Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Werkzeugmaschine mit wenigstens einer Werkzeughalterung, an welcher ein Stanzwerkzeug anordenbar ist sowie mit einem Werkzeug-Hubantrieb, mittels dessen die Werkzeughalterung zu dem Arbeitsbereich der Werkzeugmaschine hin und zurück in einer Hubrichtung bewegbar ist, wobei die Werkzeughalterung eine zu dem Arbeitsbereich der Werkzeugmaschine hin mündende und in Hubrichtung durchlässige Öffnung aufweist.The invention relates to a machine tool having at least one tool holder, on which a punching tool can be arranged and with a tool lifting drive, by means of which the tool holder is movable to the working area of the machine tool back and forth in a stroke direction, wherein the tool holder a to the working area of the machine tool has opening and permeable opening in the stroke direction.

Eine derartige Werkzeugmaschine ist offenbart in EP 0 417 836 B1. Der Stand der Technik betrifft eine Stanzmaschine mit einer heb- und senkbaren Matrize. Die Hubbewegung der Matrize wird mittels eines Werkzeug-Hubantriebes erzeugt, der seinerseits eine hydraulische Kolben-Zylinder-Einheit sowie ein Keilgetriebe umfasst. Die Kolben-Zylinder-Einheit ist liegend angeordnet und bewegt einen ersten Getriebekeil des Keilgetriebes in horizontaler Richtung. Der erste Getriebekeil ist an seiner nach oben weisenden Seite mit einer gegen die Horizontale geneigten Keilfläche versehen. An dieser Keilfläche des ersten Getriebekeils ist ein zweiter Getriebekeil des Keilgetriebes mit einer entsprechenden Keilfläche abgestützt. Der zweite Getriebekeil lagert an seiner Oberseite einen Matrizenhalter und über diesen die anzuhebende oder abzusenkende Matrize. Mittels des Keilgetriebes wird die horizontal gerichtete Antriebsbewegung der Kolben-Zylinder-Einheit in eine vertikale Bewegung der Matrize umgesetzt. Neben der Matrize sind auch der Matrizenhalter sowie die Getriebekeile des Keilgetriebes mit in vertikaler Richtung durchlässigen Öffnungen versehen, durch welche beispielsweise an der Bearbeitungsstelle entstehender Stanzabfall den Arbeitsbereich der Maschine verlassen kann.Such a machine tool is disclosed in EP 0 417 836 B1. The prior art relates to a punching machine with a raised and lowered die. The lifting movement of the die is generated by means of a tool lifting drive, which in turn comprises a hydraulic piston-cylinder unit and a wedge gear. The piston-cylinder unit is arranged horizontally and moves a first gear wedge of the wedge in the horizontal direction. The first gear wedge is provided on its upwardly facing side with an inclined against the horizontal wedge surface. At this wedge surface of the first gear wedge a second gear wedge of the wedge gear is supported with a corresponding wedge surface. The second gear wedge stored on its upper side a die holder and on this the raised or lowered die. By means of the wedge gear, the horizontally directed drive movement of the piston-cylinder unit is converted into a vertical movement of the die. In addition to the die and the die holder and the gear wedges of the wedge gear are provided with openings permeable in the vertical direction through which, for example, at the processing point resulting punching waste can leave the work area of the machine.

Aufgrund der beschriebenen Konfiguration baut der Werkzeug-Hubantrieb der vorbekannten Stanzmaschine und somit auch die Stanzmaschine selbst verhältnismäßig groß.Due to the described configuration of the tool lifting drive of the prior art punching machine and thus also the punching machine itself builds relatively large.

Den Stand der Technik dahingehend weiterzubilden, dass sich eine kompakte Bauweise des Werkzeug-Hubantriebes und somit eine kompakte Bauweise der Gesamtmaschine ergibt, hat sich die vorliegende Erfindung zum Ziel gesetzt.To develop the state of the art to the effect that results in a compact design of the tool lifting drive and thus a compact design of the overall machine, the present invention has set itself the goal.

