[0033] The technical scheme of the utility model will be further described in detail through specific embodiments.

[0034] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , a turning-milling combined machine tool tool holder, comprising a movable tool holder 1, a tool holder multi-axis movement platform 2, a tool holder rotating driving mechanism 3, a locking tool disc 4 and a locking tool disc driving mechanism 5.

[0035] The movable tool holder 1 is driven by the tool holder driving rotation mechanism 3 to rotate along the axis of the movable tool holder 1 to switch different tools, and the tool holder rotation driving mechanism 3 is installed on the tool holder multi-axis movement platform 2 to drive the tools on the movable tool holder 1 to complete movement actions.

[0036] The design is a conventional design, and different tool types are designed in the circumferential direction of the movable tool holder 1. According to the needs of the machining steps, different tools are switched for machining after the angle is set to rotate, which is one of the typical characteristics of a compound machine tool.

[0037] Due to the design form of the movable tool holder 1, there will be a certain amount of play when assembling due to machining, assembly, and other precision errors. When the machine tool size is small, this amount of play can be allowed, but when the machine tool size is large, the amount of play at the rotating shaft will be enlarged with the increase of the radius of the movable tool holder, which will significantly increase the amount of play of the end tool and directly affect the machining precision.

[0038] Although this problem can be solved by improving the size precision and assembly precision of the movable tool holder 1 itself, it is difficult and costly to optimize the size precision and assembly precision of such large parts, which will significantly increase the cost of equipment and is not conducive to cost control.

[0039] Therefore, the embodiment proposes:

[0040] The locking tool disc driving mechanism 5 is installed on the last stage of the multi-axis movement platform 2 or the tool holder driving rotation mechanism 3 as the basis for locking support.

[0041] In other embodiments, it can also be installed on other stages of the multi-axis movement platform 2. In theory, the more stable the structure of the basis for support is, the more stable the movable tool holder after locking is, but it also represents an increase in technical difficulty, which requires additional matching of other movement mechanisms that move synchronously with the multi-axis movement platform 2.

[0042] The locking tool disc 4 is fixed to the driving end of the locking tool disc driving mechanism 5, and the locking tool disc driving mechanism 5 is used to drive the locking tool disc 4 to move along the axis of the movable tool holder 1 to approach or move away from the movable tool holder 1.

[0043] A plurality of equiangular distribution locking holes 11 are arranged on the back or front of the movable tool holder 1, a plurality of locking shafts 41 are correspondingly arranged on the locking tool disc 4, the angle between adjacent locking holes 11 is adapted to the angle between adjacent tools on the movable tool holder 1, which is equal in this embodiment, the number of locking holes and locking shafts is also equal to the number of tools, and the locking tool disc 4 is arranged behind the movable tool holder 1, and the locking holes 11 are located behind the movable tool holder 1.

[0044] The matching gap between the locking hole 11 and the locking shaft 41 is smaller than the assembly activity allowance of the rotating shaft of the movable tool holder 1, and the locking shaft 41 is inserted into the locking hole 11, so as to reduce the rotating allowance of the movable tool holder 1.

[0045] Since the movable tool holder can be inclined in any direction under the influence of the activity allowance in the static state, the mouth of the locking hole is designed as a flared shape, and the end of the locking shaft is designed as a tapered head, so that the locking hole and the locking shaft can be quickly inserted together at the beginning of the locking matching, and the movable tool holder 1 is adaptively moved to the position and locked as the insertion action is deepened.

[0046] In order to facilitate processing and ensure accuracy, the inner hole of the locking hole 11 is a circular hole, and the main body of the locking shaft 41 is a cylinder.

[0047] Specifically, in the embodiment, the locking tool disc driving mechanism 5 includes a motorized lead screw mechanism installed on the last stage of the multi-axis motion platform or the tool holder driving rotating mechanism, and the motorized lead screw mechanism includes at least two straight guide rods, which are designed as four straight guide rods in the embodiment, and the four straight guide rods are arranged in the same plane or in layers. The locking tool disc 4 is fixed to the sliding block of the motorized lead screw mechanism.

[0048] Working principle:

[0049] When adjusting the tool, the locking tool disc 4 is driven by the locking tool disc driving mechanism 5 to move away from the movable tool holder 1, and the locking hole 11 and the locking shaft 41 are separated.

[0050] When the tool is adjusted to the position, the locking tool disc 4 is driven by the locking tool disc driving mechanism 5 to move close to the movable tool holder 1, the locking shaft 41 enters the locking hole 11, and the movable tool holder 1 is locked, so that the circumferential direction activity allowance of the movable tool holder 1 is greatly reduced.

[0051] As for the activity allowance of the movable tool holder in other directions, it is constrained by the original multi-axis motion platform.

[0052] After the locking is completed, the locking tool disc moves together with the multi-stage motion platform, and does not affect the work of the tool.

[0053] It can effectively prevent the movable tool holder 1 from shaking too much due to vibration during the process of machining the workpiece, and further ensure the machining precision.

[0054] Embodiment 2

[0055] As shown in Figure 2 The locking tool disc 4 is arranged in front of the movable tool holder 1, the locking tool disc 4 is installed on the sliding block of the motorized lead screw through the upper cantilever 42, and the locking hole 11 is located in front of the movable tool holder 1.

[0056] Preferably, the number of locking holes and locking shafts is equal to the number of tools.

[0057] Preferably, the assembly gap between the linear guide rod and the sliding block in the electric screw mechanism is the same as the gap between the locking shaft and the locking hole.

[0058] Embodiment 3

[0059] The locking shaft can also be designed as a cone with a small taper, which fills the hole of the locking hole by pressing into the locking hole, thereby locking it.

[0060] Finally, it should be noted that: the above has made a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the patent, but the patent is not limited to the above embodiments, within the knowledge of those skilled in the art, various changes can also be made without departing from the purpose of the patent.
