[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CNC machining technology, and more specifically, to a chip removal mechanism for CNC machining. Background Technology

[0002] CNC machining is a technology that uses computer programs to control the movement of machine tools to achieve high-precision and high-efficiency parts processing. It has a high degree of automation and is widely used in the field of mechanical processing. During the machining process, CNC machine tools generate chips. To prevent these chips from affecting the normal operation of the machine tool, they need to be cleaned and collected promptly after each machining cycle. Existing cleaning methods are mostly manual, which is not only inefficient but also prone to causing scratches when cleaning metal chips due to their sharp surfaces. Therefore, we propose an improvement: a chip removal mechanism for CNC machining. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a chip removal mechanism for CNC machining, which can effectively solve the problem that manual operation for cleaning is not only inefficient, but also that the surface of metal chips is sharp and easily scratched when cleaning them.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A chip removal mechanism for CNC machining includes a CNC machine tool body. A chip removal groove is provided on the lower side of the interior of the CNC machine tool body. A partition is installed inside the chip removal groove. A groove is provided on one side of the bottom of the CNC machine tool body. A movable plate is arranged inside the groove. A drive mechanism for controlling the movement of the movable plate is provided on one side of the CNC machine tool body. A collection frame is arranged inside the movable plate.

[0006] Preferably, a first mounting groove is provided on the inner wall of each end of the chip removal groove, and a mounting rod is installed between the inner walls of each end of the first mounting groove.

[0007] Preferably, a first side plate is installed on both sides of the lower surface of the partition, and a sliding mounting sleeve is installed at one end of each first side plate, the sliding mounting sleeve being slidably fitted onto the rod body of the mounting rod.

[0008] Preferably, a second mounting slot is provided on the inner wall of both ends of the groove, the driving mechanism includes a drive motor, the drive motor is mounted on one side of the bottom surface of the CNC machine tool body and located on one side of each second mounting slot, and an adjusting screw is installed at the output end of the drive motor.

[0009] Preferably, one end of the adjusting screw is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of one end of the second mounting groove, and a screw sleeve is installed on the body of the adjusting screw through a threaded connection. One end of each of the two screw sleeves is fixedly connected to the two end surfaces of the moving plate.

[0010] Preferably, the upper surface of the movable plate is provided with a placement groove, and the collection frame is disposed inside the placement groove.

[0011] Preferably, a second side plate is installed on the upper surface of both ends of the collection frame, and a gripping groove is formed on the upper surface of each second side plate.

[0026] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a chip removal mechanism for CNC machining includes a CNC machine tool body 1. A chip removal groove 2 is provided on the lower side of the interior of the CNC machine tool body 1. A partition 3 is installed inside the chip removal groove 2. A groove 4 is provided on one side of the bottom of the CNC machine tool body 1. A movable plate 5 is provided inside the groove 4. A drive mechanism 6 for controlling the movement of the movable plate 5 is provided on one side of the CNC machine tool body 1. A collection frame 7 is provided inside the movable plate 5.

[0028] like Figure 6 , Figure 9 As shown, a first mounting groove 201 is provided on the inner wall of both ends of the chip removal groove 2. An mounting rod 202 is installed between the inner walls of both ends of each first mounting groove 201. A first side plate 301 is installed on both sides of the lower surface of the partition 3. A sliding mounting sleeve 302 is installed at one end of each first side plate 301. The sliding mounting sleeve 302 is slidably fitted onto the rod of the mounting rod 202.

[0029] The sliding fit between the sliding mounting sleeve 302 and the mounting rod 202 allows the partition 3 to be slidably set inside the chip discharge groove 2. By pulling the partition 3, the chips can be cleaned. After the partition 3 is reset, it can also block the chips collected by the collection frame 7, preventing them from affecting the processing of subsequent workpieces.

[0030] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 10 As shown, a second mounting groove 401 is provided on the inner wall of both ends of the groove 4. The drive mechanism 6 includes a drive motor 601, which is mounted on one side of the bottom surface of the CNC machine tool body 1 and located on one side of each second mounting groove 401. An adjusting screw 602 is installed at the output end of the drive motor 601. One end of the adjusting screw 602 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of one end of the second mounting groove 401. A screw sleeve 603 is threadedly installed on the body of the adjusting screw 602. Two screw sleeves 603 are connected to each other. One end of 03 is fixedly connected to both ends of the moving plate 5. The upper surface of the moving plate 5 is provided with a placement groove 501. The collection frame 7 is set inside the placement groove 501. A second side plate 701 is installed on the upper side of both ends of the collection frame 7. A gripping groove 702 is provided on the upper surface of each second side plate 701. A limiting rod 703 is inserted and installed on both sides of the upper surface of each second side plate 701. A limiting groove 502 that cooperates with one end of the limiting rod 703 is provided on both sides of the upper surface of the moving plate 5.

[0031] Driven by the drive motor 601, the moving plate 5 is moved, allowing the collection frame 7 to move to the outside of the CNC machine tool body 1, facilitating the processing of collected debris. Through the cooperation between the limiting rod 703 and the limiting groove 502, the position of the collection frame 7 inside the placement groove 501 can be limited, making it more convenient to collect debris.

[0032] The working principle of a chip removal mechanism for CNC machining:

[0033] During the machining process of the CNC machine tool body 1, the generated chips fall to the bottom. After machining is completed, the partition 3 is pulled out from the chip discharge groove 2. Under the action of gravity, the chips fall through the chip discharge groove 2 into the collection frame 7. During the pulling process, the chips on the surface of the partition 3 also fall into the collection frame 7. After the chips are collected, the partition 3 is reset, so that the chips will not affect the machining of subsequent workpieces. There is no need for manual operation to collect the chips. After each machining is completed, the chips can be cleaned by simply pulling and resetting the partition 3. This effectively shortens the time required for chip cleaning, increases work efficiency, and also avoids workers getting scratched, making it safer. The adjustment screw 602 is driven to rotate by the drive motor 601. Under the threaded engagement between the adjustment screw 602 and the screw sleeve 603, the screw sleeve 603 can drive the moving plate 5 to move, and the moving plate 5 can be moved out of the groove 4. The collection frame 7 can be taken out of the placement groove 501 through the grip groove 702 on the surface of the second side plate 701, which makes it easier to collect the debris and makes the disassembly and replacement of the collection frame 7 simpler and more convenient during use.

[0034] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to exhaustively list all the implementation methods here. Any obvious variations or modifications derived from the technical solutions of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
