Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grinding, and in particular to a grinding wastewater discharge structure. Background Technology

[0002] In industries such as machinery manufacturing and metal processing, grinding is a crucial precision machining method widely used for surface finishing and dimensional accuracy control of parts. During grinding, the high-speed friction between the grinding wheel and the workpiece generates a large amount of metal shavings, abrasive grains, and a mixture of cooling and lubricating fluid, forming waste residue. These shavings not only scatter on the machine tool's worktable, guide rail gaps, and around the machining area, but may also adhere to the inner walls of the equipment and the surface of the workpiece due to electrostatic adsorption or airflow. If not cleaned in time, long-term accumulation can lead to jamming of moving parts in the machine tool, decreased accuracy, and even equipment failure. Furthermore, residual shavings can scratch the surface of workpieces processed subsequently, affecting product quality.

[0003] Currently, the industry primarily relies on manual cleaning for grinding debris. This involves operators using brushes and scrapers to sweep the processing area after each machining step, and then collecting the debris using vacuum cleaners or by hand. This method not only interrupts production, consuming extra time and reducing processing efficiency, but also poses safety hazards. Workers are in close contact with sharp debris and potential metal dust during manual cleaning, leading to injuries or the inhalation of harmful dust. Utility Model Content

[0004] To improve the ease of cleaning up debris generated during grinding, this utility model provides a grinding waste removal structure.

[0005] This utility model provides a technical solution that adopts the following approach:

[0006] A grinding wastewater discharge structure includes a frame and a processing station disposed within the frame. A wastewater discharge trough is provided at the bottom of the processing station. The two ends of the wastewater discharge trough pass through both sides of the frame. Collection boxes are provided at both ends of the frame. A vibrating element is provided inside the wastewater discharge trough. The bottom wall of the processing station is inclined inward toward the wastewater discharge trough.

[0007] During grinding, the generated chips fall onto the bottom wall of the machining station. Simultaneously, the vibrating element is activated, vibrating the chips onto the bottom wall and directing them into a drain trough. The chips are then pushed from one end of the trough to the other end into a collection box. By utilizing a low-level trough within the machining station and leveraging the weight of the chips to fall into the drain trough, cleaning is only required on the outside of the machine frame. Workers do not need to bend over to enter the machine frame, and the chips are collected in the drain trough, making cleaning easier.

[0008] Preferably, the sewage trough is a straight trough, and the bottom wall of the sewage trough is an arc surface.

[0009] After the debris falls into the drain trough, there are no sharp edges to squeeze it. The curved surface of the trough makes it easier for the debris to move within the drain trough and push it out of the drain trough, which helps to improve the efficiency of sewage discharge.

[0010] Preferably, the drain trough divides the bottom wall of the processing station into a front side and a rear side, and both the front side and the rear side are inclined toward the bottom wall of the drain trough.

[0011] The segmented inclined bottom wall allows the bottom wall of the processing station to maintain a sufficient inclination while reducing the overall height required for the frame, making the overall space utilization more reasonable and helping to reduce space occupancy.

[0012] Preferably, the rear side is provided with two raising platforms for supporting the grinding structure bracket, and the bottom wall of the processing station is provided with a support platform for supporting the product. There is a gap between the support platform and the raising platform, and a deep groove is recessed in the gap space between the support platform and the raising platform. The bottom wall of the deep groove is an inclined surface parallel to the rear side, and the deep groove is connected to the sewage trough.

[0013] More debris is generated near the support platform. The deep groove increases the slope depth of the machining station near the support platform, providing more space for debris and reducing debris accumulation.

[0014] Preferably, the front side is close to the feed inlet of the frame, and the length of the front side is less than the length of the rear side.

[0015] Preferably, the bottom wall of the support platform has an avoidance hole that is directly opposite to the sewage trough. The length direction of the avoidance hole is consistent with the length direction of the sewage trough, and the avoidance hole penetrates through the support platform.

