Problems solved by technology

In addition, in recent years, the number of machine tools using water-soluble cutting fluid has increased, and the possibility of the misty cutting fluid adhering to parts far from the processing point has increased.
For example, when foreign matter adheres to the blades of the fan or the flow path of the cooling fluid is blocked by foreign matter, sometimes the desired cooling effect cannot be achieved
In the past, in order to clean various cooling components used in machine tools, it was necessary to remove the fan cover or the housing of the motor to clean the inside, which took a lot of labor in the cleaning process.

Abstract

A machine tool is disclosed in the invention and includes a cooling fluid supplying part, e.g., a fan or a flow path, for supplying a cooling fluid which dissipates heat generated from the machine tool during operation. The cooling fluid supplying part is operable to supply the cooling fluid independently of a cooling action of a machining point of the machine tool. The machine tool also includes a cleaning part for cleaning the cooling fluid supplying part. The cooling fluid supplying part may be a fan or a flow path of the cooling fluid. Accordingly, the cooling effect for cooling the machine tool can be prevented from being decreased due to the foreign objects attached to the cooling fluid supplying part; the machine tool can be prevented from being damaged due to excessive heat, and the operation efficiency can be prevented from being decreased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a machine tool with cleaning elements. Background technique [0002] Among machine tools, there is known a machine tool having a cleaning member for cleaning chips and the like adhering to a spindle or a workpiece during machining. In addition, there is known a machine tool configured to execute a cleaning program stored in a control device.
