AI Technical Summary
When the five-axis CNC machining and milling center has a large working stroke at high frequency, traditional synchronous belts, racks or chain sprockets are prone to sound, bias, snap or jumping problems, and it is difficult to judge after damage, affecting the processing work.
The cable pulley transmission structure is adopted to achieve sliding or lifting of the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis through a roll wound with the cable rope. Combined with the elastic screw sleeve assembly and guide wheel parts, the tension force of the cable rope is balanced, and the biased teeth misalignment of the gear set is reduced through the electric slider limit.
It is suitable for processing needs when high frequency working strokes are large, reducing noise and transmission errors, and easy to judge by the wire rope damage, easy maintenance and replacement, and improves processing reliability and accuracy.

Abstract

[0002] CNC machining milling center is a processing equipment that uses a rotating tool to gradually remove material from a workpiece. It uses various cutting tools along one or more axes to mechanically remove material from the workpiece. It is a machine-operated cutting tool that is programmed and managed by a computer numerical control (CNC) system to accurately remove material from the workpiece.
[0003] When processing workpieces with few continuous curved surfaces, the actual working stroke of the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis displacement slides of the five-axis CNC machining and milling center is larger than the working stroke of the A-axis and C-axis rotation, and the working frequency is higher. The sliding of the displacement slides in these three directions mostly adopts a meshing transmission method composed of a synchronous belt and a gear rack or a chain sprocket, and these transmission methods are not suitable for frequent starting. For example, the chain or gear is prone to make a loud noise during operation, especially in the lifting and retracting process with a large working stroke, the chain hanging point and the sprocket are not in the same plane, which is prone to tooth deviation, stuck teeth or even tooth skipping. Secondly, it is not easy to judge after the chain and rack are damaged, which can easily affect the normal machining and milling work of the CNC machining and milling center. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0023] A five-axis CNC machining center, such as Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, it includes a bed 2 and a frame 1, the bed 2 is slidably connected to a Y-axis slide 4 with a workbench 3, the frame 1 is slidably connected to an X-axis slide 8, the X-axis slide 8 is slidably connected to a Z-axis slide 7 that can be raised and lowered above the workbench 3, and the Z-axis slide 7 is installed with a milling assembly 6, the X-axis slide 8, the Y-axis slide 4 and the Z-axis slide 7 are all slid or raised and lowered through a cable pulley transmission structure, the cable pulley transmission structure includes a drum wound with a steel cable rope 11 and a plurality of lasso parts 12 installed on the X-axis slide 8, the Y-axis slide 4 and the Z-axis slide 7, the steel cable rope 11 is sleeved and wound on the lasso part 12, and the steel cable rope 11 is positioned and transmitted through the guide components at both ends.
[0024] The guide component includes a tension screw sleeve assembly, a spherical steel cable head 14 and a guide wheel 10, and two groups of steel cables 11 wound with the drum are provided, and two groups of guide wheels 10 are symmetrically provided, one group of steel cables 11 is wound with the guide wheel 10 on one side, and the group of steel cables 11 is connected to the bed 2 or the frame 1 through the tension screw sleeve assembly after being wound through the lasso 12, and the other group of steel cables 11 is wound with the guide wheel 10 on the other side, and the group of steel cables 11 is wound through the lasso 12. 2 is connected to the bed 2 or the frame 1 through the spherical steel cable head 14, and two sets of steel cables 11 are respectively wound through the guide wheel parts 10 on both sides, and the two sets of steel cables 11 are wound on the drum in opposite directions. When the drum rotates, one set of steel cables 11 is wound to pull the X-axis slide 8, the Y-axis slide 4 and the Z-axis slide 7 to slide or rise and fall, and the other set of steel cables 11 is relaxed to make them move, so as to always keep the tension balance on both sides. When the steel cables 11 are damaged, such as wire jumping or wire breaking, it is easy to judge by naked eyes.
[0025] Among them, the tensioning screw sleeve assembly includes a joint 15 with two threaded heads 9 and connected to the steel cable rope 11, and a nut threadedly connected to the threaded head 9. The nut threadedly connected to the two threaded heads 9 can adjust the installation position of the joint 15 within a certain range, and adjust the tensioning force to meet appropriate working conditions when the steel cable rope 11 is relaxed. The nut can be replaced with a screw sleeve with an internal thread. The screw sleeve is reversed to a left-handed thread and is engraved with knurling to achieve a self-locking and anti-loosening effect.
[0026] Among them, the two sides of the workbench 3 are rotatably connected with the Y-axis slide 4 through the support arm 5, and the support arm 5 rotates around the A-axis through the worm gear 13, and the workbench 3 rotates around the C-axis through the gear set. The gear set includes a large gear 18 and a small gear 19 that mesh with each other, and the gear set transmission ratio is 1:7. The worm gear 13 transmission is suitable for the small-amplitude movement and low-frequency working requirements of the A-axis. The transmission is smooth, noiseless and self-locking. The gear set is suitable for the flexible and high-precision working requirements of the C-axis. The transmission accuracy is high, reliable and stable, and the transmission noise is small.
[0027] Among them, the workbench 3 is slidably connected with an electric slider 17 with a tooth block near the gear group, and the tooth block can mesh with the large gear 18. When processing a workpiece with a low C-axis rotation frequency, the electric slider 17 is driven to slide and drive the tooth block to engage with the large gear 18 for limiting, thereby reducing the phenomenon of eccentric tooth rotation due to poor self-locking property of the gear group during continuous processing.
[0028] Among them, the bottom end of the Y-axis slide 4 is connected to a spring 16, and the other end of the spring 16 is connected to the bed 2. The workbench 3 and the workpiece are installed on the Y-axis slide 4 and require multi-frequency and high-stroke sliding. Its working load is large. The preload is provided by the spring 16 to increase the reliability and tightness of the Y-axis slide 4 when sliding, and prevent the Y-axis slide 4 from being displaced or skewed when sliding.
[0029] The X-axis slide 8, the Y-axis slide 4 and the Z-axis slide 7 are all slid or lifted by the cable pulley transmission structure. The X-axis slide 8 is taken as an example here: when it is necessary to drive the X-axis slide 8 to slide to the left along the slide rail of the frame 1, the motor drives the drum to rotate clockwise to pull the steel cable rope 11 on the right side along the guide wheel 10 to reel in the direction of the drum, and the steel cable rope 11 on the left side is relaxed under the rotation of the drum, and as the X-axis slide 8 slides to the left, the section of the steel cable rope 11 that is relaxed by the drum is tightened, and the tension balance of the two groups of steel cable ropes 11 is achieved; when it is necessary to drive the X-axis slide 8 to slide to the right, the motor drives the drum to rotate counterclockwise, and the process is opposite to the above direction.