Erfindungsgemäß gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch die Werkzeugmaschine nach Patentanspruch 1. Im Falle der Erfindung ist demnach ein Werkzeug-Hubantrieb mit einem Spindeltrieb vorgesehen, dessen wenigstens eine Spindel in Hubrichtung verläuft. Jedenfalls quer zu der Hubrichtung und bei ensprechender Gestaltung auch in Hubrichtung baut der erfindungsgemäße Werkzeug-Hubantrieb ausgesprochen kompakt. Gleichzeitig wird ein sich in Hubrichtung in der Öffnung der Werkzeughalterung fortsetzender Durchlass freigelassen. Die Zugänglichkeit des Arbeitsbereiches der Werkzeugmaschine bzw. des Bearbeitungswerkzeuges durch die Werkzeughalterung hindurch wird folglich durch das Vorhandensein des Werkzeug-Hubantriebes nicht beeinträchtigt. Der Durchlass kann beispielsweise bei in der Werkzeughalterung eingebauter Stanzmatrize dazu dienen, Stanzabfall aus dem Arbeitsbereich der Werkzeugmaschine abzuführen. Lässt sich an der Werkzeughalterung alternativ zu einem Stanzwerkzeug etwa ein Laserschneidkopf anbringen, so kann diesem der von der Strahlquelle stammende Laserstrahl durch den von dem Spindeltrieb und/oder dem Drehantrieb des Werkzeug-Hubantriebes freigelassenen Durchlass hindurch zugeleitet werden.According to the invention this object is achieved by the machine tool according to claim 1. In the case of the invention, therefore, a tool lifting drive is provided with a spindle drive, whose at least one spindle extends in the stroke direction. In any case, transverse to the stroke direction and ensprechender design in the stroke direction of the tool lifting drive according to the invention is extremely compact. At the same time, a passage continuing in the stroke direction in the opening of the tool holder is released. The accessibility of the working area of the machine tool or of the machining tool through the tool holder is consequently not impaired by the presence of the tool lifting drive. The passage can serve, for example, in the tool holder integrated punching die to remove punching waste from the work area of the machine tool. If, for example, a laser cutting head can be attached to the tool holder as an alternative to a punching tool, then the laser beam originating from the beam source can be supplied to it through the passage left free by the spindle drive and / or the rotary drive of the tool lifting drive.

Besondere Ausführungsarten der in Patentanspruch 1 beschriebenen Erfindung ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Patentansprüchen 1 bis 10.Particular embodiments of the invention described in claim 1 result from the dependent claims 1 to 10.

Gemäß Patentanspruch 2 wird der sich in Hubrichtung in der Öffnung der Werkzeughalterung fortsetzende Durchlass von der Innenaussparung einer Hohlspindel des Spindeltriebes ausgebildet. Diese Erfindungsbauart zeichnet sich durch eine besondere Kompaktheit aus.According to claim 2, the continuation in the stroke direction in the opening of the tool holder passage is formed by the inner recess of a hollow spindle of the spindle drive. This invention type is characterized by a special compactness.

Ausweislich Patentanspruch 3 kann der Spindeltrieb erfindungsgemäßer Werkzeugmaschinen mehrere Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheiten umfassen, die um den sich in der Öffnung der Werkzeughalterung fortsetzenden Durchlass herum angeordnet sind. Auch ist es im Sinne der Erfindung denkbar, eine Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheit mit einer den genannten Durchlass ausbildenden Hohlspindel vorzusehen und darüber hinaus wenigstens eine weitere Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheit von dem Durchlass beabstandet anzuordnen.As shown in claim 3, the spindle drive of machine tools according to the invention may comprise a plurality of spindle-spindle nut units arranged around the passage continuing in the opening of the tool holder. It is also conceivable within the meaning of the invention to provide a spindle-spindle nut unit with a hollow spindle forming said passage and, moreover, to arrange at least one further spindle-spindle nut unit spaced from the passage.

Die genannten Mehrspindellösungen zeichnen sich generell durch eine hohe Dynamik aus. Sie gestatten es, schnelle kurze Hübe der Werkzeughalterung mit hohen Beschleunigungen auszuführen. Darüber hinaus erlaubt die Verwendung einer Mehrzahl von Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheiten die Übertragung besonders großer Kräfte. Schließlich können bei Einsatz mehrerer Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheiten diese selbst bei den auszuführenden Hüben als Verdrehsicherung der Werkzeughalterung bzw. eines mit der Werkzeughalterung versehenen Gehäuses genutzt werden. Aufwändige Maßnahmen zur Verdrehsicherung erübrigen sich dementsprechend. Dieser Umstand wiederum trägt zu einer kompakten Bauweise der Gesamtanordnung bei.The mentioned multi-spindle solutions are generally characterized by high dynamics. They make it possible to perform fast short strokes of the tool holder with high accelerations. In addition, the use of a plurality of spindle-spindle nut units allows the transmission of particularly large forces. Finally, when using multiple spindle-spindle nut units, these even in the strokes to be executed be used as rotation of the tool holder or provided with the tool holder housing. Elaborate measures to prevent rotation are unnecessary accordingly. This circumstance in turn contributes to a compact design of the overall arrangement.

