Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CNC machine tool technology, specifically a rapid feed mechanism for CNC machine tools. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of medical device manufacturing, the high precision, high cleanliness, and complex structures of products place stringent demands on the machining efficiency and feed accuracy of CNC machine tools. For precision components such as orthopedic implants and medical catheter connectors, the performance of the feed mechanism of CNC machine tools has become a key factor restricting the industry's development due to the stringent requirements for machining accuracy, surface quality, and production efficiency. Traditional CNC machine tools mostly use a feed structure combining ordinary lead screws and guideways, which has low transmission efficiency and makes it difficult to achieve high-speed feed. This results in long processing cycles for single products, failing to meet the ever-increasing demand for mass production of medical devices. Furthermore, ordinary lead screws are prone to vibration and axial movement at high speeds, making it difficult to achieve the micron-level standards required for medical devices, leading to dimensional deviations and unstable product quality. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a rapid feed mechanism for a CNC machine tool, including a machine body 1. A bed connecting base 11 is provided on the top of the machine body 1. A Z-axis linear guide 2 and a Z-axis ball screw 14 are arranged parallel along the length direction on the bed connecting base 11. The Z-axis linear guide 2 is slidably connected to a tool post 19, and the tool post 19 and the Z-axis ball screw 14 are adapted for transmission. One end of the Z-axis ball screw 14 is connected to a Z-axis servo driver 12. An X-axis linear guide 4 and an X-axis ball screw 8 are provided on the upper surface of the tool post 19. The X-axis linear guide 4 is slidably connected to an adapter 7, and the adapter 7 and the X-axis ball screw 8 are adapted for transmission. One end of the X-axis ball screw 8 is connected to an X-axis servo driver 12. The machine body 1 is surrounded by a machine tool outer cover 17, and the inner side of the outer cover 17 encloses the inner protective cover 3 corresponding to the machining area. A spindle servo motor 13 is mounted on one side of the machine body 1. The lead screw end bearing 5 on the machine body 1 is installed at the end of the Z-axis ball screw 14 and the X-axis ball screw 8, respectively. Fixed clamps 10, 15, and 16 are distributed on the machine body 1. A tool turret servo motor 9 and an end face tool holder mounting position 18 are installed on the tool turret 19. The machine body 1 is the basic support, and the top bed connecting base 11 carries the Z-axis linear guide 2 and the Z-axis ball screw 14, which are arranged in parallel. The Z-axis servo driver 12 drives the Z-axis ball screw 14 to rotate. Because the tool turret 19 is adapted to the Z-axis ball screw 14 for transmission and is slidably connected to the Z-axis linear guide 2, the rotation is converted into linear motion of the tool turret 19 along the Z-direction. Similarly, the X-axis linear guide 4 on the tool post 19 and the X-axis ball screw 8 are driven by the X-axis servo driver 6 to rotate the X-axis ball screw 8, causing the adapter 7 to move linearly along the X direction. The outer machine tool cover 17 and the inner machine tool protective cover 3 of the machine body 1 enclose the machining area. The spindle servo motor 13 provides machining power. The ball screw end bearing 5 supports the Z and X axis ball screw ends to ensure transmission stability. The fixed clamps 10, 15, and 16 respectively fix auxiliary components. The tool turret servo motor 9 on the tool post 19 and the end face tool holder mounting position 18 are adapted to the tool assembly to work together to achieve rapid feed machining.
[0021] The Z-axis linear guide 2 and the Z-axis ball screw 14 are arranged parallel to each other along the length of the bed connecting base 11. The Z-axis linear guide 2 and the Z-axis ball screw 14 provide guidance and drive for the Z-axis movement of the tool post 19. When the Z-axis ball screw 14 rotates, the tool post 19 is guided and constrained by the Z-axis linear guide 2 and moves linearly along the Z-axis. The two work together to provide guidance and drive for the Z-axis movement of the tool post 19, ensuring accurate movement direction and stable transmission, which is different from the limitations of a single transmission method.
[0022] The X-axis linear guide 4 and the X-axis ball screw 8 are arranged parallel to each other on the surface of the tool holder 19. The X-axis linear guide 4 and the X-axis ball screw 8 together provide guidance and drive for the X-axis movement of the adapter 7. When the X-axis ball screw 8 rotates, the adapter 7 is guided by the X-axis linear guide 4 and moves linearly in the X-axis direction. The two work together to provide guidance and drive for the X-axis movement of the adapter 7, realizing precise X-axis feed.
[0023] The lead screw end bearing 5 is sleeved on the non-driving ends of the Z-axis ball screw 14 and the X-axis ball screw 8. When the ball screw rotates, the lead screw end bearing 5 bears the radial load and axial movement, maintains the coaxiality and straightness of the lead screw, and ensures stable transmission without wobble.
[0024] The outer cover 17 of the machine tool covers the machine body 1 and the upper components, and the inner protective cover 3 of the machine tool is nested inside the outer cover 17. The outer cover 17 covers the machine body 1 and the upper components, forming an outer barrier to block chips, coolant splashes and noise diffusion. The inner protective cover 3 is nested inside the outer cover, further enclosing the core processing area. The double isolation ensures the distinction between the processing environment and the external space, while also allowing for a window to observe the hidden processing functions.
[0025] Fixed clamp 10, fixed clamp 2 15, and fixed clamp 3 16 are respectively assembled at the front, middle, and rear ends of the machine body 1 and are adapted to fix different functional components. Fixed clamp 10, 2 15, and 3 16 are installed at the front, middle, and rear ends of the machine body 1 according to functional requirements, and are implicitly connected by bolts, slots, etc. They are adapted to fix different auxiliary components such as material bins, detection sensors, and chip removal components, and provide installation interfaces for peripheral equipment of the rapid feeding system.
[0026] The turret servo motor 9 is vertically mounted on one side of the tool holder 19, and the end face tool holder mounting position 18 is opened on the front end face of the tool holder 19 and adapted to the tool assembly mounting; the turret servo motor 9 is vertically mounted on one side of the tool holder 19 and drives the related movements of the tool assembly; the end face tool holder mounting position 18 is opened on the front end face of the tool holder 19 and is used to mount the tool assembly. The two work together to achieve rapid tool switching and precise positioning, adapting to the tool requirements of rapid feed machining.
[0027] In this invention, the Z-axis linear guide 2 and Z-axis ball screw 14 are supported by the bed connecting base 11. The Z-axis servo driver 12 drives the screw to rotate, and combined with the guidance of the linear guide, the Z-axis rapid feed of the tool post 19 is realized. The X-axis linear guide 4 and X-axis ball screw 8 on the tool post 19, driven by the X-axis servo driver 6, drive the adapter 7 to complete the X-axis rapid movement. The screw end bearing 5 is installed at the end of the ball screw, supporting rotation and ensuring transmission stability. The outer cover 17 and the inner protective cover 3 of the machine tool form a double layer of protection, isolating the machining area. The spindle servo motor 13 provides power for machining. The fixed clamps 10, 15, and 16 distributed on the machine body 1 are adapted to fix auxiliary components. The turret servo motor 9 on the tool post 19 and the end face tool holder mounting position 18 realize tool switching and installation. The coordinated operation of all components enables high-precision and rapid feed motion on the X and Z axes, providing a stable and reliable transmission foundation for efficient CNC machine tool processing, while ensuring the safety of the processing environment and the overall operational stability of the equipment.
