Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of grinding machine technology, and more specifically to a grinding machine chip collection device. Background Technology

[0002] A grinding machine is a machine tool that uses a high-speed rotating grinding wheel to perform precision grinding on the surface of a workpiece.

[0003] Patent document (CN211388015U) discloses an external cylindrical grinding machine with a chip collection system, including a hopper and a chip collection box. The hopper is located on the lower surface of the machining chamber, and chips fall from the hopper and accumulate in the chip collection box. However, when the chip collection box is elongated and can be gradually pulled out, the operator faces challenges during chip removal. Due to the heavy overall weight of the chip collection box, especially if it has an opening door at one end, the operator first pours the chips from the outer part of the chip collection box onto a transfer device, and then uses a shovel to push the chips from the end of the chip collection box away from the opening door to the transfer device.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for a grinding machine chip collection device that is suitable for long hoppers, can discharge chips from both the inner and outer sides simultaneously, and has a higher chip transfer efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main objective of this application is to provide a grinding machine chip collection device, wherein the grinding machine chip collection device includes a base, a clamping module, a grinding module, and a hopper.

The bottom wall of the material cavity has a discharge port at one end near the discharge port, and a baffle is rotatably mounted on the discharge port. The bottom wall of the receiving cavity away from the discharge port has a discharge channel. When the hopper slides a predetermined distance away from the grinding module, the baffle flips downward at a predetermined angle, opening the discharge port and connecting it with the discharge channel.

[0012] In one or more embodiments of this application, the clamping module includes two slides, and each of the two slides is provided with an arc-shaped guide plate at one end facing each other, with the arc surface of the arc-shaped guide plate close to the material discharge port.

[0013] In one or more embodiments of this application, each of the slide blocks has a slide groove and a first elastic member, the arc-shaped guide plate is slidably disposed in the slide groove, and the two ends of the first elastic member are respectively connected to the arc-shaped guide plate and the bottom wall of the slide groove.

[0014] In one or more embodiments of this application, the hopper includes an opening and closing door and a hopper body, the opening and closing door being located at one end of the hopper body away from the discharge port, and the opening and closing door being rotatably mounted on the hopper body.

[0015] In one or more embodiments of this application, one side of the bucket body has an extension end, the opening and closing door has an insertion hole, and the extension end has a pin hole.

[0028] Schematic diagram of a grinding machine chip collection device, reference Figures 1 to 4 A preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a grinding chip collection device, comprising a base 10, a clamping module 20, and a grinding module 30.

[0029] Specifically, the clamping module 20 is slidably disposed on the base 10 along the length direction of the base 10; the grinding module 30 is slidably disposed on the base 10 along the width direction of the base 10.

[0030] It should be noted that the workpiece is held by the clamping module 20, and the surface of the workpiece is ground by the grinding module 30. Before processing, the grinding module 30 is spaced a predetermined distance from the clamping module 20. During processing, the grinding module 30 is moved a predetermined distance toward the clamping module 20.

[0031] In addition, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the seat 10 has a slide rail, and the clamping module 20 includes two slide blocks 201 and two linear drive devices. The two slide blocks 201 are slidably disposed on the slide rail by the two linear drive devices. The linear drive devices include, but are not limited to, hydraulic cylinders. When the linear drive devices are activated, the slide blocks 201 slide along the length direction of the slide rail.

[0032] In addition, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the grinding module 30 further includes a lead screw 301, a sliding seat 302, and a first rotary drive device 303. The lead screw 301 is rotatably mounted on the seat 10. The seat 10 has a guide groove 101 in the width direction. The sliding seat 302 is equipped with a second rotary device and a grinding wheel 3021. The rotating shaft of the second rotary device is connected to the grinding wheel 3021. One end of the sliding seat 302 extends into the guide groove 101, and the lead screw 301 passes through the sliding seat 302 and is connected to the sliding seat 302 in a lead screw 301-slider manner. The lead screw 301 is also powered by the first rotary drive device 303 through gear transmission. When the rotating shaft of the first rotary drive device 303 rotates, the sliding seat 302 moves closer to or further away from the clamping module 20. When the rotating shaft of the second rotary drive device rotates, the grinding wheel 3021 rotates circumferentially.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the base 10 has a discharge port 102 and a receiving cavity 103. The discharge port 102 is located between the clamping module 20 and the grinding module 30. One end of the receiving cavity 103 is connected to the discharge port 102, and the other end of the receiving cavity 103 extends to one side of the base 10. Additionally, the grinding machine chip collection device also includes a hopper 40, which is slidably disposed within the receiving cavity 103. The hopper 40 has a material chamber 401 with an opening at the top, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the bottom wall of the material cavity 401 has a discharge port 402 at one end near the discharge port 102, and a baffle 403 is rotatably installed on the discharge port 402. The bottom wall of the receiving cavity 103 away from the discharge port 102 has a discharge channel 104. When the hopper 40 slides a predetermined distance away from the grinding module 30, the baffle 403 flips downward at a predetermined angle, and the discharge port 402 opens and communicates with the discharge channel 104.

