Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of coolant storage devices, and specifically relates to a coolant storage device for the cutting section of a wire cutting equipment. Background Art

[0002] A wire cutting machine tool is an electro-discharge machining tool. Its basic working principle is to use a continuously moving thin metal wire (called tungsten-molybdenum wire) as an electrode to perform pulsed spark discharge on a workpiece to erode metal and cut it into shape. This kind of machine tool is mainly used for processing various workpieces with complex shapes and precision and small sizes, and is one of the indispensable equipment in the manufacturing industry;

[0003] Since heat is generated during the electro-erosion process of the tungsten-molybdenum wire, coolant is introduced during the working process. The circulating coolant can cool the tungsten-molybdenum wire, thereby reducing the loss of the tungsten-molybdenum wire and extending the service life of the tungsten-molybdenum wire. The coolant is usually sprayed out from the eye molds of the lower wire seat and the upper wire seat, and the tungsten-molybdenum wire between the lower wire seat and the upper wire seat is usually vertical, because the discharged coolant can flow along the tungsten-molybdenum wire. However, this spraying method is still difficult to efficiently cool the tungsten-molybdenum wire, and when the coolant drainage volume decreases or the spray water pipe is blocked, resulting in a decrease in the coolant output, it is difficult for the coolant to efficiently cool the tungsten-molybdenum wire. Secondly, when cutting a workpiece with a large taper, since the tungsten-molybdenum wire is inclined, the sprayed coolant is difficult to adhere to the tungsten-molybdenum wire, which will also reduce the cooling effect of the coolant on the tungsten-molybdenum wire. Based on this, a coolant storage device for the cutting section of a wire cutting equipment is proposed. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a coolant storage device for the cutting section of a wire cutting equipment that can overcome the above problems or at least partially solve the above problems.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: A coolant storage device for the cutting section of a wire cutting equipment, including a lower wire seat and an upper wire seat respectively installed with eye molds, further including: a coolant flow and accommodation component, which is respectively arranged on the eye molds of the lower wire seat and the upper wire seat. The coolant flow and accommodation component is provided with an accommodation cavity, and a metal wire passes through the coolant flow and accommodation components on the lower wire seat and the upper wire seat. When the coolant enters the coolant flow and accommodation component, the accommodation cavity of the coolant flow and accommodation component concentrates the coolant.

[0006] Preferably, the coolant flow and accommodation component includes a first water storage container, both ends of the first water storage container are through-shaped, and the first water storage container is connected to the eye mold.

[0007] Furthermore, a first slotted groove is opened on the outer periphery of the first water storage container in the length direction.

[0008] Preferably, the accommodation cavity of the first water storage container is a first hexagonal groove, which corresponds to the hexagonal body on the eye mold, and the first water storage container is inserted on the hexagonal body of the eye mold through the first hexagonal groove.

[0009] Preferably, the coolant flow accommodation assembly includes a second water storage container with through ends. A plugging assembly is installed at one end of the second water storage container, and holes for the metal wire to pass through and discharge the coolant are formed in the plugging assembly. The second water storage container is connected to the eye mold.

[0010] Further, the accommodation cavity of the second water storage container is a second hexagonal groove, and the second water storage container is inserted on the hexagonal body of the eye mold through the second hexagonal groove.

[0011] Preferably, a second slotted opening is formed on the outer periphery of the second water storage container in the length direction, and the second water storage container is tightly locked to the eye mold through a clamp.

[0012] Preferably, the plugging assembly includes a hexagonal end cap. A first through hole is formed in the middle of the hexagonal end cap, and a slotted opening is formed on the hexagonal end cap. One end of the slotted opening communicates with the first through hole, and the other end penetrates through the outer wall of the hexagonal end cap.

[0013] Preferably, screw holes are formed on the outer peripheries of the hexagonal end cap and the second water storage container, and setscrews are threadedly connected in the screw holes.

[0014] Preferably, the plugging assembly includes a tapered sleeve threadedly connected to one end of the second water storage container. A second through hole is formed in the tapered sleeve, and the second through hole is tapered. A third slotted opening is formed on the outer periphery of the tapered sleeve, and the third slotted opening communicates with the second through hole.

[0015] After adopting the above technical solutions, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: By sleeving a coolant flow accommodation assembly on the eye molds of the lower wire seat and the upper wire seat, and the coolant flow accommodation assembly has a certain length and an accommodation cavity for accommodating the coolant is provided therein. By centrally accommodating the ejected coolant, the accommodation cavity is filled with coolant, thereby realizing the cooling of the metal wire.

[0016] During the use process, the coolant on the lower wire seat will spray upward. Therefore, the coolant will spray into the accommodation cavity of the coolant flow accommodation component, causing the coolant to remain and accumulate in the coolant flow accommodation component. Furthermore, the metal wire is immersed in the accommodation cavity, enhancing the cooling effect of the coolant on the metal wire. The coolant on the upper wire seat will drain downward, and the coolant flow accommodation component provided on the upper wire seat can gather the sprayed coolant on the upper wire seat, preventing the coolant from scattering and weakening the cooling effect on the metal wire. Therefore, the coolant flow accommodation component provided in this device can effectively improve the cooling effect on the metal wire during the electro-erosion process, reducing the loss of the metal wire and increasing its service life.

