From bearing, with gas, supply with the bearing of supplying with on road 31 and from nozzle 22c, supply with bearing clearance 10 with gas, make the inner peripheral surface of bearing sleeve 22 and the outer peripheral face of rotating shaft 1 as playing a role at the bearing of journals of (diametric(al)) supporting rotating shaft 1 (hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing that axle journal is used) 101 radially.
In addition, from bearing, with the bearing that gas supply road 31 is supplied with, with gas, from nozzle 22c, supply with bearing clearance 10, the end face of bearing sleeve 22 and the upper surface of thrust plate 13 and lower surface are played a role as the thrust bearing (hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing that thrust is used) 102 at axial (axis direction) supporting rotating shaft 1 respectively.
In addition, in the part that deviates from workbench 11 sides of rotating shaft 1, configured the rotor 7a connecting to surround the mode of the outer peripheral face of rotating shaft 1.And configured stator 7b in the relative mode of the outer peripheral face with rotor 7a.Rotor 7a and stator 7b have formed the motor 7 that drives rotating shaft 1 to rotate around rotary middle spindle CR.By the electromagnetic force between rotor 7a and stator 7b, produce the driving force of direction of rotation, rotating shaft 1 is rotated around rotary middle spindle CR.Motor 7 use motor cover 8 cover.
To surround the mode of housing parts 21 and motor cover 8, be provided with coolant jacket 23.Coolant jacket 23 has cold-producing medium supply port 33, refrigerant flow path 34 and cold-producing medium outlet 35.From cold-producing medium supply port 33, supply with the cooling fluid as cold-producing medium or the refrigerating gas of coming, by refrigerant flow path 34, from cold-producing medium outlet 35, discharge.By flowing of this cold-producing medium, make hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft integral body be able to cooling.Can make the temperature stabilization of hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft thus.In addition, can suppress the thermal expansion of hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft.
Refrigerant flow path 34 is by being processed into spiral helicine groove or a plurality of endless groove forms.Therefore, by make coolingly to flow through whole refrigerant flow path 34 with liquid or gas (cold-producing medium) from cold-producing medium supply port 33 the supply system cryogens.When refrigerant flow path 34 is endless groove, it can be also the structure that the endless groove of adjacency is connected by the groove with forming in the rectangular direction of endless groove each other.And this groove can be also single or multiple groove.

By said structure, once supply with road 31 from bearing with gas, to supply with gas for bearing, be compressed air, bearing just flows into bearing of journals portion 101 and thrust bearing division 102 from nozzle 22c with gas.And, because compressed-air actuated supply pressure produces the reaction of bearing that deadweight or external load with rotating shaft 1 balance each other.Therefore, rotating shaft 1 is subject to housing 2 supportings with contactless state, rotarilys actuate around rotary middle spindle CR simultaneously.
The action of the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment is below described.
As shown in Figure 4, when the variation of environment temperature or follow the rotation of rotating shaft 1 of hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft and the heating that produces while making the component parts of hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft produce thermal expansion, housing 2 can distortion and is caused total length to be extended.Result is, housing 2 displacement in axis AX direction.The hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment can coordinate the housing displacement producing because of thermal expansion, and straight line guide 5 is moved to arrow X1 direction in figure in axis AX direction.Therefore the displacement of the housing, producing because of thermal expansion in axis AX direction is almost all absorbed to moving of arrow X1 direction in figure by straight line guide 5.Therefore, the change in location of installed surface 1a is suppressed.
Straight line guide 5 described above adopts line slideway, but also available sliding bearing is used as straight line guide 5.
As shown in Fig. 5~Fig. 7, in the variation 1 of the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, with sliding bearing 52, form straight line guide 5.Sliding bearing 52 has spindle unit 52a, parts of bearings 52b and lubricated part 52c.Spindle unit 52a has towards parts of bearings 52b mono-side and by the taper of the area reducing of side.Parts of bearings 52b is configured to the shape of the taper that can accept spindle unit 52a.The bearing surface of parts of bearings 52b extends along the axis AX direction of housing 2.Between spindle unit 52a and parts of bearings 52b, configured lubricated part 52c.
