The tapered sleeve is installed inside the spindle tapered hole of the machine tool housing. Axial force is applied by an adjusting screw installed inside the tapered sleeve to achieve axial positioning of the workpiece, solving the problem of axial movement during turning and cutting, improving machining accuracy and extending the workpiece length. The outer tapered surface of the tapered sleeve has the same taper as the spindle tapered hole of the machine tool housing, and an interference fit is used to absorb axial force.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] This utility model provides a positioning device for lathe machining, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown, the machine tool housing 5 includes a tapered sleeve 1, which is installed inside the spindle tapered hole 51 of the machine tool housing 5. An axial force is applied by an adjusting screw 3 installed inside the tapered sleeve 1 to achieve axial positioning of the workpiece 8, solving the problem of axial movement during turning and cutting, improving machining accuracy, and extending the length of the workpiece 8. The outer tapered surface of the tapered sleeve 1 matches the taper of the spindle tapered hole 51 of the machine tool housing 5, and an interference fit is used to absorb axial force. The adjusting screw 3 includes a threaded section 31 and a smooth section 32. A positioning end face 33 is installed at the end of the adjusting screw 3. A circular positioning hole 11 is provided at one end of the tapered sleeve 1 for positioning the adjusting screw 3. Through the structural design of the tapered sleeve 1 installed inside the spindle tapered hole 51 of the machine tool housing 5, and by utilizing the adjusting screw 3 (including the threaded section 31 and the smooth section 32) installed inside the tapered sleeve 1 to apply axial force, stable axial positioning of the workpiece 8 is achieved. This design effectively solves the problem of axial movement of the workpiece 8 during turning and cutting, significantly improving machining accuracy. Meanwhile, the outer tapered surface of the tapered sleeve 1 matches the taper of the spindle tapered hole 51 of the machine tool housing 5, and an interference fit is used, which can effectively absorb axial force and enhance positioning stability. In addition, the positioning end face 33 installed at the end of the adjusting screw 3 matches the circular positioning hole 11 at one end of the tapered sleeve 1, which further ensures the accuracy and reliability of positioning, and also facilitates the extension of the length of the workpiece 8 or the change of its positioning position by adjusting the adjusting screw 3, thus meeting the needs of high-precision lathe machining.
[0023] In this embodiment, a nylon retaining sleeve 2 is provided at the step of the tapered sleeve 1. The inner hole of the nylon retaining sleeve 2 is threaded, and the outer side is provided with a step that interferes with the tapered sleeve 1. The design of the nylon retaining sleeve 2 to interfere with the tapered sleeve 1 enhances the fixing stability of the tapered sleeve 1 within the spindle tapered hole 51 of the machine tool housing 5. The threaded inner hole of the nylon retaining sleeve 2 provides a basis for the installation and adjustment of the adjusting screw 3.
[0024] Specifically, the adjusting screw 3 is threaded into the inner hole of the nylon retaining sleeve 2. A hexagonal nut 4 is threaded onto the threaded section 31 of the adjusting screw 3. By adjusting the distance between the positioning end face 33 of the adjusting screw 3 and the end of the nylon retaining sleeve 2, the length of the workpiece 8 can be extended. After adjustment, the hexagonal nut 4 is used to lock and fix the screw. The threaded fit design between the adjusting screw 3 and the nylon retaining sleeve 2 allows the adjusting screw 3 to move easily along the axial direction. By adjusting the distance between the positioning end face 33 and the end of the nylon retaining sleeve 2, the length of the workpiece 8 can be extended or its positioning position adjusted. The locking and fixing of the hexagonal nut 4 ensures the stability after adjustment and prevents the adjusting screw 3 from loosening during processing.
[0025] Furthermore, a chuck 6 and a self-centering jaw 7 are installed on the end of the machine tool housing 5 near the workpiece 8. The installation of the chuck 6 and the self-centering jaw 7 provides additional clamping and positioning support for the workpiece 8, enhances the stability of the workpiece 8 during the machining process, and prevents the workpiece 8 from shaking or shifting.
[0026] Furthermore, a spindle straight hole 52 is provided at the end of the machine tool housing 5 away from the spindle tapered hole 51. The design of the spindle straight hole 52 provides space for the installation or connection of other components or accessories of the machine tool, increasing the functionality and expandability of the machine tool.
[0027] Furthermore, the positioning hole 11 is adapted to the size of the smooth section 32 of the adjusting screw 3. The adaptation of the positioning hole 11 to the size of the smooth section 32 of the adjusting screw 3 ensures the accurate positioning and stable installation of the adjusting screw 3 within the tapered sleeve 1, thereby improving the overall accuracy and stability of the positioning device.
[0028] In use, the positioning device for lathe machining of this utility model first installs the tapered sleeve 1 inside the spindle tapered hole 51 of the machine tool housing 5. Its outer tapered surface matches the taper of the spindle tapered hole 51, and an interference fit is used. This design allows the tapered sleeve 1 to be firmly fixed inside the spindle tapered hole 51, while effectively absorbing the axial force generated during machining, thus enhancing the stability of positioning.
[0029] The adjusting screw 3 is installed inside the tapered sleeve 1 and includes a threaded section 31 and a smooth section 32. A positioning end face 33 is installed at the end of the adjusting screw 3, which mates with a circular positioning hole 11 at one end of the tapered sleeve 1. By rotating the adjusting screw 3, an axial force can be applied, enabling the workpiece 8 to achieve stable axial positioning. This design effectively solves the problem of axial movement of the workpiece 8 during turning and cutting processes, significantly improving machining accuracy.
[0030] A nylon retaining sleeve 2 is provided at the step of the tapered sleeve 1. The inner hole of the nylon retaining sleeve 2 is threaded and the outer hole is interference-fitted with the tapered sleeve 1. The design of the nylon retaining sleeve 2 enhances the stability of the tapered sleeve 1 in the spindle taper hole 51 of the machine tool housing 5, and at the same time provides a basis for the installation and adjustment of the adjusting screw 3.
[0031] The adjusting screw 3 is threaded into the inner hole of the nylon retaining sleeve 2, and a hexagonal nut 4 is threaded onto the threaded section 31 of the adjusting screw 3. By rotating the adjusting screw 3, the distance between its positioning end face 33 and the end of the nylon retaining sleeve 2 can be adjusted, thereby extending the length of the workpiece 8 or adjusting its positioning position. After adjustment, the adjusting screw 3 is locked in place by tightening the hexagonal nut 4 to prevent it from loosening during processing.
[0032] A chuck 6 and a self-centering jaw 7 are mounted on the end of the machine tool housing 5 near the workpiece 8. The chuck 6 and the self-centering jaw 7 provide additional clamping and positioning support for the workpiece 8, enhancing the stability of the workpiece 8 during machining and preventing the workpiece 8 from shaking or shifting.
[0033] The machine tool housing 5 has a spindle straight hole 52 at the end away from the spindle tapered hole 51. The spindle straight hole 52 provides space for the installation or connection of other parts or accessories of the machine tool, increasing the functionality and expandability of the machine tool.
[0034] The positioning hole 11 is sized to match the smooth section 32 of the adjusting screw 3, ensuring accurate positioning and stable installation of the adjusting screw 3 within the tapered sleeve 1. This design improves the overall accuracy and stability of the positioning device.
