The invention relates to the technical field of
machine tool equipment, and provides a lathe for chain wheel production. The clamping piece is rotationally arranged on the
machine tool and is used for fixing a chain wheel blank; the sliding base is slidably arranged on the
machine tool and gets close to or away from the clamping piece after sliding. The turning tool base is slidably arranged on the sliding base, and the sliding direction is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the sliding base. The
chip collecting frame is slidably arranged on the sliding seat, the sliding direction of the
chip collecting frame is opposite to that of the turning tool seat, and the
chip collecting frame is provided with a chip collecting cavity; the first rotating wheel and the second rotating wheel are rotationally arranged on the chip collecting frame, a first conveying interval is formed between the first rotating wheel and the second rotating wheel and provided with a first conveying inlet and a first conveying outlet, and the first conveying outlet leads to the chip collecting cavity. By means of the technical scheme, the problems that in the prior art, when an outer circular groove of a mining chain wheel is turned, generated annular cuttings are prone to remaining and can only be manually removed after
machining, cost is increased, precision and the service life of a cutter are affected, and the chain wheel can be possibly damaged are solved.
