[0020] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the radiator manufacturing and processing equipment of this utility model includes a frame 10, a workpiece moving mechanism 20, a processing mechanism 30, and a tool changing platform 40. The workpiece moving mechanism 20 is used to move the workpiece to the processing area. The processing mechanism 30 performs various processes on the workpiece, such as drilling and milling, according to product requirements. The tool changing platform 40 is used to store multiple workpieces 44 for tool changing by the processing mechanism 30.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The workpiece moving mechanism 20 includes a Y-axis drive module 21 mounted on the frame 10 and a movable plate 22 drivenly connected to the Y-axis drive module 21; the Y-axis drive module 21 is used to drive the movable plate 22 to move along the Y direction, thereby realizing the precise feeding and positioning of the workpiece.

[0022] Specifically, the Y-axis drive module 21 includes a Y-axis slide rail 211, a Y-axis drive motor 212, and a Y-axis transmission screw 213. The movable plate 22 is slidably connected to the Y-axis slide rail 211, and the output end of the Y-axis drive motor 212 is driven by the Y-axis transmission screw 213. A first transmission nut (not shown in the figure) is fixedly provided at the bottom of the movable plate 22 and screwed onto the Y-axis transmission screw 213. The Y-axis drive motor 212 drives the Y-axis transmission screw 213 to rotate, causing the movable plate 22 to slide along the Y-axis slide rail 211, thus achieving one-dimensional precise transport of the workpiece along the Y-axis in the horizontal direction.

[0023] Specifically, the movable plate 22 is provided with multiple connection holes 221, which are used to install fixtures adapted to workpieces of different specifications. By changing different fixtures, it can quickly adapt to the clamping requirements of various radiator workpieces, thereby improving the overall flexibility of the equipment.

[0024] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The processing mechanism 30 includes a gantry 31 fixed on the frame 10, an X-axis drive module 32 mounted on the gantry 31, a Z-axis drive module 33 driven and connected to the X-axis drive module 32, and a processing execution module 34 driven and connected to the Z-axis drive module 33.

[0025] Specifically, the X-axis drive module 32 includes an X-axis slide rail 321, an X-axis drive motor 322, an X-axis transmission screw 323, and an assembly plate 325. The assembly plate 325 is slidably connected to the X-axis slide rail 321, and the output end of the X-axis drive motor 322 is drivenly connected to the X-axis transmission screw 323. An X-axis transmission nut 324, which is screwed to the X-axis transmission screw 323, is fixedly provided on the assembly plate 325. The Z-axis drive module 33 is mounted on the assembly plate 325. The X-axis drive motor 322 drives the X-axis transmission screw 323 to rotate, thereby causing the assembly plate 325 and the Z-axis drive module 33 to slide synchronously along the X-axis slide rail 321, achieving precise positioning of the machining mechanism 30 in the X direction.

[0026] Specifically, the Z-axis drive module 33 includes a Z-axis slide rail 331, a Z-axis drive motor 332, a Z-axis transmission screw (not shown in the figure), and a lifting plate 333. The lifting plate 333 is slidably connected to the Z-axis slide rail 331, the output end of the Z-axis drive motor 332 is drivenly connected to the Z-axis transmission screw, and a Z-axis transmission nut (not shown in the figure) that is screwed to the Z-axis transmission screw is fixedly provided on the lifting plate 333. The machining execution module 34 is mounted on the lifting plate 333. The Z-axis drive motor 332 drives the Z-axis transmission screw to rotate, thereby moving the lifting plate 333 and the machining execution module 34 along the Z-axis slide rail 331 to realize the vertical feed motion of the machining mechanism 30.

[0027] Specifically, the machining execution module 34 includes a spindle 341 and a tool holder 342 connected by a drive. The spindle 341 drives the tool holder 342 to rotate to perform machining, realizing multi-process machining of the workpiece. The spindle 341 in the machining execution module 34 adopts an electric spindle structure, and its output end is connected to the tool holder 342 through a coupling. The tool holder 342 is equipped with a flexible collet (not shown in the figure), which achieves automatic centering and locking with the workpiece 44 through a tapered surface engagement. When the spindle 341 is working, it drives the tool holder 342 and the workpiece 44 to rotate at high speed, providing the cutting power required for machining.

[0028] Specifically, the machining execution module 34 also includes a protective shell 343 covering the outside of the spindle 341. An air nozzle 344 is fixedly provided on the side of the protective shell 343. The air outlet of the air nozzle 344 is set towards the machining area of ​​the workpiece 44 to blow away the waste chips and coolant generated during the machining process and keep the machining area clean.

[0029] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 7 The tool changing platform 40 is fixed on the gantry 31. At one end of the tool changing platform 40 facing the machining execution module 34, there are multiple tool holders 41 arranged in parallel along the X-axis direction. The tool holders 41 hold the workpiece 44.

