Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gear hobbing machine devices, in particular to a B-axis workbench of a gear hobbing machine. Background Art

[0002] The B-axis table of the gear hobbing machine is one of the key components of the gear hobbing machine. It is mainly used to install and position the workpiece for precise processing during the gear hobbing process. It plays a vital role in the gear production process. The B-axis table of the gear hobbing machine has the characteristics of high precision, high stability, easy operation and automation. These characteristics together ensure the quality and efficiency of gear processing.

[0003] During the installation of the existing B-axis table for a gear hobbing machine, the necessary tools, materials, and safety equipment, including wrenches, screwdrivers, and lubricating oil, are typically prepared first, ensuring they are in good condition. The table housing is then independently installed and docked with the machine bed to ensure that the cutting force can be directly transmitted to a solid foundation. Using an imperial ruler and dial, the effective center distance between the hob axis and the table axis should be between 1.2 and 15 inches. When adjusting the tool holder angle, care should be taken to ensure the tool holder does not slide down and is securely fixed. Finally, the machine is run idle for 3-5 minutes at low speed to check that all parts are operating normally and to ensure there are no abnormal sounds or vibrations. However, this device has certain drawbacks. The hob shaft is fixed horizontally, which limits its flexibility in multi-angle cutting. When machining gears at different angles, the hob shaft cannot be adjusted freely, which may result in failure to meet the machining requirements or require multiple resets. Therefore, a new B-axis table for a gear hobbing machine has been proposed. Utility Model Content
