Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of gantry machining center structure, and in particular to a suspended gantry machining center structure. Background Technology

[0002] A gantry machining center is a machining center whose spindle Z-axis is perpendicular to the worktable. Its overall structure is a large machining center with a portal frame formed by two columns and a top beam, with a crossbeam in the middle of the two columns. It is particularly suitable for machining large and complex-shaped workpieces.

[0003] As a mainstream piece of machining equipment, the gantry machining center is shaped like a gate and processes parts in the central area. However, due to its bulky size, it is slow when executing movement commands. Furthermore, the lack of restraint components when moving to the designated location causes it to continue moving forward due to inertia after stopping, requiring repeated adjustments to complete the movement and thus reducing the working efficiency of the gantry machining center.

[0004] To address this, we designed a suspended gantry machining center structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to propose a suspended gantry machining center structure to solve the problem of repeated corrections when executing movement commands in existing technologies.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A suspended gantry machining center structure includes two mobile platforms, each mobile platform being equipped with a gantry machining device, and the gantry machining device being equipped with a base block.

[0008] The mobile platform is provided with a first sliding bar for moving the gantry processing equipment, and the gantry processing equipment is symmetrically provided with telescopic devices.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the mobile platform is provided with a sliding plate, and the sliding plate is provided with a plurality of sliding bars, which are arranged linearly on the sliding plate and abut against the bottom block.

[0010] Preferably, the mobile platform has a first groove and a second groove symmetrically formed, the first slide bar is fixedly connected to the first groove, and a plurality of limiting holes are formed in the first groove, the limiting holes being arranged linearly in the first groove.

[0011] Preferably, a second slide bar is provided in the second groove, and the two ends of the second slide bar are fixedly connected to the second groove, and the second slide bar passes through the bottom of the gantry processing equipment.

[0012] Preferably, the gantry processing equipment has symmetrical holes at its bottom, a column is provided in the hole, an adapter block is provided on the column, and the adapter block is adapted to the limiting hole. The telescopic device is fixedly connected to the gantry processing equipment, and the other end of the telescopic device is provided with a telescopic rod for pulling up the adapter block. The telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the adapter block.

[0013] Preferably, the top of the base block is fixedly connected to the gantry processing equipment via a drive rod, and both ends of the base block are fixedly connected to the gantry processing equipment via connecting rods. The base block is provided with multiple rubber posts for anti-collision. The gantry processing equipment is symmetrically provided with square holes, and compression spring posts are provided in the square holes. Both ends of the compression spring posts are fixedly connected to the gantry processing equipment. Auxiliary connecting rods are symmetrically provided on the square holes, and both ends of the auxiliary connecting rods are fixedly connected to the gantry processing equipment.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. This utility model, through the setting of the adapter block and the telescopic rod, enables the gantry machining equipment to improve the docking with the limiting hole on the moving platform when executing the movement command, and reduces the inertial propulsion of the gantry machining equipment after completing the command, thereby solving the problem of inertia in the movement of the gantry machining equipment. At the same time, the process of the telescopic rod lifting the adapter block can further improve the accuracy of the gantry machining equipment before starting when it moves again, thereby improving the working efficiency of the gantry machining equipment.

[0016] 2. By setting the first and second slide bars, the sliding plate at the bottom of the moving platform can be reasonably restricted at both ends during the movement process, reducing the left and right swaying of the gantry processing equipment. At the same time, the second slide bar can effectively improve the restriction effect of the gantry processing equipment, and with the support of multiple slide bars, the movement state of the gantry processing equipment being suspended in the middle can be avoided.

[0022] Reference Figures 1-4 A suspended gantry machining center structure includes two moving platforms 1, which are existing moving toolings and are mainly used for the position transfer of gantry machining equipment 2. The gantry machining equipment 2 is an existing gantry machining center. The bottom block 3 is an auxiliary component for balancing the bottom of the gantry machining equipment 2 and is fixed to the bottom of the gantry machining equipment 2 by welding.

[0023] The bottom of the mobile platform 1 is provided with a sliding plate 4. The sliding plate 4 is mainly laid on the travel path of the gantry processing equipment 2 to improve the stability and flatness of the movement of the gantry processing equipment 2. The sliding plate 4 is provided with multiple sliding strips 5. The sliding strips 5 are raised and are used for the bottom block 3 to contact the ground and ensure the stability of the gantry processing equipment 2 during movement. The sliding strips 5 are arranged linearly on the sliding plate 4. There are a total of five sliding strips 5, all of which are fixed to the sliding plate 4 by welding. The sliding strips 5 abut against the bottom block 3, and the top of the sliding strip 5 abuts against the bottom of the bottom block 3.