Für erfindungsgemäße Werkzeugmaschinen bevorzugte Möglichkeiten zur Konfiguration des Drehantriebes des Werkzeug-Hubantriebes sind in den Patentansprüchen 4 bis 9 beschrieben.For machine tools according to the invention preferred ways of configuring the rotary drive of the tool lifting drive are described in the claims 4 to 9.

Die genannten Antriebs-Hohlräder mit Innenaussparung sind im Interesse einer kompakten Bauweise des Drehantriebes und somit des gesamten werkzeug-Hubantriebes vorgesehen. Eine besonders platzsparende Anordnung ergibt sich, wenn ein Antriebs-Hohlrad eine oder mehrere Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheiten ohne Zwischengetriebe antreibt (Patentanspruch 5). In diesem Fall bedarf es zwischen dem Antriebs-Hohlrad und der oder den betreffenden Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheiten lediglich einer Kupplung. Denkbar sind elastische ebenso wie starre, schaltbare ebenso wie nicht schaltbare Kupplungen.Said drive ring gears with internal recess are provided in the interest of a compact design of the rotary drive and thus the entire tool Hubantriebes. A particularly space-saving arrangement results when a drive ring gear drives one or more spindle spindle nut units without intermediate gear (claim 5). In this case, it only requires a clutch between the drive ring gear and the spindle or spindle nut units concerned. Conceivable are elastic as well as rigid, switchable as well as non-switchable couplings.

Eine besondere Kompaktheit des Werkzeug-Hubantriebes ergibt sich, wenn das Antriebs-Hohlrad von dem Rotor eines als Antriebsmotor für den Werkzeug-Hubantrieb dienenden Elektromotors ausgebildet ist (Patentanspruch 6). Insbesondere wenn als Elektromotor ein Torque-Motor zum Einsatz kommt, können auf den oder die Spindeltriebe hohe Drehmomente ohne Zwischengetriebe übertragen werden.A special compactness of the tool lifting drive is obtained when the drive ring gear is formed by the rotor of a motor serving as a drive motor for the tool lifting electric motor (claim 6). In particular, when a torque motor is used as the electric motor, can on the or the spindle drives high torques are transmitted without intermediate gear.

Ausweislich Patentanspruch 7 umgreift das Antriebs-Hohlrad die wenigstens eine anzutreibende Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheit.As shown in claim 7, the drive ring gear surrounds the at least one spindle-spindle nut unit to be driven.

Gemäß den Patentansprüchen 8 und 9 kann ein und dasselbe Antriebs-Hohlrad zum gemeinschaftlichen Antrieb einer Mehrzahl von Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheiten dienen.According to claims 8 and 9, one and the same drive ring gear can be used to jointly drive a plurality of spindle-spindle nut units.

Der kompakte Werkzeug-Hubantrieb erfindungsgemäßer Werkzeugmaschinen lässt sich insbesondere zum Antrieb von Stanzstempeln und/oder von Stanzmatrizen einsetzen (Patentanspruch 10). Als Hübe können dabei sowohl Arbeitshübe zur stanzenden Werkstückbearbeitung als auch Stellhübe zur Positionierung des betreffenden Stanzwerkzeuges ausgeführt werden.The compact tool-lifting drive according to the invention machine tools can be used in particular for driving punch punches and / or punching dies (claim 10). As strokes can be performed both strokes for punching workpiece machining and adjusting strokes for positioning of the punching tool in question.

It comprises a spindle drive 16 with a spindle-spindle nut unit 17 and a rotary drive 18 provided for this purpose. Parts of the spindle-spindle nut unit 17 are a spindle 19 designed as a hollow spindle and a spindle nut 20. The spindle 19 extends with an axis 21 in the spindle It is rotatably mounted on a housing 22 of the tool lifting drive 15 about the axis 21 and non-displaceably in the direction of the axis 21. In its interior, it has an open at both axial ends inner recess 23.

Der Drehantrieb 18 für die Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheit 17 ist elektromotorischer Bauart. Ein Torque-Motor 24 dient als Antriebsmotor und ist mit einem Stator 25 an dem Gehäuse 22 des Werkzeug-Hubantriebes 15 gelagert. Ein Rotor 26 des Torque-Motors 24 läuft um die Achse 21 der Spindel 19 um und ist an einem Außenflansch der Spindel 19 mit dieser starr gekuppelt. Ein in Fig. 2 erkennbares Gehäuse des Torque-Motors 24 ist in Fig. 3 der Einfachheit halber nicht dargestellt.The rotary drive 18 for the spindle-spindle nut unit 17 is of electric motor type. A torque motor 24 serves as a drive motor and is mounted with a stator 25 on the housing 22 of the tool lifting drive 15. A rotor 26 of the torque motor 24 rotates about the axis 21 of the spindle 19 and is rigidly coupled to an outer flange of the spindle 19 with this. A recognizable in Fig. 2 housing of the torque motor 24 is not shown in Fig. 3 for the sake of simplicity.