Spindle unit 52a and parts of bearings 52b relatively slide across lubricated part 52c, make thus spindle unit 52a in axis AX direction, along parts of bearings 52b, move point-blank.Spindle unit 52a is connected with support unit 42, and parts of bearings 52b is connected with fixed part 41, so fixed part 41 and support unit 42 can relatively move by sliding bearing 52, and can move point-blank along axis AX direction.
As the mode of sliding bearing 52, can implement application that oil lubrication, De Fulike coating etc. have lubricity, teflon (registration mark) coating etc. and there is processing of lubricity etc.
In addition, the shape of sliding bearing 52 is not limited to the shape of variation 1.The shape of the sliding bearing 52 of the variation 2 of the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment is different from variation 1.As shown in Figure 8, the spindle unit 52a of the sliding bearing 52 of variation 2 and parts of bearings 52b form rectangle.The convex of spindle unit 52a matches with the spill of parts of bearings 52b.Under the state coordinating in the convex of spindle unit 52a and the spill of parts of bearings 52b, between spindle unit 52a and parts of bearings 52b, across lubricated part 52c, relatively slide, make thus spindle unit 52a in axis AX direction, move point-blank along parts of bearings 52b.
In addition, as straight line guide 5, can also use hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing slide block.
As shown in FIG. 9 and 10, in the variation 3 of the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, with hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing slide block 53, form straight line guide 5.Hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing slide block 53 has the 53a of mounting table portion and guide part 53b.In the direction that the 53a of mounting table portion intersects in the direction of extending with guide part 53b across the outer peripheral face of gap encircles guide part 53b.Bearing gas is supplied with in gap from bearing gas supply device to the 53a of mounting table portion and between guide part 53b.Bearing gas makes with contactless state, to support between the 53a of mounting table portion and guide part 53b.Guide part 53b extends along the axis AX direction of housing 2.
The 53a of mounting table portion is bearing in guide part 53b above and slides along guide part 53b with contactless state by bearing gas, makes thus the 53a of mounting table portion in axis AX direction, move point-blank along guide part 53b.The 53a of mounting table portion is connected with support unit 42, and guide part 53b is connected with fixed part 41, so fixed part 41 and support unit 42 can relatively move by hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing slide block 53, and can move point-blank along axis AX direction.
Compare to illustrate below the action effect of the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment with comparative example.
As shown in Figure 11 and Figure 12, the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of the comparative example of present embodiment is compared with the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, and the main distinction is not have straight line guide.The housing 2 of comparative example is fixed together with set bolt 6a and the first fixed station 3 and the second fixed station 4 respectively, and the first fixed station 3 and the second fixed station 4 are fixed on installation surface PS with bolt 6b is set respectively.
As shown in figure 13, when the variation of environment temperature or follow the rotation of rotating shaft 1 of hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft and the heating that produces while making the temperature of housing 2 increase, housing 2 can deform because of thermal expansion, thereby causes total length to be extended.That is, housing 2 in axis AX direction to X1 direction in figure and the distortion of X2 Directional Extension.Result is, the position of installed surface 1a in axis AX direction to only displacement distance D of X2 direction 1 in figure.
At this moment, the temperature of installation surface PS is still room temperature and does not rise, and thermal expansion does not occur for the first fixed station 3 and the second fixed station 4 lower end separately that therefore contact with installation surface PS.Therefore the distance between the first fixed station 3, contacting with installation surface PS and the second fixed station 4 lower end is separately constant.On the other hand, due to the thermal expansion of housing 2, by the first fixed station 3 and the distance between the second fixed station 4 upper end separately that set bolt 6a is fixed on housing 2, expand.Therefore, the first fixed station 3 and the second fixed station 4 are respectively because the thermal expansion of housing 2 deforms.
On the other hand, according to the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, owing to being configured in than the first fixed station, further from locational second fixed station of installed surface, comprised the straight line guide that can guide point-blank along axis direction, the displacement of the housing 2 that therefore thermal expansion can be caused guides point-blank along axis direction.
Therefore the displacement of the housing 2, producing because of thermal expansion in axis AX direction is almost all absorbed to moving of the second fixed station 4 one sides (arrow X1 direction in figure) by straight line guide 5.Can suppress thus the change in location of installed surface 1a in axis AX direction.
