[0024] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0025] like Figure 1 The figure shows a specific implementation of the machine tool air control system of the utility model, which is used to control air blowing at different working positions of the machine tool, including machine tool air blowing, spindle air blowing, grating air blowing and B-axis air seal air blowing.
[0026] The machine tool pneumatic control system includes an air source component 10, an air blowing branch 20 and a control valve group 30, wherein the control valve group 30 includes a main circuit 31 located between the air source component 10 and the air blowing branch 20, wherein the main circuit 31 is provided with a first air control valve 34 to control the switch of the air blowing branch 20; a delay circuit 32 located between the air source component 10 and the first air control valve 34, wherein the delay circuit 32 is provided with a second air control valve 35 and a delay valve group 37, wherein the output port of the delay valve group 37 is connected to the air control port of the first air control valve 34; a slow start circuit 33 located between the air source component 10 and the second air control valve 35, wherein the slow start circuit 33 is provided with a slow start valve group 36, wherein the slow start valve group 36 is used to supply air at a low speed when the pressure rises slowly, wherein the output port of the slow start valve group 36 is connected to the air control port of the second air control valve 35.
[0027] When the machine tool is in normal working condition, air passes through the air source assembly 10 and the first air-controlled valve 34 to flow to the blowing branch 20, so that devices such as machine tool blowing, spindle blowing, and grating blowing can be opened; in the delay circuit 32, the gas is first in a conducting state through the second air-controlled valve 35 and supplies gas to the delay valve group 37; after the slow-start valve in the slow-start circuit 33 is slowly opened, the output gas flows to the pilot port of the second air-controlled valve 35, and the second air-controlled valve 35 switches direction so that the second air-controlled valve 35 is closed, and the delay circuit 32 is cut off. When the machine tool is powered off, the slow start valve loses power, the air source flowing to the pilot port of the second air control valve 35 is cut off, the second air control valve 35 switches direction, and the gas flows to the delay valve group 37 through the second air control valve 35. When the delay valve group 37 reaches the set time, the port opens, and the gas flows to the pilot port of the first air control valve 34 through the output port of the delay valve group 37, so that the first air control valve 34 switches direction and is in a disconnected state, thereby realizing the delayed closing of the blowing branch 20 when the machine tool is powered off.
[0028] Among them, in an optional implementation manner, as Figure 2 As shown, the slow start valve group 36 includes a first solenoid valve 361, a third air-controlled valve 362, a fourth air-controlled valve 363 and a first one-way throttle valve 364; the output end of the air source component 10 is connected to the input ports of the first solenoid valve 361 and the third air-controlled valve 362, the output port of the first solenoid valve 361 is connected to the air-controlled port of the third air-controlled valve 362, the fourth air-controlled valve 363 includes a first air-controlled port and a second air-controlled port, the output port of the third air-controlled valve 362 is connected to the first air-controlled port of the fourth air-controlled valve 363, the output port of the third air-controlled valve 362 is connected to the second air-controlled port of the fourth air-controlled valve 363 through the first one-way throttle valve 364, and the output port of the fourth air-controlled valve 363 is connected to the air-controlled port of the second air-controlled valve 35. In one implementation, the slow start valve group 36 is integrated into one body. More specifically, the slow start valve group 36 adopts AV2000, AV3000, AV4000, AV5000 series slow start solenoid valves of SMC.
[0029] Specifically, in an optional implementation manner, Figure 3As shown, the delay valve group 37 includes a second one-way throttle valve 371, a first gas tank 372 and a fifth gas control valve 373 which are connected in sequence. The above valve groups are integrated into one body, and a control knob for setting the delay time is provided on the shell of the delay valve group 37. Among them, the output port of the second gas control valve 35 is connected to the input port of the second one-way throttle valve 371, and the output port of the second gas control valve 35 is also connected to the input port of the fifth gas control valve 373, and the output port of the fifth gas control valve 373 is connected to the gas control port of the first gas control valve 34. The delay time can be set by rotating the setting knob. The delay valve group 37 can delay the arrival time of the air pressure signal according to the combination of variable throttling and the fixed gas volume of the first gas tank 372. More specifically, the delay valve group 37 adopts the VR2110 series delay valve of SMC.
