Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of high-precision CNC machine tools with anti-collision blades, specifically a high-precision CNC machine tool with anti-collision blades. Background Technology
[0002] High-precision CNC machine tools are CNC machine tools with extremely high machining accuracy, typically used to process high-requirement parts, such as products in aerospace, medical devices, and precision instruments. The machining accuracy of high-precision CNC machine tools can usually reach the micron level or even higher. During machining, the machine tool is prone to tool collision. The reasons for tool collision in CNC machine tools are varied, including improper operation, programming errors, parameter setting errors, improper program interruption handling, manual temporary tool change errors, machine tool failure, workpiece material defects, clamping factors, and misoperation. To avoid tool collision accidents, anti-collision mechanisms are added to the machine tool to limit the phenomenon of tool collision.
[0003] According to Chinese Patent Application No. 202311156554.6, a high-precision CNC machine tool with anti-collision tool is disclosed, including a moving mechanism and a tool holder mounted on the moving mechanism. The tool holder is equipped with a rotary drive motor, a rotary shaft, and an anti-collision mechanism. The anti-collision mechanism includes a fixed shaft, a buffer cylinder, and a first transmission shaft. By moving upward along the axis of the fixed shaft and rotating itself, the buffer cylinder can effectively dissipate the impact force generated by the collision, reduce the damage to the rotary shaft caused by the collision between the tool and the fixture, reduce the impact of the collision on the equipment, extend the service life of the equipment, ensure the machining accuracy of the equipment, and enable the equipment to cope with the force generated by the collision in more situations, thus improving the application scenarios of the device. At the same time, the setting of the first transmission shaft driven by the rotary shaft ensures that the main shaft of the tool holder, i.e., the rotary shaft, will not directly collide with the fixture, reducing the damage to the equipment caused by the damage to the main shaft. The first transmission shaft is easy to replace and has low repair costs.
[0004] Existing technology effectively solves the problem that when the tool moves along the cutting path, the reaction force generated during impact is not in the same direction as the sliding direction of the support plate. This can cause the support plate to jam or become unable to move when dealing with impact forces. It still cannot buffer the collision between the tool and the fixture. It has the advantages of preventing tool collision and reducing damage to the rotary axis. However, when malfunctions such as improper operation, programming errors, incorrect parameter settings, or program interruption occur, the machining table will move along the saddle, causing the tool to collide with the workpiece or the machining table. Moreover, the machine tool cannot stop in time after the collision, which can easily cause damage to the machine tool.
[0005] In summary, this utility model provides a high-precision CNC machine tool with anti-collision blades to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0023] Example 1
[0024] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a high-precision CNC machine tool with a collision-resistant blade, including a machine tool assembly 1. The machine tool assembly 1 includes a housing 101 and a CNC machine tool host 102. The CNC machine tool host 102 is mounted on the surface of the housing 101. A saddle 104 is mounted in the inner cavity of the housing 101. A moving assembly 2 is mounted on the front of the saddle 104. A limit assembly 3 is mounted on the surface of the moving assembly 2. The moving assembly 2 is used to adjust the limit distance of the limit assembly 3. The limit assembly 3 is used for limiting the machine tool. The moving assembly 2 includes a fixed plate 201, a support plate 202, a lead screw 203, a slide 204, a protective cover 205, a servo motor 206, a worm gear 207, a worm wheel 208, and a transmission rod 209. The lead screw 203 and the slide 204 are used to drive the limit assembly. The component 3 moves, and the servo motor 206, worm gear 207, worm wheel 208 and transmission rod 209 drive the lead screw 203 to rotate. The limiting component 3 includes a vertical plate 301, a first infrared ranging sensor 302, a contact sensor 303 and a second infrared ranging sensor 304. The vertical plate 301 is fixed to the top of the slide 204. The first infrared ranging sensor 302 and the contact sensor 303 are installed on the upper end of one side of the vertical plate 301, and the second infrared ranging sensor 304 is installed on the lower end of the other side of the vertical plate 301. The output ends of the first infrared ranging sensor 302, the contact sensor 303 and the second infrared ranging sensor 304 are all connected to the input end of the CNC machine tool host 102. The output end of the CNC machine tool host 102 is connected to the input end of the servo motor 206.
[0025] like Figure 1-4As shown, the servo motor 206, worm gear 207, worm wheel 208, and transmission rod 209 work together to drive the lead screw 203 to rotate. When the lead screw 203 rotates, it drives the limit component 3 to move, thereby adjusting the monitoring position of the limit component 3. The position of the limit component 3 can be adjusted according to different processing requirements, effectively improving the flexibility of its use. The first infrared distance sensor 302 is used to monitor the distance between the vertical plate 301 and the fixed plate 201, enabling precise adjustment. The first infrared distance sensor 302 and the contact sensor 303 are used to monitor the movement position of the processing table 105. The CNC machine tool host 102 sets a limit value for the distance between the processing table 105 and the first infrared distance sensor 302 to prevent the processing table 105 from moving. If a collision occurs with the cutting tool, and the first infrared ranging sensor 302 malfunctions and fails to monitor the fault, when the movement position of the machining table 105 approaches the set threshold and the contact point of the contact sensor 303 contacts the machining table 105, the equipment will experience a tool collision. At the same time that the contact sensor 303 contacts the machining table 105, the contact sensor 303 sends a signal to the CNC machine tool host 102. The CNC machine tool host 102 controls the machine tool to stop running, thereby stopping the equipment in time and reducing equipment damage. The CNC machine tool host 102 can adopt the control system of the high-precision CNC machine tool itself. The first infrared ranging sensor 302 and the second infrared ranging sensor 304 can both be KL800 models, and the contact sensor 303 can be JC-TM803 models.