[0034] In addition, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the hopper 40 includes an opening and closing door 404 and a hopper body 405. The opening and closing door 404 is located at one end of the hopper body 405 away from the discharge port 102, and the opening and closing door 404 is rotatably mounted on the hopper body 405.

[0035] It should be noted that when the grinding wheel 3021 grinds the surface of the workpiece, the generated chips fall into the discharge port 102 under gravity. It should also be noted that the hopper 40 is normally completely submerged in the receiving cavity 103, with the end of the hopper 40 closest to the discharge port 102 directly opposite the discharge port 102. Furthermore, at this time, the baffle 403 is supported by the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 103, thereby closing the discharge port 402. When a large amount of chips accumulates along the length of the material cavity 401, the operator needs to remove the hopper 40 and open the opening / closing door 404 to transfer the waste chips from the side of the material cavity 401 closest to the opening / closing door 404 to an external transfer device. It should also be noted that after the hopper 40 is removed a predetermined distance, the baffle 403 is directly opposite the discharge port 102 in the height direction. In the material discharge channel 104, since the baffle 403 is no longer supported by the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 103, the baffle 403 rotates at a predetermined angle towards the material discharge channel 104 under the weight of the debris, and opens the discharge port 402. The debris located inside the material cavity 401, that is, the end of the material cavity 401 near the discharge port 102, will fall into the material discharge channel 104 along the discharge port 402. At this time, the operator can place a receiving bucket at the outlet end of the material discharge channel 104 and open the valve at the outlet end of the material discharge channel 104. The debris will then be discharged along the material discharge channel 104 to the external receiving bucket. At the same time, the operator can use a shovel to push the debris located outside the material cavity 401 to the external transfer device. It is evident that, compared with the prior art, this application has the advantage of being suitable for long and narrow hoppers, being able to discharge debris from both the inner and outer sides simultaneously, and having higher debris transfer efficiency.

[0036] Furthermore, to facilitate the discharge of debris from the material chamber 401 and the subsequent repositioning of the baffle 403 to close the outlet 402, a torsion spring is provided at the rotatable connection between the baffle 403 and the hopper 40, with both ends of the torsion spring connected to the baffle 403 and the hopper 40 respectively.

[0037] In addition, to achieve the goal of closing one end of the material cavity 401 under normal conditions, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the bucket body 405 has an extension end 4051 on one side, the opening and closing door 404 has an insertion hole 4041, and the extension end 4051 has a pin hole. When the opening and closing door 404 rotates at a predetermined angle, the extension end 4051 extends into or exits the insertion hole 4041.

[0038] It should be noted that when the opening and closing door 404 closes one end of the material cavity 401, the extension end 4051 passes through the insertion hole 4041. At this time, a pin can be inserted into the pin hole and the side wall of the pin can be made to abut against the opening and closing door 404 to achieve the closure of the opening and closing door 404.

[0039] Additionally, to facilitate the removal of the opening / closing door 404, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the opening and closing door 404 also has a grip portion 4042, which is a handle.

[0040] It should be noted that when the gripping part 4042 is held and the hopper 40 is pulled out, the pin is still inserted in the pin hole. After the hopper 40 is pulled out a predetermined distance, the pin is pulled out and the opening and closing door 404 is opened, which makes it easier to clean the debris on the outside of the hopper 40.

[0041] Furthermore, since the end of the material cavity 401 near the discharge port 102 is prone to accumulating into a mountain-like shape, in order to facilitate the leveling of debris, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the opening and closing door 404 also has a through hole 4043 for the shovel to pass through, so that the operator can level the mountain-shaped debris by moving the shovel without having to open the opening and closing door 404 normally.

[0042] Furthermore, to increase the probability of processing debris falling into the discharge port 102, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, each of the two slide blocks 201 has an arc-shaped guide plate 2011 at one end facing each other, and the arc surface of the arc-shaped guide plate 2011 is close to the material discharge port 102.

[0043] In addition, to avoid motion interference between the two arc-shaped guide plates 2011 when the workpiece is short, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, each of the slide blocks 201 has a slide groove 2012 and a first elastic member 2013. The arc-shaped guide plate 2011 is slidably disposed in the slide groove 2012, and the two ends of the first elastic member 2013 are respectively connected to the bottom wall of the arc-shaped guide plate 2011 and the slide groove 2012.

[0044] It should be noted that when the length of the workpiece is short and the two arc-shaped guide plates 2011 are in contact with each other, the two arc-shaped guide plates 2011 can also compress the first elastic member 2013, so that the arc-shaped guide plates 2011 are retracted into the groove 2012 by a predetermined distance.

[0045] In summary, the grinding machine chip collection device based on the embodiments of this application is explained, which provides advantages such as being suitable for long strip hoppers, being able to discharge chips from both the inner and outer sides simultaneously, and having higher chip transfer efficiency.

[0046] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The function and structural principle of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments, and any modifications or variations may be made to the implementation of the present invention without departing from these principles.
