AI Technical Summary
[0003]上述润滑方式虽然在一定程度上满足了润滑需求,但在实际应用中,尤其是对加工精度要求较高的情况下则上述润滑方式难以满足要求,其主要原因在于上述润滑方式属于开放式润滑,不仅无法有效防尘,且难以在螺母与螺杆传动间隙处形成持续稳定润滑油膜,导致润滑效果有限、螺杆与螺母的配合精度不高,最终影响传动精度
[0013]通过在螺母上下两端分别设计润滑腔室A和润滑腔室B,实现对螺杆与螺母之间的间隙进行封闭式的油浴润滑,即通过螺杆螺母相对运动将润滑腔室A内的润滑油均匀的包裹在螺杆、螺母的表面形成润滑油膜,相比开式润滑具备更好的防尘和润滑效果,可以有效的降低螺杆与螺母的传动间隙,提高配合精度,从而提高传动精度。

Abstract
Description
Technical fields:
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of screw press technology, specifically to an oil bath lubrication system for screw and nut transmission. Background technology:
[0002] The screw press is driven by a screw and nut (e.g.) Figure 3 As shown, the screw and nut drive directly affects the slider's running accuracy and efficiency, thus the screw and nut transmission directly impacts the slider's running accuracy and efficiency. Currently, forced lubrication is mainly used for screw and nut transmissions. To achieve forced lubrication, oil passages and oil outlets (such as...) need to be machined on the nut. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, oil is supplied and lubricated through the oil pump supply circuit.
[0003] While the aforementioned lubrication methods meet lubrication requirements to some extent, they fall short in practical applications, especially when high machining precision is required. This is primarily because these methods are open-type lubrication systems, which not only fail to effectively prevent dust but also struggle to form a continuous and stable lubricating oil film at the clearance between the nut and screw. This results in limited lubrication effectiveness, low precision in the screw-nut fit, and ultimately, compromised transmission accuracy. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize and improve existing screw-nut transmission lubrication methods to enhance lubrication efficiency and transmission accuracy.
[0004] It should be noted that the above content falls within the inventor's technical knowledge and does not necessarily constitute prior art. Utility Model Content:
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problems existing in the prior art and provide an oil bath lubrication system for screw and nut transmission. It adopts a relatively closed oil bath lubrication method and has the advantages of reasonable structural design, good dust prevention effect and good lubrication effect.
[0006] This utility model achieves the above objectives by adopting the following technical solutions:
[0007] A screw-nut drive oil bath lubrication system includes a screw rotatably mounted on a mounting base, a nut mounted on the screw, a cavity A at the upper end of the nut, a felt plate at the upper end of cavity A, the nut, cavity A, felt plate, and screw together to form a lubrication chamber A, a cavity B at the lower end of the nut, a telescopic sleeve on the base plate of the mounting base, the upper end of the telescopic sleeve being connected to cavity B, the nut, cavity B, telescopic sleeve, base plate, and screw together to form lubrication chamber B, lubrication chamber B being connected to a circulating oil pump via oil passage B, and the circulating oil pump being connected to lubrication chamber A via oil passage A, the circulating oil pump delivering lubricating oil from lubrication chamber B into lubrication chamber A.
[0008] Cavity shell A and cavity shell B are respectively installed on nuts via threaded connection A.
[0009] The felt plate is designed in a circular shape, and the inner side of the felt plate is tightly attached to the screw. The felt plate is installed on the upper end of the cavity shell A through a threaded connection B.
[0010] A liquid level sensor is provided on the cavity shell A. The liquid level sensor is connected to the controller, and the controller is connected to the circulating oil pump.
[0011] The lower end of the screw is rotatably mounted on the support sleeve via a bearing. The support sleeve is mounted on the base plate. The upper end of the support sleeve is provided with an upper end cover, and the lower end is provided with a lower end cover. The upper end cover is provided with an oil inlet channel for lubricating oil to pass through, and the lower end cover is provided with an oil outlet in the center. The oil outlet is connected to oil circuit B.
[0012] The present invention, by adopting the above-described structure, can bring the following beneficial effects:
[0013] By designing lubrication chambers A and B at the upper and lower ends of the nut respectively, a closed-loop oil bath lubrication is achieved for the gap between the screw and the nut. That is, the relative movement of the screw and nut causes the lubricating oil in lubrication chamber A to evenly coat the surfaces of the screw and nut, forming a lubricating oil film. Compared with open lubrication, it has better dust prevention and lubrication effects, can effectively reduce the transmission gap between the screw and the nut, improve the fitting accuracy, and thus improve the transmission accuracy.

