[0003]然而现有的精铣刀大多存在着各种问题,例如在公开号CN101745677A所公开的轮槽精铣刀中,其虽然减少了刀具切削阻力、增加刀具耐磨性、排屑顺畅,有利于刀具切削时散热、振动小、不易打刀、提高了刀具的使用寿命;但是在该技术方案以及目前大多数的精铣刀中,为了保证精铣刀的稳定性,提高加工精度,因此一般采用机夹式来实现对于精铣刀的固定,但是由于刀柄(多为圆柱形)与刀体(常为异形或多刃结构)的几何形状差异,传统夹具需设计两套独立夹持机构,而现有技术中刀柄与刀体夹紧动作无机械联动关系,因此需要对两套夹持机构进行分步操作,还需要上下重复定位使刀具上下能够被完全夹紧至同一轴线上,操作既繁琐的同时还严重影响加工效率
[0014]在本实用新型中通过设置夹持机构,进而通过驱动单元中的气缸带动齿轮移动,进而驱动齿条移动,通过齿条带动联动杆联动,进而使得调节环转动,并通过拨杆带动夹持板移动,进而实现对于精铣刀杆、刀柄的夹持锁定效果,通过齿条位移补偿实现夹紧力自适应调节,避免刀体变形或夹持不足,同时通过夹持板构成自定心夹持结构,使精铣刀杆、刀柄在被锁定后能够处于同一轴线上,避免需要重复定位,大幅度的增加了工作效率。

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a precision milling cutter, specifically a quick-change tool holder clamp-on precision milling cutter, belonging to the field of precision milling cutter technology. Background Technology
[0002] Milling is a manufacturing operation used to create parts of a desired shape by cutting away excess material. Specialized milling tools are used to machine various parts, and this operation is used in every industry, from aerospace to medical and electronics. The purpose of finish milling is to provide the desired surface finish and tolerances to the product. This operation eliminates the errors caused by rough milling. It is a finishing operation in the manufacturing shop, and finish milling requires the use of finish milling cutters.
[0003] However, most existing finish milling cutters have various problems. For example, in the wheel groove finish milling cutter disclosed in publication number CN101745677A, although it reduces tool cutting resistance, increases tool wear resistance, facilitates chip removal, and is beneficial for heat dissipation, vibration reduction, and tool breakage during cutting, thus improving tool life, in this technical solution and most current finish milling cutters, in order to ensure the stability of the finish milling cutter and improve machining accuracy, a mechanical clamp is generally used to fix the finish milling cutter. However, due to the difference in geometric shape between the tool holder (mostly cylindrical) and the tool body (often irregular or multi-edged), traditional fixtures need to design two independent clamping mechanisms. In the existing technology, the clamping action of the tool holder and the tool body has no mechanical linkage, so the two clamping mechanisms need to be operated step by step, and repeated positioning is required to ensure that the tool can be completely clamped on the same axis. The operation is not only cumbersome but also seriously affects the machining efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a solution that is significantly different from existing technologies, addressing the problem that existing technologies are too simplistic. Specifically, the purpose of this utility model is to solve the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a quick-change tool holder clamped finish milling cutter.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A quick-change clampable finish milling cutter includes a support frame, a support bracket, a finish milling cutter bar, a tool holder, and a clamping mechanism. The support bracket is fixed to one side of the support frame and is assembled into an integral structure. The tool holder is located at the bottom of the finish milling cutter bar, and the finish milling cutter bar and the tool holder are locked in the clamping mechanism.
[0007] The clamping mechanism includes a clamping unit and an adaptive drive unit. At least two sets of clamping units are provided in the support frame. Each clamping unit includes a fixed ring, a sliding groove, a clamping plate, a lever, and an adjusting ring. The fixed ring is fixed in the support frame. The sliding groove is provided on the inner wall of the fixed ring. The clamping plate is slidably engaged in the sliding groove. The lever is fixed on the clamping plate. The two adjusting rings are coaxially rotatably connected to the upper and lower sides of the fixed ring. The adaptive drive unit is provided in the support frame.
[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model: a limiting groove is provided through the adjusting ring, the lever is slidably engaged in the limiting groove, and the limiting groove is obliquely arranged.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the clamping unit further includes a first connecting rod, a guide groove and a sliding plate. The first connecting rod is fixed at the edge of the adjusting ring. The guide groove is recessed in the support frame and the support frame and is interconnected. The sliding plate is slidably engaged in the guide groove.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the clamping unit further includes a second docking rod and a linkage rod. The center of the second docking rod is fixed to the sliding plate, and one end of the linkage rod is rotatably connected to the second docking rod, while the other end is rotatably connected to the first docking rod.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the drive unit includes a rack, a cylinder, a locator, and a gear. The rack is fixed on one side of the upper and lower sliding plates that are close to each other. The cylinder is fixed at the center of one side of the support frame. The locator is fixed at the telescopic end of the cylinder. The gear is rotatably connected in the locator and meshes with the upper and lower racks.
