[0025] See also Figure 1-5 A gantry engraving and milling machine with a chain chip conveyor includes a machine platform 1 and a processing device 11 arranged above the machine platform 1. The machine platform 1 is provided with a chip removal device 2 for cleaning waste chips on the machine platform 1. The chip removal device 2 includes a chain plate 21 for carrying waste chips and a driving device 22 for driving the chain plate 21 to move. The chain plate 21 is tilted from one side to the other side on the machine platform 1. The chain plate can discharge waste chips without being restricted by size, so that the waste chips will not accumulate inside the machine tool, and the discharge efficiency is higher than that using a auger chain plate.
[0026] In some embodiments: the driving device 22 includes a motor 23, one side of the motor 23 is connected to an active roller 24 through a driving shaft, a first driven roller 25 is provided under the chain plate 21, the active roller 24 and the first driven roller 25 are connected by a belt transmission, a second driven roller 26 is provided under the chain plate 21, the first driven roller 25 is connected to the second driven roller 26 through the chain plate 21, a chip discharge port 12 is provided on one side of the machine 1, a shovel plate 13 for shoveling waste chips on the chain plate 21 is provided inside the chip discharge port 12, a collection box 14 for collecting cutting fluid is provided inside the machine 1, a drain pipe 15 that can be connected to an external water pipe is provided at the bottom of the collection box 14, the bottom plate of the collection box 14 is inclined, and the drain pipe 15 is located at the lower end of the bottom plate of the collection box 14;
[0027] When cleaning the waste chips, push the waste chips on the machine 1 onto the chain plate 21. When the waste chips are pushed onto the chain plate 21, start the motor 23. After the motor 23 is started, it drives the active roller 24 to rotate. After the active roller 24 rotates, it drives the first driven roller 25 to rotate together through the belt. After the first driven roller 25 rotates, it will start to move with the chain plate 21. After the chain plate 21 moves, it will start to move with the waste chips toward the chip discharge port 12. When the waste chips move to the vicinity of the chip discharge port 12, the shovel plate 13 will shovel the waste chips on the chain plate 21. To prevent the waste chips from continuing to move with the chain plate 21, the user can clean the waste chips on the shovel plate 13 through the chip discharge port 12 after the waste chips are shoveled, so as to prevent the waste chips from accumulating on the shovel plate 13. At the same time, because cutting fluid is used to cool down during processing, the sprayed cutting fluid will fall onto the collection box 14 through the chain plate 21, and the bottom of the collection box 14 is inclined, so that the cutting fluid in the collection box 14 will flow into the drain pipe 15, and the drain pipe 15 is connected to the external liquid storage tank, so that the cutting fluid can be reused.
[0028] In some embodiments, a gantry 3 is provided above the machine 1, a mounting slot 31 is provided on the outer side of the gantry 3, an X-axis moving device 32 for driving the processing device 11 to move along the X-axis direction is installed inside the mounting slot 31, a workbench 16 is provided on the machine 1, a chain plate 21 is located below the workbench 16, a Y-axis moving device 17 for driving the workbench 16 to move along the Y-axis direction is provided on the machine 1, a chip removal channel 18 for waste chips to pass through is provided below the Y-axis moving device 17, a moving seat 33 is installed on one side of the processing device 11, the moving seat 33 is slidably connected to the gantry 3, and a Z-axis moving device 34 for driving the processing device 11 to move along the Z-axis is installed inside the moving seat 33;
[0029] During the processing, after the X-axis moving device 32 is started, it will drive the moving seat 33 to move along the X-axis direction. After the moving seat 33 moves, it will move with the processing device 11, so that the processing device 11 can meet the processing requirements in the X-axis direction. After the Y-axis moving device 17 is started, it will drive the workbench 16 to move along the Y direction, so that the workbench 16 and the processing device 11 can achieve relative movement, allowing the processing device 11 to complete the Y-axis processing requirements. After the Z-axis moving device 34 is started, it will move the processing device 11 along the Z-axis, so that the processing device 11 can process along the Z-axis direction.
