Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining center technology, and in particular to a five-axis machining center with double swivel head and double table. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of modern manufacturing towards high precision, high efficiency, and high flexibility, five-axis CNC machining centers have become key equipment for machining complex curved surface parts in fields such as aerospace, precision molds, and automobile manufacturing. Among them, the double-swivel head five-axis machining center, because its spindle head can swing at a large angle around two rotation axes (such as A / C axes), has extremely strong spatial attitude adjustment capabilities, making it very suitable for multi-faceted and multi-angle composite machining of large and complex workpieces, while avoiding errors caused by workpiece flipping or multiple clamping.

[0003] In existing technologies, traditional dual-swivel head five-axis machining centers typically feature a single worktable. During machining, the workpiece is clamped, aligned, and cut on this table. However, this structure has a significant drawback: once a workpiece is finished, the machine tool must completely stop cutting, waiting for the operator to unload the completed part and re-clamp a new blank workpiece. This clamping auxiliary time consumes a large amount of non-productive machine tool time, leading to reduced equipment utilization and limited production efficiency. This problem is particularly prominent in scenarios involving the machining of small to medium batches of diverse parts. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a double-swivel-head, double-table, five-axis machining center to address the technical problem that the clamping mechanism of existing machining centers limits equipment utilization and production efficiency.

[0005] A dual-swivel-head, dual-table, five-axis machining center includes a machine tool body, a swivel-head module, and a material support module. The swivel-head module is movably mounted on the top of the machine tool body; the material support module is movably mounted on the bottom side of the machine tool body corresponding to the swivel-head structure.

[0006] The swaying head module is configured as a double swaying head; the material support module includes a mounting base, a first guide mechanism, a second guide mechanism, a first platform and a second platform, the first guide mechanism and the second guide mechanism are laid on the mounting base along a preset direction; the first platform is slidably connected to the first guide mechanism; the second platform is slidably connected to the second guide mechanism.

[0007] Both the first guide mechanism and the second guide mechanism extend along the length of the mounting base, and the first guide mechanism and the second guide mechanism are parallel to each other and mirror images of each other on both sides of the mounting base; the first platform and the second platform are mirror images of each other and are slidably connected to the first guide mechanism and the second guide mechanism respectively.

[0008] In one embodiment, the first platform is provided with a first driving unit and a first supporting component. The first driving unit is disposed on the bottom side surface of the first platform, and the output end of the first driving unit is connected to the first guiding mechanism. The first supporting component is disposed on the top side surface of the first platform.

[0009] In one embodiment, the first guide mechanism described above includes two parallel first guide rails, which are laid along the length of the mounting base on the side surface of the mounting base.

[0010] In one embodiment, the first platform is provided with two parallel first slide plates corresponding to the two first guide rails. The two first slide plates are disposed on the bottom side surface of the first platform, and the corresponding side of each first slide plate slides in cooperation with the two first guide rails.

[0011] In one embodiment, the first support component includes two parallel primary guide rails and two parallel trays. The two primary guide rails are disposed at both ends of the first platform along a preset direction. Each tray is slidably mounted across the two primary guide rails.

[0012] In one embodiment, the top side surface of each of the above trays is movably provided with a two-stage platform.

[0013] In one embodiment, receiving slots are also provided on both sides of the first platform.

[0014] In one embodiment, the second guide mechanism described above has the same structure as the first guide mechanism and is arranged in a mirror image on both sides of the mounting base.

[0015] In one embodiment, the second platform has the same structure as the first platform and is a mirror image of the second guide mechanism.

[0016] In one embodiment, the aforementioned double-swivel-head, double-table, five-axis machining center includes two sets of swivel-head modules and two sets of material support modules. The two swivel-head modules are movably installed on the top of the machine tool body, and the two material support modules are respectively disposed at the bottom of the machine tool body corresponding to the two swivel-head modules.

