Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of machining protection technology, and in particular to a protective mechanism for a shaper. Background Technology

[0002] As a commonly used piece of equipment in the field of machining, shaper is widely used in the cutting of metal materials such as planes and grooves. During the machining process, the high-speed cutting of the tool and the workpiece will generate a large amount of iron chips. These iron chips are often accompanied by high temperature and fly at high speed. If there is no effective protective measures, they can easily injure the operators.

[0003] In related technologies, for the protection of iron filings during the processing of shaper machines, scrap boxes are usually used to collect the scraps that fall naturally during the processing, so as to reduce the scattering of iron filings around the equipment. At the same time, maintaining the distance between the operator and the processing area forms a protective distance, reducing the probability of direct contact with iron filings.

[0004] However, while the existing protective methods can reduce the impact of iron filings to some extent, the direction, speed and distance of iron filings during processing are affected by various factors such as cutting parameters, workpiece material and tool condition. The trajectory of iron filings is complex, and the material box alone cannot cover all the trajectory. Simply moving away from the protection can also cause iron filings to exceed the safe range due to excessive distance. Therefore, the comprehensiveness and reliability of the protection are insufficient. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a protective mechanism for a shaper.

[0006] The protective mechanism for a shaper provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A protective mechanism for a shaper includes a tool post base, a protective cover assembly, and a tool assembly. The protective cover assembly is fixed on the tool post base and covers the tool assembly. The protective cover assembly includes side plates and a front panel. Two side plates are provided, located at the left and right ends of the tool post base. The front panel is located at the front end of the tool post base.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the side plates at both ends can block iron chips from splashing to the left and right, and the front door plate at the front end can intercept iron chips splashing forward, forming a semi-enclosed protective space around the tool assembly. When the shaper is being processed, the iron chips splashing will be blocked by the corresponding side plates and the front door plate, reducing the situation where iron chips exceed the protection range. This effectively solves the problem that existing technologies cannot cover the entire splash trajectory by relying solely on the material box and the protection distance, thus improving the comprehensiveness and reliability of protection as well as the stability of iron chip protection.

[0008] Preferably, it also includes a receiving groove, which is built into the interior of the protective cover assembly.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the receiving groove can collect iron filings that fall after being blocked by side panels and front door panels, making the collection of iron filings more comprehensive and further improving the collection and protection effect of the protective cover assembly on iron filings.

[0010] Preferably, the front door panel is hinged to one of the side panels, and the front door panel is locked to the other side panel.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the front door panel is hinged to one of the side panels, which allows the front door panel to rotate flexibly for easy opening and closing. This facilitates operations such as workpiece loading and unloading, tool adjustment, and observation of iron filings. After opening the front door panel, the receiving groove can be directly removed to empty the iron filings. The locking connection with the other side panel ensures that the front door panel is firmly fixed during processing, ensuring that the front door panel and the two side panels fit tightly to form a protective space, reducing the escape of iron filings, and taking into account the convenience of operation, further improving the practical performance of the protective cover assembly.

[0012] Preferably, it also includes a locking assembly, which includes a latch and a lock seat. The latch is provided with a insertion groove and is hinged to the front door panel. The lock seat is fixedly connected to the side panel and the insertion groove is inserted into the lock seat.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the latch can be flexibly flipped to hinge with the front door panel, making it easy for operators to quickly open and close the front door panel. When locked, the insertion slot and the lock seat form an insertion fit, reducing the gap between the front door panel and the side panel due to force, and further reducing the splashing and overflow of iron filings.

[0014] Preferably, the protective cover assembly further includes an extension plate and an inner liner. Two extension plates are provided, with the sidewalls of the two extension plates abutting against the inner wall of the side plate. The inner liner has elastic deformation, and its two ends abut against the sidewalls of the extension plates.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the extension plate abuts against the side plate to expand the protective coverage area, and the two ends of the inner liner abut against the extension plate. Due to the elastic deformation of the inner liner, it compensates for the assembly gap between the extension plate and the side plate through its own elasticity, and absorbs the vibration and impact during the machining of the shaper, so as to continuously ensure that the extension plate and the side plate fit tightly, reduce the path of iron chips splashing out from the connection gap, and further enhance the protective cover assembly's ability to seal and protect iron chips with complex trajectories.

[0016] Preferably, the cover plate is located at the upper end of the side plate, and one end of the cover plate is hinged to the upper edge of one of the side plates.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the cover plate is located at the upper end of the side plate, and one end of the cover plate is hinged to the upper edge of one of the side plates. This not only forms a top protection by covering the upper end of the tool holder base with the cover plate, effectively intercepting upward-splashing iron filings, but also allows operators to quickly open and close the top area according to processing needs, thus balancing the integrity of protection and the convenience of operation.

