Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of mechanical processing equipment, and in particular to a processing lathe which is easy to clean. Background Art
[0002] In the current development of the manufacturing industry, lathes, as a type of machine tool equipment, are mainly used to perform operations such as cutting, grinding, knurling, etc. on workpieces of various shapes and sizes to achieve the desired shape. Since lathes can be used to process workpieces of different materials such as wood, metal, glass, etc., lathes play a very important role in the field of mechanical manufacturing.
[0003] A lathe usually consists of a spindle box, a feed box, a slide rail, a lead screw and a guide bar, a slide box, a tool holder, a cooling device, a bed and other parts. The spindle box drives the workpiece clamped on the chuck to rotate, and the power of the feed box is transmitted to the lead screw and the guide bar, which drives the slide box to move, thereby enabling the tool holder on the slide box to move along the slide rail, and the workpiece clamped by the spindle box is cut by the cutter on the tool holder. A large amount of debris will be generated when cutting, grinding, drilling and other operations are performed on the lathe, and the debris will splash due to the high-speed rotation of the workpiece.
[0004] With regard to the above-mentioned related technologies, when the flying debris falls on the guide screw and the slide rail of the slide box, it may cause wear to the corresponding components when the related components move to increase the equipment error. In order to extend the service life of the lathe as much as possible, the operator often needs to stop the lathe for cleaning, and use air guns, brushes and other tools to clean the debris into the waste tray below. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to reduce the number of shutdowns for cleaning and simplify the operator's operation for cleaning the lathe, the present application provides a processing lathe that is easy to clean.
[0006] The present application provides a processing lathe that is easy to clean, using the following technical solution:
[0007] A processing lathe that is easy to clean comprises a frame, the frame is provided with a slide rail, the slide rail is provided with a tool holder, the slide rail is provided with a slider for connecting the tool holder, cleaning blocks are provided at both ends of the slider, a compressed air circuit is provided in the cleaning block, an air outlet is provided on a side of the cleaning block away from the tool holder, the air outlet points to the slide rail, the frame is provided with a compressed air source connected to the compressed air circuit, a slope is provided on a side of the cleaning block away from the tool holder, and the lower end of the slope abuts against the slide rail.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when the tool holder moves, the cleaning block moves with the movement of the slider, and the compressed air source will pass through the compressed air path in the cleaning block and blow toward the slide rail to remove the debris and residue on the slide rail. As the cleaning block moves, the inclined surface on the cleaning block will scrape the sticky impurities, thereby achieving cleaning during the use of the lathe, effectively simplifying the operator's difficulty in cleaning the lathe.
[0009] Optionally, an oil storage tank is provided inside a side of the cleaning block close to the tool holder, an oil filling hole connected to the oil storage tank is provided on the upper side of the cleaning block, and an oil outlet hole is provided on the lower end surface of the oil storage tank.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the cleaning block slides and cleans the slide rail, the lubricating oil in the oil storage tank seeps out through the oil outlet hole and falls on the slide rail. As the cleaning block slides, the lubricating oil in the oil storage tank will cover the entire slide rail, effectively achieving lubrication after cleaning the impurities in the slide rail.
[0011] Optionally, an oil brush is provided on one side of the cleaning block close to the slide rail, and the oil brush is located directly below the oil outlet hole.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the lubricating oil seeps out from the oil outlet, the lubricating oil is evenly applied to the slide rail by using an oil brush and the oil outlet hole is blocked at the same time, thereby effectively making the lubricating oil on the slide rail evenly distributed and reducing the waste caused by the outflow of lubricating oil.
[0013] Optionally, a vertical protrusion is provided on one side of the cleaning block close to the slider, the slider is provided with a groove matched with the protrusion, and a locking assembly for fixing the cleaning block to the slider is provided on one side of the slider.

