Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of mechanical processing equipment, and in particular to a machine tool with a protective function. Background Art
[0002] At present, machine tools are mainly used for turning rotating workpieces. In the metal processing process, machine tools, as key equipment, are widely used in various processing workshops.
[0003] Due to the high cutting speed and large cutting volume of the machine tool, in order to cool the temperature of the cutting chips during processing, coolant must be sprayed through the cooling pipe to reduce the temperature of the iron chips. The flying iron chips can easily injure the surrounding workers and also affect the safety of the surrounding workers. Therefore, a protective door is set on the machine tool, which is slidably connected to the machine tool. The operator manually opens the protective door to load and unload materials, and closes the protective door before starting to process the workpiece.
[0004] The protective door needs to be closed manually by the staff frequently. There are cases where the staff forget to close the protective door and start processing, the staff mistakenly open the protective door during workpiece processing, or the protective door is not closed tightly due to machine tool vibration. At this time, the flying iron chips will injure the surrounding staff and create a safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the protective cover is opened, the inclined surface is squeezed to drive the pressure rod to move downward, and the pressure rod drives the first rack to engage with the first gear and the third gear, thereby realizing the linkage between the protective cover and the moving seat; when the protective cover is closed, the second elastic member returns the pressed pressure rod to its original position through its own elasticity, and the first rack is away from the first gear and the third gear, which will not interfere with the normal processing of the machine tool, thereby further increasing the safety and ease of use of the machine tool.

[0034] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with all the accompanying drawings.
[0035] The embodiment of the present application discloses a machine tool with a protective function.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 A machine tool with a protective function comprises a machine body 1, two protective covers 2 are slidably connected to the machine body 1 along the axis of rotation of the workpiece on the outer side of the machine body 1, and the protective covers 2 and the machine body 1 together enclose a space for processing the workpiece, thereby ensuring that during the processing, chips and coolant will not splash out of the space, protecting the safety of the operator. The two protective covers 2 are symmetrically arranged, and the protective covers 2 are provided with a plurality of magnets 23 at the joint of the two protective covers 2, and a handle 24 is provided on the protective cover 2. A fourth gear 18 is rotatably connected to the machine body 1, and the axis direction of the fourth gear 18 is perpendicular to the side wall of the machine body 1 on which the fourth gear 18 is provided, and the fourth gear 18 is meshed with a third rack 25 and a fourth rack 26, and the third rack 25 and the fourth rack 26 move in opposite directions, and the third rack 25 and the fourth rack 26 are fixedly connected to different protective covers 2. The synchronous switching of the two protective covers 2 can be realized.
[0037] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The body 1 is provided with a moving seat 11, on which a feed seat 15 slides, and on which a tool seat 12 slides. The moving seat 11 is used to drive the tool to move back and forth along the direction of the axis of rotation of the workpiece to process the surface of the workpiece. The tool seat 12 and the feed seat 15 have the same sliding direction, and both move in a direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the workpiece. The moving seat 11 and the feed seat 15 are threadedly connected with a screw, and a motor is provided to drive the screw to rotate, and the rotation of the screw drives the moving seat 11 and the feed seat 15 to move; the tool seat 12 is threadedly connected with a screw 121, and the screw 121 is rotatably connected to the feed seat 15, and the rotation of the screw 121 drives the tool seat 12 to move. A convex strip 122 is circumferentially provided at one end of the screw 121 close to the protective cover 2, and a groove corresponding to the convex strip 122 is provided on the first gear 13. The screw 121 is coaxially slidably connected with the first gear 13. The matching structure of the convex strip 122 and the concave groove not only ensures stable transmission between the screw rod 121 and the first gear 13, but also allows the screw rod 121 to move axially relative to the first gear 13 when the feed seat 15 moves, thereby meeting more complex processing requirements.
[0038] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 When the screw 121 rotates, the tool holder 12 moves in a direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the workpiece to achieve the action of feeding or retracting. The moving holder 11 is rotatably connected to the first gear 13, and the first gear 13 is coaxially slidably connected to the screw 121. The first gear 13 is meshed with the first rack 14, and when the first rack 14 moves along the axis of rotation of the workpiece, it drives the first gear 13 to rotate.
[0039] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 , a second rack 21 is provided on one side of the protective cover 2 close to the moving seat 11, and the second rack 21 is meshed with a second gear 22. A synchronous shaft 221 is provided on the machine body 1, which is rotatably connected to the machine body 1. The synchronous shaft 221 is coaxially fixedly connected with the second gear 22, and a third gear 141 is coaxially fixedly provided on one end of the synchronous shaft 221 close to the machine body 1. The third gear 141 is meshed with the first rack 14. Through this meshing transmission structure of the gear and the rack, the opening and closing of the protective cover 2 and the movement of the machine tool processing part are linked.
[0040] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5Specifically, the protective cover 2 drives the second rack 21 to move in the direction of closing the protective cover 2. Due to the meshing relationship between the second gear 22 and the second rack 21, the second gear 22 will rotate accordingly, and the second gear 22 will drive the synchronous shaft 221 to rotate. The third gear 141 will also rotate with the rotation of the synchronous shaft 221, and the first rack 14 will move in the direction of closing the protective cover 2 accordingly. Due to the meshing relationship between the first gear 13 and the first rack 14, the first gear 13 will rotate accordingly, and the first gear 13 drives the screw 121 to rotate, and the screw 121 rotates to drive the tool holder 12 to move in the direction of the workpiece. On the contrary, when the protective cover 2 is opened, the screw 121 reverses to drive the tool holder 12 to move away from the workpiece.
