Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the field of machine tool technology, and more specifically, to a CNC machine tool for automatically separating and recycling magnetic waste. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of machining, CNC machine tools, with their advantages of high precision and high efficiency, are widely used in the cutting and milling of metal parts. The machining process generates a large amount of waste (such as bulk metal scraps) and waste chips (such as metal shavings), including magnetic waste such as iron and steel. With the advancement of green manufacturing concepts, the recycling of magnetic materials from waste is becoming increasingly important, as it can reduce resource waste and decrease solid waste treatment costs. However, traditional CNC machine tools generally have the significant drawback of being unable to separate magnetic waste from scrap, severely restricting resource recycling efficiency and processing environment management. Traditional CNC machine tools typically collect waste materials and chips through a unified chip removal system, resulting in a mixture of magnetic and non-magnetic waste (such as aluminum and copper shavings). Recycling magnetic waste requires subsequent manual sorting, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive with low sorting efficiency, but also makes it difficult to completely separate fine magnetic chips, leading to a low recovery rate of magnetic materials and resource waste. Furthermore, if the mixed magnetic waste accumulates in the chip removal pipes or storage boxes for a long time, it easily clumps together and blocks the chip removal channels, requiring frequent machine shutdowns for cleaning, affecting continuous operation of the CNC machine tool and reducing production efficiency. Therefore, developing CNC machine tools with automatic separation and recycling functions for magnetic waste has become an urgent need for the industry to promote green manufacturing and improve resource utilization.

A magnetic plate is provided on one side of the collection box, and the magnetic plate slides against the inner wall of the rotating cylinder, covering two-thirds of the inner wall of the rotating cylinder. Several discharge plates are provided on the surface of the rotating cylinder.

[0005] As a further technical solution, a blocking frame is provided on the upper inner side of the collection box, the blocking frame is located at the upper end of the conveyor plate, and a boss is provided on the bottom inner side of the collection box, one side of the boss being an inclined structural surface.

[0006] As a further technical solution, a discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the collection box, one end of which extends to the outside of the collection box, and a pusher auger is provided inside the discharge pipe.

[0007] As a further technical solution, the discharge pipe is located between the boss and the inner wall of the collection box, and the bottom of the collection box is provided with a magnetic waste discharge port, which is located on the other side of the boss.

[0008] As a further technical solution, a pair of connecting frames are provided at the bottom of the collection box, and a recycling box is horizontally slidably inserted into the connecting frames, and the recycling box is sealed and fitted to the bottom surface of the collection box.

[0009] According to another aspect, in at least one embodiment of the present invention, the connecting and separating assembly includes a drainage mesh, the drainage mesh being formed at the bottom of the waste discharge pipe, a sleeve being provided on the side surface of the machine tool body, and one end of the waste discharge pipe being inserted into the sleeve.

[0010] As a further technical solution, the waste discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the sleeve by bolts, a bottom cover is provided at the bottom of the waste discharge pipe, a sealing plate is inserted and connected inside the bottom cover, the sealing plate is fixedly connected to the bottom cover by bolts, a magnetic platform is provided on the surface of the sealing plate, and a drainage pipe is provided on one side of the bottom cover.

A rotating drum drives a conveyor plate to evenly lift the waste, while a magnetic plate precisely adsorbs the magnetic waste, which, after rotating, detaches from the magnetic area and falls directionally into the recycling box. Non-magnetic waste is guided by a blocking frame and a boss, and then efficiently discharged by a pushing auger. This structure eliminates the need for manual sorting, achieving automatic separation of magnetic and non-magnetic waste, improving recycling efficiency, reducing resource waste, and preventing magnetic waste from accumulating and clogging the discharge channel. This ensures continuous operation of CNC machine tools, reduces downtime for cleaning, and is suitable for waste processing needs in batch processing scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, it illustrates a CNC machine tool for automatically separating and recycling magnetic waste according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, comprising: The machine tool body 1 and the waste discharge pipe 2 are provided at the discharge port of the machine tool body 1; The collection box 3 and the connecting and separating component 5 are provided. The collection box 3 is connected to one end of the waste discharge pipe 2, and the connecting and separating component 5 is disposed between the waste discharge pipe 2 and the machine tool body 1. Separation and discharge assembly 4 is disposed in the collection box 3; The separation and discharge assembly 4 includes a rotating cylinder 4-1, which is horizontally connected to the collection box 3 via electric drive. A magnetic plate 4-2 is provided on one side of the collection box 3, and the magnetic plate 4-2 slides against the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 4-1, covering two-thirds of the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 4-1. Several pull-out plates 4-3 are provided on the surface of the rotating cylinder 4-1. A blocking frame 4-4 is provided at the upper inner side of the collection box 3, located above the pull-out plates 4-3. A boss 4-5 is provided at the bottom of the collection box 3, with one side of the boss 4-5 being inclined. In terms of structure, the bottom of the collection box 3 is provided with a discharge pipe 4-6, one end of which extends to the outside of the collection box 3. A pusher auger 4-7 is provided inside the discharge pipe 4-6. The discharge pipe 4-6 is located between the boss 4-5 and the inner wall of the collection box 3. The bottom of the collection box 3 is provided with a magnetic waste discharge port 4-8, which is located on the other side of the boss 4-5. The bottom of the collection box 3 is provided with a pair of connecting frames 4-9, and a recycling box 4-10 is horizontally slidably inserted into the connecting frames 4-9. The recycling box 4-10 is sealed and fitted to the bottom surface of the collection box 3.

