Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of lubrication of automated equipment, and in particular to a self-contained solid lubrication device for a silicon core processing and cutting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Silicon core processing and cutting machines are critical equipment in the silicon core processing process, and their normal operation is essential for ensuring silicon core processing quality and production efficiency. In existing silicon core processing and cutting machines, machine tool guideway oil is typically used for lubrication. However, this traditional lubrication method has a series of serious problems, including:

[0003] First, machine tool guide rail oil has high fluidity. When the guide rail oil is added to the guide rail of the cutting machine, due to gravity and vibration during equipment operation, the guide rail oil easily flows into the bottom of the equipment. In silicon core cutting machines, there is a circulating water system at the bottom of the equipment for cooling and dust suppression. After the guide rail oil flows into the circulating water, it will cause the circulating water to become contaminated. On the one hand, the contaminated circulating water can no longer effectively perform its function of cooling and dust suppression, affecting the normal operating environment of the equipment; on the other hand, the contaminated circulating water may have adverse effects on subsequent production processes, such as contaminating raw materials.

[0004] Second, during the operation of the silicon core cutting machine, circulating water is needed for cooling and dust suppression. This exposes the guide rails to a water-erosion environment. Under these conditions, the guide rail oil, due to its high fluidity, cannot form a durable and effective lubrication and protective layer on the guide rail surface. Under the combined influence of water vapor and insufficient lubrication, the guide rail surface is prone to corrosion. After corrosion, the flatness and smoothness of the guide rail surface will be damaged, causing the slider to run poorly on the guide rail. Furthermore, the balls in the slider may dislodge from the guide rail due to increased running resistance, ultimately causing the wire mesh table of the equipment to fall off the track, seriously affecting the normal operation of the equipment, increasing the failure rate of the equipment, reducing production efficiency, and causing economic losses to the enterprise.

[0005] Third, due to the aforementioned problems with the guide rail oil lubrication method, frequent lubrication and maintenance are often required to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. During lubrication and maintenance, operators need to enter the slippery equipment to work at heights and lubricate the guide rails and sliders. This manual lubrication method not only poses a high safety risk, which can easily lead to accidents such as operators slipping and falling, but also has a cumbersome operation process that consumes a lot of manpower and time, increasing the company's labor costs and equipment maintenance costs.

[0006] In summary, the existing lubrication methods of silicon core processing and cutting machines have many shortcomings, and there is an urgent need for a new lubrication device and method to solve these problems, improve the operating efficiency and stability of the equipment, reduce the failure rate and maintenance costs, and reduce environmental pollution. Utility Model Content

[0007] To address the shortcomings of the aforementioned background technology, this utility model proposes a self-contained solid lubrication device for silicon core processing and cutting machines. This solves the problems of guide rail oil causing both circulating water contamination and raw material contamination; guide rail oil's high fluidity preventing the formation of a durable and effective lubrication and protective layer on the guide rail surface, leading to easy corrosion under the combined effects of moisture and insufficient lubrication; and the high safety risks associated with manual lubrication, such as operator slips and falls, coupled with its cumbersome operation, high manpower and time consumption, and increased labor and equipment maintenance costs for enterprises.

[0008] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: A self-contained solid lubrication device for a silicon core processing and cutting machine includes a frame, characterized in that: a track is provided on the frame, a slider is slidably fitted on the track, and a drive component is connected to the slider; a solid grease supply component is provided on the frame, the output end of the solid grease supply component is connected to the slider via a retractable conveying pipe, and the inner wall of the slider is provided with a plurality of oil outlets corresponding to the track, and the plurality of oil outlets are connected to the retractable conveying pipe.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the drive assembly includes a drive motor mounted on the frame and a drive screw rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame. The drive screw is engaged with a sliding thread and is inserted into the input end of the drive motor.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the solid grease supply assembly includes two sets of fixed frames on the frame, each set of fixed frames having a placement cylinder containing a grease pack body, and an oil pressure assembly on the upper side of the placement cylinder; the frame contains two sets of grease adapters, and input pipes are respectively provided between the two sets of fixed frames and the two sets of grease adapters; a retractable delivery pipe is provided between the slider and the adapters.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the oil pressure assembly includes two sets of telescopic rods fixed on the frame, and the extended ends of the two sets of telescopic rods are connected to pressure plates corresponding to the placement cylinder.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the frame is equipped with a fixing clip corresponding to the input pipe.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the oil outlets on the inner wall of the slider are symmetrically and evenly arranged around the center of the track, and several oil outlets are also evenly arranged on the top of the inner wall of the slider.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment, the retractable delivery pipe is a corrugated flexible hose made of metal, with an anti-stick coating on its inner wall.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the inner wall of the placement cylinder is provided with a heating wire, which is electrically connected to the controller.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the pressure plate is provided with a rubber pad, and the bottom of the rubber pad is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0017] As a preferred embodiment, a flow regulating valve is provided at the input pipe.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] I. Eliminating Circulating Water Pollution: This utility model uses solid grease instead of traditional machine tool guideway oil. Solid grease has low fluidity, and through a unique supply device, it ensures that the grease will not flow into the circulating water at the bottom of the equipment. This fundamentally eliminates the pollution of circulating water by liquid lubricating oil, protects the water quality of the circulating water, and enables it to continuously and effectively play its role in cooling and dust reduction. At the same time, it avoids the pollution of raw materials in subsequent production processes, which is conducive to maintaining the cleanliness and stability of the entire production environment.

