Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of chip removal devices, and relates to a chip removal device for horizontal lathes. Background Technology
[0002] The chip removal device on a horizontal lathe is used to promptly remove metal chips generated during machining to ensure the normal operation of the lathe and prevent mechanical failures caused by chip accumulation. Among these, the chip conveyor is a key auxiliary device in the machining field, mainly used to collect and transport the mixture of metal / non-metal waste chips and coolant generated during machine tool cutting. Chain-plate type chip conveyors are suitable for coiled and clump-shaped heavy chips. This equipment is widely used in CNC machine tools, machining centers, and automated production lines, and is an important component of modern intelligent manufacturing systems.
[0003] Currently, a Chinese patent with publication number CN218225746U discloses a chip removal device for a horizontal CNC lathe. The device includes a chip removal body, a chip cart on one side, and a fixed head fixed to both sides of the rear end face of the chip cart. The fixed head has a spring groove inside, and an opening extending to the outer surface of the fixed head is located in the middle of the upper inner wall of the spring groove. A limiting plate is located inside the spring groove, and a fixed spring is connected to both sides of the lower end face of the limiting plate. A rectangular fixing block is fixed to the upper end face of the limiting plate. A circular insertion port is located on both sides of the front end face of the chip removal body, and the two fixed heads are inserted into the two circular insertion ports respectively. A strip groove A is located on one side of the upper end face of the chip removal body. The present invention provides a chip removal device for horizontal CNC lathes, which can fix the chip cart and prevent waste chips from falling to the ground, thus solving the above problems. However, in actual use, the traditional manual adjustment of the height of the chip conveyor body is cumbersome, increases the downtime for equipment maintenance, and is difficult to adapt to the height of different lathes in a timely manner. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a chip removal device for horizontal lathes, which aims to solve the problem that in actual use, the traditional manual adjustment of the height of the chip conveyor body is cumbersome, increases equipment downtime for maintenance, and is difficult to adapt to the height of different lathes in a timely manner.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a chip removal device for horizontal lathes.
[0006] This utility model is further configured as a chip removal device for a horizontal lathe, including a chip conveyor body. Four sets of support plates are fixedly connected to the bottom of the chip conveyor body. A pushing assembly is fixedly connected to the bottom of each support plate. A rotating shaft is sleeved on the bottom of the pushing assembly. A branch pipe is sleeved inside one end of the chip conveyor body. A conveying assembly is connected through one end of the branch pipe. The pushing assembly includes a movable bolt fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate. A transmission rod is rotatably connected to one side of the bottom of the movable bolt, and a pushing rod is rotatably connected to one side of the bottom of the transmission rod. The conveying assembly includes a conveying pipe connected through one end of the branch pipe. A filter sleeve is connected through one end of the conveying pipe, and a conveying pump is connected through one end of the filter sleeve.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model, one end of the delivery pump is connected to a connecting pipe, and one end of the connecting pipe is fixedly connected to a collection bucket. The collection bucket facilitates the collection of waste and cleaning fluid.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a coarse filter screen is fitted inside the collection bucket, and a flared ring is fitted on the top of the collection bucket. The flared ring increases the inlet area.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, several sets of high-pressure nozzles are equidistantly arranged at the bottom of the branch pipe along the axial direction, and a transmission gear one is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft. A transmission gear two meshes with the surface of the transmission gear one. The arrangement of the transmission gear two facilitates transmission.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a drive motor is fixedly connected to one side of the transmission gear two, and a motor housing is fitted onto the surface of the drive motor. The motor housing serves to protect the drive motor.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, both ends of the rotating shaft are rotatably connected to support sleeves, and the top of the support sleeve is slidably connected to a telescopic column. The telescopic column is fixedly connected to the bottom of the chip conveyor body. The telescopic column facilitates sliding within the support sleeve and maintains stable lifting.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a base is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support sleeve, and positioning blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the base. The positioning blocks facilitate installation and fixation.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a support shell is fixedly connected to the top of one end of the chip conveyor body. Two sets of blowing fans are installed inside the support shell. The blowing fans accelerate the drying of the surface of the chain conveyor belt.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a chip removal device for horizontal lathes. By setting up a push assembly, during use, the drive motor is started according to the height of the lathe. The drive motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate through multiple sets of gears, and the rotating shaft drives the push rod. The two ends of the transmission rod rotate on the movable bolt and the push rod respectively, thereby pushing the chip conveyor body. At the same time, the telescopic column slides in the support sleeve to maintain stable lifting and lowering, thereby achieving the effect of convenient adjustment of the height of the chip conveyor body, reducing the workload of manual adjustment, adapting to the height of different lathes, avoiding the cumbersome operation of traditional manual adjustment, and reducing equipment downtime for maintenance.
[0015] This chip removal device for horizontal lathes, through the setting of the conveying components, activates the conveyor pump to draw cleaning fluid from the collection tank when the chain conveyor belt inside the chip conveyor body needs cleaning. The fluid is then filtered through the filter element in the filter sleeve and conveyed to the conveyor pipe, reaching the branch pipe. From there, it is sprayed out from the high-pressure nozzle at the bottom of the branch pipe to rinse the surface of the chain conveyor belt. At the same time, the blower is activated to dry the water stains on the surface of the chain conveyor belt, thereby achieving the effect of cleaning the chain conveyor belt. This prevents excessive accumulation of waste and other impurities on the surface or in the gaps of the chain conveyor belt, which could cause equipment jamming or wear, thus improving the service life of the device.
