[0043] Please see Figure 1-3 One embodiment of this utility model provides a machine tool control cabinet, comprising:
[0044] The cabinet 1 includes an operating table 11 and a support base 12 located below the operating table 11. An installation space is formed between the operating table 11 and the support base 12. The operating table 11 has a first working surface 111 and a second working surface 112 adjacent to the first working surface 111. Both the first working surface 111 and the second working surface 112 are inclined, and the included angle α between the first working surface 111 and the second working surface 112 is less than 180°. The first working surface 111 is used to place a keyboard and a mouse, and the second working surface 112 has a mounting slot for mounting a monitor 2. The installation space is used to place a computer host case. The keyboard and the mouse are electrically connected to the computer host case, and the monitor 2 is electrically connected to the computer host case.
[0045] A limiting mechanism is provided within the installation space, and the limiting mechanism is used to restrict the movement of the computer host case within the installation space.
[0046] In this embodiment, by providing a mounting slot for mounting the monitor 2 on the second working surface 112 and an installation space for placing the computer host case between the operating table 11 and the support base 12, and by placing the keyboard and mouse on the first working surface 111, the computer and machine tool operating cabinet are integrated. This eliminates the need for staff to travel back and forth between the office and the workshop, allowing operators to complete machine tool operation and programming in the same location, reducing time and production costs. Furthermore, the limiting mechanism restricts the movement of the computer host case within the installation space, preventing shaking or movement of the computer host case during operation, which could cause damage to the computer host case.
[0047] By placing the monitor 2 in the mounting slot of the second working surface 112, which is tilted, the operator can easily view the information displayed on the monitor 2. By placing the keyboard and mouse on the first working surface 111, which is also tilted and the angle α between the first working surface 111 and the second working surface 112 is less than 180°, the keyboard and mouse can be effectively prevented from slipping off the first working surface 111.
[0048] If necessary, a central control box can also be installed in the installation space. The computer host box is electrically connected to the machine tool through the central control box to ensure stable control of the machine tool.
[0049] It should be understood that the computer host (i.e., the computer host), monitor 2, mouse, and keyboard are the working computers in the existing technology. By installing the corresponding programming software and machine tool operation software on the computer, programming and machine tool operation effects can be achieved.
[0050] Please see Figure 1-3 In one embodiment, the cabinet 1 further includes a front door 13, a side panel 14, and a rear cover 15;
[0051] Two side plates 14 are provided, and the two side plates 14 are respectively provided on both sides of the operating table 11 and the support base 12. The two sides between the operating table 11 and the support base 12 are respectively connected by the two side plates 14.
[0052] The front cabinet door 13 is located at the front side opening between the operating table 11 and the support base 12, and one side of the front cabinet door 13 is hinged to the side panel 14.
[0053] The rear cover plate 15 is disposed on the rear side between the operating table 11 and the support base 12;
[0054] The front cabinet door 13, the side panel 14, the rear cover 15, the operating table 11, and the support base 12 together form the installation space.
[0055] In this embodiment, due to the abundance of dust and metal shavings in the workshop, to prevent dust accumulation or damage to the computer case, the computer case is isolated from the workshop environment by the front cabinet door 13, side panels 14, and rear cover 15. This prevents industrial dust and metal shavings from entering the cabinet, effectively ensuring the service life of the computer case. The front cabinet door 13 is installed at the front side opening between the operating table 11 and the support base 12 for easy viewing and disassembly of the computer case. One side of the front cabinet door 13 is hinged to the adjacent side panel 14, facilitating opening and closing. The front cabinet door 13 is also equipped with a handle for easy opening.
[0056] Please see Figure 1-3 In one embodiment, the side plate 14 is provided with a heat dissipation structure, which includes a plurality of heat dissipation holes 141.
[0057] In this embodiment, by setting a heat dissipation structure on the side plate 14, the computer host case is prevented from overheating and its service life is guaranteed. The heat dissipation structure includes a number of heat dissipation holes 141, which are arranged in an array to increase the heat dissipation effect. The heat dissipation effect is further improved by the heat dissipation structure of the two side plates 14.
