For the purpose of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
As shown in fig. 1-2, the present invention discloses a hydrostatic bearing for a hydrostatic turntable, the disclosed hydrostatic bearing comprising a rotor and a restrictor assembly 200, wherein:
the rotor includes a first thrust plate 110, a second thrust plate 120, and a hemispherical bearing 130, where the first thrust plate 110 and the second thrust plate 120 are disposed opposite to each other, the hemispherical bearing 130 is disposed between the first thrust plate 110 and the second thrust plate 120, and the first thrust plate 110, the hemispherical bearing 130, and the second thrust plate 120 are fixedly connected. Alternatively, the first thrust plate 110 and the hemispherical bearing 130 may be coupled by screw fixation, and the second thrust plate 120 and the hemispherical bearing 130 may be coupled by screw fixation.
The first thrust plate 110 and the second thrust plate 120 are each perpendicular to the center line a of the hemispherical bearing 130. The hemispherical bearing 130 may include a first plane and a second plane disposed opposite to each other, the first plane being opposite to and parallel to the first thrust plate 110, the second plane being opposite to and parallel to the second thrust plate 120, and an axis of the hemispherical bearing 130 perpendicular to the first plane and the second plane being a center line a of the hemispherical bearing 130.
The restrictor assembly 200 is rotatably matched with the rotating body, a first air gap 310 is formed between the restrictor assembly 200 and the first thrust plate 110, a second air gap 320 is formed between the restrictor assembly 200 and the hemispherical bearing 130, the restrictor assembly 200 is provided with a plurality of first air outlet holes and a plurality of second air outlet holes, the first air outlet holes face the first thrust plate 110, compressed air is discharged towards the direction of the first thrust plate 110 through the first air outlet holes so as to form an air mold in the first air gap 310, the second air outlet holes face the hemispherical bearing 130, and compressed air is discharged towards the direction of the hemispherical bearing 130 through the second air outlet holes so as to form an air mold in the second air gap 320.
The restrictor assembly 200 may be provided with a first air path, which may have a first air inlet hole and a first air outlet hole that are communicated, the first air inlet hole is used for communicating an external compressed air source, so that compressed air can be introduced into the first air gap 310 through the first air outlet hole, and the restrictor assembly 200 may also be provided with a second air path, which has a second air inlet hole and a second air outlet hole that are communicated, and the second air inlet hole is used for communicating an external compressed air source, so that compressed air is introduced into the second air gap 320 through the second air outlet hole.
Referring again to fig. 1, the air outlet direction of the first air outlet hole may be perpendicular to the first thrust plate 110, so that the compressed air discharged through the first air outlet hole can act on the first thrust plate 110, forming a restraining force F toward the first thrust plate 110 and perpendicular to the first thrust plate 110. The air outlet direction of the second air outlet hole may be toward the center of the hemisphere bearing 130 such that the compressed air discharged through the second air outlet hole acts on the hemisphere bearing 130 to form a restraining force fball toward the center of the hemisphere bearing 130.
According to the principle of force decomposition, the fball can be decomposed into a radial constraint force F and a constraint force F oriented toward the second thrust plate 120 and perpendicular to the second thrust plate 120 1 On F being equal to F under 1 In this case, the axial direction of the hydrostatic bearing (i.e., the direction perpendicular to the first thrust plate 110, in the case where the hydrostatic bearing is fitted to the hydrostatic turntable to be fitted to the motor spindle 510, the axial direction of the hydrostatic bearing coincides with the axial direction of the motor spindle 510) is restrained, and the runout of the hydrostatic bearing can be controlled. Since the outer surface of the hemispherical bearing 130 is spherical, the diameters F acting on the hemispherical bearing 130 in opposite directions are mutually oppositeThe radial constraint of the aerostatic bearing (namely, the radial constraint of the aerostatic bearing in the direction parallel to the first thrust plate 110 is realized, and the axial direction of the aerostatic bearing is consistent with the radial direction of the motor mandrel 510 under the condition that the aerostatic bearing is assembled on the aerostatic turntable to be matched with the motor mandrel 510), so that the radial runout of the aerostatic bearing is controlled, and the rotation precision of the aerostatic bearing is ensured.
The radial gas bearing structure in the combination of the radial gas bearing and the thrust gas bearing in the related art is provided with an inner cylindrical surface, the resultant force acting on the radial gas bearing acts on a line, a rotation axis formed by the resultant force acting on the radial gas bearing is formed by fitting a plurality of action points, when the radial gas bearing and the thrust gas bearing are processed, the influence of fitting accuracy of the rotation axis on the installation verticality of an upper thrust plate and a lower thrust plate of the radial gas bearing and the thrust gas bearing is considered, and the influence of each action point of the radial gas bearing on the installation verticality of the upper thrust plate and the lower thrust plate of the radial gas bearing and the thrust gas bearing is considered.
Whereas in the embodiment of the invention the resultant force acting on the hemispherical bearing 130 acts on a single point.

In addition, the radial gas bearing and the thrust gas bearing in the related art have higher requirements on the installation accuracy, but the gas hydrostatic bearing has lower requirements on the installation position accuracy due to the structural characteristics of the self-centering ball in the motion state of the hemispherical bearing 130, and the installation position accuracy of the gas hydrostatic bearing in the invention is 50% of the installation accuracy requirements of the radial gas bearing and the thrust gas bearing.
Of course, the aerostatic turntable in the related art may use a double hemispherical spherical gas bearing, but the axial height (the axial height refers to the height of the bearing along the axial direction of the motor mandrel 510 after the bearing is assembled with the motor mandrel 510) is larger, so that it is difficult to meet the space requirements of the working occasions such as integrated circuit production equipment, checksum measurement equipment, medical equipment, ultra-precise machine tools and the like, regardless of the combination of the double hemispherical spherical gas bearing and the radial gas bearing.
The hydrostatic bearing in the invention achieves the full constraint condition (namely axial constraint and radial constraint, see above) of the hydrostatic bearing through one hemispherical bearing 130, reduces the axial height of the hydrostatic bearing, and can meet the space requirement of working occasions with lower requirements on axial height such as radio equipment, inspection and measurement equipment and medical equipment under the dimensional requirement of the same table surface specification when the hydrostatic bearing is applied to the hydrostatic turntable, wherein the axial height of the hydrostatic turntable in the invention is 65% of the axial height of the hydrostatic turntable by using the combination of the radial bearing and the thrust bearing, and is 40% of the axial height of the hydrostatic turntable by using the double hemispherical spherical bearing.