[0022] In some examples, in order to achieve automatic separation, classified collection and directional discharge of magnetic waste and non-magnetic waste, improve waste recycling efficiency and reduce resource waste, a separation and discharge component 4 is designed. This component includes a rotating cylinder 4-1 that is horizontally rotatably connected inside the collection box 3. It is connected to the side wall of the collection box 3 through bearings and fixedly connected to the output end of an electric drive component (such as a geared motor). After the motor starts, it drives the rotating cylinder 4-1 to rotate stably, providing a power basis for waste separation.

[0023] Several pull-out plates 4-3 on the surface of the rotating cylinder 4-1 are evenly distributed along the circumference and can rotate synchronously with the rotating cylinder 4-1. During the rotation, they lift the mixed waste at the bottom of the collection box 3 upwards, ensuring that the mixed waste can fully contact the magnetic plate 4-2 and preventing the waste from accumulating at the bottom of the collection box 3.

[0024] The magnetic plate 4-2 on one side of the collection box 3 is fixed by a bracket and slides against the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 4-1, covering two-thirds of the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 4-1. Its strong magnetism can attract magnetic waste in the mixed waste, so that the magnetic waste moves synchronously with the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 4-1. When the rotating cylinder 4-1 drives the magnetic waste to rotate to an area not covered by the magnetic plate 4-2, the magnetic waste loses its magnetic attraction and falls under the action of gravity, thus achieving separation from the non-magnetic waste.

[0025] The baffle 4-4 on the upper inner side of the collection box 3 is located on the upper end of the conveyor plate 4-3. When the conveyor plate 4-3 carries the waste upward, it can scrape off the excess waste on the conveyor plate 4-3, avoiding excessive accumulation of waste and incomplete separation. At the same time, it guides the non-magnetic waste to move towards the protrusion 4-5 at the bottom of the collection box 3.

[0026] The bottom of the collection box 3 has a sloping surface on one side of the protrusion 4-5, which can guide non-magnetic waste to slide along the sloping surface to the inlet of the discharge pipe 4-6 between the protrusion 4-5 and the inner wall of the collection box 3; the pusher auger 4-7 in the discharge pipe 4-6 is driven by electricity to rotate, which can transport non-magnetic waste along the discharge pipe 4-6 to the outside of the collection box 3, thus completing the directional discharge of non-magnetic waste.

[0027] The magnetic waste discharge port 4-8 at the bottom of the collection box 3 is located on the other side of the boss 4-5. It can receive the magnetic waste falling off the rotating cylinder 4-1 and let the magnetic waste fall into the recycling box 4-10 below. A pair of connecting brackets 4-9 at the bottom of the collection box 3 provide horizontal sliding support for the recycling box 4-10. The recycling box 4-10 is sealed and fitted to the bottom surface of the collection box 3 to prevent the magnetic waste from scattering. At the same time, it is convenient for operators to pull out the recycling box 4-10 for magnetic waste recycling.

[0028] During operation, mixed waste enters the collection box 3. The rotating drum 4-1 drives the conveyor plate 4-3 to lift the waste. The magnetic plate 4-2 adsorbs magnetic waste, while non-magnetic waste is scraped off by the blocking frame 4-4 and enters the discharge pipe 4-6 along the inclined surface of the boss 4-5, and is discharged by the pusher auger 4-7. Magnetic waste rotates with the rotating drum 4-1 to the non-magnetic area and falls into the recycling box 4-10 through the magnetic waste discharge port 4-8. The components work together to achieve automatic separation, classified collection, and directional discharge of magnetic and non-magnetic waste, meeting the high-efficiency recycling needs of CNC machine tool processing waste.

[0029] like Figures 1-4As shown in the figure, the connection and separation component 5 in this embodiment includes a drainage mesh 5-1, which is opened at the bottom of the waste discharge pipe 2. A sleeve 5-2 is provided on the side surface of the machine tool body 1. One end of the waste discharge pipe 2 is inserted into the sleeve 5-2. The waste discharge pipe 2 and the sleeve 5-2 are fixedly connected by bolts. A bottom cover 5-3 is provided at the bottom of the waste discharge pipe 2. A sealing plate 5-4 is inserted and connected inside the bottom cover 5-3. The sealing plate 5-4 and the bottom cover 5-3 are fixedly connected by bolts. A magnetic platform 5-5 is provided on the surface of the sealing plate 5-4. A drainage pipe 5-6 is provided on one side of the bottom cover 5-3.

[0030] In some examples, in order to achieve a stable connection between the waste discharge pipe 2 and the machine tool body 1, and at the same time complete the initial separation of processing waste and wastewater, so as to avoid the mixing of wastewater and waste material affecting the subsequent separation efficiency and ensure a clean operating environment for the equipment.

