Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical equipment, specifically relating to a spindle encoder connection structure suitable for vertical lathes. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the measurement of physical quantities (speed, direction, synchronous motion, fault detection, etc.) of vertical lathe spindles mostly adopts the use of synchronous belts combined with encoders. However, this method increases the accuracy during machining, the complexity of installation, and the inconvenience of maintenance. Moreover, synchronous belts are prone to aging over time, which increases the uncertainty of the results and makes it difficult to replace the corresponding parts after aging. In addition, this method will cause some wear to the synchronous belt pulley, further increasing the cost of use. Utility Model Content
[0003] Purpose of the utility model: In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a spindle encoder connection structure suitable for vertical lathes.
[0004] Technical solution: A spindle encoder connection structure suitable for vertical lathes, comprising: spindle sleeve, encoder, encoder ring, V-belt pulley and spindle;
[0005] A spindle sleeve is fixedly fitted onto the spindle, and the encoder is fixedly installed on a related part connected to the spindle sleeve. The spindle is connected to a V-belt pulley, which drives the spindle to rotate. The encoder ring is directly fixedly installed on the V-belt pulley. The rotation of the V-belt pulley drives the encoder ring to rotate. The encoder measures the rotation of the encoder ring and outputs a corresponding signal to achieve synchronous rotation with the spindle.
[0006] As an optimization: the spindle sleeve is a fixed component.
[0007] As an optimization: the aforementioned coding ring is used to detect the corresponding data in the first instance.
[0008] Beneficial effects: This invention reduces costs, simplifies the structure, has a low failure rate, and is easy to install, manufacture, and maintain. By adopting an installation method that directly connects the encoder ring to the main shaft, the number of parts is greatly reduced, and installation is significantly easier, further reducing machine manufacturing time and material costs. Simultaneously, by eliminating the related structures of the synchronous belt, synchronous belt transmission errors are eliminated, and measured values are directly imported into the encoder, improving data accuracy and precision retention. Compared to synchronous belt drives, the direct-connection structure also avoids the replacement and downtime required for replacing worn or aged synchronous belts after prolonged use. This reduces machine operating costs and improves processing efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0010] Example
[0011] like Figure 1 As shown, a spindle encoder connection structure suitable for vertical lathes includes: spindle sleeve 1, encoder 2, encoder ring 3, V-belt pulley 4 and spindle 5.
[0012] A spindle sleeve 1 is fixedly fitted onto the spindle 5, serving as a fixing component. The encoder 2 is fixedly mounted on a related component connected to the spindle sleeve 1. The spindle 5 is connected to a V-belt pulley 4, which drives the spindle 5 to rotate. The encoder ring 3 is directly fixedly mounted on the V-belt pulley 4 for immediate data detection. The rotation of the V-belt pulley 4 drives the encoder ring 3 to rotate, and the encoder 2 measures the rotation of the encoder ring 3, outputting a corresponding signal to achieve synchronous rotation with the spindle 5.
[0013] This invention reduces costs, simplifies the structure, has a low failure rate, and is easy to install, manufacture, and maintain. By adopting an installation method that directly connects the encoder ring to the main shaft, the number of parts is greatly reduced, and installation is significantly easier, further reducing machine manufacturing time and material costs. Simultaneously, by eliminating the related structures of the synchronous belt, synchronous belt drive errors are eliminated, and measured values are directly imported into the encoder, improving data accuracy and precision retention. Compared to synchronous belt drives, the direct-drive structure also avoids the replacement and downtime required for replacing worn or aged synchronous belts after prolonged use. This reduces machine operating costs and improves processing efficiency.
