Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of vertical milling machines, and in particular to a cleaning device for vertical milling machines. Background Technology

[0002] Vertical milling machines are a type of general-purpose milling machine with a wide range of applications. They utilize face cutters, end mills, cylindrical cutters, saw blade cutters, circular cutters, and various form cutters to machine a variety of parts. Suitable for machining planes, bevels, grooves, holes, etc., they are ideal processing equipment for industries such as machinery manufacturing, mold making, instrumentation, automotive, and motorcycle manufacturing. Due to their sufficient power and rigidity, as well as a wide speed range, vertical milling machines can fully utilize carbide cutting tools for high-speed cutting.

[0003] Existing vertical milling machines have certain drawbacks. When the milling cutter processes the workpiece, the high-speed rotating milling head and related components generate a large amount of fine dust and large debris, which falls onto the worktable or its outer edge, seriously affecting the cleanliness of the working environment. Furthermore, cleaning up the large amount of workpiece debris is troublesome, requiring operators to manually remove the debris with a hand brush, wasting time. Therefore, to solve the above problems, this application provides a cleaning device for vertical milling machines. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problem that manual cleaning by workers is cumbersome and time-consuming, this application provides a cleaning device for vertical milling machines.

[0005] This application provides a cleaning device for a vertical milling machine, including a base. A worktable is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base. Several fixed plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer surface of the worktable, and the fixed plates are symmetrically distributed around the worktable. Two reciprocating screws are rotatably connected to the outer wall of the worktable through the fixed plates, and the reciprocating screws extend to the outside of the fixed plates. A moving block is threaded to one side of the outer wall of each reciprocating screw. A connecting plate is slidably connected to the upper surface of the worktable through the two moving blocks, and several scrapers are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the connecting plate.

[0006] Preferably, the side surface of the worktable is rotatably connected to a drive wheel via a reciprocating lead screw on one side, and the side surface of the worktable is rotatably connected to a driven wheel via a reciprocating lead screw on the other side. The drive wheel and the driven wheel are connected by a belt for transmission.

[0007] Preferably, a servo motor is fixedly connected to the side surface of the worktable via a fixing plate, and the drive end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to one side of the reciprocating lead screw.

[0008] Preferably, the upper surface of the workbench has openings on both sides, and the lower surface of the workbench is fixedly connected to a connecting box on the side corresponding to the opening.

[0009] Preferably, a collection box is slidably connected to the inside of the connecting box, and a handle is fixedly connected to the outside of the collection box.

[0010] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:

[0011] The servo motor drives the reciprocating lead screw to rotate. Since the driving wheel and driven wheel are connected by a belt, and the driving wheel and driven wheel are connected to two reciprocating lead screws respectively, the reciprocating lead screws on both sides can rotate simultaneously. The moving blocks on both sides are connected to the connecting plate. The simultaneous rotation of the reciprocating lead screws on both sides drives several scrapers to move back and forth, pushing the debris inside the groove towards the opening. Compared with the existing technology, it has a significant effect on improving the cleaning speed of vertical milling machines. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 - Figure 4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0018] Example 1

[0019] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution for a cleaning device for a vertical milling machine:

[0020] A cleaning device for a vertical milling machine. Figures 1-4The system includes a base 1, a worktable 3 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 1, and several fixed plates 5 fixedly connected to both sides of the outer surface of the worktable 3. The fixed plates 5 are symmetrically distributed around the worktable 3. Two reciprocating screws 6 are rotatably connected to the outer wall of the worktable 3 through the fixed plates 5. The reciprocating screws 6 extend to the outside of the fixed plates 5. The two reciprocating screws 6 are respectively installed on both sides of the outer wall of the worktable 3 through the fixed plates 5. The reciprocating screws of the fixed plates 5 are screws that can make the slider reciprocate without changing the rotation direction of the main shaft. The fixed plate 5 is a form of three-dimensional cam pair, which is represented by two threaded grooves with the same pitch but opposite directions of rotation, connected at both ends by transition curves. The rotation of the fixed plate 5 causes the side of the spiral groove to push the slider placed in the spiral groove to make axial reciprocating motion. The outer wall of the reciprocating screw 6 is threaded with a moving block 14. The upper surface of the worktable 3 is slidably connected to the connecting plate 2 through two moving blocks 14. Several scrapers 13 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the connecting plate 2. The moving blocks 14 on both sides are connected to the connecting plate 2, so that the reciprocating screw 6 on both sides rotates at the same time. The reciprocating screw 6 is threadedly connected to the moving blocks 14, so that the connecting plate 2 is driven to move back and forth along the outer wall of the worktable 3. Several scrapers 13 installed at the bottom of the connecting plate 2 fit into several grooves opened at the top of the worktable 3, so that several scrapers 13 move back and forth to push the debris inside the grooves to both sides, achieving the effect of facilitating the left and right reciprocating movement of several scrapers 13 to clean the debris.

