[0028] The present case will be further described in detail in combination with the drawings and the specific embodiments.
[0029] The present case relates to a double-head gantry inverted vehicle, as shown in Figures 1-6 , mainly comprising a T-shaped base 1, two groups of tool holders 2, a crossbeam assembly 3, two groups of slide assemblies 4, and two groups of spindle box assemblies 5.
[0030] As shown in Figure 2 , the T-shaped base 1 is divided into a rear cross body part 11 and a front vertical body part 12 according to a T-shaped structure. The rear cross body part 11 is provided with two groups of left and right symmetrical stands 13 at both ends, which are used for the crossbeam assembly 3 to be arranged across, and the two groups of stands 13 are designed in the shape of a big foot, which can effectively make the machine table front-leaning to improve the stability of the stand.
[0031] The two groups of slide assemblies 4 are independently arranged, and both are assembled on the beam assembly 3 and independently move left and right on the beam assembly 3. The two groups of spindle box assemblies 5 are respectively and correspondingly arranged on the two groups of slide assemblies 4, and the spindle box assemblies 5 move up and down on the slide assemblies 4.
[0032] The center of the front vertical body part 12 of the T-shaped base 1 is provided with a transfer area 14 for the workpiece transfer mechanism 6. The two groups of tool holders 2 are arranged on the front vertical body part 12 and are respectively located on the left and right sides of the workpiece transfer mechanism 6. The front vertical body part 12 forms a meandering chip removal groove 15 between the workpiece transfer mechanism 6 and the two groups of tool holders 2, which is beneficial to collect the chips in all directions. The meandering chip removal groove 15 is preferably in a funnel structure, which is more conducive to the collection of chips. The upper positions of the corresponding meandering chip removal grooves 15 beside the two groups of tool holders 2 form two machining positions.
[0033] The double-head inverted gantry machine tool of the present application adopts a T-shaped base 1 and double columns 13 to form a gantry structure with the beam assembly 3, which not only provides reasonable and effective installation and operation space for the double spindle box assemblies 5, the double tool holders 2 and the chip removal function, but also greatly improves the carrying rigidity of the entire machine, ensuring the stability and reliability of the entire machining process. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the left and right groups of spindle box assemblies 5 are respectively a first spindle box assembly and a second spindle box assembly, and the left and right groups of tool holders 2 are respectively a first tool holder and a second tool holder. When the double-spindle double-machining-position machine tool of the present application operates, the first spindle box assembly is responsible for the front-stage automatic process operation of the workpiece, i.e., feeding the raw workpiece to the corresponding first machining position, and after the machining is completed, feeding the semi-finished workpiece to the workpiece transfer mechanism 6; after the automatic turning operation of the semi-finished workpiece in the workpiece transfer mechanism 6, the second spindle box assembly is responsible for the rear-stage automatic process operation of the workpiece, i.e., clamping the semi-finished workpiece from the workpiece transfer mechanism 6 to the corresponding second machining position, and after the machining is completed, feeding the finished workpiece out for unloading. Thus, the double-spindle double-machining-position machine tool operates independently, and the two can be synchronized and orderly, realizing an entire coherent automatic operation from feeding to unloading (reducing the cost of matching automation and reducing the clamping time), which realizes stable and efficient machining.
[0034] The preferred scheme is as follows: Figures 3-5As shown, the crossbeam assembly 3 comprises a crossbeam 31, two sets of linear guides 32 and two sets of slide driving mechanisms 33. The crossbeam 31 is in L-shaped structure, the two sets of slide driving mechanisms 33 are accommodated in the inner space of the L-shaped structure, and the two sets of linear guides 32 are arranged in parallel with each other and are arranged on the top and side of the L-shaped structure respectively, so that the two sets of linear guides 32 are two sets of guides with high and low asymmetry, and the installation axes of the two sets of guides are perpendicular to each other. The two sets of slide assemblies 4 are all in inverted L-shaped structure which can be matched and locked on the crossbeam 31. Specifically, the slide assembly 4 has a slide 41 which is in inverted L-shaped structure, and the slide 41 and the crossbeam 31 are in positive and inverted L-shaped structure. In this way, on the one hand, the crossbeam 31 can be designed to be lengthened to facilitate double machining installation, and on the other hand, it also effectively prevents the problem of shaking of the lengthened crossbeam 31, effectively reduces the torsion force during machining, and improves the precision during machining. The corresponding position of the slide 41 is provided with a top slide block 411 and a side slide block 412 which are matched and installed with the two sets of linear guides 32.
