[0002] In modern machining, dual-spindle machine tools are widely used in various types of manufacturing because they can process two workpieces at the same time or perform multiple processes on the same workpiece, greatly improving the machining efficiency. However, during the machining process of the machine tool, the tool tip will wear due to long-term cutting operations. This wear will cause errors in the machining dimensions and affect the machining accuracy.

[0003] In order to solve this problem, it is usually necessary to use a tool setter to measure the wear of the tool and to compensate and adjust the position of the tool or the processing parameters. However, there are some problems with the existing installation structure of the tool setter for dual-spindle machine tools. On the one hand, the traditional installation method may not ensure that the probe of the tool setter is always parallel to the tool tip, affecting the measurement accuracy; on the other hand, for dual-spindle and dual-tool holder machine tools, the machine tool space is different, and the space for installing the tool setter is limited. It is impossible to install a tool setter of normal size, resulting in insufficient stability and adjustability of the installation position, making it difficult to adapt to changes in tools of different specifications and processing requirements. After multiple processing, it is impossible to effectively compensate for the processing errors caused by tool tip wear. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0020] The embodiment of the present application discloses an installation structure of a tool setting instrument for a double-spindle and double-tool rest machine tool.

[0021] Referring to Figure 1 , an installation structure of a tool setting instrument for a double-spindle and double-tool rest machine tool is installed on the machine tool main body 1. The machine tool main body 1 is provided with a spindle box 11. The installation structure of the double-spindle machine tool tool setting instrument includes a fixing device 2 and a tool setting instrument main body 3. The fixing device 2 is installed on the top of the spindle box 11, and the tool setting instrument main body 3 is connected to the fixing device 2. And the tool setting instrument main body 3 is located on the side of the spindle box 11 away from the machine tool. The setting of the fixing device 2 can effectively enhance the stability of the tool setting instrument main body 3 installed on the machine tool main body 1, thereby maintaining the stability of the measurement accuracy and reducing the measurement error.

[0022] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the fixing device 2 includes a tool setting instrument cover plate 21, a tool setting instrument base 22 and a rotating bracket 23. The tool setting instrument main body 3 includes a base 31, an electric tool setting arm 32 and a detection device 33; the tool setting instrument cover plate 21 is firmly installed on the top of the spindle box 11 by screws, and then the tool setting instrument base 22 is detachably installed on the tool setting instrument cover plate 21 by screws, so that the staff can quickly disassemble and assemble the tool setting instrument, which saves time and effort and is convenient for maintenance; the rotating bracket 23 is fixedly installed on the tool setting instrument base 22, and the rotating bracket 23 is rotatably connected to the base 31. The base 31 is connected to the end of the electric tool setting arm 32, and the end of the electric tool setting arm 32 away from the base 31 is connected to the detection device 33. Therefore, the rotation of the base 31 can drive the electric tool setting arm 32 to rotate, so that the electric tool setting arm 32 can drive the detection device 33 to rotate, which is convenient to quickly adjust the position of the detection device 33 until the detection device 33 reaches the detection position and improves the accuracy of measurement.

[0023] The machine tool main body 1 is also provided with a numerical control machine tool controller. The numerical control machine tool controller is connected with a TSI 3 interface, and the TSI 3 interface is connected to the base 31. Thus, the numerical control machine tool controller can accurately control the rotation of the base 31 to improve the accuracy of measurement. At the same time, the numerical control machine tool controller can also receive the information fed back by the detection device 33, so as to compensate the tool to reduce errors.

[0024] Referring to Figure 3 , the detection device 33 includes a device main body 331. The device main body 331 is connected to the electric tool setting arm 32. The device main body 331 is provided with an RP3 probe 332. The RP3 probe 332 is connected with a probe 333. A transfer block is arranged between the RP3 probe 332 and the probe 333. The axis of the RP3 probe 332 is perpendicular to the axis of the probe 333. The probe 333 is arranged parallel to the electric tool setting arm 32. The arrangement of the transfer block 334 can effectively keep the probe 333 always in the horizontal line of the machine tool, that is, in the X-axis direction, with the spindle, so as to keep the spindle center, that is, to ensure the accuracy of tool setting; The end of the probe 333 far away from the RP3 probe 332 is covered with a protective shell, which can effectively protect the probe 333 and reduce the damage generated when the probe 333 contacts the tool. At the same time, the device main body 331 is also provided with a status indicator light 335 for displaying the status of the probe 333.

[0025] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the machine tool main body 1 is provided with a receiving groove 12 for the detection device 33, and the receiving groove 12 is provided with a U-shaped notch 121 for the electric tool setting arm 32 to be placed in a matching manner, which can effectively reduce the interference of the tool setting instrument main body 3 to other working components when it is not working, and at the same time further improve the protection of the detection device 33.

[0026] The implementation principle of the installation structure of the tool setting instrument of a double-spindle double-tool rest machine tool in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: The machine tool main body 1 controls the movement of the tool setting instrument through the numerical control machine tool controller, and the stability of the normal operation of the tool setting instrument can be improved through the installation of the fixing device 2. Then, a transfer block 334 is set, which is convenient for the staff to perform secondary adjustment according to the actual situation, so as to adjust the direction of the probe 333. At the same time, the probe 333 can always be in the X-axis direction with the spindle to keep the spindle center, so as to stably achieve the tool setting condition, adjust the stroke distance, facilitate the probe to more accurately measure the wear amount of the tool, and then perform effective compensation.

[0027] The above are all the preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited by this. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape and principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
