[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0026] Example 1
[0027] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model is a folding CNC machine tool guide rail protective cover, including a machine tool frame 1, with support seats 2 fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the machine tool frame 1; the support seats 2 are used to support the entire machine tool frame 1 and the protective cover; an anti-blocking component is provided on the top of the machine tool frame 1, the anti-blocking component includes guide rail grooves 3 fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the machine tool frame 1, the function of the guide rail grooves 3 is to facilitate the opening and closing of the folding cover 7 at the top of the machine tool frame 1, and sealing strips 4 fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the guide rail grooves 3, the two sealing strips 4 are fitted together, and in the area where they are fitted with the connecting block 9, they can also block most of the waste chips and waste liquids, so as to prevent them from falling into the guide rail grooves 3 and affecting the rolling of the roller 8. The support base 2 has a collection groove 5 inside, which is used to collect some small impurities that fall into the guide rail groove 3. One side of the collection groove 5 is an opening to facilitate the discharge of the collected impurities. An anti-blocking component is used to prevent waste chips and waste liquid from accumulating inside the guide rail groove 3. The guide rail groove 3 is equipped with an opening and closing component, which includes a support frame 6 slidably connected to the top of the guide rail groove 3. The bottom of the support frame 6 is slidably connected to the top of the guide rail groove 3 to facilitate the opening and closing of the folding cover 7. The folding cover 7 is set on one side of the support frame 6, and a roller 8 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the guide rail groove 3. The opening and closing component is used to open and close the folding cover 7 on the top of the machine tool frame 1.
[0028] Example 2
[0029] Please see Figures 1-5Based on embodiment 1, a connecting block 9 is movably connected to the surface of the roller 8. The top of the connecting block 9 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the support frame 6. An extension strip 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting block 9, and a scraper 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the extension strip 10. The surface of the scraper 11 fits against the inner cavity of the collection tank 5 to facilitate the discharge of small impurities in the collection tank 5 when the folding cover 7 is closed, thus preventing the waste liquid from accumulating for a long time and causing corrosion inside the guide rail groove 3. The surface of the scraper 11 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the collection tank 5. A trough 12 is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the guide rail groove 3, allowing small debris and waste liquid to fall into the collection tank 5 without affecting the roller 8 in the track 13. The inner cavity of the trough 12 communicates with the inner cavity of the collection tank 5. Tracks 13 are provided on both sides of the inner cavity of the guide rail groove 3, and the surface of the roller 8 is connected to the inner cavity of the track 13. The sliding connection and folding cover 7 consist of baffle plates and hinges. The folding cover 7 is composed of multiple baffle plates and multiple hinges to ensure that the folding cover 7 can be opened and closed easily to the required position. One side of the baffle plate is movably connected to the hinge surface. A sealing baffle 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the machine tool frame 1. The sealing baffle 14 can support the folding plate and seal one side of the top of the machine tool frame 1 to prevent the internal structure of the machine tool frame 1 from being affected after the folding cover 7 is closed. One side of the sealing baffle 14 is movably connected to one side of the folding cover 7 through a hinge. The folding cover 7 is composed of multiple baffle plates and hinges, and the opening and closing length can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs. When protection is required, the folding cover 7 is fully unfolded to cover the guide rail area. When operation or maintenance is required, the folding cover 7 can be partially or completely folded to facilitate the operator's access to the inside of the machine tool.
[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the CNC machine tool is working, the folding cover 7 is fully unfolded, and the roller 8 slides in the track 13 inside the guide rail groove 3. The support frame 6 is slidably connected to the top of the guide rail groove 3 through the roller 8, so that the folding cover 7 covers the guide rail area. The sealing strips 4 set on both sides of the top inside the guide rail groove 3 can effectively block most of the waste chips and waste liquid from entering the guide rail groove 3. When the folding cover 7 is closed, the sealing strips 4 and the connecting block 9 fit tightly, further enhancing the sealing effect and preventing impurities from penetrating. At the same time, the trough 12 and The design of the collection tank 5 ensures that a small amount of seeping waste chips and waste liquid can be discharged and collected in a timely manner. When the machine tool needs to be operated or maintained, the folding cover 7 can be flexibly folded to the required position through the sliding connection of the roller 8 and the support frame 6. During the opening and closing process, the scraper 11 automatically cleans the waste chips and waste liquid in the collection tank 5 to ensure the cleanliness and unobstructed flow of the guide rail groove 3. During the opening and closing process of the folding cover 7, the scraper 11 at the bottom of the connecting block 9 moves with the folding cover 7 to automatically clean the waste chips and waste liquid in the collection tank 5, avoiding the accumulation of impurities that may affect the normal operation of the protective cover.
