Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cutting tool cooling devices, specifically a cooling device for metal cutting tools. Background Technology

[0002] During metal cutting, the high-speed friction between the cutting tool and the workpiece generates a large amount of heat. If it cannot be cooled in time, it will lead to accelerated tool wear and shortened service life, while also affecting the machining accuracy and surface quality of the workpiece. Therefore, the cutting tool cooling device is a key auxiliary equipment in machine tool processing, and the cooling nozzle, as the core component of the cooling device, directly affects the cooling effect in terms of its installation stability and ease of position adjustment.

[0003] Existing nozzles that are attracted by ordinary magnets require a large external force to separate from the machine tool housing due to the strong attraction between the magnet and the housing. This can easily damage the nozzle or the housing. Furthermore, it is difficult to achieve precise position adjustment, which seriously affects the optimization of processing efficiency and cooling effect. Therefore, there is a need to provide a cooling device that can flexibly adjust its position to improve the convenience of adjustment. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a cooling device for metal cutting tools to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] This utility model relates to a cooling device for metal cutting tools, comprising:

[0006] A sprayer, a bracket, and a base, wherein the bracket is fixed to the lower surface of the sprayer, and the base is fixed to the lower surface of the bracket;

[0007] The mounting assembly includes a mounting slot, a magnet, a square slot, and a fixing frame. The mounting slot has a T-shaped cross-section and is located inside the base. The magnet has a T-shaped cross-section and is movably placed inside the mounting slot. The square slot is located on both sides of the outer surface of the base and is interconnected with the mounting slot. There are two fixing frames, which are fixed to the outside of the corresponding square slots.

[0008] Furthermore, an air inlet is fixed on the upper surface of the sprayer, a shaping tube is fixedly connected to one end of the sprayer, a nozzle is fixed to the end of the shaping tube, and a water inlet is fixed on one side of the outer surface of the bracket.

[0009] Furthermore, a movable groove is provided on one side of the outer surface of the fixed frame, and the movable groove is directly opposite to the square groove.

[0010] Furthermore, a movable plate slides through the movable groove and the square groove, and a baffle is fixed at one end of the movable plate.

[0011] Furthermore, a spring is fixed to one side of the baffle, and the spring is located between the fixed frame and the baffle. An inclined groove is provided at the other end of the movable plate, and the inclined groove is in contact with the magnet.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a reinforcement component, which includes a fixing frame, a threaded hole, and a threaded rod. There are two fixing frames, which are fixed on both sides of the outer surface of the water inlet. The threaded hole is opened on one side of the fixing frame, and the threaded rod is threaded through the inside of the threaded hole.

[0013] Furthermore, one end of the threaded rod is rotatably connected to a bearing, and a clamping block is fixed to one side of the bearing.

[0014] Furthermore, an inlet pipe is sleeved inside the inlet, and the outer surface of the inlet pipe is in contact with the clamping block.

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] This utility model, through the design of a sprayer, air inlet, shaping tube, nozzle, bracket, water inlet, base, and mounting components, allows for the cooling of cutting tools. When the cutting tool is cooled, the base is installed in the desired position. The cutting tool is typically located inside the machine tool, whose outer shell is made of steel and can be attracted by a magnet. The magnet is positioned within a mounting groove. When the magnet contacts the machine tool shell, it moves outward within the groove until it is flush with the lower surface of the base, thus adhering to the machine tool shell.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model is a cooling device for metal cutting tools, comprising:

[0029] The sprayer 11, the bracket 15 and the base 17 are fixed to the lower surface of the sprayer 11, the base 17 is fixed to the lower surface of the bracket 15, the upper surface of the sprayer 11 is fixed with an air inlet 12, one end of the sprayer 11 is fixedly connected with a shaping tube 13, the end of the shaping tube 13 is fixed with a nozzle 14, and one side of the outer surface of the bracket 15 is fixed with a water inlet 16.

[0030] The sprayer 11 mixes cutting fluid with compressed air, which is then sprayed through the nozzle 14 to form a specific jet stream that directly acts on the cutting area of ​​the cutting tool to achieve cooling. The base 17 provides installation space for components such as the magnet 22 and the movable plate 26, and also fixes the device as a whole through contact with the machine tool housing. The shaping tube 13 can be manually bent and adjusted according to the tool position to ensure that the nozzle 14 is accurately aligned with the cutting point. The nozzle 14 is the final spray port for the cooling medium.

[0031] The mounting components include a mounting slot 21, a magnet 22, a square slot 23, and a fixing frame 24. The mounting slot 21 has a T-shaped cross-section and is located inside the base 17. The magnet 22 has a T-shaped cross-section and is movably placed inside the mounting slot 21. The square slot 23 is located on both sides of the outer surface of the base 17 and is interconnected with the mounting slot 21. There are two fixing frames 24, which are fixed to the outside of the corresponding square slot 23.

[0032] The mounting groove 21 has a T-shaped cross-section, which matches the T-shaped magnet 22. This restricts the lateral movement of the magnet 22 to prevent it from falling out of the base 17, while allowing the magnet 22 to move up and down along the groove. The magnet 22 uses its attraction to the steel material. The square groove 23 serves as the moving channel for the movable plate 26.

