Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tool cleaning auxiliary technology, and in particular relates to a tool cleaning auxiliary structure for a woodworking slicer. Background Technology

[0002] After prolonged use, the blades of woodworking slicers wear down and need to be disassembled for cleaning and sharpening. Currently, the cleaning and sharpening method involves workers clamping the blades with a jig and then cleaning and sharpening the cutting edge. Since the blades have cutting edges on both sides, after cleaning and sharpening one side, the worker needs to remove the blade, flip it over, and then clamp it again to clean and sharpen the other side. Because industrial woodworking slicer blades are heavy and have very sharp edges, there are safety hazards during the blade flipping process. In addition, the blades need to be clamped twice to complete the cleaning and sharpening, which is inefficient. Therefore, the existing blade cleaning method for woodworking slicers needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the aforementioned technical problems by providing an auxiliary structure for cleaning the blades of a woodworking slicing machine. Through the cooperation of a flipping seat, a driving component, and a locking mechanism, the automatic flipping of the blades for double-sided cleaning is achieved, avoiding the risks of manual operation and improving efficiency.

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides an auxiliary structure for cleaning the blades of a woodworking slicer, comprising:

[0005] A fixed platform, on which a spindle is rotatably connected;

[0006] The tilting seat has one end connected to the spindle. When the spindle rotates, it can drive the tilting seat to tilt. The tilting seat can be used to clamp cutting tools.

[0007] Two sets of support blocks are set on the fixed platform. The two sets of support blocks are located on both sides of the main shaft. When the tilting seat is tilted to be parallel with the fixed platform, the corresponding set of support blocks can support the tilting seat.

[0008] The driving component, which drives the spindle to rotate;

[0009] The locking mechanism can restrict the rotation of the spindle when the tilting seat is tilted to be parallel with the fixed table.

[0010] In this technical solution, the flipping seat is parallel to the fixed table in its initial position. A set of support blocks supports the flipping seat, and the locking mechanism restricts the rotation of the spindle. After the worker removes the blade from the woodworking slicer, the blade is clamped onto the flipping seat. At this time, the worker can clean and grind one side of the blade. After cleaning, the locking mechanism releases the restriction on the spindle, and the drive component drives the flipping seat to rotate 180 degrees, so that the blade flips over and the flipping seat is parallel to the fixed table again. At this time, another set of support blocks supports the flipping seat, and the locking mechanism restricts the rotation of the spindle again. The worker cleans and grinds the other side of the blade. After cleaning, the worker removes the blade from the flipping seat and installs it back onto the woodworking slicer.

[0011] In the above technical solution, furthermore, the flipping seat is provided with a plurality of threaded holes spaced apart along the length direction of the blade, and the blade is provided with a plurality of mounting holes spaced apart along the length direction. One threaded hole and one mounting hole are positioned opposite each other, and the threaded fastener cooperates with the mounting hole and the threaded hole to fix the blade on the flipping seat.

[0012] In the above technical solution, a positioning block is further provided on the flipping seat, and the side surface of the blade away from the cutting edge abuts against the positioning block.

[0013] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the driving component is a manually driven structure.

[0014] In the above technical solution, the driving component is further described as an electronically controlled driving structure.

[0015] In the above technical solution, the locking mechanism further includes:

[0016] The locking disc is located at one end of the spindle and is coaxial with the spindle. A locking groove is provided in the middle of the end of the locking disc away from the spindle.

[0017] The fixed seat is set on the fixed platform. A movable groove is provided on the side wall of the fixed seat near the locking plate. A locking block is slidably connected in the movable groove along the axial direction of the main shaft. The locking block cannot rotate relative to the movable groove. One end of the locking block can be inserted into the locking groove. At this time, the locking plate cannot rotate relative to the locking block.

[0018] The translational drive mechanism can drive the locking block to reciprocate along the axial direction of the main shaft.

[0019] In the above technical solution, the longitudinal sections of both the movable groove and the locking groove are regular quadrilaterals, and the outline of the locking block is adapted to the movable groove and the locking groove.

[0020] In the above technical solution, the translational drive mechanism further includes:

[0021] A connecting through hole is provided on the side wall of the fixed base. The connecting through hole is axially connected to the movable groove. The side wall of the connecting through hole is provided with threads.

