Abstract

Cutting fluid is pumped by an immersion type charging pump (3) via a three-way valve either to a low pressure outlet or to high pressure pump (9) for delivery to a deep hole drilling tool during cutting. This ensures that high pressure fluid can be reliably delivered to the tool without the risk of admitting air to the system. Before entering the high pressure pump, the cutting fluid passes through a cooler (5) and filter (7). During the non-cutting part of the cycle, cutting fluid can be directed through the low pressure circuit for general cooling and chip removal. ADVANTAGE - Simple method of ensuring delivery of high-pressure cutting fluid free of entrapped air.

Description

Die Erfindung befaßt sich mit einer Vorrichtung zur Verbes­ serung der Kühl- und Schmiermöglichkeiten bei Bearbeitungs­ vorgängen an Werkzeugmaschinen.The invention relates to a device for verbs improvement of cooling and lubrication options during machining operations on machine tools.

Es ist bekannt, das bei spanabhebenden Bearbeitungsvorgängen erforderliche Kühlmittel, insbesondere Wasser, den Werkzeu­ gen über eine Pumpe zuzuführen.It is known that in machining operations required coolant, especially water, the tool supply via a pump.

Insbesondere bei speziellen Bearbeitungsvorgängen, wie z. B. beim Tieflochbohren muß das Kühlmittel mit erhöhtem bzw. ho­ hem Druck zugeführt werden, um in ausreichender Menge in den eigentlichen Bearbeitungsbereich zu gelangen.Especially with special machining operations, such as. B. when drilling deep holes, the coolant must be increased or high hem pressure to be supplied in sufficient quantities in the actual processing area.

Bei dieser Kühlmittelzuführung unter Verwendung einer Hoch­ druckpumpe besteht die Gefahr, daß von der Pumpe kurzzeitig Luft angesaugt wird oder Schmutzpartikel gefördert werden, und dies kann dazu führen und führt häufig dazu, daß der je­ weilige Bearbeitungsvorgang, z. B. der Vorgang des Tiefloch­ bohrens so gestört wird, daß Ausschußteile entstehen.With this coolant supply using a high pressure pump there is a risk that from the pump briefly Air is sucked in or dirt particles are conveyed, and this can and often leads to the fact that the because processing, z. B. the process of the deep hole drilling is disturbed so that rejects arise.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, mit möglichst einfachen Mit­ teln diese in der Praxis ganz erhebliche Problematik mit Sicherheit zu beseitigen. The object of the invention is to be as simple as possible these problems, which are very considerable in practice Eliminate security.  

Dazu wird gemäß der Erfindung vorgesehen, daß die Hochdruck­ pumpe über eine vorgeschaltete weitere Pumpe, insbesondere eine Tauchpumpe geladen, d. h. mit der auf höheren Druck zu bringenden Flüssigkeit gespeist wird, wobei vorzugsweise zwischen beiden Pumpen ein Filter angebracht wird.For this purpose, it is provided according to the invention that the high pressure pump via an upstream additional pump, in particular a submersible pump is loaded, d. H. with the towards higher pressure bringing liquid is fed, preferably a filter is placed between the two pumps.

Auf diese Weise gelingt es überraschend, eine völlig luftbla­ senfreie Zuführung von unter erhöhtem Druck bzw. hohem Druck stehenden Kühl- und/oder Schmiermittel zu der jeweiligen Be­ arbeitungsstelle zu gewährleisten und auch jegliche Fremd­ körper auszuschalten, wenn eine Vorschaltung eines Filters erfolgt, was wiederum bei einer Hochdruckpumpe nur dann mög­ lich ist, wenn erfindungsgemäß die Anordnung dieses Filters zwischen der Hochdruckpumpe und einer als Ladepumpe wirken­ den weiteren Pumpe erfolgt.In this way it is surprisingly possible to create a completely air-blue Sen-free supply of under increased pressure or high pressure standing coolant and / or lubricant for the respective loading to ensure employment and any foreign body off when an upstream filter takes place, which in turn is only possible with a high pressure pump Lich, if the arrangement of this filter according to the invention act between the high pressure pump and a charge pump the further pump.

Die Drehzahl der Hochdruckpumpe kann in Abhängigkeit vom je­ weiligen Bearbeitungsvorgang bzw. vom jeweils eingesetzten Werkzeug erfolgen, so daß eine optimale Mengenregelung ge­ währleistet ist.The speed of the high pressure pump can depend on the because of the processing operation or the particular one used Tool done so that an optimal quantity control ge is guaranteed.

Das der Hochdruckpumpe vorgeschaltete Filter wird vorzugswei­ se zwischen zwei Manometern angeordnet, um über eine Diffe­ renzdrucküberwachung die Filterverschmutzung zu erfassen.The filter upstream of the high pressure pump is preferred arranged between two pressure gauges to over a diffe limit pressure monitoring to detect the filter contamination.

