摘要:
The invention relates to improvements in the multiple spindle rotary indexing machine tool systems of the prior art. Traditionally, such machine tool systems include a base and an upstanding vertical column which houses a plurality of machining stations each equipped with two-axis tool slides. In addition, the base supports a rotatable worktable, which carries a number of work-holding spindles. As the worktable rotates, these spindles are indexed through successive machining stations where a variety of operations are performed. In accordance with the invention, a spindle position measurement unit is provided to dynamically measure the exact location of each spindle indexed to position at a modified machining station. A computerized numerical control system calculates spindle position errors based on the position information provided by the measurement unit and offsets tool slide position commands to compensate for those errors. As a result, the control unit compensates for both fixed and variable spindle position variations, thus improving the machining tolerances of the machine tool apparatus. In accordance with another aspect of the invention, a high accuracy finishing station is provided which includes spindle position variation measurement and compensation in combination with an independent X and Y axis tool slide positioning system. The tool slide positioning system is responsive to CNC commands for speed control and position offset due to spindle errors.

A machine for automatically loading elongated bars into an automatic screw machine. Each bar initially is advanced at a rapid rate and with relatively low force by a first fluid-operated actuator. When the leading end of the bar reaches the feed finger of the screw machine, a second fluid-operated actuator advances the bar at a slower speed and with relatively high force. A measuring device measures the distance through which the bar is advanced by the second actuator and automatically stops the advance when the leading end of the bar is located in a predetermined position.

A guide for use in feeding metal bars to a machine tool comprises a plurality of side-by-side units (11) mounted on a drum (21) and each consisting of two equal and substantially semi-circular parts (12, 13), fixed and movable respectively, provision also being made for control means operatively connected to the movable part (13).The parts (12, 13) are each restrained at their own opposite ends, which are provided with stops, to respective rods (17) mounted on a bearing structure (18) fixed to the drum (21). Between the fixed and mobile parts there act one or more springs which thrust the movable part against the fixed part in the guide closure position.

An apparatus for feeding bars to a machine tool, in particular a multispindle lathe, comprising a plurality of pairs of opposed arrays of respectively stationary and movable jaws extending radially from a rotary drum, wherein the movable array of each pair can be distanced from the opposed, stationary array through the intermediary of a control system.The stationary arrays are formed of side-by-side sets of jaws extending radially in one piece from respective central hubs fitted onto the drum and there locked against rotation, whereas the movable arrays are secured to radial tongues swing-mounted on axles carried by the stationary arrays. The control system for the movable arrays is, on the contrary, carried by sets of radial tongues extending from respective central hubs which are also fitted and locked to the drum between the sets of jaws.

The apparatus has a loading drum 3 with rod guide tubes 31, a rod magazine 4, and a rod separator apparatus 5. In order to permit the rod stock of the openable guide tubes 31 to be fed in more than one spindle position, there are provided arms 9 and bails 11 for the rod magazine 4, the separator 5, and the motor 6 of a rod feeding apparatus. The arms 9 and bails 11 are pivotable about a common longitudinal traverse 10 and can be locked in various chosen positions A, B by means of a rod 13 passing through all the arms 9, the bails 11 and through in each case one of a plurality of bores 12', 12", 12"'.

In the formation of a battery, electrodes are connected to connector bars by mounting the electrodes in cassettes on the side of a horizontal rotatable drum. By rotating the drum, the electrodes travel in a vertically oriented, circular travel path between various work stations. Rotary displacement of the electrodes involves forward and rearward movements. All forward movements are of equal distance. All rearward movements are of equal distance. However, the distances of forward movement are different from those of rearward movement. The work stations include an electrode receiving station, a fluxing station, a connector bar casting station, and an electrode removal station. A conveyor travels horizontally through the cylinder, carrying battery containers to receive the electrodes.

A bar holder and feeder for an automatic machine tool comprising an elongated bar holder aligned with the machine tool, which bar holder can be opened to allow bar to be loaded thereinto; loading means to load bar into a loaded position in the bar holder; and a bar feeder positioned between the elongated bar holder and the machine tool, through an open collet of which machine tool bar is to be fed from the bar holder, the bar feeder comprising a sleeve engageable over a bar to be fed at a position externally of the machine tool and feed means to cause axial movement of the sleeve, the sleeve having internal biased gripping means which permit the sleeve to be moved by the feed means over the bar in a direction away from the machine tool but prevent the sleeve being moved by the feed means over the bar in a direction towards the machine tool, whereby a reciprocation of the sleeve by the feed means causes the bar to be fed to the machine tool, and means to prevent movement of the bar from the loaded position in a direction away from the machine tool to enable the sleeve initially to be pressed over the end of the bar nearer the machine tool or means to move the bar towards the machine tool initially to engage the end of the bar nearer the machine tool in the sleeve.The loading means may include a pair of jaws which can grip the bar in the loaded position and prevent movement of the bar away from the machine tool. The feed means may comprise a slide, with which the sleeve can be entrained, movable towards and away from the machine tool by a suspended weight and/or piston/cylinder arrangement.
