[0002] CNC machine tool is the abbreviation of digital control machine tool, which is an automated machine tool equipped with a program control system. The control system can logically process programs specified by control codes or other symbolic instructions, decode them, express them in coded numbers, and input them into the CNC device through information carriers. After calculation and processing, the CNC device sends various control signals to control the movement of the machine tool and automatically process the parts according to the shape and size required by the drawing.

[0003] The current CNC machine tools mainly clamp the workpiece by means of a fixture on the workbench. During processing, the chips and cutting fluid generated during processing tend to remain on the surface of the workbench. In order to avoid the accumulation of chips, it is necessary to continuously clean and remove the chips.

[0004] Chip removal, which can be done manually by hand-held air blowing, requires shutting down the CNC machine tool, which can easily affect the processing efficiency. It is impossible to continuously collect and centrally discharge chips and cutting fluid during the processing. Manual cleaning is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and there are residues, which cannot guarantee the processing environment of the workpiece. In view of this, we propose a chip removal mechanism for CNC machine tools. Utility Model Content

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0016] 1. The utility model realizes the collection of cutting fluid and debris during the workpiece processing by means of a retaining groove with an extended retaining member in cooperation with a trapezoidal bottom plate. When the cutting fluid and debris flow into two confluence grooves through the trapezoidal bottom plate, the cutting fluid and debris in the confluence groove are continuously moved to a discharge structure by two belt conveyors, and the cutting fluid and debris are discharged through the discharge structure.

The discharge structure of the opening 306 realizes the collection of cutting fluid and debris during the workpiece processing by means of the enclosure groove 301 provided with an extended enclosure 302 and the trapezoidal bottom plate 303. After the cutting fluid and debris flow into the two confluence grooves 304 through the trapezoidal bottom plate 303, the cutting fluid and debris in the confluence grooves 304 are continuously moved to the discharge structure by two belt conveyors 305, and the cutting fluid and debris are discharged through the discharge structure.
