Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CNC machining equipment technology, and in particular to a chip conveying device suitable for CNC threading machine tools. Background Technology

[0002] During the machining process of CNC thread-making machines, a large number of chips of various shapes are generated, including fine chips, long ribbon-like chips, and large clumps of chips. To ensure the efficient and stable operation of the machine tool and improve machining accuracy and production efficiency, a high-performance chip conveying device is crucial. Chain-plate chip conveyors are commonly used chip removal equipment, and their design and functions are constantly being innovated to adapt to complex machining environments and diverse chip removal needs.

[0003] In the prior art, such as the patent application CN222680343U entitled "A Chain Plate Chip Conveyor for CNC Machine Tools," a chain plate chip conveyor body is included. A U-shaped plate is fixedly installed on the top of the chain plate chip conveyor body. A mounting plate is installed on one side of the U-shaped plate via a moving mechanism. A connecting plate is installed at the bottom of the mounting plate via a lifting mechanism. A brush head is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate. A water tank is fixedly installed on the top of the U-shaped plate. An electric push rod drives the brush head to descend, causing it to contact the surface of the chain plate body. A motor drives the brush head to reciprocate, thus scraping the surface of the chain plate body and brushing out debris stuck in the inner walls of the holes. A water pump is activated, drawing water from the water tank through a suction pipe and outputting it through an output pipe. The water is then sprayed onto the surface of the chain plate body, making it easier for the brush head to scrape the chain plate body and simultaneously cleaning it.

[0004] Most existing chain plate chip conveying devices have a fixed collection trough structure. When the collection trough is full of chips, the operator needs to manually disassemble the collection trough and then dump the chips out. However, the process of disassembling the collection trough is cumbersome and requires a lot of manpower and time. In addition, frequent disassembly can easily cause the connection between the collection trough and other parts of the chip conveying device to loosen, affecting the stability and service life of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that in existing chain-plate chip conveying devices, the collection troughs are mostly fixed structures. When the collection trough is full of chips, the operator needs to manually disassemble the trough and then pour it out to discharge the chips. However, the process of disassembling the collection trough is cumbersome, requires a lot of manpower and time, and frequent disassembly can easily cause the connection between the collection trough and other components of the chip conveying device to loosen, affecting the stability and service life of the equipment. Therefore, this invention proposes a chip conveying device suitable for CNC threading machine tools.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a chip conveying device suitable for CNC threading machine tools, comprising a chip conveying assembly, wherein a feeding assembly and a cleaning assembly are provided on the chip conveying assembly, the chip conveying assembly includes a chip support frame, a chain plate is provided inside the chip support frame, the feeding assembly includes a connecting frame, the connecting frame is provided on the chip support frame, rotating shafts are symmetrically mounted on the side of the connecting frame, a collection groove is installed at one end of the rotating shaft, and a rotating motor is mounted on the side of the connecting frame.

[0007] Preferably, the cleaning component includes an air filling structure, the top of which is connected to a delivery pipe, and one end of which is connected to an air jet holder.

[0008] Preferably, the jet frame has multiple high-pressure nozzles distributed on it, and the gas filling structure is mounted on the chip removal support frame.

[0009] Preferably, a hinge is installed at one end of the chip removal support frame, and a sealing plate is connected to the outside of the hinge.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting plate is installed at the bottom of the sealing plate, and a fixing frame is symmetrically installed at one end of the chip removal support frame.

[0011] Preferably, a limiting plate is movably installed inside the fixing frame, and the limiting plate is connected to the connecting plate.

[0012] Preferably, a servo motor is installed on one side of the chip removal support frame, and a chip discharge port is installed at the bottom of one end of the chip removal support frame.

[0013] Preferably, the collecting trough is located below the debris discharge port.

[0014] Preferably, a support frame is installed at the bottom of the chip removal support frame, and a brake wheel is installed at the bottom of the support frame.

[0015] Preferably, one end of the chip removal support frame is provided with a maintenance slot, and the sealing plate is disposed on the maintenance slot.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] 1. In this utility model, one rotating shaft is electrically driven by a rotating motor, which works in conjunction with the other rotating shaft to rotate. This facilitates the flipping of the collection trough, which helps to discharge debris. There is no need for cumbersome disassembly steps using tools, reducing labor and time costs, shortening the single chip removal time, reducing machine tool downtime, and effectively improving the processing continuity and production efficiency of CNC threading machines. At the same time, the absence of frequent disassembly reduces friction and wear between mechanical parts, thereby extending the service life of the equipment.

[0018] 2. In this utility model, high-pressure gas is generated through the gas filling structure, which is transported to the inside of the jet frame through the conveying pipe and finally sprayed out through the high-pressure nozzle. This is beneficial for cleaning the chain plate, so that the waste stuck between the chain plates falls off under the combined action of its own gravity and wind blowing, reducing the jamming of waste and ensuring the stable operation of the chain plate.

