Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of head-swinging technology, specifically a non-orthogonal 360-degree head-swinging device. Background Technology

[0002] In metal cutting operations in machining, the oscillating head device is a key component for realizing multi-angle and multi-directional machining. Traditional oscillating head designs are often limited by orthogonal rotation mode, that is, the oscillating head can only swing within a limited angle in a fixed plane. This not only limits the flexibility of the machining range, but also increases the rotation space required for tool swing, affecting machining efficiency and accuracy.

[0003] To overcome these limitations, various improved oscillating head designs have emerged on the market, but most still fail to achieve true 360-degree oscillation without dead angles, and there is still room for improvement in space utilization and lubrication and cooling mechanisms.

[0004] Therefore, developing a swing head device that can achieve non-orthogonal 360-degree swing while having a built-in high-efficiency lubrication and cooling system has become an important direction for solving existing technical bottlenecks and improving processing capabilities and efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a non-orthogonal 360-degree head swing, which solves the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a non-orthogonal 360-degree swing head, comprising a base, a fixed base, and a swing head. The swing head is rotatably connected to the outer end face of the base via gear rotation. A non-orthogonal drive mechanism is provided inside the base, comprising a motor and a reducer. The motor is fixed inside the base, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the connection end of the reducer. The outer end face of the base is inclined at 45 degrees. The reducer drives the swing head to rotate on the inclined 45-degree side of the base. The swing head is located on the outer side of the base and rotates 360 degrees.

[0007] Furthermore, a rotating shaft is provided inside the oscillating head, which is used to drive the tool to rotate. By setting the tilt angle of 45 degrees, the shaft can rotate 360 ​​degrees with the oscillating head.

[0008] Furthermore, a flow divider block is fixedly connected to the lower outer side of the swing head. A flow divider cavity is opened inside the flow divider block, which passes through the upper end of the flow divider block. Multiple nozzles are fixed at the through end, and a nozzle is fixedly connected to each nozzle. The nozzles are positioned corresponding to the positions of the cutter.

[0009] Furthermore, a rotating ball head is provided between the nozzle and the nozzle head, the rotating ball head is connected to the nozzle head, and is rotatably connected to the upper end of the nozzle.

[0010] Furthermore, a shaft cover is fixed to the outer end of the oscillating head with screws to protect the shaft inside the oscillating head, and the shaft is easy to disassemble for replacement and maintenance.

[0011] Furthermore, a protective cover is fixed to the outer end of the seat head with screws. The protective cover protects the motor from water and allows for easy disassembly during internal motor maintenance and repair.

[0012] Compared with the above-mentioned background technology, the non-orthogonal 360-degree swing head provided in this application includes a swing head technology that is very mature nowadays, and a non-orthogonal drive mechanism as the core component. Its principle relies on the 45-degree tilt setting of the seat side, and the swing head is set to rotate 360 ​​degrees on the tilted side by a motor and a reducer, thereby reducing the swing space.

[0013] This invention provides a non-orthogonal 360-degree head swing. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0014] This non-orthogonal 360-degree oscillating head, through its 45-degree tilted drive mechanism layout, significantly reduces the rotation space required for the oscillating tool, enabling the completion of more complex and varied machining tasks within a limited working area. This improvement not only enhances machining flexibility but also optimizes space utilization, which is particularly important for compact machining equipment and space-constrained working environments. Furthermore, the introduction of the non-orthogonal drive mechanism allows the oscillating head to maintain a smoother operating state during rotation, reducing vibration and noise, further improving machining accuracy and equipment reliability.

[0015] This non-orthogonal 360-degree oscillating head, through the synergistic action of the flow divider, nozzle, and rotating ball head, achieves precise spraying of cutting fluid onto the workpiece and tool, effectively improving lubrication and cooling. This design not only extends tool life and reduces the risk of machining quality degradation due to overheating or wear, but also improves the stability and efficiency of the overall machining process. Especially during high-precision, high-load machining, precise cutting fluid supply is crucial for ensuring machining quality and equipment safety. Attached Figure Description

Multiple through holes are branched out from the through end of the flow divider cavity 11. Multiple nozzles 10 are fixed on the through holes. A nozzle 13 is fixedly connected to the nozzle 10. When the swing head 3 rotates and works, the nozzle 13 sprays cutting fluid to lubricate and cool the workpiece and the tool.

[0024] The shaft cover 7 is fixed to the end of the swing head 3 with screws to protect and waterproof the shaft 6 inside the swing head 3. A protective cover 8 is fixed to the outer end of the seat head 1 with screws. The protective cover 8 protects and waterproofs the motor 4 and can be easily disassembled when replacing the shaft 6 and maintaining the internal motor 4.
