Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of gantry milling machine technology, specifically a guide rail protection device for a gantry milling machine. Background Technology

[0002] As a large-scale precision machining equipment, the guide rail of a gantry milling machine is a core component ensuring machining accuracy. Long-term exposure to the machining environment makes it susceptible to corrosion from contaminants such as chips, coolant, and dust. It also faces risks such as collisions and wear, leading to decreased guide rail accuracy, shortened lifespan, and increased equipment maintenance costs. Traditional guide rail protection devices, such as telescopic steel plate protective covers and bellows-type protective covers, suffer from poor sealing, high operating resistance, easy wear, and frequent maintenance. Therefore, developing a gantry milling machine guide rail protection device with high sealing performance, low resistance, wear resistance, and intelligent monitoring functions is of great significance for improving the stability of gantry milling machine machining accuracy, extending equipment lifespan, and reducing enterprise production costs.

[0003] Meanwhile, a gantry milling machine guide rail protection device with announcement number CN213702685U is disclosed, including a crossbeam, a base and a baffle. A spindle is sleeved inside the spindle box. A waste material transport trough is opened on the top of the base. Slides are fixedly installed at both ends of the top of the base. A worktable is movably installed on the top of the slide. A workpiece positioning device is fixedly installed on the top of the worktable. A waste material cleaning plate is fixedly installed on the bottom of the worktable. A threaded transport shaft is sleeved on the bottom of the worktable.

[0004] When a large amount of iron filings is generated during machining, the collection trough of the aforementioned gantry milling machine guideway protection device fills up quickly. If not cleaned in time, the iron filings may overflow from the edge of the collection box, contaminating the front area of ​​the guideway. Furthermore, if the iron filings accumulate too thickly after being attracted by the magnetic plate, it may affect the subsequent attraction effect. Manually separating the magnetic plate from the iron filings can easily cause hand cuts, indicating that operational safety needs improvement.

A magnetic suction plate 7 is fixedly provided inside the collection groove 8. Through the collection box 2, the debris scraped off by the inclined block 20 can be collected and cleaned, preventing the debris from scattering around the machine tool and keeping the working environment clean.

[0030] A guide rail 14 is fixedly provided on the upper end face of the base plate 1, and a limiting post 15 is fixedly provided inside the guide rail 14. The limiting post 15 can ensure the accuracy and stability of its movement, so that components such as the telescopic protective cover can accurately follow the slider 17 and improve the working efficiency of the protective device.

[0031] A connecting block 13 is fixedly provided on the upper end face of the limiting block 18, and a slider 17 is fixedly provided on the right end face of the connecting block 13. The slider 17 and the limiting post 15 are connected through the limiting block 18. The sliding of the limiting block 18 in the limiting slide rail 16 can drive the slider 17 to slide on the limiting post 15.

[0032] The front end face of the connecting block 13 is fixedly provided with a telescopic protective cover 11, and the front end face of the telescopic protective cover 11 is fixedly provided with a connecting plate 6. The telescopic protective cover 11 can extend and retract as the connecting block 13 moves, thus protecting the guide rail 14.

[0033] The rear end face of the connecting block 13 is fixedly provided with a telescopic protective cover 2 12, and the telescopic protective cover 2 12 is made of high-strength polycarbonate. Through the telescopic protective cover 2 12, it has the advantages of high strength, impact resistance and transparency.

[0034] A support column 10 is fixedly provided on the upper end face of the slider 17, and a crossbeam 9 is fixedly provided on the left end face of the support column 10. Through the support column 10 and the crossbeam 9, the support column 10 provides support for the crossbeam 9. The crossbeam 9 can connect multiple components, making the whole device a whole and improving the stability of the device during operation.

[0035] The working principle and process of a guide rail protection device for a gantry milling machine: Before the gantry milling machine is started, the guide rail 14 protective device is already in place. The base plate 1 serves as the foundation of the entire device, and its internal limiting slide rail 16 provides guidance for subsequent cleaning and protective actions. The guide rail 14 is fixed to the upper end face of the base plate 1, and the limiting post 15 is firmly set inside the guide rail 14, providing limitation and support for the movement of the slider 17. The fixing frame 3 is installed on the front end face of the base plate 1, and the fixing block 5 is firmly fixed in the fixing groove 4. The collection box 2 is connected to the fixing frame 3 through the fixing block 5, and the magnetic suction plate 7 is also installed in the collection groove 8. When the gantry milling machine starts running, the slider 17... 7 moves on the limiting post 15. Since the slider 17 is connected to the connecting block 13, the connecting block 13 will move synchronously with the slider 17. The limiting block 18 at the lower end of the connecting block 13 slides in the limiting slide rail 16. The connecting rod 19 at the front end of the limiting block 18 drives the cleaning inclined block 20 to move. During the movement, the cleaning inclined block 20 will push the debris, iron filings, etc. on the guide rail 14 towards the collection box 2. In this process, the telescopic protective cover one 11 and the telescopic protective cover two 12 play an important protective role. The telescopic protective cover one 11 extends and retracts with the movement of the connecting block 13, and its front end face The connecting plate 6 further enhances the protective effect, preventing debris from splashing onto the guide rail 14. The telescopic protective cover 12 is made of high-strength polycarbonate material, which can effectively resist external impacts and wear, protecting the rear end of the guide rail 14. Debris pushed by the cleaning wedge 20 will enter the collection groove 8 of the collection box 2. The magnetic plate 7 in the collection groove 8 will attract magnetic debris such as iron filings, achieving effective collection and classification of debris, facilitating subsequent cleaning and processing. When the gantry milling machine stops running, the slider 17 stops moving, and the cleaning wedge 20 also stops working. At this time, the collection box 2 can be cleaned periodically. The collection box 2 is cleaned to remove debris from the collection groove 8. At the same time, the adsorption effect of the magnetic suction plate 7 is checked. If the adsorption capacity of the magnetic suction plate 7 decreases, it can be replaced or cleaned. In addition, the status of the telescopic protective cover 11 and the telescopic protective cover 22 can be checked to ensure that their protective performance is good. This guide rail 14 protection device of the gantry milling machine achieves all-round protection of the guide rail 14 through the movement of the cleaning inclined block 20, the protection of the telescopic protective cover, and the debris collection function of the collection box 2, which effectively extends the service life of the guide rail 14 and improves the machining accuracy and stability of the gantry milling machine.