[0022] The drive screw has one end rotatably connected to the locking block, and the drive screw is threadedly connected to the connecting through hole.

[0023] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0024] 1. Through the cooperation of the fixed table, spindle, tilting seat, two sets of support blocks, drive components and locking mechanism, and the rigid connection between the tilting seat and the spindle, the tilting process of the blade is completed by mechanical drive. Workers do not need to manually tilt the heavy blade, which completely avoids the risk of scratches or injuries caused by the heavy weight and sharp edge of the blade.

[0025] 2. By setting up two sets of support blocks, the flipping seat can be stably supported by a set of support blocks in the initial position and after flipping 180 degrees, which improves the stability of the blade's two sides during cleaning and grinding.

[0026] 3. By setting the locking mechanism as a combination of locking disc, locking groove, fixed seat, movable groove, locking groove and translational drive mechanism, it can be ensured that the flipping seat can remain stable when stationary and will not have angular deviation, which further improves the stability of the blade during cleaning and grinding.

[0027] 4. The flip-up seat can be driven manually or electrically, offering flexibility to adapt to different scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0040] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0041] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. For ease of description, the dimensions of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn to actual scale. Techniques, methods, and devices known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and devices should be considered part of the specification. In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following drawings denote similar items, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it need not be further discussed in subsequent drawings.

[0042] The blade D in this invention is provided with multiple mounting holes, which penetrate through the two opposite surfaces of the blade D. The blade D is mounted on the woodworking slicer through the mounting holes. The blade D in the attached drawings is only an example. The inclination angle between the two cutting edges of the blade D can be designed according to actual needs.

[0043] Example 1

[0044] This embodiment provides a blade cleaning auxiliary structure for a woodworking slicer, including: a fixed table 1, a main shaft 2, a flipping seat 3, two sets of support blocks 4, a driving component 5, and a locking mechanism 6;

[0045] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fixed platform 1 serves as the load-bearing component of the overall structure. The fixed platform 1 can be made of welded steel plate to ensure the stability of the load-bearing structure. Two support frames are spaced apart on the fixed platform 1, and the two ends of the main shaft 2 are rotatably connected to the two support frames through bearings.

[0046] One end of the flip seat 3 is connected to the spindle 2. The flip seat 3 can be keyed to the spindle 2 or welded to the spindle 2. When the spindle 2 rotates, it can drive the flip seat 3 to flip. The flip seat 3 can clamp the blade D. Specifically, the flip seat 3 is provided with multiple threaded holes 7 at intervals along the length direction of the blade D. One threaded hole 7 is opposite to one mounting hole. It should be noted that the number of threaded holes 7 is not required to be the same as the number of mounting holes. In this embodiment, the threaded fastener L cooperates with the mounting hole and the threaded hole 7 to fix the blade D on the flip seat 3. The threaded fastener L can be a commercially available screw product. When the blade D is installed on the flip seat 3, the threaded end of the threaded fastener L passes through the mounting hole and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 7 to fix the blade D on the flip seat 3.

[0047] In this embodiment, the flip base 3 is provided with a positioning block 8. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 3-6 In any of the attached figures, the side surface of the blade D away from the cutting edge abuts against the positioning block 8, which reduces the difficulty of installing the blade D onto the flipping seat 3.

[0048] Please see Figure 3 Both sets of support blocks 4 are set on the fixed platform 1. The two sets of support blocks 4 are located on both sides of the main shaft 2. When the flipping seat 3 flips to be parallel to the fixed platform 1, the corresponding set of support blocks 4 can support the flipping seat 3.

[0049] The drive unit 5 can drive the spindle 2 to rotate. In this embodiment, the drive unit 5 can adopt a manual drive structure, such as setting a handwheel at one end of the spindle 2, and the worker can rotate the handwheel to drive the spindle 2 to rotate. In addition, the drive unit 5 can also adopt an electronically controlled drive structure, such as using a servo motor and a coupling to connect the spindle 2, and controlling the flipping seat 3 to flip through the circuit.

[0050] The locking mechanism 6 can restrict the rotation of the spindle 2 when the flipping seat 3 is flipped to be parallel with the fixed table 1, thereby improving the stability of the blade D during cleaning and grinding. When the flipping seat 3 needs to be flipped, the locking mechanism 6 can release the restriction on the spindle 2.

