Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical processing, in particular to a workpiece cleaning device for a gantry processing center. Background Art

[0002] A gantry machining center refers to a machining center in which the spindle axis is set perpendicular to the worktable. The overall structure is a portal frame composed of double columns and a top beam, with a crossbeam in the middle. It is particularly suitable for processing large workpieces and workpieces with complex shapes. There are fixed-beam type with a fixed crossbeam and movable / rotating worktable, movable-beam type with a crossbeam that moves up and down, and the worktable moves forward and backward, movable-column type with a fixed worktable and a movable gantry, and overhead crane type with a fixed worktable and movable crossbeam. There are also many types of gantry machining centers with the above combined forms, and their processing characteristics, capabilities, and targeted product processing uses are not exactly the same.

[0003] After searching, a Chinese patent discloses a workpiece cleaning device for a gantry machining center (authorization announcement number: CN214078224 U), including a machining center, a table, a collecting mechanism, a cleaning mechanism, a fixed block, an air inlet pipe, a nozzle, a leather plug, a compression spring and a leather ring. The beneficial effect of the utility model is that the gas is stored in the fixed block through the air inlet pipe. When the air pressure reaches a certain value, the gas pushes the leather plug to slide under the action of the compression spring, which is conducive to the gas entering the interior of the nozzle and spraying out from the bottom of one end of the nozzle. Under the action of the leather ring, it plays a sealing role so that the gas will not overflow. During processing, through the movement of the machining center, it is conducive to the nozzle to perform jet dust removal on the processed surface, making the workpiece surface cleaner. The threaded connection between the nozzle and the fixed block is conducive to subsequent replacement. At the same time, the processed debris will enter the collection mechanism for storage, and facilitate subsequent cleaning, reducing the physical consumption of manual cleaning.

[0004] In actual application, this patented technology can clean the workpiece and facilitate the collection of debris. However, during use, the above-mentioned solution will lift the debris on the workpiece under the action of the nozzle, which is difficult to blow into the collection box. The debris will be lifted up by the nozzle and fall on various parts of the equipment, thereby reducing the practicality of the device. At the same time, when the staff is near the equipment, the lifted debris will fall on the staff and even enter the staff's eyes or respiratory tract, affecting the staff's health. The lifted debris will also pollute the working environment. Utility Model Content

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.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-6, the utility model provides an embodiment: a workpiece cleaning device for a gantry machining center, comprising a collection box 1, a gantry 2 is arranged above the collection box 1, a moving mechanism 3 is arranged on the gantry 2, a processing mechanism 4 is arranged below the moving mechanism 3, the moving mechanism 3 is used to drive the processing mechanism 4 to move on the gantry 2, a support frame 5 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the interior of the collection box 1, a placement plate 6 is slidably connected to the support frame 5, the support frame 5 is used to support the placement plate 6, the placement plate 6 is used to place workpieces, a plurality of slide grooves 7 are opened on the placement plate 6, the placement plate 6 is connected to the interior of the collection box 1 through the slide groove 7, a cleaning mechanism 8 is arranged on one side of the gantry 2, a threaded rod 9 is arranged inside the collection box 1, a scraper 10 is sleeved on the threaded rod 9, the scraper 10 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 9, and the threaded rod 9 is used to drive the scraper 10 to move;

[0026] The cleaning mechanism 8 includes a water tank 81, a circulation pump 82, a connecting pipe 83 and a water spray pipe 84. The water tank 81 is arranged on one side of the surface of the collecting box 1, and the water tank 81 is connected to the inside of the collecting box 1. The circulating pump 82 is arranged above the water tank 81, and the circulating pump 82 is fixedly connected to the gantry 2. The input end of the circulating pump 82 extends to the inside of the water tank 81 and is connected thereto. One end of the connecting pipe 83 is connected to the output end of the circulating pump 82. The middle section of the connecting pipe 83 is fixedly connected to one side of the moving mechanism 3. The water spray pipe 84 is connected to the other end of the connecting pipe 83. The water spray pipe 84 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the processing mechanism 4, and a plurality of water spray holes 16 are opened at the bottom of the water spray pipe 84.

[0027] Through the above technical scheme, by setting up a cleaning mechanism 8, by starting the circulation pump 82, the water inside the water tank 81 is pumped into the water spray pipe 84 through the connecting pipe 83, and sprayed out through the water spray hole 16 below the water spray pipe 84, the debris on the surface of the workpiece during processing can be cleaned, and the fluidity of water can carry the debris on the surface of the workpiece through the chute 7 on the placement plate 6 into the interior of the collection box 1, so that the debris can be collected uniformly.