[0041] Reference Figure 3 , a limit frame 16 is provided on the movable seat 11, and the limit frame 16 is used to limit the first rack 14, and a pressure plate 161 is provided in the limit frame 16. A trapezoidal block can be provided on the side of the first rack 14 close to the pressure plate 161, and a corresponding trapezoidal groove is provided on the pressure plate 161. The pressure plate 161 and the first rack 14 are slidably connected along the axis of rotation of the workpiece, and the width of the upper part of the trapezoidal block is greater than the width of the lower part, so that the first rack 14 will not be separated from the pressure plate 161 in the vertical direction. A first elastic member 162 is provided between the side of the pressure plate 161 away from the first gear 13 and the limit frame 16. In the natural state of the first elastic member 162, the first rack 14 does not mesh with the first gear 13. This structural setting ensures that under normal circumstances, the first rack 14 will not interfere with the normal processing of the machine tool, further increasing the safety and ease of use of the machine tool.
[0042] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 When the tool holder 12 is required to approach or move away from the workpiece, the first rack 14 can be meshed with the first gear 13 by operating the pressing plate 161. Specifically, the pressing plate 161 is slidably connected to the limit frame 16 in the vertical direction, and the first rack 14 is located between the first gear 13 and the pressing plate 161. When the pressing plate 161 is moved downward by an external force, the first elastic member 162 is compressed and the first rack 14 is pushed to mesh with the first gear 13, thereby triggering the tool holder 12 to approach or move away from the workpiece.
[0043] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 A pressure rod 3 is provided on the side of the first rack 14 away from the first gear 13. A pressure wheel 31 is rotatably connected to one end of the pressure rod 3 close to the first rack 14. The axial direction of the pressure wheel 31 is the same as the axial direction of the first gear 13, and the side wall of the pressure wheel 31 is in contact with the first rack 14. The pressure wheel 31 can reduce the friction force when the first rack 14 moves in the horizontal direction. A support plate 34 is sleeved on the pressure rod 3, and the support plate 34 is fixedly connected to the fuselage 1. The pressure rod 3 is slidably connected to the support plate 34 in the vertical direction, and the support plate 34 can improve the stability of the pressure rod 3.
[0044] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 6 The end of the pressure rod 3 away from the first rack 14 is an inclined surface 33, the height of the inclined surface 33 gradually increases along the sliding direction when the protective cover 2 is opened, and the protective cover 2 is just separated from the inclined surface 33 when it is closed. A sliding groove 17 is opened in the side wall of the fuselage 1, and a second elastic member 32 is arranged in the sliding groove 17. One end of the second elastic member 32 abuts against the fuselage 1, and the other end of the second elastic member 32 abuts against the pressure rod 3. In the natural state of the second elastic member 32, the lowest side of the inclined surface 33 is located below the inner wall of the protective cover 2, and the highest side of the inclined surface 33 is located above the inner wall of the protective cover 2. When the protective cover 2 is opened, the inclined surface 33 is squeezed, driving the pressure rod 3 to move downward, and the pressure rod 3 drives the first rack 14 to mesh with the first gear 13 and the third gear 141, thereby realizing the linkage between the protective cover 2 and the movable seat 11; when the protective cover 2 is closed, the second elastic member 32 returns the pressed pressure rod 3 to its original position through its own elasticity, and the first rack 14 is away from the first gear 13 and the third gear 141, which will not interfere with the normal processing of the machine tool, further increasing the safety and ease of use of the machine tool. The size of the inclined surface 33 and the distance between the first rack 14 and the first gear 13 are calculated, so that the first rack 14 meshes with the first gear 13 and the third gear 141 while the protective cover 2 squeezes the inclined surface 33, and the first rack 14 can also mesh with the first gear 13 and the third gear 141 when the protective cover 2 completely squeezes the inclined surface 33.
[0045] The implementation principle of a machine tool with a protective function in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: when the protective cover 2 is opened, the inclined surface 33 is squeezed to drive the pressure rod 3 to move downward, and the pressure rod 3 drives the first rack 14 to engage with the first gear 13 and the third gear 141 to realize the linkage between the protective cover 2 and the movable seat 11, and the protective cover 2 drives the second rack 21 to move in the direction of opening the protective cover 2. Due to the meshing relationship between the second gear 22 and the second rack 21, the second gear 22 will rotate accordingly, and the second gear 22 will drive the synchronous shaft 221 to rotate, and the third gear 141 will also rotate with the rotation of the synchronous shaft 221, and the first rack 14 will move in the direction of opening the protective cover 2. Due to the meshing relationship between the first gear 13 and the first rack 14, the first gear 13 will rotate accordingly, and the first gear 13 drives the screw 121 to rotate, and the screw 121 rotates to drive the tool seat 12 to move away from the workpiece. When the protective cover 2 is closed, the second elastic member 32 returns the pressed pressure rod 3 to its original position through its own elasticity, the first rack 14 moves away from the first gear 13 and the third gear 141, and the screw 121 reverses to drive the tool seat 12 to move toward the workpiece. At this time, the tool on the tool seat 12 cannot process the workpiece, reducing injuries to workers caused by splashing iron chips and improving safety.
[0046] 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.
