[0019] Example 1

[0021] The outer walls of both sides of the motor mounting vertical slide 105 are respectively provided with vertical support plates 109.

[0022] One end surface of the vertical support plate 109 is provided with an upper transition connection block 110.

[0023] Vertical hydraulic cylinders 107 (explosion-proof type) are respectively provided on the outer walls of both ends of the same side of the crossbeam 102 and on both sides of the vertical slide rail 104.

[0024] The vertical hydraulic cylinder 107 is fixed to the outer wall surface of both ends of the same side of the beam 102 through the locking pressure plate 111 and the locking bolt 112.

[0025] One end of the vertical hydraulic cylinder 107 is respectively provided with a lower transition connection block 108 .

[0026] The working principle is:

[0027] The vertical hydraulic cylinder 107 remains in an extended state, and at this time the lower transition connection block 108 always maintains an extended support force on the vertical support plate 109 through the upper transition connection block 110;

[0028] When a power outage occurs and the motor mounting vertical slide 105 falls up and down on the vertical slide rail 104 , the vertical support plates 109 on both sides of the motor mounting vertical slide 105 ensure timely balanced support protection through the upper transition connection block 110 , the lower transition connection block 108 , and the vertical hydraulic cylinder 107 .

[0029] Example 2

[0030] Based on the first embodiment, Figure 3 The balancing cylinder support structure of the five-axis ultra-precision air-floating motion platform shown in the figure also includes a PLC controller 106 disposed on the crossbeam 102, and pressure sensor mounting grooves 113 respectively disposed in the end surfaces of one end of the vertical support plate 109, and pressure sensors 103 (explosion-proof type) respectively disposed in the pressure sensor mounting grooves 113;

[0031] The vertical hydraulic cylinder 107 and the pressure sensor 103 are respectively connected to the PLC controller 106 , and the upper transition connection block 110 is located on the surface of the pressure sensor 103 .

[0032] In the balanced support state, when any vertical hydraulic cylinder 107 has a problem causing the support form to change, the pressure sensor 103 feeds back the corresponding pressure signal to the PLC controller 106, and the PLC controller 106 (PLC controller 106 with a display screen) gives a corresponding text prompt and tries to start and control the vertical hydraulic cylinder 107 to perform corresponding balanced support.

[0033] The PLC controller 106 presets a safe range of pressure.

[0034] In addition, the vertical support plate 109 is preferably configured as an inverted L-shaped structure, and the vertical support plate 109 and the motor mounting vertical slide 105 are an integrated structure or a detachable structure fixed by bolts to meet installation and use requirements in different scenarios.

[0035] In addition, preferably, the upper transition connection block 110 and the lower transition connection block 108 are abutted or fixedly connected to each other to meet the installation and use requirements in different scenarios. At the same time, the upper transition connection block 110 and the lower transition connection block 108 are hard components.

[0036] The balancing cylinder support structure of the five-axis ultra-precision air-floating motion platform of this utility model, including the marble base 100, transition support portion 101, crossbeam 102, pressure sensor 103, a set of vertical slide rails 104, a set of motor-mounted vertical slides 105, PLC controller 106, and vertical hydraulic cylinder 107, are all conventional components and will not be described in detail in this application.

Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be encompassed within the present invention.