[0028] Specifically, one end of the threaded rod 9 passes through the inner wall of the collection box 1 and is rotatably connected thereto. A handle 11 is provided on one side of the collection box 1 . The handle 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 9 , and the diameter of the handle 11 is greater than the diameter of the threaded rod 9 .

[0029] Through the above technical solution, by providing the handle 11, an effective force application point can be provided when the staff rotates the threaded rod 9, so that the staff can easily rotate the threaded rod 9.

[0030] Specifically, the other end of the threaded rod 9 is fixedly connected to a bearing seat 12, and the outer ring of the bearing seat 12 is embedded in the inner wall on the other side of the collection box 1 and fixedly connected thereto.

[0031] Through the above technical solution, by setting the bearing seat 12, the other end of the threaded rod 9 can be fixed so that it will not shake violently when rotating, thereby increasing the stability of the threaded rod 9 when rotating.

[0032] Specifically, a limiting rod 13 is provided inside the collecting box 1, one end of the limiting rod 13 is fixedly connected to an inner wall of one side of the collecting box 1, the other end of the limiting rod 13 passes through the other side of the scraper 10 and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the other side of the collecting box 1, and the limiting rod 13 and the scraper 10 are slidably connected.

[0033] Through the above technical solution, by setting the limit rod 13, the scraper 10 can be guided and limited when it moves, so that it will not have a large position deviation when moving, thereby increasing the stability of the scraper 10 when moving, and also enabling the scraper 10 to collect the debris inside the collection box 1 more cleanly.

[0034] Specifically, a filter plate 14 is provided at the connection between the collection box 1 and the water box 81 , and the filter plate 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection box 1 .

[0035] Through the above technical solution, by setting up the filter plate 14, the debris in the cleaned water can be filtered to prevent the circulation pump 82 from sucking the debris into the pipe, causing blockage of the pipe and the water spray hole 16 on the water spray pipe 84. At the same time, it can also prevent the circulation pump 82 from being damaged by long-term suction.

[0036] Specifically, one side of the surface of the collecting box 1 is connected with a drain pipe 15, the connecting pipe 83 between the circulating pump 82 and the moving mechanism 3 is set as a telescopic pipe, and the connecting pipe 83 between the moving mechanism 3 and the water spray pipe 84 is set as a telescopic pipe.

[0037] Through the above technical solution, by setting up the drain pipe 15, the water inside the collection box 1 and the water tank 81 can be cleaned and replaced regularly, and the connecting pipe 83 between the circulating pump 82 and the moving mechanism 3 is set as a retractable pipe, and the connecting pipe 83 between the moving mechanism 3 and the water spray pipe 84 is set as a retractable pipe. Since the moving mechanism 3 needs to drive the processing mechanism 4 to move upward, and the moving mechanism 3 needs to be retracted to process the workpiece, the normal operation of the moving mechanism 3 and the processing mechanism 4 will not be affected by the retractable pipe.

[0038] Working principle: When processing the workpiece, first fill water into the collection box 1. Since the collection box 1 is connected to the water tank 81, the water will flow into the water tank 81. Then, by starting the circulation pump 82, the water in the water tank 81 is pumped to the water spray pipe 84 through the connecting pipe 83, and sprayed out through the water spray hole 16 below the water spray pipe 84. In this way, when the processing mechanism 4 processes the workpiece, the debris on the surface of the workpiece during processing can be cleaned. Then, the debris on the surface of the workpiece can be carried by the fluidity of water through the chute 7 on the placement plate 6 into the collection box 1. After the inside of the collection box 1 is cleaned, The water will pass through the filter plate 14 and flow into the interior of the water tank 81 again, thereby realizing the secondary utilization of the water after cleaning the debris and avoiding the waste of water resources. When the debris needs to be collected, the handle 11 can be turned to drive the threaded rod 9 to rotate, so that the scraper 10 can be moved inside the collection box 1, and the debris deposited at the bottom of the collection box 1 can be scraped off to one side of the collection box 1, so that the staff can collect the debris at the bottom of the collection box 1 in a unified manner. When the water inside the collection box 1 needs to be replaced, the water inside the collection box 1 can be discharged by opening the drain pipe 15.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