[0015] Optionally, a dust suction disc is provided on one side of the tool holder close to the spindle box, the dust suction disc is located below the tool holder, the dust suction disc points to the tool holder, and the frame is provided with a dust collector connected to a supporting hose.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the lathe is operating normally, the dust suction disc and the tool holder move simultaneously. During the processing of the workpiece, the dust suction disc and the dust suction disc are used to absorb and collect the debris generated during the cutting process, thereby effectively reducing the splashing of the debris.

As the cleaning bushing moves, impurities splashed onto the lead screw are scraped off by the cleaning bushing, effectively completing the cleaning of the lead screw while the slide box moves.
[0019] Optionally, the cleaning bushing is made of soft material.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, compared with hard materials, soft materials can reduce damage to the lead screw due to excessive accumulation of impurities when cleaning the lead screw, effectively protect the lead screw, and thus extend its service life.
[0021] Optionally, a first baffle is provided on the side of the frame away from the lead screw, a second baffle is hinged on the upper end of the first baffle, the second baffle is made of transparent material, and when in a natural state, one end of the second baffle away from the first baffle abuts against the frame.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the second baffle rotates along the hinge with the first baffle. When in normal use, the second baffle and the first baffle together isolate the location where debris is generated. When the workpiece needs to be placed inside the lathe, the second baffle is lifted along the hinge between the first baffle and the second baffle, effectively preventing debris from splashing without affecting the operation.
[0023] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0024] 1. When the tool holder moves, the cleaning block moves with the movement of the slider. The compressed air source will pass through the compressed air path in the cleaning block and blow to the slide rail to remove the debris and residue on the slide rail. As the cleaning block moves, the inclined surface on the cleaning block will scrape the sticky impurities, so that cleaning can be achieved during the use of the lathe, effectively simplifying the operator's difficulty in cleaning the lathe;
[0025] 2. When the cleaning block slides and cleans the slide rail, the lubricating oil in the oil reservoir seeps out through the oil outlet and falls on the slide rail. As the cleaning block slides, the lubricating oil in the oil reservoir will cover the entire slide rail, effectively achieving lubrication after cleaning the impurities in the slide rail.

[0031] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with all the accompanying drawings.
[0032] The embodiment of the present application discloses a processing lathe that is easy to clean.
[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 4 A processing lathe that is easy to clean includes a frame 1, the frame 1 is provided with a slide rail 11, the slide rail 11 is provided with a tool holder 12, the slide rail 11 is provided with a slider for connecting the tool holder 12, cleaning blocks 2 are provided at both ends of the slider, a compressed air circuit is provided in the cleaning block 2, a side of the cleaning block 2 away from the tool holder 12 is provided with an air outlet 21, the air outlet 21 points to the slide rail 11, the frame 1 is provided with a compressed air source connected to the compressed air circuit, a side of the cleaning block 2 away from the tool holder 12 is provided with an inclined surface 22, and the lower end of the inclined surface 22 abuts against the slide rail 11. When the tool holder 12 moves, the cleaning block 2 moves with the movement of the slider, and the compressed air source will pass through the compressed air circuit in the cleaning block 2 and blow to the slide rail 11 to remove the debris and residue on the slide rail 11. As the cleaning block 2 moves, the inclined surface 22 on the cleaning block 2 will scrape the impurities with greater viscosity, so that cleaning is achieved during the use of the lathe, effectively simplifying the operator's difficulty in cleaning the lathe.
[0034] After cleaning the surface of the slide rail 11, the slide rail 11 needs to be oiled and maintained to reduce the rust of the slide rail 11. An oil storage tank 23 is provided inside the cleaning block 2 on the side close to the tool holder 12, an oil filling hole 231 connected to the oil storage tank 23 is provided on the upper side of the cleaning block 2, and an oil outlet hole 232 is provided on the lower end surface of the oil storage tank 23. When the cleaning block 2 slides and cleans the slide rail 11, the lubricating oil in the oil storage tank 23 seeps out through the oil outlet hole 232 and falls on the slide rail 11. As the cleaning block 2 slides, the lubricating oil in the oil storage tank 23 will cover the entire slide rail 11, effectively achieving lubrication of the slide rail 11 after cleaning the impurities.
