[0042] The present disclosure provides a portable helical milling unit including a tool 2, an eccentric spindle 1, an outer sleeve 12, a sleeve housing 14, and a plurality of transmission mechanisms for providing power. The eccentric spindle 1 is detachably sleeved in an inner hole of output section of the outer sleeve 12. Each of the eccentric spindle 1 and the outer sleeve 12 has a pre-set eccentricity. The tool 2 is in connection with the output side of the eccentric spindle 1. The eccentric spindle 1 is detachably connected in the outer sleeve 12. The outer sleeve 12 is installed in the sleeve housing 14 through a sliding bearing 13. An input side of the outer sleeve 12 is in connection with a first transmission mechanism and a third transmission mechanism, and an input side of the eccentric spindle 1 is in connection with a second transmission mechanism. The third transmission mechanism is used to drive the outer sleeve 12 to rotate relative to the outer sleeve housing 14 to enable the tool 2 to rotate around the axis of the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12. The first transmission mechanism is used to drive the outer sleeve 12 to move back and forth relative to the axis direction of the sleeve housing 14 to achieve the feed motion of the tool 2. The second transmission mechanism is used to drive the eccentric spindle 1 to rotate so as to rotate the tool 2.

[0043] The output section of the outer sleeve 12 is an eccentric structure, i.e., the axis of the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve has a certain eccentricity e.sub.0 with the axis of the inner hole of the output section of the outer sleeve 14. The middle section and the input section of the outer sleeve are concentric, i.e., the axis of the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve is concentric with the axes of the inner holes of the middle section and the input section of the outer sleeve 12.

[0044] The structure of the eccentric spindle 1 has three solutions as follows:

[0045] For solution M1 as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, when the processing object is a hole having a smaller diameter, the eccentric spindle 1 includes a spindle 5 and an inner sleeve 9 having an eccentric structure, that is, the axis of the outer cylindrical surface of the eccentric spindle 1 has a certain eccentricity e.sub.n with the axis of the inner hole, and the spindle 5 is sleeved in the inner hole of the inner sleeve 9 through a spindle bearing 10. The tool 2 is installed at the front end of the spindle 5.

[0047] For solution M3 as shown in FIG. 8, when the processing object is a hole having a lager diameter, the eccentric spindle 1 includes an inner sleeve 9, a spindle 5 and an eccentricity adjustment mechanism. The eccentricity adjustment mechanism includes a gear transmission shaft 4, a rotating shaft 3, a first gear 6, a second gear 7 and a third gear 8. The inner sleeve 9 is a concentric structure, and the spindle 5 is sleeved in the inner hole of the inner sleeve 9 through a spindle bearing 10. The output end of the spindle 5 is installed with the first gear 6 which is meshed with the third gear 8 for transmission. The third gear 8 is installed on the gear transmission shaft 4 and meshed with the second gear 7 for transmission. The second gear 7 is installed at the input end of the rotating shaft 3 which is installed on the inner sleeve 9 through a bearing 11, and the tool 2 is installed at a front end of the rotating shaft 3. A distance between axes of the first gear 6 and the second gear 7 is e.sub.n.

[0048] The first transmission mechanism includes a first motor 15 and a lead screw 18. The first motor 15 is horizontally installed on the sleeve housing 14. The output end of the first motor 15 is in connection with the lead screw 18 through a lead screw coupling 16. One end of the lead screw 18 is installed in a mounting hole of a lead screw support base 17, and the other end is sleeved in a lead screw nut 22.

[0049] The lead screw support base 17 is horizontally installed on the sleeve housing 14, and the lead screw nut 22 is installed on a translational plate 20.

[0050] The second transmission mechanism includes a second motor 19 and a transmission shaft 28. The output end of the second motor 19 is in connection with the input end of the transmission shaft 28, and the output end of the transmission shaft 28 is in connection with the input end of the spindle 5.

[0051] The third transmission mechanism includes a third motor 32 and a first synchronous cog belt, the input end of the outer sleeve 12 is installed with a third synchronous cog belt wheel 26. The third synchronous cog belt wheel 26 is in connection with a fourth synchronous cog belt wheel 27 installed at the output end of the third motor 32 through the first synchronous cog belt.