Ferner ist zwischen der Ladepumpe und dem Filter vorzugswei­ se ein Kühler angeordnet.It is also preferred between the charge pump and the filter a cooler is arranged.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn zwischen der Förderpumpe, die im Regelfall aus einer Tauchpumpe besteht und der Hoch­ druckpumpe bzw. dem dieser Hochdruckpumpe vorgeschalteten Kühler ein 3-Wege-Ventil angeordnet wird, da es dann auf einfache Weise möglich ist, das von der Pumpe aus dem Kühl- und/oder Schmiermittelbehälter geförderte Medium entweder der Hochdruckpumpe zuzuführen, wenn dies aufgrund des jewei­ ligen Bearbeitungsvorganges erforderlich ist, oder das geför­ derte Medium unter Niederdruck zum Kühlen, Schmieren oder zum Entfernen von Spänen zu verwenden, wie dies an sich be­ kannt ist.It is particularly advantageous if, between the feed pump, which usually consists of a submersible pump and the high pressure pump or upstream of this high pressure pump A 3-way valve is placed in the cooler since it is then on  is possible in a simple way that the pump from the cooling and / or lubricant reservoir fluid either the high pressure pump if this is due to the respective current machining process is required, or that medium under low pressure for cooling, lubrication or to use to remove chips as this per se is known.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der beigefügten Zeichnung dargestellt.An embodiment of the invention is in the accompanying Drawing shown.

Diese Zeichnung zeigt einen Kühlmittelbehälter 1 mit einem Schwimmer 2 für die Niveauregelung und den Trockenschutz. Eine Tauchpumpe 3 fördert das Medium aus dem Behälter 1 zu einem 3-Wege-Magnetventil 4.This drawing shows a coolant tank 1 with a float 2 for level control and dry protection. A submersible pump 3 conveys the medium from the container 1 to a 3-way solenoid valve 4 .

Ein Ausgang dieses 3-Wege-Magnetventils 4 ermöglicht es, das von der Tauchpumpe 3 geförderte Medium direkt zum Kühlen, Schmieren oder zum Entfernen von Spänen unter Niederdruck zu verwenden.An outlet of this 3-way solenoid valve 4 enables the medium conveyed by the submersible pump 3 to be used directly for cooling, lubricating or for removing chips under low pressure.

Der andere Ausgang des 3-Wege-Magnetventils 4 führt über ei­ nen Kühler 5, ein erstes Manometer 6, ein Filter 7 und ein zweites Manometer 8 zu einer Hochdruckpumpe 9, die über ei­ nen Motor 10 angetrieben ist.The other output of the 3-way solenoid valve 4 leads via a cooler 5 , a first pressure gauge 6 , a filter 7 and a second pressure gauge 8 to a high pressure pump 9 which is driven by a motor 10 .

Mittels der Manometer 6, 8 kann eine Differenzdrucküberwa­ chung des Filters 7 erfolgen, um festzustellen, wann ein Fil­ terverschmutzungsgrad erreicht ist, der eine Auswechselung oder ein Säubern des Filters erfordert oder ein Umschalten auf ein parallel angeordnetes neues Filter notwendig macht.By means of the pressure gauges 6 , 8 , a differential pressure monitoring of the filter 7 can be carried out in order to determine when a degree of filter contamination has been reached, which requires replacement or cleaning of the filter, or necessitating a switch to a new filter arranged in parallel.

Der Kühler 5 dient dazu, das Medium auf der gewünschten Tem­ peratur zu halten. The cooler 5 serves to keep the medium at the desired temperature.

Dadurch, daß die Hochdruckpumpe 9 nicht direkt aus dem Kühl­ mittelbehälter 1 ansaugen muß, sondern das Medium unter ei­ nem Ladedruck über die Tauchpumpe 3 erhält, wird sicherge­ stellt, daß eine absolut luftfreie Zuführung des Mediums zur Hochdruckpumpe gewährleistet ist und somit auch ein luftbla­ senfreier Kühlmittelstrom zur Verfügung steht, um die erfor­ derlichen Kühl- und/oder Schmiereffekte bei kritischen Bear­ beitungsvorgängen, insbesondere beim Tieflochbohren absolut problemfrei durchführen zu können.The fact that the high pressure pump 9 does not have to suck directly from the coolant container 1 , but receives the medium under egg nem boost pressure via the submersible pump 3 , will ensure that an absolutely air-free supply of the medium to the high pressure pump is guaranteed and thus an air blast senfreier Coolant flow is available in order to be able to carry out the necessary cooling and / or lubrication effects during critical machining operations, in particular when drilling deep holes, absolutely problem-free.

Wichtig ist ferner, daß durch das Arbeiten mit Ladedruck der Hochdruckpumpe ein Filter 7 vorgeschaltet werden kann, was praktisch nicht möglich ist, wenn die Hochdruckpumpe direkt ansaugen muß.It is also important that a filter 7 can be connected upstream by working with the boost pressure of the high-pressure pump, which is practically not possible if the high-pressure pump has to prime directly.

Auf der Ausgangsseite der Hochdruckpumpe 9 ist ein Sicher­ heitsventil 11 angeordnet.On the output side of the high pressure pump 9 , a safety valve 11 is arranged.

Über eine Einheit 12 kann eine Drehzahlregelung des Motors, insbesondere in Abhängigkeit von den jeweiligen Bearbeitungs­ vorgängen erfolgen, so daß eine gezielte Mengenregelung des Kühl- und/oder Schmiermittels möglich ist.A speed control of the engine can take place via a unit 12 , particularly as a function of the respective machining operations, so that a targeted control of the quantity of the coolant and / or lubricant is possible.