[0024] The mobile platform 1 is provided with a first slide bar 7 for moving the gantry processing equipment 2. The first slide bar 7 is used for moving both ends of the gantry processing equipment 2. It is made of aluminum alloy and has multiple stripes on its surface to improve visibility. The mobile platform 1 is symmetrically provided with a first groove and a second groove. The first groove is used to arrange the first slide bar 7. The first slide bar 7 is fixedly connected to the first groove by welding. Multiple limiting holes 6 are provided in the first groove. The limiting holes 6 are used to limit the movement of the gantry processing equipment 2 and prevent the gantry processing equipment 2 from continuing to move forward due to inertia. The limiting holes 6 are arranged linearly in the first groove.

[0025] The second groove is provided with a second slide bar 8. The second slide bar 8 is used to restrict the other end of the gantry processing equipment 2, so that it has an additional restriction during the movement and ensures smooth movement. The two ends of the second slide bar 8 are fixedly connected to the second groove by welding. The second slide bar 8 passes through the bottom of the gantry processing equipment 2. The bottom end of the gantry processing equipment 2 is provided with a sliding hole to facilitate movement under the restriction of the second slide bar 8.

[0026] The bottom of the gantry machining equipment 2 has symmetrical rectangular holes, each containing a column 9. The column 9 serves as a restraining component, fixed to a groove by welding. An adapter block 10 is mounted on the column 9. The adapter block 10 is primarily used for fixing the gantry machining equipment 2, allowing it to quickly descend after the equipment moves to a designated position, thus preventing inertia. The adapter block 10 is fitted with a restraining hole 6, the size of which must be determined based on the dimensions of the adapter block 10. A hole is formed in the middle of the adapter block 10 for the column 9 to pass through, allowing the adapter to... Block 10 can slide on column 9. The gantry processing equipment 2 is symmetrically provided with telescopic devices 11. The telescopic device 11 is a telescopic component in the prior art, which can be controlled by the operator through intelligent equipment and is a driving component. The telescopic device 11 is fixedly connected to the gantry processing equipment 2 and is fixed to the bottom of the gantry processing equipment 2 by fasteners and rivets. The other end of the telescopic device 11 is provided with a telescopic rod 12 for pulling up the adapter block 10. The telescopic rod 12 is the main component of the gantry processing equipment 2 for controlling the adapter block 10. The telescopic rod 12 is fixedly connected to the adapter block 10 by welding.

[0027] The top of the base block 3 is fixedly connected to the gantry processing equipment 2 via a drive rod 16. The drive rod 16 is a drive pipe in the prior art, which allows the base block 3 to be lifted while ensuring overall stability. The two ends of the base block 3 are fixedly connected to the gantry processing equipment 2 via connecting rods 13. The connecting rods 13 are auxiliary components used to guide the base block 3 in the correct direction on the sliding plate 4. The base block 3 is provided with multiple rubber pillars for anti-collision. The rubber pillars are made of rubber material. The gantry processing equipment 2 is symmetrically provided with square holes. The square holes are provided at both ends of the gantry processing equipment 2 to store compression spring pillars 14. The compression spring pillars 14 are provided in the square holes for lifting the gantry processing equipment 2. The two ends of the compression spring pillars 14 are fixedly connected to the gantry processing equipment 2 and fixed at both ends with round fasteners and rivets. The square holes are symmetrically provided with auxiliary connecting rods 15. The auxiliary connecting rods 15 are used to share the support of the compression spring pillars 14. The two ends of the auxiliary connecting rods 15 are fixedly connected to the gantry processing equipment 2 and fixed with them by square fasteners and rivets.

[0028] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0029] Ensure both moving platforms 1 are in their initial positions, with sliding plates 4 laid on the travel path of the gantry machining equipment 2. Sliding bars 5 abut against the base block 3, ensuring the gantry machining equipment 2 remains stable in its initial position. The telescopic device 11 is controlled via intelligent control to initiate operation. The telescopic rod 12 of the telescopic device 11 pushes the adapter block 10 upwards, releasing the restriction on the gantry machining equipment 2. As the adapter block 10 rises, the gantry machining equipment 2 can move smoothly along the first sliding bar 7 and the second sliding bar 8. The first sliding bar 7 and the second sliding bar 8 are located in different grooves on the moving platforms 1, ensuring stability and freedom of movement during the equipment's movement. Once the gantry machining equipment 2 has moved to the designated position, the telescopic device 11 is controlled via intelligent control to lower the telescopic rod 12, thereby lowering the adapter block 10. The adapter block 10 mates with the limiting hole 6, preventing the gantry machining equipment 2 from continuing to move due to inertia. After the adapter block 10 fixes the position of the gantry machining equipment 2, the equipment can perform its processing task. After processing is complete, the equipment can be moved back to the starting position or the next working position using the same steps.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
