[0002] The spindle speed change system of a CNC drilling center is a crucial component of the machine tool. To improve machining accuracy and efficiency, the spindle speed change adjusts the spindle rotation speed to adapt to different machining requirements. To reduce energy consumption, a reasonable spindle speed change strategy can achieve constant linear velocity cutting and constant cutting force cutting, minimizing unnecessary energy consumption and achieving energy-saving effects. To adapt to different materials and machining requirements, the spindle speed change can be adjusted in real time according to the hardness, thickness, and other characteristics of the material being machined, ensuring the stability of the machining process.
[0003] When the spindle of the CNC drilling center rotates at low speed, the output torque of the spindle is insufficient, which results in the inability to complete drilling quickly when drilling larger holes, leading to the problem of the spindle motor power not being fully utilized. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that when the spindle of a CNC drilling center rotates at low speed, the output torque of the spindle is insufficient, which results in the inability to quickly complete drilling when drilling larger holes, and consequently, the inefficient use of spindle motor power.

[0006] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: During operation, the hydraulic cylinder piston rod extends, lifting the servo motor assembly. The ball screw assembly drives the slide, which in turn moves the servo motor assembly along the guide rail. Based on the actual working conditions, an appropriate speed gear is selected, and then the spindle servo motor rotates, driving the drive shaft and synchronous pulley to rotate. The synchronous pulley drives the driven pulley and shaft to rotate. At this time, all three synchronous pulleys on the driven shaft rotate. Only one set of synchronous pulleys consumes the spindle motor power, while the other two sets do not consume the spindle motor power.
[0007] Preferably, the servo motor assembly includes a spindle motor, a connecting shaft, a motor mounting plate, and a bushing, and the connecting shaft has a flat, slotted shank.
[0008] The effect achieved by the above components is that the flat shank on the connecting shaft of the spindle servo motor allows the connecting shaft of the spindle motor to be better connected and fixed with other drive shafts.
[0009] Preferably, the linear guide rail assembly includes a guide rail, which is mounted on the housing. A slider is mounted on the guide rail, and a slide table is fixedly connected to the slider. A cylindrical pin is mounted on the slide table.

[0011] Preferably, the driven shaft assembly includes a bearing housing, the driven shaft assembly includes three sets of drive shafts, each set of drive shafts has a tapered groove with a taper, the driven shaft assembly includes a driven shaft, and the driven shaft has three synchronous pulleys of different sizes.
[0012] The effect achieved by the above components is to facilitate the servo motor assembly to better drive different gears through multiple sets of driven shafts.
[0013] Preferably, the hydraulic cylinder is fixed to the slide by bolts, and the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the motor mounting plate.
[0014] The effect achieved by the above components is that the servo motor assembly is moved up and down by the hydraulic cylinder, so that the connecting shaft of the servo motor assembly can be engaged with the tapered groove of the drive shaft.
[0015] Preferably, the first drive shaft assembly, the second drive shaft assembly, and the third drive shaft assembly are identical, and each of the first drive shaft assembly, the second drive shaft assembly, and the third drive shaft assembly includes a bearing housing, a bearing, and a drive shaft.
[0016] The effect achieved by the above components is that the first drive shaft assembly, the second drive shaft assembly, and the third drive shaft assembly can be well connected to the servo motor after the servo motor assembly is adjusted in position.
[0017] Preferably, the ball screw assembly includes a motor base, a coupling, a lead screw, a transmission nut, and a bearing housing, and the lead screw is threadedly connected to the slide.
[0018] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: the ball screw assembly drives the slide to move, and then the servo motor assembly on the slide is moved along the guide rail, thereby enabling the servo motor assembly to change gears more effectively.
[0019] Preferably, there are three sets of synchronous pulleys, and the three sets of synchronous pulleys are respectively connected to three sets of drive shafts and driven shafts.
[0020] The effect achieved by the above components is that, through the three sets of synchronous pulleys, only one set of synchronous pulleys needs to consume the power of the spindle motor, so that the power of the spindle is fully utilized.
[0021] In summary, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0022] The spindle adopts synchronous belt pulley drive, with three sets of synchronous belt pulleys. By controlling the drive motor to combine with the transmission input shaft with different speed ratios, three different spindle speeds (high, medium, and low) can be achieved, which expands the output torque and meets the requirements of the output torque characteristics at low spindle speeds. This enables drilling of larger holes and overcomes the problems of insufficient torque and underutilization of spindle motor power at low speeds. It improves production efficiency and accuracy, adapts to different processing needs, expands the processing range and speed, and reduces mechanical vibration and noise. Attached Figure Description

During operation, the piston rod of hydraulic cylinder 4 extends, lifting servo motor assembly 1. Ball screw assembly 8 drives slide table, which moves servo motor assembly 1 along the guide rail. According to the actual working conditions, select the appropriate speed gear, and then the spindle servo motor rotates, driving the drive shaft and synchronous pulley 9 to rotate. Synchronous pulley 9 drives the driven pulley and shaft to rotate. At this time, all three synchronous pulleys on the driven shaft rotate. Only one set of synchronous pulleys 9 consumes spindle motor power, while the other two sets do not consume spindle motor power.

The flat, slotted shank on the connecting shaft on one side of the spindle servo motor allows for better connection and fixation of the spindle motor's connecting shaft to other drive shafts.
[0033] Figures 1 to 4 The linear guide assembly 2 shown includes a guide rail mounted on the housing 10. A slider is mounted on the guide rail, and a slide table is fixedly connected to the slider. A cylindrical pin is mounted on the slide table. The linear guide assembly 2 restricts the movement trajectory of the slide table, allowing the servo motor assembly 1 to move along the guide rail. The driven shaft assembly 3 includes a bearing housing and three sets of drive shafts. Each drive shaft has a tapered groove. The driven shaft assembly 3 also includes a driven shaft with three synchronous pulleys of different sizes.

[0034] Figures 1 to 4The hydraulic cylinder 4 shown is fixed to the slide table by bolts, and the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 4 is connected to the motor mounting plate. The hydraulic cylinder 4 is used to move the servo motor assembly 1 up and down, allowing the connecting shaft of the servo motor assembly 1 to engage with the tapered groove of the drive shaft.

Ball screw assembly 8 drives the slide, and then the slide moves along the guide rail with servo motor assembly 1. According to the actual working conditions, the appropriate speed gear is selected. For example, when the spindle needs medium speed, the spindle motor stops at the medium speed gear. At this time, the direction of the flat shank of the connecting shaft of the spindle motor and the tapered groove of the drive shaft are consistent. The piston rod of hydraulic cylinder 4 retracts, servo motor assembly 1 descends, and the flat shank of the connecting shaft and the tapered groove of the drive shaft engage.

At this time, all three synchronous pulleys on the driven shaft rotate. Only one set of synchronous pulleys 9 consumes the power of the spindle motor, while the other two sets do not consume the power of the spindle motor.