[0026] Example 2
[0027] Reference Figure 1-3 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.
[0028] In this embodiment, the fixing plate 201 and the support plate 202 are respectively fixed to the two ends of the front of the saddle 104. One end of the lead screw 203 is movably connected to the fixing plate 201 through a bearing. The slide 204 is sleeved on the surface of the lead screw 203 and is threadedly connected to the lead screw 203.
[0029] The worm 207, worm wheel 208 and transmission rod 209 are all installed in the inner cavity of the protective cover 205. The protective cover 205 is fixedly connected to the support plate 202, and the servo motor 206 is fixedly connected to the saddle 104.
[0030] The output shaft of the servo motor 206 passes through the inner cavity of the protective cover 205 and is connected to the worm gear 207 for transmission. The worm gear 207 meshes with the worm wheel 208. Both the worm gear 207 and the worm wheel 208 are movably connected to the inner wall of the protective cover 205 through bearings. One end of the transmission rod 209 is fixedly connected to the worm wheel 208, and the other end of the transmission rod 209 passes through the support plate 202 and is connected to the lead screw 203 for transmission.
[0031] The moving component 2 also includes a slide rail 210 and a slider 211. The slide rail 210 is fixed to the front of the saddle 104, and the slider 211 is located on the surface of the slide rail 210 and is slidably connected to the slide rail 210. The slide block 204 is fixedly connected to the slider 211.
[0032] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the output shaft of the servo motor 206 rotates, causing the worm gear 207 to rotate. When the worm gear 207 rotates, it drives the worm wheel 208 to rotate. When the worm wheel 208 rotates, it drives the lead screw 203 to rotate via the transmission rod 209. When the lead screw 203 rotates, it drives the slide 204 to move. When the slide 204 moves, it drives the slider 211 to move along the surface of the slide rail 210. The slide rail 210 and the slider 211 cooperate to limit the movement trajectory of the slide 204. While the slide 204 moves, it drives the limiting component 3 to move. When the output shaft of the servo motor 206 rotates forward, it drives the slide 204 to move to one side. When the output shaft of the servo motor 206 rotates in reverse, it drives the slide 204 to move to the other side, thereby adjusting the limited position of the limiting component 3.
[0033] Example 3
[0034] Reference Figure 1 and 2 This is the third embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the first two embodiments.
[0035] In this embodiment, the machine tool assembly 1 also includes an audible and visual alarm 103, a processing table 105, and a spindle 106. The processing table 105 is mounted on the top of the saddle 104, and the spindle 106 is mounted on one side of the inner cavity of the housing 101.
[0036] The audible and visual alarm 103 is fixed to the top of the housing 101, and the output end of the CNC machine tool host 102 is connected to the input end of the audible and visual alarm 103.
[0037] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the audible and visual alarm 103 is used to issue an alarm in time when a collision occurs, so as to remind the staff to deal with it in time. The spindle 106 is used to install the cutting tool. The machining table 105 is used to provide a machining platform for the workpiece. A fixture can be installed on the top of the machining table 105 to fix the workpiece. The movement of the machining table 105 can be powered by mechanical transmission.
[0038] In use, the output shaft of the servo motor 206 rotates, driving the worm gear 207 to rotate. The worm gear 207 rotates, driving the worm wheel 208 to rotate. The worm wheel 208 rotates, driving the lead screw 203 to rotate via the transmission rod 209. The lead screw 203 rotates, driving the slide 204 to move. The slide 204 moves, causing the slider 211 to move along the surface of the slide rail 210. Simultaneously, the slide 204 moves, causing the limiting component 3 to move. A clockwise rotation of the servo motor 206 moves the slide 204 to one side, while a counter-clockwise rotation moves the slide 204 to the other side. This allows adjustment of the limiting position of the limiting component 3. The distance between the machining table 105 and the first infrared ranging sensor 302 is limited by the CNC machine tool host 102. The value allows for limiting the movement position of the machining table 105. The first infrared ranging sensor 302 is used to monitor the distance between the vertical plate 301 and the fixed plate 201, thereby enabling precise adjustment. The first infrared ranging sensor 302 and the contact sensor 303 are used to monitor the movement position of the machining table 105. If the first infrared ranging sensor 302 malfunctions and fails to monitor, when the movement position of the machining table 105 approaches the set threshold, and the contact point of the contact sensor 303 contacts the machining table 105, the equipment will collide. At the same time as the contact sensor 303 contacts the machining table 105, the contact sensor 303 sends a signal to the CNC machine tool host 102, and the CNC machine tool host 102 controls the machine tool to stop running, thereby stopping the equipment in time and reducing equipment damage.
