Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gantry milling machines, and more specifically, to a movable operating mechanism for a gantry machine tool. Background Art
[0002] A gantry milling machine is a milling machine with a gantry frame and a horizontal long bed. The gantry milling machine consists of a gantry frame, a bed workbench, and an electrical control system. It has relatively high machining accuracy and production efficiency, and is suitable for machining the planes and inclined planes of large workpieces in batch and mass production.
[0003] There are two installation positions for the control unit of the existing gantry machine tool. One is on the gantry frame of the machine tool and moves with the processing unit; the other is installed in a fixed position, and when operating, it is necessary to go to the fixed position to operate the control unit.
[0004] For the above two installation methods of the control unit of the gantry machine tool, in the first case, the user inputs the control code at the beginning of processing, and then the gantry frame moves according to the predetermined action. It is inconvenient to operate the control panel during the movement; in the second case, when the user needs to operate the control unit, they need to run to a fixed position to operate.
[0005] Neither of the above two methods can move the control unit to different positions according to the user's usage habits, and it is inconvenient to operate during actual use. Summary of the Utility Model
[0006] The utility model provides a movable operating mechanism for a gantry machine tool to overcome the problems raised in the above background. This mechanism can adjust the gantry machine tool to different positions according to the operator's usage habits, which is convenient for use.
[0007] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution of the utility model is as follows:
[0008] A movable operating mechanism for a gantry machine tool includes a crossbeam, and both ends of the crossbeam are connected to the gantry machine tool housing through outrigger support rods;

[0031] Embodiment 1:
[0032] Please refer to Figures 1-6 , a mobile operating mechanism for a gantry machine tool, including a cross beam 2, both ends of the cross beam 2 are connected to the gantry machine tool housing through outstretched support rods 3; a moving box 1, the moving box 1 is slidably installed on the top of the cross beam 2 along the Y-axis direction; a Z-axis telescopic rod 5 and a control console 6, the Z-axis telescopic rod 5 is slidably installed on the front of the moving box 1 along the Z-axis direction; the bottom of the Z-axis telescopic rod 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the control console 6; it further includes a Y-axis driving component and a Z-axis driving component, the Y-axis driving component drives the control console 6 to move along the Y-axis direction of the cross beam 2; the Z-axis driving component drives the Z-axis telescopic rod 5 to move along the Z-axis direction of the moving box 1; both the Y-axis driving component and the Z-axis driving component are electrically connected to the control console 6.
[0033] As Figure 4 shown, the cross beam 2 is horizontally installed, and both ends of it are fixed to the side of the gantry machine tool frame through outstretched support rods 3 and do not move with the gantry. Therefore, when the moving box 1 moves on the cross beam 2, it moves along the Y-axis in the direction of the gantry movement.
[0034] In the above embodiment, the control console 6 drives the Y-axis driving component and the Z-axis driving component to work. The Y-axis driving component drives the moving box 1 to move on the cross beam 2, changing the horizontal position of the control console 6; the Z-axis driving component drives the control console 6 to move up and down, changing the vertical position of the control console 6. The combination of the two methods can change the position of the control console 6 to meet the needs of different users.
[0035] Furthermore, as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 shown, the Y-axis driving component includes a Y-axis motor 12 installed on the moving box 1, and a Y-axis rack 23 arranged along the Y-axis direction on the top of the cross beam 2; the output gear of the Y-axis motor 12 meshes with the Y-axis rack 23 to drive the moving box 1 to move along the Y-axis.
[0036] More specifically, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the Z-axis drive component includes a Z-axis motor 11 mounted on the moving box 1, and a Z-axis rack 51 arranged along the Z-axis direction on the side of the Z-axis telescopic rod 5; the output end of the Z-axis motor 11 meshes with the Z-axis rack 51 to drive the Z-axis telescopic rod 5 to move along the Z-axis.
[0037] More specifically, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, both the Y-axis rack 23 and the Z-axis rack 51 are formed by splicing multiple racks together with bolts.
[0038] It should be noted that the output end of the Y-axis motor 12 is directly meshed with the Y-axis rack 23 through a connecting gear, or a coupling is provided inside the moving box 1, and the output end of the coupling is connected to the connecting gear to mesh with the Y-axis rack 23; the Z-axis motor 11 and the Z-axis rack 51 are the same, and this application will not elaborate here.
[0039] Furthermore, as Figure 3 shown, two parallel Y-axis guide rails 21 are arranged along the Y-axis direction on the top of the cross beam 2, and both ends at the bottom of the cross beam 2 are slidably clamped on the two Y-axis guide rails 21.
[0040] Furthermore, two parallel Z-axis guide rails 4 are arranged along the Z-axis direction at both ends of the front side of the moving box 1, and both ends of the Z-axis telescopic rod 5 are slidably clamped on the Z-axis guide rails 4.
[0041] Furthermore, a drag chain installation groove 22 is also provided behind the cross beam 2; a drag chain 13 is provided on the moving box 1, and the drag chain 13 is movably installed in the drag chain installation groove 22. The drag chain 13 is used to wire the vertical lines of the Y-axis motor 12, the Z-axis motor 11 and the console 6, playing a role in protecting the wire harness.
[0042] The specific working principle of this application is as follows: When the console 6 is in the initial position, when it is necessary to adjust the horizontal position of the console 6, the Y-axis motor 12 is started through the console 6. The output end gear of the Y-axis motor 12 meshes with the Y-axis rack 23 in the middle of the top of the cross beam 2, driving the moving box 1 to move on the Y-axis guide rails 21 of the cross beam 2, so as to adjust its horizontal position; when it is necessary to adjust the vertical height of the console 6, the Z-axis motor 11 is operated through the console 6. The output end gear of the Z-axis motor 11 meshes with the Z-axis rack 51 on the side of the Z-axis telescopic rod 5, so that both sides of the Z-axis telescopic rod 5 move up and down in the Z-axis guide rails 4, further changing the vertical height of the console 6. Through the above steps, the user can adjust the position of the console 6 according to their own needs, improving the practicality.
[0043] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, rather than limitations on the implementation manners of the present utility model. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation manners here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the claims of the present utility model.