[0051] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 When the tilting seat 3 is in its initial position, it is parallel to the fixed table 1. A set of support blocks 4 supports the tilting seat 3, and the locking mechanism 6 restricts the rotation of the spindle 2. After the worker removes the blade D from the woodworking slicer, the blade D is clamped onto the tilting seat 3. At this time, the worker can clean and sharpen one side of the blade D. After cleaning, the locking mechanism 6 releases the restriction on the spindle 2. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5 At this time, the driving component 5 can drive the flipping seat 3 to flip, and the driving component 5 drives the flipping seat 3 to flip 180 degrees, so that after the blade D is flipped, the flipping seat 3 is parallel to the fixed table 1 again. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 6 At this time, another set of support blocks 4 supports the flipping seat 3, and the locking mechanism 6 restricts the rotation of the spindle 2 again. The worker cleans and grinds the blade on the other side of the blade D. After cleaning, the worker removes the blade D from the flipping seat 3 and installs it back onto the woodworking slicer.

[0052] Example 2

[0053] Based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment also discloses a structure of the locking mechanism 6;

[0054] In this embodiment, the locking mechanism 6 includes: a locking disc 9, a fixed base 10, and a translational drive mechanism;

[0055] Please see Figure 2 The locking disc 9 is located at one end of the spindle 2, and the locking disc 9 is coaxially distributed with the spindle 2. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 7 A locking groove 901 is provided in the middle of the end of the locking disc 9 away from the main shaft 2;

[0056] The mounting base 10 is detachably mounted on the mounting platform 1. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 9 A movable groove 1001 is provided on the side wall of the fixed seat 10 near the locking disc 9. A locking block 11 is slidably connected in the movable groove 1001 along the axial direction of the main shaft 2. The locking block 11 cannot rotate relative to the movable groove 1001. One end of the locking block 11 can be inserted into the locking groove 901. At this time, the locking disc 9 cannot rotate relative to the locking block 11, and the other end of the locking block 11 is still located in the movable groove 1001. That is, at this time, the fixed seat 10, the movable groove 1001, the locking block 11, and the locking groove 901 cooperate to restrict the rotation of the locking disc 9, thereby restricting the rotation of the main shaft 2.

[0057] In this embodiment, the longitudinal cross-sections of the movable groove 1001 and the locking groove 901 are both regular quadrilaterals. The outline of the locking block 11 is adapted to the movable groove 1001 and the locking groove 901. In addition, the longitudinal cross-sections of the movable groove 1001 and the locking groove 901 can also be regular hexagons or rectangles, as long as the shape of the locking groove 901 can still coincide with the initial state after rotating 180 degrees.

[0058] The translational drive mechanism can drive the locking block 11 to reciprocate along the axis of the main shaft 2. The translational drive mechanism can be driven manually or electrically. Any existing structure that can drive an object to reciprocate along a straight line can be used as the translational drive mechanism in this embodiment.

[0059] In this embodiment, when the flipping seat 3 needs to be flipped, the translational drive mechanism drives the locking block 11 to exit the locking groove 901. At this time, the rotation of the locking disc 9 is not restricted, and the main shaft 2 can rotate under the drive of the drive component 5. When the flipping seat 3 does not need to be flipped, the translational drive mechanism drives the locking block 11 to enter the locking groove 901. At this time, the rotation of the locking disc 9 is restricted, and the rotation of the main shaft 2 is also restricted.

[0060] Example 3

[0061] Based on Embodiment 2, this embodiment also discloses a structure of a translational drive mechanism;

[0062] In this embodiment, the translational drive mechanism includes: a connecting through hole 1002 and a drive screw 12;

[0063] Please see Figure 9 The connecting through hole 1002 is provided on the side wall of the fixed base 10. The connecting through hole 1002 is axially connected to the movable groove 1001. The side wall of the connecting through hole 1002 is provided with threads.

[0064] One end of the drive screw 12 is rotatably connected to the locking block 11, and the drive screw 12 is threadedly connected to the connecting through hole 1002;

[0065] In this embodiment, when the drive screw 12 rotates, it can drive the locking block 11 to move in the movable groove 1001. The rotation of the drive screw 12 can be driven manually by the worker or by electric control.

[0066] The embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms are within the protection scope of this application.
