[0019] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a machine tool guide rail protective cover, including a telescopic sleeve 1, a protective cover body 2, a first baffle 3, a second baffle 4, a fan 5, a connecting pipe 6, a limiting ring 7, a through hole 8, a sleeve inner cavity 9, a threaded groove 10, a connecting buckle 11, and an inner hole 12. The telescopic sleeve 1 has a limiting ring 7 at its left end and a threaded groove 10 on its right side. The telescopic sleeve 1 has a hollow sleeve inner cavity 9, and multiple through holes 8 are opened on its bottom side. The connecting buckle 11 is installed on the threaded groove 10 on the right side of the telescopic sleeve 1, and an inner hole 12 is also opened on the connecting buckle 11. The protective cover body 2 is composed of multiple inner and outer protective covers. The first baffle 3 is installed at the top of the outermost protective cover, and the first baffle 3 is positioned in the middle. The device is equipped with a fan 5, which is installed on the telescopic sleeve 1 through a connecting pipe 6. The second baffle 4 is installed on the top of the innermost protective cover. The telescopic structure composed of multiple telescopic sleeves 1 is located on the left and right sides of the first baffle 3 and the second baffle 4, respectively. The main body 2 of the protective cover includes a protective side plate 21, a protective top plate 22, a positioning frame 23, a positioning groove 24, a sponge pad 25, and a cleaning brush 26. The outer side of the protective side plate 21 on both the left and right sides is provided with two positioning frames 23 at different heights, and a positioning groove 24 is also provided on the inner side of the protective side plate 21.

[0020] As the first embodiment of this utility model: the multiple through holes 8 on the telescopic sleeve 1 are distributed to meet the length of the telescopic sleeve 1. This design allows the gas in the fan 5 to be blown evenly to the top surface of the corresponding telescopic sleeve 1 through the through holes 8, which helps to remove debris from the top surface. The inner diameter of the inner hole 12 on the connecting buckle 11 of the preceding telescopic sleeve 1 meets the size of the following telescopic sleeve 1. This design sets the connecting buckle 11 to restrict the limiting ring 7 on the telescopic sleeve 1, which helps to limit the movement and prevent the following telescopic sleeve 1 from sliding out of the sleeve cavity 9 of the preceding telescopic sleeve 1. The positioning frame on the protective side plate 21 The size of 23 is adapted to the size of the positioning groove 24, and the outermost protective cover and the innermost protective cover do not have positioning frame 23 or positioning groove 24 on their outer side and inner side. This design helps to improve the stability of each protective cover when it is contracted by connecting the positioning groove 24 on the previous protective cover with the positioning frame 23 on the next protective cover. The thickness of the sponge pad 25 inserted into the cleaning brush 26 meets the gap size between the protective top plate 22 on the front and rear protective covers. This design helps to prevent debris from getting stuck in the gap and not being cleaned by using the sponge pad 25 to fill the gap between the protective top plate 22 on the front and rear protective covers.

[0021] As a second embodiment of this utility model: when the protective cover body 2 retracts, the innermost protective cover will retract into the adjacent protective cover, while the positioning side frame 23 will slide in the positioning side groove 24 of the adjacent protective cover. At the same time, the telescopic sleeve 1 on the second baffle 4 will also retract into the telescopic sleeve 1 of the adjacent position as the protective cover retracts. The inner hole 12 of the connecting buckle 11 on the adjacent telescopic sleeve 1 will restrict the limiting ring 7 to prevent the connection between the front and rear telescopic sleeves 1 from disengaging. The fan 5 transmits the gas from the connecting pipe 6 to the sleeve cavity 9 in the telescopic sleeve 1, and then blows it out through the through hole 8 to clean the debris on the top surface of the lower protective cover body 2. The protective top plate 22 of each protective cover is filled with a sponge pad 25. The debris stuck in the gap will be cleaned out by the cleaning brush 26 on the sponge pad 25 and treated by the gas in the through hole 8.