[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, the cross-sections of both the guide groove and the sliding plate are trapezoidal.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] In this invention, a clamping mechanism is set up, which in turn drives the gear to move through the cylinder in the drive unit, which in turn drives the rack to move. The rack drives the linkage rod, which in turn causes the adjusting ring to rotate. The lever then drives the clamping plate to move, thereby achieving a clamping and locking effect on the milling cutter bar and the tool holder. The clamping force is adaptively adjusted through rack displacement compensation to avoid tool deformation or insufficient clamping. At the same time, the clamping plate forms a self-centering clamping structure, which ensures that the milling cutter bar and the tool holder are on the same axis after being locked, avoiding the need for repeated positioning and greatly increasing work efficiency.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1
[0022] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a quick-change clamped finish milling cutter includes a support frame 1, a support frame 2, a finish milling cutter bar 3, a tool holder 4, and a clamping mechanism 5. The support frame 2 is fixed to one side of the support frame 1 and is assembled into an integral structure. The tool holder 4 is located at the bottom of the finish milling cutter bar 3, and the finish milling cutter bar 3 and the tool holder 4 are locked in the clamping mechanism 5.
[0023] The clamping mechanism 5 includes a clamping unit and an adaptive drive unit. At least two sets of clamping units are provided in the support frame 2. The clamping unit includes a fixed ring 51, a sliding groove 52, a clamping plate 53, a lever 54, and an adjusting ring 55. The fixed ring 51 is fixed in the support frame 2. The sliding groove 52 is provided on the inner wall of the fixed ring 51. The clamping plate 53 is slidably engaged in the sliding groove 52. The lever 54 is fixed on the clamping plate 53. The two adjusting rings 55 are coaxially rotatably connected to the upper and lower sides of the fixed ring 51. The adaptive drive unit is provided in the support frame 1.
[0024] The clamping unit also includes a first docking rod 57, a guide groove 58, and a sliding plate 59. The first docking rod 57 is fixed at the edge of the adjusting ring 55. The guide groove 58 is recessed in the support frame 1 and the support frame 2 and is connected to each other. The sliding plate 59 is slidably engaged in the guide groove 58. The clamping unit also includes a second docking rod 510 and a linkage rod 511. The center of the second docking rod 510 is fixed on the sliding plate 59. One end of the linkage rod 511 is rotatably connected to the second docking rod 510, and the other end is rotatably connected to the first docking rod 57.
[0025] The drive unit includes a rack 512, a cylinder 513, a locator 514, and a gear 515. The rack 512 is fixed on one side of the upper and lower sliding plates 59 that are close to each other. The cylinder 513 is fixed at the center of one side of the support frame 1. The locator 514 is fixed to the telescopic end of the cylinder 513. The gear 515 is rotatably connected in the locator 514 and meshes with the upper and lower racks 512.
[0026] In this invention, a clamping mechanism 5 is provided, which in turn drives the gear 515 to move via the cylinder 513 in the drive unit, thereby driving the rack 512 to move. The rack 512 then drives the linkage rod 511 to move, causing the adjusting ring 55 to rotate. The lever 54 then drives the clamping plate 53 to move, thus achieving a clamping and locking effect on the milling cutter bar 3 and the tool holder 4. The clamping force is adaptively adjusted through rack displacement compensation, avoiding tool deformation or insufficient clamping. At the same time, the clamping plate 53 forms a self-centering clamping structure, ensuring that the milling cutter bar 3 and the tool holder 4 are on the same axis after being locked, avoiding the need for repeated positioning and greatly increasing work efficiency. Example 2
[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in addition to all the technical features included in Embodiment 1, this embodiment also includes:
[0028] A limiting groove 56 is provided through the adjusting ring 55. The lever 54 is slidably engaged in the limiting groove 56, and the limiting groove 56 is set at an angle. The lever 54 is limited by the limiting groove 56, so that the lever 54 can be forced to move, thereby driving the clamping plate 53 to move synchronously.
[0029] Both the guide groove 58 and the sliding plate 59 have trapezoidal cross sections. The trapezoidal structure limits the sliding plate 59 and prevents it from slipping.
[0030] Working principle: When using this precision milling cutter, first place the integral structure consisting of the precision milling cutter shank 3 and the cutter holder 4 inside the upper and lower fixed rings. Then, the cylinder 513 drives the gear 515 to move, which in turn drives the rack 512 and the sliding plate 59 to move. The second connecting rod 510 drives the linkage rod 511 to move together. At this time, the adjusting ring 55 rotates, which in turn drives the lever 54 to move through the limit groove 56. The lever 54 then drives the clamping plate 53 to move, and the clamping plate 53 clamps and locks the precision milling cutter.
[0031] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
[0032] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
