Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machine tools, specifically a guide rail protection device for machine tool modification. Background Technology

[0002] Machine tool guideways are parts that support and guide moving components along a certain trajectory. They are called guideway pairs or simply guideways. The movement trajectory of moving parts can be straight, circular, or curved. Rolling circular guideways can be classified as rolling thrust bearings, while curved guideways are rarely used in machinery. Guideways are a very important component in machines. The machining accuracy of machine tools is directly related to the accuracy of guideways. Usually, by changing guideways of different sizes, they can be used for the transfer of different workpieces.

[0003] However, since a lot of debris is often splashed during machine tool use, the debris can easily damage the guide rail after falling onto it and being crushed or entering the mounting holes. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a guide rail protection device for machine tool modification, which solves the problems mentioned in the background.

[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a guide rail protection device for machine tool modification, including a machine tool base, a movable guide rail arranged above the machine tool base, a sliding guide block installed at the center of the machine tool base, protective mechanisms arranged on both sides of the sliding guide block above the movable guide rail, an L-shaped connecting frame arranged on one end of the protective mechanism near the sliding guide block, mounting seats arranged in an array on the outer side of the L-shaped connecting frame, a folding baffle connected between two adjacent mounting seats, springs installed on both sides of the folding baffle between two adjacent mounting seats, a roller pad installed on the lower surface of the mounting seat, and a roller arranged inside the roller pad.

[0006] As a further improvement of this utility model: a magnetic pad is installed on the side end of the L-shaped connecting frame near the sliding guide block, and a guide rail clamp is installed on the outer side of the moving guide rail on the side surface of the machine tool base.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a transmission screw is installed inside the sliding guide block, one end of the transmission screw is located inside the machine tool base and a first rotating seat is installed thereon, and the other end of the transmission screw is located inside the machine tool base and a second rotating seat is installed thereon.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the folding baffle is fixedly connected to the L-shaped connecting frame and the spring, and a rotating shaft is installed between the roller and the roller washer.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the folding baffle is fixedly connected to the L-shaped connecting frame and the mounting base.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, the L-shaped connecting frame is magnetically fixed to the sliding guide block through the magnetic pad.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the two ends of the transmission screw are equipped with rotating bearings inside the first rotating seat and the second rotating seat, and the sliding guide block is meshed and rotatably connected with the transmission screw.

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

[0013] The sliding guide block pushes the L-shaped connecting bracket, while the rollers below the mounting base move above the moving guide rail, compressing the spring and squeezing and contracting the folding baffle. The folding baffle away from the direction of movement of the sliding guide block is stretched and flattened, which can prevent the accumulation of debris above the moving guide rail and thus reduce damage to the moving guide rail.

[0019] 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.

[0020] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a guide rail protection device for machine tool modification, including a machine tool base 1, a movable guide rail 2 disposed above the machine tool base 1, a sliding guide block 4 installed at the center of the machine tool base 1, protective mechanisms 6 disposed on both sides of the sliding guide block 4 above the movable guide rail 2, an L-shaped connecting frame 601 disposed on one side of the protective mechanism 6 near the sliding guide block 4, mounting seats 602 arranged in an array on the outer side of the L-shaped connecting frame 601, and a folding baffle 604 connected between two adjacent mounting seats 602, the folding baffle 604 being connected to the L-shaped connecting frame 601 and the mounting seats. 602 is fixedly connected. The folding baffle 604 is fixedly connected to the L-shaped connecting frame 601 and the spring 603. The two sides of the folding baffle 604 are equipped with springs 603 between two adjacent mounting seats 602. The protective mechanism 6 at the end away from the L-shaped connecting frame 601 is fixed. At the same time, the springs 603 have low elasticity, which can prevent displacement when the protective mechanism 6 is squeezed as a whole. The lower surface of the mounting seat 602 is equipped with a roller pad 605. The roller pad 605 is equipped with a roller 607. A rotating shaft is installed between the roller 607 and the roller pad 605.

[0021] like Figure 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, a magnetic pad 606 is installed on the side of the L-shaped connecting frame 601 near the sliding guide block 4. The L-shaped connecting frame 601 is magnetically fixed to the sliding guide block 4 through the magnetic pad 606. A guide rail clamp 7 is installed on the outer side of the moving guide rail 2 on the side surface of the machine tool base 1. A transmission screw 8 is installed inside the sliding guide block 4. The sliding guide block 4 and the transmission screw 8 are meshed and rotatably connected. One end of the transmission screw 8 is installed inside the machine tool base 1 with a first rotating seat 3. Both ends of the transmission screw 8 are installed inside the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 5 with rotating bearings. The other end of the transmission screw 8 is installed inside the machine tool base 1 with a second rotating seat 5.

[0022] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 5 are respectively installed and fixed inside the machine tool base 1. Then, the sliding guide block 4 is fitted onto the outer side of the transmission screw 8 on the first rotating seat 3 and the second rotating seat 5. The sliding guide block 4 will then be locked above the moving guide rail 2. The movement of the sliding guide block 4 is controlled by the rotation of the transmission screw 8. The protective mechanism 6 is attached to the side surface of the sliding guide block 4 by the magnetic pad 606 on the side surface of the L-shaped connecting frame 601. This causes the roller 607 in the roller pad 605 below the mounting base 602 to be positioned above the moving guide rail 2. When the sliding guide block 4 moves, the sliding guide block 4 will move. When the sliding guide block 4 moves above the moving guide rail 2, it pushes the L-shaped connecting frame 601. The L-shaped connecting frame 601 is pressed towards the mounting base 602, causing the spring 603 to be compressed. At the same time, the folding baffle 604 is compressed and contracted. The roller 607 below the mounting base 602 moves above the moving guide rail 2. The folding baffle 604 inside the protective mechanism 6, which is located away from the direction of movement of the sliding guide block 4, is stretched flat. Therefore, during processing, the protective mechanism 6 can protect the area above the moving guide rail 2, preventing the accumulation of waste on the area above the moving guide rail 2 and thus reducing damage to the moving guide rail 2.
