Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machine tool technology, and in particular to a chip collection device for machine tools used in small workshops. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of machining, especially in small workshops, machine tools generate a large amount of debris during the cutting of various metals, plastics, and other materials. Effective cleaning and collection of this debris plays a crucial role in maintaining the normal operation of machine tools, ensuring machining accuracy, and guaranteeing a safe and clean working environment.

[0003] Traditional chip collection methods mainly rely on collection hoppers to guide and collect chips. However, in practice, it has been found that due to the large amount of chips generated, these chips tend to accumulate in the sliding area of ​​the collection hopper after entering it. They are difficult for the chips to slide down to the collection area by their own weight. Operators usually need to spend extra time and effort to clean the inner wall of the collection hopper with brooms, brushes and other cleaning tools, which increases the labor intensity of workers and reduces production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, a chip collection device for machine tools used in small workshops is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problems raised in the background art by proposing a chip collection device for machine tools in small workshops.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A chip collection device for machine tools in small workshops includes a base, a collection hopper, and a collection bin. The collection hopper is fixedly installed on the top of the base, and the collection bin is inserted into the interior of the base. A collection port is provided at the connection between the base and the collection hopper. Inside the collection hopper, there are two guide plates arranged in an inverted V-shape. The upward-sloping side of the two guide plates is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the collection hopper via a rotating shaft. Inside the collection hopper and below the two guide plates, there is a drive shaft arranged horizontally. The two ends of the drive shaft are rotatably connected to the two sides of the collection hopper, respectively. A motor is fixedly installed on the outer side wall of the collection hopper, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the drive shaft. Cams are fixedly installed on the shaft wall of the drive shaft below the two guide plates.

[0008] Preferably, the inner sidewall of the base and the sidewall of the collection chamber are both fixedly provided with corresponding magnet blocks, and the sidewall of the collection chamber away from the magnet blocks is fixedly provided with a handle.

[0009] Preferably, the inner wall of the collecting hopper is provided with a rotating groove, and the rotating shaft is rotatably disposed inside the rotating groove.

[0010] Preferably, a torsion spring is sleeved on the shaft wall of the rotating shaft, and the two ends of the torsion spring are fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating groove and the side wall of the guide plate, respectively.

[0011] Preferably, a wear-resistant top block is fixedly provided on the lower surface of the guide plate, and the protrusion of the cam is arranged in contact with the bottom of the wear-resistant top block.

[0012] Preferably, the top of both sides of the collecting hopper is provided with a mounting part for connection with the machine tool.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a chip collection device for machine tools in small workshops, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. The small workshop uses a machine tool chip collection device. It has a guide plate arranged in an inverted V-shape inside the collection hopper. The guide plate is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the collection hopper by a rotating shaft. A cam is set on the drive shaft and cooperates with the wear-resistant top block on the lower surface of the guide plate. When the motor drives the drive shaft to rotate, the cam periodically lifts the guide plate and generates vibration, so that the chips can be discharged downward quickly and are not easy to accumulate.

[0015] 2. The chip collection device for machine tools used in this small workshop uses a torsion spring on the rotating shaft. When the cam protrusion no longer pushes the guide plate upward, the torsional force of the torsion spring, plus the weight of the guide plate itself, enables the guide plate to rotate downward through the rotating shaft and quickly reset, which is beneficial for pushing the guide plate upward again.

