[0002] A CNC machine tool is an automated machine tool equipped with a program control system. It can move the machine and process parts according to a pre-programmed program. Generally, a tool (or other tool) is used to process parts mounted on a fixture. The tool of a CNC machine tool will be damaged after long-term use. During actual processing and production, the surface damage of the tool needs to be detected. When detecting the damage of the milling cutter, existing CNC milling machines often use multiple CCD camera visual detectors fixedly installed inside the CNC milling machine to take pictures of the milling cutter, and the surface damage of the tool is compared and detected by built-in software uploaded to an external display. This method usually requires that the machine tool tool stop working before shooting and testing can be performed, and CNC machine tools usually perform the entire process according to a pre-programmed program. If the tool is severely damaged during processing, the CCD camera visual detector cannot detect it, so the tool cannot be replaced in time, resulting in unqualified processed products.

[0029] The transmission assembly 2 includes a plurality of fixed rods 21, a driving member 22, a driving wheel 23, a plurality of driven wheels 24, and a belt loop 25; one end of the fixed rod 21 is connected to the assembly frame 1, and the driving member 22 is provided on one of the fixed rods 21 for driving the driving wheel 23 connected to the other end of the fixed rod 21; the other ends of the other fixed rods 21 are connected to the driven wheels 24; the belt loop 25 is sleeved on the driving wheel 23 and the driven wheels 24;
[0030] The detection assembly 3 includes a box body 31 , and a laser temperature detector 32 and a CCD camera visual detector 33 placed on both sides of the box body 31 ; the box body 31 is connected to the driving wheel 23 and / or the driven wheel 24 via a connecting rod 34 .
[0031] Specifically, in this embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it includes two detection components 3, one of which is connected to the bottom of the driving wheel 23 through a connecting rod 34, and the other is connected to the bottom of one of the driven wheels 24 through a connecting rod 34; the driving member 22 is a small adjusting motor 221, which drives the driving wheel 23 to rotate when it rotates, thereby driving the detection component 3 to rotate, and at the same time drives the driven wheel 24 to rotate through the transmission of the belt ring 25, thereby synchronously driving the other detection component 3 to rotate; the laser temperature detector 32 and the CCD camera visual detector 33 in the two detection components 3 are switched to realize the switching of the laser temperature detector 32 or the CCD camera visual detector 33 so that the laser temperature detector 32 or the CCD camera visual detector 33 is aligned with the tool.
[0032] Two chambers are formed in the box body 31, which are respectively used to install the laser temperature detector 32 and the CCD camera visual detector 33; hardened thermal conductive silicone 36 glue and heat dissipation fins 35 are provided in the chamber, and the heat dissipation fins 35 are in contact with the wall surface of the laser temperature detector 32 and the wall surface of the CCD camera visual detector 33; a thin welding plate 37 is provided on the outside of the chamber for installing the CCD camera visual detector 33, which is used to fix the CCD camera visual detector 33; a cavity cover 38 is provided on the outside of the thin welding plate 37; the thermal conductive silicone 36 glue and the heat dissipation fins 35 are used to dissipate heat for the packaged electronic components of the CCD camera visual detector 33 and the laser temperature detector 32 arranged in the chamber.
[0033] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, it also includes an air supply ring assembly 4, which is connected to the assembly frame 1 through a welding ring 5; the detection device is connected to the air supply ring assembly 4; the air supply ring assembly 4 is used to connect to an external air source and blow air to the tool. The air supply ring assembly 4 includes a ring body 41, a ring box 42 connected to the inner wall of the ring body 41, and an air guide ring box 43 connected to the inner side of the ring box 42; the ring body 41 is provided with a connecting hole for connecting to an external air source; the ring box 42 is connected to the air guide ring box 43; a filter element 44 is provided in the ring box 42; a plurality of interlocking circular blocks 45 are provided on the inner side of the air guide ring box 43, and air holes are provided on the interlocking circular blocks 45; a cotton core 46 is provided in the air hole; the inner side surface of the air guide ring box 43 is set at 60-68 degrees; the filter element 44 is used to filter particulate matter in the gas to avoid collision with the tool; the cotton core 46 is used to blow the gas out evenly.
[0034] In the initial state of the detection component 3 or when the machine tool is working, the laser temperature detector 32 is aligned with the tool. Since the surface of the milling cutter is usually plated with a carbide layer, when the surface of the milling cutter is damaged or worn, the carbide layer and the internal metal layer of the milling cutter are made of different materials, and the temperature difference on the surface of the milling cutter is large. When the milling cutter is processing the workpiece normally, the surface temperature of the milling cutter is detected by the laser temperature detector 32 and transmitted to the external display screen. The air supply ring component 4 discharges pressurized air to the surface of the milling cutter through an external air source to cool the milling cutter and increase the service life of the milling cutter. At the same time, it can blow away the debris and impurities adhering to the surface of the milling cutter to avoid Debris and impurities interfere with the temperature detection of the milling cutter by the laser temperature detector 32; when the surface of the milling cutter is damaged and the laser temperature detector 32 detects a large temperature difference, the operation of the machine tool is automatically suspended, and at the same time the small adjustment motor 221 rotates, and the two detection components 3 are rotated synchronously through the transmission of the driving wheel 23, the belt ring 25 and the driven wheel 24, so that the CCD camera visual detector 33 is aligned with the milling cutter and an image is taken. The surface damage of the tool is compared and detected by the built-in software uploaded to the external display, so that the milling cutter can be replaced in time to avoid defective molded products due to failure to replace the milling cutter in time.

A second threaded hole 62 is disposed on the outer side of the shaft disk 6, which is opposite to the first threaded hole 15; the assembly stand 1 can be quickly fixed by directly inserting the arc piece 14 into and out of the arc groove 61 and connecting the first threaded hole 15 and the second threaded hole 62 via the locking stud 16. This method is convenient and quick.

When the milling cutter is processing the workpiece normally, the surface temperature of the milling cutter is detected by the laser temperature detector 32 and transmitted to the external display to monitor the damage of the milling cutter; when the temperature difference on the surface of the milling cutter is large, the operation of the machine tool is automatically suspended, and the image of the milling cutter is photographed by the CCD camera visual detector 33. The surface damage of the tool is compared and detected by the built-in software uploaded to the external display, so that the milling cutter can be replaced when it is damaged, avoiding defective molded products due to timely replacement of the milling cutter.
[0038] 2. The laser temperature detector 32 and the CCD camera visual detector 33 can be switched by the setting of the transmission component 2, so that when the machine tool is operating, the laser temperature detector 32 is aligned with the tool, while the CCD camera visual detector 33 is facing away from the tool, to prevent chips from being damaged or adhering to the lens of the CCD camera visual detector 33.
[0039] 3. The installation of the assembly frame 1 allows the entire detection device to be more conveniently and detachably connected to the milling cutter assembly main body shaft disc 6.
