[0002] Medium-speed wire EDM machines belong to the category of reciprocating high-speed wire EDM machines. They achieve multiple cutting functions on high-speed reciprocating wire EDM machines and are commonly known as "medium-speed wire EDM". The term "medium-speed wire EDM" does not mean that the wire speed is between high-speed and low-speed. Rather, it refers to a composite wire EDM machine. The wire feeding principle is to use high-speed (8-12mm / s) wire feeding during roughing and low-speed (1-3mm / s) wire feeding during finishing. This results in relatively stable operation, less vibration, and reduces errors caused by material deformation and molybdenum wire wear through multiple cuts, thus improving the machining quality. The machining quality can be between that of high-speed and low-speed wire EDM machines.

[0023] refer to Figure 3 The inner side of the horizontal pipe 16 is connected to the nozzle 17, and the inner side of the nozzle 17 extends into the interior of the box 4. The water inlet end of the water tank 13 is threadedly connected to the sealing block 18, and the left side of the water tank 13 is fixedly connected to the collection box 19.

[0024] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the nozzle 17 can spray and clean the electrode wire 2, the sealing block 18 can seal the water tank 13 and prevent debris and dust from entering the water tank 13, and the collection box 19 can collect the wastewater after cleaning.

[0025] refer to Figure 3 The bottom of the brush roller 5 and the water absorption roller 8 are both fitted with bottom blocks 20.

The top of the bracket 3 is fixedly connected with a fixing frame 22, and the bottom of the fixing frame 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the box body 4.

[0026] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the position of the brush roller 5 and the water-absorbing roller 8 can be limited by the setting of the bottom block 20, the position of the bottom block 20, the brush roller 5 and the water-absorbing roller 8 can be limited by the setting of the movable groove 21, and the position of the box body 4 can be fixed by the setting of the fixing frame 22 to prevent the fixing frame 22 from falling off the bracket 3.

[0027] refer to Figure 5 A support block 23 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 13. The front of the support block 23 is fixedly connected to the back of the machine tool 1. A control valve 24 is connected to the bottom of the back of the collection box 19.

[0028] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the support block 23 can limit the position of the water tank 13 and the collection box 19 to prevent the water tank 13 and the collection box 19 from falling off the machine tool 1. The control valve 24 can facilitate the discharge of wastewater inside the collection box 19.

[0029] refer to Figure 3 The bottom front of the box 4 is connected to a drainage pipe 25, and the output end of the drainage pipe 25 extends into the inside of the collection box 19. The top of the box 4 is fixedly connected to a protective shell 26, and the front of the electric push rod 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective shell 26.

[0030] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the wastewater inside the box 4 can be diverted to the collection box 19 by the setting of the drainage pipe 25, and the wastewater can be collected. The protective shell 26 can protect the gear 10, the tooth plate 11 and the electric push rod 12, and reduce the contact friction between the bracket 3 and the gear 10, the tooth plate 11 and the electric push rod 12.

The bolts can fix the positions of the filter screen 29 and the frame 27 to prevent the filter screen 29 and the frame 27 from detaching from the box 4.

[0035] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: During use, the user rotates the sealing block 18 counterclockwise to detach it from the water tank 13. Then, the user pours the cleaning solution into the water tank 13. At this time, the user starts the water pump 14 and the electric push rod 12. The output of the water pump 14 delivers the cleaning solution from the water tank 13 to the connecting pipe 15 and the horizontal pipe 16. Then, the nozzle 17 sprays and cleans the waste debris from the electrode wire 2 inside the box 4. The cleaned waste liquid is then drained through the drainage pipe 25 into the collection tank 19 for collection. Simultaneously, the output of the electric push rod 12 pushes the toothed plate 11 backward. The backward movement of the toothed plate 11 drives the gear 10 and the first support block... The first support block 6 and the second support block 9 rotate counterclockwise around the movable groove 21. The first support block 6 and the second support block 9 drive the brush roller 5, the water absorption roller 8 and the bottom block 20 to rotate, so that the surfaces of the brush roller 5 and the water absorption roller 8 come into contact with the surface of the electrode wire 2. At the same time, the machine tool 1 and the motor 7 are started. After the machine tool 1 is started, it drives the electrode wire 2 to move. At this time, the output end of the motor 7 drives the brush roller 5 to rotate, so that the rotating brush roller 5 cleans the moving electrode wire 2. After cleaning, the water absorption roller 8 absorbs the moisture on the surface of the electrode wire 2. At this time, the fan 28 is started, so that the fan 28 blows air on the electrode wire 2 inside the box 4, so that the moisture on the surface of the electrode wire 2 can be dried quickly. At this time, the electrode wire 2 of the machine tool 1 can be cleaned.

[0036] In summary, this easy-to-clean medium-speed wire EDM machine solves the problem that existing medium-speed wire EDM machines mostly require manual cleaning of the electrode wires during use. This is achieved through the coordinated use of the machine tool 1, electrode wire 2, support 3, housing 4, brush roller 5, first support block 6, motor 7, water suction roller 8, second support block 9, gear 10, toothed plate 11, electric push rod 12, water tank 13, water pump 14, connecting pipe 15, and horizontal pipe 16. The cleaning process is cumbersome and the electrode wires are easily damaged or broken during manual cleaning.
