Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machine tool technology, specifically to a machine tool chip collection cart. Background Technology
[0002] Machine tools are an indispensable core component of the manufacturing industry. They are responsible for shaping raw materials into various shapes to produce various machines and their parts. A large amount of waste is generated during the machine tool processing, which needs to be collected and cleaned by a waste collection cart. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain the working environment and avoid the health problems of waste from harming the operators.
[0003] According to the Chinese patent publication number CN220533661U, a waste chip collection vehicle for a machine tool chip conveyor is disclosed. The waste chip collection vehicle in this utility model patent can unload the waste chips by lifting the rear end of the hopper so that the waste chips can slide out of the hopper.
[0004] However, the waste chip collection vehicle is connected to connecting rods on both the left and right sides. The hopper is restricted by the connecting rods and cannot make a circular motion with its front end. As a result, the tilting amplitude of the hopper is low, making it difficult to empty the waste chips inside. In addition, the top of the hopper is not equipped with a dust-proof component, which can easily cause dust to spread when tilting, thus failing to achieve the dust prevention effect. Therefore, a machine tool chip collection vehicle is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a machine tool chip collection cart that has the advantages of avoiding spillage residue and having a certain dust prevention effect, thus solving the problems of easy spillage residue and ineffective dust prevention in existing chip collection carts mentioned above.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a machine tool chip collection cart, including a trolley, the top of which is provided with a tilting dust prevention mechanism;
[0007] The tilting dust prevention mechanism includes a mounting frame fixed to the top of the trolley. Gear components are provided on the front of the mounting frame. A dust collection box is rotatably connected to the inner side of the mounting frame. A dust collection box is fixedly connected to the top left side of the trolley. A discharge plate is fixedly installed on the left side of the mounting frame. A shield is fixedly connected to the top of the dust collection box. A ventilation box is fixedly connected to the top of the shield. A dust filter plate is fixedly connected to the inner side of the ventilation box. An exhaust fan is movably installed on the inner top wall of the ventilation box.
[0008] Furthermore, the gear component includes a first gear disk rotatably connected to the front side of the mounting bracket, a second gear disk meshing with the top of the first gear disk, a stepper motor fixedly mounted on the front side of the mounting bracket, and the output shaft of the stepper motor being coaxially fixed with the front end of the first gear disk.
[0009] Furthermore, a material collection tray is slidably connected to the inner bottom wall of the dust collection box, and a material inlet is provided on the right side of the dust collection box.

[0010] Furthermore, an electrical control box is fixedly installed on the top right side of the trolley, and a control panel is provided on the top of the electrical control box. The stepper motor is electrically connected to the control panel via a cable.
[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the ventilation box and the ash collection box are interconnected, and an installation groove is provided on the top of the ventilation box. The exhaust fan is located inside the installation groove and is electrically connected to the control panel via wiring.
[0012] Furthermore, a drive shaft is coaxially fixedly connected to the bottom of the exhaust fan, and a three-bladed rotating plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drive shaft. The top of the three-bladed rotating plate is attached to the bottom of the dust filter plate, and the side of the three-bladed rotating plate that is attached to the dust filter plate is located on the bristle layer.
[0013] Beneficial effects
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. The chip collection cart of this machine tool discharges machine tool waste chips into the dust collection box for temporary storage. At this time, the first toothed disc is driven by the stepper motor, and the first toothed disc meshes with the second toothed disc. The second toothed disc controls the dust collection box to tilt, swing and flip. The inner side of the dust collection box has an inverted trapezoidal structure, which can ensure that the waste inside is completely emptied. Both the first toothed disc and the second toothed disc are set as half toothed disc structures, so as to ensure that the dust collection box automatically rotates back to its original position after flipping a certain degree.
[0016] 2. The chip collection cart of this machine tool is equipped with a ventilation box at the top of the dust collection box. The exhaust fan of the ventilation box introduces the air inside the dust collection box into the dust filter plate for filtration to prevent dust from spreading.

[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. 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.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 A machine tool chip collection cart includes a trolley 1, a tilting dustproof mechanism 2 on the top of the trolley 1, a stepper motor 3 fixedly mounted on the front of the mounting frame 201, a material collection tray 4 slidably connected to the inner bottom wall of the dust collection box 204 for collecting dust and debris, an electrical control box 5 fixedly mounted on the top right side of the trolley 1, a drive shaft 6 coaxially fixedly connected to the bottom of the exhaust fan 209, a three-bladed rotating plate 7 fixedly connected to the bottom of the drive shaft 6, and the drive shaft 6 drives the three-bladed rotating plate 7 to rotate.
[0024] The tilting dust prevention mechanism 2 includes a mounting frame 201 fixed to the top of the trolley 1. A gear component 202 is provided on the front of the mounting frame 201. A dust collection box 203 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the mounting frame 201. A dust collection box 204 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the trolley 1. A discharge plate 205 is fixedly installed on the left side of the mounting frame 201. A shielding cover 206 is fixedly connected to the top of the dust collection box 203. A ventilation box 207 is fixedly connected to the top of the shielding cover 206. A dust filter screen 208 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the ventilation box 207. An exhaust fan 209 is movably installed on the inner top wall of the ventilation box 207.
[0025] according to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, both the first toothed disc 2021 and the second toothed disc 2022 are designed with a semi-circular structure. When the first toothed disc 2021 drives the ash collection box 203 to rotate to a certain extent, the second toothed disc 2022 disengages from the tooth layer structure of the first toothed disc 2021 and re-engages after rotating one revolution, thereby driving the ash collection box 203 to automatically reset and avoid excessive rotation.
[0026] according to Figure 1As shown, when the dust collection box 203 is tilted and dumped, the waste material will be poured into the feeding plate 205, and then discharged from the feeding plate 205 into the collection drawer box 4 in the dust collection box 204 through the feeding port, making it easy to remove and clean. The power control box 5 is internally equipped with a power module and a control module, and the control panel is used to control the stepper motor 3 and the exhaust fan 209 to turn on and off.
[0027] according to Figure 4 As shown, when the exhaust fan 209 rotates, it will drive the drive shaft 6 below to rotate synchronously. The drive shaft 6 drives the three-blade rotating plate 7, which in turn attaches the bristle layer of the three-blade rotating plate 7 to the bottom surface of the dust filter plate 208 and rotates, thus preventing the dust filter plate 208 from becoming clogged and affecting the dust blocking effect.
[0028] In summary, this machine tool chip collection cart temporarily stores machine tool waste chips in an ash collection box 203. At this time, a stepper motor 3 drives a first gear disc 2021, which in turn meshes with a second gear disc 2022. The second gear disc 2022 controls the tilting and oscillating of the ash collection box 203. The inner side of the ash collection box 203 has an inverted trapezoidal structure, ensuring complete emptying of the internal waste. Both the first gear disc 2021 and the second gear disc 2022 are designed as semi-gear discs, thus ensuring the ash collection box 203 can tilt and oscillate effectively. The system automatically rotates and resets after a certain range. A ventilation box 207 is installed on the top of the dust collection box 203. The exhaust fan 209 of the ventilation box 207 introduces the air inside the dust collection box 203 into the dust filter plate 208 for filtration, preventing dust from spreading. At the same time, the exhaust fan 209 drives the three-bladed rotating plate 7 below through the drive shaft 6 to clean the bottom of the dust filter plate 208, thereby effectively preventing the filter from clogging. This solves the problems of easy residue when dumping and ineffective dust prevention in the existing waste collection vehicles mentioned in the background technology.