[0052] The outer side of the input section of the outer sleeve 12 is in connection with the translational plate 20 through a revolution bearing 30.

[0053] The second motor 19 and the third motor 32 are installed on the translational plate 20. The input end of the transmission shaft 28 is installed with the second synchronous cog belt wheel 25 which is in connection with the first synchronous cog belt wheel 24 installed on the output end of the second motor 19 through the second synchronous cog belt.

[0054] The second transmission mechanism further includes an encoder 23 for measuring a rotational speed of the spindle 5. The encoder 23 is installed at the output end of the second motor 19 or the output end of the transmission shaft 28. The housing of the encoder 23 is fixed on the translational plate 20 through an encoder support base 21.

[0055] The transmission shaft 28 is installed at the input section of the outer sleeve 12 through a transmission bearing 29. A circular shaft of the output end of the transmission shaft 28 is in connection with the input end of a universal joint coupling 35 through a key joint, and the output end of the universal joint coupling 35 is in connection with the input end of the spindle 5. The universal joint coupling 35 is a double cross-shaft universal joint coupling and located in the inner hole of the middle section of the outer sleeve 12. This structure makes the two shafts not on the same axis, and can realize continuous rotation of the two linked shafts in the case of axis offset and reliably transmit torque and motion. The two ends of the universal joint coupling 35 are respectively in connection with the spindle 5 and the transmission shaft 28. The axis of the spindle 5 has a certain eccentricity e with the axis of the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12, and the axis of the transmission shaft 28 is concentric with the axis of the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12. Therefore, the universal joint coupling 35 can realize the transmission between the spindle 5 with a larger eccentricity and the transmission shaft 28.

[0056] The helical filling unit further includes an optical shaft. One end of the optical shaft 33 is fixedly installed on the sleeve housing 14, and the other end is sleeved in a slider of the optical shaft 31. The slider 31 is installed on the translational plate 20. The optical shaft 33 is used to maintain the translational plate 20 in a vertical state, i.e., the translational plate 20 can only move in the axis direction of the tool 2 rather than rotate.

[0057] An outer side of the output end of the sleeve housing 14 is fixed to the housing 36 through a flange, and both sides of the housing are installed with handles 34.

[0058] The front side of the flange is fixed with a positioning shaft sleeve 38.

[0059] The working principle of the revolution motion of the portable helical milling unit is as follows: the third motor 32 drives the outer sleeve 12 to rotate relative to the sleeve housing 14 and the translational plate 20 by the synchronous cog belt wheel and the cog belt, so as to drive the inner sleeve 9 to rotate; when the outer sleeve 12 and the inner sleeve 9 are relatively stationary, the eccentricity e of the tool 2 relative to the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12 keeps constant to realize the revolution motion of the tool 2.

[0060] The working principle of the feed motion of the portable helical milling unit is as follows: the first motor 15 drives the translational plate 20 to move along the axis direction through the lead screw 18 so as to drive the outer sleeve 12 to move along the axis direction relative to the sleeve housing 14 to realize the axial feed motion of the tool 2.

[0061] During the process of the second motor 19 driving the transmission shaft 28 to rotate, the position of the axis of the transmission shaft 28 remains unchanged when the third motor 32 drives the outer sleeve 12 to rotate, which is convenient for the second motor 19 to transmit power to the transmission shaft 28 through the synchronous cog belt wheel.

[0062] The working principle of the rotation of the spindle 5 of the portable helical milling unit is as follows:

[0063] As for the solution M1, the second motor 19 drives the transmission shaft 28 to rotate through the synchronous cog belt wheel and the cog belt, and the transmission shaft 28 concentric with the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12 transmits power to the spindle 5 eccentric with the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12 through the universal joint coupling 35, so as to drive the spindle 5 to rotate to realize the rotation of the tool 2. The encoder 23 detects the real-time rotational speed of the tool 2.

[0064] As for the solution M2, the second motor 19 drives the transmission shaft 28 to rotate through the synchronous cog belt wheel and the cog belt, and the transmission shaft 28 concentric with the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12 transmits power to the spindle 5 eccentric with the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12 through the universal joint coupling 35, so as to drive the first gear 6 at the front end of the spindle 5 to rotate, and the first gear 6 drives the second gear 7 to rotate through meshing to realize the rotation of the tool 2 at the front end of the second gear 7. The encoder 23 detects the real-time rotational speed of the spindle 5.

