However, some users find it particularly difficult to machine these high-precision parts due to limitations inherent in the machine tool's structure. For example, low rotational precision of the tailstock spindle results in low center rotation precision; the lack of a clamping force display device on the tailstock means that the clamping force is controlled primarily by the operator's feel, making the workpiece prone to bending and deformation. Solving these problems often requires replacing the tailstock with a high-precision one, which is costly. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] like Figures 1-2 As shown, a high-precision centering device with easy disassembly and clamping force display for large machine tools includes an adapter 5. The adapter 5 is a sleeve-shaped structure with a cavity for accommodating a rotating spindle. A rotating spindle 8 is coaxially mounted inside the cavity. A center 1 is positioned at one end of the rotating spindle 8. The center 1 is located on the outside of the adapter 5, and the side of the adapter 5 away from the center 1 is fixedly connected to a tailstock center 4. To facilitate the installation of the adapter 5 and the tailstock center 4, a lifting screw 3 is installed on the adapter 5. The adapter 5 can be fixed to the tailstock center 4 by the lifting screw 3. The surface of the adapter 5 facing the tailstock center 4 has a mounting groove to accommodate the tailstock center 4. In the assembled state, the mounting groove is coaxially assembled with the tailstock center 4, improving the installation accuracy of both. The mounting groove communicates with the cavity accommodating the rotating spindle. The angle of the center 1 at the front end of the tailstock can be designed according to user requirements.
[0025] Specifically, the outer periphery of the rotary spindle 8 is fitted with a first needle roller bearing 9 and a second roller bearing 13 located at the front and rear, respectively. The two needle roller bearings are high-precision needle roller bearings and neither of them contains an inner ring. They provide radial support for the rotary spindle 8. The clearance fit between the outer diameter of the rotary spindle 8 and the two high-precision needle roller bearings achieves high-precision rotation.
[0026] To improve the accuracy of the axial runout of the rotary spindle 8, a high-precision end-face ball bearing 10 is installed on its outer circumference.
[0027] To precisely adjust the clamping force of the centering device, a feedback sleeve 6 is fitted around the outer periphery of the rotary spindle 8. A butterfly spring 12 is fitted around the outer periphery of the feedback sleeve 6. One end of the butterfly spring 12 is connected to the feedback sleeve 6, and the other end of the butterfly spring 12 is fixedly connected to the adapter 5. A chamfered bevel 61 is provided on the side of the feedback sleeve 6 facing the butterfly spring 12. A clamping force gauge 2 is installed on the adapter 5. One end of the clamping force gauge 2 is located in the cavity of the adapter 5 and contacts the chamfered bevel 61. When the butterfly spring 12 is subjected to an external clamping force, it will undergo compression deformation and simultaneously apply a force to the clamping force gauge 2 in the opposite direction to the clamping force. The clamping force gauge 2 accurately obtains the clamping force of the workpiece through the compression of the butterfly spring 12 and the chamfered bevel 61 on the feedback sleeve 6. The feedback sleeve 6 is fixed to the outer periphery of the rotary spindle 8 by the positioning pin 11. The axis of the positioning pin 11 is perpendicular to the axis of the rotary spindle 8. The slope of the inclined surface is designed according to the clamping force gauge 2 and the compression force gauge of the disc spring 12.
[0028] In this embodiment, the tailstock tip 4 is a movable tip. To prevent relative rotation between the tip device and the tailstock tip 4, an anti-rotation bracket 15 is provided between them. Preferably, the anti-rotation bracket 15 is right-angled, with one side fixedly connected to the adapter 5 and the other side fixed to the tailstock of the fish tailstock tip 4, effectively preventing relative rotation between them and ensuring overall stability.
[0029] Working principle: The adapter 5 of the device is fixed to the tailstock tip 4 using lifting screws 3, while the anti-rotation bracket 5 prevents relative rotation between the adapter and the tailstock tip 4. The angle of the front tip 1 can be designed according to user requirements. The tip 1 is fixedly positioned with the rotating spindle 8, and a washer 7 is placed between them. The rotating spindle 8 is radially supported by two high-precision needle roller bearings without inner rings. The clearance fit between the outer diameter of the rotating spindle 8 and the two high-precision needle roller bearings achieves high-precision rotation. The axial runout accuracy of the rotating spindle 8 is achieved by high-precision end-face ball bearings 10. The workpiece clamping force is accurately obtained by the clamping force gauge 2 through the compression of the disc spring 12 and the chamfered bevel 61 on the feedback sleeve 6.
[0030] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims.
