Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining technology, and more specifically, to a machining equipment. Background Technology

[0002] For parts that require machining from multiple angles, current machining equipment typically requires multiple clamping operations to process structural features from different angles.

[0003] Taking a bathroom component as an example, it has multiple connecting holes around its sides, each with internal threads; and four mounting holes on its front, also with internal threads. Current machining equipment has only one machining unit, requiring at least two clamping operations to process this component. Taking the machining of the side connecting holes as an example, the first clamping aligns the desired machining position on the side with the tool holder, switches to the appropriate drill bit to machine the four connecting holes sequentially, and then switches to the appropriate tap to tap the four connecting holes sequentially. The second clamping aligns the desired machining position on the front with the tool holder, switches to the appropriate drill bit to machine the four mounting holes sequentially, and then switches to the appropriate tap to tap the four mounting holes sequentially.

[0004] When machining this part, the machining equipment requires multiple clamping operations, and a machining center needs to process the holes and threads one by one in sequence. This is not only inefficient and unable to meet the requirements of large-scale production capacity, but also results in high machining costs. Utility Model Content

The machining equipment also includes a first machining unit and a second machining unit symmetrically arranged around the worktable, and a third machining unit positioned above the worktable. The worktable drives the part to rotate, allowing the first and second machining units to perform symmetrical machining on the outer periphery of the annular body, and the third machining unit to perform machining on the inner ring of the annular body.

[0008] The machining process includes the first machining unit and the second machining unit simultaneously drilling holes in the outer periphery of the annular body, and then switching tools to tap the holes simultaneously; the third machining unit simultaneously drilling holes in the inner circle of the annular body, and then switching tools to tap the holes.

[0009] Furthermore, the machining unit can drive the rotating cutting tool to move along the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis respectively.

[0028] Example

[0029] Combination Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this embodiment provides a machining equipment for machining a part 2 with an annular body 7. The equipment includes a worktable 1 for fixing the part 2, and a first machining unit 5 and a second machining unit 17 symmetrically arranged around the worktable 1. A third machining unit 6 is located above the worktable 1. The worktable 1 drives the part 2 to rotate, so that the first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 perform symmetrical machining on the outer periphery of the annular body 7, and the third machining unit 6 performs machining on the inner ring of the annular body 7.

[0030] The machining process includes the first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 simultaneously drilling holes in the outer periphery of the annular body 7, and then switching tools to tap the holes simultaneously; the third machining unit 6 simultaneously drilling holes in the inner ring of the annular body 7, and then switching tools to tap the holes.

[0031] Specifically, in this embodiment, as follows Figures 1 to 3 Taking part 2 as an example, part 2 includes a ring-shaped body 7, and four connecting holes 3 are symmetrically arranged on the side of the ring-shaped body 7; four mounting ears are symmetrically arranged on the front of the ring-shaped body 7, and mounting holes 4 are provided on the mounting ears.

[0032] In the first embodiment of this utility model, as Figure 4As shown, the machining equipment includes a first machining unit 5 and a second machining unit 17, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the worktable 1; and a third machining unit 6, which is arranged above the worktable 1. Specifically, the machining units can drive rotating cutting tools to move along the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis to move closer to or away from the part 2. The machining unit uses a rotary table to switch different cutting tools, which may include a cutter head 8, multiple cutting tools rotatably arranged along the circumference of the cutter head 8, a first drive that drives the cutter head 8 to rotate, and a second drive that drives the cutting tools to rotate; the first drive drives the cutter head 8 to rotate to switch the cutting tool for machining the part 2, while the second drive drives the switched cutting tool to rotate to machine the part 2. Of course, the machining unit can also use a rotary table to switch different cutting tools, which may also have a second drive on the cutter head 8 corresponding to the number of cutting tools, each driving one corresponding cutting tool to rotate. In this embodiment, a fixture 11 is provided on the worktable 1 for clamping and fixing the part 2; the fixture 11 is rotated by a servo drive to adjust the surface of the part 2 that needs to be processed.

[0033] The specific processing steps in this embodiment are as follows: First, the part 2 is installed on the fixture 11 of the workbench 1. The part 2 is rotated to a position opposite to the first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17, with one set of symmetrical connecting holes 3. The first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 are switched to the set drill bit, and then the two opposite machining units simultaneously drill the part 2. After the workbench 1 drives the part 2 to rotate 90 degrees, the next set of two symmetrical connecting holes 3 are drilled, and so on, until all the connecting holes 3 are drilled. Finally, the cutting tool is switched to a tap, and the drilled side holes are tapped using the same steps to complete the processing of the connecting holes 3. Of course, simultaneously, when the first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 are drilling the connecting hole 3, the third machining unit 6 switches to a set drill bit and moves above the mounting hole 4 to drill the mounting hole 4 synchronously; while when the first machining unit 5 is tapping the connecting hole 3, the third machining unit 6 switches to a set tap and moves above the mounting hole 4 to tap the mounting hole 4 synchronously.

[0034] The simultaneous processing of the first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17, which are symmetrically arranged, allows the forces acting on the part to cancel each other out, effectively ensuring the stability of the part 2 on the worktable 1 and preventing displacement to ensure processing quality. The simultaneous processing of multiple machining units and the arrangement of the worktable 1 that can drive the part 2 to rotate enable the part 2 to complete all machining processes in a single clamping, reducing labor and processing costs, greatly improving processing efficiency, and meeting the needs of mass production.

