[0033] Spindle 2 is used to hold the cutting tools. It rotates and has a water outlet in the middle. The water enters through the oil seal rotating block.
[0034] The oil seal fixing block 4 is used to fix the oil seal. It has three grooves on its outer surface. Two of them are for installing sealing rings, namely the first sealing ring 3 and the second sealing ring 5. The middle groove is for circulating water and has four water inlet holes. The inner hole has two steps, inner and outer, for installing oil seals, namely the first oil seal 6 and the fourth oil seal 19, to prevent water leakage.
[0035] The first bearing 7 and the second bearing 17 are fixed on the outer circle of the power head housing and on the inner circle of the main shaft 2, serving to fix them during high-speed rotation.
[0036] The first retaining ring 10 and the third retaining ring 27 are used to retain the outer circle of the needle roller bearing 25, and the second retaining ring 26 is used to retain the inner circle of the needle roller bearing 25 to prevent the bearing from moving.
[0037] When the equipment rotates at high speed, nut 9 serves to fix the spindle 2 and the bearing.
[0038] When the main shaft 2 rotates at high speed, the second oil seal 11 prevents debris and water from entering from the rear, and the third oil seal 15 prevents debris and water from entering from the front.
[0039] When the equipment rotates at high speed, the first semicircular cutter 12 and the second semicircular cutter 28 serve a fixing function.
[0040] The oil seal rotating block 21 is fixed on the main shaft 2. The first oil seal 6 and the fourth oil seal 19 are installed on the outer circle of the oil seal fixing block 4. When the main shaft 2 rotates at high speed, it prevents water from leaking out. The inner circle of the oil seal fixing block 4 has two grooves for installing the fourth sealing ring 20 and the fifth sealing ring 22. When the main shaft 2 and the oil seal fixing block 4 are connected, it prevents leakage. The outer circle of the oil seal fixing block 4 has four water inlets. Water enters from the oil seal fixing block and then enters the main shaft 2 through the oil seal rotating block.
[0041] The spindle 2 has a pin 13 inside and a coupling 14 at one end.
[0042] The coupling 14 mainly connects the spindle 2 and the turret, and plays a rotating role. It is fixed by a semi-circular cutter and a C-shaped cutter pin 13.
[0043] The surface of the power housing 1 is provided with a front cover 12, and the interior of the front cover 12 is provided with a third sealing ring 18.
[0044] The front cover is used to fix the power housing, the first bearing 7, and the third oil seal 15.
[0045] The power housing 1 is internally threaded with a first screw 33 and a second screw 34.
[0046] The first screw 33 and the second screw 34 are sealing screws for the power housing.
[0047] Both the fourth sealing ring 20 and the fifth sealing ring 22 are fitted onto the surface of the main shaft 2.
[0048] The power housing 1 has multiple slots inside, and the milling power head also includes a first fixing block 8, a second fixing block 23, a third fixing block 30 and a fourth fixing block 30. The first fixing block 8, the second fixing block 23, the third fixing block 30 and the fourth fixing block 30 are respectively fixedly installed inside the multiple slots.
[0049] Multiple fixing blocks are used to install the power housing 1.
[0050] The power housing 1 has two water inlets inside. The milling power head also includes a seventh sealing ring 29 and an eighth sealing ring 32, which are respectively fixedly installed inside the two water inlets.
[0051] Compared to other water outlet methods, the center water outlet of spindle 2 has lower noise. This is because the liquid flows very stably across the central axis, reducing friction and vibration-induced noise. As a result, the mechanical equipment experiences less vibration during transmission, achieving better mechanical performance.
[0052] The liquid flow from the center outlet flows along the central axis, and the liquid momentum is very balanced in all directions. Therefore, the mechanical equipment experiences less vibration during transmission, which can achieve better mechanical effects.
[0053] The center outlet coolant can be pressurized to allow the coolant to be directly transferred to the tool tip through the inside of the spindle, thereby increasing the cutting speed and improving production efficiency.
[0054] Because the central water outlet can effectively cool the cutting tool and flush away broken chips and debris during machining, it reduces the frequency of tool replacement due to clogging or overheating.
[0055] In deep hole machining, the center-outlet spindle can achieve the requirement of one-time through-hole drilling without steps, solving the accuracy deviation or misalignment problem caused by drilling at both ends and improving the machining accuracy.
[0056] In areas requiring high hygiene standards, such as medical equipment and food processing equipment, central outlet systems can meet the hygiene standards for liquid media.
[0057] Compared with related technologies, the milling power head for combined machine tools provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0058] This utility model provides a milling power head for a combination machine tool. By using multiple sealing rings and oil seals, the front cover 16 and the power housing 1, as well as the power housing 1 and the spindle 2, are sealed to reduce leakage. At the same time, water is discharged from the center of the machine through the central spindle 2 and the central spindle axis, providing stable transmission characteristics. This ensures that the transmission of liquid media will not be interrupted or leaked due to eccentricity, shaking, or other problems. It also provides effective internal cooling for the tool tip, improving tool durability and reducing the risk of tool wear and breakage.
