Composite processing machine

Abstract

A composite processing machine with an automatic swiveling composite turret device. Transmitting and releasing of rotational force to a rotating tool is automatically switched between indexing and locked securing. Included is a clutch-action-coupled rotational force transmission / release switching mechanism (10). A common motor (9) is the drive source for a rotation drive mechanism (7) for transmitting rotational force to a rotating tool (5) and a swivel drive mechanism (8) for swiveling a turret (3). Transmission of rotational force of common motor (9) to rotation drive mechanism (7) is released when turret (3) is slid along swivel shaft part (2) to unlock clutch device (4) and enable turret (3) to swivel, and rotational force of common motor (9) is transmitted to rotating tool (5) when turret (3) is slid back to lock and secure clutch device (4) in an indexed position of turret (3).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a compound processing machine which is a machine tool equipped with an automatic rotary turret, such as a large vertical lathe, and which also has compound functions such as drilling. Background technique [0002] The automatic rotating turret device is equipped with multiple tools (tool holders) that can be switched and used by rotating the turret. When the tool is switched or the angle of the tool is changed, the turret is automatically rotated relative to the turret base. The transformation turret device generally has the following structure (refer to the drawings of the present embodiment, and the same reference numerals will be attached to the same parts as the present embodiment for description). [0003] The automatic rotary turret device is configured such that a turret 3 provided with a plurality of tools (a plurality of cutters 26 respectively interchangeably installed in a plurality of holders 25 ) is rotatab...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0011] Therefore, the structure and control become complicated, causing problems such as increased cost and poor mass productivity. In addition, there are also problems such as slow release speed for clamp release (turret rotation). The applicant has developed such a turret device: as mentioned above, the turret 3 is slid by the air pressure sliding mechanism based on the air supply device, and the wedge part 22 can be used to engage the wedge engaging part 21. The wedge mechanism 24 locks, fixes and maintains the state in which the slide is locked so that it cannot rotate (Japanese Patent No. 4383475)
