Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of machine tool protective covers, and more particularly to a double-sided reinforced armor-like protective cover. [Background technology]

[0002]

[0003] Many machine tools (e.g., numerically controlled machine tools or machining centers) are fitted with armor-like protective covers to internally cover the components to be protected, such as the machine tool's guide rails, screws, and motors, preventing chips and other sharp objects from entering the components and affecting their normal operation. For example, prior art publication number CN204771830U discloses an expandable armor-like protective cover for machine tools, which includes a front fixing plate, a rear fixing plate, and an expandable protective cover body. The front fixing plate and the rear fixing plate are fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the protective cover body, respectively. The protective cover body is composed of a plurality of fixing assemblies and expandable connecting members. Each fixing assembly is composed of an "L"-shaped steel plate and a frame. The "L"-shaped steel plate is attached to the upper surface of the protective cover body, and the connecting members form a bellows-like cavity on the lower surface and both side edges of the protective cover body.

[0003] However, there is only one layer of protective armor on the top surface, and the armor sheet is not very tightly packed, so it can easily be lifted or flipped up, causing waste debris to fall in. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a double-sided reinforced armor-like protective cover that has enhanced tightness, increased clamping force, no opening, and high sealing performance. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] The double-sided reinforced armor-like protective cover of the present invention includes a front mounting plate, a rear mounting plate, a bellows body, a protective assembly, and a support assembly. The bellows body is attached between the front mounting plate and the rear mounting plate and is configured to be integrally molded with multiple coating layers. The protective assembly is attached to one side and the support assembly is attached to the other side. The bellows body is attached by the front and rear mounting plates and is driven to move by the bellows body to prevent chips and waste debris from falling in. The support assembly supports the bellows body, improving the tightness of the protective assembly, strengthening the clamping force, and providing better sealing.

[0006] Preferably, the protective assembly includes a plurality of protective armor pieces attached in a uniform arrangement to one end of the accordion-like body, the protective armor pieces being arranged in an L-shape, and the two front and rear protective armor pieces being joined to each other, so that the plurality of protective armor pieces are overlappingly covered on the surface of the accordion-like body, the outer surfaces of the protective armor pieces being smooth, and the plurality of protective armor pieces are driven to deploy or recover by the accordion-like body, so as to block chips that fly off at high temperatures and high speeds and protect the relatively fragile accordion-like body, while being overlappingly covered, they expand and contract as the accordion-like body expands and contracts, ensuring smooth expansion and contraction movements, and the smooth surfaces of the protective armor pieces reducing friction during movement and preventing the generation of loud noise.

[0007] Preferably, the support assembly includes a plurality of support armors uniformly attached to the end of the bellows body away from the protective armor, the plurality of support armors are overlappingly covered on the surface of the bellows body, the length of the support armors is shorter than the length of the protective armor, when the protective armor is driven to move and expand and contract by the bellows body, the support armors are overlappingly covered and expand and contract along with the expansion and contraction of the bellows body, and since there is armor on both the upper and lower surfaces of the bellows body, a U-shape is formed between the protective armor and the support armor, which strengthens the tightness, makes the whole more solid, strengthens the clamping force, does not open, and has a high sealing performance.

[0008] Preferably, the support armor can be provided on the bellows body in a two-stage or multi-stage manner according to actual installation needs, and by providing it in a two-stage or multi-stage manner according to actual installation needs, it can ensure the support effect on the bottom of the bellows body when the device is used, and ensure tightness and sealing. [Effects of the Invention]

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the front mounting plate and the rear mounting plate are attached, and the protection assembly is driven to move by the bellows body, preventing chips and waste from falling in; the support assembly supports the bellows body, improving the tightness of the protection assembly, strengthening the clamping force, and providing better sealing. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0011] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, the present invention will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. The present invention may be embodied in many different forms and is not limited to the examples set forth herein. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these examples is to provide a more thorough and complete disclosure of the present invention.

[0012] As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the bellows-shaped body 3 is mounted between the front mounting plate 1 and the rear mounting plate 2, and is configured to be integrally formed with multiple coating layers; a plurality of protective armors 4 are uniformly arranged and mounted on one end of the bellows-shaped body 3; the protective armors 4 are arranged in an L-shape, and the front and rear protective armors 4 are joined to each other, so that the plurality of protective armors 4 overlap and cover the surface of the bellows-shaped body 3; the outer surface of the protective armors 4 is made smooth; a plurality of support armors 5 are uniformly mounted on the end of the bellows-shaped body 3 away from the protective armor 4, and overlap and cover the surface of the bellows-shaped body 3; the length of the support armors 5 is shorter than the length of the protective armors 4; the support armors 5 can be arranged on the bellows-shaped body 3 in a two-stage or multi-stage manner according to actual mounting needs; The protective armor 4 is attached by a front mounting plate 1 and a rear mounting plate 2, and the accordion-like wrinkled body 3 drives the multiple protective armors 4 to move and deploy, blocking chips that fly off at high temperatures and high speeds and protecting the relatively fragile accordion-like wrinkled body 3. On the other hand, by being covered in layers, it expands and contracts as the accordion-like wrinkled body 3 expands and contracts, ensuring smooth expansion and contraction movements. The smooth surface of the protective armor 4 reduces friction during movement and prevents loud noises from being generated. The accordion-like wrinkled body 3 allows the protective armor 4 to: When driven to move and expand and contract, the support armor 5 is covered on top of itself, expanding and contracting along with the expansion and contraction of the accordion-shaped body 3. Since there is armor on both the top and bottom of the accordion-shaped body 3, a U-shape is formed between the protective armor 4 and the support armor 5, which strengthens the tightness, makes the whole more solid, strengthens the clamping force, prevents opening, and has high sealing performance. It can be installed in two stages or multiple stages according to actual installation needs, which can ensure the supporting effect on the bottom of the accordion-shaped body 3 when the device is in use, and ensure the tightness and sealing performance.

[0013] As shown in Figures 1 to 5, the double-sided reinforced armor-like protective cover of the present invention is attached by a front mounting plate 1 and a rear mounting plate 2 when in operation. The accordion-like main body 3 drives the multiple protective armors 4 to move and deploy, blocking high-temperature, high-speed flying chips and protecting the relatively fragile accordion-like main body 3. Meanwhile, by being covered in layers, it expands and contracts as the accordion-like main body 3 expands and contracts, ensuring smooth expansion and contraction. By being covered in layers, the support armor 5 expands and contracts as the accordion-like main body 3 expands and contracts. Since there is armor on both the top and bottom of the accordion-like main body 3, a U-shape is formed between the protective armor 4 and the support armor 5, strengthening the tightness and preventing it from opening.
