Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of metal processing, and in particular, to a milling waste collection device. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of metal subtractive processing, cutting tools are required to cut the metal. Existing processing equipment generates waste material that accumulates on the worktable, which is not easy to clean quickly and thus affects the normal processing of the workpiece.

[0003] Those skilled in the art have conducted in-depth research to address this problem. Patent publication number CN112008439B, entitled "A Drilling Device for Quickly Cleaning Metal Plate Processing Debris," discloses a collection device that uses a turntable and scraper to collect falling metal debris into a chip collection box. The turntable drives the scraper to push the metal debris above the chip collection hole, where it falls into the box under gravity. However, this method can only collect small debris. When collecting larger, irregularly shaped metal scrap (such as scrap generated during milling), the large size and irregular shape of the scrap will cause it to accumulate in the channel and prevent it from entering the chip collection box. Therefore, the question arises: how to provide a milling scrap collection device that allows the metal scrap generated during milling to pass through the channel and be collected into the chip collection box? Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a milling waste collection device that allows metal waste generated during the milling process to be collected into a chip collection box through a through groove.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A milling waste collection device includes a milling machine body, which has a workpiece mounting bracket and an upward-facing waste bin. The milling machine body also has a through hole. The workpiece mounting bracket, the through hole, and the waste bin are arranged sequentially from top to bottom. A turntable is located inside the waste bin. The turntable has a sorting groove. A baffle that abuts against the upper surface of the turntable is located on the rotation path of the sorting groove. The device also includes a slider. A sliding groove is provided on the baffle, and the sliding groove is vertically slidably connected to the slider. The slider is connected to a first driving component for driving its reciprocating motion. On the rotation path of the sorting groove, the slider and the baffle are arranged sequentially from front to back. A chip collection box is located on the lower side of the turntable, directly below the slider.

[0007] As the turntable rotates, the first drive assembly drives the slider to move upward. When the sorting trough is directly below the slider, the first drive assembly drives the slider to move downward, and the slider knocks the waste material into the interior of the sorting trough.

[0008] Preferably, the first driving component includes a second driving component for driving the slider to move upward and a spring for driving the slider to move downward, the spring being disposed inside the groove.

[0009] Preferably, the second drive assembly includes a drive base, which is fixedly disposed on the upper end surface of the turntable. The drive base includes a guide portion, and the upper end surface of the guide portion is an inclined surface or an arc surface whose height gradually decreases along the rotation direction of the turntable.

[0010] As the turntable rotates, the slider slides from the upper surface of the turntable onto the guide portion. After the slider rises and separates from the guide portion, the sorting trough is located directly below the slider, and the spring drives the slider to smash the waste material into the interior of the sorting trough.

[0011] Preferably, the drive seat further includes a pressing part, the upper end surface of which is flat and flush with the end of the guide part.

[0012] Preferably, the crushing chamber is provided with a cylinder inside, the upper end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the workpiece mounting frame, and the lower end of the cylinder is rotatably connected to the turntable.

[0013] Preferably, the sorting slots are arranged in a ring array of multiple slots.

[0014] Preferably, both the outer ring of the cylinder and the outer ring of the turntable are provided with drive seats for pressing against the lower end face of the slider.

[0015] Preferably, multiple drive seats are arranged in a circular array on the turntable.

[0016] Preferably, the chip collection box is detachably connected to the through hole.

[0017] Preferably, the turntable divides the internal space of the waste bin into a chip collection chamber and a crushing chamber. A push plate is fixedly provided on the lower end face of the turntable, and a cutting blade is fixedly provided on the bottom wall of the crushing chamber. A blade groove is provided on the push plate for the cutting blade to pass through. A chip collection hole is provided on the waste bin, and the chip collection hole is located between the slider and the chip collection box.

[0018] Preferably, the milling machine body is provided with a drive wheel, which meshes with the turntable.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:

[0020] In use, the workpiece on the workpiece mounting rack is milled to generate waste material, which falls into the inside of the waste bin. During the rotation of the turntable, the waste material is moved. The first drive component drives the slider to move back and forth in the vertical direction. The waste material accumulates on the lower side of the slider. Due to the vertical reciprocating motion of the slider, the slider and the turntable work together to press the waste material. When the sorting trough rotates to directly below the slider, the waste material is pushed by the slider through the sorting trough into the inside of the chip collection box.

[0021] Through the above structural design, the present invention can collect small-volume waste materials generated during milling into the interior of the chip collection box, and compress larger-volume waste materials generated during milling to reduce the space occupied by the waste materials, and collect the compressed waste materials into the interior of the chip collection box.

[0030] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the technical solution of the present invention can be more easily understood and mastered.

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] like Figures 3 to 4As shown, this embodiment provides a milling waste collection device, including a milling machine body 10. The milling machine body 10 is provided with a workpiece mounting bracket 11 and a waste bin 20 with an upward-facing opening. The milling machine body 10 is also provided with a through hole 12. The workpiece mounting bracket 11, the through hole 12 and the waste bin 20 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom. A turntable 30 is provided inside the waste bin 20. The milling machine body 10 is provided with a drive wheel 13, which meshes with the turntable 30. Specifically, both the drive wheel 13 and the turntable 30 are made of gears.

