Specifically, the cutting fluid return plate 8 includes: a fixed side plate 81 abutting against the door panel 6; a bottom plate 82 integrally formed on the bottom side of the fixed side plate 81, which is higher in the middle and lower on both sides; left / right plates 83 / 84 located at both ends of the bottom plate 82 and at both ends of the fixed side plate 81; and a front plate 85 located on the other side of the bottom plate 82, opposite to the fixed side plate 81, with a gap between it and the left / right plates 83 / 84. More specifically, the base plate 82 is U-shaped, and the front plate 85 is U-shaped. The base plate 82, the fixed side plate 81, the left / right plates 83 / 84, and the front plate 85 together form the return channel. The two guide channels are respectively formed by the bent ends of the base plate 82 and the front plate 85, and the left / right plates 83 / 84. The oil leak-proof plate 7 and the cutting fluid return plate 8 are installed on the door panel 6, making it convenient for cutting fluid return and collection after installation and use, reducing production costs while effectively maintaining the cleanliness of the production environment.

[0034] As can be seen from the above description, this product has a simple and reasonable structural design, occupies little space, effectively improves the needs of automated production, does not affect the operation of other equipment during use, is easy to disassemble and assemble, and thus facilitates size adjustment to improve product adaptability. The added cutting fluid return structure helps to keep the product processing environment clean, thereby improving production performance and also helps to reduce production costs.
