Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ball end mill machining technology, and more specifically, to a coolant recovery device for ball end mill machining. Background Technology

[0002] Ball end mills are cutting tools with ball-shaped cutting edges that are mounted on milling machines for milling various curved surfaces and circular grooves. During the machining process, ball end mills generate a lot of heat and iron filings. To prevent the workpiece from overheating, coolant needs to be sprayed to cool the end mill and other components.

[0003] Currently, used coolant is generally discharged directly, leading to coolant waste. Even in cases of coolant recycling and reuse, it usually involves filtering the coolant through a filter before reuse. However, current filters are typically fixed in position, requiring a pusher to remove impurities. Since the impurity storage tank is either flush with or below the filter, coolant may enter the storage tank during filtration, quickly filling it and potentially flushing out impurities. These impurities then re-enter the filtered coolant, causing secondary contamination. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a coolant recovery device for ball end mill machining, which has the advantage of being able to change the position of the filter screen, thereby reducing the possibility of the temporary storage tank being filled and causing internal impurities to enter the coolant, and reducing the possibility of secondary pollution of the coolant.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a coolant recovery device for ball end mill machining, comprising a working tank, a PLC control device fixedly connected to the top of the working tank, a discharge port opened inside the working tank, an inlet pipe fixedly connected to the top of the working tank, the inlet pipe penetrating the working tank, a discharge pipe fixedly connected to the outside of the working tank, the discharge pipe penetrating the working tank, an adjustment assembly provided inside the working tank, the adjustment assembly including a mounting bracket fixedly connected to the top of the working tank, a motor fixedly connected inside the mounting bracket, a transmission rod fixedly connected to the transmission end of the motor, the transmission rod penetrating the working tank and rotatably connected, a one-way bearing rotatably connected to the bottom of the transmission rod, a reciprocating screw rotatably connected to the bottom of the one-way bearing, the bottom of the reciprocating screw rotatably connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the working tank, a filter plate threadedly connected to the outside of the reciprocating screw, and the outside of the filter plate slidably connected to the inside of the working tank.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a limiting component is provided at the bottom of the filter plate. The limiting component includes a telescopic rod fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter plate, and the bottom of the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the working barrel.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a pushing assembly is provided on the outside of the transmission rod. The pushing assembly includes a transmission plate fixedly connected to the outside of the transmission rod. Six sliding rods are slidably connected inside the transmission plate. The six sliding rods are divided into two groups, and a top plate is fixedly connected to the top of the two groups of sliding rods.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pushing assembly further includes two pushing plates fixedly connected to the bottom of the two sets of sliding rods. The bottom of the pushing plates is slidably connected to the top of the filter plate, and four springs are fixedly connected between the top of the two pushing plates and the bottom of the transmission plate.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, an ash storage component is provided on the outside of the working bucket. The ash storage component includes a limiting frame fixedly connected to the outside of the working bucket, and three sliders are slidably connected inside the limiting frame.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the ash storage assembly further includes a temporary storage box fixedly connected between the three sliders, the temporary storage box being slidably connected to the inside of the limiting frame, and a handle being fixedly connected to the top of the temporary storage box.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, both the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe are fixedly connected to a solenoid valve, the solenoid valve is electrically connected to the PLC control device, and the motor is electrically connected to the PLC control device.

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

[0013] 1. This utility model uses a motor to drive a transmission rod to rotate in reverse, which in turn drives a reciprocating screw through a one-way bearing, thereby moving the filter plate. When the filter plate moves to the height of the outlet, the motor can drive the transmission rod to rotate in the forward direction, which can drive the push component to operate. This pushes the impurities on the filter plate, and under the action of centrifugal force, the impurities are discharged through the outlet to the outside of the working barrel. This reduces the possibility of impurities clogging the filter plate and reduces the possibility of the temporary storage tank being filled, causing impurities to be flushed out and re-enter the coolant. This ensures the cleanliness of the filtered coolant.

