Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CNC machine tool technology, and in particular to a vertical machining center with multiple protective mechanisms. Background Technology

[0002] A vertical machining center is a machining center in which the spindle axis is set perpendicular to the worktable. It is mainly suitable for machining complex parts such as plates, discs, molds, and small shells. It has at least three axes with two-linkage, and generally can achieve three axes with three-linkage. Some can even perform five-axis or six-axis control.

[0003] Most existing machining centers use double doors for shielding and protection. However, most existing double doors do not have a synchronous structure. If the operator neglects to close one door completely, it can cause byproducts such as flying iron filings and cutting fluid during the machining process to pollute the environment. The uneven stress on a single door over a long period of time may damage the hinges and guide rails. These issues need to be addressed. Utility Model Content

The base 2 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the body 1, the machine tool 3 is installed inside the body 1, and the protective device 4 is installed on the body 1.

[0023] The specific setup and function of its protective device 4 and cleaning device 5 will be explained below.

[0024] In this embodiment: the protective device 4 includes a door 41 and a slide 43. The slide 43 is opened on the body 1. There are two sets of slides. The door 41 is set inside the slide. Rollers 44 are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the door 41. The rollers 44 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide 43. The door 41 includes a door panel 411 and a door panel 412. Observation windows 42 are installed on the door panel 411 and the door panel 412. A synchronization component 45 is set inside the body 1.

[0025] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows:

[0026] Specifically, the synchronization component 45 includes a fixed shaft 451, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the body 1, and a spur gear 452 is rotatably connected to the surface of the body 1.

[0027] The above components achieve the following effects: a door 41 is provided to prevent byproducts such as metal shavings and cutting fluid from flying out of the processing area during the processing; and an observation window 42 is provided to facilitate constant observation of the workpiece processing status.

[0028] Specifically, the surface of the spur gear 452 is meshed with rack one 453 and rack two 454. Rack one 453 and rack two 454 are symmetrically arranged. A connecting rod 455 is fixedly connected to rack one 453. The connecting rod 455 is fixedly connected to door panel one 411. Rack two 454 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting rod 455.

[0029] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: the connecting rod 455 is used to fix the rack 453 to the door panel 411 and to support the rack 454.

[0030] Specifically, a fixing block 51 is fixedly connected to the rack 2 454, the fixing block 51 is fixedly connected to the door panel 2 412, a limiting rod 458 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the body 1, and a sliding groove 2 457 is opened on the rack 1 453, the limiting rod 458 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 2 457.

[0031] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: the limiting rod 458 is set to support the rack 453, so that the rack 453 and the spur gear 452 are always meshed.

[0032] Specifically, a cleaning device 5 is provided on the door 41. The cleaning device 5 includes a fixing block 51, which is fixedly connected to the door 41. There are multiple sets of fixing blocks 51. A lead screw 52 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixing block 51, and a guide rod 53 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing block 51.

[0033] The above components achieve the following effects: the lead screw 52 facilitates the sliding of the scraper 54, and the guide rod 53 facilitates the stability of the scraper 54.

[0034] Specifically, a scraper 54 is threadedly connected to the surface of the lead screw 52. The scraper 54 is close to the side of the observation window 42 near the machine tool 3. The scraper 54 is slidably connected to the guide rod 53. A bevel gear 1 55 is fixedly connected to the surface of the lead screw 52. A bevel gear 2 56 meshes with the surface of the bevel gear 1 55.

[0035] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: the scraper 54 is provided, and the scraper 54 works in conjunction with the lead screw 52. When the scraper 54 slides, it can clean the observation window 42.

[0036] Specifically, a transmission rod 57 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second bevel gear 56. The transmission rod 57 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the main body 1. A handwheel 58 is fixedly connected to the end of the transmission rod 57 away from the second bevel gear 56.

[0037] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: by setting bevel gear 55 and bevel gear 56, the transmission direction is changed, so that the transmission rod 57 rotates the lead screw 52.

[0038] Working principle: By setting up protective device 4, byproducts such as iron filings and cutting fluid splashed during processing are prevented from flying out of the processing area. During processing, pulling door plate 1 411 causes door plate 1 411 to slide on the limiting rod 458 via connecting rod 455, which in turn drives rack 1 453 to rotate. The gear drives rack 2 454 to slide to the other side. Rack 2 454, via connecting block 456, causes door plate 2 412 to slide in the opposite direction to door plate 1 411. By setting up protective device 4, byproducts such as iron filings and cutting fluid splashed during processing are prevented from flying out of the processing area. When opening and closing the box door 41, only one hand is needed to operate the door, ensuring airtightness. An additional interlocking device can be added so that the equipment cannot be started when the box door 41 is not closed, which effectively improves the convenience of the equipment.

[0039] By setting up the cleaning device 5, it is easy to clean the observation window 42 on the door panel. During processing, the handwheel 58 is turned, which drives the transmission rod 57 to rotate. The transmission rod 57 drives the first bevel gear 55 to rotate, and the first bevel gear 55 drives the second bevel gear 56 to rotate the lead screw 52. The lead screw 52 drives the scraper 54 to slide, and the scraper 54 slides to clean the side of the observation window 42 closest to the machine tool 3. By setting up the cleaning device 5, the observation window 42 can be cleaned even when working in the machining center, so that the operator can observe the processing status of the workpiece at all times, which effectively improves the convenience of the equipment.
