The storage tank has a grinding fluid supply chamber and a diluent supply chamber above it, and a drive chamber below it. The drive chamber is equipped with a first pump and a second pump. The first pump is connected to a first suction pipe and a first discharge pipe, the first suction pipe communicating with the grinding fluid supply chamber and the first discharge pipe communicating with the stirring vessel. The second pump is connected to a second suction pipe and a second discharge pipe, the second suction pipe communicating with the diluent supply chamber and the second discharge pipe communicating with the stirring vessel. The stirring vessel contains a stirring assembly, and a connecting pipe is connected to the bottom of the stirring vessel, the connecting pipe being connected to the supply pipe mechanism.

[0023] Example 1, such as Figure 1-2As shown, a centralized grinding fluid mixing and supply device includes a storage tank 1, a stirring vessel 2, and a supply pipe mechanism. A grinding fluid supply chamber 3 and a diluent supply chamber 4 are located above the storage tank 1, and a drive chamber 5 is located below the storage tank 1. The drive chamber 5 is equipped with a first pump 6 and a second pump 7. The first pump 6 is connected to a first suction pipe 8 and a first discharge pipe 9. The first suction pipe 8 communicates with the grinding fluid supply chamber 3, and the first discharge pipe 9 passes through the grinding fluid supply chamber 3 and communicates with the stirring vessel 2. The first pump 6 quantitatively pumps the grinding fluid from the grinding fluid supply chamber 3 into the stirring vessel 2. The second pump 7 is connected to a second suction pipe 10 and a second discharge pipe 11. The second suction pipe 10 communicates with the diluent supply chamber 4, and the second discharge pipe 11 communicates with the stirring vessel 2. The second pump 7 quantitatively pumps the diluent from the diluent supply chamber 4 into the stirring vessel 2. The diluent can be any commercially available one. In this embodiment, water is used as the diluent, which can reduce the corresponding cost. The stirring vessel 2 is equipped with a stirring component to stir the mixed liquid. The bottom of the stirring vessel 2 is connected to a connecting pipe 12, which is connected to the supply pipe mechanism.

[0024] By automatically controlling the extraction and mixing of grinding fluid and diluent using the first pump 6 and the second pump 7 respectively, the grinding fluid concentration is automatically proportioned. This significantly improves work efficiency, reduces the need for manual operation, and minimizes proportioning errors caused by human factors, thus ensuring consistent and accurate grinding fluid concentration on each machine tool. Furthermore, this solution allows for easy adjustment of the operating parameters of the first pump 6 and the second pump 7 to change the mixing ratio of grinding fluid and diluent, achieving the supply of grinding fluid of different concentrations according to different processing requirements. This flexibility improves production adaptability and efficiency.

[0025] Combination Figure 2 The stirring mechanism includes a support frame 13 extending directly above the mixing vessel 2 and connected to a stirring motor 14. Below the stirring motor 14 is a stirring rod 15 extending into the mixing vessel 2 and connected to stirring blades 16-1. The stirring motor 14 drives the stirring rod 15 and stirring blades 16-1 to rotate within the mixing vessel 2, achieving thorough mixing of the grinding fluid and diluent. The stirring blades 16-1 are designed to generate strong convection and shear forces, promoting mixing and homogenization of the liquids, thus ensuring accurate and consistent grinding fluid concentration. The operation of the stirring mechanism ensures uniform mixing of the grinding fluid in all directions within the mixing vessel 2. This avoids localized over- or under-concentration, improving the overall effectiveness of the grinding fluid. The stirring mechanism significantly reduces the mixing time, improving production efficiency, reducing waiting time, and allowing the grinding fluid to reach the required concentration and be supplied to the machine tool more quickly.

[0026] Combination Figure 3-5The supply pipe mechanism includes a main supply pipe 16 and several tee pipes 17 connected to the main supply pipe. A first outlet port 18 and a second outlet port 19 are connected to the tee pipes 17. A first supply pipe 20 is detachably connected to the first outlet port 18, and a second supply pipe 21 is detachably connected to the second outlet port 19. Both the first and second outlet ports 18 and 19 are equipped with control valves 22. When the first supply pipe 20 becomes blocked, the control valve 22 on the second outlet port 19 can be opened to allow the second supply pipe 21 to continue supplying liquid, ensuring continuous liquid supply. The control valve 22 can be any structure such as a butterfly valve, ball valve, gate valve, or stop valve. The control valve 22 is a known technology in the art, and its specific structure will not be described in detail in this embodiment. Both the first outlet port 18 and the second outlet port 19 are provided with external threads 23. Both the first supply pipe 20 and the second supply pipe 21 are provided with connecting parts 24, the inner side of which is provided with internal threads. The threaded connection allows for quick disassembly of the supply pipes, facilitating the clearing of blocked pipes. Both the first supply pipe 20 and the second supply pipe 21 are provided with filter screens 25 at their bottoms. The filter screens 25 effectively block and remove solid impurities and particulate matter from the grinding fluid.
