[0037] During use, the operator holds the pulling handle 206 of the operating door 205 and pulls it outward along the guide groove 207 to overcome the suction force of the magnetic adsorption strip, and slides the two split operating doors 205 open in the telescopic groove 204 to expose the loading and unloading groove 203. The denture blank or fixture to be processed is installed on the workbench through the loading and unloading groove 203, or the processed workpiece is taken out. After the loading and unloading is completed, the pulling handle 206 is pushed to slide the operating door 205 back to the closed position, and the magnetic adsorption strips on both sides are automatically adsorbed and locked to reseal the internal space of the fixed cover 2; the five-axis linkage is started, and the spindle housing 101 moves in multiple directions according to the processing program. The movable cover 3 can be expanded and contracted and deformed with the movement of the spindle housing 101 due to its flexible accordion pleated structure, and is always Maintaining the connection with the spindle housing 101 (the tightness of the dynamic sealing point is ensured by the through hole and the sealing ring 304), the bottom end of the movable cover 3 is fixed to the top of the fixed cover 2 through the mounting plate 301 and the mounting bolt 302 to form a sealed connection, and the fixed cover 2 is firmly mounted on the machine tool.

Inside the cyclone separator 6, the dust-containing gas enters along the tangential direction and generates high-speed rotation. The dust and heavier debris particles are thrown to the wall of the device under the action of centrifugal force, and fall along the wall into the waste chip collection chamber below (falling through the connection between the discharge end of the cyclone separator 6 and the upper sealing plate 508); the gas that has been preliminarily purified by the cyclone separator 6 (which may still contain fine dust and oil mist) enters the collection box from the outlet end of the cyclone separator 6 through the outlet pipe 604. At the bottom of the filter chamber 5, the gas passes from bottom to top through the primary filter (filter plate 2 505) and the high-efficiency HEPA filter (filter plate 1 504) supported by the limit frame 507. The primary filter intercepts larger particles, while the HEPA filter efficiently captures submicron particles and oil mist. After two stages of filtration, the clean air is discharged through the exhaust pipe 503 at the top of the filter chamber. The solid particle waste separated by the cyclone separator 6 falls directly into the bottom of the waste chip collection chamber. The coolant that splashes during processing and is guided back to the bottom by the inclined wall of the fixed cover 2 may also carry some debris into the waste chip collection chamber or a dedicated coolant recovery channel (the figure does not clearly show the dedicated coolant recovery, but the inclined design facilitates backflow, which is usually required to be combined with a bottom drain port).After shutting down, open lower sealing plate 2 5010 at the bottom of the waste collection chamber to clean out any solid waste accumulated at the chamber bottom and any coolant residue that may have flowed in. Once cleaned, replace lower sealing plate 2 5010. When filtration efficiency decreases, open lower sealing plate 1 509 at the bottom of the filter chamber to access the assembly of filter plate 2 505 (primary filter) and filter plate 1 504 (HEPA filter element) connected by mounting posts 506. The entire assembly can be removed for cleaning (e.g., by tapping the primary filter) or direct replacement (especially of the HEPA filter element). After cleaning or replacement, place the filter assembly back on the retaining bracket 507 and replace lower sealing plate 1 509.
