Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tool holders, specifically relating to a tool holder for CNC grinding machines. Background Technology

[0002] In modern manufacturing, CNC grinding machines, as crucial high-precision machining equipment, are widely used in aerospace, automotive manufacturing, and precision machinery industries. However, the tool holder of traditional CNC grinding machines sometimes suffers from inaccurate tool positioning during machining due to the unstable movement of the tool holder itself, affecting machining accuracy and surface finish. This is especially critical in high-speed, high-precision grinding operations, where the positioning accuracy and motion stability of the tool holder are paramount. Therefore, a tool holder for CNC grinding machines needs to be designed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a tool holder for CNC grinding machines, thereby resolving the issue raised in the background section that the movement of existing tool holders on the market is not stable enough, thus affecting the machining accuracy of workpieces.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A tool holder for a CNC grinding machine includes: a base, on which a telescopic cylinder is fixed, and a tool holder assembly is fixed to the output end of the telescopic cylinder via a connecting plate. A lifting assembly that helps the connecting plate move smoothly is provided on the other side of the connecting plate.

[0006] As a further improvement to this utility model, the lifting assembly includes a guide rod fixedly connected to the connecting plate and a sleeve fixedly connected to the base, wherein the guide rod and the sleeve are vertically slidably connected by a linear bearing.

[0007] As a further improvement to this utility model, the connecting plate is in the shape of a Z, and the height of the connecting plate on the side of the telescopic cylinder is lower than the height of the connecting plate on the side of the lifting assembly.

[0008] As a further improvement to this utility model, the dragging tool assembly includes a boss provided on the connecting plate, and two sets of limiting blocks are provided on the boss. An installation groove is formed between the limiting blocks to facilitate the installation of the support blocks. Most of the support blocks have a placement groove at their top for easy placement of workpieces.

[0009] As a further improvement to this utility model, the base is also provided with a limiting post, which is located below the connecting plate and is higher than the telescopic cylinder.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] This invention uses a telescopic cylinder to lift and lower the tool-dragging assembly, while simultaneously using a linear bearing with low friction and high precision to guide it. This ensures that the tool-dragging frame maintains high precision and stability as it moves along a predetermined path, reducing positional deviations caused by mechanical wear and ensuring the quality and precision of the grinding process.
