Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of internal milling machine tools, and in particular to an internal milling cutter device and machine tool with a manual tilt angle adjustment structure. Background Technology

[0002] Internal rotary milling is a type of cyclone milling, generally used for machining workpiece threads. It uses a motor to drive the cutter head to rotate, the workpiece is placed in the machining hole of the cutter head, and the cutting tool is installed on the inner wall of the cutter head. During the rotation of the cutter head, the cutting tool drives the workpiece to perform milling.

[0003] Since different workpieces require different thread helix angles, internal rotary milling cutter devices are generally equipped with a swing angle adjustment structure. For example, the invention patent with publication number CN110039132A discloses "a rotary milling processing device", which includes a support base and an internal rotary milling head. Rotary shafts are provided on both sides of the internal rotary milling head, and the rotating shafts are rotatably connected to the support base. One of the rotating shafts is connected to a swing angle motor. The swing angle motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, thereby causing the entire internal rotary milling head to swing relative to the support base, thus achieving adjustment.

[0004] The advantage of electric angle adjustment is its ease of operation, but at the same time, it also increases the manufacturing cost. In addition to the requirements for the rotational accuracy of the motor, the accuracy of the control algorithm is also required to be high. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to reduce manufacturing costs, the purpose of this application is to provide an internal rotary milling cutter device with a manual tilt angle adjustment structure.

[0006] The internal milling cutter device with manual tilt angle adjustment structure provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An internal milling cutter device with a manual tilt angle adjustment structure includes:

[0008] The support base has a first mounting hole;

[0009] An internal rotary milling head, the internal rotary milling head having a first outwardly extending rotating shaft, the first rotating shaft being rotatably connected within a first mounting hole; and

[0010] An adjustment assembly is used to drive a first rotating shaft to rotate within a first mounting hole. The adjustment assembly includes a worm gear rotatably connected to a support base and a worm wheel meshing with the worm gear, the worm wheel being connected to the first rotating shaft.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating worm gear drives the meshing worm wheel to rotate. The rotation of the worm wheel is synchronized with the rotation of the first rotating shaft, and the rotation of the first rotating shaft drives the entire internal milling head to rotate relative to the support seat, thereby realizing manual adjustment of the swing angle. The structure is simple and the manufacturing cost is relatively low. At the same time, due to the characteristics of threaded transmission, good transmission accuracy can be achieved.

[0012] Preferably, the worm gear includes:

[0013] The threaded section meshes with the worm gear; and

[0014] At least one optical axis segment is connected to the threaded segment.

[0015] The support base has an adjustment groove and a mounting groove that connects to the adjustment groove. A bearing is installed in the mounting groove and is mounted on the optical axis section. The threaded section is received in the adjustment groove.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the connection between the bearing and the optical shaft section, the guiding performance of the entire worm gear is improved, especially in terms of axial movement, which can be limited, and the stability is also better when manually rotating.

[0017] Preferably, it further includes a shaft stop assembly, the shaft stop assembly comprising:

[0018] An outer ring retaining ring is mounted on a support base and has an inner hole.

[0019] The inner ring retaining ring is installed on the optical axis section and is partially placed in the inner hole;

[0020] Oil seal, installed between the outer and inner retaining rings; and

[0021] Locking nut, threaded connection to worm gear;

[0022] The outer ring retaining ring abuts against the outer ring end face of the bearing, the inner ring retaining ring abuts against the inner ring end face of the bearing, and the locking nut abuts against the inner ring retaining ring.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer and inner ring retainers limit the axial movement of the bearing within the mounting groove, thus better ensuring the stability of the worm gear during rotation. Secondly, the oil seal reduces lubricant leakage from the bearing to the outside and also increases the reliability of the outer and inner ring retainers during installation.

[0024] Preferably, the worm gear further includes a lever at its end.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the wrench can be conveniently connected to manual or power tools.

[0026] Preferably, the first rotating shaft includes a rotating section and a connecting section arranged in a stepped manner. The rotating section is connected to a first mounting hole, and the worm gear is disposed on the connecting section. The worm gear and the rotating section are connected by a plurality of first fasteners.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating section rotates relative to the first mounting hole, and the connecting section facilitates the connection of the worm gear.

[0028] Preferably, the support base also has a rear outlet hole that connects to the first mounting hole, an end cap is provided in the rear outlet hole, and the end of the connecting section extends out from the rear outlet hole and is connected to a dust cover.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, the rear outlet hole allows the end of the first rotating shaft to extend out and be installed and positioned by the end cover. The dust cover can reduce dust from entering the first mounting hole from the rear outlet hole, thereby improving service life.

[0030] Preferably, the support base includes a first base body and a second base body distributed on both sides of the internal rotary milling head, and the adjustment component is installed on the first base body; the internal rotary milling head also includes a second rotating shaft coaxially arranged with the first rotating shaft, the second base body has a second mounting hole, and the second rotating shaft is rotatably connected in the second mounting hole.

[0031] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection between the second rotating shaft and the second mounting hole can further improve the stability during rotation.

[0032] Preferably, it further includes an angle detection component, the angle detection component comprising:

[0033] A drive shaft, which is connected to one end of a second rotating shaft;

[0034] Angle sensor; and

[0035] A coupling that connects the drive shaft to the angle sensor.

[0036] By adopting the above technical solution, during the manual adjustment of the swing angle of the internal milling head, the second rotating shaft rotates relative to the second mounting hole. When the second rotating shaft rotates, it synchronously drives the transmission shaft to rotate. The rotation of the transmission shaft is transmitted to the angle sensor through the coupling, thereby realizing the visualization of the rotation angle during manual adjustment and improving the controllability of the adjustment.

[0037] Preferably, it also includes a dustproof cylinder, which is connected to the second base body, and the angle sensor is installed at one end of the dustproof cylinder; wherein, the drive shaft and the coupling are housed inside the dustproof cylinder.

[0038] By adopting the above technical solution, the dustproof cylinder can reduce the interference of external dust entering the dustproof cylinder on the drive shaft and the angle sensor shaft, thereby improving the accuracy of angle detection.

[0039] In order to reduce manufacturing costs, a second objective of this application is to provide a machine tool.

[0040] The machine tool provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0041] A machine tool includes the aforementioned internal milling cutter device with a manual tilt angle adjustment structure.

[0042] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotation of the worm gear driven by the manual drive is used to drive the rotation of the worm wheel, which in turn drives the rotation of the internal milling head. This replaces the existing electric method driven by the motor, improving the controllability of the swing angle adjustment. At the same time, the manual adjustment structure is simple and the manufacturing cost is relatively low.

[0043] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0044] 1. The tilt angle of the internal milling head is adjusted by manually rotating the worm gear to drive the worm wheel. The transmission structure is simple and the manufacturing cost is low.

[0045] 2. By setting a second rotating shaft to connect the first rotating shaft and the support base, the stability of the internal milling head during rotation is improved. At the same time, the second rotating shaft transmits the rotation angle to the angle sensor through the transmission shaft, so that when the swing angle is manually adjusted, the angle adjustment can be visualized, improving the controllability of the angle adjustment.