[0030] In order to obtain a wider delay time adjustment, the delay circuit 32 is further provided with a second gas tank 38, which is connected to the pipeline between the first gas tank 372 and the fifth gas control valve 373. The second gas tank 38 is an auxiliary gas volume, so that the capacity of the delay valve group is greater than the capacity of the first gas tank 372. According to the combination of the first gas tank 372 and the second gas tank 38, the arrival time of the air pressure signal can be delayed longer.
[0031] Specifically, in an optional embodiment, the gas source assembly 10 includes a residual pressure release valve 11 and a filter pressure reducing valve 12. The residual pressure release valve 11 is a two-position three-way manual valve, which is used to control the on-off of the entire gas circuit and handle the residual pressure; in the initial state, the residual pressure release valve 11 is in an off state; the filter pressure reducing valve 12 eliminates moisture and dust in the total gas source and is used to control the pressure of the gas source. The gas source assembly 10 is connected to the main circuit 31, the delay circuit 32 and the slow start circuit 33 through the manifold block 40.
[0032] When the machine tool is in working state, the residual pressure release valve 11 is opened, and the air flows to the main circuit 31, the delay circuit 32 and the slow start circuit 33 through the filter pressure reducing valve 12, wherein the first air control valve 34 is in the conducting state, so that the gas flows to each blowing branch 20; the second air control valve 35 in the delay circuit 32 is first in the conducting state, and the first gas tank 372 and the second gas tank 38 are inflated, and the fifth air control valve 373 is in the disconnected state; since the pipeline pressure connected to the pilot port of the fifth air control valve 373 is not enough to open the pilot port, the fifth air control valve 373 remains in the disconnected state; in the slow start circuit 33, the first solenoid valve 361 is in the conducting state, and since the output port of the first solenoid valve 361 is connected to the pilot port of the third air control valve 362, the third air control valve 362 is switched and in the conducting state, and as the output pressure P after the fourth air control valve 363 increases, the pressure P a Increase, when the output pressure Pa ≥Inlet pressure P of slow start valve group 36 c When the time is one-half of the time, the fourth air control valve 363 is turned on, so that the second air control valve 35 is in a closed state to cut off the delay circuit 32, maintain the turned-on state of the first air control valve 34, and realize the normal air supply of the blowing branch 20.
[0033] When the machine tool is powered off, the first solenoid valve 361 in the slow start circuit 33 is in the disconnected state, and the third air-controlled valve 362 is in the disconnected state, so that the second air-controlled valve 35 is in the on state, that is, the delay circuit 32 is turned on. After the second set time, the fifth air-controlled valve 373 is turned on, and the gas reaches the pilot port of the first air-controlled valve 34 through the output port of the fifth air-controlled valve 373, so that the first air-controlled valve 34 switches direction and is in the disconnected state, thereby realizing the delayed closing of the blowing branch 20 after the machine tool is powered off.
[0034] Specifically, in an optional implementation, the air blowing branch 20 includes a machine tool air blowing branch 21, a grating air blowing branch 22, a spindle air blowing branch 23 and a B-axis air seal air blowing branch 24 which are connected in parallel.
[0035] Among them, the machine tool air blowing branch 21, the grating air blowing branch 22, the spindle air blowing branch 23 and the B-axis air seal air blowing branch 24 are respectively provided with a pressure reducing valve 25, the grating air blowing branch 22, the spindle air blowing branch 23 and the B-axis air seal air blowing branch 24 are provided with an oil mist separator 26 and a micro mist separator 27, and the grating air blowing branch 22 is provided with a deodorizing filter 28.
[0036] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