[0035] In order to evenly spread the lubricating oil on the slide rail 11 and control the amount of lubricating oil, a cleaning block 2 is provided with an oil brush 24 on the side close to the slide rail 11, and the oil brush 24 is located directly below the oil outlet 232. When the lubricating oil seeps out from the oil outlet, the lubricating oil is evenly spread on the slide rail 11 through the oil brush 24, and the oil outlet 232 is blocked at the same time, so that the lubricating oil on the slide rail 11 is effectively evenly spread and the waste caused by the outflow of lubricating oil is reduced.
[0036] After long-term use, since relatively firm debris may be attached to the slide rail 11, the lower part of the inclined surface 22 of the cleaning block 2 will be greatly worn, thereby affecting the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning block 2. A vertical protrusion is provided on the side of the cleaning block 2 close to the slider, and the slider is provided with a groove 25 adapted to the protrusion, and a locking assembly 26 for fixing the cleaning block 2 to the slider is provided on one side of the slider. In this embodiment, a latch is used as the locking assembly 26, and the locking and fixing of the cleaning block 2 are completed by the latch. When the cleaning block 2 is damaged or replaced regularly, the operator opens the locking device to separate the cleaning block 2 from the slider and pull out the cleaning block 2, replaces the oil brush 24 or replaces the damaged cleaning block 2 as a whole, which effectively facilitates the operator to replace and adjust the cleaning block 2.
[0037] When the lathe is working, some debris will fall down. In order to collect the debris and prevent it from falling to the frame 1 below, a dust suction disc 15 is provided on the side of the tool holder 12 close to the spindle box. The dust suction disc 15 is located below the tool holder 12 and points to the tool holder 12. The frame 1 is provided with a vacuum cleaner connected to a supporting hose. When the lathe is operating normally, the vacuum cleaner 15 and the tool holder 12 move simultaneously. During the processing of the workpiece, the vacuum cleaner and the dust suction disc 15 are used to absorb and collect the debris generated during the cutting process, effectively reducing the splashing of the debris.
[0038] When the debris falls onto the lead screw 16, the slide box 13 will pass through the lead screw 16, which will affect the fit between the lead screw 16 and the slide box 13, and may cause damage to the vehicle. The frame 1 also includes a feed box and a slide box 13, between which a lead screw 16 is provided, and the lead screw 16 is sleeved with a cleaning bushing 3, which is located on both sides of the slide box 13, and a filling portion 31 adapted to the lead screw 16 is provided on the side of the cleaning bushing 3 close to the lead screw 16. When the slide box 13 moves along the lead screw 16, the cleaning bushing 3 moves with the slide box 13, and as the cleaning bushing 3 moves, the impurities splashed onto the lead screw 16 are scraped off by the cleaning bushing 3, and the lead screw 16 is effectively cleaned while the slide box 13 moves.
[0039] In order to further reduce the friction between the cleaning bushing 3 and the lead screw 16 and extend the service life, the cleaning bushing 3 is made of soft material. Compared with hard materials, soft materials can reduce the damage to the lead screw 16 caused by excessive accumulation of impurities when cleaning the lead screw 16, effectively protect the lead screw 16, and thus extend the service life.
[0040] In order to block the debris and prevent it from flying out of the lathe, a first baffle 14 is provided on the side of the frame 1 away from the lead screw 16. A second baffle 141 is hinged on the upper end of the first baffle 14. The second baffle 141 is made of transparent material. When in a natural state, the end of the second baffle 141 away from the first baffle 14 abuts against the frame 1. The second baffle 141 rotates along the hinge with the first baffle 14. When in normal use, the second baffle 141 and the first baffle 14 together isolate the location where the debris is generated. When the workpiece needs to be placed in the lathe, the second baffle 141 is opened along the hinge between the first baffle 14 and the second baffle 141 to prevent the debris from flying without affecting the operation.
[0041] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
