Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machine tool cleaning technology, specifically a machine tool chip removal structure. Background Technology
[0002] During machining, machine tools generate a large amount of iron filings. Our traditional method is to use the slope of the machine tool's outer cover and add a chip flushing device to clean the iron filings generated during machining. However, this chip removal method can cause iron filings to accumulate in the corners of the machine tool and on the inner cover, resulting in iron filings piling up. At this point, people need to enter the machine tool to clean them, which will seriously reduce the customer's production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem solved by this utility model is: to solve the problem of difficult cleaning of machine tool chips in the prior art.
[0004] This utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: a machine tool chip removal structure, including a machine tool body, a saddle is slidably arranged inside the machine tool body, the saddle is installed at the output end of the sliding module, and a machine tool chip flushing pipe for flushing waste chips is provided on the saddle.
[0005] A further technical improvement of this utility model is that the sliding module includes a conveyor belt and a conveyor roller, the conveyor roller is set at the output end of the conveyor motor, and the saddle is set at the output end of the conveyor belt.
[0006] A further technical improvement of this utility model is that: several sets of automatic nozzles are rotatably arranged on the chip punching tube of the machine tool, and the rotation angle of the automatic nozzles is 360 degrees.
[0007] A further technical improvement of this utility model is that: the automatic nozzle includes a spray pipe and a spray outlet, the spray pipe and the spray outlet are fixedly connected, the outer ring of the spray pipe is rotatably mounted on the spray support base, and a power unit is fixed on the spray base.
[0008] A further technical improvement of this utility model is that: a power motor is fixed inside the power housing, the power motor drives and connects to a power gear, and a first gear is fixed on the outer ring of the ejection pipe, the first gear and the power gear meshing and connecting.
[0009] A further technical improvement of this utility model is that the ejection support base is fixedly installed on the saddle.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This application utilizes a mobile flushing system: the saddle and flushing pipe are driven to move inside the machine tool via a sliding module, allowing the nozzles to cover corners, guard gaps, and complex structural areas that traditional fixed chip flushing cannot reach, eliminating iron filings accumulation at the source. Furthermore, this application uses automatic nozzles driven by gears to achieve 360° rotating spraying, with the water flow trajectory distributed in a three-dimensional mesh pattern, achieving efficient flushing of curved surfaces, grooves, and other irregular structures, increasing the iron filings removal rate by more than 90%.
[0011] 2. This application utilizes an arc-shaped limiting end to first detect the steps / inclines and trigger height adjustment. Subsequently, this application uses a spring and a buffer elastic tube to keep the nozzle at the optimal rinsing distance (5-15mm) in real time, avoiding collisions and maintaining the water flow impact force. In addition, the buffer elastic tube in this application automatically compensates for displacement when the nozzle rises and falls, ensuring that the high-pressure water circuit is sealed throughout, eliminating the risk of equipment short circuit caused by water leakage.

Detailed Implementation
[0015] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0016] Please see Figure 1-3As shown, a machine tool chip removal structure includes a machine tool body. A saddle 2 is provided inside the machine tool body and is slidably connected to the machine tool body. The saddle 2 is installed at the output end of a sliding module, which is fixedly installed inside the machine tool body. The sliding module drives the saddle 2 to slide inside the machine tool body, thereby driving the machine tool chip flushing pipe 1 fixedly installed on the saddle 2 to move. This allows the machine tool chip flushing pipe 1 to act inside the machine tool body and clean the residual chips in the corners of the machine tool body.
[0017] Furthermore, the sliding module adopts a structure of conveyor belt and conveyor roller. That is, the conveyor motor drives the conveyor roller, so that the conveyor belt between adjacent conveyor rollers moves, thereby moving the saddle 2 fixedly installed on the fixed part of the conveyor belt. Therefore, in this application, the conveyor motor drives the conveyor roller, so that the conveyor belt can drive the saddle 2 to slide on the conveyor base, thereby driving the machine tool chip punch tube 1 to move.
[0018] Furthermore, several sets of automatic nozzles 3 are rotatably installed on the chip flushing tube 1 of the machine tool. The automatic nozzles 3 can rotate 360 degrees. When the chip flushing tube 1 of the machine tool is opened, an external water pump is used to flush cleaning water into the interior of the chip flushing tube 1 of the machine tool, and then spray it out from the automatic nozzles 3 onto the machine tool body. At this time, the automatic nozzles 3 rotate automatically, which can fully act on the machine tool body and clean all corners of the machine tool body, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the machine tool body.
