Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of five-axis machining center technology, and more particularly to a tool magazine for a five-axis machining center. Background Technology
[0002] Five-axis machining centers excel at machining spatial curved surfaces, irregular shapes, hollowing, drilling, angled holes, and beveling. Different types of machining processes require different milling cutters. Therefore, there are many types of milling cutters, and many different types of milling cutters have different diameters. The tool magazine is a device for installing milling cutters.
[0003] The published patent CN222386470U describes a five-axis machining center with a tool magazine structure. The center includes a circular cover and a five-axis machining center with a tool disc mounted on it. The tool disc has at least fifteen fixing slots, which are equidistantly distributed in a ring on the tool disc. Each fixing slot houses one tool. An annular plate is mounted on the tool disc, and the circular cover has an annular groove in which the annular plate is placed. The annular groove on the circular cover is fitted onto the annular plate on the tool disc. At this time, rust remover from a circular tube is sprayed into an atomizing nozzle. The atomizing nozzle atomizes the rust remover, which then removes rust from the tools in the tool disc, preventing moisture from adhering to the tool surface and causing rust, thus protecting the tools. After the tools are processed, a hot air blower dries the tools, preventing rust remover residue from remaining on the tool surface.
[0004] When the above devices are implemented, the rust remover is sprayed onto the cutting tools to achieve the rust removal effect. However, the rust removal of the cutting tools by spraying atomized rust remover will cause the rust remover to fly around randomly and be easily inhaled by the workers. At the same time, it will cause a lot of rust remover to be wasted and not fully utilized. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a tool magazine for a five-axis machining center, which overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art and aims to solve the problems in the background art.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, two guide plates are symmetrically installed on the inner wall of the frame, and the two guide plates are located below the tool magazine body.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the debris generated during the machining of the tool magazine body can be guided to ensure that it falls accurately to the top of the frame.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the discharge trough is connected to the interior of the guide box, and the bottom of the guide box on the side away from the discharge trough has a discharge port.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the debris can be pushed into the discharge trough, then flow along the guide box, and further discharged to the outside through the discharge port, so that it can be used for debris collection.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment, an observation port is installed on the side of the frame near the tool magazine body.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the internal state of the machine frame and the accumulation of debris generated during processing can be viewed from the other side of the machine frame, which further facilitates timely cleaning of debris.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this application are:
[0020] This tool magazine for a five-axis machining center uses a water pump to discharge rust remover from its storage tank through a connecting pipe and an inlet pipe into a wiping cotton strip. This wets the wiping cotton strip, allowing the rust remover to be evenly applied to the outer surface of the tool magazine body as it rotates and comes into contact with the wiping cotton strip. This also allows for cleaning of the outer surface of the tool magazine body, ensuring cleanliness, reducing waste, and preventing the atomized rust remover from flying everywhere.
[0021] This tool magazine for a five-axis machining center uses a brush to push debris into the discharge trough, where it can flow along the guide box and be discharged to the outside through the discharge port, thus enabling the collection of debris. Attached Figure Description
