Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of turrets, and in particular to a universal testing platform for multiple turret models. Background Technology

[0002] A tool turret is a tool clamping and switching device on CNC lathes, turning centers, and other equipment. It has multiple tool mounting positions to accommodate different types and sizes of cutting tools. Through servo or hydraulic drive, it achieves rapid and precise tool switching, enabling various machining operations such as grooving, drilling, reaming, boring, and finishing. The precision and stability of the tool turret directly determine the machining quality and operational reliability of the machine tool. Therefore, after the tool turret is manufactured or during long-term use and maintenance, its key performance indicators must be tested and verified using testing equipment to ensure that it meets design standards and usage requirements.

[0003] Existing testing equipment typically consists of a testing platform, a drive system, a testing system, and a control system, with the testing platform providing the mounting and support foundation. Due to significant differences in base dimensions, mounting hole distribution, and overall shape among different models and specifications of turrets, the turret mounting structure of existing testing platforms is mostly a fixed design. This prevents flexible adjustments based on the mounting hole positions and testing point requirements of different turrets, thus limiting the testing range. Utility Model Content

The X-axis positioning assembly includes two X-axis guide rails symmetrically arranged in the first mounting cavity, a transmission mechanism slidably connected to the X-axis guide rails, and two first brackets driven by the transmission mechanism to move synchronously towards or away from each other; the first brackets extend upward through the base and the mounting platform, and are connected to the top of the X-axis positioning plate; The Y-axis positioning assembly includes a reference block disposed at the edge of the mounting platform, a drive mechanism disposed in the second mounting cavity and extending along the Y direction, and a second bracket driven by the drive mechanism to move along the Y direction; the second bracket extends upward through the base and the mounting platform, and is connected to the top of the Y-axis positioning plate. The clamping assembly includes an adjusting plate movably mounted on an X-axis positioning plate, a clamping crossbeam movably connected below the adjusting plate, and a third drive component mounted on the adjusting plate and capable of driving the clamping crossbeam to rise and fall.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the transmission mechanism includes two toothed plates arranged parallel to the X-axis guide rail, a gear meshing with the two toothed plates simultaneously, and a first driving member for driving the gear to rotate; one end of each toothed plate is fixedly connected to a slider that slides along the corresponding X-axis guide rail, and the other end is fixedly connected to the corresponding first bracket.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the driving mechanism includes a Y-axis screw and a Y-axis guide rail arranged in parallel. The second bracket and the Y-axis screw form a threaded transmission pair and are slidably connected to the Y-axis guide rail. The Y-axis screw is driven to rotate by the second driving member.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the base and the mounting platform are provided with an X-direction guide groove corresponding to the movement path of the first support, and a Y-direction guide groove corresponding to the movement path of the second support.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the two X-axis positioning plates are symmetrically distributed about the moving path of the second bracket.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the first mounting cavity is located below the second mounting cavity.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the positioning sides of the X-direction positioning plate and the Y-direction positioning plate, as well as the pressing surface of the pressing beam, are all provided with an elastic buffer layer.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the surface of the elastic buffer layer is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By using two first supports that can move synchronously along the X-axis and their top X-axis positioning plates, along with a second support that can move independently along the Y-axis and its top Y-axis positioning plate, an adjustable two-dimensional positioning reference is formed. This allows for adaptation to various mounting hole distributions and external dimensions of different turret models on the mounting platform, enabling rapid and accurate positioning and alignment of the turret. The movable adjustment plate on the X-axis positioning plate and the liftable clamping beam form a multi-point, adjustable clamping structure, which can be flexibly adjusted and securely clamped according to the detection points and clamping requirements of different turrets.

[0015] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0016] 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. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0017] Reference Figures 1-5This embodiment provides a universal testing platform for multiple turret models, including a base 1, a mounting platform 2, an X-axis positioning component 3, a Y-axis positioning component 4, and a clamping component 5. These components work together to achieve precise positioning and stable support for different turret models. The base 1 serves as the foundation for the entire testing platform, and its interior has a first mounting cavity 11 and a second mounting cavity 12 spaced vertically apart, providing independent space for the motion mechanisms and transmission components of the positioning components in different directions. The mounting platform 2 is fixed to the top of the base 1, and its top is a flat bearing surface directly used to support and bear the turret to be tested. The X-axis positioning component 3 includes two X-axis guide rails 31 symmetrically arranged within the first mounting cavity, and a clamping component 5. The system includes a sliding transmission mechanism 32 and two first supports 33 driven by the transmission mechanism 32 to move synchronously in opposite directions or in opposite directions. The X-axis guide rail 31 can be a linear guide rail, dovetail guide rail, or similar structure. The symmetrical arrangement of the two X-axis guide rails 31 ensures the stability of the first supports 33 when the transmission mechanism 32 moves, preventing deviation. The first supports 33 extend upwards through the base 1 and mounting platform 2, with an X-axis positioning plate 34 connected to their top. The X-axis positioning plate 34 directly contacts the X-axis side of the turret under test, achieving X-axis positioning of the turret. The transmission mechanism 32 provides power for the movement of the first supports 33, enabling the two first supports 33 to move synchronously in opposite directions or in opposite directions, thereby driving the X-axis positioning plate. The spacing of 34 is adjusted to accommodate turrets of different widths; the Y-axis positioning assembly 4 includes a reference block 41 disposed on the edge of the mounting platform 2, a drive mechanism 42 disposed in the second mounting cavity and extending along the Y direction, and a second bracket 43 driven by the drive mechanism 42 to move along the Y direction; the reference block 41 is the reference surface for the Y-axis positioning of the turret, providing a reference for the Y-axis positioning of the turret; the second bracket 43 extends upward through the base 1 and the mounting platform 2, and its top is connected to a Y-axis positioning plate 44. When the drive mechanism 42 drives the second bracket 43 to move along the Y direction, the Y-axis positioning plate 44 moves accordingly. Through the cooperation of the reference block 41 and the movable Y-axis positioning plate 44, the Y-axis positioning of turrets of different lengths can be achieved; the clamping assembly 5 is used for... After the turret is positioned in the X and Y directions, a clamping force is applied from above to prevent it from shifting or vibrating during the testing process. This includes an adjusting plate 51 movably mounted on the X-direction positioning plate 34, a clamping beam 52 movably connected below the adjusting plate 51, and a third driving component 53 mounted on the adjusting plate and capable of driving the clamping beam 52 to rise and fall. The movable connection between the adjusting plate 51 and the X-direction positioning plate 34 can be achieved by means of sliding rail and slider cooperation, sliding groove and bolt connection, etc. The movement direction is along the X direction to adapt to the clamping point position of different turrets and ensure that the clamping force can be applied evenly to the turret. The third driving component 53 can be a hydraulic cylinder, pneumatic cylinder, electric push rod, or other driving components to drive the clamping beam 52 to rise and fall, thereby achieving the clamping and loosening of the turret.