[0017] The aforementioned dual-swivel-head, dual-table, five-axis machining center combines a high-performance dual-swivel head with a dual-table system that can be controlled independently or in conjunction, thereby improving machining flexibility and production organization flexibility. Specifically, firstly, the dual-table structure enables parallel operation of workpiece processing and clamping. For example, when a workpiece on the first table is being processed using the tilting head module, the operator can disassemble and clean the workpiece and clamp and align a new workpiece on the second table. Once the workpiece on the first table is finished, the tilting head module can immediately move to the second table to begin a new round of processing, while the operator can then focus on the first table. This eliminates the time the machine waits for tooling and maximizes the actual cutting utilization rate of the machine tool. Secondly, in independent processing mode, completely different workpieces can be mounted on the first and second tables, and the CNC system can call two different processing programs to process them, allowing for the simultaneous production of two small batches of products, suitable for flexible manufacturing models with multiple varieties and small batches. In linked processing mode, the two tables can be mounted on both ends or sides of the same large workpiece. Through the synchronous movement of the dual tables, the actual processing stroke of the machine tool can be effectively extended, increasing the application range of the equipment.

However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0021] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0022] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., 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 or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

"Below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0024] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 2This utility model discloses a double-swivel-head, double-table, five-axis machining center 1. The double-swivel-head, double-table, five-axis machining center 1 includes a machine tool body 10, a swivel-head module 20, and a material support module 30. The swivel-head module 20 is movably installed on the top of the machine tool body 10; the material support module 30 is movably installed on the bottom side of the machine tool body 10 corresponding to the swivel-head structure. Thus, the workpiece to be processed is positioned and clamped by the material support module 30, and the swivel-head module 20 performs five-axis machining on the workpiece clamped in the material support module 30. Specifically, the swaying head module 20 is configured as a double swaying head; the material support module 30 includes a mounting base 31, a first guide mechanism 32, a second guide mechanism 33, a first platform 34, and a second platform 35. The first guide mechanism 32 and the second guide mechanism 33 are laid on the mounting base 31 along a preset direction; the first platform 34 is slidably connected to the first guide mechanism 32, thereby the first platform 34 can reciprocate along the first guide mechanism 32; the second platform 35 is slidably connected to the second guide mechanism 33, thereby the second platform 35 can reciprocate along the second guide mechanism 33. More specifically, the first guide mechanism 32 and the second guide mechanism 33 both extend along the length direction of the mounting base 31, and the first guide mechanism 32 and the second guide mechanism 33 are parallel to each other and mirror images of each other on both sides of the mounting base 31; based on this, the first platform 34 and the second platform 35 are mirror images of each other and are slidably connected to the first guide mechanism 32 and the second guide mechanism 33, respectively. Therefore, in practical applications, based on the same material support module 30, the first table 34 and the second table 35 are set independently, and they can perform independent material support processing or linked material support processing. Based on the above settings, the dual-swivel-head, dual-table, five-axis machining center 1 of this solution combines a high-performance dual-swivel head with a dual-table system that can be controlled independently or linked, thereby improving processing flexibility and production organization flexibility. Specifically, firstly, the dual-table structure enables parallel operation of workpiece processing and clamping. For example, when a workpiece on the first table 34 is being processed using the swivel head module 20, the operator can disassemble and clean the workpiece and clamp and align a new workpiece on the second table 35. Once the workpiece on the first table 34 is finished, the swivel head module 20 can immediately move to the second table 35 to begin a new round of processing, while the operator can then focus on the first table 34. This eliminates the time spent waiting for tooling and maximizes the actual cutting utilization rate of the machine tool. Secondly, in independent processing mode, completely different workpieces can be mounted on the first table 34 and the second table 35, and the CNC system can call two different processing programs to process them, allowing for the simultaneous production of two small batches of products, suitable for flexible manufacturing modes with multiple varieties and small batches. In linked processing mode, the two tables can be mounted on both ends or sides of the same large workpiece. Through the synchronous movement of the dual tables, the actual processing stroke of the machine tool can be effectively extended, increasing the application range of the equipment.

