[0036] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the protection scope of the present invention.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model relates to an AC cradle turntable utilizing a movable tooth reducer and a torque motor combination, which is arranged horizontally in three sections, the first section being an A-axis turntable, the second section being a C-axis turntable, and the third section being a supporting assembly.

[0038] Figure 2 It is a cross-sectional view of an AC cradle turntable using a combination of a movable tooth reducer and a torque motor, wherein 01 is the A-axis direct drive module, which is fixedly installed in the box 03 by the first screw 02, 09 is the C-axis direct drive module, which is fixedly installed on the cradle box 05 by the second screw 04, one side of the cradle box 05 is fixedly installed on the output end of the A-axis direct drive module 01 by the third screw 06, and rotates with the A-axis, and the other side is connected to the support assembly 07 by the fourth screw 08.

[0039] Figure 3 This is a cross-sectional view of the A-axis direct drive module 01. 01-01 is a movable tooth reducer, which serves as the base of the drive unit and carries the remaining components. 01-02 is an inner rotor torque motor, whose rotor is mounted on the input shaft 01-03 through the fifth screw 01-04. The input shaft 01-03 is fixedly mounted on the input end of the movable tooth reducer 01-01 through the sixth screw 01-05. 01-06 is an output disk, which is fixedly mounted on the output end of the movable tooth reducer 01-01 through the seventh screw 01-07. 01-08 is a hollow shaft, which is fixedly mounted on the output disk 01-06 through the eighth screw 01-09 and rotates with the output disk 01-06. 01-10 is the output encoder, which is installed on the encoder seat 01-12 through the ninth screw 01-11. The encoder seat 01-12 is fixedly installed on the hollow shaft 01-08 through the locking nut 01-13, so that the output encoder 01-10 and the output disk 01-06 rotate synchronously to accurately control the direct drive module. 01-14 is the brake sleeve, which is fixedly installed on the housing of the movable tooth reducer 01-01 through the tenth screw 01-15. When the brake oil is introduced, the inner hole shrinks and holds the output disk 01-06 tightly to achieve the braking function. 01-16 is the torque motor stator housing, which is installed on the housing of the movable tooth reducer 01-01 through the eleventh screw 01-17. The stator of the inner rotor torque motor 01-02 is fixed by the twelfth screw 01-18. A coolant circuit is arranged inside it, and coolant is injected through the pipe joint 01-19 to cool the torque motor.

[0040] The structure of the C-axis direct drive module is the same as that of the A-axis and will not be described in detail here.

[0041] Figure 4It is a sectional view of the support component 07. Among them, 07-01 is the support box body. 07-02 is the bearing seat, which is installed on the support box body 07-01 through the thirteenth screw 07-03. 07-04 is the bearing. The bearing 07-04 is preferably an angular contact ball bearing. The bearings 07-04 are installed in pairs in the bearing seat 07-02. The gland 07-05 is pressed against one end of the bearing seat 07-02 through the fourteenth screw 07-06 to eliminate the internal clearance of the angular contact ball bearing. 07-07 is the sealing ring, which is installed in the inner hole of the bearing seat 07-02 and the inner hole of the gland 07-05 to prevent sundries from entering the bearing. 07-08 is the support shaft. The left side disk surface is connected to the cradle box body 05, and the right side shaft end is installed in the inner hole of the bearing, only bearing the radial force and capable of axial displacement in the inner hole of the bearing to ensure the smooth rotation of the cradle box body. When the workpiece to be machined is relatively light, the C-axis module can use a smaller specification, and the 07 support part can be cancelled to further release space and reduce costs.
