[0002] A CNC machining center, also known as a CNC machine tool, is a high-efficiency automated machine tool composed of mechanical equipment and a CNC system. It is suitable for processing complex parts. After a workpiece is clamped once, it can complete a lot of processing work with high precision. For batch workpieces with medium processing difficulty, its efficiency is 5 to 10 times that of ordinary equipment. In particular, it can complete many processing tasks that ordinary equipment cannot. It is more suitable for single-piece processing or small-batch multi-variety production with complex shapes and high precision requirements. The spindle of a CNC machine tool refers to the core shaft component that can drive the tool head movement on the CNC machine tool.
[0003] In the prior art, the spindle of CNC machine tools is not designed with a good heat dissipation structure, which makes it difficult for the spindle of the machining center to dissipate its own heat after high-frequency operation, which easily leads to the failure of CNC machine tools. Therefore, this utility model proposes a spindle cooling water jacket for machine tools. Utility Model Content

[0023] Example
[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 6 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides a technical solution: a spindle cooling water jacket for a machine tool, comprising...
[0025] An external cooling sleeve 2 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the machine tool spindle 3, and both the external cooling sleeve 2 and the machine tool spindle 3 are installed inside the spindle box 1. The top of the external cooling sleeve 2 is provided with a coolant inlet 21 and a coolant outlet 22. The interior of the external cooling sleeve 2 is provided with an inlet channel 24 and an outlet channel 23 corresponding to the coolant inlet 21 and the coolant outlet 22. The surface of the machine tool spindle 3 is provided with a spiral cooling channel 31 that communicates with the outlet channel 23 and the inlet channel 24. In actual use, the external cooling sleeve 2 and the machine tool spindle 3 are fixedly assembled. Then, the coolant inlet 21 and the coolant outlet 22 are connected to an external cooling water pump through a liquid delivery hose. Low-temperature coolant is injected into the coolant inlet 21. The low-temperature coolant enters the bottom of the spiral cooling channel 31 through the inlet channel 24 and flows with the spiral cooling channel 31 to the outlet channel 23, and finally exits from the coolant outlet 22. At the same time, it carries away the heat generated by the machine tool spindle 3 during high-speed machining and prevents the heat from being transferred to the spindle box 1.
[0026] O-ring 32 is installed on both ends of the machine tool spindle 3, and O-ring 27 corresponding to O-ring 32 is installed on the inner wall of the external cooling sleeve 2. Both O-ring 32 and O-ring 27 are made of fluororubber to ensure the sealing of the connection between the external cooling sleeve 2 and the machine tool spindle 3.
[0027] The top of the outlet channel 23 is connected to the coolant outlet 22, the top of the inlet channel 24 is connected to the coolant inlet 21, the bottom of the outlet channel 23 is connected to the top of the spiral cooling channel 31, and the bottom of the inlet channel 24 is connected to the bottom of the spiral cooling channel 31.
[0028] The bottom of the outlet channel 23 and the bottom of the inlet channel 24 are both provided with an inspection port 25 that communicates with the surface of the external cooling sleeve 2. The surface of the external cooling sleeve 2 is provided with two sealing screws 26, which respectively block the inspection ports 25 at the bottom of the outlet channel 23 and the inlet channel 24. This allows the operator to unscrew the sealing screws 26 and clear and inspect the bottom corners of the outlet channel 23 and the inlet channel 24 through the inspection ports 25, ensuring the convenience of the spindle cooling water jacket in the later maintenance.
[0029] The bottom surface of the external cooling sleeve 2 is provided with multiple bolt holes for connecting and fixing the external cooling sleeve 2 to the machine tool spindle 3.
[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described (see the detailed description above), it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