[0018] Preferably, the cover plate is provided with a handle on its side wall, and the handle is fixed perpendicularly to the side wall of the cover plate.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the handle vertically fixed on the upper surface of the cover plate provides operators with a convenient gripping and force application point, making it easy to quickly and effortlessly flip the cover plate. While ensuring the cover plate's function of intercepting and protecting against iron filings on top, it further enhances the convenience and practicality of the protective cover assembly.

[0020] Preferably, it also includes air pipes, and several air pipes are provided. Several air pipes are fixed on the knife holder base, and the air pipes are connected to an external air supply device.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, after the air pipe is connected to the air supply equipment, the airflow can act on the iron filings that fall on the tool holder base, and use the gas pressure to blow these scattered iron filings into the receiving groove, reducing the accumulation of iron filings on the surface of the tool holder base, ensuring that the iron filings can be collected by the receiving groove, and further enhancing the protective cover assembly's ability to handle iron filings.

[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. The protective cover assembly is fixed to the tool holder base and covers the tool assembly. The two side plates of the tool assembly are respectively set at the left and right ends of the tool holder base to block the iron chips from splashing to the left and right. The front door plate is set at the front end to intercept the iron chips splashing in front, forming a semi-enclosed protective space around the tool assembly. When the shaper is processed, the iron chips splashing will be blocked by the corresponding side plates and the front door plate, reducing the situation where the iron chips exceed the protection range. This effectively solves the problem that the existing technology cannot cover the entire splash trajectory by relying only on the material box and the protection away from the edge, and improves the comprehensiveness and reliability of the protection as well as the stability of the iron chip protection. 2. The receiving groove is built into the protective cover assembly, which can collect iron filings that fall after being blocked by side panels, front door panels, etc., making the iron filings collection more comprehensive and further improving the collection and protection effect of the protective cover assembly on iron filings. 3. Two extension plates abut against the side plates to expand the protection range. The inner lining with elastic deformation abuts against the extension plates at both ends. Through its own elasticity, it compensates for the assembly gap between the extension plates and the side plates, absorbs processing vibration, reduces the escape of iron filings from the gaps, and further enhances the protection against iron filings.

[0028] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0029] This application discloses a protective mechanism for a shaper. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 A protective mechanism for a shaper includes a tool holder base 1, a protective cover assembly 2, and a tool assembly 3. The protective cover assembly 2 is fixed on the tool holder base 1 and covers the tool assembly 3. This can shield the iron filings generated by the tool assembly 3 during operation and reduce the chance of iron filings flying around and injuring the operator.

[0030] Specifically, the protective cover assembly 2 includes a side plate 21 and a front panel 22. There are two side plates 21, which are located at the left and right ends of the tool holder base 1. The front panel 22 is located at the front end of the tool holder base 1. The side plates 21 and the front panel 22 are rectangular flat plates. These three components are combined to form a semi-enclosed space that surrounds the tool assembly 3. When the tool is cutting, the iron filings generated are confined within this space. The side plates 21 at the left and right ends can prevent iron filings from splashing to the left and right, and the front panel 22 at the front end can intercept iron filings that splash forward, forming a semi-enclosed protective space surrounding the tool assembly 3.

[0031] Furthermore, the metal chips splashed during the machining of the shaper will be blocked by the corresponding side plate 21 and front door plate 22, reducing the possibility of metal chips exceeding the protection range. This effectively solves the problem that the existing technology cannot cover the entire splash trajectory by relying solely on the material box and the distance from the protection, improving the comprehensiveness and reliability of protection as well as the stability of metal chip protection, and reducing the possibility of splashing to the outside.

[0032] Meanwhile, the protection mechanism also includes a receiving groove 4, which is built into the protective cover assembly 2. The receiving groove 4 is rectangular in shape and has a certain depth. The function of the receiving groove 4 is to collect the iron filings that fall from the tool assembly 3.

[0033] Reference Figure 3 Furthermore, one end of the front door panel 22 is hinged to one of the side panels 21, and the other end of the front door panel 22 is locked to the other side panel 21. At the same time, the mechanism also includes a locking assembly 5, which includes a latch 51 and a lock seat 52. The latch 51 is provided with a insertion groove 511. One end of the latch 51 is hinged to the front door panel 22. The lock seat 52 is fixedly connected to the side panel 21. The insertion groove 511 and the lock seat 52 are inserted into each other. The latch 51 is elongated. The insertion groove 511 at the end of the latch 51 is set to a shape that matches the lock seat 52. At the same time, the latch 51 is also provided with a hinge shaft 512. The latch 51 is fixedly connected to the hinge shaft 512. The hinge shaft 512 is rotatably supported on the edge of the front door panel 22.

