Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vertical milling machine technology, and in particular to a chip recovery device for cleaning vertical milling machines. Background Technology

[0002] A vertical milling machine is a general-purpose metal cutting machine tool with a vertically arranged spindle. During the cutting process of a workpiece, a large number of chips are generated. Therefore, existing vertical milling machines are usually equipped with chip recovery devices. Through the cooperation of a spiral chip conveyor and a scraper chip conveyor, the chips on the vertical milling machine are recovered to a designated location.

[0003] However, vertical milling machines often spray coolant onto the cutting tool during cutting, causing the coolant to come into contact with the chips. This can easily lead to the accumulated chips adhering together in large chunks and falling into the spiral chip conveyor, which can cause jamming and thus affect the chip recovery efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a chip recovery device for cleaning vertical milling machines to address the problem that contact between coolant and chips can easily cause the accumulated chips to adhere into large chunks and fall into the spiral chip conveyor, which can easily lead to jamming in the spiral chip conveyor.

[0005] The system includes a scraper-type chip conveyor and a spiral chip conveyor. A processing frame is fixedly connected to the surface of the spiral chip conveyor. A dispersing mechanism includes a crushing shaft rotatably connected to the inner wall of the processing frame. A smooth plate is engaged with the inner wall of the processing frame, and a dispersing frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the smooth plate. A motor is fixedly connected to one end of the crushing shaft, and a separator is hinged to the inner wall of the processing frame. The smooth plate guides the chips entering the processing frame to the crushing shaft. The motor, crushing shaft, and dispersing frame work together to disperse agglomerated chips, preventing them from falling into the spiral chip conveyor and thus avoiding jamming. The separator allows for orderly discharge of chips that fall into the spiral chip conveyor, preventing excessive chip accumulation and ensuring efficient chip recovery.

[0006] In one embodiment, both ends of the partition are fixedly connected to a driven frame, and the surface of the driven frame is U-shaped.

[0007] In one embodiment, cams are fixedly connected to both ends of the crushing shaft, and one end of the crushing shaft passes through and extends out of the inner wall of the cam.

[0008] In one embodiment, two coil springs are fixedly connected to the surface of the separator, with the other end of each coil spring fixedly connected to one side of the processing frame. Through the cooperation of the cam, coil springs, and driven frame, the separator is oscillating back and forth, causing the chips attached to the separator to fall off, thus preventing blockage and ensuring that the separator can discharge chips in an orderly manner.

[0009] In one embodiment, dustproof frames are fixedly connected to both sides of the processing frame. The cam, driven frame, and coil spring are all located inside the dustproof frames, and the motor surface is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one of the dustproof frames. The dustproof frames are used to protect the cam, driven frame, coil spring, and motor, preventing chips from adhering to them.

[0010] In one embodiment, a friction frame is slidably connected to the upper end of the inner wall of the processing frame, and the surface of the friction frame is engaged with the inner wall of the smooth plate.

[0011] In one embodiment, a bolt is threaded onto the upper end of the inner wall of the processing frame, and the surface of the bolt is threaded onto the inner wall of the friction frame. The bolt and the friction frame work together to lock the smooth plate in the processing frame, facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the smooth plate and, consequently, the cleaning of the smooth plate and the dispersing frame.

[0012] In one embodiment, the bottom of the smooth plate forms an angle with the horizontal plane. Beneficial effects

[0013] 1. A smooth plate guides the chips entering the processing frame to the crushing shaft. The motor, crushing shaft, and dispersing frame work together to break up clumps of chips, preventing them from falling into the spiral chip conveyor and thus avoiding jamming. A separator is used to orderly discharge the chips that fall into the spiral chip conveyor, preventing excessive chips from falling into the spiral chip conveyor and ensuring the chip recycling effect. 2. By cooperating with the cam, coil spring and driven frame, the separator can swing back and forth, thereby causing the chips attached to the separator to fall off, thus avoiding blockage of the separator and ensuring that the separator can discharge chips in an orderly manner.

[0017] 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, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0018] The following is combined Figures 1-5 This invention describes a chip recovery device for cleaning vertical milling machines.

[0019] In one embodiment, a chip recovery device for cleaning a vertical milling machine includes: a scraper-type chip conveyor 100 and a spiral chip conveyor 200, with a processing frame 300 fixedly connected to the surface of the spiral chip conveyor 200; a dispersing mechanism 400, which includes a crushing shaft 401 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the processing frame 300, a smooth plate 404 snapped onto the inner wall of the processing frame 300, a dispersing frame 403 fixedly connected to the bottom of the smooth plate 404, a motor 402 fixedly connected to one end of the crushing shaft 401, and a partition frame 405 hinged to the inner wall of the processing frame 300.

[0020] It should be noted that the spiral chip conveyor 200 can be installed below the chip discharge in the vertical milling machine by screws or other installation methods, and the scraper chip conveyor 100 can be installed in the vertical milling machine and located below the outlet of the spiral chip conveyor 200.

[0021] The spiral chip conveyor 200 typically consists of a spiral body, a drive unit, and a housing. The model of the spiral chip conveyor 200 can be Okuma MILLAC561VII.

