DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments; based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] Embodiment 1, by Figure 1-6 The utility model relates to an oil cooling device for a machine tool spindle, comprising a spindle 1, an oil cooling assembly 2 being provided on the outside of the spindle 1;

[0027] The oil cooling assembly 2 includes an oil cooling cylinder 201 installed on the outside of the main shaft 1. The top and bottom ends of the oil cooling cylinder 201 are symmetrically provided with shaft grooves 202. The main shaft 1 can pass through the two shaft grooves 202. The outer wall of the main shaft 1 is tightly attached to the inside of the shaft groove 202. A connecting ring 205 is installed on the outside of the oil cooling cylinder 201. A connecting pipe 206 is installed on one side of the connecting ring 205. The connecting pipe 206 is connected to the inner cavity of the connecting ring 205. A spray piece is installed on the inside of the connecting ring 205. The end of the connecting pipe 206 away from the connecting ring 205 is equipped with an oil outlet assembly 3. The bottom end of the oil cooling cylinder 201 is equipped with an oil drain pipe. 203, a first valve 204 is installed on the oil drain pipe 203, and the spray part includes a nozzle 207 installed at an equal angle on the inner side of the connecting ring 205. The nozzle 207 is located inside the inner cavity of the oil cooling cylinder 201. An inner cavity 208 is opened inside the nozzle 207. The inner cavity 208 is connected to the inner cavity of the connecting ring 205. An end spray hole 209 is opened at one end of the inner cavity 208 away from the connecting ring 205. The diameter of the end spray hole 209 is smaller than the diameter of the inner cavity 208. An oil injection control part 210 is installed inside the inner cavity 208. The oil injection control part 210 includes a nozzle 210 provided inside the inner cavity 208. The guide crossbar 2101 has one end fixedly connected to the inner wall of the inner cavity of the connecting ring 205, and the guide crossbar 2101 is parallel to the nozzle 207. The diameter of the guide crossbar 2101 is smaller than the diameter of the end nozzle 209. A baffle 2102 is movably installed inside the inner cavity 208. The outer wall of the baffle 2102 is in close contact with the inner wall of the inner cavity 208. A guide groove 2103 is provided on the inner side of the baffle 2102. The inner wall of the guide groove 2103 is in close contact with the outer wall of the guide crossbar 2101. A spring 2104 is installed on the side of the baffle 2102 away from the end nozzle 209. One end of spring 2104 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting ring 205. Baffle 2102 is provided with through-holes 2105 at equal angles. When the side of baffle 2102 facing away from spring 2104 abuts against the inner wall of the inner cavity 208 near the end spray hole 209, the inner wall of the inner cavity 208 near the end spray hole 209 closes through-hole 2105. During operation, nozzles 207 are arranged at equal angles inside connecting ring 205, allowing multiple nozzles 207 to be arranged at equal angles outside the spindle 1. When the air inside the oil cooling cylinder 201 expands due to heat, it pushes baffle 2102. After movement, piston 304, under the pressure of weight 306, moves downward, pushing oil from nozzles 207 to be evenly sprayed onto the circumferential outer wall of spindle 1, improving the oil cooling effect on spindle 1.

[0028] The oil outlet assembly 3 includes an oil tank 301 fixedly mounted on one end of the connecting pipe 206 away from the connecting ring 205, the connecting pipe 206 is connected to the bottom end of one side of the oil tank 301, an oil filling pipe 302 is installed on the other side of the oil tank 301, and a second valve 303 is installed on the oil filling pipe 302. A piston 304 is movably installed inside the oil tank 301, and the outer wall of the piston 304 is in close contact with the inner wall of the inner cavity of the oil tank 301. A push rod 305 is installed on the top of the piston 304, and the push rod 305 extends to the top of the oil tank 301. A weight block 306 is installed on the top of the push rod 305, and a guide vertical rod 307 is installed at an equal angle on the top of the oil tank 301. The block 306 is slidably connected to the guide vertical rod 307. A fixed side plate 308 is installed on one side of the weight block 306. A cylinder 309 is provided below the fixed side plate 308. The output end of the cylinder 309 points to the fixed side plate 308. The cylinder 309 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the oil tank 301. During operation, the cylinder 309 is opened when the amount of oil in the oil tank 301 is small, so that the output end of the cylinder 309 moves upward, pushing the weight block 306 to move upward, so that the piston 304 moves to the top of the oil filling pipe 302. At this time, the second valve 303 is opened to fill the oil into the oil tank 301, which is convenient for subsequent oil cooling of the main shaft 1.

[0029] Working principle: During operation, when the spindle 1 works for a long time and generates heat, the air inside the inner cavity of the oil cooling cylinder 201 expands due to the heat, which generates pressure on the side of the baffle 2102 close to the end spray hole 209, pushing the baffle 2102 toward the side of the connecting ring 205, so that one end of the through hole 2105 is separated from the inner wall of the inner through cavity 208, and the through hole 2105 is opened. At this time, the piston 304 moves downward under the gravity of the weight 306, so that the piston 304 pushes the oil in the oil tank 301 into the connecting ring 205, and sprays it toward the outer periphery of the spindle 1 from the inner through cavity 208, the through hole 2105 and the end spray hole 209, thereby cooling the spindle 1.

[0030] When the amount of oil in the oil tank 301 is low, the cylinder 309 is opened, causing the output end of the cylinder 309 to move upward, pushing the weight 306 upward, causing the piston 304 to move above the oil filling pipe 302. At this time, the second valve 303 is opened to fill the oil tank 301, facilitating the subsequent oil cooling of the spindle 1.

[0031] After the oil is sprayed toward the outer wall of the main shaft 1 , it flows downward along the outer wall of the main shaft 1 to the bottom end of the oil cooling cylinder 201 . When the oil needs to be recovered, the first valve 204 is opened to discharge the oil from the oil cooling cylinder 201 .
