Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of external thread processing cooling, and particularly relates to a cooling spray device for an external thread grinding machine. Background Art
[0002] A large amount of heat is generated during the process of grinding an external thread workpiece. If this heat is not transferred in time, it will cause the workpiece to be deformed by heat, thereby causing additional machining errors.
[0003] Currently, in the aspect of workpiece cooling of external thread grinding machines on the market, the common situation is a cooling system composed of a small number of movable hoses. A single movable hose can only cool a single position on the workpiece. When the workpiece is relatively long, this cooling system cannot completely cool the entire workpiece, bringing unstable factors to the surface quality and machining accuracy of the workpiece. Ultimately, the problems reflected on the workpiece are poor accuracy and poor geometric tolerance. During mass production, the adverse effects caused by such unstable factors will lead to the same accuracy defect problems in batches of workpieces, increasing the repair rate and scrap rate of high-precision workpieces, and having a greater impact on the daily production of enterprises. During small-batch production, it is necessary to frequently adjust the water outlet position of the movable hose, resulting in an increase in the machining time of a single workpiece and a reduction in work efficiency.

However, it will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art that the present utility model may be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, well-known features have not been described in order to avoid obscuring the present utility model.
[0027] In order to solve the above problems mentioned in the background art, and at the same time to avoid affecting the operation of the machine tool due to the presence of the flexible hose, a cooling and spraying device for an external thread grinding machine is provided herein, which has the advantage that the cooling oil can cover the workpiece with the maximum length that can be processed by the machine tool. After installation, there is no need to adjust the water outlet position, effectively reducing the processing time of a single workpiece and improving work efficiency. And the cooling and spraying system is installed on the front moving door of the overall machine protection cover of the machine tool and will move as the front moving door opens, without occupying the operation and use space of the machine tool due to the flexible hose.
[0028] The cooling and spraying device proposed in this embodiment is composed of a drag chain 7, a hydraulic hose 6, steel pipes, a ball valve 12, a nozzle 16 and joints. The hydraulic hose 6 passes through the drag chain 7 and is then connected to the ball valve 12 through joints and steel pipes. The ball valve 12 is connected to the nozzle 16 through joints and steel pipes.
[0029] In order to fix the above-mentioned hydraulic hose 6, two brackets are designed. Bracket I 20 and bracket II 21 are respectively fixed on the front cover (left) 1, front cover (right) 2, front moving door (left) 3 and front moving door (right) 4; the hydraulic hose 6 is fixed on the above two brackets through joints and is also fixed on the rear cover 5.
[0030] In order to enable the above-mentioned hydraulic hose 6 to move regularly during the movement of the front moving door, a drag chain 7 is designed. The hydraulic hose 6 is threaded into the drag chain 7, and both ends of the drag chain 7 are respectively fixed on the above two brackets by screws.
[0031] In order to facilitate the adjustment of the flow rate of the entire cooling and spraying system, a ball valve 12 is designed before the cooling oil enters the nozzle 16. It is connected to the hydraulic hose 6 through joints and steel pipes, and the flow rate can be adjusted at any time according to the on-site situation during operation. SeeFigure 3 As shown, the hydraulic hose 6 led out from the drag chain 7 is connected to the steel pipe I9 through a right-angle through-wall joint 8. The steel pipe I9 is then connected to a straight through-wall joint 10 and accesses a straight-through joint 11. The straight-through joint 11 then accesses a ball valve 12. The ball valve 12 is connected to a three-way joint 13. The three-way joint 13 is connected to a reducing joint 14. Finally, the reducing joint 14 is connected to an internal thread joint 15. The nozzle 16 is screwed onto the internal thread joint 15 to complete the installation.
[0032] In addition, one end of the horizontal direction of the three-way joint 13 is connected to the steel pipe II17. One end of the steel pipe II17 accesses a three-way joint 13. The three-way joint 13 is connected to a reducing joint 14. Finally, the reducing joint 14 is connected to an internal thread joint 15. The nozzle 16 is screwed onto the internal thread joint 15 to complete the installation of another spray unit. In order to enable the cooling oil to cover the workpiece with the maximum machinable length of the machine tool, multiple nozzles 16 are designed. The center distance between each nozzle 16 is 140 mm. Each nozzle 16 is connected to the outlet of the ball valve 12 through joints and steel pipes. By using the end connection of the three-way joint 13, multiple nozzles 16 can be arrayed in this way.
[0033] In order to make the structure of the entire cooling spray system stable, two pipe clamps 18 and pipe clamp brackets 19 are designed on the steel pipe connecting the nozzle 16 and the ball valve 12. The two pipe clamps 18 fix the steel pipe on the two brackets respectively through screws. The bracket I20 and the bracket II21 are respectively fixed on the front moving door (left) 3 and the front moving door (right) 4 through screws.
[0034] The cooling oil directly reaches the nozzle 16 from the oil inlet of the above-mentioned hydraulic hose 6 and finally sprays the cooling oil onto the workpiece surface to achieve the purpose of cooling.
[0035] As above, although the present invention has been shown and described with reference to specific preferred embodiments, it should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention itself. Various changes can be made to it in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention defined by the appended claims.
