Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vertical machining equipment technology, specifically a base for a vertical machining center. Background Technology

[0002] Chinese patent document CN216939400U discloses a base for a vertical machining center. It proposes a mounting groove at the top of a fixed base plate, with a waste collection box inside the groove. The waste collection box has multiple collection holes at its top, a fixed hollow frame fixed to its top edge, and multiple air outlet holes inside the hollow frame. A fan is fixed to the front of the waste collection box, with an air inlet pipe fixed to the fan's air inlet and an air outlet pipe fixed to the fan's air outlet. The air blown from the air outlet holes cleans the waste into the waste collection box, ensuring thorough collection. Simultaneously, it collects surrounding dust, improving the machining environment and avoiding manual cleaning, thus reducing worker workload and demonstrating good performance.

[0003] The base of the vertical machining center has a mounting slot in the middle, in which a waste collection box is installed. The air inlet pipe of the blower on one side of the waste collection box is connected to the inside of the waste collection box. A filter screen is fixed at one end of the air inlet pipe. After a long period of air intake, machining debris will accumulate on the filter screen. Over time, the accumulation will block the blower's air inlet pipe, and the blower will be under long-term overpressure. Once a certain critical value is reached, the blower will burn out the motor immediately, and the operator will need to manually clean the machining debris from the base, which is a troublesome operation.
