Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining equipment, specifically to a protective cover for a direct-drive CNC turning and milling composite machine tool. Background Technology
[0002] Mill-turn turning (MCT) machines are the fastest-growing and most widely used CNC equipment among multi-machine tools, and represent a significant direction in machine tool development. Compared to conventional CNC machining processes, MCT machines offer several key advantages: shortened manufacturing process chains, increased production efficiency; fewer setups, improved machining accuracy; and reduced floor space, lowering production costs. For businesses, MCT machines significantly save on machine room space and reduce the number of operators required, thus gaining increasing acceptance among manufacturing enterprises.
[0003] Milling and turning composite machine tools, as high-precision machining tools, have relatively high purchase costs and requirements for the machining environment. At the same time, the machining process will generate a certain amount of machining debris and coolant splashing. Installing a protective cover on the outside of the milling and turning composite machine tool to ensure the accuracy of the machine tool and block the debris and coolant splashing generated during the machining process has become the choice of more and more companies.
[0004] However, existing protective covers for composite machine tools in workshops can only provide protection and have limited functionality. They are not well-suited to the protective needs of milling and turning composite machine tools, especially direct-drive CNC machine tools. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a protective cover for a direct-drive CNC milling and turning composite machine tool that can solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a protective cover for a direct-drive CNC milling and turning machine tool, comprising a cover body. The cover body includes a front side plate, a rear side plate, a left side plate, a right side plate, and a top side plate, forming a downward-facing cover body. An opening communicating with the cover body is provided at the connection between the front side plate and the top side plate. An L-shaped protective door is slidably connected between the front side plate and the top side plate above the opening. A machine tool spindle maintenance door is provided on one side of the opening on the front side plate. A feed port and a cooler mounting port are provided on the left side plate. A machine tool spindle mounting groove and a cooling fan mounting groove are provided on the right side plate.

The control slot is connected to the cooling machine mounting port via a connection port. A dust collector mounting slot is located on the upper side plate and is connected to the interior of the cover.
[0007] Optionally, the protective door includes a movable protective door that slides above the opening and a fixed protective door disposed on one side of the opening. The front side plate is provided with a slide rail for the movable protective door to slide on the front side of the bottom of the opening, and the fixed protective door is fixedly connected to the front side plate on the side away from the movable protective door.
[0008] Optionally, the movable protective door has a first observation window at the lower center of its surface, and it is an integrated structure.
[0009] Optionally, a handle is embedded in the lower end of the surface of the movable protective door, near the side of the fixed protective door.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: (1) The present invention has a cooling machine mounting port on the right side plate that matches the cooling machine, so that the protective cover can have the function of cooling the inside of the cooling machine after the cooling machine is installed on the cooling machine mounting port. The control slot that matches the cooling machine control panel is connected to the cooling machine mounting port through the connection port to realize the cooling function.
[0013] (2) By setting up a heat dissipation plate, the protective cover has the function of heat dissipating the machine tool during operation. The heat dissipation fan mounting slot is set up and the heat dissipation fan mounting slot is connected to the electrical control box mounting slot, so that the protective cover has the function of heat dissipating the control box after the heat dissipation fan is installed in the heat dissipation fan mounting slot, thereby avoiding the machine tool from overheating during long-term operation and reducing the machine tool's lifespan.
