Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of wire EDM processing equipment, and more specifically, to a wire EDM waste cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Wire EDM is a precision machining method widely used in mold manufacturing, metal processing and other fields. Its core principle is to generate an electrical discharge between a high-speed moving electrode wire and the workpiece, thereby achieving the cutting and machining of the workpiece.

[0003] In actual machining processes, it is often necessary to cut multiple parts of the same workpiece sequentially. After the wire cutting equipment completes the machining of a certain part, the electrode wire needs to be retracted and then re-threaded to the next machining part. During the electrode wire retraction process, the waste material generated during cutting may be carried onto the upper surface of the workpiece. If the waste material happens to fall into the wire threading hole of the next machining part, it will block the hole, preventing smooth wire threading and affecting the subsequent machining process. In addition, when cutting the same hole multiple times, the waste material generated after one cut (such as the first cut) may adhere to the hole, hindering the electrode wire from cutting again, affecting machining accuracy and continuity.

[0004] Currently, the above-mentioned problems are generally addressed by operators observing the processing status in real time and manually cleaning up any accumulated waste. This method not only increases the labor intensity of workers but also poses certain safety hazards and reduces overall processing efficiency. Therefore, how to achieve automatic waste cleaning to ensure processing continuity and operational safety has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a wire EDM waste cleaning device, which aims to improve the current situation where most waste cleaning is done manually, requiring workers to constantly observe the processing area, which is very inconvenient. In addition, manual waste cleaning poses safety hazards and has low work efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a wire EDM waste cleaning device, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:

[0007] A wire EDM waste removal device includes an air jet mechanism, which is installed on the head of the wire EDM machine. An air pipe is connected to the head of the wire EDM machine, and the air pipe is connected to the air jet mechanism.

[0008] In one embodiment, the jetting mechanism includes a jetting section disposed within a mounting base, the mounting base communicating with the jetting section, and a connecting seat disposed above the mounting base. The connecting seat is mounted on the head of the wire cutting machine and communicates with the air pipe on the head and the mounting base, respectively.

[0009] In one embodiment, the mounting base and the connecting base are an integral structure.

[0010] In one embodiment, the jet unit is rotatably mounted on the mounting base. By rotating the jet unit, the direction of the gas ejected from the jet unit can be adjusted so that the ejected gas is blown toward the waste generated during processing on the wire cutting worktable.

[0011] In one embodiment, the jet section includes an adjusting head that is embedded in a mounting base and is rotatable within the mounting base. An jet pipe is provided on the outside of the adjusting head, and the adjusting head and the jet pipe are internally connected.

[0012] In one embodiment, the adjusting head is spherical.

[0013] In one embodiment, there is a rotational damping force between the adjusting head and the mounting base to prevent the position of the adjusting head from changing due to the reaction force after the gas is ejected.

[0014] In one embodiment, the regulating head and the jet pipe are an integral structure.

[0015] In one embodiment, the jet mechanism is a gooseneck tube, which can be bent arbitrarily and oriented in a specific direction.

[0016] In one embodiment, the gooseneck tube may be made of plastic or metal.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are:

[0018] A jetting mechanism is installed on the head of the wire EDM machine. This mechanism is connected to an air pipe on the machine head, which supplies high-pressure gas. The high-pressure gas is then ejected from the jetting mechanism's outlet and directed towards the workpiece processing area, including the holes to be threaded or those undergoing multiple cuts. The high-pressure gas effectively removes waste material carried to the workpiece surface or adhering to the processing holes, preventing clogging of the threading holes and interference during multiple cuts at the same hole.

[0019] This structure can automatically perform air cleaning before each wire threading or during the intermittent phase of continuous cutting at the same hole position without manual intervention. This not only eliminates processing interruptions caused by waste material obstruction, but also significantly reduces the workload of operators. At the same time, automatic air cleaning replaces manual operation, eliminates safety hazards, and greatly improves the efficiency and continuity of wire EDM processing. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0029] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a wire cutting waste cleaning device, including an air jet mechanism 100, which is installed on the head of the wire cutting machine. An air pipe is connected to the head of the wire cutting machine, and the air pipe is connected to the air jet mechanism 100.