In addition, because the displacement of the housing that thermal expansion can be caused is guided point-blank along axis AX direction, therefore can suppress the second distortion of fixed station 4 in short transverse.Can suppress thus the change in location of installed surface 1a in short transverse.
In addition, owing to can suppressing the second fixed station 4, in short transverse, be out of shape, therefore can make housing 2 and installation surface PS keep almost parallel by the first fixed station 3 and the second fixed station 4.Therefore housing 2 can be with respect to installation surface PS and parallel.Can suppress thus the situation that installed surface 1a tilts with respect to installation surface PS.
Owing to can suppressing as described above the change in location of installed surface 1a, the change in location that therefore can suppress to process object.Can implement high-precision processing thus.
In addition, according to the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, the second fixed station 4 has: be fixed on the fixed part 41 on installation surface PS; And be arranged on housing 2 and can with respect to fixed part 41, make the support unit 42 relatively moving by straight line guide 5.The displacement of the housing causing because of thermal expansion 2 can be guided point-blank along axis AX direction thus.
In addition, according to the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, straight line guide 5 also can form with line slideway 51.Thus, can the displacement of the housing causing because of thermal expansion 2 be guided along axis AX direction enough line slideways 51 point-blank.
In addition, according to the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, straight line guide 5 also can form with sliding bearing 52.Thus, can the displacement of the housing causing because of thermal expansion 2 be guided along axis AX direction enough sliding bearings 52 point-blank.
In addition, according to the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, straight line guide 5 also can form with hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing slide block 53.Thus, can the displacement of the housing causing because of thermal expansion 2 be guided along axis AX direction enough hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing slide blocks 53 point-blank.
As shown in figure 14, when the variation of environment temperature or follow the rotation of rotating shaft 1 of hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft and the heating that produces while making the temperature of housing 2 increase, housing 2 can deform and expand towards radially (arrow Y1 direction in figure).Now, housing 2 is centered by the axis AX of housing 2 and towards radial deformation.Therefore,, once housing 2 and the first fixed station 3 and the second fixed station 4 is fixing on the position of axis AX, housing 2 distortion diametrically just can not make the first fixed station 3 and second fixed station 4 displacement in short transverse.Therefore, the position of the set bolt 6a of the first fixed station 3 and the second fixed station 4 preferably and axis AX in sustained height, from reality, be that highly more to approach axis AX better.

When there is thermal expansion because temperature rises in the first fixed station 3 and the second fixed station 4, thermal expansion meeting make housing 2 take installation surface PS as benchmark upward (arrow Y2 direction in Fig. 2) mention.Result is, even if the first fixed station 3 and the second fixed station 4 are fixed on the position of the axis AX of housing 2, housing 2 is displacement distance D upward 2 also.Thereby make also displacement upward of installed surface 1a, so there is variation in the position of installed surface 1a.
On the other hand, while adopting the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, because the second fixed station 4 use thermal coefficient of expansions are 8 * 10- 6material below/K forms, and therefore can suppress the thermal expansion of the second fixed station 4.The change in location that therefore, can suppress the installed surface 1a that the thermal expansion because of the second fixed station 4 causes.
In addition, while adopting the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, by making gas flow enter stream 4b, the second fixed station 4 is cooling, the change in location of the installed surface 1a that therefore can cause by the thermal expansion suppressing by gas cooled because of the second fixed station.
In addition, while adopting the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, by making liquid flow into stream 4b, the second fixed station 4 is cooling, the change in location of the installed surface 1a that therefore can cause by the thermal expansion suppressing by liquid cools because of the second fixed station 4.
In addition, while adopting the hydrostatic gas-lubricated bearing main shaft of present embodiment, the second fixed station 4 also has fin 4d, therefore can be by the change in location of the installed surface 1a that causes with the cooling thermal expansion suppressing because of the second fixed station 2 of fin 4d.
And low-thermal-expansion material and cooling body can and be used simultaneously.That is can be also, 8 * 10 with thermal coefficient of expansion -6material below/K forms cooling body.The performance that can further play stably like this.
The respective embodiments described above can be appropriately combined.
Disclosed embodiment is example in all respects above, rather than limits.Scope of the present invention is not limited by above explanation, but is represented by claims, comprises and the meaning of claims equalization and all changes of doing within the scope of claim.
