Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of wire cutting machine tools, and in particular relates to a cooling liquid filtering system of a wire cutting machine tool. Background Art

[0002] The CNC wire cutting machine tool is mainly composed of three parts: mechanical, electrical and working fluid system. Among them, the working fluid system is generally composed of a working fluid tank, a working fluid pump, a liquid inlet pipe, a liquid return pipe, a flow control valve, a filter cover or a filter element, etc., which are used to concentrate the discharge energy, take away the discharge heat to cool the electrode wire and the workpiece, and remove the electro-erosion products.

[0003] The existing coolant filtration system of the wire cutting machine generally includes a working pump, a filter, a coolant tank, etc., and the filter is equipped with a filter element. The working pump extracts the coolant in the coolant tank and transports it to the filter, and then it is filtered by the filter and transported to the wire cutting machine.

[0004] Due to the characteristics of the paper filter element in the filter, the cleanliness of the coolant output by the filter will be affected by the cleanliness of the coolant in the coolant tank. The higher the cleanliness of the coolant in the coolant tank, the better the cleanliness of the coolant delivered to the wire cutting machine after being filtered by the filter. However, the cleanliness of the coolant delivered to the wire cutting machine in the existing filtration system is not ideal, resulting in poor stability of the wire cutting machine.

[0005] In response to the above technical problems, the existing patent CN 218188283 U discloses a coolant filtration system for a wire cutting machine tool, including a filter body, a coolant tank, a working pump and a filter are arranged on the filter body, the coolant in the coolant tank is pumped to the filter by the working pump, the outlet of the filter is connected to the wire cutting machine tool, and a drain pipe and a drainage component are also arranged on the filter body, one end of the drain pipe is connected to the outlet of the filter, and the other end of the drain pipe is connected to the drainage component, and the drainage component is connected to the inside of the coolant tank. The coolant filtration system improves the cleanliness of the coolant in the coolant tank through circulating filtration, and the cleanliness of the coolant delivered to the wire cutting machine tool is good, which can improve the stability of the wire cutting machine tool.

[0006] However, the inventors of the present invention believe that, during filtration, a standard amount of coolant is delivered to the machine tool for use after passing through the filter, and the remaining coolant continues to be filtered. However, the internal cleanliness of the standard amount of coolant after the initial filtration cannot be guaranteed, and multiple cycles of filtration can easily cause coolant loss.

[0009] Furthermore, the export pipe is L-shaped, the discharge pipe is also L-shaped, a flange is fixed at the opposite position of the export pipe and the discharge pipe, a flange is also fixed on the discharge pipe, and the first filter element is threadedly connected between the two flanges.

[0010] Furthermore, the discharge pipe is fixed on the bracket by a clamp.

[0013] Furthermore, a transparent pipe section is embedded in the discharge pipe, and an infrared emitter and an infrared sensing photoelectric switch are respectively provided on both sides of the transparent pipe section. The infrared emitter and the infrared sensing photoelectric switch are both fixed on the side of the bracket, and the infrared sensing photoelectric switch is connected in series with the water pump and the electric three-way valve.

[0014] By adopting the above scheme, when the infrared induction photoelectric switch excites an electrical signal, the water pump can be turned on and the discharge pipe and the auxiliary pipe can be connected at the same time.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] In order to further understand the content, features and effects of the utility model, the following embodiments are given as examples and described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Please also refer to Figure 1 to Figure 2 The coolant filtration system of the wire cutting machine tool according to the embodiment of the utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the coolant filtration system of the wire cutting machine tool includes a bracket 1, a base plate 2 is fixed at the bottom of the bracket 1, a derivation pipe 3 is fixed with a clamp on the bracket 1, one end of the derivation pipe 3 is connected to the coolant tank of the wire cutting machine tool, and the other end of the derivation pipe 3 is connected to a discharge pipe 4, and a liquid outlet pipe 5 is threadedly connected to the upper end of the discharge pipe 4, and the liquid outlet pipe 5 is connected to the liquid outlet structure of the wire cutting machine tool. A first filter element 6 is screwed fixed between the discharge pipe 4 and the derivation pipe 3, and an auxiliary filter component is also connected to the discharge pipe 4, and the auxiliary filter component is communicated with the liquid outlet pipe 5.

