Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to hole-opening equipment, specifically a hole-opening machine. Background Technology
[0002] Pipe drilling machines are widely used in pipe drilling operations. For example, a pipe drilling machine disclosed in the document titled "A Pressure Drilling Machine with Switchable Manual and Automatic Feed" (Document No. CN216758256U) includes a guiding mechanism, a feed mechanism, and a transmission mechanism. The feed mechanism has two modes: manual and automatic feed, which can be switched. In the automatic feed mode, by moving a lever, the second gear meshes with the first and second gears respectively. The motor drives the third, second, and first gears to mesh, and the first gear drives the threaded rod to rotate. In the manual feed mode, by moving a lever, the second gear disengages from the first and second gears respectively. At this time, the threaded rod is driven to rotate by manually turning the handwheel.
[0003] In the aforementioned literature, because the lever lacks a corresponding limiting structure, it remains in a free state, making it impossible to guarantee the stability of the lever's posture in both manual and automatic feed modes. In automatic feed mode, the second gear may disengage from the first and third gears due to changes in the lever's position, ultimately preventing automatic feed from being achieved. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a hole-opening machine that ensures the stability of both manual and automatic feed processes.
[0005] This utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: A hole-opening machine, comprising a front frame and a rear frame, with a slide block slidably mounted on a guide rail between the front and rear frames. A spindle tube is connected to the slide block, forming an axial limiting and circumferential rotational fit between the spindle tube and the slide block. A nut is fixedly connected to the slide block. An axial feed drive mechanism is mounted on the rear frame, with a power output screw on the axial feed drive mechanism and a screw-nut fit with the nut fixedly connected to the slide block. The power output screw is concentric with the spindle tube and arranged parallel to the guide rail direction. A rotary drive mechanism is mounted on the slide block, with its torque output end connected to the rear end of the spindle tube and driving the spindle tube to rotate around the core. The tube of the spindle tube is mounted on the front frame. The guide support hole is connected to the front end of the spindle tube and the tool is connected. The axial feed drive mechanism on the rear frame includes a manual feed mechanism and an automatic feed mechanism. A screw torque input gear is provided on the power output screw on the rear end face of the rear frame. The manual torque output gear of the manual feed mechanism and the automatic torque output gear of the automatic feed mechanism mesh with the screw torque input gear. The automatic torque output gear is loosely fitted on the automatic torque shaft. An axial sliding and circumferential limiting sleeve is provided on the automatic torque shaft. A limiting groove is provided on the side of the sleeve facing the automatic torque output gear. The limiting groove and the limiting teeth on the side of the automatic torque output gear form a circumferential limiting and axial sliding fit. A lever for driving the sleeve to move axially along the automatic torque shaft is also provided on the rear frame.
[0006] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0007] By setting an axially sliding and circumferentially limiting sleeve, and cooperating with the lever to drive the sleeve, the synchronous rotation of the automatic torque output gear and the automatic torque shaft can be achieved by utilizing the two states of engagement and disengagement of the limiting groove and the limiting tooth, as well as the idling of the automatic torque output gear, thereby realizing two feeding modes. Furthermore, since the position of the sleeve on the automatic torque shaft is stable when the lever drives the sleeve to the engagement or disengagement state of the limiting groove and the limiting tooth, it is beneficial to achieve the stability of the feeding process in automatic or manual feeding modes.

[0015] Please see Figure 1-9 As shown, a drilling machine includes a front frame 11 and a rear frame 12 mounted on a frame 10. A slide block 30 is slidably mounted on a guide rail 13 between the front frame 11 and the rear frame 12. A spindle tube 40 is connected to the slide block 30, forming an axial limiting and circumferential rotational fit between the spindle tube 40 and the slide block 30. A nut 31 is fixedly connected to the slide block 30. An axial feed drive mechanism is mounted on the rear frame 12. A power output screw 50 on the axial feed drive mechanism and the nut 31 fixedly connected to the slide block 30 form a screw-nut fit. The power output screw 50 is concentric with the spindle tube 40 and arranged parallel to the guiding direction of the guide rail 13. A rotary drive mechanism 20 is mounted on the slide block 30. The torque output end of the rotary drive mechanism 20 is connected to the rear end of the spindle tube 40 and drives the spindle tube 40 to rotate around the core. The tube of the spindle tube 40 is inserted into a guide support hole on the front frame 11. The front end of the spindle tube 40 is connected to the cutting tool. The axial feed drive mechanism on the rear frame 12 includes a manual feed mechanism 60 and an automatic feed mechanism 70. A screw torque input gear 51 is provided on the power output screw 50 at the rear end face of the rear frame 12. The manual torque output gear 61 of the manual feed mechanism 60 and the automatic torque output gear 71 of the automatic feed mechanism 70 mesh with the screw torque input gear 51. The automatic torque output gear 71 is loosely fitted on the automatic torque shaft 72. The automatic torque shaft 72 is provided with a sliding sleeve 73 that slides axially and limits circumferentially. The sliding sleeve 73 is provided with a limiting groove 731 on the side facing the automatic torque output gear 71. The limiting groove 731 and the limiting tooth 711 on the side of the automatic torque output gear 71 form a circumferential limiting and axial sliding fit. The rear frame 12 is also provided with a lever 81 for driving the sliding sleeve 73 to move axially along the automatic torque shaft 72.
