Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lathe cooling technology, and more specifically, to a lathe cooling device. Background Technology

[0002] A lathe is a machine tool that uses a cutting tool to machine rotating workpieces. Lathes are the most important type of metal cutting machine tool, and are the most numerous and prevalent in general machine manufacturing plants; they are also known as "mother machines." Lathes can also be used to perform various machining operations using drills, reamers, taps, dies, and knurling tools.

[0003] During the cutting process, the cutting tool gradually heats up, so a cooling device is usually installed inside the lathe. Existing lathe cooling devices are typically cooling water pipes installed within the lathe, requiring manual adjustment of the cooling position. However, when applying different machining scenarios, tool changes are necessary, and the corresponding cutting point changes with each tool change. This necessitates manual adjustment of the cooling position accordingly, which is inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a lathe cooling device that solves the problem of inconvenience caused by the need for manual adjustment of the cooling position inside the lathe when changing or adjusting cutting tools.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, a lathe cooling device is proposed, comprising: a lathe body, an electric lead screw and a first guide rail, wherein the lathe body is capable of driving the electric lead screw to rotate;

[0006] A sliding seat is slidably disposed on the first guide rail and is provided with a first threaded hole adapted to the electric lead screw. The sliding seat is provided with a second guide rail, which is perpendicular to the first guide rail.

[0007] A tool holder is slidably mounted on the second guide rail. The tool holder is equipped with a tool support. The tool holder is used to drive the tool support to rotate, and the tool support is used to fix the tool.

[0008] A moving mechanism is provided on the sliding seat, and the moving mechanism is used to drive the mounting seat to move;

[0009] The mounting base is fixed with a nozzle and a detection mechanism. The nozzle is connected to a coolant source, and the detection mechanism is electrically connected to the moving mechanism. The detection mechanism is used to detect the tools on the tool holder.

[0010] In any of the above technical solutions, the moving mechanism further includes:

[0011] A support frame is fixed to the sliding seat and extends to the upper side of the tool holder;

[0012] The guide rod is fixedly mounted on the support frame;

[0013] The lead screw is rotatably mounted on the support frame.

[0014] The mounting base is provided with a guide hole and a second threaded hole that are respectively adapted to the guide rod and the rotating lead screw;

[0015] A drive motor is mounted on the support frame and connected to the rotating lead screw.

[0016] In any of the above technical solutions, further comprising:

[0017] The third guide rail is mounted on the lathe body and is arranged parallel to the first guide rail. The support frame is provided with a snap-fit ​​part, which snaps onto the third guide rail.

[0018] In any of the above technical solutions, the mounting base is further provided with an extension portion, the extension portion extending to one side of the tool holder, and the detection mechanism is a proximity sensor, the proximity sensor being disposed toward the tool holder.

[0019] In any of the above technical solutions, the extension portion is further provided with an arc-shaped groove and a fixing hole, the fixing hole is concentric with the center of the arc-shaped groove, the fixing hole is provided with a first support member, the arc-shaped groove is provided with a second support member, and the nozzle is provided with the first support member and the second support member.

[0020] The beneficial effects are:

[0021] 1. The lathe cooling device of this utility model drives the sliding seat to adjust its position in the left and right directions through the electric lead screw and the first guide rail on the lathe body, and adjusts the position of the tool holder in the front and back directions through the second guide rail on the sliding seat, which facilitates the processing of target parts of various positions and diameters. At the same time, multiple tools are fixed through the tool holder on the tool holder, which facilitates automatic or manual switching of tools. The detection mechanism is set on the side of the tool on the corresponding tool holder, which facilitates the detection mechanism to detect the presence or absence of the tool.

[0022] 2. In use, the lathe cooling device of this utility model detects the position of the tool through a detection mechanism. After the tool is switched, the moving mechanism is first controlled to move the mounting base forward to the position where the tool is cutting or to the position closest to the tool holder. Then, the moving mechanism is activated in reverse and the detection mechanism is activated. When the detection signal of the detection mechanism changes from a present detection signal to a disappearance detection signal, or from a non-existent detection signal to a detected signal, it indicates that the detection mechanism has moved to the edge position of the switched tool. This edge position is also the cutting position between the switched tool and the target workpiece. It also indicates that the nozzle on the mounting base is aligned with this edge position, which facilitates automatic adjustment of the cooling position and makes it easy to use.