The coolant flow and accommodation assembly is provided with an accommodation cavity, and a wire passes through the coolant flow and accommodation assemblies on the lower wire seat 1 and the upper wire seat 2. When the coolant enters the coolant flow and accommodation assembly, the accommodation cavity of the coolant flow and accommodation assembly concentrates the coolant;

[0029] In this device, a coolant flow and accommodation assembly is sleeved on the eye mold 3 of the lower wire seat 1 and the upper wire seat 2, and the coolant flow and accommodation assembly has a certain length and is provided with an accommodation cavity for accommodating the coolant;

[0030] It should be noted that the coolant flow and accommodation assembly can also be installed on the upper water plate of the upper wire seat 1;

[0031] During use, the coolant on the lower wire seat 1 will spray upward, so the coolant will spray into the accommodation cavity of the coolant flow and accommodation assembly, causing the coolant to remain and accumulate in the coolant flow and accommodation assembly. Furthermore, the wire is immersed in the accommodation cavity, improving the cooling effect of the coolant on the wire;

[0032] The coolant on the upper wire seat 2 will drain downward, and the coolant flow and accommodation assembly provided on the upper wire seat 2 can gather the coolant sprayed from the upper wire seat 2, preventing the coolant from scattering and weakening the cooling effect on the wire;

[0033] Therefore, the coolant flow and accommodation assembly provided in this device can effectively improve the cooling effect on the wire during the electro-erosion process, reducing the loss of the wire and increasing its service life.

[0034] Example 2: Refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3, A coolant storage device for the cutting section of a wire cutting device, which is basically the same as that in Embodiment 1. Further: The coolant flow accommodating component includes a first water storage container 4. Both ends of the first water storage container 4 are through-shaped, and the first water storage container 4 is connected to the eye mold 3;

[0035] A first slotted seam 42 is provided on the outer periphery of the first water storage container 4 in the length direction. The first slotted seam 42 can sleeved the first water storage container 4 on the wire without removing the wire, and can be inserted on or removed from the eye mold 3;

[0036] The accommodating cavity of the first water storage container 4 is a first hexagonal groove 41, and the first hexagonal groove 41 corresponds to the hexagonal body 31 on the eye mold 3. The first water storage container 4 is inserted on the hexagonal body 31 of the eye mold 3 through the first hexagonal groove 41;

[0037] Inserting the first water storage container 4 on the eye mold 3 of the lower wire seat 1 can prevent the first water storage container 4 from shaking;

[0038] When the first water storage container 4 is inserted on the eye mold 3 of the upper wire seat 2 by an interference fit method, it is convenient to connect the first water storage container 4 and the eye mold 3.

[0040] The plugging component can be used to gather the coolant entering the second water storage container 5 in the second water storage container 5 for a long time, thereby improving the cooling effect on the wire;

[0041] When the second water storage container 5 is installed on the eye mold 3 of the upper wire seat 2, the opening size at one end of the second water storage container 5 can be reduced, so that the flow rate of the coolant flowing out of the second water storage container 5 is reduced, thereby improving the cooling effect on the wire.

[0042] The accommodating cavity of the second water storage container 5 is a second hexagonal groove 51, and the second water storage container 5 is inserted on the hexagonal body 31 of the eye mold 3 through the second hexagonal groove 51;

[0043] A second slotted seam 52 is provided on the outer periphery of the second water storage container 5 in the length direction. The second water storage container 5 is locked and connected to the eye mold 3 through a clamp 53 to achieve quick installation and disassembly;

[0044] The clamp 53 can also be replaced with other tools that can be quickly disassembled from the eye mold 3. For example, a magnet can be installed on the second water storage container 5 and adsorbed on the upper wire seat 2 through the magnet.

[0045] Embodiment 4: Refer to Figure 4 、 Figure 5 , a coolant storage device for the cutting section of a wire cutting device, which is basically the same as Embodiment 3.

When the gap of the second slotted seam 52 shrinks, the second water storage container 5 will clamp the hexagonal end cap 54, so that the hexagonal end cap 54 is stably connected to the second water storage container 5.

[0047] It should be noted that the accommodating cavities of the first water storage container 4 and the second water storage container 5 can also be circular. Therefore, the hexagonal end cap 54 in the plugging component is adaptively changed to have a circular outer periphery to correspond to the circular accommodating cavity.

[0053] The setting of the third slotted seam 57 enables the installation or disassembly of the tapered sleeve 56 without disassembling the wire, thereby facilitating use.

[0054] In another embodiment, referring to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 , the first water storage container 4 is installed on the lower wire seat 1, and the second water storage container 5 is installed on the upper wire seat 2 for use.

[0055] Furthermore, the materials of the first water storage container 4 and the second water storage container 5 are preferably metal and plastic, but are not limited to metal and plastic; secondly, the shapes and sizes of the outer shapes and inner cavities of the first water storage container 4 and the second water storage container 5 are not limited to cylindrical shapes, and can also be conical.

[0056] In the present utility model, a coolant flow accommodating assembly is sleeved on the eye molds 3 of the lower wire seat 1 and the upper wire seat 2, and the coolant flow accommodating assembly has a certain length and is provided with an accommodating cavity for accommodating the coolant;

[0057] During use, the coolant on the lower wire seat 1 will spray upward, so the coolant will spray into the accommodating cavity of the coolant flow accommodating assembly, causing the coolant to remain and accumulate in the coolant flow accommodating assembly, thereby submerging the wire in the accommodating cavity and improving the cooling effect of the coolant on the wire; the coolant on the upper wire seat 2 will drain downward, and the coolant flow accommodating assembly provided on the upper wire seat 2 can gather the coolant sprayed from the upper wire seat 2, preventing the coolant from scattering and weakening the cooling effect on the wire; therefore, the coolant flow accommodating assembly provided in this device can effectively improve the cooling effect on the wire during the electro-erosion process, reducing the loss of the wire and increasing its service life.
