Abstract
A boring device according to the present invention includes: a hollow main shaft; a table supporting the main shaft rotatably about a predetermined axis; a tool holder extending in the form of a bar and configured to rotate coaxially with the main shaft; a radially protruding tool provided at a distal end portion of the tool holder; a tilting unit provided between the main shaft and the tool holder in the axis direction and configured to cause the tool holder to be inclined from the axis; a drawbar configured to be movable back and forth in the axis direction within the main shaft; a first drive unit configured to rotate the main shaft about the axis; and a second drive unit configured to move the drawbar back and forth in the axis direction.
Claims5
A boring device comprising:
- a hollow main shaft;
- a table supporting the main shaft rotatably about a predetermined axis;
- a tool holder having a spindle extending in the form of a bar, the tool holder being configured to rotate coaxially with the main shaft;
- a radially protruding tool provided at a distal end portion of the spindle of the tool holder;
- a tilting unit provided between the main shaft and the tool holder in the axis direction and configured to incline the tool holder from the axis;
- a drawbar configured to be movable back and forth in the axis direction within the main shaft;
- a first drive unit configured to rotate the main shaft about the axis;
- and
- a second drive unit configured to move the drawbar back and forth in the axis direction,
- wherein the tilting unit includes:
- a coupling member coupled to the drawbar, the coupling member having a fixing portion provided at a position away from the axis in the radial direction and a first abutting surface facing the main shaft side;
- a mounting base arranged between the coupling member and the main shaft so as to be fixed to the main shaft, the mounting base having a second abutting surface that is opposed to the first abutting surface of the coupling member via a gap of a predetermined length in the axis direction;
- and
- a tilting member coupled to the fixing portion of the coupling member, the tilting member having a deformable portion that is elastically deformable toward a side opposite to the fixing portion with respect to the axis, the tilting member being fixed to the mounting base at a position on an outer side of the deformable portion in the radial direction, and the tilting member supporting the tool holder, wherein
- the tilting member is configured to be inclined toward the main shaft side by deformation of the deformable portion.
