[0024] To further illustrate the various embodiments, the present invention provides accompanying drawings, which are part of the disclosure of the present invention. These drawings are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments. With reference to these contents, those skilled in the art should be able to understand other possible implementation methods and the advantages of the present invention. The components in the figures are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are usually used to represent similar components.

[0025] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a gradient-cooled horizontal lathe is provided.

[0026] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown, the gradient-cooled horizontal lathe according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a lathe body 1, a control panel 2 on one side of the lathe body 1, and a worktable 3 at the top of the lathe body 1; an adjustment component 1 4 cooperating with the worktable 3 and an adjustment component 2 5 located on one side of the adjustment component 1 4 are sequentially arranged on one side of the lathe body 1, and swing components 6 are symmetrically arranged at the top of the adjustment component 2 5, and a spray component 7 cooperating with the worktable 3 is arranged at one end of each of the two sets of swing components 6; a temperature sensor 8 cooperating with the worktable 3 and the spray component 7 is arranged on one side of the adjustment component 2 5; and an auxiliary cooling component 9 cooperating with the lathe body 1 is arranged on one side of the worktable 3.

[0027] By utilizing the aforementioned technical solutions, this utility model, through the combined action of the lathe body 1, worktable 3, swing assembly 6, spray assembly 7, and auxiliary cooling assembly 9, can effectively reduce the thermal stress and deformation of the workpiece by gradually controlling the cooling process, thereby improving machining accuracy and surface quality. This not only extends the tool life in the lathe body 1 but also enhances the dimensional stability and machining efficiency of the workpiece. It is particularly suitable for machining high-precision and complex workpieces, significantly improving overall production quality and reliability. Furthermore, through the combined action of the swing assembly 6, spray assembly 7, temperature sensor 8, and auxiliary cooling assembly 9, precise cooling is achieved through multi-angle adjustable spray directions. This effectively controls the temperature changes of the workpiece during machining and cooling, reducing thermal stress and deformation, and improving machining accuracy and surface quality. This extends the service life of the equipment and improves the stability and machining efficiency of the workpiece.

[0028] It should be explained that the lathe body 1 is a horizontal lathe. The lathe body 1 drives the workpiece to rotate through a horizontally mounted spindle. The workpiece is usually fixed between the chuck or centers. The cutting tool feeds in the horizontal direction and contacts the surface of the rotating workpiece to perform operations such as turning, drilling, boring, and threading.

[0029] In addition, temperature sensor 8 detects temperature changes and converts them into measurable electrical signals. Common temperature sensors include resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), thermocouples, and semiconductor temperature sensors. RTDs and thermocouples reflect temperature changes through changes in resistance or electromotive force, while semiconductor temperature sensors utilize the characteristic that the resistivity of semiconductor materials changes with temperature. After amplification and processing, these electrical signals can be used to display temperature values ​​or control related equipment. This is existing technology and will not be explained in detail here.

[0030] In one embodiment, the adjustment component 4 includes a motor 401 disposed on one side of the lathe body 1. One end of the output shaft of the motor 401 is provided with a lead screw 402 that cooperates with the lathe body 1 and the worktable 3. Both sides of the lead screw 402 are provided with limiting rods 403 that penetrate the worktable 3 and cooperate with the lathe body 1; thereby, the worktable 3 can be adjusted in the horizontal direction.

[0031] The working principle of adjustment component 4 is as follows:

[0032] Control the motor 401 in the adjustment component 4 through the control panel 2. The rotation of the output shaft of the motor 401 drives the lead screw 402 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 402 drives the worktable 3 to move horizontally along the limit rod 403.

[0033] In one embodiment, the adjustment component 2 5 includes a rail 501 disposed on one side of the lathe body 1, a motor 2 502 disposed on one side of the rail 501, a lead screw 2 503 cooperating with the lathe body 1 disposed at one end of the output shaft of the motor 2 502, and a sliding seat 504 cooperating with the rail 501 disposed on the outer side of the lead screw 2 503; thereby, the spraying component 7 can be adjusted in the horizontal direction.

[0034] The working principle of adjustment component 2.5 is as follows:

[0035] By controlling and starting the motor 502 in the adjustment component 5 through the control panel 2, the output shaft of the motor 502 rotates, driving the lead screw 503 to rotate. Under the rotation of the lead screw 503, the sliding seat 504 moves horizontally along the track 501.

[0036] In one embodiment, the swing assembly 6 includes a motor 601 mounted on the top of the sliding seat 504. A support frame 602 is mounted on one side of the motor 601. A rotating rod 603, which passes through the support frame 602, is mounted on one end of the output shaft of the motor 601. A swing rod 604, which cooperates with the support frame 602, is mounted on one side of the rotating rod 603. The support frame 602 is a hollow hexagonal structure. The rotating rod 603 is L-shaped, and a limiting protrusion 605 is provided at the contact position between the rotating rod 603 and the swing rod 604. An arc-shaped baffle 606 is symmetrically arranged at the contact position between the swing rod 604 and the limiting protrusion 605. Thus, the angle of the spray assembly 7 in the horizontal direction can be adjusted.