[0016] The parts of this device not described herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. This utility model effectively avoids the accumulation of debris by using a motor-driven cam to lift and vibrate the guide plate, ensuring that the debris falls quickly and smoothly into the collection bin through the collection port. Compared with traditional collection devices, this greatly improves the chip removal efficiency and reduces the labor intensity of workers. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-4 A chip collection device for machine tools used in small workshops includes a base 1, a collection hopper 2, and a collection bin 3. The collection hopper 2 is fixedly mounted on the top of the base 1. Mounting parts 15 for connecting to the machine tool are provided on both sides of the top of the collection hopper 2. The collection hopper 2 can be fixedly mounted at the bottom of the machine tool via the mounting parts 15, ensuring that chips from the machine tool fall into the collection hopper 2. The collection bin 3 is inserted into the interior of the base 1. A collection port 4 is provided at the connection between the base 1 and the collection hopper 2. The interior of the collection hopper 2 has two guide plates 5 arranged in an inverted V-shape. The upward-sloping side of the two guide plates 5 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the collection hopper 2 via a rotating shaft 6. A horizontally arranged... A drive shaft 7 is provided, and both ends of the drive shaft 7 are rotatably connected to the two sides of the collection hopper 2. A motor 8 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the collection hopper 2, and the output end of the motor 8 is fixedly connected to one end of the drive shaft 7. Cams 9 are fixedly provided on the shaft wall of the drive shaft 7 and below the two guide plates 5. A wear-resistant top block 14 is fixedly provided on the lower surface of the guide plate 5. The protrusion of the cam 9 is in contact with the bottom of the wear-resistant top block 14, which can avoid the cam 9 from directly contacting the guide plate 5 and causing wear. When the motor 8 works, it can drive the drive shaft 7 to rotate. The drive shaft 7 can drive the two cams 9 to rotate synchronously. Since the protrusion of the cam 9 is in contact with the wear-resistant top block 14 on the lower surface of the guide plate 5, the cam 9 will periodically push up the guide plate 5 and generate vibration.

[0025] Both the inner wall of the base 1 and the side wall of the collection chamber 3 are fixedly provided with corresponding magnet blocks 10. A handle 11 is fixedly provided on the side wall of the collection chamber 3 away from the magnet blocks 10. By pulling the handle 11 on the side wall of the collection chamber 3, the attraction between the inner wall of the base 1 and the corresponding magnet blocks 10 on the side wall of the collection chamber 3 is overcome, and the collection chamber 3 is removed from the base 1 for cleaning.

[0026] The inner wall of the collecting hopper 2 is provided with a rotating groove 12. The rotating shaft 6 is rotatably disposed inside the rotating groove 12. The shaft wall of the rotating shaft 6 is fitted with a torsion spring 13, and the two ends of the torsion spring 13 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating groove 12 and the side wall of the guide plate 5, respectively. When the protrusion of the cam 9 no longer pushes the guide plate 5 upward, the torsional force of the torsion spring 13, plus the weight of the guide plate 5 itself, can make the guide plate 5 rotate downward through the rotating shaft 6 and quickly reset, which is conducive to pushing the guide plate 5 upward again.

[0027] Working principle: The collecting hopper 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the machine tool through the mounting part 15. The debris generated during the processing enters the collecting hopper 2. The two guide plates 5, which are distributed in an inverted V shape inside, play a preliminary guiding role, guiding the debris to move towards the collecting port 4.

[0028] When the motor 8 starts, the output end of the motor 8 drives the drive shaft 7 to rotate. The cam 9 located below the two guide plates 5 on the shaft wall of the drive shaft 7 rotates synchronously with the drive shaft 7. Since the protrusion of the cam 9 contacts the wear-resistant top block 14 on the lower surface of the guide plate 5, as the cam 9 rotates, the cam 9 will periodically push up the guide plate 5 and generate vibration. This vibration can prevent the debris from accumulating on the surface of the guide plate 5, so that the debris can slide smoothly to the collection port 4 and finally fall into the collection chamber 3 inserted inside the base 1.

[0029] When it is necessary to clean the debris in the collection chamber 3, the operator pulls the handle 11 on the side wall of the collection chamber 3 to overcome the attraction between the inner side wall of the base 1 and the corresponding magnet 10 on the side wall of the collection chamber 3, and removes the collection chamber 3 from the base 1 for cleaning. After cleaning, the collection chamber 3 is installed back into the base 1 by the attraction of the magnet 10 so that the debris can continue to be collected.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
