Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of milling and boring technology, specifically a tool length measuring device for milling and boring machining centers. Background Technology

[0002] Milling and boring are important machining methods in mechanical manufacturing. Milling uses a rotating multi-flute end mill to cut the workpiece, removing material through the relative motion between the tool and the workpiece. It can machine various shapes such as planes and grooves, offering a wide range of capabilities, high efficiency, and relatively low cost. Boring, on the other hand, uses a single-flute boring bar to enlarge the inner diameter of holes or circular contours. The rotating tool, combined with the feed motion, ensures high precision and good surface quality of the holes and can correct deviations, but its efficiency is slightly lower. Both are commonly used in mold making, aerospace, automotive manufacturing, mechanical equipment, energy equipment, and shipbuilding. Cylindrical boring bars are also widely used in milling and boring processes. To measure the length of cylindrical boring bars, a tool length testing device for milling and boring machining centers is required.

[0003] An investigation revealed that a Chinese utility model patent (CN113263198B) discloses a high-efficiency clamping type horizontal moving column boring and milling machining center. The center comprises: a base with a first slot and a fixing plate mounted on the base, with a horizontal plate fixed to the fixing plate; a receiving assembly slidably mounted on the first slot; a milling machine mechanism adapted to the receiving assembly and mounted on the base in the direction facing the horizontal plate; a drive mechanism connected to the milling machine mechanism and mounted on the horizontal plate; a boring machine mechanism mounted on the base in the direction facing the horizontal plate and adapted to the receiving assembly; and a power assembly connected to the boring machine mechanism and mounted on the fixing plate, used to drive the boring machine mechanism to reciprocate horizontally while rotating, to process the object on the receiving assembly.

[0004] The aforementioned patent is not very convenient for users to use. It cannot automatically and quickly measure the length of the cutting tool used in milling and boring machining centers. It requires staff to manually compare and measure the cylindrical boring tool, which increases the complexity and workload of the staff, increases the error after measurement, and easily increases the number of defective products in subsequent production.

[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a tool length measuring device for milling and boring machining centers to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides a technical solution: a tool length measuring device for a milling and boring machining center, comprising a measuring frame 1, a top motor 2 fixedly connected to the top of the measuring frame 1, a rotating threaded column 3 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the top motor 2 via a coupling, a movable plate 4 movably connected to the outer wall of the rotating threaded column 3, and a limiting column 5 movably connected to the top of the movable plate 4.

[0019] A measuring movable plate 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate 4, and a vernier 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate 4. A limit top frame 8 is fixedly connected inside the measuring frame 1, and a measuring ruler plate 9 is fixedly connected inside the measuring frame 1. This makes the tool length measuring device for milling and boring machining centers more convenient to use. It can automatically measure the length of cylindrical tools, eliminating the need for operators to manually compare and measure cylindrical boring tools. This reduces the complexity of the work, the workload of the operators, the amount of error after measurement, and the number of defective products in the subsequent production process.

[0020] like Figure 1-5 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: the bottom of the measuring frame 1 is movably connected with two mounting bolts 10, which can lock the two connecting parts. The outer wall of the mounting bolts 10 is movably connected with a mounting plate 11, and the length of the mounting plate 11 is less than the width of the measuring frame 1, which facilitates the connection of other working parts. The bottom of the mounting plate 11 is fixedly connected with a grip post 12, and the bottom end of the grip post 12 is fixedly connected with an anti-slip base 13, which facilitates the operator to grip and move the device and prevents it from slipping off the bottom of the grip post 12. A rear threaded post 14 is movably connected to one side of the measuring frame 1, and a hanging ring 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the rear threaded post 14, which facilitates the connection of a hanging rope, so that the device can be hung up when not in use.

[0021] The top of the movable plate 4 is movably connected to the outer wall of the limiting column 5, and the length of the limiting column 5 is equal to the length of the rotating threaded column 3, which allows the movable plate 4 to move in a stable linear motion.

[0022] like Figure 1-5As shown, when a user needs to use a tool length measuring device for a milling and boring machining center, the entire device is moved to the working position by gripping the grip column 12. One end of the cylindrical boring tool to be measured is inserted into the limit top frame 8. The top motor 2 starts to work, and the output shaft of the top motor 2 rotates, causing the rotating threaded column 3 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating threaded column 3 causes the movable plate 4 to drive the measuring movable plate 6 to rotate. When the measuring movable plate 6 contacts the tool, it will be blocked and cannot move. At this time, the length information of the cylindrical boring tool can be obtained by the position of the vernier 7 on the measuring scale plate 9.