[0033] The turntable 30 has a sorting groove 31, and a baffle 50 is provided on the rotation path of the sorting groove 31 to abut against the upper end surface of the turntable 30. It also includes a slider 52. The baffle 50 has a sliding groove 51, which is vertically slidably connected to the slider 52. The slider 52 is connected to a first drive assembly for driving its reciprocating motion.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first driving assembly includes a second driving assembly for driving the slider 52 to move upward and a spring 53 for driving the slider 52 to move downward. The spring 53 is disposed inside the slide groove 51. The second driving assembly includes a driving seat 40, which is fixedly disposed on the upper end surface of the turntable 30. The driving seat 40 includes a guide portion 41, and the upper end surface of the guide portion 41 is an inclined surface whose height gradually decreases along the rotation direction of the turntable 30.

[0035] As the turntable 30 rotates, the slider 52 slides from the upper surface of the turntable 30 onto the guide portion 41. After the slider 52 rises and separates from the guide portion 41, the sorting groove 31 is located directly below the slider 52. The spring 53 drives the slider 52 to smash the waste material into the interior of the sorting groove 31.

[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the drive seat 40 also includes a pressing part 42, the upper end surface of which is flat and flush with the end of the guide part 41; the setting of the pressing part 42 facilitates more waste material to enter directly below the slider 52 during the rotation of the turntable 30.

[0037] On the rotation path of the sorting trough 31, the slider 52 and the baffle 50 are arranged sequentially from front to back. The turntable 30 is provided with a chip collection box 25 on its lower side, and the chip collection box 25 is located directly below the slider 52.

[0038] In use: The turntable 30 drives the drive seat 40 to rotate. During the rotation of the drive seat 40, the slider 52 slides from the upper end face of the turntable 30 to the guide part 41. The slider 52 rises until it slides onto the pressing part 42. The slider 52 stops rising. The turntable 30 carries the waste material and moves it to directly below the slider 52 under the blocking action of the baffle 50 until the slider 52 separates from the pressing part 42. At this time, the sorting groove 31 is located directly below the slider 52. The spring 53 drives the slider 52 to smash the waste material into the interior of the sorting groove 31.

[0039] Furthermore, in combination Figure 5 As shown, the crushing chamber 22 is provided with a cylinder 23 inside. The outer ring of the cylinder 23 and the outer ring of the turntable 30 are both provided with drive seats 40 for pressing against the lower end face of the slider 52. The cylinder 23 is used to push the waste material between the two drive seats 40 on both sides of the slider 52. Specifically, the cylinder 23 is a cone with a diameter that gradually increases from top to bottom. The upper end of the cylinder 23 is fixedly connected to the workpiece mounting bracket 11, and the lower end of the cylinder 23 is rotatably connected to the turntable 30.

[0040] Furthermore, combining Figure 5 As shown, the sorting slots 31 are arranged in a ring array, and the drive seats 40 are arranged in a ring array on the turntable 30, so as to improve the waste collection efficiency.

[0041] Furthermore, combining Figure 4 As shown, the chip collection box 25 is detachably connected to the through hole 12, which facilitates the removal of waste materials for subsequent waste collection.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 lies in the arrangement of the push plate 32 and the cutting blade 34.

[0044] Combination Figure 6 As shown, in order to save space and collect more waste, the turntable 30 divides the internal space of the waste bin 20 into a chip collection chamber 21 and a crushing chamber 22. A push plate 32 is fixedly provided on the lower end face of the turntable 30. A cutting blade 34 is fixedly provided on the bottom wall of the crushing chamber 22. A blade groove 33 is provided on the push plate 32 for the cutting blade 34 to pass through. A chip collection hole 24 is provided on the waste bin 20. The chip collection hole 24 is located between the slider 52 and the chip collection box 25.

[0045] Specifically, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, both the cutting blade 34 and the blade groove 33 are arc-shaped, and three cutting blades 34 and three blade grooves 33 are arranged linearly along the radial direction of the turntable 30.

[0046] Furthermore, the two opposing inner walls of the blade groove 33 are provided with rubber layers that abut against each other.

[0047] In use: During the rotation of the turntable 30, the turntable 30 drives the push plate 32 to rotate. When the cutting blade 34 passes through the blade groove 33, the cutting blade 34 cuts the waste between the push plate 32 and the cutting blade 34. After the waste is cut off, the push plate 32 pushes the waste in the crushing chamber 22 into the upper part of the chip collection hole 24. The waste falls into the interior of the chip collection box 25. The rubber layer on the inner wall of the blade groove 33 pushes the metal powder through the chip collection hole 24 into the interior of the chip collection box 25.

[0048] The above are just typical examples of the present invention. In addition, the present invention may have many other specific embodiments. All technical solutions formed by equivalent substitution or equivalent transformation fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
