[0026] In the following description, a large number of specific details are given to provide a more thorough understanding of the present utility model. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present utility model can be implemented without one or more of these details. In other examples, in order to avoid confusion with the present utility model, some well-known technical features in the art are not described.

[0027] This application discloses a wire cutting wire threading transition guide device and a wire cutting lower headstock. The wire cutting wire threading transition guide device is installed on the lower headstock of a wire cutting machine tool, and the wire cutting lower headstock is installed in the wire cutting machine tool. A laterally closed steering channel is enclosed by connecting the steering block, the wheel seat and the guide wheel, solving the problem of high wire threading failure rate caused by the large lateral gap between the steering block and the guide wheel in the prior art.

[0028] First aspect, as Figure 1 shown, the wire cutting wire threading transition guide device includes: two wheel seats 1, a guide wheel 2 and a steering block 3.

[0029] The wheel seat 1 and the steering block 3 are installed on the lower headstock, and the guide wheel 2 is installed on the two wheel seats 1.

[0030] The proximal ends of the two wheel seats 1 are sleeved on the guide wheel 2, and the changing block 3 is connected to the proximal ends of the two wheel seats 1, so that the changing block 3, the wheel seat 1 and the guide wheel 2 enclose a changing channel, which is an arc-shaped channel arranged around the guide wheel 2.

[0031] Regarding the cooperation between the wheel seat 1 and the turning block 3, Figure 2 The adjacent ends of the two wheel seats 1 are provided with groove portions 101 .

[0032] The direction-changing block 3 is provided with two protrusions 301 , and the groove 101 and the protrusions 301 are matched with each other in a concave-convex manner.

[0033] The wheel seat 1 and the steering block 3 support each other laterally through the concave-convex fit, further improving the structural stability and positioning accuracy during assembly.

[0034] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape formed by the two protrusions 301 and the side wall of the turning block 3 is a "C" shape, a "V" shape, a "U" shape, or a "凵" shape structure. Figure 3 The cross-sectional shape formed by the two protrusions 301 and the side wall of the direction-changing block 3 is a "U"-shaped structure.

[0035] Regarding the cooperation between the wheel seat 1 and the guide wheel 2, Figures 1 - 3 The guide wheel 2 shown is provided with an annular groove 201 , and the width of the annular groove 201 is ≤ the distance between the adjacent ends of the two wheel seats 1 .

[0036] The annular groove 201 can confine the wire electrode in the guide wheel 2 during operation, thereby avoiding the possibility of the wire electrode contacting the wheel seat 1 .

[0037] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the annular groove 201 is a "C" shape, a "V" shape, a "U" shape, or a "凵" shape. Figure 3 The cross-sectional shape of the annular groove 201 is a “V”-shaped structure.

[0038] In this embodiment, the gap size between the inner walls of the adjacent ends of the two wheel seats 1 and the outer wall of the guide wheel 2 is smaller than a predetermined value. The predetermined value can be set according to the diameter of the electrode wire. The existing electrode wire diameter is generally between 0.1-0.3mm, so the gap size between the inner walls of the adjacent ends of the two wheel seats 1 and the outer wall of the guide wheel 2 can be made ≤0.1mm.

[0039] The wire threading success rate can be further improved by making the gap size smaller than the diameter of the electrode wire.

[0040] like Figure 1 The wire-cut wire-threading transition guide device shown further includes: a bearing 4 , and the guide wheel 2 is mounted on the wheel seat 1 via the bearing 4 .

[0041] The guide wheel 2 extends with rotating shafts at both ends, as Figure 3 shown, a thrust ball bearing and a deep groove ball bearing are respectively installed at both ends of the guide wheel 2.

[0042] As Figure 1 and 2 shown, several through holes 102 are further provided on the side wall of the wheel seat 1, and the through holes 102 are arranged in a circumferential equal division around the central axis of the wheel seat 1.

[0043] In a second aspect, the lower head of the wire cutting machine tool includes: a wire threading base 5, and the wire cutting wire threading transition guiding device described in the first aspect.

[0044] The wheel seat 1 and the deflector block 3 of the wire cutting wire threading transition guiding device are installed on the wire threading base 5.

[0045] The lower head is installed below the upper head of the wire cutting machine tool. The upper head is provided with a wire feeding device. The top end of the wire threading base 5 is provided with a wire feeding-in device, and one side is provided with a wire feeding-out device. The wire feeding-in device is arranged below the wire feeding device, and the deflector channel communicates the wire feeding-in device and the wire feeding-out device.

[0046] Working method: The electrode wire is molybdenum wire or copper wire. During the process of the wire feeding device feeding the electrode wire, the electrode wire sequentially passes through the wire feeding-in device of the wire threading base 5, the deflector channel of the transition guiding device, and the wire feeding-out device of the wire threading base 5. When the electrode wire passes through the deflector channel of the transition guiding device, a laterally closed deflector channel is enclosed by the connection of the deflector block 3, the wheel seat 1 and the guide wheel 2, which can limit the four sides of the electrode wire during wire threading, greatly improving the wire threading success rate.

[0047] When wire cutting work is carried out using the electrode wire, the electrode wire is pulled in, so that a part of the electrode wire in the deflector channel enters into the annular groove 201 of the guide wheel 2. During the movement of the electrode wire, the guide wheel 2 rotates accordingly, reducing the wear between the electrode wire and the guide wheel 2.

[0048] As described above, although the present invention has been shown and described with reference to specific preferred embodiments, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention itself. Various changes can be made in its form and details without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention defined by the appended claims.