[0020] Second, it improves the lubrication effect of the guide rail. Solid grease can be evenly applied to the guide rail, forming a long-lasting and effective lubrication and protective layer on the guide rail surface. Compared with traditional guide rail oil, solid grease is not easily lost due to water vapor corrosion during equipment operation and its own fluidity problem. It can better protect the guide rail. Even when the guide rail is in a water vapor corrosion environment during the operation of the silicon core cutting machine, it can effectively prevent the guide rail from rusting, maintain the flatness and smoothness of the guide rail surface, and ensure that the slider runs smoothly on the guide rail.

[0021] The equipment failure rate is reduced because the guide rails are well lubricated and protected, avoiding problems such as poor slider operation and ball bearings falling out of the guide rails caused by guide rail corrosion. This significantly reduces the equipment failure rate, allows the equipment to operate more stably, reduces production interruptions caused by equipment failures, improves production efficiency, and provides strong support for the company's production and operation.

[0022] By adding solid grease to key lubrication points such as the lead screw and guide rail, the service life of the wire mesh table slider and lead screw has been significantly extended. For example, actual tests have shown that the service life of the wire mesh table slider and lead screw has been extended by as much as 4 months. This not only reduces the replacement frequency of key components and lowers equipment maintenance costs, but also further improves the overall performance and reliability of the equipment.

[0023] Third, the lubrication and maintenance operation is simplified. The solid grease supply device of this utility model adopts an automatic oil supply system. When the equipment lubrication and maintenance time reaches the set time, the supply system will start automatically and pressurize the solid grease into the lubrication point. There is no need for manual entry into the wet and slippery equipment to perform high-altitude operations to lubricate the equipment. This automated lubrication method greatly simplifies the lubrication and maintenance operation process and reduces the workload and complexity of manual operation.

[0024] It reduces the risks associated with manual operation. Since there is no need for personnel to enter the slippery and dangerous interior of the equipment for lubrication, it avoids safety accidents such as slipping and falling, effectively protects the personal safety of operators, and reduces the safety risks and potential labor costs for enterprises during equipment lubrication and maintenance.

[0048] Work process:

[0049] ①Preparation before startup: Remove the original guide rail oil supply device of the silicon core processing and cutting machine, install the solid grease pack supply device of this embodiment in the original position, and use the original guide rail oil pipeline for oil circuit installation, and install the solid grease pack body 10 in the placement cylinder 9.

[0050] ② Automatic lubrication process: When the equipment lubrication and maintenance time reaches the set time, the supply system starts automatically. During the start-up process, the telescopic rod 13 of the solid grease supply component begins to extend and retract, driving the pressure plate 14 to squeeze the grease pack body 10. The grease flows out from the placement cylinder 9, passes through the input pipe 12 (the flow regulating valve here can adjust the flow according to the setting), the grease adapter 11 and the telescopic delivery pipe 4 (due to the anti-stick coating on its inner wall, the grease is delivered smoothly), and finally is applied to the track 2 from the oil outlet 5 of the slider 3 (the oil outlet 5 is evenly set to ensure uniform lubrication). At the same time, if the ambient temperature is low and the grease needs to be heated, the controller can activate the heating wire on the inner wall of the placement cylinder 9 to reduce the viscosity of the grease and make it easier to squeeze out.

[0051] ③ Slider movement process: While solid grease lubricates the track 2, the drive motor 6 can be started according to the equipment operation requirements. The drive motor 6 drives the drive screw 7 to rotate. Since the drive screw 7 is threadedly engaged with the slider 3, the slider 3 achieves precise linear movement on the track 2, which meets the working requirements of the silicon core processing and cutting machine.
