Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of chain plate chip removal devices, specifically a chain plate chip removal device for CNC machine tools that prevents clogging. Background Technology
[0002] Chain plate chip conveyors are industrial conveying equipment mainly used to collect and transport various types of rolled, lumpy, and blocky chips. They are widely used in the processing operations of various machine tools, machining centers, and combination machine tools to discharge the chips generated during CNC machine tool processing.
[0003] Currently, some chain plate chip conveyors can move chips through the transmission of chain plates. However, when conveying chips, gaps may appear between adjacent chain plates at the turning points of the conveyor. If some chips remain on the surface of the chain plates, they may get stuck in the gaps between the two adjacent chain plates, which will increase the distance between the two chain plates and affect the flatness of the chain plate surface. This will affect the smoothness of the subsequent chain plates during conveying and the effectiveness of the chain plates in conveying and discharging chips. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-7As shown, a chip conveyor device for anti-clogging CNC machine tools includes a chip conveyor body 1, which is disposed on one side of the CNC machine tool and used for chip removal. A U-shaped frame 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the chip conveyor body 1. A storage box 3 is fixedly connected to the surface of the chip conveyor body 1. A fixing plate 4 is fixedly connected to the surface of the storage box 3 and has an opening 6. A positioning mechanism 5 is installed on the top of the fixing plate 4. A slot 9 is provided on the inner wall of the opening 6 and a filter mechanism 8 is detachably connected thereto. A vertical groove is installed on the surface of the filter mechanism 8. The top of the vertical plate 7 has a positioning groove, and the positioning mechanism 5 can restrict the position of the vertical plate 7. A horizontal bar 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the storage box 3. The bottom of the vertical plate 7 contacts the top of the horizontal bar 10. The horizontal bar 10 can support the vertical plate 7 during use to increase the stability of the vertical plate 7. An auxiliary mechanism 11 is installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 2. A hollow frame 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the surface of the U-shaped frame 2. A cleaning mechanism 13 is installed on the surface of the U-shaped frame 2. A support plate 14 is fixedly connected, and a discharge plate 15 is fixedly connected to the surface of the support plate 14. The surface of the discharge plate 15 is in contact with the surface of the chip conveyor body 1. The discharge plate 15 can collect debris when the chain plate on the surface of the chip conveyor body 1 unfolds. The cleaning mechanism 13 can assist in discharging the debris. A baffle 16 is fixedly connected to the surface of the discharge plate 15. The baffle 16 can guide the movement of the debris to reduce the possibility of debris falling back onto the surface of the chip conveyor body 1 and causing blockage. Storage box A cover plate 17 is fixedly connected to the top of 3. A rubber pad 18 is fixedly connected to the surface of the cover plate 17. The surface of the rubber pad 18 is in contact with the surface of the chip conveyor body 1. By setting the cover plate 17 and the rubber pad 18, the chip conveyor body 1 can be blocked so that air can flow through the gaps on the surface of the chip conveyor body 1 to clean the debris on the surface of the chain plate. The setting of the rubber pad 18 can facilitate the normal transmission of the chip conveyor body 1 and reduce the hard contact between the cover plate 17 and the chip conveyor body 1.
[0025] The positioning mechanism 5 includes a guide rod 51, a lifting plate 52, a top plate 53, and a positioning plate 54. The guide rod 51 slides through the fixed plate 4. The lifting plate 52 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide rod 51. The top plate 53 is fixedly connected to the top of the guide rod 51. The positioning plate 54 is fixedly connected through the lifting plate 52 and slides through the fixed plate 4. A compression spring 55 is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod 51. The surface of the positioning plate 54 is in contact with the inner wall of the positioning groove. When the operator lifts the positioning plate 54, the contact between the positioning groove and the guide plate is released. At this time, the limit on the vertical plate 7 is released. The operator can remove the filter mechanism 8 through the vertical plate 7 and uniformly process the cleaned debris. Afterwards, under the action of the compression spring 55, the positioning plate 54 descends and cooperates with the positioning groove to fix the position of the vertical plate 7.
