Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chip removal in machining, and in particular to a chip removal device using a jet blowing mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of machining, especially during cutting operations such as drilling, milling, boring, and tapping on automated equipment like CNC machine tools and machining centers, a large amount of chips are generated. If these chips are not removed in a timely and effective manner, they will accumulate in critical areas such as the worktable, fixtures, tool magazines, and guideways, leading to a series of serious problems.

[0003] The most common chip removal solution in the industry for this situation is a high-pressure water pump flushing system. This system uses a motor-driven pump to generate a high-pressure water jet to flush the processing area and remove chips. While this method is widely used, it suffers from several inherent and difficult-to-overcome significant drawbacks: 1. High energy consumption: Driving the high-pressure water pump requires a high-power motor, which consumes a huge amount of electricity during continuous operation. It is one of the main energy-consuming units of the entire processing equipment, resulting in high long-term operating costs. 2. Limited cleaning effect and serious secondary pollution: Water rinsing easily mixes cutting fluid and oil with chips, forming a viscous paste that is more difficult to clean, especially for fine powders such as cast iron powder and aluminum alloy chips. 3. The residual oil-water mixture after rinsing needs to be treated separately, otherwise it will cause ground pollution. In addition, oil-water separation is required before chip recycling, which increases the difficulty and cost of subsequent processing. 4. Water consumption and maintenance costs: The system requires a continuous supply of cutting fluid or water, and is equipped with a complex filtration and circulation system. The system requires frequent maintenance and is subject to risks such as pipe blockage and water pump damage, resulting in high maintenance costs. 5. Applicability limitations: Not suitable for cleaning certain water-sensitive working conditions or materials (such as wood processing, certain composite material processing).

[0004] In addition, some methods involve manual blowing using ordinary air guns, but this method is inefficient, relies on manual labor, cannot be integrated into automated production cycles, and consumes a large amount of compressed air, making it uneconomical. Therefore, existing chip removal methods in the machining field need improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a blow-drying debris removal device, which features low energy consumption, good cleaning effect, economical operation, and easy integration into automation.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A blow-off debris removal device, characterized by comprising an air chamber and an electromagnetic pulse valve; Equipment mounting components are provided on the side wall of the air chamber, and an air inlet and an air outlet are provided on the top wall of the air chamber. The electromagnetic pulse valve is equipped with a connecting component at its air inlet, and the electromagnetic pulse valve is installed at its air outlet via the connecting component.

[0007] Preferably, the air chamber has a rectangular parallelepiped structure, including a square cylinder and cover plates welded to both ends of the square cylinder.

[0008] Preferably, the device mounting component is a connecting angle plate, one side of which is fixed to the air chamber, and the other side has an oblong connecting hole.

[0009] Preferably, the electromagnetic pulse valve has at least two components.

[0010] Preferably, a safety valve port is provided on the top wall of the air chamber, and a pressure regulating valve is connected to the safety valve port.

[0011] Preferably, the connecting assembly includes a connecting flange, connecting threads, and a lock nut; The upper section of the connecting wire is connected to the air inlet of the electromagnetic pulse valve; The lower surface of the connecting flange has a sealing gasket, and the connecting flange is fitted onto the lower section of the connecting thread and fixed by a lock nut; The connecting flange is installed on the top wall of the air chamber, and the lower section of the connecting wire inlet corresponds to the air outlet of the air chamber.

[0012] The advantages of this utility model are: 1. The driving power of electromagnetic pulse valves is usually only tens of watts, which is significantly lower than that of high-pressure water pump motors with thousands of watts, resulting in extremely significant energy savings. 2. The pulsed airflow has a powerful impact force, which can effectively remove sticky and tangled chips without producing an oil-water mixture. The chips remain dry and are easy to recycle. 3. Due to the use of instantaneous blowing, with each blowing session lasting approximately 30-80 milliseconds, rather than continuous blowing, the consumption of compressed air is greatly reduced, thus lowering operating costs; 4. The device has a compact structure and can be connected to a solenoid valve via a PLC to control the start and stop of the solenoid valve and the blowing frequency, making it suitable for use with fully automatic processing equipment; 5. The device has no complex mechanical moving parts, has a low failure rate, is easy to maintain, and is suitable for water-sensitive working conditions and processing environments of various materials.