[0035] It should be noted that the sides and front of the machined part 2 may also have other symmetrically arranged holes, such as process holes 15 for subsequent processing, or other mounting holes 4 for installing other components, and waist-shaped small holes 16 located at the bottom of the connecting hole 3 for mating with other components. The processing of these holes is the same as the processing steps described above. The two holes on the sides opposite each other are processed simultaneously by the two symmetrically arranged first machining units 5 and second machining units 17 switching to their corresponding cutting tools; the holes on the front are processed synchronously by the third machining unit 6.

[0036] In the second embodiment, it may also include two sets of the first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 symmetrically arranged around the periphery of the worktable 1. These units can simultaneously machine the four connecting holes 3 of the part 2 from four lateral positions, further improving processing efficiency.

[0037] Preferably, such as Figure 5 As shown. Based on the above embodiments, a first robotic arm 9 is also included for gripping the part 2. It is disposed on the side or above the worktable 1 and is used to grip the part 2 and clamp the part 2 onto the fixture 11, or to grip the part 2 off the fixture 11, thereby realizing automatic loading and unloading of the part 2; reducing manual clamping time and loading and unloading time, and improving loading and unloading efficiency.

[0038] In the third embodiment, as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, where Figure 7The first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17, located on the side, are concealed. The machining equipment also includes a transmission mechanism 10, which in this embodiment is a conveyor belt, but it can also be other transmission mechanisms 10 that form a continuous flow of workstations. Multiple workstations are spaced apart along the transmission direction; in this embodiment, four workstations are provided as an example. Multiple worktables 1 are arranged on the conveyor belt along the transmission direction, corresponding to the workstations at intervals. That is, after the conveyor belt has transmitted a set distance, the worktable 1 is placed at the position corresponding to the workstation. The third machining unit 6 is arranged above each workstation. The first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 are respectively arranged on both sides of each workstation.

[0039] The specific processing steps can be as follows: four parts 2 are clamped sequentially on the fixtures of four consecutive worktables 1. As the conveyor belt transports the parts 2, the four parts 2 are in the corresponding four workstations. At this time, the first machining unit 5, the second machining unit 17, and the third machining unit 6 on the four workstations simultaneously begin to drill and tap the connecting holes 3 and the mounting holes 4 on the parts 2. The specific processing is the same as in the first embodiment.

[0040] Of course, it can also process a part 2 sequentially at the four workstations. Specifically: the part 2 is clamped onto the fixture 11 at the first workstation. At this time, the first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 on both sides of the first workstation drill holes in a set of connecting holes 3 opposite to the side of the annular body 7. Then, the part 2 is transferred to the second workstation, where the worktable 1 rotates the part 2 90 degrees. At this time, the first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 on both sides of the workstation drill holes in another set of connecting holes 3 opposite to the side of the annular body 7. Then, the part 2 is transferred to the third workstation, where the first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 on both sides of the workstation tap the holes processed at the third workstation. Finally, the part 2 is transferred to the fourth workstation, where the worktable 1 rotates the part 2 another 90 degrees, and the first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 on both sides of the workstation tap the holes processed at the first workstation.

[0041] Synchronously, the third machining unit 6 performs synchronous operations at each station. Specifically, when the part 2 is placed on the first station, the third machining unit 6 at the first station drills two mounting holes 4 on the inner ring of the annular body 7; then, when the part 2 is transferred to the second station, the third machining unit 6 at the second station drills two other opposite mounting holes 4 on the inner ring of the annular body 7; when the part 2 is transferred to the third station again, the third machining unit 6 at the third station taps the holes machined at the third station; finally, the part 2 is transferred to the fourth station, where the worktable 1 rotates the part 2 by 90 degrees, and the third machining unit 6 at this station taps the holes machined at the first station.

[0042] It should be noted that when the first part 2 is transferred to the second station for processing, the fixture 11 transferred from the previous station on the first station can continue to clamp another part 2 and perform machining on the first station, and so on to realize the sequential processing of multiple parts 2.

[0043] Preferably, a robot arm 14 is also provided upstream of the first station and downstream of the last station, including a second robot arm 12 located upstream of the first station and a third robot arm 13 located downstream of the last station, which are used for automatic loading and unloading of the parts 2, respectively, to further improve production efficiency.

[0044] This utility model provides a machining equipment for machining parts with annular body 7. It comprises a first machining unit 5 and a second machining unit 17 symmetrically arranged around a worktable 1. A third machining unit 6 is located above the worktable 1. The first machining unit 5 and the second machining unit 17 simultaneously drill and tap the outer circumference of the annular body 7, causing the forces acting on the part 2 to cancel each other out, thus better ensuring the stability of the part 2 clamped on the worktable 1 and preventing displacement, thereby better ensuring machining quality. The third machining unit 6 simultaneously drills and taps the inner circle of the annular body 7. This greatly improves machining efficiency and can meet the needs of mass production. Furthermore, this equipment can complete all machining processes after a part is clamped once, reducing labor and machining costs.
