Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of positioning in five-axis machining centers, specifically a spindle head rotation positioning device for a five-axis machining center. Background Technology
[0002] Five-axis CNC machine tools have a significant impact on a country's aerospace, military, and precision instrument industries. Internationally, five-axis CNC technology is considered a marker of a country's industrialization level. In the woodworking machinery industry, the level of five-axis CNC woodworking machine tools represents the manufacturing level of CNC machine tools for woodworking machinery enterprises. The spindle head of a five-axis machining center is a core component of a high-end woodworking CNC five-axis machining center. The "rotational positioning device for the spindle head of a woodworking five-axis machining center" disclosed in application number "201821223376" is also an increasingly mature technology. Its positioning in the C-axis direction is determined by using an origin sensing block and a limit sensing block in conjunction with a sensor to determine the origin position and positive and negative rotation limits. The initial position is determined by adjusting the relative position of the small synchronous pulley and the guide tube. The positioning in the B-axis direction is determined by a sensor and a sensing block. The device establishes the B-axis zero position, enabling the spindle head to rotate continuously 360° along the B-axis direction. This results in accurate positioning, a longer spindle head lifespan, and higher machining precision. However, this rotary positioning device has the following drawbacks: While it does achieve a positioning effect through the use of a timing pulley and timing belt, the effect is not significant enough. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a rotary positioning device that can significantly improve the positioning effect and enhance practicality. Furthermore, the protective effect of this rotary positioning device is insufficient, affecting its lifespan. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a rotary positioning device that improves protection and extends its lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0023] Example 1
[0024] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a five-axis machining center spindle head rotation positioning device, including a protective component 100 and a positioning component 200;

During use, the rubber buffer column 106 can initially improve the protection effect of the support arm 201. In conjunction with the damper 103 and the buffer spring 104, the shock absorption effect of the rotational positioning device can be further enhanced, thereby improving the stability of use. Finally, the micro motor 210 at the end of the support arm 201 drives the cooling fan 220 to rotate, which can achieve the heat dissipation effect, thereby extending the service life of the rotational positioning device.

[0038] Please see Figures 3-5 The buffer column 106 is made of rubber.
[0039] In one specific embodiment, the rubber-made buffer post 106 can further improve the buffering effect and enhance the protection of the support arm 201.
[0040] Working Principle: During use, the DC motor 202, acting as the power output mechanism, improves the rotational accuracy of the spindle head body 209. The connecting belt 204 then rotates, causing the first synchronous pulley 206 to rotate. The presence of the positioning bearing 205 further enhances the rotational positioning strength. The first synchronous pulley 206, in conjunction with the synchronous belt 208, rotates the second synchronous pulley 207, further strengthening the rotational positioning of the spindle head body 209 and enhancing the practicality of the rotational positioning device. During use, the rubber buffer column 106 initially improves the protection of the support arm 201. Combined with the damper 103 and buffer spring 104, this further enhances the shock absorption effect of the rotational positioning device, thereby improving operational stability.
