[0019] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-2 This application will be described in further detail.
[0020] This application discloses a tubular bridge boring machine.
[0021] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The tubular bridge boring bar includes a tool holder 1 connected to the spindle of the machining equipment. The tool holder 1 is connected to a bridge tube 2 via a connecting unit. The bridge tube 2 is made of aluminum, which has a relatively low density, only about 1 / 3 that of steel. This allows the aluminum bridge tube 2 to maintain sufficient load-bearing capacity while significantly reducing its weight. Tool holders 3 are installed at both ends of the bridge tube 2, and each tool holder 3 is equipped with a cutting tool 4. In this embodiment, the tool holders 3 can be boring tool holders from related technologies.
[0022] Therefore, starting the machining equipment drives the tool holder 1 to rotate, and the tool holder 1 drives the bridge tube 2 to move synchronously. During the movement of the bridge tube 2, the cutting blades 4 on the tool holders 3 at both ends of the bridge tube 2 cut the machining surface of the workpiece. Since the bridge tube 2 is a tubular hollow structure, the overall weight of the structure can be reduced when the spindle of the machining equipment has limited weight. This reduces the impact of the weight of the tubular bridge boring machine on the spindle drive capability of the machining equipment, thereby improving machining efficiency and machining quality.
[0023] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connecting unit includes a connecting seat 5 disposed on the tool holder 1, and a bridge tube 2 disposed at the end of the connecting seat 5 away from the tool holder 1. The connecting seat 5 enhances the connection rigidity between the tool holder 1 and the bridge tube 2. In this embodiment, the outer edge of the connecting seat 5 can be provided with a relief groove, and the groove wall of the relief groove is provided with a rounded chamfer. The rounded chamfer can reduce stress concentration, thereby improving the structural rigidity of the connecting seat 5.
[0024] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connecting seat 5 has a limiting groove 6 on the surface facing the bridge tube 2, which matches the size of the bridge tube 2. In this embodiment, the limiting groove 6 is an arc-shaped groove. The bridge tube 2 is located in the limiting groove 6 and contacts the groove wall of the limiting groove 6. The limiting groove 6 plays a limiting role in the position of the bridge tube 2, reducing the possibility of the bridge tube 2's position shifting, and further improving the stability of the connection between the connecting seat 5 and the bridge tube 2.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connecting seat 5 is provided with a fixing component for fixing the bridge tube 2. The fixing component includes several connecting bolts 7 that pass through the connecting seat 5 and the bridge tube 2. The several connecting bolts 7 are arranged in an array on the connecting seat 5. The outer edges of the several connecting bolts 7 are threaded with connecting nuts 8. The connecting seat 5 is pressed between the several connecting nuts 8 and the several connecting bolts 7.
[0026] Therefore, the operator can remove the connecting seat 5 from the bridge tube 2 by unscrewing the bolts, achieving a detachable connection between the connecting seat 5 and the bridge tube 2, which provides greater flexibility. In this embodiment, several connecting bolts 7 are respectively fitted with annular washers on their outer edges. These annular washers are respectively pressed between the connecting seat 5 and the connecting nut 8. The annular washers can distribute the pressure applied by the connecting nut 8, reducing the possibility of excessive pressure concentrating in a local area of the connecting seat 5, and at the same time reducing direct wear between the connecting nut 8 and the connecting seat 5.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The tool holder 1 is provided with several mounting bolts 9, and the connecting seat 5 is provided with several mounting grooves that match the size of the mounting bolts 9. The ends of the mounting bolts 9 facing the connecting seat 5 are respectively threaded into the mounting grooves. In this embodiment, the mounting bolts 9 are arranged in a circumferential array along the tool holder 1. The circumferential array arrangement of the mounting bolts 9 can ensure that the tool holder 1 is evenly stressed on the connecting seat 5, which helps to optimize the stress distribution. This distribution method reduces local deformation or damage caused by excessive stress at a single point, improves the stability and reliability of the connection between the tool holder 1 and the connecting seat 5, and thus improves the strength and durability of the connection.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A positioning block 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the tool holder 1 facing the connecting seat 5. The surface of the connecting seat 5 facing the tool holder 1 has a positioning groove that matches the size of the positioning block 10. The positioning block 10 is inserted into the positioning groove, and the positioning groove limits the position of the positioning block 10, so that the relative position between the tool holder 1 and the connecting seat 5 can be quickly determined. When the positioning block 10 is inserted into the positioning groove, several mounting bolts 9 are aligned with several mounting grooves, so that the operator can connect the tool holder 1 and the connecting seat 5 by bolt connection.
[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bridge tube 2 has transition plates 11 installed at both ends, and two tool holders 3 are respectively mounted on the two transition plates 11. In this embodiment, the transition plates 11 are made of steel. Due to its high strength and rigidity, steel can withstand large loads and stresses, which improves the stability of the tool holders 3 mounted on the transition plates 11. Adding transition plates 11 to the bridge tube 2 and then installing tool holders 3 further improves the structural rigidity of the bridge tube 2, thereby improving the stability during workpiece processing.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2Two placement slots matching the size of the transition plate 11 are provided on the outer edge of the bridge tube 2. The two transition plates 11 are respectively placed in the placement slots, which limit the position of the transition plates 11 and improve the stability of the placement position of the transition plates 11. Several fixing bolts 12 are passed through the transition plates 11, and several fixing slots matching the size of the fixing bolts 12 are provided on the bottom of the placement slots. The ends of the fixing bolts 12 facing the fixing slots are threaded into the fixing slots. Therefore, the operator can remove the transition plates 11 from the bridge tube 2 by removing the bolts, so that the transition plates 11 and the tool holder 3 on the transition plates 11 can be removed, which is more flexible and facilitates the replacement of the blades 4 after they wear out.
[0031] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows: starting the machining equipment drives the tool holder 1 to rotate, and the tool holder 1 drives the bridge tube 2 to move synchronously. During the movement of the bridge tube 2, the cutting blades 4 on the tool holders 3 at both ends of the bridge tube 2 cut the machining surface of the workpiece. Since the bridge tube 2 is a tubular hollow structure and is made of aluminum, the overall weight of the structure can be reduced when the spindle of the machining equipment has limited weight. This reduces the impact of the self-weight of the tubular bridge boring machine on the spindle driving capability of the machining equipment, thereby improving machining efficiency and machining quality.

After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
