Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machine tool technology. Background Technology

[0002] A horizontal lathe is a machine tool primarily used to turn rotating workpieces using a cutting tool. Drills, reamers, taps, dies, and knurling tools can also be used on the lathe for corresponding machining operations. The headstock of a horizontal lathe supports the spindle and enables it to rotate at various speeds. A center can be mounted at the front end of the spindle using a tapered hole, or a chuck and dial can be mounted on the conical surface at the front end of the spindle for workpiece clamping. The traditional structure of a 2-meter horizontal lathe headstock is based on gear transmission, resulting in numerous assembled parts, a complex structure, low transmission accuracy, high cost, and high assembly difficulty.

[0005] A planar bearing 7, which mates with the spindle 5, is installed inside the spindle housing 10, located behind the spindle bearing 4.

[0006] The bearing cover 13 is installed on the rear bearing 16. The bearing cover 13 is fixed on the rear end cover 12 of the spindle housing. The bearing seal 14 is installed inside the bearing cover 12 outside the spindle 5. The bearing inner retaining ring 15 is installed at the rear end of the spindle 5.

[0007] A sealing ring 9 is installed on the spindle 5 behind the plane bearing 7, and the sealing ring 9 is fixed on the spindle housing 10.

[0008] The spindle housing 10 is fixedly installed on the front side outside the spindle seal 3, with the spindle seal box 2 installed.

[0009] The chuck 1 is mounted at the front end of the spindle 5.

[0010] The main spindle box structure of this utility model uses a permanent magnet motor for direct drive, which changes the traditional structure, reduces the number of assembly parts, greatly reduces the assembly difficulty, simplifies the transmission chain, transmits power more directly, eliminates gaps in the transmission chain, and improves transmission accuracy.

[0013] The structure of the main spindle box of the horizontal lathe of this utility model is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the chuck 1 is fixed to the spindle 5 with screws, the spindle seal box 2 is fixed to the spindle housing 10 with screws, and the spindle seal 3 is installed inside. The spindle bearing 4 is fixed to the spindle housing 10 with the spindle bearing locking nut 6. The spindle 5 is installed through the center of the spindle housing 10, and its front end extends to the outside of the spindle housing 10. The rear end of the spindle housing 10 is fitted with a rear end cover 12 via its own tapered surface and screws. A rear bearing 16 that mates with the rear end of the spindle 5 is installed on the rear end cover 12. A bearing cover 13 is installed on the rear bearing 16 and is fixed to the rear end cover 12 with screws. A bearing seal 14 is installed inside the bearing cover 12 outside the spindle 5. An inner bearing retaining ring 15 is installed at the rear end of the spindle 5 to prevent the rear bearing 16 from moving laterally. A permanent magnet motor 11 is installed on the spindle 5. The inner rotor 17 of the permanent magnet motor 11 is fixed to the spindle 5 by a key, and the outer stator 18 of the permanent magnet motor is fixed to the spindle housing 10 by a key and screws. A spindle bearing 4 that mates with the spindle 5 is installed at the front of the spindle housing 10, and a spindle seal 3 is provided on the front side of the spindle housing 10 outside the spindle 5. A planar bearing 7, which mates with the spindle 5, is installed inside the spindle housing 10, located behind the spindle bearing 4. The planar bearing 7 is fixed to the spindle housing 10 by a planar bearing locking nut 8. A sealing ring 9 is installed on the spindle 5, located behind the planar bearing 7, and is fixed to the spindle housing 10.
