DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0028] See also Figure 1-6 , the utility model provides a technical solution:
[0029] Embodiment 1:
[0030] A vertical machining center protection device comprises a vertical machining center 1 and a base 2, wherein the base 2 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the vertical machining center 1, and a protection mechanism is arranged on one side of the base 2, which can protect the debris splashed when the vertical machining center 1 is working;
[0031] The protection mechanism includes a fixing plate 3 fixedly connected to both sides of the base 2, a hydraulic cylinder 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing plate 3, a protection cover 5 is provided on the top of the base 2, an observation window 6 is fixedly installed on one side of the protection cover 5, the bottom of the protection cover 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4, and a cleaning mechanism is provided on one side of the observation window 6, which can play a role in cleaning the splashed debris;
[0032] In this embodiment, by providing a protective mechanism, when the user uses the vertical machining center 1 to process the workpiece, the hydraulic cylinder 4 is started, and the protective cover 5 and the observation window 6 are driven to move upward along the trajectory of the base 2 by the hydraulic cylinder 4 moving upward, until the protective cover 5 covers the workbench, and the hydraulic cylinder 4 can be closed. At this time, the debris splashed by the workpiece during processing will be blocked in the protective cover 5. At this time, the user can observe the progress of the workpiece processing through the observation window 6, which effectively avoids the phenomenon that the debris splashed during processing causes damage to the user's body;
[0033] When the processing is finished and the protective cover 5 needs to be withdrawn, the user only needs to follow the above reverse operation;
[0034] The invention solves the problem that when the vertical machining center 1 is machining a workpiece, a large amount of fine waste chips will splash out from the workbench. Most of the existing vertical machining centers 1 do not have the function of protecting the splashed chips, so the chips may splash on the nearby users and cause damage to the users' bodies.
[0035] Embodiment 2:
[0036] On the basis of the first embodiment, the protective mechanism in the first embodiment can play a role in protecting the debris splashed when the vertical machining center 1 is working, but this mechanism does not have the function of cleaning the observation window 6 in the protective cover 5. In the process of the vertical mechanism center working, it is inevitable that some splashed debris will splash on the observation window 6 through the protective cover 5. If it is not cleaned in time, it will hinder the user's observation line of sight, thereby causing inconvenience to the user. The cleaning mechanism in this application includes a motor 7 fixedly installed on one side of the observation window 6, and the output end of the motor 7 is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 8. One end of the rotating rod 8 passes through the inside of the observation window 6 and is fixedly connected to a threaded rod 9. The surface of the threaded rod 9 is transmission-connected to a moving block 10, and the top of the moving block 10 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 11. A wiping block 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 11. A square groove 13 is provided on one side of the observation window 6.
[0037] In this embodiment, by setting a cleaning mechanism, the user can start the motor 7 in the cleaning mechanism while using the protection mechanism, and the motor 7 rotates to drive the rotating rod 8 and the threaded rod 9 to rotate around the bearing 18, and the external thread on the surface of the threaded rod 9 squeezes the internal thread inside the threaded hole 17, so that the moving block 10 drives the connecting plate 11, the wiping plate and then the limiting block 19 to move along the trajectory of the limiting groove 20, so as to play a role in cleaning the debris on the surface of the observation window 6. When the connecting plate 11 moves, it will drive the connecting block 14 and the cleaning shovel 15 to clean the wiped debris into the collection box 16 through the square groove, thereby further improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning mechanism;
[0038] The problem that the protective mechanism does not have the function of cleaning the observation window 6 in the protective cover 5 is solved. During the operation of the vertical mechanism center, it is inevitable that some flying debris will splash onto the observation window 6 through the protective cover 5. If it is not cleaned in time, it will hinder the user's observation line of sight, thereby causing inconvenience to the user.
[0039] A connection block 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the connection plate 11, a cleaning shovel 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the connection block 14, and a collection box 16 used in conjunction with the cleaning shovel 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the observation window 6;
[0040] By providing the connecting block 14, the cleaning shovel 15 and the collecting box 16, the connecting block 14 and the cleaning shovel 15 can be driven to clean the wiped debris into the collecting box 16 through the square groove while the connecting plate 11 moves, thereby further improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning mechanism.
[0041] A threaded hole 17 is provided on one side of the moving block 10, and the threaded rod 9 cooperates with the threaded hole 17;
[0042] By setting the threaded hole 17, the internal thread inside the threaded hole 17 can be squeezed by the external thread on the surface of the threaded rod 9, so that the moving block 10 drives the connecting plate 11 and the wiping plate to move back and forth along the trajectory of the observation window 6 to wipe off the debris on the observation window 6.
[0043] A bearing 18 is provided at one end of the threaded rod 9, and one end of the threaded rod 9 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the observation window 6 through the bearing 18;
[0044] By providing the bearing 18 , the threaded rod 9 can rotate around the bearing 18 when it rotates, thereby limiting the rotation trajectory of the threaded rod 9 .
[0045] The wiping block 12 is made of sponge and fits tightly against the inner wall of the observation window 6;
[0046] By setting the wiping block 12 to be made of sponge and closely fitting with the inner wall of the observation window 6 , the friction between the wiping block 12 and the observation window 6 can be increased, so that the wiping can be done more cleanly.
[0047] The top of the moving block 10 is fixedly connected to the limiting block 19, and the inner wall of the observation window 6 is provided with a limiting groove 20 used in conjunction with the limiting block 19;
[0048] By providing the limiting block 19 and the limiting groove 20 , when the moving block 10 moves, the connecting plate 11 and the limiting block 19 can be driven to move along the track of the limiting groove 20 , thereby limiting the moving track of the moving block 10 .
[0049] Working principle: When the user uses the vertical machining center 1 to process the workpiece, the hydraulic cylinder 4 is started, and the protective cover 5 and the observation window 6 are driven to move upward along the track of the base 2 by the upward movement of the hydraulic cylinder 4, until the protective cover 5 covers the workbench, and the hydraulic cylinder 4 can be closed. At this time, the debris splashed by the workpiece processing will be blocked in the protective cover 5. At this time, the user can observe the progress of the workpiece processing through the observation window 6, which effectively avoids the phenomenon that the debris splashed during processing causes damage to the user's body;
[0050] When the user uses the protection mechanism, by starting the motor 7 in the cleaning mechanism, the motor 7 rotates to drive the rotating rod 8 and the threaded rod 9 to rotate around the bearing 18, and the external thread on the surface of the threaded rod 9 squeezes the internal thread inside the threaded hole 17, so that the moving block 10 drives the connecting plate 11, the wiping plate and then the limit block 19 to move along the trajectory of the limit groove 20, thereby playing a role in cleaning the debris on the surface of the observation window 6. When the connecting plate 11 moves, it will drive the connecting block 14 and the cleaning shovel 15 to clean the wiped debris into the collection box 16 through the square groove, thereby further improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning mechanism.
[0051] It should be noted that the vertical machining center 1, the motor 7 and the hydraulic cylinder 4 are devices or equipment existing in the prior art, or are devices or equipment that can be realized in the prior art. The specific composition and principle of the power supply of the vertical machining center 1, the motor 7 and the hydraulic cylinder 4 are clear to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail.
[0052] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