[0034] This explains that the hinge shaft 512 of the latch 51 rotates and is supported by the edge of the front door panel 22. The flexible rotation of the hinge shaft 512 as a fulcrum allows the insertion groove 511 to separate from the lock seat 52, thus unlocking and opening the front door panel 22. When closing, the front door panel 22 is rotated back to the position that fits against the side panel 21, and then the latch 51 is rotated in the opposite direction, so that the latch 51 rotates around the hinge shaft 512, allowing the insertion groove 511 to re-engage with the lock seat 52 to complete the locking.

[0035] Meanwhile, opening the front door panel 22 facilitates the operator to load and unload workpieces, adjust tools, and observe the scattering of iron filings. It also allows the receiving groove 4 to be removed directly to empty the iron filings. The locking connection between the front door panel 22 and the other side panel 21 can securely fix the front door panel 22 during processing, ensuring that the front door panel 22 fits snugly with the two side panels 21 to form a protective space and reduce the escape of iron filings.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 In addition, the protective cover assembly 2 also includes an extension plate 23 and an inner liner 24. There are two extension plates 23, which abut against the side plate 21. The extension plates 23 can further expand the protection range of the protective cover assembly 2. The inner liner 24 has elastic deformation. The two ends of the inner liner 24 abut against the side plate 21. Through the elasticity of the inner liner 24, the assembly gap between the extension plate 23 and the side plate 21 is compensated. At the same time, the vibration and impact during the machining of the shaper are absorbed, and the extension plate 23 and the side plate 21 are continuously ensured to fit tightly. This reduces the path of iron chips splashing out from the connection gap, and further enhances the protective cover assembly 2's ability to seal and protect against iron chips with complex trajectories.

[0037] Furthermore, the protective cover assembly 2 also includes a cover plate 25, which is located at the upper end of the side plate 21. One end of the cover plate 25 is hinged to the upper edge of one of the side plates 21. The cover plate 25 is flat and has a handle 251 on its side wall. The handle 251 is vertically fixed to the side wall of the cover plate 25. The handle 251, which is vertically fixed to the upper surface of the cover plate 25, provides the operator with a convenient gripping and force application point, making it easy to quickly and effortlessly flip the cover plate 25. This not only forms a top protection by covering the upper end of the tool holder base 1 with the cover plate 25 to effectively intercept upward-splashing iron filings, but also allows the operator to quickly open and close the top area according to processing needs, further enhancing the convenience and practicality of the protective cover assembly 2.

[0038] In addition, it also includes air pipes 6, and several air pipes 6 are provided. In this embodiment, there are two air pipes 6. The two air pipes 6 are fixed at both ends of the tool holder base 1. The air pipes 6 are connected to an external air supply device. The airflow can act on the iron filings that fall on the tool holder base 1 and use the gas pressure to blow these scattered iron filings towards the receiving groove 4, reducing the accumulation of iron filings on the surface of the tool holder base 1 and ensuring that the iron filings can be collected by the receiving groove 4, further enhancing the iron filings handling capability of the protective cover assembly 2.

[0039] The implementation principle of a shaper protection mechanism in this application embodiment is as follows: The protective cover assembly is fixed to the tool holder base and covers the tool assembly. Two side plates are respectively set at the left and right ends of the tool holder base. The front door panel is located at the front end of the tool holder base and is locked to the other side plate through a locking assembly. The cover plate is hinged to the upper end of one side plate and closed. The extension plate abuts against the inner wall of the side plate. The two ends of the inner liner abut against the extension plate. The air pipe is fixed to both ends of the tool holder base and connected to the external air supply equipment. The receiving groove is built into the inside of the protective cover assembly, forming a semi-enclosed protective space, completing the preparation before processing.

[0040] When the cutting tool generates metal chips during operation, the left and right side plates prevent the metal chips from splashing to the left and right, the front door plate intercepts the metal chips splashing in front, the cover plate intercepts the metal chips splashing upwards, the extension plate expands the protection range, the inner liner compensates for gaps through elasticity and absorbs vibration, ensuring that the extension plate fits snugly with the side plates, and the air pipe blows the metal chips scattered on the tool holder base toward the receiving groove through airflow. The receiving groove collects the metal chips in a concentrated manner, reducing the random splashing or accumulation of metal chips.

[0041] After processing, rotate the latch to separate the insertion slot from the lock seat, unlock the front door panel and rotate it around the hinge to open it, allowing for workpiece loading and unloading, tool adjustment, and removal of the receiving slot to empty iron filings. After the operation is completed, put the receiving slot back, close the front door panel and rotate the latch in the opposite direction to complete the locking, close the cover, and restore the protective state.

[0042] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
