21 is connected to the bottom of the connecting seat 20, and the external liquid cannot enter the interior of the connecting seat 20, thereby preventing the five-axis servo motor 7 from being soaked in liquid, and further improving the structural airtightness and waterproof effect of the five-axis turntable.

[0039] In order to further improve the waterproof effect of the five-axis turntable, the base 1 also includes a waterproof shell 12, which is used to cover the auxiliary support platform 11. The waterproof shell 12 can prevent the bearing 110 in the auxiliary support platform 11 from being soaked in external liquid, thereby increasing the service life of the bearing 110.

[0040] See attached Figure 3 and attached Figure 4A wiring hole 204 is provided inside the secondary connecting section 203, and the wiring hole 204 connects the lower mounting groove 201 and the end of the secondary connecting section 203, so that the wires of the five-axis servo motor 7 can pass through the wiring hole 204 to the waterproof shell 12. Specifically, the wiring hole 204 is tilted toward the lower mounting groove 201, and the wires of the five-axis servo motor 7 can pass through the secondary connecting section 203 and be placed in the waterproof shell 12 through the wiring hole 204, so that the wires of the five-axis servo motor 7 will not interfere with the tilting and swinging of the turntable 2, and the wiring hole 204 is tilted, so that when the wires are guided into the wiring hole 204 by the lower mounting groove 201, the wires will not have a large fold angle, thereby avoiding the situation where the wires are bent for a long time, resulting in a reduction in service life and transmission efficiency.

[0041] In order to ensure that the wires of the five-axis servo motor 7 can be smoothly connected to the CNC center of the machine tool and external liquid cannot enter the waterproof shell 12, an L-shaped outlet tube 120 is provided on the side wall of the waterproof shell 12 of the present embodiment. The opening of the L-shaped outlet tube 120 is set downward, so that the wires of the five-axis servo motor 7 can be placed in the outside through the L-shaped outlet tube 120. The L-shaped outlet tube 120 with the opening facing downward prevents the coolant from entering the waterproof shell 12 through the L-shaped outlet tube 120 when the five-axis turntable is used on the machine tool.

[0042] See attached Figure 5 A plurality of wire buckles 211 are installed on one side wall of the sleeve 21 near the wire outlet hole, and the wire buckles 211 are used to fix the wires. By fixing the wires on the wire buckles 211, the wires are closely attached to the inner wall of the sleeve 21 for routing, which improves the neatness of the wires in the sleeve 21, and also prevents the wires from wrapping around the five-axis servo motor 7 and interfering with the heat dissipation of the five-axis servo motor 7 itself.
