[0032] In the embodiment, the air floating assembly 7 can form an air film on the outer side wall of the shaft core 2 to limit the radial position of the shaft core 2, prevent the shaft core 2 from deviating radially during machining, and reduce the friction to improve the rotation speed of the shaft core 2, thereby reducing the grinding force and improving the machining accuracy of the main shaft.

At the same time, since the air in the first gap is flowing, the flowing gas can carry away the heat generated by the rotation of the shaft core 2, thereby ensuring the stable rotation of the shaft core 2.

[0036] In an embodiment, the energy transmission assembly 3 comprises a wireless power receiving module 31 and a wireless power supply module 32 arranged radially and spaced apart along the shaft core 2, the wireless power receiving module 31 is fixed to the outer side wall of the shaft core 2, and the outer diameter of the wireless power receiving module 31 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first air floating bearing 71.

During work, the compressed gas flowing in from the axial air channel 101 then flows into the first axial hole 713, and finally blows into the third gap. Since the first axial hole 713 is circumferentially distributed, the compressed gas blowing into the third gap will form a lubricating gas film with certain bearing capacity and rigidity in the third gap, thereby supporting the shaft core 2 and preventing the shaft core 2 from deviating away from the end cover 7.

[0044] By arranging the second gap and the third gap, the left and right sides of the shaft core 2 can form a supporting gas film during work, thereby preventing the shaft core 2 from moving axially. Moreover, the non-contact matching relationship can improve the rotating speed of the shaft core 2, thereby reducing the grinding force and improving the machining precision.

[0045] In the embodiment, a damping plug is arranged in the first radial hole 712, the first axial hole 713 and the second axial hole 721. By arranging the damping plug, the air flow rate flowing into the first gap, the second gap and the third gap can be controlled, and the gas pressure flowing in is ensured to be the same, thereby further improving the stability of the rotation of the shaft core 2. During work, the compressed gas flows into the first gap, the second gap and the third gap at the same time, thereby limiting the shaft core 2 in the axial and radial directions at the same time, ensuring that the shaft core 2 can rotate at a high speed in the body 1, and improving the machining precision.
