[0002] In the field of CNC machine tools, the saddle serves as the key bridge connecting the worktable and base. Its rigidity and stability play a vital role in the precision of the machining center. However, existing saddle parts have many shortcomings in design and manufacturing. Typically, existing saddles are designed with individual connecting parts as separate parts, which are then assembled to form a complete unit.
[0003] This design and manufacturing approach presented significant problems during installation. The split-part design made the installation process extremely cumbersome, requiring significant time and effort for assembly and commissioning. Furthermore, the split design resulted in a relatively large overall structure, which not only occupied a significant amount of space but also increased the difficulty and complexity of installation. Furthermore, the split assembly approach weakened the overall strength to a certain extent, resulting in poor overall stability during use, which in turn affected the precision and efficiency of the machining center.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, descriptions of known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessary confusion regarding the concepts of the present invention.
[0023] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the present invention proposes an optical machine saddle that is easy to install. It is mainly composed of a saddle body 1. A screw seat 10 is configured on one side of the bottom of the saddle body 1. Guide rails 11 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the top. X-axis sliders are movably assembled on the guide rails 11, and a pair of Y-axis movable mounting components are symmetrically set at the bottom. Mounting frames 12 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the saddle body 1, two sets of mounting plates 16 are set at the bottom, and two sets of slide grooves 15 are also opened at the bottom. Several slide grooves 15 are distributed on both sides of the mounting plate 16.
[0024] The Y-axis movable mounting assembly is primarily composed of a bidirectional lead screw 31, which is movably mounted between a set of mounting plates 16 via a pair of bearing blocks 30. One end of the lead screw 31 is connected to the drive end of a motor 32, which is housed within the mounting frame 12. A pair of half-sliders 33 are symmetrically arranged on the lead screw 31. Nuts 35 are disposed within the half-sliders 33 and are threadedly mounted on the lead screw 31.
[0025] A plurality of mounting grooves 13 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the saddle body 1, and a pair of screw holes 14 are provided in each mounting groove 13. Screw holes 2 36 are provided on both sides of the top of the semi-slider 33 at positions corresponding to the screw holes 14. The corresponding screw holes 14 and screw holes 2 36 are connected by hollow bolts 4, and a pair of "T"-shaped guide blocks 34 are assembled on the top of the semi-slider 33, and the "T"-shaped guide blocks 34 are embedded in the slide groove 15.
[0026] Preferably, by setting the cooperation of the slide groove 15 and the "T"-shaped guide block 34, on the one hand, a guide is provided for the movement of the semi-slider 33 during installation, so that it can move accurately along the predetermined path. On the other hand, the smoothness of the movement of the semi-slider 33 is increased to prevent it from offsetting or getting stuck during the movement.
[0027] During installation, first use a lifting device to hoist the saddle body 1 as a whole and steadily place it above the lathe body. Then, by controlling the motors 32 on both sides to rotate forward, the two half-sliders 33 on the bidirectional lead screw 31 move synchronously inward, causing them to tightly embrace the guide rails on the lathe body. Once the two Y-axis moving mounting assemblies have fully and firmly embraced the guide rails, the motors 32 can be turned off. At this point, screw hole 2 36 on the half-slider 33 will be found to be aligned with screw hole 1 14. Hollow bolts are then used to securely fasten the half-slider 33. At this point, the saddle installation is successfully completed.
[0028] During subsequent use, lubricating oil can be added to the interior of the half slider 33 through the hollow bolt to ensure the stability of the saddle during movement, reduce friction loss, and extend the service life of the equipment.
[0029] It should be understood that the above-described specific embodiments of the present invention are merely illustrative of or explanation of the principles of the present invention and do not constitute limitations of the present invention. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, the appended claims of the present invention are intended to cover all changes and modifications that fall within the scope and metes and bounds of the appended claims, or equivalents of such scope and metes and bounds.
