[0028] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides a piping assembly for a machining center. The piping assembly includes a vertical support 10, multiple transport pipes 20, a first cable tray 30, a fixing plate 40, and multiple hanging pipes 50. The vertical support 10 has a frame structure. The multiple transport pipes 20 are arranged side by side and fixed to the vertical support 10. Each of the multiple transport pipes 20 extends from the bottom to the top of the vertical support 10. The multiple transport pipes 20 include a first transport pipe 21 for transporting water, a second transport pipe 22 for transporting oil, and a third transport pipe 23 for transporting gas. The first cable tray 30 is disposed outside the vertical support 10 and fixedly connected to the vertical support 10. The cable tray 30 extends to the top of the vertical support 10 to accommodate the cable; the fixing plate 40 is installed on the top of the vertical support 10, and one end of the multiple transport pipes 20 extending to the top of the vertical support 10 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 40; multiple hanging pipes 50 are arranged outside the vertical support 10, and one end of the multiple hanging pipes 50 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 40. At the same time, the ends of the multiple transport pipes 20 fixedly connected to the fixing plate 40 and the ends of some hanging pipes 50 fixedly connected to the fixing plate 40 are correspondingly connected to each other, so that some hanging pipes 50 receive the medium transmitted by the transport pipes 20, and the cable in the first cable tray 30 also passes through the fixing plate 40 and extends to another part of the hanging pipes 50.
[0029] Specifically, the vertical support 10 has a frame structure, providing support and maintaining the stability of the overall structure. The vertical design also saves floor space. The vertical support 10 houses multiple transport pipes 20, which are arranged side-by-side on the vertical support 10. Since the transport pipes 20 are used to transport media, in this application, all transport pipes 20 extend from the bottom to the top of the vertical support 10. The media generated by the media generating mechanism collects at the end of the transport pipe 20 located at the bottom of the vertical support 10 and is then transported to the top of the vertical support 10, and then from the top of the vertical support 10 to the machine tool of the machining center. The media include water, electricity, and gas. The first transport pipe 21 of the transport pipes 20 is used to transport water, the second transport pipe 22 is used to transport oil, and the third transport pipe 23 is used to transport gas. Water, oil, and gas are all media necessary for the operation of the machining center.
[0030] Meanwhile, the cables in the electrical box 6 are collected through the first cable tray 30, and the collected cables are then passed to the top of the vertical support 10 through the first cable tray 30. The first cable tray 30 connects the electrical box 6 and the vertical support 10 and is used to accommodate the cables. At this time, the first cable tray 30 is located outside the vertical support 10. In order to ensure structural stability, the first cable tray 30 is fixedly connected to the vertical support 10.
[0031] In addition, a fixing plate 40 is installed on the top of the vertical support 10. The fixing plate 40 and the transport pipe 20 extend to one end of the top of the vertical support 10 and are connected. The fixing plate 40 serves to receive and transfer the medium, which can be done through the hanging pipe 50. Multiple hanging pipes 50 are located outside the vertical support 10, and one end of the hanging pipe 50 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 40. The ends of some hanging pipes 50 that are fixedly connected to the fixing plate 40 are correspondingly connected to the ends of multiple transport pipes 20 that are fixedly connected to the fixing plate 40, so that the part of the hanging pipe 50 receives the medium transmitted by the transport pipe 20, while the other part of the hanging pipe 50 is used to accommodate the cable passing through the fixing plate 40, thereby realizing the transfer of the medium and the cable respectively.
[0032] The main structure of the pipeline assembly in this application is a vertical support 10. The vertical support 10 is designed to collect water, oil, and gas transport pipes 20 and cables. The transport pipes 20 are used to transport the water, oil, and gas required by the machining center. The cables are integrated through the first cable tray 30. The water, oil, gas, and cables are transmitted to the machine tool of the machining center through the hanging pipe 50. This achieves a highly integrated structure of electrical, water, oil, and gas pipelines. The layout is compact, the footprint is small, the manufacturing cost is low, and all pipelines can be visually inspected during later inspection and maintenance. In case of failure, the corresponding pipeline can be directly replaced, which is convenient and quick.
