Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CNC rotary table technology, specifically to a quick-change roller cam four-axis mechanism and its CNC rotary table. Background Technology

[0002] The roller cam within a CNC rotary table is the core power transmission component, primarily used to achieve indexing positioning and circumferential feed motion. Its working principle involves continuous contact between the cam profile curve and the driven roller, converting the continuous rotational motion of the input shaft into intermittent rotation or precise angular displacement of the output shaft. It typically works in conjunction with a gear reduction mechanism to adjust the speed ratio, and utilizes the cam curve design to control the motion law, such as employing a modified sine curve or trapezoidal curve to reduce impact. This structure transmits torque through the rolling friction between the cam disc and the roller, and with preload to eliminate transmission backlash, it ensures the rotary table possesses high repeatability, high rigidity, and low friction characteristics, making it suitable for the indexing rotation and dynamic response requirements in multi-process composite machining.

[0003] Because the transmission of a roller cam relies on the rolling friction between the cam disc and the roller to transmit torque, it is prone to damage and grinding off under heavy loads or insufficient lubrication. This results in discrepancies between the two, reducing rotational accuracy and affecting machining accuracy and product quality. Such situations require frequent machine downtime for maintenance. However, since the cam is not easily removed for maintenance or replacement, downtime is long, impacting machining efficiency. To address these issues, this invention provides a quick-change roller cam four-axis mechanism and its CNC rotary table to solve the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content
