Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of linear tool magazine engraving machines, specifically to a linear tool magazine engraving machine. Background Technology

[0002] The linear tool magazine CNC engraving machine is a CNC engraving device that integrates a linearly arranged tool magazine. It achieves high-precision machining by controlling the three-axis linkage (X / Y / Z axes) through computer programming, with the spindle driving the cutting tools.

[0003] To prevent cutting fluid and chips from falling onto the tool magazine and tool holder during the cutting process, which could lead to tool holder rust and the inability to change tools after a period of time, traditional engraving machines typically use a push-pull cylinder to open and close the tool magazine door, allowing the tool magazine to move in and out and preventing cutting fluid and chips from falling onto the tool magazine and tool holder during the cutting process. However, the push-pull operation of the push-pull cylinder is difficult to coordinate precisely with the tool magazine's movement, which can easily lead to malfunctions. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a straight-line tool magazine engraving machine.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a linear tool magazine engraving machine, comprising a base, a gantry frame connected to the base, a Y-axis linear module connected to the base and passing through the gantry frame, a linear tool magazine body connected to the output end of the Y-axis linear module, a dust cover connected to the back of the crossbeam of the gantry frame, a protective door hinged to the front end of the dust cover, and a linkage mechanism connecting the protective door and the linear tool magazine body. The Y-axis linear module is used to drive the linear tool magazine body to move along the Y-axis direction, and the protective door is linked and cooperated with the linear tool magazine body through the linkage mechanism.

[0006] Preferably, a hinge connects the front end face of the dust cover and the dust-blocking surface of the protective door.

[0007] Preferably, the front rear of the protective door is recessed to form a clearance space for avoiding the straight-line tool magazine body.

[0008] Preferably, the protective door has a hinge arm extending from its side wall, and the linkage mechanism includes a first connecting rod and a connecting rod fixedly connected to the side wall of the straight-line tool magazine body. The two ends of the first connecting rod are respectively hinged to the front end of the hinge arm and the middle of the connecting rod.

[0009] Preferably, the end of the connecting rod away from the straight-line tool magazine body is bent upward to form a bent portion, and a limiting guide post for limiting the backward tilting angle of the first connecting rod is inserted into the side of the bent portion.

[0010] Preferably, the linear tool magazine engraving machine further includes an X-axis linear module connected to the front of the crossbeam of the gantry, an X-axis slide connected to the output end of the X-axis linear module, a Z-axis linear module connected to the X-axis slide, a Z-axis slide connected to the output end of the Z-axis linear module, a clamp fixedly connected to the Z-axis slide, and a machining spindle fixedly connected to the clamp.

[0011] Preferably, the Z-axis slide extends to both sides and is used to cover both sides of the Z-axis linear module; the top of the Z-axis linear module is covered with a motor dust cover, and a bellows cover is connected between the motor dust cover and the Z-axis slide.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The inline tool magazine engraving machine of this utility model adopts a base, a gantry frame connected to the base, a Y-axis linear module connected to the base and passing through the gantry frame, an inline tool magazine body connected to the output end of the Y-axis linear module, a dust cover connected to the back of the crossbeam of the gantry frame, a protective door hinged to the front end of the dust cover, and a linkage mechanism connecting the protective door and the inline tool magazine body. When the Y-axis linear module drives the inline tool magazine body to move forward along the Y-axis direction, the inline tool magazine body, through the linkage mechanism, causes the protective door to gradually flip forward and upward to form a channel for the inline tool magazine body to move forward to the front of the gantry frame; when the Y-axis linear module drives the inline tool magazine body to move backward along the Y-axis direction, the inline tool magazine body, through the linkage mechanism, causes the protective door to gradually flip down until it closes, blocking the cutting fluid and chips outside the protective door and dust cover, so as to protect the inline tool magazine body from interference by cutting fluid and chips.

[0017] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and accompanying drawings. The content mentioned in the embodiments is not intended to limit the present invention.

