Abstract
An inclining and rotating table apparatus is provided with a rotary table device having a driven rotating shaft driven to rotate by a first drive source, and a rotary table driven to rotate by the driven rotating shaft; a driven turning shaft for causing inclination of a table surface of the rotary table device by causing the rotary table device to turn, the driven turning shaft being driven to turn by a second drive source; and a clamping device for clamping at least one of the driven rotating shaft and the driven turning shaft.
Claims13
An inclining and rotating table apparatus comprising:
- a base;
- a rotary table device supported by said base, the rotary table device having
- a driven rotating shaft driven to rotate by a first drive source,
- a rotary table, and
- a rotating turret that is connected to said rotary table and is rotated by said driven rotating shaft;
- and
- an oscillating turret;
- a driven turning shaft on said base for causing inclination of a table surface of said rotary table device by causing said oscillating turret to turn, said driven turning shaft being driven to turn by a second drive source;
- and
- a clamping device for clamping at least one of said driven rotating shaft and said driven turning shaft;
- wherein said clamping device has a thin-walled sleeve arranged such that a gap is provided along a circumferential direction of at least one of said driven rotating shaft and said driven turning shaft;
- said clamping device clamps said at least one of said driven rotating shaft and said driven turning shaft by deforming said thin-walled sleeve towards said at least one of said driven rotating shaft and said driven turning shaft;
- said gap includes an oil;
- and
- a surface of said at least one of said driven rotating shaft and said driven turning shaft is provided with a groove into which said oil flows when said clamping device clamps said at least one of said driven rotating shaft and said driven turning shaft by deforming said thin-walled sleeve towards said at least one of said driven rotating shaft and said driven turning shaft.