[0033] A movable groove 25 is provided on one side of the outer surface of the fixed frame 24, and the movable groove 25 is directly opposite to the square groove 23. A movable plate 26 slides through the movable groove 25 and the square groove 23. A baffle 27 is fixed at one end of the movable plate 26, and a spring 28 is fixed on one side of the baffle 27. The spring 28 is located between the fixed frame 24 and the baffle 27. A slanted groove 29 is provided at the other end of the movable plate 26, and the slanted groove 29 is in contact with the magnet 22.

[0034] The fixed frame 24 limits and protects the movable plate 26, the baffle 27, and the spring 28, while providing a support point for the spring 28. The movable groove 25 corresponds to the square groove 23 and provides guidance for the lateral sliding of the movable plate 26. When the baffle 27 moves laterally, the lateral force can be converted into an upward pushing force on the magnet 22 through the guiding effect of the inclined groove 29, causing the magnet 22 to rise in the mounting groove 21. When the spring 28 is in its natural state, it pushes the baffle 27 outward through elastic force, causing the movable plate 26 to return to its original position and move away from the mounting groove 21. At this time, the movable plate 26 does not apply a pushing force to the magnet 22, ensuring that the magnet 22 can fall naturally and be attracted to the machine tool housing. The inclined groove 29 contacts the magnet 22, and its inclined angle design can convert the lateral movement of the movable plate 26 into the longitudinal movement of the magnet 22.

[0035] Working principle:

[0036] When cooling the cutting tool, the base 17 is installed in the required position. The cutting tool is usually located inside the machine tool. The outer shell of the machine tool is made of steel and can be attracted by a magnet. The magnet 22 is in the mounting groove 21. When the magnet 22 contacts the machine tool shell, the magnet 22 will move outward in the mounting groove 21, so that the magnet 22 and the lower surface of the base 17 are on the same plane. At this time, the magnet 22 is attracted to the machine tool shell. When it is necessary to change the position of the sprayer 11, simply press the baffle 27 in the middle. The baffle 27 drives the movable plate 26 to move in the middle in sync, so that the spring 28 is compressed. The end of the movable plate 26 extends into the mounting groove 21, and under the guidance of the inclined groove 29, the magnet 22 is moved upward in the mounting groove 21, so that the magnet 22 is separated from the machine tool shell.

[0037] This step facilitates the adjustment of the sprayer 11's installation position, forming a complete and efficient installation and adjustment mechanism that ensures both the stability of the installation and the convenience of adjustment, thereby improving the applicability of the sprayer 11.

[0038] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment, based on the above embodiment, further includes:

[0039] The reinforcement component includes a fixing bracket 31, a threaded hole 32, and a threaded rod 33. There are two fixing brackets 31, which are fixed on both sides of the outer surface of the water inlet 16 respectively. The threaded hole 32 is opened on one side of the fixing bracket 31, and the threaded rod 33 is threaded through the inside of the threaded hole 32.

[0040] The fixed frame 31 serves as the basic support component of the reinforcement assembly. When the threaded rod 33 is rotated, the threaded hole 32 can convert the rotational motion into the horizontal movement of the threaded rod 33. It is the key structure for adjusting the position of the clamping block 35. The threaded rod 33 passes through the threaded hole 32 through the thread. One end of the threaded rod is connected to the bearing 34, and the other end can be used as the operating end for the user to rotate. When rotated, the horizontal displacement is generated under the action of the threaded hole 32, thereby pushing the clamping block 35 closer to or away from the water inlet pipe 36.

[0041] One end of the threaded rod 33 is rotatably passed through the bearing 34, and a clamping block 35 is fixed on one side of the bearing 34. A water inlet pipe 36 is sleeved inside the water inlet 16, and the outer surface of the water inlet pipe 36 is in contact with the clamping block 35.

[0042] When the threaded rod 33 rotates, the bearing 34 prevents the clamping block 35 from rotating with the threaded rod 33, ensuring that the clamping block 35 only moves horizontally. This ensures that a stable lateral force is applied to the water inlet pipe 36 during clamping. Under the push of the threaded rod 33, the two clamping blocks clamp the water inlet pipe 36 from both sides, forming a channel for the cutting fluid to enter the device. After contacting the clamping block 35, the cutting fluid is fixed under the clamping action of the clamping block, ensuring that the cutting fluid can stably enter the sprayer 11 from the water inlet pipe 36 through the water inlet 16, providing a continuous cooling medium for the cooling process.

[0043] Working principle:

[0044] When connecting the water inlet pipe 36, in order to improve the stability of the connection, by rotating the threaded rod 33, under the connection of the bearing 34, the clamping block 35 only moves horizontally, clamping the outer surface of the water inlet pipe 36 with the clamping block 35, so as to prevent the water inlet pipe 36 from falling out of the water inlet 16.

[0045] This step, by rotating the threaded rod 33 to drive the clamping block 35 to move horizontally and clamp the outer surface of the water inlet pipe 36, can generate a continuous and adjustable clamping force, effectively preventing the water inlet pipe 36 from falling off the water inlet 16 due to machine tool vibration, cutting fluid pressure fluctuation or accidental pulling, and avoiding cooling interruption caused by cutting fluid leakage.

[0046] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of this utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
