In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third" and the like are only used to distinguish the description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. Terms such as "horizontal", "vertical", and "overhanging" do not mean that the components are required to be absolutely horizontal or overhanging, but can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" only means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical", and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.

[0018] In the description of the present invention, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, it can be a mechanical connection, it can be an electrical connection, it can be a direct connection, it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0019] According to an overall technical concept of the utility model, a screw installation structure for use in a machine tool is provided, comprising a motor 1, a screw 2, a fixed bearing 3, a floating bearing 4, a fixed bearing seat 5 and a floating bearing seat 6, wherein the fixed bearing 3 is sleeved on one end of the screw 2 and fixedly arranged in the fixed bearing seat 5 (specifically, one end of the screw 2 is inserted into the inner ring of the fixed bearing 3, and the outer ring of the fixed bearing 3 is fixedly connected to the fixed bearing seat 5), and the floating bearing 4 is fixedly arranged on the other end of the screw 2 and sleeved in the floating bearing seat 6 (specifically, the inner ring of the floating bearing 4 is fixedly connected to the other end of the screw 2, and the outer ring of the floating bearing 4 is axially slidably connected to the floating bearing seat 6); the output shaft of the motor 1 is transmission-connected to one end of the screw 2 close to the fixed bearing 5; when the screw 2 is heated due to high-speed rotation and axial stretching occurs, the floating bearing 4 moves axially outward in the floating bearing seat 6 with the screw 2 to protect the screw 2.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in the illustrated embodiment, the output shaft of the motor 1 and the screw rod 2 are connected via a coupling, and the coupling is used to realize the transmission between the motor 1 and the screw rod 2.

The above structure is only one way to realize the fixed sleeve of the floating bearing 4 on the screw rod 2, and other ways to fix the floating bearing 4 on the screw rod 2 also fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in the illustrated embodiment, the floating bearing seat sleeve 6 is arranged on the outer ring of the floating bearing 4, and a space 61 is reserved at the end of the floating bearing seat 6 for the bearing cover 8 to move axially outward; that is, it is equivalent to not forming an axial limit on the screw rod 2, which can facilitate its axial outward movement due to stretching caused by heat when rotating at high speed.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in the illustrated embodiment, the bearing cover 8 and the end of the screw rod 2 are detachably fixedly connected via locking bolts to facilitate replacement and maintenance of the floating bearing 4.

[0024] In addition, it should be noted that there are various types of bearings, and different types of bearings can be replaced as needed in actual use, for example:

[0025] Option 1:

[0026] The fixed bearing 3 adopts three angular contact ball bearings, and the floating bearing 4 adopts a cylindrical roller bearing and a ball screw bearing.

[0027] Option 2:

[0028] The fixed bearing 3 uses two tapered roller bearings. Note that they need to be installed back to back. The floating bearing 4 uses a cylindrical roller bearing and a tapered roller bearing.

[0029] Therefore, the utility model has the following advantages:

[0030] The screw rod installation structure used in machine tools provided by the utility model fixes a floating bearing on the end of the screw rod away from the motor, and configures a floating bearing installation seat for the floating bearing which does not axially limit the floating bearing, so that when the screw rod is stretched and deformed due to heat generated by high-speed rotation, the floating bearing can be axially displaced together with the screw rod, and continue to form radial limitations on the screw rod, thereby reducing vibration, improving precision and extending service life.
