[0002] CNC machine tools are machine tools that achieve automated processing through computer control systems. They control the movement and processing of tools through pre-written CNC programs to achieve precise processing of workpieces. CNC machine tools have the characteristics of high precision, high efficiency, and strong flexibility, and are widely used in various metal processing fields, such as turning, milling, drilling, etc. Compared with traditional machine tools, CNC machine tools have higher processing accuracy and stability, can realize the processing of complex workpieces, and improve production efficiency and product quality.

[0003] However, when processing parts, the cutting tool head heats up, so it is necessary to continuously spray coolant on it, which causes the coolant and the iron chips produced by cutting to easily splash onto the observation window, causing the observation window to be blurred, affecting the operator's observation of the working progress and status of the machine tool. In addition, the existing CNC machine tool protection device only uses a scraper to wipe the coolant on the observation window, which causes the scraper to scratch the observation window during the wiping process. Utility Model Content

[0007] Furthermore, threaded holes are provided at both upper and lower ends of the movable plate, and the movable plate is screwed onto the two screw rods through the threaded holes at both ends.

[0008] Furthermore, there is a gap between the plate surface of the electromagnet plate and the observation window; the scraping surface of the scraper is higher than the plate surface of the electromagnet plate so as to be in close contact with the observation window.

[0009] Furthermore, the scraper is made of silicone or rubber.

[0010] Furthermore, the CNC machine tool is provided with a control unit, and the motor and the electromagnet plate are electrically connected to the control unit.

[0024] Combination Figures 1 to 5 A protective device for a CNC machine tool shown in the figure comprises a CNC machine tool 1 and a protective door 2 movably arranged on the CNC machine tool 1, an observation window 3 is arranged on the protective door 2, a cleaning mechanism for cleaning the observation window 3 is arranged on the inner side of the protective door 2, the cleaning mechanism comprises a magnetic scraper assembly 4 and a driving assembly 5 for driving the magnetic scraper assembly 4 to move left and right, the magnetic scraper assembly 4 comprises a moving plate 41, and an electromagnetic iron plate 42 and a scraper 43 are fixedly mounted on the moving plate 41 respectively;

[0025] Among them, the driving assembly 5 includes four screw rod seats 51, which are fixedly arranged on the inner side of the protective door 2 and located on the left and right sides of the observation window 3. Two screw rods 52 are evenly distributed and rotatably installed on the four screw rod seats 51. Synchronous wheels 53 are fixedly arranged on the two screw rods 52. The two synchronous wheels 53 are connected through a synchronous belt 54. A motor 55 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the protective door 2, and the output end of the motor 55 is fixedly connected to one of the screw rods 52; a protective cover 56 for protecting the driving assembly 5 is installed on the inner side of the protective door 2 by screws; threaded holes are arranged at the upper and lower ends of the moving plate 41, and the moving plate 41 is screwed to the two screw rods 52 through the threaded holes at both ends; there is a gap between the plate surface of the electromagnetic plate 42 and the observation window 3; the scraping surface of the scraper 43 is higher than the plate surface of the electromagnetic plate 42 to be close to the observation window 3; the scraper 43 is made of silicone or rubber; a control unit 6 is provided on the CNC machine tool 1, and the motor 55 and the electromagnetic plate 42 are electrically connected to the control unit 6.

[0026] Working principle: When in use, the motor 55 is started by operating the control unit 6, and the motor 55 drives the screw rod 52 to rotate. The screw rod 52 drives the synchronous wheel 53 to rotate through the synchronous belt 54, so that the two screw rods 52 rotate, thereby driving the movable plate 41 screwed thereon to move left and right. During the movement of the movable plate 41, the electromagnet plate 42 is started at the same time, and the iron filings on the observation window 3 are sucked onto the electromagnet plate 42 by magnetic attraction, so as to achieve the purpose of removing the iron filings. Subsequently, as the movable plate 41 moves, the scraper 43 is close to the observation window 3 and scrapes off the coolant that blocks the line of sight. Finally, the motor 55 reverses the movable plate 41 to reset. During the resetting process, the scraper 43 scrapes and cleans the observation window 3 again, thereby effectively cleaning the observation window on the protective door and keeping the field of vision clear. The iron filings on the electromagnet plate 42 can be blown off by turning off the power and using the air gun provided with the CNC machine tool.
