Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of milling tool replacement technology, and in particular to a high-precision milling tool quick replacement device for mold processing. Background Technology

[0002] Molds are various shapes and tools used in industrial production to obtain desired products through methods such as injection molding, blow molding, extrusion, die casting, forging, smelting, and stamping. They primarily achieve the shaping of objects by altering the physical state of the material being molded. They possess specific contours or internal cavity shapes, causing the blank to separate along the contour lines or obtain a corresponding three-dimensional shape. Milling cutters play a crucial role in mold manufacturing, helping to achieve precise machining and efficient production.

[0003] In mold making, the rapid change of high-precision milling tools typically relies on a tool holder, secured by fasteners such as bolts. When bolts strip due to prolonged use or improper operation, their tightening force decreases significantly, or even fails completely. This leads to instability in the connection between the tool holder and the machine tool, consequently affecting machining accuracy and safety.

[0004] Stripped bolts often require additional force or tools to overcome their damaged threads during disassembly. This not only increases the difficulty of disassembly but may also cause further damage to the tool holder or machine tool. In extreme cases, destructive disassembly methods, such as cutting the bolt, may be necessary, which undoubtedly increases repair costs and time.

[0005] Stripped fasteners can also prevent complete removal, leaving some fastener residue on the machine tool or tool holder that may hinder subsequent installation. This not only affects replacement efficiency but can also damage new fasteners. Utility Model Content

[0025] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0026] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, a high-precision milling tool quick-change device for mold processing is disclosed. The device mainly consists of a tool changing seat 1, a connecting seat 2, a docking seat 3, and a replaceable tool 4. The connecting seat 2 is installed at the front end of the tool changing seat 1, and the replaceable tool 4 is connected to the tool changing seat 1 through the docking seat 3, thereby realizing quick replacement.

[0027] The outer end of the docking seat 3 is designed with a docking hole 6 that is adapted to the structure of the tool changing seat 1. The side wall of the tool changing seat 1 is provided with an insertion hole 5, and the docking seat 3 is correspondingly provided with a pin hole 7 that matches the insertion hole 5. A fixing pin 8 is inserted into the pin hole 7, and in this way, the tool changing seat 1 and the docking seat 3 can achieve a stable connection.

[0028] Both the docking seat 3 and the connecting seat 2 are provided with threaded portions 9, and a connecting collar 10 is fitted onto the threaded portions 9. The side wall of the connecting collar 10 is connected to the arc-shaped abutment block 11 by fasteners 12. By rotating the connecting collar 10, it can cover and abut against the fixing pin 8, thereby achieving a firm fixation of the fixing pin 8 and facilitating quick disassembly and replacement of the replaceable tool 4.

[0029] The threaded part 9 and the mating seat 3 are integrated, while the threaded part 9 and the connecting seat 2 are connected by a fixed connection. The threaded part 9 and the connecting sleeve 10 are fitted by a thread, and the side wall of the connecting sleeve 10 is also provided with anti-slip protrusions to enhance the grip during operation.

[0030] The insertion hole 5 is designed as a through hole, allowing the fixing pin 8 to pass through the insertion hole 5 and be inserted into another blind hole in the docking seat 3, thereby achieving a stable connection between the replaceable tool 4 and the docking seat 3. To further enhance the stability of the connection, an anti-slip ring is also provided at the mating point between the replaceable tool 4 and the docking seat 3.

[0031] Fastener 12 mainly consists of a bolt and an anti-slip washer, with the anti-slip washer fitted onto the bolt. The bolt is inserted into the opening on the end face of the arc-shaped clamping block 11, and the arc-shaped clamping block 11 is fixed to the connecting sleeve 10 by the bolt. To prevent slippage during operation, an anti-slip strip is also provided at the connection between the arc-shaped clamping block 11 and the connecting sleeve 10.

[0032] The arc-shaped clamping block 11 has a "C"-shaped cross-section, and its inner wall is bonded with a clamping rubber pad. The clamping rubber pad is firmly attached to the inner wall of the arc-shaped clamping block 11 by adhesive to provide better clamping effect and anti-slip function.

[0033] The fixed pin 8 has a structure consisting of three parts: a large-diameter pin, a small-diameter pin, and a clamping head. The clamping head is located at the top of the large-diameter pin, while the small-diameter pin is located at the bottom of the large-diameter pin. The small-diameter pin passes through the replaceable tool 4, and the large-diameter pin is inserted into the pin hole 7, thereby ensuring a tight fit between the tool changer 1 and the mating seat 3.

[0034] First, rotate the connecting collar 10 so that it no longer obstructs the retaining pin 8.

Rotate the connecting collar 10 again to cover and press against the retaining pin 8, ensuring it is securely fixed. Use fasteners 12 (bolts and anti-slip washers) to secure the arc-shaped clamping block 11 to the connecting collar 10. Finally, ensure all connecting parts are securely fixed, and a stable connection is established between the replaceable tool 4 and the mating seat 3. The replacement process for the high-precision milling tool quick-change device is now complete.
