Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CNC machine tool technology, and in particular to a chip removal and cleaning device for CNC machine tools. Background Technology

[0002] CNC machine tools are modern machine tool equipment that integrates computer technology and automation technology. They read machining instructions through a computer control system, drive the movement of various machine tool components, and realize automated machining of workpieces. Compared with traditional machine tools, the biggest advantages of CNC machine tools are high precision and high automation. They can accurately complete the machining of complex curved surfaces and precision parts, and can also operate continuously, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency and product consistency. The machine tool completes various machining processes such as drilling, milling, boring, and grinding according to instructions. Its applications are wide, such as manufacturing engine blades in the aerospace field and producing engine cylinder blocks in the automotive industry. It has powerfully promoted the development of modern manufacturing industry and is a key basic equipment for intelligent manufacturing. In order to clean the chips from lathes, a chip cleaning device for CNC machine tools is needed.

[0003] Currently available CNC machine tool chip removal devices mainly consist of a chip collection box, a drive assembly, and a cleaning assembly. During metal cutting processes such as turning, milling, boring, and drilling, a large amount of chips are generated. Chip removal devices can promptly remove chips from the machining area, preventing chip accumulation from affecting machining accuracy and normal machine operation, and maintaining a clean machining environment. However, the cutting fluid carried in the chips cannot be effectively separated, resulting in excessively high water content in the chips in the chip collection box, affecting subsequent chip processing and wasting cutting fluid. To solve these problems, existing technologies only select a filter device of appropriate precision based on the properties of the cutting fluid and the characteristics of the chips. Larger chip particles are first filtered out through a coarse filter, and then smaller impurities and sludge from the cutting fluid are filtered out through a fine filter. However, the cleaning structure of the chip removal device has not been improved, leading to chip accumulation inside the machine tool. This requires frequent machine stops for cleaning, increasing auxiliary time, reducing the actual machining time of the machine tool, and resulting in decreased production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a chip removal and cleaning device for CNC machine tools, aiming to improve the problem that the existing technology has not improved the chip removal and cleaning structure, resulting in the accumulation of chips in the machine tool, requiring operators to frequently stop the machine for cleaning, increasing auxiliary time, reducing the actual processing time of the machine tool, and leading to a decrease in production efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a chip removal and cleaning device for CNC machine tools, comprising a support frame, an inclined plate fixedly connected to the left side inside the support frame, a filter screen fixedly connected to the right side of the inclined plate, the front and rear sides of the filter screen fixedly connected to the inside of the support frame, a driving component provided in the middle of the rear side of the support frame, a transmission component provided in the right rear side of the support frame, a cleaning component provided in the right middle part of the support frame, a collection component provided in the bottom right side inside the support frame, an auxiliary component provided in the right front side of the support frame, a waste collection box fixedly connected to the right side of the support frame, and a squeezing mechanism provided in the top of the waste collection box, the squeezing mechanism being used to squeeze the waste chips.

[0021] 1.