Detailed implementation method:
[0019] To more clearly illustrate the overall concept of this utility model, a detailed description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0021] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other. Each embodiment focuses on describing the differences from other embodiments.
[0022] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "equipped with," "connected," and "set up" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a communication connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal connection of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0023] like Figure 1-2As shown, an oil bath lubrication system for screw and nut transmission includes a screw 1, which is rotatably mounted on a mounting base 2. The screw 1 is typically vertically rotatable. A nut 3 is mounted on the screw 1, and the nut 3 is connected to a slider via a slide block or other transmission mechanism. The screw 1 drives the nut 3 to rise and fall. A cavity A4 is located at the upper end of the nut 3, and a felt plate 5 is located at the upper end of the cavity A4. The nut 3, cavity A4, felt plate 5, and screw 1 cooperate to form a lubrication chamber A6. A cavity B7 is located at the lower end of the nut 3. The mounting base 2 has a telescopic sleeve 9 on its base plate 8. The upper end of the telescopic sleeve 9 is connected to the cavity shell B7. The telescopic sleeve 9 can move up and down with the nut (i.e., it is achieved through telescopic movement). The nut 3, cavity shell B7, telescopic sleeve 9, base plate 8, and screw 1 cooperate to form a lubrication chamber B10. The lubrication chamber B10 is connected to a circulating oil pump 12 through an oil passage B11. The circulating oil pump 12 is connected to a lubrication chamber A6 through an oil passage A13. The circulating oil pump 12 delivers the lubricating oil in the lubrication chamber B10 into the lubrication chamber A6. By designing lubrication chambers A6 and B10 at the upper and lower ends of the nut 3 respectively, a closed-loop oil bath lubrication is achieved for the gap between the screw 1 and the nut 3. That is, the relative movement of the screw and nut evenly coats the surface of the screw 1 and the nut 3 with the lubricating oil in the lubrication chamber A6 to form a lubricating oil film. Compared with open lubrication, this has better dust prevention and lubrication effects, effectively reduces the transmission gap between the screw 1 and the nut 3, improves the fitting accuracy, and thus improves the transmission accuracy.
[0024] Cavity housings A6 and B10 are respectively mounted on nut 3 via threaded connection A20. Threaded connection has the advantages of reliable and secure installation, and facilitates later maintenance.
[0025] The felt plate 5 is designed in a circular shape, and its inner side is tightly attached to the screw 1. The felt plate 5 is installed on the upper end of the cavity shell A4 via a threaded connection B21. The felt plate has excellent dust absorption, filtration, and air permeability, and can meet dust prevention requirements.
[0026] A liquid level sensor 14 is installed on the housing A4. The liquid level sensor 14 is connected to the controller 15, and the controller 15 is connected to the circulating oil pump 12. The controller 15 here can be the one that comes with the screw press. The liquid level sensor 14 mainly detects the remaining amount of lubricating oil in the lubrication chamber A6. When the lubricating oil level is lower than the set level, the circulating oil pump 12 promptly delivers the lubricating oil in the lubrication chamber B10 to the lubrication chamber A6. This not only achieves circulating lubrication, but also ensures that the screw 1 and nut 2 are always lubricated by an oil bath.
[0027] The lower end of the screw 1 is rotatably mounted on a support sleeve 17 via a bearing 16. The support sleeve 17 is mounted on a base plate 8. The upper end of the support sleeve 17 is provided with an upper end cover 18, and the lower end is provided with a lower end cover 19. The upper end cover 18 has an oil inlet channel 20 for lubricating oil to pass through, and the lower end cover 19 has an oil outlet 21 at its center, which is connected to the oil passage B11. This design allows the lubricating oil in the lubrication chamber B10 to also provide closed oil bath lubrication for the bearing 16, which helps to improve the rotational accuracy of the screw 1.
[0028] The above-described specific embodiments should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any alternative improvements or modifications made to the embodiments of this utility model by those skilled in the art shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0029] Any aspects of this utility model not described in detail are common knowledge to those skilled in the art.