[0021] Furthermore, a drive wheel 10 is rotatably connected to the side surface of the worktable 3 via a reciprocating screw 6 on one side, and a driven wheel 12 is rotatably connected to the side surface of the worktable 3 via a reciprocating screw 6 on the other side. The drive wheel 10 and the driven wheel 12 are connected by a belt 11. The belt 11 connects the drive wheel 10 and the driven wheel 12, and the drive wheel 10 and the driven wheel 12 are respectively connected to the two reciprocating screws 6, so that the reciprocating screws 6 on both sides can rotate simultaneously, achieving the effect of facilitating the simultaneous rotation of the reciprocating screws 6 on both sides.

[0022] Furthermore, a servo motor 4 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the worktable 3 via a fixing plate 5. The drive end of the servo motor 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the reciprocating lead screw 6. The servo motor 4 drives the reciprocating lead screw 6 to rotate through the drive end of the servo motor 4. The servo motor 4 is preferably of the HBS57 type.

[0023] Furthermore, openings 9 are provided on both sides of the upper surface of the workbench 3, and connecting boxes 7 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the workbench 3 on the side corresponding to the openings 9. The openings 9 on both sides of the top of the workbench 3 are connected to the connecting boxes 7, and the openings 9 are connected to several grooves on the top of the workbench 3. Then, by driving the reciprocating screws 6 on both sides to rotate simultaneously, the scrapers 13 at the bottom of several connecting plates 2 are driven to move back and forth, pushing the debris inside the grooves into the openings 9 on both sides, so that the debris falls into the connecting boxes 7 for collection through the openings 9.

[0024] Furthermore, a collection box 8 is slidably connected to the inside of the connecting box 7, and a handle 15 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the collection box 8. The collection box 8 is connected to the handle 15, and the size of the collection box 8 matches the size of the connecting box 7, so that the debris that falls into the connecting box 7 from the opening 9 is collected by the collection box 8.

[0025] The implementation principle of the cleaning device for a vertical milling machine according to this application embodiment is as follows: When the device is in use, firstly, the servo motor 4 drives the reciprocating lead screw 6 to rotate. Since the driving wheel 10 and the driven wheel 12 are connected by a belt 11, and the driving wheel 10 and the driven wheel 12 are respectively connected to the two reciprocating lead screws 6, the reciprocating lead screws 6 on both sides can rotate simultaneously. The moving blocks 14 on both sides are connected to the connecting plate 2. The simultaneous rotation of the reciprocating lead screws 6 on both sides drives several scrapers 13 to move back and forth, pushing the debris inside the groove to both sides. The openings 9 on both sides of the top of the worktable 3 are connected to the connecting box 7, so that the debris falling into the connecting box 7 from the openings 9 is collected by the collection box 8.

[0026] The foregoing description, with reference to preferred embodiments, illustrates an exemplary implementation of a cleaning device for a vertical milling machine provided by this disclosure. However, those skilled in the art will understand that various modifications and alterations can be made to the above specific embodiments without departing from the spirit of this disclosure, and various combinations can be made to the various technical features and structures proposed in this disclosure without exceeding the protection scope of this disclosure, the protection scope of which is determined by the appended claims.