[0026] The filter mechanism 8 includes a sealing plate 81, a clamping plate 82, and a filter plate 83. The sealing plate 81 is fixedly connected to the surface of the vertical plate 7, and the surface of the sealing plate 81 is in contact with the inner wall of the opening 6. The clamping plate 82 is fixedly connected to the surface of the sealing plate 81, and the surface of the clamping plate 82 is in contact with the inner wall of the slot 9. The filter plate 83 is fixedly connected to the surface of the clamping plate 82. When the operator moves the filter mechanism 8 into the opening 6, the vertical plate 7 and the sealing plate 81 cooperate to block the opening 6. During this process, the clamping plate 82 and the slot 9 cooperate to increase the stability of the filter plate 83. When the air flows, the filter plate 83 can filter debris.
[0027] The auxiliary mechanism 11 includes a fan 111, a suction pipe 112, and an exhaust pipe 113. The fan 111 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the frame 2. A suction hood is fixedly inserted through the bottom of the storage box 3. The two ends of the suction pipe 112 are respectively connected to the bottom of the suction hood and the air inlet of the fan 111. One end of the exhaust pipe 113 is connected to the air outlet of the fan 111, and the other end of the exhaust pipe 113 is fixedly inserted through the bottom of the hollow frame 12. When the fan 111 is started, the suction pipe 112 and the suction hood work together to draw air from the inside of the storage box 3. At this time, the outside air can flow through the inner surface of the chip conveyor body 1 to the inside of the storage box 3. The air flow can clean the debris embedded on the surface of the chip conveyor body 1. The cleaned debris is filtered by the filter mechanism 8. At the same time, the air is discharged through the exhaust pipe 113 into the inside of the hollow frame 12 and blows the fan blades 134 to drive the cleaning mechanism 13 to rotate.
[0028] The cleaning mechanism 13 includes a rotating shaft 131, a sleeve 132, and a cleaning brush 133. The rotating shaft 131 rotates through the C-shaped frame 2. The sleeve 132 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the rotating shaft 131. The cleaning brush 133 is fixedly connected to the surface of the sleeve 132. The cleaning brush 133 contacts the surface of the feed plate 15. Accordingly, the cleaning brush 133 can assist the movement of debris on the surface of the feed plate 15, and the debris can fall along the feed plate 15. A fan blade 134 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 131. The rotating shaft 131 rotates through the hollow frame 12. When the exhaust pipe 113 blows air towards the fan blade 134, the rotating shaft 131 can drive the sleeve 132 to rotate, so as to drive the cleaning brush 133 to rotate. The rotation speed of the rotating shaft 131 can be controlled by the exhaust volume of the exhaust pipe 113. This is an existing mature technology and will not be described in detail here.
[0029] Working Principle: During operation, the chip conveyor body 1 uses a chain plate to discharge chips from the CNC machine tool. As the chip conveyor body 1 moves the chips, the discharge plate 15 catches them just before they reach the turning point of the body. At this point, the operator starts the fan 111, and the suction pipe 112, in conjunction with the suction hood, cleans the turning and unfolding parts of the chip conveyor body 1 with air, reducing the possibility of chips getting stuck on its surface. During this process, the filter plate 83 filters the airborne chips. Air is blown into the hollow frame 12 through the exhaust pipe 113 and drives the fan blades 134 to rotate. The rotating shaft 131 and the sleeve 132 cooperate to drive the cleaning brush 133 to rotate. When the cleaning brush 133 rotates, it can assist the discharge of debris from the surface of the discharge plate 15, thereby reducing the possibility of debris accumulating on the surface of the discharge plate 15 and thus reducing the possibility of debris clogging the chip conveyor body 1. The staff regularly raises the top plate 53 and releases the positioning plate 54 from the vertical plate 7. After that, the staff can remove the filter mechanism 8 through the vertical plate 7 to uniformly process the cleaned debris.