[0035] The two sets of slide driving mechanisms 33 are in one-to-one corresponding transmission connection with the two sets of slide assemblies 4. Specifically, the slide driving mechanism 33 comprises a ball screw 331, a coupling 332 and a servo motor 333, and the ball screw 331 is in transmission connection with the servo motor 333 through the coupling 332. The slide 41 is provided with a slide nut (not shown in the figure) which is matched and threadedly connected with the ball screw 331. The servo motor 333 drives the ball screw 331 to rotate through the coupling 332, and under the cooperation of the slide nut and the two sets of linear guides, the two sets of slide assemblies 4 are independently left and right reciprocating.
[0036] Further, the two sets of slide driving mechanisms 33 are arranged in parallel and extend transversely in the inner space of the crossbeam 31, and the two sets are arranged in an upper and lower staggered manner. In this way, it is ensured that the two sets of slide assemblies 4 work independently, and at the same time, it is ensured that the two sets of slide assemblies 4 can be shifted to the transfer area 6 for related operations.
[0037] Preferably, as shown in Figure 4 , Figure 6 The slide assembly 4 comprises a slide 41, two sets of slide linear guides 42 and a main shaft driving mechanism 43. The two sets of slide linear guides 42 are vertically arranged on the side assembly surface of the slide 41, the main shaft box assembly 5 is movably arranged on the side assembly surface of the slide 41 through cooperation of the two sets of slide linear guides 42, and the main shaft driving mechanism 43 is in transmission connection with the main shaft box assembly 5 to drive the main shaft box assembly 5 to move up and down. The main shaft driving mechanism 43 comprises a ball screw 431, a coupling 432 and a servo motor 433, and the ball screw 431 is in transmission connection with the servo motor 433 through the coupling 432.
[0038] Preferably, as shown in Figure 6As shown, the spindle box assembly 5 includes a spindle box 51, a spindle 52, a pull rod 53, a hydraulic chuck 54 and a rotary oil cylinder 55. The spindle box 51 is provided with two sets of sliders corresponding to the two sets of slide rails 42, and is also provided with a screw nut matched with the ball screw 431, so as to realize the up-down reciprocating movement of the spindle box assembly 5 driven by the spindle driving mechanism 43. The spindle 52 is arranged in the spindle box 51, the pull rod 53 is arranged through the spindle 52, and the rotary oil cylinder 55 and the hydraulic chuck 54 are respectively connected to the upper and lower ends of the pull rod 53. The pull rod 53 is driven by the rotary oil cylinder 55 to drive the hydraulic chuck 54 to clamp and loosen. The spindle box 51 is an integral downwardly inclined structure, so that the upward force during machining is buffered, and the automation is better matched, and the machining precision is ensured.
[0039] Preferably, as Figure 1 As shown, the front vertical body part 12 of the T-shaped base 1 is provided with a feeding area 7 and a finished product warehouse 8 on both sides. During the operation of the gantry double-head inverted vehicle, the first spindle box assembly moves back and forth between the feeding area 7, the first machining position and the workpiece transfer area under the cooperation of the corresponding slide assembly, and realizes the taking and placing of the workpiece and the machining operation through the up-down movement of the first spindle box assembly and the clamping and loosening operation of the hydraulic chuck. Similarly, the second spindle box assembly moves back and forth between the workpiece transfer area, the second machining position and the finished product warehouse 8 under the cooperation of the corresponding slide assembly, and realizes the machining and taking and placing operation of the workpiece through the up-down movement of the second spindle box assembly and the clamping and loosening operation of the hydraulic chuck. Finally, each machining workpiece realizes the automatic flow machining of the feeding area 7, the first machining position, the workpiece transfer area, the second machining position and the finished product warehouse 8, and the automation can realize an automatic production and machining close to zero beat.