[0058] Please see Figure 1-3 In one embodiment, the first working surface 111 is provided with a notch 111-1, the notch 111-1 is adjacent to the mounting groove of the second working surface 112, and the notch 111-1 is connected to the mounting groove and the mounting space respectively.
[0059] In this embodiment, a notch 111-1 is provided on the first working surface 111. The notch 111-1 is adjacent to the mounting slot on the second working surface 112 and is connected to the mounting slot. This allows personnel to place the monitor 2 into and remove it from the mounting slot through the notch 111-1. Furthermore, since the notch 111-1 is connected to the installation space, it allows for electrical connection between the keyboard and mouse (which are wired) and the computer chassis in the installation space, thus optimizing and standardizing the wiring.
[0060] Please see Figure 1-3 In one embodiment, the mounting groove is provided with a first through hole communicating with the mounting space, and the rear cover plate 15 is provided with a second through hole 151.
[0061] In this embodiment, the mounting slot is provided with a first through hole communicating with the mounting space, so that the connection cable (such as signal cable, power cable) of the display 2 can be laid in the mounting space through the first through hole, and so that the signal cable and other cables connected to the computer host box can be electrically connected to the computer host box in the mounting space; the rear cover plate 15 is provided with a second through hole 151, so that the control cable connecting the computer host box to the machine tool and / or the control cable connecting the central control box to the machine tool can extend from the mounting space to the outside and connect to the machine tool through the second through hole 151.
[0062] Please see Figure 1-3 In one embodiment, handles 16 are provided on both sides of the cabinet 1.
[0063] In this embodiment, handles 16 are provided on both sides of the cabinet 1 to facilitate the movement and position adjustment of the operating cabinet by the staff.
[0064] Please see Figure 1-3 In one embodiment, the bottom of the support base 12 is provided with a plurality of casters 121.
[0065] In this embodiment, multiple casters 121 are provided at the bottom of the support base 12 to facilitate the movement and position adjustment of the control cabinet by the staff.
[0066] Depending on the requirements, the caster wheel 121 can be a directional wheel or a swivel wheel as in the prior art.
[0067] As needed, the movable wheel 121 is equipped with a blocking mechanism, which has a locked state and an unlocked state. When the blocking mechanism is in the locked state, the wheel is locked to the fixed base and is stationary relative to the fixed base, so as to fix the operating cabinet in place during operation and ensure working stability and safety. When the blocking mechanism is in the unlocked state, the wheel can rotate relative to the fixed base, so as to allow the operator to move the operating cabinet.
[0068] Please see Figure 1-3 In one embodiment, when the display 2 is installed in the mounting slot of the second working surface 112, the surface of the display 2 is flush with the second working surface 112.
[0069] In this embodiment, by setting the surface of the display 2 flush with the second working surface 112, the working experience of the staff and the aesthetics of the product are improved, and the safety and stability of the display 2 are ensured, preventing the display 2 from falling out of the mounting slot.
[0070] In one embodiment, the support base 12 is provided with a front limiting area (not shown), a left limiting area (not shown), a rear fixing area (not shown) and a right fixing area (not shown).
[0071] The limiting mechanism includes a front limiting block (not shown), a left limiting block (not shown), a rear fixing block (not shown), and a right fixing block (not shown). The front limiting block is installed in the front limiting area, the left limiting block is installed in the left limiting area, the rear fixing block is installed in the rear fixing area, and the right fixing block is installed in the right fixing area.
[0072] The front limiting block is positioned opposite to the rear fixing block, and the left limiting block is positioned opposite to the right fixing block. Each of the front limiting block, the left limiting block, the rear fixing block, and the right fixing block has a limiting surface. The limiting surfaces of the front limiting block, the left limiting block, the rear fixing block, and the right fixing block together form a limiting area. The limiting area is used to prevent the computer host case from moving relative to the cabinet 1 within the installation space.