[0037] The working principle of the swing component 6 is as follows:

[0038] Control panel 2 controls and starts motor 601 in swing assembly 6. Under the rotation of output shaft of motor 601, the rotating rod 603 is driven to rotate. With the cooperation of limit protrusion 605 and arc baffle 606, the swing rod 604 is driven to swing horizontally, thereby adjusting the spraying angle of spray assembly 7 on workbench 3 in the horizontal direction.

[0039] In one embodiment, the spraying assembly 7 includes an electric push rod 701 located at the top of the swing rod 604 on the side away from the sliding seat 504. One end of the output shaft of the electric push rod 701 passes through the swing rod 604 and is provided with a first fixing frame 702. A second fixing frame 703 that cooperates with the swing rod 604 is provided on one side of the first fixing frame 702. A nozzle 704 that cooperates with the worktable 3 is provided on the inner side of the first fixing frame 702 (the spraying direction of the nozzle 704 has a certain tilt angle with the horizontal direction). The other end of the nozzle 704 is provided with a hose 705 that cooperates with the second fixing frame 703 and the sliding seat 504, thereby adjusting the vertical position of the nozzle 704.

[0040] The working principle of spray component 7 is as follows:

[0041] The electric push rod 701 in the spray assembly 7 is controlled and started through the control panel 2. Under the extension or retraction of the output shaft of the electric push rod 701, the first fixing frame 702 is moved vertically, and the vertical position of the nozzle 704 is adjusted with the cooperation of the second fixing frame 703 and the hose 705.

[0042] It should be explained that in practical applications, the side of the hose 705 away from the sliding seat 504 will be extended and connected to the coolant pump head. The coolant pump head draws and delivers coolant by rotating the impeller. When the motor drives the impeller to rotate, the centrifugal force generated by the impeller draws water from the center and pushes it radially outward, and discharges it through the outlet of the pump casing. This centrifugal action makes the coolant form a continuous flow in the pump, thereby achieving efficient and stable delivery. The coolant is usually a liquid with high thermal conductivity and low freezing point, such as a mixture of water and ethylene glycol. This is existing technology and will not be explained in detail here.

[0043] In one embodiment, the auxiliary cooling assembly 9 includes a second limiting rod 901 disposed on one side of the lathe body 1, a movable frame 902 that cooperates with the worktable 3 disposed on the outer side of the second limiting rod 901, and a cooling fan 903 that cooperates with the worktable 3 disposed on the inner side of the movable frame 902; thereby performing auxiliary cooling operation on the workpiece on the top of the worktable 3.

[0044] To facilitate understanding of the above-mentioned technical solutions of this utility model, the working principle or operation method of this utility model in actual process will be described in detail below.

[0045] In practical applications, firstly, the control panel 2 controls and activates adjustment components 4 and 5 to adjust the horizontal position of the worktable 3 relative to the spraying component 7. Then, the control panel 2 controls and activates the lathe body 1 to perform turning, drilling, boring, and threading operations on the workpiece at the worktable 3. With the cooperation of the temperature sensor 8, when the temperature does not reach the preset threshold, the control panel 2 controls and activates motor 601 in the swing component 6. Under the rotation of the output shaft of motor 601, the rotating rod 603 rotates, and with the cooperation of the limiting protrusion 605 and the arc-shaped baffle 606, the swing rod 604 swings horizontally, thereby adjusting the spraying angle of the spraying component 7 on the worktable 3 in the horizontal direction. Control panel 2 controls and activates the electric push rod 701 in the spray assembly 7. Under the extension or retraction of the output shaft of the electric push rod 701, the first fixed frame 702 moves vertically. With the cooperation of the second fixed frame 703 and the hose 705, the vertical position of the nozzle 704 is adjusted. The side of the hose 705 away from the sliding seat 504 is extended and connected to the coolant pump head. The coolant is then sprayed onto the workpiece at the worktable 3 through the nozzle 704. With the cooperation of the temperature sensor 8, when the temperature reaches or exceeds the preset threshold, the control panel 2 controls and activates the cooling fan 903 to exhaust air from the worktable 3, removing excess heat and achieving gradient cooling of the workpiece at the worktable 3.

[0046] The working principles of the lathe body 1, adjustment component 1, adjustment component 2, swing component 6, spraying component 7, and temperature sensor 8 are as described above.

[0047] In summary, by utilizing the above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model, under the combined action of the lathe body 1, worktable 3, swing assembly 6, spray assembly 7, and auxiliary cooling assembly 9, this utility model can effectively reduce the thermal stress and deformation of the workpiece by gradually controlling the cooling process, thereby improving machining accuracy and surface quality. This not only extends the tool life in the lathe body 1 but also improves the dimensional stability and machining efficiency of the workpiece. It is particularly suitable for machining high-precision and complex workpieces, significantly improving overall production quality and reliability. Furthermore, under the combined action of the swing assembly 6, spray assembly 7, temperature sensor 8, and auxiliary cooling assembly 9, precise cooling is achieved through multi-angle adjustable spray directions, effectively controlling the temperature change of the workpiece during machining and cooling, reducing thermal stress and deformation, and improving machining accuracy and surface quality. This extends the service life of the equipment and improves the stability and machining efficiency of the workpiece.