[0030] The machining part 44 can be configured into various types according to different machining requirements, including drill bits, milling cutters, chamfering cutters, etc. The top of the machining part 44 is equipped with an extension post 441, and the top of the extension post 441 is equipped with a clamping connector 442. The clamping connector 442 adopts a conical structure design, which can form a tight fit with the elastic collet inside the tool holder 342. The cooperation between the elastic collet and the clamping connector 442 realizes the detachable connection between the tool holder 342 and the machining part 44, meeting the needs of tool changing. Each type of machining part 44 uses the same connection interface to ensure universality and interchangeability with the tool holder 342. In addition, the side wall of the machining part 44 is equipped with an annular clamping groove 443, which is used to cooperate with external structures to achieve positioning and limiting functions.

[0031] The tool holder 41 includes a connecting plate 42, an elastic element (not shown in the figure), and two opposing elastic clamping arms 43. One end of each elastic clamping arm 43 is hinged to the connecting plate 42, and both ends of the elastic element are connected to the elastic clamping arms 43. The free ends of the elastic clamping arms 43 are provided with clamping rollers 431. In this embodiment, the elastic element is a spring, which drives the free ends of the two elastic clamping arms 43 to move towards each other, causing the two clamping rollers 431 to engage in the clamping grooves 443 of the workpiece 44, thus clamping the workpiece 44. When the workpiece 44 is inserted into the tool holder 41, the sidewall of the workpiece 44 first contacts the clamping rollers 431. As the workpiece 44 continues to penetrate deeper, the radial force exerted by the sidewall of the workpiece 44 on the clamping rollers 431 gradually increases, forcing the two elastic clamping arms 43 to overcome the tension of the elastic element and open outwards, thus widening the entrance of the tool holder 41 and facilitating the smooth entry of the workpiece 44. When the workpiece 44 continues to move to the designated position, the annular clamping groove 443 on the side wall of the workpiece 44 aligns with the clamping roller 431. At this time, the elastic element quickly resets, driving the two elastic clamping arms 43 to move towards each other, causing the clamping roller 431 to engage in the clamping groove 443 of the workpiece 44, thereby achieving automatic locking and accurate positioning of the workpiece 44. Furthermore, the connecting plate 42 has an arc-shaped abutment surface 421 on the side facing the workpiece 44, and a protruding ring 422 is provided at the center of the abutment surface 421. When the workpiece 44 is fully clamped, the protruding ring 422 is precisely engaged in the clamping groove 443 of the workpiece 44, forming radial positioning, preventing the workpiece 44 from rotating or shifting during processing, and ensuring the machining accuracy after tool change.

[0032] Furthermore, the tool changing platform 40 is equipped with a guide rail 45, on which a movable component 46 is slidably connected. The tool changing platform 40 also has a telescopic cylinder 47 driven by the movable component 46. One end of the movable component 46 is fitted with a protective cover 48 hinged thereto. Both sides of the protective cover 48 are equipped with connecting rods 49, one end of which is hinged to the protective cover 48, and the other end is hinged to the side wall of the tool changing platform 40. The telescopic cylinder 47 drives the movable component 46 to slide along the guide rail 45, thereby causing the protective cover 48 to rotate, thus opening or closing the tool changing platform 40. This structure effectively ensures the safety and dustproof performance of the tool changing platform 40.

[0033] Compared to existing technologies, the radiator manufacturing and processing equipment involved in this utility model achieves a high degree of automation and multi-functionality in radiator processing through an integrated workpiece moving mechanism 20, processing mechanism 30, and tool changing platform 40. The tool holder 342 of the processing mechanism 30 can automatically select and connect with different workpieces 44 on the tool changing platform 40, thereby enabling rapid switching between multiple processes such as drilling and milling. It can flexibly configure various special-purpose tools, greatly facilitating the assembly and integration of multi-process production lines, truly achieving multi-purpose functionality, and significantly reducing equipment investment. The cost and floor space are reduced; at the same time, the use of XYZ three-axis precision drive module with screw transmission mechanism ensures the motion accuracy of workpiece positioning and tool movement, and guarantees machining accuracy; the clamping design of workpiece 44 and tool holder 41, through the synergistic action of elastic clamping arm 43 and roller, combined with the convex ring 422 and abutment surface 421 structure on connecting plate 42, realizes the rapid, stable locking and precise positioning of workpiece 44, ensuring the reliability and repeatability of tool changing process; the automatically opening and closing protective cover 48 effectively improves the safety and dust protection of tool changing process.

[0034] The above description merely illustrates the preferred technical solution of this utility model, and while the description is relatively specific and detailed, it should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
