[0002] A five-axis swivel head is a key functional component in CNC machine tools. It allows the tool or workpiece to be positioned and machined along five axes, typically including three linear axes for translation and two rotary axes for adjusting the angle of the tool or workpiece. This swivel head design enables machine tools to perform complex machining tasks, such as machining parts with complex curved surfaces and angles. By changing the spatial position of the tool or workpiece during machining, it achieves high-precision and high-efficiency three-dimensional machining, and is widely used in aerospace, mold manufacturing, and precision engineering fields.

[0003] In current traditional five-axis CNC machine tool applications, to ensure that the performance and accuracy of the swivel head meet the design requirements, it is usually necessary to assemble it on a fully functional test machine tool for rigorous performance testing before installing it on the actual machining tool. This process involves the disassembly and reinstallation of the swivel head, which is not only cumbersome but also requires a lot of manpower and time. At the same time, the special machine tool used for swivel head testing often has a large footprint, which not only leads to high equipment costs but also increases the space pressure and operating costs of the factory, thus limiting production efficiency and flexibility to some extent.

The positioning plate 308 is threadedly connected to the upper part of the surface of the mounting screw 306. The oscillating head structure 4 includes a T-block 401 and an oscillating head seat 403. The T-block 401 is movably connected inside the T-slot 304, and the oscillating head seat 403 rotates... The five-axis oscillating head is dynamically connected to one side surface of the T-block 401. When testing the five-axis oscillating head, it is installed on the testing device through the mounting structure 3. During installation, the T-block 401 is inserted from the top of the T-slot 304 to the bottom. Then, the positioning plate 308 is inserted downward from the top of the mounting slot 305. The mounting knob 307 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting screw 306 by threads. The mounting knob 307 is manually rotated, and the positioning plate 308 slides downward through the mounting screw 306. The positioning plate 308 presses and fixes the T-block 401, realizing the positioning and installation of the five-axis oscillating head. Then, the five-axis oscillating head can be tested through the testing structure 2. This simplifies the installation process of the five-axis oscillating head, improves testing efficiency and accuracy, and reduces the footprint and cost of the testing equipment.

[0018] Example 1: A swing head motor 402 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the T-block 401, a central shaft 404 is provided on one side surface of the swing head seat 403, and an installation knob 307 is threadedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting screw 306 to facilitate manual rotation of the mounting screw 306.

[0019] Example 2: Test structure 2 includes a movable frame 203, a movable seat 207, and a workpiece seat 212. The workpiece seat 212 is movably connected to the surface of the test platform 1. A serrated groove 213 is formed on the surface of the workpiece seat 212, and a flexible workpiece 214, made of wax material, is engaged inside the serrated groove 213. A first drive motor 201 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the test platform 1, and a first screw 202 is driven to the output end of the first drive motor 201. The movable frame 203 is slidably connected to the upper surface of the test platform 1 via the first screw 202. A second drive motor 204 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the movable frame 203, and a second screw 205 is driven to the output end of the second drive motor 204.

The interior of the movable seat 207 is provided with a lifting groove 210. The upper surface of the movable seat 207 is fixedly connected to the third drive motor 208. The output end of the third drive motor 208 is driven by the third screw 209. The surface of the third screw 209 is threadedly connected to the lifting block 211. The mounting plate 301 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the lifting block 211. In use, the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis of the swing head structure 4 are controlled by the first drive motor 201, the second drive motor 204 and the third drive motor 208 respectively. During testing, the flexible workpiece 214 is stuck inside the workpiece seat 212 through the serrated groove 213. The flexible workpiece 214 of wax material is used to test the tool of the five-axis swing head without damaging the tool. This achieves efficient and non-destructive testing of the five-axis swing head and improves the safety of the test and the reliability of the swing head.

[0020] In use, firstly, insert the T-block 401 from the top of the T-slot 304 to its lowest point, ensuring that the swing head seat 403 of the swing head structure 4 can be rotatably connected to one side surface of the T-block 401. Next, insert the positioning plate 308 downward from the top of the mounting slot 305, and fix the mounting knob 307 to the upper end of the mounting screw 306 by threads. Manually rotate the mounting knob 307 to make the mounting screw 306 drive the positioning plate 308 to slide downward, thereby pressing and fixing the T-block 401, thus achieving precise positioning and installation of the five-axis swing head. On one side of the test platform 1, the first drive motor 201 is driven by the first screw 202 connected to the output end, allowing the moving frame 203 to slide on the upper surface of the test platform 1. The second drive motor 204 on the moving frame 203 is threadedly connected to the moving seat 207 by the second screw 205, enabling the moving seat 207 to slide on the surface of the limit rod 206. The movable seat 207 has a lifting groove 210 inside. The third drive motor 208 drives the lifting block 211 to move up and down in the lifting groove 210 through the third screw 209. As a result, the mounting plate 301 fixedly connected to one side surface of the lifting block 211 also moves, realizing precise control of the X, Y and Z axes of the swing head structure 4. During the test, the flexible workpiece 214 of wax material is engaged inside the workpiece seat 212 through the serrated groove 213. The tool of the swing head structure 4 comes into contact with the flexible workpiece 214 during the test. Due to the softness of the wax material, it can simulate the actual cutting conditions and ensure that the tool is not damaged during the test, thereby achieving efficient and non-destructive testing results, greatly improving the safety of the test and the reliability of the swing head. The design and use process of the entire testing device not only considers the convenience of operation, but also takes into account the accuracy and cost-effectiveness of the test, providing an effective solution for the performance verification of the five-axis swing head.