[0033] Please continue reading. Figure 1 and Figure 2The piping assembly also includes multiple pipe clamps 60, which are vertically spaced and fixedly connected to the vertical support 10. Each pipe clamp 60 has through holes, through which the transport pipe 20 passes and is fixedly connected. Specifically, the number of pipe clamps 60 can be one, two, three, or more, and they are vertically spaced and fixed to the vertical support 10. The number of through holes on the pipe clamps 60 is matched to the number of transport pipes 20, and the transport pipe 20 passes through these through holes to be fixedly connected to the pipe clamps 60. The design of the pipe clamps 60 facilitates the arrangement of the transport pipes 20.
[0034] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The fixing plate 40 is detachably connected to the vertical bracket 10. Specifically, when it is necessary to replace components, the fixing plate 40 can be removed to facilitate component replacement and maintenance.
[0035] Please continue reading. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The transport pipe 20 includes a first pipe section 24 and a second pipe section 25 that are interconnected. The first pipe section 24 extends from the bottom of the vertical support 10 to the top of the vertical frame. The second pipe section 25 is located at the top of the vertical support 10, with one end connected to the first pipe section 24 and the other end connected to the fixing plate 40. The second pipe section 25 is inclined relative to the first pipe section 24. Specifically, the first pipe section 24 is vertically arranged, extending from the bottom to the top of the vertical support 10, while the second pipe section 25 is inclined and located at the top of the vertical support 10. The first pipe section 24 and the second pipe section 25 are connected. Of course, in other embodiments, the first pipe section 24 can also be inclined and the second pipe section 25 can be vertically arranged.
[0036] In one embodiment, the transport pipe 20 is a steel pipe. Specifically, steel pipes have good strength, and using steel pipes as the transport pipe 20 can meet the usage requirements.
[0037] Please see Figure 4 The fixing plate 40 is provided with a first through hole 41. The pipeline assembly also includes a connector that passes through the first through hole 41 and connects the transport pipe 20 and the hanging pipe 50. Specifically, the connector is placed in the first through hole 41, one end of the connector is connected to the transport pipe 20 and the other end is connected to the hanging pipe 50, so as to transfer the medium in the transport pipe 20 to the hanging pipe 50.
[0038] Please continue reading. Figure 3 and Figure 4The fixing plate 40 is provided with a second through hole 42. The cable in the first cable tray 30 passes through the second through hole 42 and extends into the hanging pipe 50. Specifically, the first cable tray 30 contains various cables. The cables are organized through the second through hole 42 so that the cables in the first cable tray 30 pass through the second through hole 42 and are then connected to the column cable tray 8 or the spindle box cable tray 7 of the machining center, respectively. The column cable tray 8 and the spindle box cable tray 7 are used to connect to the cables in the electrical box 6.
[0039] To resolve the above technical issues, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 3 and Figure 5 This application also provides a machining center, which includes the piping assembly and air path mounting plate 2 as described in the above embodiments. The air path mounting plate 2 is located behind the vertical support 10 and below the fixing plate 40. Specifically, the air path mounting plate 2 includes components such as relays to control the air path in the machining center.
[0040] Please continue reading. Figure 1 The machining center also includes an oil pump 3, which is located on the first side of the vertical support 10. The oil pump 3 is connected to the transport pipe 20 and is used to supply oil to the machining center. Specifically, the oil pump 3 is connected to the second transport pipe 22 for transmitting oil, and transmits the oil required for machining operations to the machining center.
[0041] Please continue reading. Figure 1 The machining center also includes a hydraulic station 4 and a water chiller 5. The hydraulic station 4 is located adjacent to the second side of the vertical support 10, with the second side facing the first side. The water chiller 5 is located on the side of the hydraulic station 4 away from the vertical support 10. Specifically, both the hydraulic station 4 and the water chiller 5 are located on the second side of the vertical support 10, arranged in an orderly manner to save floor space.
[0042] The piping assembly in this application integrates a first cable tray 30 for organizing electrical wires and a hanging pipe 50, as well as transport pipes 20 and 50 for transmitting electricity, water, and oil. The layout is compact, occupies little space, and has low manufacturing costs. Installation is also convenient, especially during transportation and repositioning. The detachable fixing plate 40 can be directly removed, separating the machine tool body from the vertical support 10, facilitating transportation and repositioning of the machine tool. Furthermore, because all piping is integrated and easy to assemble and disassemble, repairs can be quickly performed in case of pipe failure, and corresponding pipes can be quickly replaced after a problem is identified, making the process simple and fast. In addition, the use of steel pipes fixed to the vertical support 10 ensures stable and secure piping, facilitates heat dissipation, and increases the service life of the transport pipe 20.
[0043] The above description is merely an embodiment of this application and does not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this application's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this application.