[0031] The drainage mesh 5-1 at the bottom of the waste discharge pipe 2 is evenly distributed. When the waste material and wastewater mixture discharged from the machine tool flows through the waste discharge pipe 2, the wastewater falls into the bottom cover 5-3 below through the drainage mesh 5-1, realizing the initial separation of wastewater and waste material, reducing the amount of wastewater entering the collection box 3, and reducing the workload of the separation and discharge component 4.

[0032] The sleeve 5-2 on the side surface of the machine tool body 1 is fixed with bolts. One end of the waste discharge pipe 2 is inserted into the sleeve 5-2 and is fixedly connected to the sleeve 5-2 with bolts. The sleeve 5-2 can provide stable support for the connection between the waste discharge pipe 2 and the machine tool body 1, preventing the waste discharge pipe 2 from loosening or shifting due to long-term waste transportation, ensuring that the waste can smoothly enter the waste discharge pipe 2 from the outlet of the machine tool body 1, and avoiding waste leakage.

[0033] The bottom cover 5-3 at the bottom of the waste discharge pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the waste discharge pipe 2 by bolts. It can receive wastewater falling from the drainage mesh 5-1. The sealing plate 5-4 inserted into the bottom cover 5-3 is fixedly connected to the bottom cover 5-3 by bolts. The magnetic platform 5-5 on the surface of the sealing plate 5-4 can adsorb the small magnetic waste that may remain in the wastewater, further improving the waste recycling efficiency, while preventing the small magnetic waste from being discharged with the wastewater and causing resource waste.

[0034] The drainage pipe 5-6 on one side of the bottom cover 5-3 connects to the interior of the bottom cover 5-3, allowing filtered wastewater to be transported to external water treatment equipment for directional discharge. This prevents wastewater from accumulating and overflowing inside the bottom cover 5-3, ensuring a clean environment around the equipment. The bolted connection between the sealing plate 5-4 and the bottom cover 5-3 allows operators to periodically disassemble the sealing plate 5-4 to clean fine magnetic waste adsorbed on the magnetic table 5-5, while also maintaining the interior of the bottom cover 5-3 to ensure the long-term stable operation of the connection and separation assembly 5.

[0035] During operation, the mixture of waste material and wastewater generated from machine tool processing enters the waste discharge pipe 2. The wastewater falls into the bottom cover 5-3 through the drainage mesh 5-1. The magnetic table 5-5 adsorbs small magnetic waste materials in the wastewater. The filtered wastewater is discharged through the drainage pipe 5-6, while the waste material continues to flow along the waste discharge pipe 2 into the collection box 3. The sleeve 5-2 ensures a stable connection of the waste discharge pipe 2, the drainage mesh 5-1 achieves wastewater separation, the magnetic table 5-5 recovers small magnetic waste materials, and the sealing plate 5-4 ensures leak prevention. All components work together to achieve a stable connection of the pipe and separation of wastewater, laying the foundation for subsequent waste separation and recycling.

[0036] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, the upper surface of the magnetic stage 5-5 is an inclined structural surface.

[0037] In some examples, the upper surface of the magnetic stage 5-5 is an inclined surface. This design allows for the adsorption of fine magnetic waste while guiding wastewater smoothly to the drainage pipe 5-6 at the bottom of the base cover 5-3, preventing wastewater from accumulating on the surface of the magnetic stage 5-5. The inclined surface slopes downwards along the drainage pipe 5-6, allowing wastewater to flow quickly along the inclined surface after falling onto the magnetic stage 5-5, reducing contact time with the magnetic stage 5-5. This maintains the adsorption effect of the magnetic stage 5-5 on fine magnetic waste in the water while preventing slow drainage due to water accumulation.

[0038] In actual use: The mixture of waste material and wastewater generated by CNC machine tool processing enters the waste discharge pipe 2 from the outlet of the machine tool body 1. The drainage mesh 5-1 of the separation component 5 allows the wastewater to fall into the bottom cover 5-3. The magnetic table 5-5 adsorbs the fine magnetic waste material in the wastewater. The filtered wastewater is discharged through the drainage pipe 5-6. The waste material enters the collection box 3 along the waste discharge pipe 2. The rotating drum 4-1 of the separation discharge component 4 rotates under electric drive. The surface ejection plate 4-3 lifts up the mixed waste material. The magnetic plate 4-2 in the collection box 3 adsorbs the magnetic waste material. The non-magnetic waste material is scraped off by the blocking frame 4-4 and slides along the inclined surface of the boss 4-5 to the discharge pipe 4-6, where it is transported to the outside by the push auger 4-7. Magnetic waste is rotated by the rotating drum 4-1 to the non-magnetic area and falls into the recycling box 4-10 through the magnetic waste discharge port 4-8. The magnetic waste can be recycled by periodically removing the recycling box 4-10 on the connecting frame 4-9. The entire process realizes the initial separation of waste and wastewater and the automatic separation and recycling of magnetic and non-magnetic waste.
