[0031] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a spray cooling mechanism and a power turret, including:

[0033] Support mechanism 1 serves as the installation foundation for the entire spray cooling system and is independently and fixedly installed.

[0034] The threaded column 2 is installed on the support mechanism 1, and a guide groove is provided on the outer wall of the threaded column 2 along the length direction;

[0035] The movable part 3 is slidably installed on the threaded column 2 along the length direction, and a positioning part 4 is provided in the through hole of the movable part 3. The positioning part 4 is slidably connected with the guide groove of the threaded column 2.

[0036] The adapter pipe 5 is mounted on the movable part 3 via the mounting base 9. As a key component of the water flow channel, the adapter pipe 5 is equipped with an extension pipe 6, which is connected to the water pump supply pipe to form a complete water circulation path.

[0037] Spray head 7 is installed at the outlet of the adapter pipe 5. Spray head 7 can be replaced with products of different spray angles or flow rates according to different processing requirements.

[0038] Drive mechanism 8 is mounted on moving part 3. Drive mechanism 8 is used to move moving part 3 along the length direction of threaded post 2.

[0039] In this embodiment, the support mechanism 1 serves as the installation base, providing stable support for the entire system and ensuring operational stability. The threaded column 2 is installed on it, and the moving part 3, through the positioning part 4 and the guide groove, can slide smoothly along the length of the threaded column 2 to precisely adjust the spray position. The adapter pipe 5 is fixed to the moving part 3 with the help of the mounting base 9 and is connected to the water pump supply pipe of the extension pipe 6 to build a smooth water circulation channel and ensure stable water delivery. The spray head 7 is installed at the outlet of the adapter pipe 5. The diverse specifications allow it to flexibly adjust the spray angle and flow rate according to different processing scenarios to meet personalized cooling needs. The drive mechanism 8 is installed on the moving part 3 and can precisely drive the moving part 3 to move along the threaded column 2 to achieve automatic adjustment of the spray position without frequent manual intervention, thus improving work efficiency.

[0040] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the drive mechanism 8 includes:

[0041] The threaded tube 81 is rotatably installed in the inner hole of the movable part 3, and the threaded tube 81 is fitted with the threaded post 2.

[0042] The drive motor 82 is mounted on the movable part 3, and the output end of the drive motor 82 is coaxially mounted with the drive gear 83;

[0043] Driven gear 84 is coaxially mounted on threaded tube 81, and driven gear 84 is meshed with driving gear 83;

[0044] In this embodiment, the drive motor 82 is mounted on the moving part 3, providing a stable power source for the entire driving process. The drive gear 83 at its output end meshes with the driven gear 84 coaxially mounted on the threaded tube 81. The rotational motion of the motor is stably transmitted to the threaded tube 81 through gear transmission. The threaded tube 81 is rotatably mounted in the inner hole of the moving part 3 and cooperates with the threaded column 2. Under the drive of the driven gear 84, the rotational motion is converted into linear motion along the threaded column 2, thereby driving the moving part 3 to slide smoothly and accurately control the spray position, realizing the automation of spray position adjustment. By controlling the speed and direction of the drive motor 82, the moving speed and direction of the moving part 3 can be flexibly adjusted.

[0045] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the moving part 3 is provided with an isolation part 85, and both the driving gear 83 and the driven gear 84 are located in the isolation part 85;

[0046] In this embodiment, the isolation element 85 can effectively prevent impurities such as chips and coolant generated during the processing from entering the meshing area of ​​the driving gear 83 and the driven gear 84, avoiding impurities from causing gear wear, jamming or transmission failure, and extending the service life of the gears.

[0047] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figure 2 As shown, a sensor 86 is provided on the spray head 7. The sensor 86 is electrically connected to the drive motor 82. The sensor 86 is used to adjust the displacement of the spray head 7 to adapt to the length of the cutter.

[0048] In this embodiment, a displacement sensor or laser rangefinder 86 is provided on the spray head 7. The sensor 86 is electrically connected to the drive motor 82 via a signal line to form a closed-loop control system. The sensor 86 is mainly used to detect the extension length of the current machining tool in real time and feed the detected data back to the control system. After analyzing the data according to the preset program, the control system outputs control commands to the drive motor 82, thereby automatically adjusting the sliding position of the moving part 3 along the threaded column 2 so that the spray head 7 is always aligned with the tool.

[0049] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the support mechanism 1 includes:

[0050] Cylinder 11 is mounted on the power turret;

[0051] Assembly 12 is installed at the output end of cylinder 11, and threaded post 2 is installed in the fixing hole of assembly 12;

[0052] In this embodiment, the cylinder 11 is installed on the power turret and can make the spray head 7 accurately adapt to the tool position under different processing conditions by telescopic movement according to processing requirements. The assembly 12 is installed on the output end of the cylinder 11, and its fixing hole provides a reliable mounting base for the threaded column 2, ensuring the stability of the threaded column 2 during support and movement, and avoiding shaking or displacement that affects the spraying effect.

[0053] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a slide rail 13 is slidably installed in the through groove of the assembly 12, and the slide rail 13 is fixedly installed on the power turret.

[0054] In this embodiment, the slide rail 13 is fixedly installed on the power turret, providing precise sliding guidance for the assembly 12. When the cylinder 11 drives the assembly 12 to move, the slide rail 13 ensures that the assembly 12 slides smoothly along a fixed direction, avoiding deviation or shaking caused by uneven force or external interference, and effectively improving the stability of the threaded column 2 and the entire spray cooling mechanism during the movement process.

[0055] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the threaded column 2 is provided with at least two guide grooves;

[0056] In this embodiment, multiple guide grooves cooperate with the positioning element 4 in the through hole of the moving part 3 to form multiple sets of guide structures, which can constrain and support the moving part 3 from multiple directions, effectively preventing the moving part 3 from tilting, rotating or deviating during the sliding along the threaded column 2, ensuring that it slides smoothly along a straight line, thereby making the moving trajectory of the spray head 7 more precise and improving the accuracy of the cooling position adjustment.

[0057] A power turret employs the spray cooling mechanism of this utility model;

[0058] In this embodiment, the spray cooling mechanism can be flexibly adjusted according to the processing conditions, enhancing the adaptability of the power turret to complex processing environments. The synergistic effect of each component provides efficient, stable, and intelligent cooling protection for the power turret, effectively extending the tool life, reducing equipment downtime due to failure, and improving the overall processing efficiency and market competitiveness of the power turret.
