Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum alloy technology, specifically a cooling device for CNC machining of aluminum alloys. Background Technology

[0002] Aluminum alloys are alloys based on aluminum with the addition of certain amounts of other alloying elements, and are one of the lightweight metal materials. Aluminum alloys possess the general properties of aluminum, while the addition of alloying elements significantly improves their physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. During CNC machining of aluminum alloys, cooling devices are required to cool the cutting tools and the aluminum alloy on the CNC machining equipment, thereby improving the tool life and the quality of the aluminum alloy.

[0003] Traditional cooling devices may employ simple nozzle or cooling pipe layouts. For example, some processing plants use single-nozzle cooling devices to cool aluminum alloys. In this case, the nozzle can only cool a localized area of ​​the aluminum alloy surface; areas closer to the nozzle cool faster than areas farther away, resulting in uneven surface cooling and reduced cooling efficiency. Furthermore, traditional cooling devices are inconvenient to disassemble, inspect, and replace, leading to a shorter lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0025] A cooling device for CNC machining of aluminum alloy includes a base plate 1, a cooling groove 2 installed at the top center of the base plate 1, a movable groove 4 opened at the back end of the top of the cooling groove 2, an electric telescopic rod 3 installed above the back end of one side of the cooling groove 2, a movable block 5 fixedly connected to the output end of the electric telescopic rod 3 that passes through the inside of the movable groove 4, the movable block 5 being slidably connected to the inside of the movable groove 4, a support seat 8 provided at the top of the movable block 5, a fixing groove 7 opened at the bottom of the support seat 8, a fixing block 6 being snapped into the inside of the fixing groove 7, and the fixing block 6 being fixedly installed on the top of the movable block 5.

A suction pipe 13 is installed on one side of the cooling water pump 10, and one end of the suction pipe 13 extends into the cooling water tank 14. The top of the cooling water tank 14 is provided with a water inlet for easy addition of cooling water.

[0027] The cooling water tank 14 is located inside the enclosure at the other end of the top of the mounting plate 9. The cooling water pump 10 has clamping plates on both sides below it, and the bottom of the clamping plates is fixed to the mounting plate 9. The output end of the cooling water pump 10 is threaded to the connecting pipe 11, the connecting pipe 11 is threaded to the nozzle 12, and the cooling water pump 10 is threaded to the suction pipe 13.

[0028] This utility model incorporates components such as a cooling tank 2, an electric telescopic rod 3, a moving groove 4, a moving block 5, a fixed block 6, a fixed groove 7, a support base 8, a mounting plate 9, a cooling water pump 10, a connecting pipe 11, a nozzle 12, a suction pipe 13, and a cooling water tank 14. This design facilitates uniform left-right movement of the cooling device, improving the cooling efficiency of the aluminum alloy surface and the cutting tools on the CNC machining equipment. Simultaneously, it ensures uniform temperature variation across the entire surface machining area of ​​the aluminum alloy, resulting in more stable and precise dimensions of the machined aluminum alloy parts. Furthermore, it facilitates disassembly, inspection, and replacement of the cooling device, enabling regular maintenance and extending its service life.

[0029] Furthermore, by activating the electric telescopic rod 3, its output end drives the moving block 5 to move left and right at a uniform speed within the moving slot 4, so that the moving block 5 drives the cooling device on the mounting plate 9 to move at a uniform speed. At the same time, the cooling water pump 10 is also activated, so that the cooling water in the cooling water tank 14 enters the suction pipe 13 and is sprayed into the aluminum alloy and CNC machining tool through the nozzle 12 on the connecting pipe 11. This facilitates the cooling and temperature reduction of the aluminum alloy machining parts and CNC tools, thereby improving the quality of aluminum alloy machining and the service life of CNC tools, and reducing losses.

A groove seat 17 for hooking the hand is fixedly installed at the center of the outer side of the card holder 16.

[0033] Furthermore, by manually picking up the groove seat 17, the holder 16 can be moved upwards to remove itself from the slot 15. Conversely, by operating downwards, the holder 16 can be installed into the slot 15. Then, the aluminum alloy to be CNC machined is placed on the placement plate 18, and the clamping cylinder 19 is activated so that its output end drives the clamping plate 20 to clamp and fix the periphery of the aluminum alloy, thereby improving the stability of the aluminum alloy during machining.

[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
