Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of slow wire EDM cooling technology, and in particular to a slow wire EDM cooling device. Background Technology
[0002] The slow wire EDM machine generates high temperature through pulse discharge between the electrode wire and the workpiece, causing the workpiece material to partially melt or vaporize. Then, the working fluid is used to flush away the melted or vaporized material, thus achieving the cutting process of the workpiece. The electrode wire moves unidirectionally at a low speed, constantly updating the discharge area between the electrode wire and the workpiece, ensuring the cutting accuracy and surface quality.
[0003] During machining, the discharge between the electrode wire and the workpiece causes a rapid increase in local temperature. If the temperature is not cooled in time, the workpiece is prone to thermal deformation, altering its size and shape and affecting machining accuracy. Cooling devices can effectively control the temperature, reduce thermal deformation, and keep workpiece temperature changes within a minimal range, ensuring machining accuracy.
[0004] In the existing technology, the residue generated during the processing of the wire EDM cooling device will mix into the coolant. These impurities in the coolant will settle in the cooling pipes, causing blockages, unstable coolant flow, affecting the uniformity of cooling, and the residue in the pipes will impact the electrode wire during cooling, causing the electrode wire to break.

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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0025] Reference Figures 1-3This utility model provides an embodiment of a slow wire EDM cooling device, comprising a housing 1, an mounting block 2 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 1, a guide block 3 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting block 2, an impeller 4 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the guide block 3, a rotating rod 5 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the impeller 4, a rotating rod 6 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 5, a rotating wheel 7 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating rod 6, a cleaning rod 8 slidably connected to the outer wall of the rotating wheel 7, a slide rail 9 slidably connected to the outer wall of the cleaning rod 8, the slide rail 9 being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 1, a filter screen 10 slidably connected to the lower surface of the cleaning rod 8, the filter screen 10 being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 1, a support frame 12 slidably connected to the lower surface of the housing 1, a mounting base 11 slidably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 12, and the mounting base 11 being slidably connected to the inner wall of the housing 1. The outer wall of the support frame 12 is provided with an early warning component, which includes a cutting seat 14. The outer wall of the cutting seat 14 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 12. The inner wall of the cutting seat 14 is provided with an electrode wire. The outer wall of the electrode wire is provided with the inner wall of the mounting seat 11. The outer wall of the cutting seat 14 is provided with an EDM machine 15. The outer wall of the EDM machine 15 is provided with a fault alarm. The outer wall of the support frame 12 is provided with a control panel 13. The upper surface of the support frame 12 is provided with a refrigeration unit 16. The inner wall of the refrigeration unit 16 is provided with a pipe 17. The outer wall of the pipe 17 is provided with a solenoid valve 18. The lower surface of the solenoid valve 18 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame 12. The outer wall of the pipe 17 is provided with a water tank 19. The lower surface of the water tank 19 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame 12. The outer wall of the pipe 17 is provided with a thermostat 20. The outer wall of the pipe 17 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 12.
[0026] Specifically, the motor wire is installed into the mounting base 11 and the cutting base 14. The cutting base 14 is controlled to cut via the control panel 13, and the EDM machine 15 is started to energize the electrode wire. The fault alarm on the outer wall of the EDM machine 15 can quickly alert the operator. At the same time, the solenoid valve 18 is opened, allowing the refrigeration unit 16 to allow water to flow through the pipe 17 into the water tank 19. The water tank 19 is then transmitted through the pipe 17 to the support frame 12, which cools the electrode wire during cutting. The coolant and residue fall onto the upper surface of the guide block 3, which is fixed to the inner wall of the mounting block 2. The mounting block 2 is also fixed to the inner wall of the outer casing 1, preventing the guide block 3 from falling off. The guide block 3 allows the coolant to pass through the impeller 4, causing it to rotate. This drives the rotating rod 5 to rotate, which in turn pulls the rotating rod 6 to rotate. Pulling the rotating wheel 7 and sliding it against the inner wall of the cleaning rod 8 allows the cleaning rod 8 to slide back and forth. The inner wall of the outer shell 1 is equipped with a filter screen 10, and the cleaning rod 8 slides back and forth on the surface of the filter screen 10, which can achieve the effect of cleaning residue. The cleaning rod 8 slides against the inner wall of the slide rail 9, and the slide rail 9 is fixed to the inner wall of the outer shell 1, which can achieve the effect of preventing the cleaning rod 8 from deviating. The filtered coolant will flow out through the pipe 17 set in the inner wall of the outer shell 1, and the coolant will enter the water tank 19 after the temperature is controlled by the thermostat 20, which can achieve the effect of water resource reuse. The filter screen 10 can prevent the residue in the coolant from settling in the pipe 17 and causing blockage, thus achieving the effect of maintaining the uniformity and stability of cooling. At the same time, it can also prevent the residue in the pipe 17 from impacting the electrode wire.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 A collection box 21 is detachably installed on the outer wall of the outer shell 1. A locking block 22 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the collection box 21. A hollow block 28 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the locking block 22. The outer wall of the hollow block 28 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outer shell 1. A pull rod 27 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the locking block 22. The outer wall of the pull rod 27 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the hollow block 28.