Die Spindelmutter 20 der Spindel-Spindelmutter-Einheit 17 ist mit einer Werkzeughalterung 27 für die Stanzmatrize 7 antriebsverbunden. Eine entsprechende Formschlussverbindung 28 zwischen der Spindelmutter 20 und der Werkzeughalterung 27 ist in Richtung der Achse 21 der Spindel 19 und somit in der Hubrichtung 6 wirksam. Eine Mitnahme der werkzeughalterung 27 sowie der Spindelmutter 20 durch die um die Achse 21 umlaufende Spindel 19 wird durch eine nicht im Einzelnen gezeigte Drehsicherung der Werkzeughalterung 27 verhindert. Eine Dreh-Einstellbewegung der Werkzeughalterung 27 um die Achse 21 der Spindel 19 kann jedoch mittels eines Stellmotors 29 ausgeführt werden. Der Stellmotor 29 dient zur Einstellung der Stanzmatrize 7 in Richtung des Doppelpfeils 8 in Fig. 1. Bei der Dreheinstellung der Werkzeughalterung 27 bzw. der Stanzmatrize 7 ist die Drehsicherung der Werkzeughalterung 27 außer Funktion gesetzt.The spindle nut 20 of the spindle-spindle nut unit 17 is drive-connected to a tool holder 27 for the punching die 7. A corresponding positive connection 28 between the spindle nut 20 and the tool holder 27 is in the direction of the axis 21 of the spindle 19 and thus in the stroke direction. 6 effective. A entrainment of the tool holder 27 and the spindle nut 20 by the rotating around the axis 21 spindle 19 is prevented by a not shown in detail rotation of the tool holder 27. However, a rotational adjustment movement of the tool holder 27 about the axis 21 of the spindle 19 can be carried out by means of a servomotor 29. The servo motor 29 is used to set the punching die 7 in the direction of the double arrow 8 in FIG. 1. In the rotary adjustment of the tool holder 27 and the punching die 7, the rotation of the tool holder 27 is disabled.

Mittels des Werkzeug-Hubantriebes 15 ist die Stanzmatrize 7 in der Hubrichtung 6 heb- und senkbar. In Fig. 2 ist die Stanzmatrize 7 in ihrer oberen Endstellung gezeigt. Diese Stellung nimmt die Stanzmatrize 7 bei der stanzenden Bearbeitung des Bleches 13 ein. Ist nach der Erstellung einer Stanzung das Blech 13 mittels der Koordinatenführung 14 gegenüber dem Stanzstempel 5 und der Stanzmatrize 7 zu verschieben, so wird die Stanzmatrize 7 mittels des Werkzeug-Hubantriebes 15 abgesenkt. Auf diese Art und Weise wird vermieden, dass das Blech 13 bei seiner anschließenden Bewegung mittels der Koordinatenführung 14 an seiner Unterseite mit der Stanzmatrize 7 in Kontakt ist und sich infolgedessen Kratzer an der Unterseite des Bleches 13 bilden. Denkbar ist darüber hinaus die Verwendung des Werkzeug-Hubantriebes 15 zur Ausführung der für die stanzende Bearbeitung des Bleches 13 erforderlichen Arbeitshübe. In diesem Fall wird die Relativbewegung zwischen Stanzstempel 5 und Stanzmatrize 7 bei in der Hubrichtung 6 ortsfestem Stanzstempel 5 durch Hubbewegung der Stanzmatrize 7 erzeugt.By means of the tool lifting drive 15, the punching die 7 in the lifting direction 6 can be raised and lowered. In Fig. 2, the punching die 7 is shown in its upper end position. This position takes the punching die 7 in the punching processing of the sheet 13 a. If, after the production of a punching, the sheet metal 13 is to be displaced by means of the coordinate guide 14 with respect to the punch 5 and the punching die 7, the punching die 7 is lowered by means of the tool lifting drive 15. In this way it is avoided that the sheet 13 is in its subsequent movement by means of the coordinate guide 14 on its underside with the punching die 7 in contact and consequently form scratches on the underside of the sheet 13. It is conceivable beyond the use of the tool lifting drive 15 for carrying out the necessary for the punching processing of the sheet 13 strokes. In this case the relative movement between punch 5 and punching die 7 is generated in the stroke direction 6 stationary punch 5 by lifting movement of the punching die 7.
