Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of equipment waterproofing, and in particular to a waterproof device for chip removal from a machining center faucet. Background Technology

[0002] A vertical machining center is a highly automated, multi-functional CNC machine tool equipped with a tool magazine and an automatic tool changer. When machining parts, the equipment needs to use a faucet chip conveyor to transfer and collect waste chips and cutting fluid. The faucet chip conveyor is located at the bottom of the machining center's discharge port. To prevent the liquid from splashing out and flowing onto the ground when it falls, a waterproof device needs to be installed on the top of the chip conveyor.

[0003] Existing waterproof devices consist of a ring of baffles, which are sturdy and reliable, but they also have other problems during use. For example, they lack height adjustment, making it impossible to adjust the distance between the top and the machining center's discharge port. If the baffle is too high, it is difficult to insert, and if it is too low, it will affect the waterproof effect. They are also inflexible and lack auxiliary drainage function. When the machining center discharges too much waste liquid in a single operation, the chip conveyor cannot handle it due to its capacity, causing the cutting fluid to spread upwards and easily spill. To solve the above problems, we propose a waterproof device for the machining center's faucet chip conveyor. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a waterproof device for chip removal from a machining center faucet, which solves the problems that existing waterproof devices do not have height adjustment function and auxiliary drainage function.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a waterproof device for chip removal in a machining center, comprising a chip conveyor, a guide frame bolted to the top of the chip conveyor and above the feed inlet, an adjusting frame slidably sleeved inside the guide frame, a fixing screw sleeve symmetrically bolted to the bottom of the adjusting frame, a threaded rod threadedly connected inside the fixing screw sleeve, a base plate installed at the bottom of the threaded rod, a collection box bolted to the back of the guide frame, a through groove opened on the front of the collection box, a through hole communicating with the through groove opened on the back of the guide frame, and a metal filter screen installed inside the through hole.

[0006] The above technical solution has a height adjustment function, is simple and convenient to operate, fits more closely to the discharge port to avoid liquid splashing, has good flexibility, and also has an auxiliary drainage function, which reduces the pressure on the chip conveyor below, ensures the normal operation of the chip conveyor, and has high practicality.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that the interior of both the chip conveyor and the guide frame is coated with an anti-corrosion coating.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution and applying anti-corrosion coating, the corrosion resistance and moisture resistance of the chip conveyor and guide frame can be improved.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: four mounting holes are provided on the top of the adjustment frame.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, and through the setting of the mounting holes, when the discharge port at the bottom of the machining center is flat, the adjustment frame can be connected to the outer shell of the machining center by screws.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that a drain valve is connected through one side of the collection box.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the drain valve makes it easy for personnel to discharge the cutting fluid collected in the collection box.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the collection box is made of transparent material.

[0014] The above technical solution makes it easier for personnel to observe and understand the amount of cutting fluid in the collection box.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that the inner diameter of the guide frame is larger than the diameter of the top feed inlet of the chip conveyor.

[0016] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This utility model involves first pushing the side of the chip conveyor with the guide frame into the lower part of the machining center's discharge port. After the position is adjusted, the adjusting frame is lifted upwards. When the adjusting frame is lifted, it will drive the fixing screw sleeve to move upwards. When the top of the adjusting frame is in contact with the bottom of the discharge port, the other hand is used to grasp the base plate and drive the threaded rod to rotate. When the threaded rod rotates, it will drive the base plate to move downwards until it contacts the top of the chip conveyor. It has a height adjustment function, is simple and convenient to operate, fits more closely with the discharge port, avoids liquid splashing, and has good flexibility.

[0018] 2. This utility model provides an auxiliary drainage function by allowing the liquid to flow into the guide frame during its ascent when the machining center discharges excessive liquid. The liquid in the guide frame will flow into the collection box through the through hole and through the groove. Opening the drain valve can discharge the liquid in the collection box, which reduces the pressure on the chip conveyor below and ensures the normal operation of the chip conveyor. It is highly practical. Attached Figure Description