[0016] In the above scheme, the connection between the sliding sleeve 73 and the automatic torque shaft 72 can be selected as a spline connection. By setting the sliding sleeve 73 with axial sliding and circumferential limiting, and cooperating with the lever 81 to drive the sliding sleeve 73, the synchronous rotation of the automatic torque output gear 71 and the automatic torque shaft 72 can be realized by utilizing the two states of engagement and disengagement of the limiting groove 731 and the limiting tooth 711, as well as the free rotation of the automatic torque output gear 71. This ensures that in the automatic feed mode, the automatic torque output gear 71 will not drive the synchronous rotation of the automatic torque shaft 72. Therefore, the load in the manual feed mode is small and the operation is more labor-saving. At the same time, when the lever 81 drives the sliding sleeve 73 to a stable and reliable engagement or disengagement state between the limiting groove 731 and the limiting tooth 711, the position of the sliding sleeve 73 on the automatic torque shaft 72 is stable, which is beneficial to the stability of the feed process in the automatic or manual feed modes.
[0017] In the implementation of the above scheme, the axial feed drive mechanism drives the slide 30 to move along the guide rail 13 towards the front support 11, so that the tool reaches the pipe to be drilled. Then, the rotation drive mechanism 20 drives the spindle tube 40 to rotate, thereby driving the tool to rotate and thus achieving the drilling of the pipe to be drilled. The axial feed drive mechanism includes a manual feed mechanism 60 and an automatic feed mechanism 70, so that the feed mode is divided into manual feed and automatic feed. The manual feed mechanism 60 is operated manually to achieve precise control of the feed amount, and the automatic feed mechanism 70 is driven by a motor. When it is necessary to change the automatic feed mode to the manual feed mode, the lever 81 drives the slide sleeve 73 to move axially along the automatic torque shaft 72, so that the limiting groove 731 and the limiting tooth 711 are completely separated. Since the automatic torque output gear 71 is loosely fitted on the automatic torque shaft 72, the automatic torque output gear 71 cannot drive the automatic torque shaft 72 to rotate. When the worker drives the manual torque shaft 62 to rotate, thereby driving the manual torque output gear 61, the manual torque output gear 61, the lead screw torque input gear 51, and the automatic torque output gear 71 engage. This causes the lead screw torque input gear 51 to drive the lead screw 50 to rotate, causing the slide 30 to feed along the guide rail 13. Meanwhile, the automatic torque output gear 71 will be in an idle state and will not affect the automatic torque shaft 72. Similarly, when changing from manual feed mode to automatic feed mode, the lever 81 is used to push the sliding sleeve 73, so that the limiting groove 731 and the limiting tooth 711 are engaged. This ensures that the sliding sleeve 73, the automatic torque output gear 71, and the automatic torque shaft 72 move synchronously. Thus, when the motor drives the automatic torque shaft 72 to rotate, the automatic feed mode can be achieved. In the automatic feed mode, the manual torque shaft 62 will be rotating, and the sliding sleeve 73 and the automatic torque shaft 72 can be optionally splined.
[0018] A gearbox 14 is provided on the rear frame 12, and the lead screw torque input gear 51, the automatic torque output gear 71 and the manual torque output gear 61 are all located in the gearbox 14. The gearbox 14 is provided to set the working environment of the lead screw torque input gear 51, the automatic torque output gear 71 and the manual torque output gear 61, so as to avoid the gears being corroded by external gases.
[0019] A rotating shaft 82 is rotatably mounted on the gearbox 14 housing. A swing arm 83 is connected to the shaft body outside the gearbox 14, and a positioning pin 84 is connected to the free suspension end of the swing arm 83. A lever 81 is connected to the shaft body inside the gearbox 14 where the rotating shaft 82 is located. The rotating shaft 82 and the positioning pin 84 are parallel, and the rotating shaft 82 is perpendicular to the main shaft tube 40. The lever 81 is parallel to the coplanar plane of the rotating shaft 82 and the positioning pin 84, or the lever 81, the rotating shaft 82, and the positioning pin 84 are coplanar. The other side of the lever 81... The end is inserted into the annular groove 732. A spring 85 is provided between the positioning pin 84 and the rocker arm 83. The spring 85 provides elastic force to drive one end of the positioning pin 84 to abut against the outer wall of the gearbox 14 or the positioning hole 141 provided on the gearbox 14. The positioning holes 141 are arranged at intervals on the rotation path of the positioning pin 84, and the two positioning holes 141 are respectively engaged or disengaged from the limiting groove 731 provided on one side of the sliding sleeve 73 and the limiting tooth 711 of the automatic torque output gear 71.
[0020] In the above description, when switching from automatic feed mode to manual feed mode, first pull the positioning pin 84 upward so that the bottom end of the positioning pin 84 leaves the outer wall of the gearbox 14 or the positioning hole 141 provided on the gearbox 14. At the same time, the spring 85 is in a compressed state. Then, rotate the swing arm 83 so that the rotating shaft 82 drives the lever 81 to rotate together. This causes the lever 81 to drive the sliding sleeve 73 away from the automatic torque output tooth 71. When the limiting groove 731 and the limiting tooth 711 are in the separated position, the bottom end of the positioning pin 84 is just above the other positioning hole 141. After releasing the positioning pin 84, the spring 85 springs out. The force causes the positioning pin 84 to abut against the positioning hole 141. At this time, the position of the lever 81 is fixed, which further limits the position of the sliding sleeve 73 on the automatic torque shaft 72, thereby further improving the stability of the feed process in automatic feed mode. Similarly, after switching from manual feed mode to automatic feed mode, the bottom end of the positioning pin 84 abuts against the positioning hole 141, which also further limits the position of the lever 81 and the position of the sliding sleeve 73 on the automatic torque shaft 72 in this mode, thereby further improving the stability of the feed process in manual feed mode.