[0025] The outlet pipe 3 and the discharge pipe 4 are both L-shaped, and a flange 7 is fixed at the opposite position of the outlet pipe 3 and the discharge pipe 4. A flange 7 is also fixed on the discharge pipe 4. The first filter element 6 is threadedly connected between the two flanges 7. The outlet pipe 3, the discharge pipe 4 and the first filter element 6 are combined into a U-shaped structure. At the same time, the discharge pipe 4 is also fixed to the bracket 1 by a clamp.

[0026] Specifically, the auxiliary filtering component includes an electric three-way valve 8 connected to the discharge pipe 4, the end of the electric three-way valve 8 away from the discharge pipe 4 is connected to a connector 9, the connector 9 is fixed to the bracket 1 through a clamp, the connector 9 is threadedly fixed and connected to the liquid outlet pipe 5, and also includes an auxiliary pipe 10 connected to the electric three-way valve 8, an auxiliary liquid tank 11 is provided below the end of the auxiliary pipe 10 away from the electric three-way valve 8, a second filter element 12 is fixed inside the auxiliary liquid tank 11, a support plate 13 is fixed to the upper end of the auxiliary liquid tank 11, a water pump 14 is bolted on the support plate 13, the water inlet end of the water pump 14 extends into the auxiliary liquid tank 11, and the water outlet end is connected to the liquid outlet pipe 5.

[0027] A transparent pipe section 15 is embedded in the discharge pipe 4, and an infrared emitter 16 and an infrared sensing photoelectric switch 17 are respectively provided on both sides of the transparent pipe section 15. The infrared emitter 16 and the infrared sensing photoelectric switch 17 are both fixed on the side of the bracket 1, and the infrared sensing photoelectric switch 17 is connected in series with the water pump 14 and the electric three-way valve 8.

[0028] Then the above structure is installed in the wire cutting machine. The coolant from the coolant tank inside the wire cutting machine enters through the outlet pipe 3. After being filtered by the first filter element 6, the filtered coolant enters the discharge pipe 4. First, it passes through the transparent pipe section 15 on the discharge pipe 4. At this time, if there is cutting slag inside the coolant, it will block the infrared light emitted by the infrared transmitter 16, and then the amount of infrared light received by the infrared sensing photoelectric switch 17 will be reduced, stimulating an electrical signal. Based on the electrical control of the existing infrared sensing photoelectric switch 17, the electric three-way valve is turned off. 8 connects the discharge pipe 4 and the auxiliary pipe 10, closes the discharge pipe 4 and the connector 9, and the coolant containing cutting slag enters the auxiliary liquid tank 11, and is filtered again through the second filter element 12. The coolant after filtering enters the bottom of the auxiliary liquid tank 11, and at this time, the water pump 14 is synchronously turned on to pump the coolant at the bottom of the auxiliary liquid tank 11 to the liquid outlet pipe 5 for discharge; and there is no cutting slag in the coolant after filtering through the first filter element 6, then the discharge pipe 4 and the connector 9 are in a connected state, and the coolant enters the liquid outlet pipe 5 along the connector 9 for discharge.

[0029] In particular, there is reserved coolant in the auxiliary liquid tank 11, and when the discharge pipe 4 and the connector 9 are closed, the coolant can be replenished into the liquid outlet pipe 5 in real time without affecting the normal operation of the wire cutting machine.

[0030] The first filter element and the second filter element in this embodiment are both activated carbon filter elements, which can be cleaned and replaced. The infrared induction photoelectric switch model is E3F-DS30C4.