[0073] In this embodiment, the front, left, rear, and right sides of the computer host case are limited by the front limit block, left limit block, rear fixing block, and right fixing block, respectively, thereby restricting the computer host case within the limited area and preventing the computer host case from moving relative to the cabinet 1 in the installation space. This avoids damage to the internal hardware or shutdown caused by the computer host case moving during operation, thus ensuring service life and operational stability.
[0074] In one embodiment, the front limiting area is provided with a plurality of rows of limiting holes (not shown), and the front limiting block is provided with a through hole (not shown) corresponding to at least one row of limiting holes in the front limiting area. The front limiting block is connected to at least one row of limiting holes in the front limiting area by bolts. The limiting holes in the front limiting area are threaded holes.
[0075] The left limiting area is provided with a plurality of columns of limiting holes (not shown), and the left limiting block is provided with a through hole (not shown) corresponding to at least one column of limiting holes in the left limiting area. The left limiting block is connected to at least one column of limiting holes in the left limiting area by bolts; wherein, the limiting holes in the left limiting area are threaded holes.
[0076] The rear fixing area is provided with a plurality of fixing holes (not shown), and the rear fixing block is provided with through holes (not shown) corresponding to the fixing holes of the rear fixing area. The rear fixing block is connected to the fixing holes of the rear fixing area by bolts; wherein, the fixing holes of the rear fixing area are threaded holes.
[0077] The right fixing area is provided with a plurality of fixing holes (not shown), and the right fixing block is provided with through holes (not shown) corresponding to the fixing holes of the right fixing area. The right fixing block is connected to the fixing holes of the right fixing area by bolts; wherein, the fixing holes of the right fixing area are threaded holes.
[0078] It should be understood that the rows of limiting holes in the front limiting area are arranged in an array along the direction of the rear fixed area, so that the distance between the front limiting block and the rear fixed block can be adjusted through the rows of limiting holes; the columns of limiting holes in the left limiting area are arranged in an array along the direction of the right fixed area, so that the distance between the left limiting block and the right fixed block can be adjusted through the columns of limiting holes.
[0079] In this embodiment, since the front limiting area is provided with several rows of limiting holes, and the rear positioning block is fixedly installed on the rear fixing area by bolts, when there are multiple rows of limiting holes in the front limiting area, the distance of the front limiting block in the front limiting area is adjusted according to the front and rear dimensions of the computer host case, and the front limiting block is fixed on the limiting holes in the front limiting area by bolts. The left limiting block and the right fixing block are the same, thereby improving the adaptability of the limiting mechanism. The size of the corresponding limiting area can be adjusted according to the computer host case to achieve stable fixing of the computer host in the installation space.
[0080] Depending on the needs, the limiting hole in the front limiting area can also be equipped with multiple strip-shaped through slots (not shown). The length direction of the strip-shaped through slots in the front limiting area extends from the front limiting area towards the rear fixed area, allowing the front limiting block to move back and forth along the multiple strip-shaped through slots in the front limiting area, thereby adjusting the distance between the front limiting block and the rear fixed block. This improves the adaptability of the limiting mechanism, allowing the size of the corresponding limiting area to be adjusted according to the computer host case, achieving stable fixation of the computer host within the installation space.
[0081] Similarly, the limiting hole in the left limiting area can also be equipped with multiple strip-shaped through slots (not shown). The length direction of the strip-shaped through slots in the left limiting area extends from the left limiting area towards the right fixed area (i.e., the length direction of the strip-shaped through slots in the left limiting area is perpendicular to the length direction of the strip-shaped through slots in the front limiting area). This allows the left limiting block to move left and right along the multiple strip-shaped through slots in the left limiting area, thereby adjusting the distance between the left limiting block and the right fixed block. This improves the adaptability of the limiting mechanism, allowing the size of the corresponding limiting area to be adjusted according to the computer host case, thus achieving stable fixation of the computer host within the installation space.
[0082] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