[0016] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0017] During grinding, the generated chips fall onto the bottom wall of the machining station. Simultaneously, the vibrating element is activated, vibrating the chips onto the bottom wall and directing them into a drain trough. The chips are then pushed from one end of the trough to the other end into a collection box. By utilizing a low-level trough within the machining station and leveraging the weight of the chips to fall into the drain trough, cleaning is only required on the outside of the machine frame. Workers do not need to bend over to enter the machine frame, and the chips are collected in the drain trough, making cleaning easier. Attached Figure Description

[0019] Explanation of reference numerals in the attached diagram: 1. Frame; 2. Processing station; 3. Drainage trough; 4. Front side; 5. Rear side; 6. Elevating platform; 7. Support platform; 8. Deep groove; 9. Clearance hole. Detailed Implementation

[0020] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 The present invention will be described in further detail below.

[0021] This utility model discloses a grinding sewage discharge structure.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 A grinding wastewater discharge structure includes a frame 1 and a processing station 2 disposed within the frame 1. A wastewater discharge trough 3 is provided at the bottom of the processing station 2. The two ends of the wastewater discharge trough 3 pass through the two sides of the frame 1 respectively. Collection boxes are provided at both ends of the frame 1. A vibrating element is provided inside the wastewater discharge trough 3. The bottom wall of the processing station 2 is inclined inward towards the wastewater discharge trough 3.

[0023] During grinding, the generated chips fall onto the bottom wall of machining station 2. Simultaneously, the vibrating element is activated, vibrating the chips onto the bottom wall of machining station 2 and into the drain trough 3. The chips are then pushed from one end of the drain trough 3 to the other end into the collection box. By utilizing the low-level trough within machining station 2 and leveraging the gravity of the chips to fall into the drain trough 3, cleaning only requires working on the outside of the frame 1. Workers do not need to bend over and enter the frame 1, and the chips are collected in the drain trough 3, making cleaning easier.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the sewage trough 3 is a straight trough, and the bottom wall of the sewage trough 3 is an arc surface.

[0025] After the debris falls into the drain trough 3, there are no edges or corners to squeeze the debris. The curved surface of the trough makes it easier for the debris to move within the drain trough 3, making it easier to push the debris out of the drain trough 3, which helps to improve the efficiency of sewage discharge.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the sewage trough 3 divides the bottom wall of the processing station 2 into a front side 4 and a rear side 5, and both the front side 4 and the rear side 5 are inclined towards the bottom wall of the sewage trough 3.

[0027] The bottom wall, which would otherwise require a significant overall tilt, is divided into two inclined surfaces facing the drain trough 3. This allows each side to maintain a sufficient tilt angle, ensuring that debris slides smoothly into the drain trough 3 under gravity, preventing residue buildup on the bottom wall. Furthermore, it eliminates the need to increase the overall height of the frame 1 for a single large tilt angle. This not only makes the equipment more compact and efficient in terms of spatial layout, reducing its footprint on the production floor, but also allows debris to enter the drain trough 3 more quickly and in a more concentrated manner under the guidance of the two inclined surfaces, further improving the efficiency of drainage and subsequent cleaning.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the rear side 5 is provided with two raised platforms 6 for supporting the grinding structure bracket, and the bottom wall of the processing station 2 is provided with a support platform 7 for supporting the product. There is a gap between the support platform 7 and the raised platform 6. A deep groove 8 is recessed in the gap space between the support platform 7 and the raised platform 6. The bottom wall of the deep groove 8 is an inclined surface parallel to the rear side 5, and the deep groove 8 is connected to the sewage trough 3.

[0029] More debris is generated near the support platform 7. The deep groove 8 increases the slope depth of the part of the machining station 2 near the support platform 7, providing more space for debris and reducing debris accumulation.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the front side 4 is close to the feed inlet of the frame 1, and the length of the front side 4 is less than the length of the rear side 5.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the bottom wall of the support platform 7 has an avoidance hole 9 that is directly opposite to the sewage trough 3. The length direction of the avoidance hole 9 is consistent with the length direction of the sewage trough 3, and the avoidance hole 9 penetrates through the support platform 7.

[0032] The above are all preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of this utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