[0014] 2. This utility model uses a motor to drive a transmission rod to rotate, which in turn drives a transmission plate to rotate, which in turn drives a slide rod to move, which in turn drives a top plate to move. This allows a push plate to clean impurities on the filter plate. The spring design allows the push plate to be lifted when the filter plate rises, and it can also press the push plate against the filter plate while the push plate is cleaning impurities, thus ensuring a tight fit.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this utility model provides a coolant recovery device for ball end mill machining, including a working tank 1. A PLC control device 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the working tank 1. An outlet is opened inside the working tank 1. An inlet pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the working tank 1 and passes through the working tank 1. A discharge pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the outside of the working tank 1 and passes through the working tank 1. An adjustment component is provided inside the working tank 1. The adjustment component includes a mounting bracket 5 fixedly connected to the top of the working tank 1. A motor 6 is fixedly connected inside the mounting bracket 5. A transmission rod 7 is fixedly connected to the transmission end of the motor 6. The transmission rod 7 passes through the working tank 1 and is rotatably connected. A one-way bearing 8 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the transmission rod 7. A reciprocating screw 9 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the one-way bearing 8. The bottom of the reciprocating screw 9 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the working tank 1. A filter plate 10 is threadedly connected to the outside of the reciprocating screw 9. The outside of the filter plate 10 is slidably connected to the inside of the working tank 1.

[0023] The motor 6 drives the transmission rod 7 to rotate in reverse, which in turn drives the reciprocating screw 9 to rotate via the one-way bearing 8, thereby moving the filter plate 10. When the filter plate 10 moves to the height of the discharge port, the motor 6 can drive the transmission rod 7 to rotate in the forward direction, which can drive the push assembly to operate, thereby pushing the impurities on the filter plate 10. Under the action of centrifugal force, the impurities can be discharged through the discharge port to the outside of the working tank 1. This reduces the possibility of impurities clogging the filter plate 10 and reduces the possibility of the temporary storage tank 18 being filled, causing impurities to be flushed out and re-enter the coolant, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the filtered coolant.

[0024] The filter plate 10 is provided with a limiting component at its bottom. The limiting component includes a telescopic rod 11 fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter plate 10. The bottom of the telescopic rod 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the working barrel 1.

[0025] The position of the filter plate 10 can be restricted by the telescopic rod 11.

[0026] The transmission rod 7 is provided with a pushing assembly on its outer side. The pushing assembly includes a transmission plate 12 fixedly connected to the outer side of the transmission rod 7. Six slide rods 13 are slidably connected inside the transmission plate 12. The six slide rods 13 are divided into two groups, and a top plate 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the two groups of slide rods 13.

[0027] The transmission plate 12 drives the slide bar 13 to move, thereby driving the top plate 14 to move.

[0028] The pushing assembly also includes two pushing plates 15 fixedly connected to the bottom of the two sets of slide bars 13. The bottom of the pushing plates 15 is slidably connected to the top of the filter plate 10. Four springs 16 are fixedly connected between the top of the two pushing plates 15 and the bottom of the transmission plate 12.

[0029] By moving the slide bar 13, the push plate 15 can be driven to clean the impurities on the filter plate 10.

[0030] The spring 16 can lift the push plate 15 when the filter plate 10 rises, and press the push plate 15 onto the filter plate 10 when the push plate 15 cleans the impurities on the filter plate 10, thereby ensuring a tight fit.

[0031] The work bucket 1 is equipped with a dust storage component on its outer side. The dust storage component includes a limiting frame 17 fixedly connected to the outer side of the work bucket 1. Three sliders 19 are slidably connected inside the limiting frame 17.

[0032] The ash storage assembly also includes a temporary storage box 18 fixedly connected between three sliders 19. The temporary storage box 18 is slidably connected to the inside of the limiting frame 17, and a handle 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the temporary storage box 18.

[0033] By pulling the handle 20, the temporary storage box 18 is moved, which in turn moves the slider 19, allowing the slider 19 to enter the limit frame 17. This fixes the position of the temporary storage box 18, aligning the inlet and outlet of the temporary storage box 18, thus storing the discharged impurities.

[0034] Solenoid valves are fixedly connected inside both the inlet pipe 3 and the outlet pipe 4. The solenoid valves are electrically connected to the PLC control device 2, and the motor 6 is electrically connected to the PLC control device 2.

[0035] The PLC control device 2 can control the motor 6 and the solenoid valve.

[0036] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: The motor 6 drives the transmission rod 7 to reverse, which in turn drives the reciprocating screw 9 to rotate through the one-way bearing 8, thereby moving the filter plate 10. When the filter plate 10 moves to the height of the discharge port, the motor 6 can drive the transmission rod 7 to rotate forward, which can drive the push component to operate, thereby pushing the impurities on the filter plate 10. Under the action of centrifugal force, the impurities can be discharged through the discharge port to the outside of the working barrel 1. This reduces the possibility of impurities clogging the filter plate 10 and reduces the possibility of the temporary storage tank 18 being filled, causing impurities to be flushed out and re-enter the coolant, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the filtered coolant.