Detailed Implementation

[0014] Combination Figures 1 to 3 The present invention provides a further description of the blow-blowing debris removal device.

[0015] A blow-off debris removal device, characterized in that it includes an air chamber 1 and an electromagnetic pulse valve 4.

[0016] Equipment mounting components 2 are provided on both the left and right side walls of the air chamber 1. An air inlet 12 and an air outlet 11 are located on the top wall of the air chamber 1. A connector is connected to the air inlet 12, which connects to a compressor. The compressor fills the air chamber 1 with compressed air and stores it. A connecting component 5 is provided on the air inlet 41 of the electromagnetic pulse valve 4. The electromagnetic pulse valve 4 is mounted on the air outlet 11 via the connecting component 5. A controller, such as a PLC, is connected to the terminals of the electromagnetic pulse valve 4 to control its opening and closing, allowing the compressed air in the air chamber 1 to be instantaneously ejected through the electromagnetic pulse valve 4.

[0017] The structure of the air chamber 1 in this embodiment is as follows: the air chamber 1 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, including a square cylinder 13 and cover plates 14 welded to both ends of the square cylinder. The rectangular parallelepiped structure can form a planar structure on the bottom and top surfaces of the air chamber 1. The bottom surface can facilitate the fitting and assembly of the air chamber 1 with the mounting surface of the processing equipment, and the top surface can facilitate the installation of the electromagnetic pulse valve 4.

[0018] The device mounting component 2 is an L-shaped connecting angle plate. One side 22 of the connecting angle plate is fixed to the cover plate of the air chamber 1 by welding, and the other side 21 extends away from the cover plate in the air chamber 1 and has an oblong connecting hole 23. The oblong connecting hole 23 can be connected with the mounting hole on the processing equipment. After the bolt is inserted, the air chamber 1 can be fixed on the processing equipment for processing. It has the characteristics of convenient assembly and disassembly.

[0019] The electromagnetic pulse valve 4 is at least two in number. The specific number of electromagnetic pulse valves 4 can be set according to actual needs. In this embodiment, two are set. The two electromagnetic pulse valves 4 can achieve alternating operation and spraying multiple workstations.

[0020] A safety valve port is also provided on the top wall of the air chamber 1, and a pressure regulating valve 3 is connected to the safety valve port to prevent the air pressure in the air chamber 1 from being too high.

[0021] The connecting assembly 5 includes a connecting flange 7, a connecting thread 51, and a locking nut 9.

[0022] The connecting thread 51 has an upper section 511, a lower section 513, and a middle truncated cone 512. The upper section 511 is threadedly connected to the air inlet 41 of the electromagnetic pulse valve 4. A sealing gasket 8 is provided on the lower surface of the connecting flange. The connecting flange is fitted onto the lower section 513 of the connecting thread 51. The connecting flange 7 is clamped and fixed to the middle truncated cone 512 by the locking nut 9, which simultaneously achieves a seal between the connecting flange 7 and the middle truncated cone 512. The connecting flange 7 is installed on the top wall of the air chamber 1 by multiple bolts and is sealed by the sealing gasket 8. At the same time, the inlet of the lower section 513 of the connecting thread 51 corresponds to the air outlet 11 of the air chamber 1, so that the compressed air in the air chamber 1 can be ejected through the electromagnetic pulse valve 4.

[0023] In practical use, this embodiment is installed on the processing equipment via the equipment mounting component 2, corresponding to the processing station that requires chip removal, and instantly blows away the waste chips generated at the processing station. During blowing, compressed air is used as the power source, and through the precise control of the electromagnetic pulse valve 4, the compressed air is ejected in the form of an instantaneous burst of pulsed airflow. This design makes full use of the compressibility of compressed air and the huge kinetic energy released instantaneously, which can efficiently blow away and remove various types of chips, especially dry, fine metal chips, to achieve an effective chip removal effect. At the same time, it also has the characteristics of low energy consumption, economical operation, and easy integration into automation.
