Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machine tool processing, and more specifically, to a waste chip treatment structure for double-head machine tool processing. Background Technology
[0002] Double-head lathes are among the most widely used lathes in machinery manufacturing and assembly plants. Unlike traditional lathes, they can simultaneously machine both sides of a workpiece. They are further categorized into automatic, semi-automatic / manual, and combined automatic / semi-automatic types of CNC lathes.
[0003] Chinese patent CN220259559U discloses a CNC dual-spindle automatic turning and docking lathe, which includes a lathe base, a lathe tool post slant plate, drilling machines, spindles, and a drive assembly. The lathe tool post slant plate is located in the middle of the lathe base and is connected to a tool post slot plate via a first lead screw. The lathe tool post slant plate also has a servo motor connected to the first lead screw. A spindle is mounted on the drilling machine, with a driven pulley at one end and a spindle motor above it. A drive pulley is located at the output end of the spindle motor, and the drive pulley is linked to the driven pulley via a belt. The two drilling machines move towards each other along the lathe base via the drive assembly. This lathe improves cutting efficiency by simultaneously machining both sides of the workpiece using dual spindles and cutting tools on them, but it still has the following drawbacks:
[0004] During machining, the workpiece generates a large amount of waste chips, which accumulate continuously on the machine tool. Over time, this accumulation can affect the feed motion of the machining equipment. Furthermore, the lack of waste chip recycling measures means that the generated waste chips cannot be collected and processed centrally, easily leading to resource waste. Therefore, a waste chip treatment structure for dual-head machine tools is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that waste chips accumulate on machine tools, which may affect the feed motion of the processing device, and the waste chips cannot be collected and processed in a centralized manner, which easily leads to the waste of resources.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] The present invention is as follows: a waste chip treatment structure for a double-head machine tool, including a frame, a number of support legs fixedly installed at the bottom of the frame, a support frame fixedly installed at the top of the frame, a dust removal mechanism installed on the support frame and the frame, and a left drive assembly and a right drive assembly installed on the frame, the left drive assembly and the right drive assembly having the same structure and being horizontally opposite each other;
[0008] The dust removal mechanism includes a sliding groove inside the frame. A collection box is installed inside the sliding groove via a guide rail. A pull-out slot is provided on one side of the collection box, and a filter plate is installed inside the collection box. The filter plate is engaged in the collection box via the pull-out slot on one side. During the workpiece processing, the generated waste chips continuously fall into the collection box below. Larger waste chip particles are separated by the filter plate, while smaller particles fall into the collection box after passing through the filter plate. Once the collection box is full of waste chips, it can be directly pulled out to collect the waste chips in a classified manner. The waste chips are then simply classified for subsequent recycling. Alternatively, different specifications of filter plates can be selected and installed in the collection box from the pull-out slot according to different needs.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, both the left drive assembly and the right drive assembly include a fixed base fixedly mounted on the frame. A feed motor is fixedly mounted on one end of the fixed base, and an output screw is installed at the output end of the feed motor. A base is mounted on the fixed base via a guide rail.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the left drive assembly and the right drive assembly further include an electric spindle mounted on the base, and the output end of the electric spindle is fitted with a gripper.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a lifting motor is fixedly installed on the top of the support frame, a lifting screw is installed at the output end of the lifting motor, a mounting seat is installed on the support frame via a slide rail, and a blade plate is fixedly installed on the mounting seat.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a tool holder is installed on the tool rack plate to provide an installation position for the tool.
[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the dust removal mechanism further includes a blower fixedly installed on one side of the blade plate, and the blower is symmetrically installed on both sides of the blade plate.
[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a lighting lamp is fixedly installed at one end of the base. The lighting lamp is connected to an external power source to provide a lighting environment for the processing of the entire workpiece.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] 1. The cleaning mechanism sorts the waste in sequence so that it can be recycled later. Different filter plates of different specifications can be selected and installed in the collection box from the pull-out slot according to different needs. The blower blows air on the workpiece processing position to blow the waste generated during processing into the collection box inside the frame, preventing the waste from flying around and injuring people during processing.
[0017] 2. Collect waste chips in a timely manner to prevent them from accumulating around the machine tool. Keep the work area clean and spacious to effectively collect and filter waste chips. Collect the waste chips generated during processing in a centralized manner to facilitate subsequent recycling and processing. Attached Figure Description

The left drive assembly 5 and the right drive assembly 6 have the same structure and are horizontally opposite each other.
[0029] The dust removal mechanism 4 includes a slide 401 inside the frame 1. A collection box 402 is installed inside the slide 401 via a guide rail. A pull-out groove 403 is provided on one side of the collection box 402. A filter plate 404 is installed inside the collection box 402 and is engaged with the collection box 402 via the pull-out groove 403. During the workpiece processing, the generated waste chips will continuously fall into the collection box 402 below. Larger waste chip particles are separated by the filter plate 404, while smaller particles fall into the collection box 402 after passing through the filter plate 404. The collection box 402 can be pulled out periodically or after it is full of waste chips to collect the waste chips in a classified manner. The waste chips are sorted in sequence for subsequent recycling. Alternatively, filter plates 404 of different specifications can be selected and installed in the collection box 402 from the pull-out groove 403 according to different needs.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, a lighting lamp 12 is further fixedly installed at one end of the base 504. The lighting lamp 12 is connected to an external power source to provide a good lighting environment for the processing of the entire workpiece.
[0036] In use: The workpiece is clamped and fixed by the gripper 506. The feed motor 502 works, driving the output screw 503 to rotate. Then, guided by the guide rails on both sides, the base 504 slides on the fixed seat 501. The electric spindle 505 works, driving the workpiece to rotate through the gripper 506. The lifting motor 7 works, driving the lifting screw 8 to move. The lifting screw 8 drives the blade plate 10 to move up and down, and the cutting tool performs the processing.
