Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turret technology, specifically to a Y-axis power turret for machine tools. Background Technology

[0002] A CNC machine tool is an automated machine tool equipped with a program control system. It controls the movement and operation of the machine tool through digital information to achieve high-precision and high-efficiency parts machining. It utilizes machining instructions represented by digital codes, and a computer controls the machine tool's motion trajectory, speed, and machining parameters to complete the machining tasks of various complex-shaped parts. A Y-axis power turret is a turret equipped with a power source and capable of moving and positioning along the Y-axis (usually perpendicular to the spindle direction). It can not only perform basic cutting operations but also achieve more complex cutting paths through movement along the Y-axis. Depending on the machining shape, the Y-axis power turret typically consists of a turret body, power source, Y-axis feed assembly, sensors, and feedback devices. These components work together to ensure that the turret can move accurately and stably along the Y-axis. However, existing CNC machine tools do not provide separate protection for the turret when not in use. Dust, iron filings, and other debris from the surrounding environment can easily enter the turret area, affecting its normal operation and machining accuracy, and even causing turret damage. Various sensors, motors, and other electronic components installed on the turret are also susceptible to environmental factors, leading to reduced stability and reliability. Utility Model Content

[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a Y-axis power turret for a machine tool, comprising: a machine tool support body 1; a movable component 2 slidably disposed inside the machine tool support body 1; a Y-axis feed assembly 3 disposed on one side of the movable component 2; a turret body 4 mounted on one side of the Y-axis feed assembly 3; a limiting side ring 5 disposed on one side of the Y-axis feed assembly 3; a protective cylinder 9 mounted on the outside of the limiting side ring 5, the protective cylinder 9 cooperating with the turret body 4; a protective component disposed on one side of the protective cylinder 9, the protective component including a sliding plate 13, the sliding plate 13 slidably disposed on one side of the protective cylinder 9, and a protective side cover 17 cooperating with the protective cylinder 9 fixedly connected to one side of the sliding plate 13.

[0026] It is understood that the main structures of the X-axis feed assembly 18, Z-axis feed assembly 19, and Y-axis feed assembly 3 of this utility model all include: a drive motor: providing power for X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis movement, featuring high precision and high response speed; a transmission device: converting the rotational motion of the motor into linear motion of the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis, ensuring movement accuracy and stability; a guiding device such as a linear guide rail or linear bearing: providing stable support and guidance for movement; a sensor and feedback device such as a grating ruler or encoder: monitoring the movement position and speed in real time and feeding back to the control system for precise control; and a mechanical limit device: used to prevent the adjustment position from exceeding the predetermined range, protecting equipment safety, and adjusting the position of the turret body 4. When the turret body 4 is not in use, the limit engagement between the limiting side grooves 10 on one side of the protective cylinder 9 and the limiting blocks 6 on the outer side of the limiting side ring 5 prevents the turret body from being used. The protective sleeve 9 is installed on the outer side of the limiting side ring 5. Then, the first limiting bolt 8 is screwed into the inside of the side bolt mounting plate 7. The first limiting bolt 8 is fixed between the first limiting bolt 8 and the first limiting hole 11 on the outside of the protective sleeve 9. The protective sleeve 9 is stably installed on the outer side of the limiting side ring 5. By rotating the second limiting bolt 16 outward, the second limiting bolt 16 leaves the current second limiting hole 15, and the protective side cover 17 can be pushed to one side of the protective sleeve 9. The protective side cover 17 drives the sliding plate 13 to slide within the fixed side frame 12, and the protective side cover 17 closes the opening on one side of the protective sleeve 9. Then, the second limiting bolt 16 is fixed between the second limiting bolt 16 and another second limiting hole 15. The protective sleeve 9 and the protective side cover 17 protect the turret body 4, effectively preventing dust and debris from damaging the turret, while protecting the stability and reliability of electronic components.

[0027] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 A fixed side frame 12 is slidably provided on the outer side of the sliding plate 13. One side of the fixed side frame 12 is fixedly connected to the protective cylinder 9. The fixed side frame 12 is internally threaded with a second limit bolt 16. The sliding plate 13 has two second limit holes 15 that cooperate with the second limit bolt 16.

[0028] It is understandable that this utility model adjusts the position of the sliding plate 13 and the protective side cover 17 by limiting the fit between the second limiting bolt 16 and the second limiting hole 15, and works with the protective cylinder 9 to fully protect the turret body 4.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 Multiple limiting blocks 6 are fixedly connected at equal intervals on the outer side of the limiting side ring 5. A side bolt mounting plate 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the limiting block 6. A first limiting bolt 8 is installed in the internal thread of the side bolt mounting plate 7. Multiple limiting side grooves 10 that cooperate with the limiting blocks 6 are opened at equal intervals on one side of the protective cylinder 9.

[0030] It is understood that this utility model uses the limiting blocks 6 on the outer side of the limiting side ring 5 and the limiting side grooves 10 on one side of the protective cylinder 9 to limit the fit, which facilitates the installation of the protective cylinder 9.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 Multiple limit holes 11, which cooperate with limit bolts 8, are provided at equal intervals on the outer side of the protective cylinder 9.

[0032] It is understood that the No. 1 limiting bolt 8 and the No. 1 limiting hole 11 of this utility model are fitted together for fixation. The No. 1 limiting bolt 8 restricts and fixes the protective cylinder 9 at the installation position outside the limiting side ring 5 through the No. 1 limiting hole 11.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 A limiting plate 14 is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding plate 13 away from the protective side cover 17.

[0034] It is understood that the present invention restricts the position of the sliding plate 13 by means of the limiting plate 14.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 The machine tool support 1 is equipped with an X-axis feed assembly 18, which is connected to the Y-axis feed assembly 3. The machine tool support 1 is also equipped with a Z-axis feed assembly 19, which is connected to the X-axis feed assembly 18.

[0036] It is understood that this utility model uses the Z-axis feed assembly 19 to drive the X-axis feed assembly 18, the Y-axis feed assembly 3, and the moving part 2 to perform overall movement and adjustment. The X-axis feed assembly 18 drives the Y-axis feed assembly 3 and the moving part 2 to perform overall movement and adjustment, thereby completing the position adjustment of the turret body 4 on one side of the Y-axis feed assembly 3.