[0025] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0026] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0027] Example 1: As Figures 1-5As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a chip conveying device suitable for CNC threading machine tools, including a chip conveying assembly 1, a feeding assembly 2 and a cleaning assembly 3. The chip conveying assembly 1 includes a chip support frame 101, and a chain plate 102 is provided inside the chip support frame 101. The feeding assembly 2 includes a connecting frame 201, which is mounted on the chip support frame 101. Rotating shafts 202 are symmetrically mounted on the side of the connecting frame 201. A collection groove 203 is mounted at one end of the rotating shaft 202. A rotating motor 204 is mounted on the side of the connecting frame 201. A servo motor 106 is mounted on one side of the chip support frame 101. A chip discharge port 105 is mounted at the bottom of one end of the chip support frame 101. The collection groove 203 is located below the chip discharge port 105. A support frame 103 is mounted at the bottom of the chip support frame 101, and a brake wheel 104 is mounted at the bottom of the support frame 103.

[0028] In this embodiment, the chain plate 102 is electrically driven by the servo motor 106 to rotate, which facilitates stable conveying of chips. The chip discharge port 105 facilitates chip discharge. The collection trough 203 is located below the chip discharge port 105, which is conducive to chip collection. The rotating motor 204 electrically drives one of the rotating shafts 202, which, in conjunction with the other rotating shaft 202, rotates, which helps to rotate the collection trough 203, thus facilitating chip discharge. This eliminates the need for cumbersome disassembly steps using tools, reducing labor and time costs, shortening the chip removal time per cycle, and reducing machine tool downtime. This effectively improves the processing continuity and production efficiency of the CNC threading machine. At the same time, the absence of frequent disassembly reduces friction and wear between mechanical parts, thereby extending the service life of the equipment. The brake wheel 104 facilitates the movement of the chip conveying assembly 1, improving its flexibility.

[0029] Example 2: As Figures 1-5 As shown, the cleaning component 3 includes an air filling structure 301. A delivery pipe 302 is connected to the top of the air filling structure 301. One end of the delivery pipe 302 is connected to an air jet frame 303. Multiple high-pressure nozzles 304 are distributed on the air jet frame 303. The air filling structure 301 is mounted on a chip removal support frame 101. A hinge 306 is installed at one end of the chip removal support frame 101. A sealing plate 305 is connected to the outside of the hinge 306. A connecting plate 307 is installed at the bottom of the sealing plate 305. A fixing frame 308 is symmetrically mounted at one end of the chip removal support frame 101. A limiting plate 309 is movably installed inside the fixing frame 308. The limiting plate 309 is connected to the connecting plate 307. A maintenance slot is opened at one end of the chip removal support frame 101. The sealing plate 305 is mounted on the maintenance slot.

[0030] In this embodiment, the hinge 306 facilitates the flipping of the sealing plate 305, making it easier to open the maintenance slot and clean up the debris accumulated at the rotating end of the chain plate 102. The movable limiting plate 309 moves inside the fixed frame 308, causing the limiting plate 309 to connect with the connecting plate 307, which helps to provide a limiting function. The gas filling structure 301 generates high-pressure gas, which is transported to the inside of the jet frame 303 through the conveying pipe 302 and finally sprayed out through the high-pressure nozzle 304, which helps to clean the chain plate 102. The debris stuck between the chain plates falls off under the combined action of its own gravity and wind, reducing the jamming of debris and ensuring the stable operation of the chain plate 102.

[0031] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: In use, the chain plate 102 is first driven to rotate by the servo motor 106. The chain plate 102 facilitates stable conveying of debris. The debris discharge port 105 facilitates the discharge of debris. The collection trough 203 is located below the debris discharge port 105, which facilitates the collection of debris. The rotating motor 204 drives one of the rotating shafts 202 to rotate in conjunction with the other rotating shaft 202, which helps to rotate the collection trough 203, thus facilitating the discharge of debris. No cumbersome disassembly steps using tools are required, reducing labor and time costs. The hinge 30... 6. This design facilitates the flipping of the sealing plate 305, making it easier to open the maintenance slot and clean up the debris accumulated at the rotating end of the chain plate 102. The movable limiting plate 309 moves inside the fixed frame 308, causing the limiting plate 309 to connect with the connecting plate 307, which helps to provide a limiting function. The gas filling structure 301 generates high-pressure gas, which is transported to the inside of the jet frame 303 through the conveying pipe 302 and finally sprayed out through the high-pressure nozzle 304, which helps to clean the chain plate 102. The debris stuck between the chain plates falls off under the combined action of its own gravity and wind, reducing the situation of debris jamming.

[0032] The chain plate 103, servo motor 106, rotary motor 204 and air filling structure 301 in this utility model are common knowledge in the field. Their working principle is a well-known technology. The appropriate model is selected according to actual use. Therefore, the chain plate 103, servo motor 106, rotary motor 204 and air filling structure 301 will not be explained in detail.