[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a linear tool magazine engraving machine includes a base 1, a gantry frame 2 connected to the base 1, a Y-axis linear module 3 connected to the base 1 and passing through the gantry frame 2, a linear tool magazine body 4 connected to the output end of the Y-axis linear module 3, a dust cover 5 connected to the back of the crossbeam of the gantry frame 2, a protective door 6 hinged to the front end of the dust cover 5, and a linkage mechanism 7 connecting the protective door 6 and the linear tool magazine body 4. The Y-axis linear module 3 is used to drive the linear tool magazine body 4 to move along the Y-axis direction, and the protective door 6 is linked with the linear tool magazine body 4 through the linkage mechanism 7.

[0019] This linear tool magazine engraving machine comprises a base 1, a gantry frame 2 connected to the base 1, a Y-axis linear module 3 connected to the base 1 and passing through the gantry frame 2, a linear tool magazine body 4 connected to the output end of the Y-axis linear module 3, a dust cover 5 connected to the back of the crossbeam of the gantry frame 2, a protective door 6 hinged to the front end of the dust cover 5, and a linkage mechanism 7 connecting the protective door 6 and the linear tool magazine body 4. When the Y-axis linear module 3 drives the linear tool magazine body 4 to move forward along the Y-axis direction... When the linear tool magazine body 4 moves forward and upward through the linkage mechanism 7, the protective door 6 gradually flips up to form a channel, allowing the linear tool magazine body 4 to move forward to the front of the gantry 2. When the Y-axis linear module 3 drives the linear tool magazine body 4 to move backward along the Y-axis, the linear tool magazine body moves backward through the linkage mechanism 7, causing the protective door 6 to gradually flip down until it closes, blocking the cutting fluid and chips outside the protective door 6 and the dust cover 5, thus protecting the linear tool magazine body 4 from interference by cutting fluid and chips.

[0020] Furthermore, a hinge 8 connects the front end face of the dust cover 5 and the dust-blocking surface of the protective door 6. The dust cover 5 and the protective door 6 are hinged together by the hinge 8.

[0021] Furthermore, the front end of the back of the protective door 6 is recessed to form a clearance space 9 for avoiding the straight-line tool magazine body 4, which helps to prevent the protective door 6 from colliding with the straight-line tool magazine body 4 or the tool handles on it during the linkage process.

[0022] Furthermore, the protective door 6 has a hinge arm 10 extending from its side wall. The linkage mechanism 7 includes a first connecting rod 71 and a connecting rod 72 fixedly connected to the side wall of the linear tool magazine body 4. The two ends of the first connecting rod 71 are respectively hinged to the front end of the hinge arm 10 and the middle of the connecting rod 72. The protective door 6 is linked with the linear tool magazine body 4 through the cooperation of the first connecting rod 71 and the connecting rod 72.

[0023] Furthermore, the end of the connecting rod 72 away from the straight tool magazine body 4 is bent upward to form a bent portion 11. A limiting guide post 12 for limiting the backward tilting angle of the first connecting rod 71 is inserted into the side of the bent portion 11 to avoid the first connecting rod 71 tilting backward excessively during the backward movement of the straight tool magazine body 4, which would cause the protective door 6 to tilt downward and close prematurely, thus preventing malfunctions. This also prevents the straight tool magazine body 4 from remaining outside the protective door 6 after the protective door 6 is closed.

[0024] Furthermore, the linear tool magazine engraving machine also includes an X-axis linear module 13 connected to the front of the crossbeam of the gantry 2, an X-axis slide 14 connected to the output end of the X-axis linear module 13, a Z-axis linear module 15 connected to the X-axis slide 14, a Z-axis slide 16 connected to the output end of the Z-axis linear module 15, a clamp 17 fixedly connected to the Z-axis slide 16, and a machining spindle 18 fixedly connected to the clamp 17.

[0025] Furthermore, the Z-axis slide 16 extends to both sides to cover both sides of the Z-axis linear module 15; the top of the Z-axis linear module 15 is covered with a motor dust cover 19 to protect the drive motor of the Z-axis linear module 15, and a bellows cover 20 connects the motor dust cover 19 and the Z-axis slide 16, which helps to protect the Z-axis linear module 15 from interference by cutting fluid and chips. It should be noted that the X-axis linear module 13, Y-axis linear module 3, and Z-axis linear module 15 are all prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0026] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this utility model are within the protection scope of this utility model.
