Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of machine tool auxiliary equipment, specifically relating to a waste collection device for a machine tool and a machine tool. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of iron parts, cutting waste accounts for approximately 50% of the materials used, making waste collection a critical aspect of production. Currently, the workshop faces the following problems: firstly, waste is scattered around the machine tools, and stamping oil splashes onto the floor, causing pollution and requiring frequent manual cleaning; secondly, most of the cutting waste from stamping parts is unloaded, and much of it fails to fall accurately into the waste collection bins, resulting in insufficient bin capacity, waste accumulation, frequent cleaning, and increased non-productive time costs. Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve the waste collection device, developing a simple and stable collection tool to improve the workshop environment and increase production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems in the prior art, this application proposes a waste collection device and a machine for a machine tool, which enables precise and directional collection of waste, reduces the frequency of cleaning waste around the machine tool, reduces non-productive time loss, improves production efficiency, and improves the workshop environment.

[0004] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] According to a first aspect of this application, a waste collection device for a machine is provided, comprising a housing, the housing comprising a collection section, a guide section and a discharge section connected in sequence, the interior of the housing being a flat and continuous flow cavity, the cavity width of the guide section and the discharge section gradually narrowing along the discharge direction, the connection between the guide section and the discharge section being integrally connected by a non-coplanar turning structure, and at least one discharge hole being formed on the outer surface of the discharge section.

[0006] The shell adopts a seamless welded integrated structure with the collection section, guide section, and discharge section connected in sequence. Combined with an internal flat, continuous flow cavity, it can accurately receive material falling from the machine, allowing waste to flow smoothly along the cavity. This effectively avoids the jamming and accumulation problems caused by mismatched cavity shapes in traditional devices, ensuring a continuously unobstructed material flow channel. The width of the guide section and discharge section gradually narrows along the material falling direction, forming a guiding flow field and accelerating the waste flow rate. Simultaneously, the narrowing structure reduces the volume of the end cavity, minimizing waste residue. The non-coplanar turning structure at the connection point is integrated, strengthening the overall structural strength of the shell, avoiding the risk of damage caused by stress concentration at the turning point, and guiding the waste to smoothly change direction through the non-coplanar design, eliminating the potential for material accumulation in dead corners.

[0007] Preferably, a clearance groove is provided on one of the narrow sides of the upper opening of the housing. This ensures that the upper opening can quickly and accurately align with the material discharge chute of the machine, while not affecting the overall feeding area of ​​the opening, ensuring smooth discharge of waste material, and improving the adaptability and flexibility of the device and the machine.

[0008] Preferably, the collecting section includes a constant-width extension section and a contraction transition section. The constant-width extension section is equal in width to the upper opening of the shell, and the width of the contraction transition section gradually narrows from the end of the constant-width extension section along the material discharge direction and connects with the guide section. The constant-width extension section of the collecting section is equal in width to the upper opening, ensuring stable reception of waste material upon initial entry and preventing edge spillage. The contraction transition section gradually narrows along the material discharge direction, allowing waste material to smoothly transition from a wide area to the guide section, eliminating accumulation and jamming caused by sudden narrowing, reducing residue. Simultaneously, the segmented structure enhances the structural stability of the connection between the collecting section and the guide section, improving overall flow efficiency.

[0009] Preferably, a removable sealing ring is provided on the discharge port, the discharge port is connected to the discharge pipe, and two discharge holes are opened on the outer surface of the discharge part. This effectively prevents waste leakage. The discharge pipe connection design, combined with the sealing structure, enables the directional discharge of waste, avoiding scattering and pollution. At the same time, the removable sealing ring facilitates later maintenance and replacement.

[0010] Preferably, the discharge port is provided with a sliding cover for opening and closing the discharge port channel. When not in use, it remains closed to prevent waste leakage; when in use, it remains open to allow the use of the receiving pipe for material collection, adapting to different collection needs.

[0011] Preferably, the non-coplanar transition structure creates a 160° angle between the guide section and the discharge section. This allows the guide section and discharge section to form a smooth transition channel, avoiding waste impact and accumulation caused by sharp angle transitions or right-angle dead corner accumulation, ensuring smooth waste flow along the channel. Simultaneously, this 160° angle design also considers structural stability, reduces stress concentration at the transition point, strengthens the integrity of the shell, maintains the waste flow rate, reduces residue, and further optimizes collection efficiency.

[0012] Preferably, the connection between the collecting part and the guiding part is locked by welding fasteners. This ensures precise alignment between the two, avoids material jamming caused by misalignment during assembly, resists the impact of material flow, and prevents loosening, cracking, and leakage at the connection.

[0013] Preferably, the width of the upper opening of the housing is 2.5 times the width of the lower opening of the housing, and the width of the upper opening of the housing is 8.5 times the height of the flow cavity. This increases the upper material receiving area, preventing material overflow from the machine, and guides waste material to quickly converge towards the discharge end through a reasonable shrinkage ratio. It also enhances the flatness of the cavity, adapting to the smooth and flat flow of flat waste material, reducing vertical space occupation, balancing structural stability and spatial adaptability, and improving the practical value of the device.

[0014] Preferably, a limiting block is provided on the collecting section, and the limiting block is located at the upper opening edge of the shell and the junction of the collecting section and the guiding section. This can help the shell and the machine's discharge chute to be accurately aligned, and strengthen the connection strength at the junction of the collecting section and the guiding section.

[0015] According to a second aspect of this application, a machine tool is proposed, including the waste collection device as described above. On the one hand, the smooth flow channel design of the waste collection device enables real-time, unobstructed waste collection, preventing machine operation interruptions due to waste accumulation and ensuring continuous production. On the other hand, the leak-proof, precise installation, and flexible adaptability of the collection device reduce waste pollution around the machine tool, lowering manual cleaning and maintenance costs. Simultaneously, it adapts to the long-term, high-frequency operation requirements of the machine tool, significantly improving the overall production efficiency and reliability of the machine tool.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial results of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] (1) The device adopts an integrated shell design. The internal flat continuous flow cavity is precisely adapted to the flat waste shape of the machine. Combined with the segmented structure of the equal-width extension section and the shrinkage transition section of the collection section, as well as the non-coplanar turning of the guide section and the discharge section, it not only ensures that the waste flows without dead corners, but also avoids deformation and leakage during long-term use. The overall structure is stable and durable.

[0018] (2) Waste collection efficiency is significantly improved, which can quickly guide waste to converge, reduce residue, achieve efficient and targeted collection, and avoid the problems of jamming and scattering of traditional devices.

[0019] (3) The upper opening clearance groove avoids interference with the machine tool structure, and the edge limit block ensures precise docking with the material drop chute, adapting to different machine tool layouts; the design of detachable sealing rings, sliding covers and other features facilitates maintenance, meets the needs of diverse production scenarios, and reduces installation and subsequent operation and maintenance costs.

[0020] (4) After the machine is integrated with this device, it can realize the real-time and uninterrupted collection of waste materials, avoid the machine from stopping due to waste accumulation, and ensure the continuity of production; at the same time, it reduces the surrounding pollution, reduces the cost of manual cleaning, and significantly improves the production efficiency and operational reliability of the machine.
