At the same time, the nozzle 4 moves with the tool 2 to ensure the cooling effect during processing, thereby facilitating the cooling of the tool 2 and avoiding the phenomenon of chipping due to uneven heat and force generated by heating.
[0037] Simultaneously, the sprayed-out cooled lubricating oil falls into the annular collection tank 102 and flows into the drainage pipe 11 through the inclined guide hole 103, and finally flows into the collection cylinder 12 for collection. If it is necessary to recover the lubricating oil in the collection cylinder 12, simply remove the collection cylinder 12 from the placement plate 104 and pour it into the designated position, and then reset it. At this time, the positioning protrusion 1201 is engaged and positioned in the positioning groove 105, and the collection cylinder 12 is located below the drainage pipe 11, which facilitates the collection and recovery of the cooled lubricating oil, and the operation is simple and quick.
