Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CNC machine tool equipment technology, and specifically to a safety protection structure for CNC machine tool operation. Background Technology

[0002] When operators move, clean the control panel, or adjust parameters of a CNC machine tool, they may accidentally touch the program start button, causing the CNC machine tool to start suddenly, resulting in tool damage, workpiece scrapping, or even personal injury or death. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the technical problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides a safety protection structure for CNC machine tool operation. It adopts a dual-button start program, which requires the operator to press both buttons simultaneously to trigger the program. This effectively prevents the operator from accidentally starting the program due to hand accidents or accidental button touches while cleaning the equipment.

[0004] The technical solution includes an operation box body, which is rotatably connected to a CNC machine tool via screws. An operation box panel is provided on the front of the operation box body. The operation box panel contains a program start button for program initiation and a program stop button for program pause. An auxiliary button is also provided on the operation box panel. The auxiliary button and the program start button are connected in series in the power circuit of the CNC machine tool. When both the auxiliary button and the program start button are activated simultaneously, the power circuit of the CNC machine tool is connected, and the CNC machine tool starts. Conversely, when neither is activated, the power circuit is disconnected, and the CNC machine tool does not start. The auxiliary button and the program start button are spaced apart.

[0005] Furthermore, the operation panel includes a lower operation panel and an upper operation panel. The lower operation panel is located below the upper operation panel and the two are spaced apart. The program start button and the program stop button are positioned opposite each other on the upper left side of the lower operation panel. The auxiliary button is located between the lower operation panel and the upper operation panel and is close to the right side of the lower operation panel.

[0006] Furthermore, when the CNC machine tool is started, the auxiliary button and the program start button need to be operated with both hands.

[0007] Furthermore, a baffle plate is slidably installed inside the control panel. When the baffle plate slides above the auxiliary button, it blocks the auxiliary button; otherwise, it disengages from the auxiliary button.

[0008] Furthermore, the sliding direction of the barrier plate is vertical. Under its own weight, the barrier plate is positioned above the auxiliary button, blocking the auxiliary button, and detaches from the auxiliary button under the action of external force.

[0009] Furthermore, the barrier plate is provided with protrusions that facilitate hand operation.

[0010] Beneficial effects: 1. In this utility model, the auxiliary button effectively prevents the machine tool program from running suddenly due to accidental touch by the operator, thus improving the operation safety of the CNC machine tool. Specifically, when the operator moves, cleans the control panel, or adjusts parameters, and accidentally touches the program start button, the CNC machine tool will not start the program processing. Instead, the CNC machine tool will only start processing when the program start button and the auxiliary button are pressed at the same time.

[0011] 2. In this utility model, by setting the installation positions of the lower control panel, the upper control panel, the auxiliary buttons, and the program start button, sufficient spacing can be ensured between the auxiliary buttons and the program start button, thereby reducing the probability of accidental touch of both buttons at the same time. Combined with the setting that the auxiliary buttons and the program start button need to be operated with both hands when starting the CNC machine tool, the probability of accidental touch of both buttons at the same time can be further reduced, and the operational safety of the CNC machine tool can be further improved.

[0012] 3. In this utility model, the sliding installation of the barrier plate can protect the auxiliary button when not in operation, prevent accidental touches, ensure operational safety, and protect the auxiliary button. By setting the sliding direction to be vertical, the barrier plate can automatically protect the auxiliary button by its own weight. That is, when there is no external force, the barrier plate will always keep the auxiliary button covered, further ensuring operational safety.

[0013] 4. In this utility model, the protrusions facilitate the sliding control of the barrier plate by hand. Attached Figure Description

Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0023] This utility model provides a safety protection structure for CNC machine tool operation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the system includes an operation box body 1, which is rotatably connected to the CNC machine tool via screws. Specifically, the top of the operation box body 1 is provided with multiple screw holes, which are used to fix it to the rotating structure of the CNC machine tool, allowing it to rotate freely relative to the CNC machine tool to meet different angle operation requirements. To facilitate the rotation of the operation box body 1, a handle 7 can be provided on the middle left side of the operation box body 1. An operation box panel is provided on the front of the operation box body 1. The operation box panel is provided with a program start button 2 for program initiation and a program stop button 3 for program pause. The operation box panel is also provided with an auxiliary button 4. The auxiliary button 4 and the program start button 2 are connected in series to the power circuit of the CNC machine tool. When the auxiliary button 4 and the program start button 2 are activated simultaneously, the power circuit of the CNC machine tool is connected and the CNC machine tool starts; otherwise, the power circuit is disconnected and the CNC machine tool does not start. The auxiliary button 4 and the program start button 2 are spaced apart.

[0024] In this embodiment, the auxiliary button 4 effectively prevents the machine tool program from running suddenly due to accidental touch by the operator, thus improving the operational safety of the CNC machine tool. Specifically, when the operator moves, cleans the control panel, or adjusts parameters, and accidentally touches the program start button 2, the CNC machine tool will not start the program processing. Instead, the CNC machine tool will only start processing when the program start button 2 and the auxiliary button 4 are pressed simultaneously.

[0025] In this utility model, preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, the control panel includes a lower control panel 5 and an upper control panel 6. The lower control panel 5 is located below the upper control panel 6 and the two are spaced apart. The program start button 2 and the program stop button 3 are positioned opposite each other on the upper left side of the lower control panel 5. The auxiliary button 4 is located between the lower control panel 5 and the upper control panel 6, and is close to the right side of the lower control panel 5. When the CNC machine tool is started, the auxiliary button 4 and the program start button 2 need to be operated with both hands.

[0026] In this embodiment, by setting the installation positions of the lower control panel 5, the upper control panel 6, the auxiliary button 4, and the program start button 2, sufficient spacing can be ensured between the auxiliary button 4 and the program start button 2, thereby reducing the probability of accidental activation of both buttons simultaneously. Combined with the requirement that the auxiliary button 4 and the program start button 2 need to be operated with both hands when starting the CNC machine tool, the probability of accidental activation of both buttons simultaneously can be further reduced, thereby further improving the operational safety of the CNC machine tool.

[0027] In this utility model, preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, a baffle plate is also slidably installed inside the control panel. When the baffle plate slides above the auxiliary button 4, it blocks the auxiliary button 4; otherwise, it detaches from the auxiliary button 4, exposing the auxiliary button 4. The sliding direction of the baffle plate is vertical. Under its own weight, the baffle plate is located above the auxiliary button 4, blocking the auxiliary button 4. Under the action of external force, it slides upward and detaches from the auxiliary button 4.

[0028] In this embodiment, by setting up a sliding barrier, the auxiliary button 4 can be shielded and protected when not in operation, preventing accidental touches and ensuring operational safety. It also protects the auxiliary button 4. By setting the sliding direction to be vertical, the barrier can automatically shield the auxiliary button 4 using its own weight. That is, when there is no external force, the barrier will always shield the auxiliary button 4, further ensuring operational safety.

[0029] In this utility model, preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, the barrier plate is provided with protrusions for easy hand operation.

[0030] In this embodiment, the protrusions facilitate the sliding control of the barrier plate by hand.

[0031] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0032] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
