The connecting disc 4 is used to solve the problem that the elongated rod has a small diameter and cannot drill a suitable central hole to tightly contact the top.

[0034] Further, the elongated rod workpiece machining device further comprises a ring cutting device 3 mounted on the slide plate 2 to replace the tool rest on the conventional lathe.

[0035] As Figures 2 to 5 , the ring cutting device 3 comprises a body 3-2, and a horizontal central hole is arranged on the body 3-2, and the elongated rod workpiece passes through the central hole.

[0036] The ring cutting device 3 further comprises four sliding blocks 3-14 which are uniformly distributed around the circumference of the central hole, and the sliding blocks 3-14 are in sliding connection with the body 3-2 to realize movement in the radial direction of the central hole.

[0037] As Figure 2 , the inner end of the sliding block 3-14 is used for mounting a tool, and the tool is arranged around the workpiece to realize rapid cutting.

[0038] As Figure 3 and 4 , the sliding block 3-14 is further connected with a nut sleeve 3-15, and a screw rod 3-6 is mounted in the nut sleeve 3-15. When the screw rod 3-6 rotates, the nut sleeve 3-15 and the sliding block 3-14 are driven to move in the radial direction, and the position of the tool is adjusted.

[0039] The ring cutting device 3 further comprises a first motor 3-1 and a synchronous transmission mechanism mounted on the body 3-2, the input end of the synchronous transmission mechanism is connected with the first motor 3-1, the synchronous transmission mechanism has four driving shafts 3-10 as output ends, the four driving shafts 3-10 correspond to the four lead screws 3-6 one by one, and the four driving shafts 3-10 provide power drive for the synchronous movement of the four sliding blocks 3-14.

[0040] Specifically, the synchronous transmission mechanism comprises a gear ring 3-13, and further comprises four groups of first transmission gears 3-16, second transmission gears 3-17, third transmission gears 3-18, first bevel gears 3-12 and second bevel gears 3-11 corresponding to the sliding blocks 3-14 respectively.

[0041] The gear ring 3-13 is mounted on the body 3-2 through a bearing, a gear mounted on the output shaft of the first motor 3-1 is engaged with an intermediate gear, and the intermediate gear is engaged with the external teeth of the gear ring 3-13, so as to drive the gear ring 3-13 to rotate.

[0042] As Figure 4 and 5 each first transmission gear 3-16 is mounted on the body 3-2 in a rotary connection mode and is engaged with the internal teeth of the gear ring 3-13 respectively. The second transmission gear 3-17 is fixedly connected with the first transmission gear 3-16. The second transmission gear 3-17 is engaged with the corresponding third transmission gear 3-18 mounted on the body 3-2 in a rotary connection mode. The first bevel gear 3-12 is fixedly connected with the third transmission gear 3-18, and the first bevel gear 3-12 is engaged with the second bevel gear 3-11 mounted on the driving shaft 3-10. When the gear ring 3-13 rotates, the first transmission gear 3-16, the second transmission gear 3-17, the third transmission gear 3-18, the first bevel gear 3-12 and the third bevel gear 3-11 will be driven to rotate, thereby driving the four driving shafts 3-10 to rotate synchronously.

[0045] The driving gear disc 3-9 is installed at the end of the corresponding driving shaft 3-10, the intermediate gear disc 3-7 is sleeved on the corresponding screw rod 3-6 in a spline fitting mode, and it rotates synchronously with the screw rod 3-6 at all times, but can also move left and right. The driven pulley 3-5 is installed on the screw rod 3-6 through a bearing, and can rotate freely relative to the screw rod 3-6 when it is not engaged with the intermediate gear disc.

[0046] The intermediate gear disc 3-7 is located between the driving gear disc 3-9 and the driven pulley 3-5, and the end faces on both sides of the intermediate gear disc 3-7 are provided with end teeth. The side of the driving gear disc 3-9 close to the intermediate gear disc 3-7 and the side of the driven pulley 3-5 close to the intermediate gear disc 3-7 are both provided with end teeth. When the intermediate gear disc 3-7 moves left or right and the end teeth on one side engage with each other, the driving gear disc 3-9 or the driven pulley 3-5 can drive the screw rod 3-6 to rotate through the intermediate gear disc 3-7.

[0047] As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 , the clutch mechanism further comprises a sliding sleeve 3-8 sleeved on the outside of the intermediate gear disc 3-7 through a bearing and a clutch control device for pulling the sliding sleeve 3-8 to move, for realizing the switching of the working mode. Specifically, the clutch control device comprises a push rod 3-20 and a rotating rod 3-19, and the push rod 3-20 is installed on the body 3-2. The middle part of the rotating rod 3-19 is rotationally connected with the body 3-2, and both ends are respectively provided with a sliding groove. One end of the sliding groove is matched with a first limiting column at the end of the push rod 3-20, and the other end of the sliding groove is matched with a second limiting column on the sliding sleeve 3-8. The push rod 3-20 is a pneumatic cylinder or an electric push rod 3-20, as shown in Figure 6 , when the free end thereof extends to the right, it drives the rotating rod 3-19 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the intermediate gear disc 3-7 engages with the driving gear disc 3-9 on the left side, and when the free end of the push rod 3-20 retracts to the left, it drives the rotating rod 3-19 to rotate clockwise, so that the intermediate gear disc 3-7 engages with the driven pulley 3-5 on the right side.

[0048] The ring cutting device 3 further comprises a second motor 3-3 installed on the body 3-2, and the second motor 3-3 is connected with the corresponding screw rod 3-6 of the other driving shaft 3-10 through an intermediate transmission mechanism and the clutch mechanism. In this embodiment, the intermediate transmission mechanism comprises a driving pulley 3-4 and a synchronous belt, and the driving pulley 3-4 is installed on the output shaft of the second motor 3-3. The driving pulley 3-4 is connected with the driven pulley 3-5 through the synchronous belt.

[0049] In operation, first, the slender rod workpiece is clamped, then the clutch mechanism is controlled to ensure that the intermediate gear plate 3-7 meshes with the driving gear plate 3-9, at this time, in the four-tool synchronous mode, the four lead screws 3-6 are rotated under the drive of the first motor 3-1, realizing the synchronous movement of the four sliders 3-14 and the tools. Then the spindle is started to rotate the workpiece at high speed, while the four tools are controlled to reach the specified cutting depth at the same time, then the slide plate 2 is controlled to move, completing the turning of the outer circle. After the outer circle is machined, the four sliders 3-14 are simultaneously moved away from the workpiece, then the push rod 3-20 is actuated to make the intermediate gear plate 3-7 disengage from the driving gear plate 3-9 and mesh with the driven pulley 3-5, switching to the single-tool mode, then the corresponding tool is controlled by the second motor 3-3 to move radially to the specified cutting depth, and the spindle is used to complete the machining of the helical groove.

[0050] When the helical groove is machined, although the workpiece is in a one-way stress state, since the outer circle has been machined, the cutting depth is easier and more stable to control, and in order to ensure machining accuracy, the helical groove is generally machined multiple times, and the cutting depth of each time is small, so the stress is limited and it is not easy to bend. If the cutting depth needs to be increased, a follow-up center frame can be added to the slide plate 2 to ensure the rigidity of the cutting part.

[0051] It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present application is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the present application. The scope of the present application is defined by the claims rather than the above description.