[0065] As for the solution M3, the second motor 19 drives the transmission shaft 28 to rotate through the synchronous cog belt wheel and the cog belt, and the transmission shaft 28 concentric with the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12 transmits power to the spindle 5 eccentric with the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12 through the universal joint coupling 35, so as to drive the first gear 6 at the front end of the spindle 5 to rotate, and the first gear 6 drives the third gear 8 to rotate through meshing and the third gear 8 drives the second gear 7 to rotate through meshing to realize the rotation of the tool 2 at the front end of the second gear 7. The encoder 23 detects the real-time rotational speed of the spindle 5.

[0066] The working principle of the eccentricity adjustment of the portable helical milling unit is as follows:

[0067] As shown in FIG. 3, as for the solution M1, the eccentricity adjustment method includes that:

[0068] The helical milling unit is equipped with a plurality of eccentric spindles 1 having different specifications, i.e., the eccentric spindles 1 have different eccentricities e.sub.n from each other. According to the size of the eccentricity to be adjusted, e.sub.n is changed by replacing the eccentric spindle 1 with different specifications to roughly adjust the eccentricity. The outer circumferential surface of the front end of the eccentric spindle 1 is engraved with an eccentricity adjustment scale ring. Rotate the eccentric spindle 1 to produce a relative rotation between the eccentric spindle 1 and the outer sleeve 12, i.e., to change the relative position of the eccentric spindle 1 and the outer sleeve 12. Adjust the scale ring, i.e., adjust the relative angle θ between the outer sleeve 12 and the eccentric spindle 1 to finely adjust the eccentricity, so that the eccentricity e of the tool 2 relative to the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve 12 is changed so as to obtain different eccentricities e of the tool 2, e=√{square root over (e.sub.0.sup.2+e.sub.n.sup.2−2e.sub.0e.sub.n cos(θ))}, wherein the value range of e is |e.sub.n−e.sub.0|≤e≤|e.sub.n+e.sub.0|. After completion of the angle adjustment, the eccentric spindle 1 and the outer sleeve 12 are fixed.

[0069] As shown in FIG. 7, as for the solution M2, the eccentricity adjustment method includes that: The helical milling unit is equipped with a plurality of eccentric spindles 1 having different specifications, i.e., the models of the first gear 6 and the second gear 7 of different eccentric spindles are different, which results in different distances e.sub.n between axes of the first gear 6 and the second gear 7 of different eccentric spindles, i.e., the eccentric spindles 1 have different eccentricities e.sub.n from each other. According to the size of the eccentricity to be adjusted, e.sub.n is changed by replacing the eccentric spindle 1 with different specifications to roughly adjust the eccentricity. The outer circumferential surface of the front end of the eccentric spindle 1 is engraved with an eccentricity adjustment scale ring. Rotate the eccentric spindle 1 to produce a relative rotation between the eccentric spindle 1 and the outer sleeve 12, i.e., to change the relative position of the eccentric spindle 1 and the outer sleeve 12.

[0080] As for the solution M3, the eccentricity adjustment method includes the following steps that:

[0081] The helical milling unit is equipped with a plurality of eccentric spindles having different specifications, i.e., the models of the first gear, the second gear and the third gear are different, which results in different distances e.sub.n between axes of different eccentric spindles. According to the size of the eccentricity to be adjusted, the distance e.sub.n between axes are changed by replacing the eccentric spindle with different specifications to roughly adjust the eccentricity. By rotating the eccentric spindle to enable it to rotate relative to the outer sleeve, the relative angle θ between the outer sleeve and the eccentric spindle is adjusted to finely adjust the eccentricity so as to change the eccentricity e of the tool relative to the outer cylindrical surface of the outer sleeve, so that different eccentricities of the helical milling unit are obtained to be e=√{square root over (e.sub.0.sup.2+e.sub.n.sup.2−2e.sub.0e.sub.n cos(θ))}, and the value range of e is |e.sub.n−e.sub.0|≤e≤|e.sub.n+e.sub.0|.
