Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CNC lathe technology, and in particular to a chip collection device for CNC lathe machining. Background Technology

[0002] A CNC lathe is a machine tool that uses computer numerical control technology for machining. It is mainly used for precision machining of materials such as metals and plastics. It can perform complex cutting operations, such as turning, drilling, boring, and threading, and is widely used in the manufacturing industry.

[0003] Currently, a significant amount of debris is generated during the machining process on CNC lathes. However, some machine tools lack debris collection devices, causing debris to accumulate on the machining table and affecting machining efficiency. Although some machine tools have the function of cleaning debris from the machining table, a considerable amount of floating dust debris is still generated during actual machining. This debris poses a potential hazard to the working environment and the health of operators. Therefore, designing a debris collection device for CNC lathe machining is something we need to consider in order to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a chip collection device for CNC lathe machining. To address usability issues, it incorporates a chip removal mechanism. By starting a motor, two brushes move in opposite directions, facilitating the unified collection of large-volume chips and ensuring machining efficiency. It also includes a dust removal mechanism to uniformly recycle dust-like chips, preventing their spread and environmental pollution.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A chip collection device for CNC lathe machining includes a support platform with two side plates fixedly connected to its upper end; a chip removal mechanism comprising two fixed plates fixedly connected to the upper end of the support platform, a motor mounted on the right side of the right fixed plate, a bidirectional threaded rod rotatably connected between the two fixed plates, the right end of the bidirectional threaded rod penetrating the right fixed plate and fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor, both threaded ends of the bidirectional threaded rod being threadedly connected to a U-shaped sliding frame, and a brush provided on the outer side of the U-shaped sliding frame; and a dust removal mechanism for collecting dust and chips.

[0007] Preferably, a guide rod is fixedly connected between the two fixed plates, and the guide rod passes through the two U-shaped sliding frames and is slidably connected.

[0008] Preferably, the dust removal mechanism includes two triangular hollow blocks fixedly connected to the upper ends of two side plates, and each of the two triangular hollow blocks has a suction port on its opposite side. A vacuum cleaner is installed on the upper end of the support platform, and the suction pipe of the vacuum cleaner is connected to the inner cavity of the corresponding triangular hollow block through two dust conveying pipes.

[0009] Preferably, a collection channel is vertically formed at the upper end of the support platform.

[0010] Preferably, a collection box is provided below the support platform, and the collection box cooperates with the collection channel.

[0011] Preferably, the motor is a servo motor with a changeable rotation direction, and the two threaded ends of the bidirectional threaded rod have opposite thread directions.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] A chip removal mechanism is installed, which uses a motor to move two U-shaped sliding frames and two brushes in opposite directions. This allows for the convenient and quick collection of large-volume chips from the support platform into a collection box, effectively reducing the actual cleaning and collection workload and ensuring the processing efficiency of the CNC lathe. A dust removal mechanism is also installed, which uses a vacuum cleaner to collect dust and debris generated during processing through two suction ports, preventing them from spreading into the surrounding environment and posing a threat to the environment and the health of workers.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] 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.

[0019] Reference Figures 1-3A chip collection device for CNC lathe machining includes a support platform 1, two side plates 2 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the support platform 1, a collection channel 13 is vertically opened at the upper end of the support platform 1, and a collection box 14 is provided below the support platform 1. The collection box 14 cooperates with the collection channel 13 to collect the machining chips passing through the collection channel 13 in a unified manner.

[0020] The system also includes a chip removal mechanism, which comprises two fixed plates 3 fixedly connected to the upper end of the support platform 1. A motor 4 is mounted on the right side of the right fixed plate 3. The motor 4 is a servo motor with a changeable rotation direction. A bidirectional threaded rod 5 is rotatably connected between the two fixed plates 3. The two threaded ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 5 have opposite thread directions. The right end of the bidirectional threaded rod 5 passes through the right fixed plate 3 and is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 4. Both threaded ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 5 are threadedly connected to U-shaped sliding brackets 6. Initially, the two U-shaped sliding brackets 6 are respectively attached to the side walls of the corresponding fixed plates 3. The U-shaped sliding frame 6 is mainly composed of an inclined part at the top, a vertical part in the middle, and a horizontal part at the bottom. A brush 7 is provided on the outside of the U-shaped sliding frame 6. The inclined part at the top of the brush 7 can clean the opposing sides of the two triangular hollow blocks 9 respectively. The vertical part in the middle of the brush 7 can clean the opposing sides of the two side plates 2 respectively. The horizontal part at the bottom of the brush 7 can clean the top of the support platform 1. A guide rod 8 is fixedly connected between the two fixed plates 3. The guide rod 8 passes through the two U-shaped sliding frames 6 and is slidably connected. The guide rod 8 can improve the stability of the two U-shaped sliding frames 6 when they move.

[0021] It also includes a dust removal mechanism for collecting dust and debris. The dust removal mechanism includes two triangular hollow blocks 9 that are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two side plates 2 respectively. Each of the two triangular hollow blocks 9 has a suction port 10 on its opposite side. A vacuum cleaner 11 is installed on the upper end of the support platform 1. The vacuum cleaner 11 is existing technology and mainly consists of a motor, fan, suction port, suction pipe, filter, dust bag, etc. The suction pipe of the vacuum cleaner 11 is connected to the inner cavity of the corresponding triangular hollow block 9 through two dust conveying pipes 12.

[0022] In this utility model, during use, it is necessary to ensure that the component is located above the middle of the support platform 1 for processing. During processing, a lot of dust and large-volume debris will be generated (large-volume debris will fall into the upper part of the support platform 1). At this time, the operator can start the vacuum cleaner 11 so that the dust generated during processing is sucked into the inner cavity of the corresponding triangular hollow block 9 through the two suction ports 10, and transported to the vacuum cleaner 11 through the corresponding dust conveying pipe 12. In this way, the dust can be collected in a unified manner to prevent it from spreading to the surrounding environment and polluting the environment.

[0023] After the lathe has been machining for a period of time, large-volume chips will accumulate on the upper part of the support table 1. At this time, the operator can start the motor 4 to drive the bidirectional threaded rod 5 to rotate, which will drive the two U-shaped sliding frames 6 and the brushes 7 on them to move towards each other. During the movement, the horizontal part of the two brushes 7 can push the chips on the upper part of the support table 1 towards the center. At the same time, the vertical and inclined parts of the two brushes 7 can brush off the chips adhering to the opposing sides of the two side plates 2 and the opposing sides of the two triangular hollow blocks 9. Finally, the chips will fall into the collection box 14 through the collection channel 13. After collection, the two U-shaped sliding frames 6 need to be reset (i.e., respectively attached to the corresponding fixed plates 3) so that the chips can be collected later. This can conveniently clean and collect large-volume chips, reduce the maintenance workload of the operator, and ensure the machining efficiency of the lathe.

[0024] 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.
