Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chip removal technology for CNC lathes, and more specifically, it relates to a chip removal and cleaning device for CNC lathes used in mold manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] CNC lathes are among the most widely used CNC machine tools. There are various types of CNC lathe chip collection devices on the market, but the existing CNC lathe chip collection devices generally have the disadvantage of low practicality. When collecting chips, the existing CNC lathe chip collection devices cannot separate the cutting fluid mixed with the chips, which leads to the need for frequent cleaning of the collection box.

[0003] In response, Chinese patent application number CN202322580575.2 discloses a chip collection device for CNC lathe machining, including a CNC lathe body, a machining chamber, and a chip removal channel. The chip removal port of the chip removal channel is connected to the right side of the CNC lathe body. A support plate and a liquid collection tank are arranged on the right side of the CNC lathe body. A chip collection box is arranged inside the liquid collection tank. The lower end of the chip collection box is a first filter plate, and the rear side plate is a second filter plate. A lifting mechanism for lifting the chip collection box is provided on the support plate. The chips are discharged into the chip collection box in the collection tank through the chip removal channel. The lower end of the chip collection box is a first filter plate, and the side plate is a second filter plate, separating the cutting fluid into the liquid collection tank, thus achieving chip separation. At the same time, the chip collection box can be lifted by the lifting mechanism to separate the chips in the chip collection box from the cutting fluid in the liquid collection tank, facilitating the cleaning and recycling of chips and improving the efficiency and effect of chip cleaning.

[0004] The device can separate chips from cutting fluid by setting up a chip collection box. However, during the operation of the lathe, some spiral chips are generated, which are easy to get stuck in the holes in the chip collection box during collection. They are difficult to remove and require manual cleaning, which is time-consuming and laborious. Moreover, they accumulate more and more, which will affect the separation efficiency of chips and cutting fluid.

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application proposes a chip removal and cleaning device for a CNC lathe for mold manufacturing. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a chip removal and cleaning device for CNC lathes used in mold manufacturing.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A chip removal and cleaning device for a CNC lathe for mold manufacturing includes: a lathe body, a chip removal groove provided on the right side wall of the lathe body, and a collection groove provided on the right side of the lathe body;

[0009] A cleaning structure is installed on the right side wall of the lathe body. The cleaning structure includes a guide frame, which is fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the chip removal groove opening. A rotating shaft is movably installed on the inner side of the guide frame via a bearing. A magnetic sleeve is fixedly fitted on the outer side of the rotating shaft. A motor is fixedly installed on the front of the guide frame. An inclined groove is fixedly connected to the right side of the right side of the inclined groove. A mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the right end of the top surface of the inclined groove. A guide rod is fixedly installed on the inner side of the mounting bracket. A temporary storage rod is fixedly connected to the rear wall of the mounting bracket. A pull block is installed on the temporary storage rod. A slot is opened on the bottom surface of the pull block. A brush is provided on the bottom surface of the pull block. A collection box is placed on the front side of the inclined groove.

[0010] Preferably, the chip removal groove communicates with the interior of the guide frame, and the inner wall is flush with the inner wall.

[0011] Preferably, there is a gap between the magnet sleeve and the inner wall of the guide frame, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft through a coupling.

[0012] Preferably, the inclined groove is installed with a higher rear and lower front, and the shape of the inclined groove is adapted to the shape of the magnet sleeve.

[0013] Preferably, the front end of the guide rod is located on the front side of the inclined groove.

[0014] Preferably, the pull block is engaged with the outside of the temporary storage rod via a slot.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This utility model is equipped with a magnetic sleeve. When the lathe body is running, the cutting fluid mixed with debris will flow into the interior of the guide frame along the chip removal groove. When the motor is started, the rotating shaft will rotate. When the rotating shaft rotates, it will drive the outer magnetic sleeve to rotate. The magnetic sleeve is located on the upper side of the guide frame. When the cutting fluid mixed with debris flows out from the right end of the guide frame, it needs to pass under the magnetic sleeve. When the debris approaches the magnetic sleeve, the magnetic sleeve attracts the debris, causing the debris to separate from the cutting fluid. The cutting fluid is collected in the collection tank and flows out uniformly through the collection tank. The debris will be adsorbed on the surface of the magnetic sleeve. When the magnetic sleeve rotates clockwise, it will drive the debris to approach the inclined groove in a clockwise direction. The inclined groove is close to the surface of the magnetic sleeve. Therefore, when the magnetic sleeve rotates, the inclined groove can scrape the debris on the surface of the magnetic sleeve, so that the debris is blocked on the inner side of the inclined groove and flows forward along the inclined groove into the collection box, realizing the uniform collection of debris.