[0019] Furthermore, to achieve the rotation of the automatic nozzle 3, the automatic nozzle 3 includes a spray pipe 5 and a spray outlet 9, wherein the spray pipe 5 and the spray outlet 9 are fixedly connected. The outer ring of the spray pipe 5 is rotatably mounted on the spray support base 8, and a power housing 11 is fixed on the spray support base 8. A power motor 10 is fixed inside the power housing 11, wherein the power motor 10 drives and connects to a power gear 12. A first gear 6 is fixed on the outer ring of the spray pipe 5. By using the meshing connection between the first gear 6 and the power gear 12, the spray pipe 5 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the spray outlet 9 to rotate. In this application, the starting of the power motor 10 inside the power housing 11 controls the rotation of the power gear 12, thereby controlling the rotation of the first gear 6 meshing with the power gear 12, driving the spray pipe 5 to rotate, thereby realizing the rotation of the spray outlet 9, enabling the spray outlet 9 to rotate and achieving a multi-angle cleaning function.
[0020] As a further embodiment of this application, in order to fix the ejection support base 8, the ejection support base 8 is fixedly installed on the saddle 2, so as to stably maintain the position of the ejection support base 8 and enable the ejection support base 8 to be stably rotatedly connected with the ejection outlet 9.
[0021] Since the machine tool body may have an inclined layout inside, if the nozzle 9 is kept at a certain height, it is very easy to collide with the internal structure of the machine tool body. Therefore, as another embodiment of this application, a side support rod 7 is fixed on the side of the nozzle support base 8. The bottom of the side support rod 7 is fixed with a limiting support rod 16, and an arc-shaped limiting end 17 is fixed at the end of the limiting support rod 16. The bottom of the arc-shaped limiting end 17 is lower than the bottom height of the nozzle 9. When encountering a stepped layout during use, the arc-shaped limiting end 17 will first contact different heights when moving, so as to ensure that the nozzle 9 is always at a certain height with the working position of the machine tool body, and avoid the problem of poor cleaning effect caused by the nozzle 9 directly contacting the machine tool body.
[0022] Furthermore, to achieve height adjustment of the ejector support base 8, the ejector support base 8 and the saddle 2 are longitudinally slidably connected by a spring. Simultaneously, an internal connecting pipe 14 is fixed to the ejector pipe 5, which is slidably connected to the top pipe 13. A buffer elastic pipe 15 is provided between the top pipe 13 and the ejector pipe 5. This buffer spring pipe 15 has a certain extension capacity, used to adjust the position of the ejector outlet 9. Therefore, during use, when the arc-shaped limiting end 17 contacts the stepped plane, the arc-shaped limiting end 17 moves and contacts the stepped plane during saddle 2 height adjustment. On the ladder plane, the ejector support base 8 can function when the height of the saddle 2 is adjusted to maintain the distance between the ejector outlet 9 and the spray plane. If the arc-shaped limiting end 17 contacts the unset inclined surface, the longitudinal movement of the arc-shaped limiting end 17 will drive the ejector support base 8 to move longitudinally, compressing the spring and causing the ejector pipe 5 to move upward. At this time, the internal connecting pipe 14 moves along the top pipe 13 until the buffer elastic pipe 15 deforms. At this time, the buffer elastic pipe 15 is used to achieve the sealing function between the top pipe 13 and the ejector pipe 5 to avoid leakage.
[0023] In use, this utility model utilizes a sliding module to drive the saddle 2 to slide inside the machine tool body, thereby driving the machine tool chip flushing tube 1, which is fixedly installed on the saddle 2, to move, so that the machine tool chip flushing tube 1 can act inside the machine tool body to clean the residual chips in the corners of the machine tool body. When the saddle 2 moves inside the machine tool body, when it encounters a stepped layout during use, the arc-shaped limiting end 17 first contacts positions at different heights during movement, so as to ensure that the spray nozzle 9 always has a certain height with the working position of the machine tool body, and avoids the problem of poor cleaning effect caused by the spray nozzle 9 directly contacting the machine tool body. When the arc-shaped limiting end 17 contacts the stepped plane, the arc-shaped limiting end 17 moves and contacts the stepped plane when the height of the saddle 2 is adjusted. At this time, the ejector support base 8 can function when the height of the saddle 2 is adjusted to maintain the distance between the ejector outlet 9 and the spray plane. If the arc-shaped limiting end 17 contacts an undefined inclined plane, the longitudinal movement of the arc-shaped limiting end 17 drives the ejector support base 8 to move longitudinally, compressing the spring and causing the ejector pipe 5 to move upward. At this time, the internal connecting pipe 14 moves along the top pipe 13 until the buffer elastic pipe 15 deforms. At this time, the buffer elastic pipe 15 is used to achieve the sealing function between the top pipe 13 and the ejector pipe 5 to avoid leakage.
[0024] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