[0018] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism 32 can adopt a gear and toothed plate transmission structure, including two toothed plates 321 arranged parallel to the X-guide rail 31, a gear 322 that meshes with the two toothed plates 321 simultaneously, and a first driving member 323 that drives the gear 322 to rotate; one end of each toothed plate 321 is fixedly connected to a slider 324 that slides along the corresponding X-guide rail 31, and the other end is fixedly connected to the corresponding first bracket 33; the first driving member 323 can be a servo motor, stepper motor, or other structure. When the first driving member 323 drives the gear 322 to rotate, since the gear 322 meshes with the two toothed plates 321 simultaneously, the rotation of the gear 322 will drive the two toothed plates 321 to move in opposite directions, thereby driving the slider 324 connected to the toothed plate 321 and the first bracket 33 to slide along the X-guide rail 31, ultimately realizing the synchronous movement of the two first brackets 33 towards or away from each other, and realizing the symmetrical and precise centering and positioning of the turret in the X direction.

[0019] The drive mechanism 42 can adopt a screw and guide rail transmission structure, including a Y-axis screw 421 and a Y-axis guide rail 422 arranged in parallel. The second bracket 43 and the Y-axis screw 421 form a threaded transmission pair and are slidably connected to the Y-axis guide rail 422. The Y-axis screw 421 is driven to rotate by the second drive member 423. The second drive member 423 can be a servo motor, stepper motor or other structure. When the second drive member 423 drives the Y-axis screw 421 to rotate, since the second bracket 43 and the Y-axis screw 421 form a threaded transmission pair and are guided and limited by the Y-axis guide rail 422, the rotation of the Y-axis screw 421 will be converted into the linear movement of the second bracket 43 along the Y direction, thereby driving the Y-axis positioning plate 44 to move to realize the Y-axis positioning of the turret.

[0020] An X-direction guide groove 13 is provided on the base 1 and the mounting platform 2 corresponding to the moving path of the first support 33, and a Y-direction guide groove 14 is provided corresponding to the moving path of the second support 43. The X-direction guide groove 13 and the Y-direction guide groove 14 can provide guidance for the movement of the first support 33 and the second support 43, further improving the stability and accuracy of the support movement. At the same time, it can avoid frictional interference between the support and the base 1 and the mounting platform 2 during the movement, reduce component wear, and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0021] To ensure the balance and stability of the turret positioning, the two X-axis positioning plates 34 are symmetrically distributed about the movement path of the second bracket 43. This ensures that the X-axis forces exerted by the two X-axis positioning plates 34 on the turret are uniform and symmetrical, preventing the turret from tilting or becoming inaccurate due to force deviation, and ensuring that the turret is in a stable positioning state in the X-axis.

[0022] The first mounting cavity 11 is located below the second mounting cavity 12, which can make reasonable use of the vertical space of the base 1 and make the installation layout of the X-axis positioning component 3 and the Y-axis positioning component 4 more compact. At the same time, since the first bracket 33 driven by the X-axis positioning component 3 needs to drive the X-axis positioning plate 34 to achieve a wide range of movement, by installing it in the lower first mounting cavity 11, it can avoid interference with the movement trajectory of the upper Y-axis positioning component 4, and ensure the independent and smooth operation of the two components.

[0023] To prevent rigid collisions between the X-axis positioning plate 34, Y-axis positioning plate 44, and the turret during positioning, which could damage the turret surface, and to prevent the clamping beam 52 from indenting the top of the turret during clamping, elastic buffer layers 6 are provided on the positioning sides of the X-axis positioning plate 34 and Y-axis positioning plate 44, as well as on the clamping surface of the clamping beam 52. The elastic buffer layer 6 can be made of elastic materials such as rubber, silicone, or polyurethane, and has good elastic deformation capability. It can play a buffering role during positioning and clamping, absorbing the impact force of collisions and effectively protecting the machining accuracy and integrity of the turret surface. At the same time, the elastic deformation of the elastic buffer layer 6 can also adapt to the slight unevenness of the turret surface, making the positioning plate fit more tightly with the turret surface and improving positioning accuracy.

[0024] The surface of the elastic buffer layer 6 is provided with anti-slip texture 61. The anti-slip texture 61 can adopt various shapes such as stripes, grids, and serrations, which can increase the friction between the elastic buffer layer 6 and the turret surface, prevent the turret from sliding relative to each other during positioning and detection, and ensure the stability of positioning and the safety of detection.

[0025] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