[0017] 2. This utility model is equipped with a brush. By removing the pull block from the temporary storage rod and inserting the pull block into the rear end of the guide rod through the slot, the pull block can be slidably installed on the outside of the guide rod. At this time, the bottom end of the brush will contact the inside of the inclined groove. Pulling the guide rod forward can drive the brush to brush the debris in the inclined groove, so that the debris can flow out of the inclined groove quickly, ensuring the cleaning efficiency of the inclined groove.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a chip removal and cleaning device for a CNC lathe used in mold manufacturing:

[0025] The lathe body 1, chip removal groove 11, collection groove 12 and motor 24 used in this application are products that can be purchased directly on the market. Their principles and connection methods are existing technologies well known to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0026] A chip removal and cleaning device for a CNC lathe for mold manufacturing includes: a lathe body 1, a chip removal groove 11 provided on the right side wall of the lathe body 1, and a collection groove 12 provided on the right side of the lathe body 1.

[0027] A cleaning structure 2 is installed on the right side wall of the lathe body 1. The cleaning structure 2 includes a guide frame 21, which is fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the opening of the chip removal groove 11. A rotating shaft 22 is movably installed on the inner side of the guide frame 21 via a bearing. A magnet sleeve 23 is fixedly fitted on the outer side of the rotating shaft 22. A motor 24 is fixedly installed on the front of the guide frame 21. A slanted groove 25 is fixedly connected to the right side wall of the guide frame 21. A mounting bracket 26 is fixedly connected to the right end of the top surface of the slanted groove 25. A guide rod 27 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the mounting bracket 26. A guide rod 27 is fixedly installed on the rear wall of the mounting bracket 26. A temporary storage rod 28 is fixedly connected, and a pull block 29 is installed on the temporary storage rod 28. A slot 210 is opened on the bottom surface of the pull block 29, and a brush 211 is provided on the bottom surface of the pull block 29. A collection box 212 is placed on the front side of the inclined groove 25. When the lathe body 1 is running, the cutting fluid mixed with chips will flow along the chip discharge groove 11 into the interior of the guide frame 21. The motor 24 is started, which drives the rotating shaft 22 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 22 rotates, it will drive the outer magnet sleeve 23 to rotate. The magnet sleeve 23 is located on the upper side of the guide frame 21. The cutting fluid mixed with chips flows from the right side of the guide frame 21. When the fluid flows out, it needs to pass under the magnet sleeve 23. When the debris approaches the magnet sleeve 23, the magnet sleeve 23 attracts the debris, causing the debris to separate from the cutting fluid. The cutting fluid is then collected in the collection tank 12 and flows out uniformly through the collection tank 12. The debris will be adsorbed on the surface of the magnet sleeve 23. When the magnet sleeve 23 rotates clockwise, it will drive the debris to approach the inclined groove 25 in a clockwise direction. The inclined groove 25 is close to the surface of the magnet sleeve 23. Therefore, when the magnet sleeve 23 rotates, the inclined groove 25 can scrape the debris on the surface of the magnet sleeve 23, so that the debris is blocked by the inclined groove 25. The debris flows forward along the inclined groove 25 into the collection box 212, achieving unified collection of debris. By removing the pull block 29 from the temporary storage rod 28 and inserting the pull block 29 into the rear end of the guide rod 27 through the slot 210, the pull block 29 can be slidably installed on the outside of the guide rod 27. At this time, the bottom end of the brush 211 will contact the inside of the inclined groove 25. Pulling the guide rod 27 forward can drive the brush 211 to brush the debris in the inclined groove 25, so that the debris can quickly flow out of the inclined groove 25, ensuring the cleaning efficiency of the inclined groove 25.

[0028] Furthermore, the chip removal groove 11 is connected to the interior of the guide frame 21 and the inner wall is flush, so that the cutting fluid mixed with chips in the chip removal groove 11 can flow into the guide frame 21.

[0029] Furthermore, there is a gap between the magnet sleeve 23 and the inner wall of the guide frame 21. The output end of the motor 24 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 22 through a coupling. The gap between the magnet sleeve 23 and the guide frame 21 provides space for the cutting fluid to flow into the collection tank 12, and allows debris to approach the magnet sleeve 23 so that the debris can be adsorbed by the magnet sleeve 23. The rotation of the motor 24 can drive the rotating shaft 22 to rotate.

[0030] Furthermore, the inclined groove 25 is installed with a higher rear and lower front. The shape of the inclined groove 25 is adapted to the magnet sleeve 23. The inclined groove 25 can scrape off the debris adsorbed on the magnet sleeve 23, and the debris can flow forward on the inclined groove 25.

[0031] Furthermore, the front end of the guide rod 27 is located on the front side of the inclined groove 25, and the pull block 29 can move on the guide rod 27 to the front side of the inclined groove 25 to ensure the cleaning effect of the inclined groove 25.

[0032] Furthermore, the pull block 29 is secured to the outside of the temporary storage rod 28 via the slot 210. The temporary storage rod 28 provides a placement position for the pull block 29, preventing displacement and loss.

[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model in any way. Those skilled in the art can readily implement this utility model based on the accompanying drawings and the above description. However, any modifications, alterations, or equivalent variations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the utility model's technical solution, utilizing the disclosed technical content, are considered equivalent embodiments of this utility model. Furthermore, any equivalent changes, alterations, or variations made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model's technical solution.
