Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to milling and turning spindle technology, specifically a bearing unloading and protection structure for a milling and turning composite spindle. Background Technology
[0002] A machine spindle is the shaft on a machine tool that drives the workpiece or cutting tool to rotate. It typically consists of a spindle, bearings, and transmission components (gears or pulleys). The motion accuracy and structural rigidity of the spindle assembly are crucial factors determining machining quality and cutting efficiency.
[0003] Existing milling and turning spindles generate a cutting force during tool changes, which acts directly on the bearings. Prolonged stress on the bearings leads to rapid wear and reduces their lifespan. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a bearing unloading and protection structure for a milling and turning composite spindle. Before tool changing, the gear plate is engaged, and then the automatic tool changing action is performed. This unloads the cutting force onto the moving and stationary gear plates, ensuring that the bearing is not subjected to force, thereby protecting the bearing and extending its service life.
[0005] To achieve the above technical objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a bearing unloading protection structure for a milling and turning composite spindle, disposed between a housing and a shaft body. The shaft body is fitted with several angular contact ball bearings, the outer walls of which are fixed to the housing. Each bearing includes a stationary gear plate and a movable gear plate. The stationary gear plate is fixed to the housing, and the movable gear plate is fitted onto the spindle. The movable gear plate is rotatably connected within the stationary gear plate. The movable gear plate and the stationary gear plate are coaxially arranged. Oil chambers are provided on both sides of the stationary gear plate, located within the housing. A piston and a common gear plate are slidably fitted within each of the two oil chambers. The piston and the common gear plate clamp the stationary gear plate and the movable gear plate. The common gear plate meshes with both the stationary and movable gear plates. The stationary gear plate is equipped with a reset unit for resetting the piston and the common gear plate.
[0006] Preferably, the reset unit includes a reset spring, which passes through a through hole in the stationary gear disk. The through hole is located in the stationary gear disk, and both ends of the reset spring are respectively located in spring mounting slots. The two spring mounting slots are respectively located in the piston and the common gear disk.
[0007] Preferably, the housing is provided with an oil passage that connects the two oil chambers to the hydraulic device.
[0008] In summary, this utility model achieves the following technical effects:
[0009] The milling and turning composite spindle bearing unloading protection structure of this utility model adopts a separate stationary gear plate and a moving gear plate. Before tool changing, the stationary gear plate and the moving gear plate are clamped by a common gear plate and a piston. The stationary gear plate and the moving gear plate are engaged by the common gear plate before the automatic tool changing action is performed. The tool changing force can be unloaded on the moving gear plate and the stationary gear plate, so that the angular contact ball bearing is not stressed, protecting the bearing and extending the service life of the bearing.

[0019] Example 1:
[0020] like Figure 1 As shown in Figure 2, a bearing unloading protection structure for a milling and turning composite spindle is disposed between a housing 1 and a spindle body 2. The spindle body 2 is fitted with several angular contact ball bearings 3, the outer walls of which are fixed to the housing 1. The structure includes a stationary gear plate 6 and a movable gear plate 7. The stationary gear plate 6 is fixed to the housing 1, and the movable gear plate 7 is fitted onto the spindle. The movable gear plate 7 is rotatably connected to the stationary gear plate 6 and is coaxially arranged with the stationary gear plate 6. Oil chambers 5 are provided on both sides of the stationary gear plate 6 and are located inside the housing 1. A piston 9 and a common gear plate 8 are slidably fitted in the two oil chambers 5, respectively. The piston 9 and the common gear plate 8 cooperate to clamp the stationary gear plate 6 and the movable gear plate 7. The common gear plate 8 meshes with the stationary gear plate 6 and the movable gear plate 7. The stationary gear plate 6 is provided with a reset unit for resetting the piston 9 and the common gear plate 8.
[0021] The milling and turning composite spindle bearing unloading protection structure of this embodiment adopts a separate stationary gear plate 6 and a moving gear plate 7. Before tool change, the hydraulic device pressurizes, so that the common gear plate 8 and the piston 9 clamp the stationary gear plate 6 and the moving gear plate 7. The common gear plate 8 meshes with the stationary gear plate 6 and the moving gear plate 7, and then the automatic tool change action is performed. The cutting force can be unloaded on the moving gear plate 7 and the stationary gear plate 6, so that the angular contact ball bearing 3 is not stressed, protecting the bearing and extending the service life of the bearing.
[0022] After the tool change operation is completed, the hydraulic device is depressurized, and the reset unit opens the common gear plate 8 and the piston 9, so that the stationary gear plate 6 and the moving gear plate 7 are separated, and the shaft 2 can rotate freely.
[0023] The reset unit includes a reset spring 10, which passes through a through hole in the stationary gear disk 6. The through hole is located in the stationary gear disk 6. Both ends of the reset spring 10 are respectively located in spring mounting slots, and the two spring mounting slots are respectively located in the piston 9 and the common gear disk.
[0024] The outer casing 1 is provided with an oil passage 4, which connects two oil chambers 5 to a hydraulic device. The hydraulic device is located in the machining center and is used to control the liquid pressure in the oil chambers 5 to realize the movement of the piston 9 and the common gear plate 8.
[0025] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