[0022] The scraper-type chip conveyor 100 is typically composed of a scraper chain assembly, a drive unit, a housing, a guide device, and a tensioning device. The model of the scraper-type chip conveyor 100 can be Okuma Millac 468vⅡ.

[0023] Vertical milling machines typically consist of a bed, spindle, worktable, feed mechanism, control device, cooling device, and cleaning device. The VM650 model is a suitable choice for vertical milling machines, as it is a relatively mature technology. The specific model can be selected based on actual needs.

[0024] The workpiece is fixed to the worktable using a fixture. The control device is operated to automatically start the spindle, causing the milling cutter to rotate. The worktable is then moved by the control device, gradually bringing the workpiece closer to the milling cutter to begin cutting. During cutting, cutting parameters, such as feed rate and depth of cut, must be adjusted as needed to ensure machining quality and efficiency. Once the workpiece is finished, the spindle rotation is stopped, and the worktable is returned to its initial position. The fixture is then released, and the workpiece is removed.

[0025] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to recycle the chips generated during cutting by the vertical milling machine, the cleaning device inside the vertical milling machine guides the chips generated during cutting to the processing frame 300. The motor 402 is manually turned on, and the output shaft of the motor 402 rotates, driving the crushing shaft 401 to rotate. The rotating crushing shaft 401 and the dispersing frame 403 cooperate to break up the clumps of chips. The broken chips fall into the separator frame 405, which is used to orderly discharge the chips into the spiral chip conveyor 200.

[0026] Manually activate the drive units on the spiral chip conveyor 200 and the scraper chip conveyor 100 to rotate the spiral body and convey the chips into the scraper chip conveyor 100. The scraper chain starts to move under the drive of the drive unit. As the chain moves, the scraper pushes the chips forward along the bottom of the housing until they are conveyed to the discharge port of the chip conveyor, so that the chips reach the recycling point for unloading.

[0027] like Figure 3-5As shown, both ends of the separator 405 are fixedly connected to driven frames 406. The surface of the driven frames 406 is U-shaped. Both ends of the crushing shaft 401 are fixedly connected to cams 407. One end of the crushing shaft 401 passes through and extends out of the inner wall of the cam 407. Two coil springs 408 are fixedly connected to the surface of the separator 405. The other end of the coil springs 408 is fixedly connected to one side of the processing frame 300. Dustproof frames 409 are fixedly connected to both sides of the processing frame 300. The cams 407, driven frames 406 and coil springs 408 are all located inside the dustproof frames 409. The surface of the motor 402 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one of the dustproof frames 409.

[0028] In this embodiment, the rotation of the crushing shaft 401 drives the cam 407 to rotate. When the highest point of the rotating cam 407 abuts against one side of the driven frame 406, the driven frame 406 rotates at an angle, which in turn causes the separator frame 405 to rotate at an angle and squeeze the coil spring 408. When the highest point of the cam 407 abuts against the other side of the driven frame 406, it cooperates with the coil spring 408 to make the driven frame 406 and the separator frame 405 swing in opposite directions, which in turn causes the driven frame 406 and the separator frame 405 to swing back and forth, so that the chips on the separator frame 405 fall into the spiral chip conveyor 200 in an orderly manner.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, a friction frame 410 is slidably connected to the upper end of the inner wall of the processing frame 300. The surface of the friction frame 410 is snapped into the inner wall of the smooth plate 404. A bolt 411 is threadedly connected to the upper end of the inner wall of the processing frame 300. The surface of the bolt 411 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the friction frame 410. The bottom of the smooth plate 404 forms an angle with the horizontal plane.

[0030] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to clean the smooth plate 404 and the dispersing frame 403, the rotating bolt 411 is moved away from the friction frame 410, the friction frame 410 is pulled to move laterally away from the smooth plate 404, and the smooth plate 404 is pulled upward, so that the smooth plate 404 and the dispersing frame 403 are disengaged from the processing frame 300, and the smooth plate 404 and the dispersing frame 403 can be cleaned. After cleaning, the smooth plate 404 is locked in the processing frame 300, and the friction frame 410 is pushed to move laterally and locked in the smooth plate 404. The rotating bolt 411 is threadedly installed in the processing frame 300 and the friction frame 410.

[0031] Working principle: The output shaft of motor 402 rotates, driving the crushing shaft 401 to rotate. The rotating crushing shaft 401 and the dispersing frame 403 work together to break up the agglomerated chips. The broken chips fall into the separator frame 405. The rotation of the crushing shaft 401 drives the cam 407 to rotate. The rotating cam 407 and the coil spring 408 work together to make the driven frame 406 and the separator frame 405 swing back and forth, so that the chips on the separator frame 405 fall into the spiral chip conveyor 200 in an orderly manner.

[0032] It should be noted that the scraper chip conveyor 100, spiral chip conveyor 200, processing frame 300, crushing shaft 401, motor 402, dispersing frame 403, and smoothing plate 404 mentioned above are all devices with relatively mature existing technology. The specific model can be selected according to actual needs. At the same time, the scraper chip conveyor 100, spiral chip conveyor 200, and motor 402 can be powered by built-in power supply or by mains power. The specific power supply method is selected according to the situation and will not be elaborated here.

[0033] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