[0026] Furthermore, the first table 34 is provided with a first drive unit 341 and a first support component 342. The first drive unit 341 is disposed on the bottom side surface of the first table 34, and the output end of the first drive unit 341 is connected to the first guide mechanism 32. Thus, based on the cooperative work between the first drive unit 341 and the first guide mechanism 32, the first table 34 can be driven to reciprocate along the first guide mechanism 32. The first support component 342 is disposed on the top side surface of the first table 34 to support and clamp the workpiece to be processed.

[0027] Specifically, in one embodiment, the first guide mechanism 32 includes two parallel first guide rails 321, which are laid along the length of the mounting base 31 on the side surface of the mounting base 31.

[0028] Specifically, in one embodiment, the first platform 34 is provided with two parallel first slide plates 343 corresponding to the two first guide rails 321. The two first slide plates 343 are disposed on the bottom side surface of the first platform 34, and the corresponding side of each first slide plate 343 is slidably engaged with the two first guide rails 321, so that the first platform 34 can slide stably along the two first guide rails 321.

[0029] Specifically, in one embodiment, the first support component 342 includes two parallel primary guide rails 3421 and two parallel trays 3422. The two primary guide rails 3421 are arranged at both ends of the first platform 34 along a preset direction. Each tray 3422 is slidably straddled by the two primary guide rails 3421, so that the two trays 3422 can reciprocate along the primary guide rails 3421 respectively.

[0030] Specifically, in one embodiment, the top side surface of each pallet 3422 is movably provided with a secondary platform 3423, thereby further enhancing the support flexibility of the first support assembly 342 for the workpiece.

[0031] Specifically, in one embodiment, the first table 34 is provided with receiving grooves 343 on both sides. The receiving grooves 343 can be used to collect waste debris generated during the workpiece processing to ensure the cleanliness of the processing site.

[0032] Furthermore, the second guide mechanism 33 has the same structure as the first guide mechanism 32 and is mirror-image disposed on both sides of the mounting base 31; correspondingly, the second platform 35 has the same structure as the first platform 34 and is mirror-image disposed on both sides of the second guide mechanism 33.

[0033] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the double-swivel-head, double-table, five-axis machining center 1 includes two sets of swivel-head modules 20 and two sets of material-supporting modules 30. The two swivel-head modules 20 are movably installed on the top of the machine tool body 10, and the two material-supporting modules 30 are respectively disposed at the bottom of the machine tool body 10 corresponding to the two swivel-head modules 20, thereby further expanding the application range of the double-swivel-head, double-table, five-axis machining center 1.

[0034] In summary, the dual-swivel-head, dual-table, five-axis machining center disclosed in this utility model combines a high-performance dual-swivel head with a dual-table system that can be controlled independently or in conjunction, thereby improving machining flexibility and production organization flexibility. Specifically, firstly, the dual-table structure enables parallel operation of workpiece processing and clamping. For example, when a workpiece on the first table is being processed using the tilting head module, the operator can disassemble and clean the workpiece and clamp and align a new workpiece on the second table. Once the workpiece on the first table is finished, the tilting head module can immediately move to the second table to begin a new round of processing, while the operator can then focus on the first table. This eliminates the time the machine waits for tooling and maximizes the actual cutting utilization rate of the machine tool. Secondly, in independent processing mode, completely different workpieces can be mounted on the first and second tables, and the CNC system can call two different processing programs to process them, allowing for the simultaneous production of two small batches of products, suitable for flexible manufacturing models with multiple varieties and small batches. In linked processing mode, the two tables can be mounted on both ends or sides of the same large workpiece. Through the synchronous movement of the dual tables, the actual processing stroke of the machine tool can be effectively extended, increasing the application range of the equipment.

[0035] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0036] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they 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 these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