[0031] In one embodiment, the jet mechanism 100 can be a gooseneck tube (e.g., Figure 3 As shown, the gooseneck tube, named for its resemblance to a goose's neck, is a type of flexible tube that can be bent arbitrarily and oriented in a defined direction. It can be made of either plastic or metal. The gooseneck tube connects to the air pipe on the wire EDM machine head. By bending the gooseneck tube, the direction of its air outlet is adjusted so that the outlet is aligned with the workpiece processing area. This allows the high-pressure gas ejected from the gooseneck tube outlet to blow away any waste material blocking the wire threading holes or adhering to the processing holes, facilitating subsequent wire threading or multiple cuts at the same hole.

[0032] In another embodiment, the jet mechanism 100 includes a jet section 130 (such as...). Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown), the jet nozzle 130 is disposed within the mounting base 120, and a connecting seat 110 is disposed above the mounting base 120. Preferably, the mounting base 120 and the connecting seat 110 are an integral structure. An integral structure has good strength and can be integrally molded by a mold, making it convenient to produce, aesthetically pleasing, and durable. The connecting seat 110 is fixedly installed on the head of the wire cutting machine and is connected to the air pipe on the head. The connecting seat 110 is connected to the interior of the mounting base 120, and the jet nozzle 130 is connected to the mounting base 120. The high-pressure gas in the air pipe on the wire cutting machine head is sequentially... The air jet 130 is vented through the connecting seat 110 and the mounting seat 120. The gas is ejected from the outlet of the air jet 130 and blows away the waste material that is blocking the wire threading hole on the workpiece or adhering to the machining hole, so as to facilitate the subsequent wire threading or multiple cutting operations at the same hole. (It should be noted that the specific pressure value of the high-pressure gas mentioned in the text needs to be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs. As long as the gas can blow away the waste material and the reaction force of the gas cannot change the blowing direction of the air jet mechanism 100, it is acceptable.)

[0033] It should be noted that the jet nozzle 130 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 120. By rotating the jet nozzle 130, the direction of the gas ejected from the jet nozzle 130 can be adjusted so that the ejected gas can be accurately blown onto the waste generated during processing on the wire EDM worktable, causing it to leave the workpiece processing area. Specifically, the jet nozzle 130 includes an adjusting head 131, which is preferably spherical. The adjusting head 131 is embedded inside the mounting base 120 and can rotate freely within the mounting base 120. There is a rotational damping force between the adjusting head 131 and the mounting base 120. Thus, after rotating the adjusting head 131, under the action of the rotational damping force, the adjusting head 131... It can maintain the position after rotation and avoid the reaction force after the gas is ejected causing the position of the adjusting head 131 to change. An air jet pipe 132 is provided on the outside of the adjusting head 131. Preferably, the adjusting head 131 and the air jet pipe 132 are integrated structures. The integrated structure has good strength and can be integrally formed by mold, which is convenient to produce, beautiful and durable. The adjusting head 131 and the air jet pipe 132 are internally connected. High-pressure gas can enter the air jet pipe 132 from the adjusting head 131 and then be ejected from the outlet of the air jet pipe 132 to blow away the waste material that is blocking the wire threading hole on the workpiece or attached to the processing hole, so as to facilitate the subsequent wire threading or multiple cutting of the same hole.

[0034] The specific working process is as follows: the air pipe on the head of the wire cutting machine delivers high-pressure gas to the connector 110, then the connector 110 delivers it to the mounting base 120, the mounting base 120 delivers it to the adjusting head 131, the adjusting head 131 delivers the high-pressure gas to the jet pipe 132, and finally the high-pressure gas is ejected from the outlet of the jet pipe 132.

[0035] Before each wire threading operation, gas is sprayed onto the work area on the worktable to be threaded. Any waste material in this area will be blown away by the high-pressure gas, preventing obstruction of the wire threading hole and ensuring the smooth progress of the threading process. During the intervals between consecutive cuts at the same hole position, such as after the first cut and before the second, gas is sprayed onto the work area on the worktable where the hole is being processed. Any waste material adhering to the processed hole will be blown away by the high-pressure gas, preventing obstruction of the electrode wire for further cutting and effectively ensuring processing accuracy and continuity. The specific air jetting time for waste removal during wire threading and processing can be set manually, such as 5 seconds or 8 seconds.

[0036] During continuous wire threading and cutting processes, the system can be automatically set to clean up waste only during the wire threading process or only during the processing process, or it can be set to perform air cleaning during both the wire threading and processing processes. The entire device has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and has low manufacturing costs.