[0028] Specifically, by installing the collection box 21 onto the inner wall of the outer casing 1, the residue cleaned by the cleaning rod 8 can fall into the collection box 21, thus facilitating the collection of residue. After the collection box 21 is installed, it will cause the locking block 22 to insert into the hollow block 28 and push the pull rod 27 to slide on the inner wall of the hollow block 28. After reaching the appropriate position, the pull rod 27 will fall back down, thereby allowing the pull rod 27 to lock the locking block 22 to achieve a self-locking effect.
[0029] Reference Figure 4A push rod 23 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the collection box 21. The outer wall of the push rod 23 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the hollow block 28. An inclined rod 25 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the push rod 23. A slider 24 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the inclined rod 25. The outer wall of the slider 24 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the hollow block 28. The outer wall of the push rod 23 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the locking block 22. A spring 26 is provided on the outer wall of the inclined rod 25. The right outer wall of the spring 26 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow block 28.
[0030] Specifically, while the pull rod 27 engages the locking block 22, the collection box 21 pushes the push rod 23 to slide on the inner wall of the hollow block 28. The push rod 23 then pushes the tilting rod 25 to slide, causing the tilting rod 25 to compress the spring 26 installed on the inner wall of the hollow block 28. When the collection box 21 is driven, the spring 26 pushes the tilting rod 25 to slide, achieving a quick reset effect. While compressing the spring 26, the tilting rod 25 drives the slider 24 to slide on the inner wall of the hollow block 28, causing the slider 24 to engage the locking block 22, achieving a quick fixation effect. The locking block 22 allows for quick installation and removal of the collection box 21, enabling operators to quickly complete the cleaning work without affecting the operation of the wire EDM machine, thereby reducing downtime and improving overall processing efficiency.
[0031] Working principle: When the device is needed, the collection box 21 is installed inside the outer casing 1, and the locking block 22 is inserted into the hollow block 28. The locking block 22 pushes the pull rod 27 to slide against the inner wall of the hollow block 28. When it reaches the appropriate position, the pull rod 27 falls down, locking the locking block 22, achieving a self-locking effect. The collection box 21 then pushes the push rod 23 to slide, causing the push rod 23 to push the tilting rod 25 to slide. This causes the tilting rod 25 to compress the spring 26, simultaneously locking the locking block 22, thus achieving... To achieve the effect of quickly fixing and preventing the collection box 21 from falling off, the item to be cut is installed on the mounting block 2, and then the electrode is installed in the cutting seat 14 and the mounting seat 11. The outer wall of the cutting seat 14 is equipped with an EDM machine 15, and the outer wall of the EDM machine 15 is equipped with a fault alarm. The control panel 13 is operated to start the electrode wire cutting, so that the water in the refrigeration unit 16 flows into the water tank 19 through the pipe 17. The water tank 19 will transfer the cooling water to the cutting seat 14 through the pipe 17, so that the electrode wire can cut. To achieve a cooling effect, the sprayed water, along with the residue, falls onto the surface of the guide block 3, causing the water flow to drive the impeller 4 to rotate. The impeller 4, in turn, drives the rotating rod 5 to rotate, pulling the rotating rod 6 to rotate as well. This causes the rotating rod 6 to drive the rotating wheel 7 to slide on the inner wall of the cleaning rod 8, allowing the cleaning rod 8 to slide on the inner wall of the slide rail 9. This enables the cleaning rod 8 to reciprocate and clean the filter screen 10. The residue cleaned by the cleaning rod 8 falls into the collection box 21, facilitating easy collection and cleaning. The filtered water then enters the water tank 19 through the pipe 17, where it is cooled again by the temperature controller 20, achieving the effect of reusing water resources. Furthermore, connecting new cooling equipment to the outer wall of the pipe 17 allows for multi-unit control. This device not only prevents residue in the coolant from settling in the pipe 17, maintaining uniform and stable cooling, but also facilitates quick and easy cleaning, reducing downtime and improving overall processing efficiency.
