Description

  The present invention relates to a cutting blade cleaning device for a cutting machine that can clean a cutting blade that cuts a sheet material placed on a cutting table of the cutting machine.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a cutting machine has been used to cut a sheet material such as a cloth as a part for sewing clothing. The cutting machine can efficiently cut according to preset cutting data. In recent years, sheet materials for various industrial materials are also subject to cutting, and prepregs and the like in which a resin is impregnated in the middle of curing are also used (see, for example, Patent Document 1). However, when the prepreg is cut, the resin component adheres to the cutting blade or the like. If the resin component adheres to the cutting blade or the like, the cutting will be hindered. Therefore, the attached resin component needs to be removed and cleaned.

  In a cutting device that cuts the outer periphery of a protective sheet to be attached to a semiconductor wafer with a robot equipped with a cutter blade on the free end side, a cleaning means is provided on the stock device of the cutter blade to clean the cutter blade with a cleaning liquid with a cleaning brush. (For example, refer to Patent Document 2).

FIG. 5 is a plan view of the cutting blade cleaning device 2 of FIG. 2 and a plan view with the lid 11 removed. FIG. 6 is a partial front view schematically showing a closed state and an open state of the cleaning tank 12 and the cleaning tank lid 13 in the cleaning unit 10 of FIG.

  1 to 6 show the configuration and operation of the cutting blade cleaning device 2 of the cutting machine 1 as an embodiment of the present invention. In order to simplify the explanation, the corresponding configuration may be shown only in a specific figure in a front view, a plan view, or a side view of the same object, and may be omitted in others, or only the outline may be shown as a virtual line. . In addition, portions that are not described in the drawings to be described may be referred to with reference numerals described in other drawings.

  FIG. 1 shows a schematic configuration of a cutting blade cleaning device 2 of a cutting machine 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, where (a) is a plan view and (b) and (c) are front views. The cutting machine 1 includes a cutting table 3 and a cutting head 4. The cutting head 4 is provided with a cutting blade 5 so as to face the cutting table 3. About the cutting blade 5, it exaggerates rather than another part and shows relatively enlarged. The cutting head 4 has a function of switching the cutting blade 5 between a state in which the cutting blade 5 is raised and separated from the sheet material and a state in which the cutting blade 5 is lowered and cut.

  A sheet material can be sucked and held on the cutting table 3. If the cutting blade 5 is lowered and pierced from the surface of the sheet material, and the cutting head 4 is moved along the surface of the cutting table 3 according to preset cutting data, the sheet material is cut. Can do. However, when the sheet material is made of prepreg or the like, the resin component tends to adhere to the cutting blade 5 as dirt during cutting. The cutting machine 1 includes a cutting blade cleaning device 2 that cleans the cutting blade 5 and other parts such as the bottom surface of the material presser 4a in the vicinity thereof.

  The cutting table 3 has a horizontal and rectangular shape, and is formed with a brush region 6 that is a placement surface capable of holding a sheet material to be placed by suction downward. In the brush region 6, bristle brushes having synthetic resin bristles are arranged and fixed. The sheet material is placed on the tip of the bristles and is adsorbed by a suction force from below. When the cutting blade 5 enters the brush region 6 from above in order to cut the sheet material, the bristles can be elastically deformed to escape without being cut.

  As shown to Fig.1 (a), it has the traveling rail 7 in the X direction used as the left and right in a set of side edge which opposes the brush area 6 up and down. Between the upper and lower traveling rails 7, there is a beam body 8 that connects the sides between the upper and lower Y directions, and the beam body 8 is movable along the traveling rail 7 in the X direction. The cutting head 4 is supported by the beam body 8 and is movable along the beam body 8 in the Y direction.

  In the cutting machine 1 of the present embodiment, a carry-in area 9 is provided adjacent to the brush area 6 for carrying in the sheet material. In the carrying-in operation, for example, the surface of the sheet material is covered with a sealing film. As shown in FIG. 1C, the beam body 8 is movable on the surface of the cutting table 3 to a carry-in area 9 where the brush area 6 is not provided. The cutting blade cleaning device 2 is provided in the carry-in area 9. The cutting blade cleaning device 2 includes a cleaning unit 10 and a lid 11.

  Conventionally, in a cutting machine, the brush area 6 may be configured to be a transport conveyor capable of transporting a sheet material. When the brush area 6 is configured as a transport conveyor, it is necessary to dispose sprockets on the carry-in side and the transport side, so the position where the cleaning unit 10 is disposed is away from the brush area 6. In the present embodiment, since the brush region 6 is fixed, the brush region 6 can be brought close to the periphery. Further, in the transport conveyor, a step is generated such that the outer carry-in side and the carry-out side are higher than the placement surface, but the fixed brush region 6 can be set to the same height as the carry-in region 9, The cutting table 3 of the present embodiment has the same height on the entire surface.

  The washing tank 12 which is a washing means of the washing unit 10 can be moved in and out, and as shown in FIG. 1 (b), is immersed to a position lower than the surface of the cutting table 3 and waits, as shown in FIG. 1 (c). In this way, the cutting blade 5 and the bottom surface of the material presser 4a can be cleaned by protruding from the surface. Moreover, even if the raising / lowering stroke of the cutting blade 5 is small, it can wash | clean sufficiently. At the time of cleaning, the cutting head 4 is moved to the cleaning position. At the cleaning position, the cutting blade 5 is lowered, the cutting head 4 is moved within a certain range in the X direction and the Y direction, and the bottom surface of the cutting blade 5 and the material presser 4a is wiped with a brush provided in the cleaning tank 12. . The lid 11 can open and close the cleaning tank 12, and as shown in FIG. 1B, the surface of the cutting table 3 covers the top of the cleaning tank 12 while the cleaning tank 12 is immersed and waiting. close up. Since there is no region used only for cleaning within the movement range of the cutting blade 5, the cutting blade 5 can be cleaned using the cleaning tank 12 during cleaning without increasing the size of the cutting machine 1. It becomes. As shown in FIG. 1C, when the cleaning tank 12 protrudes, the lid 11 opens above the cleaning tank 12 and opens to the upstream side in the loading direction of the cutting table 3 from the cleaning tank 12. The direction in which the lid 11 opens may be the side in the vertical direction in the figure, and may be opened to the peripheral side so as not to hinder the cleaning operation due to the movement of the cutting head 4.

  In the present embodiment, the area used for carrying in the sheet material as the carry-in area 9 can also be used for carrying out the cut material. In addition, when a carry-out operation is necessary, a carry-out area can be provided at a position corresponding to the left side of the drawing, for example, separately from the carry-in area 9. In this case, the cleaning tank 12 can also be arranged in the carry-out area. The position where the cleaning tank 12 is disposed may be within the moving range of the cutting blade according to the function of the cutting machine to be used. In this embodiment, since the cleaning tank 12 and the lid 11 are arranged outside the brush region 6 of the cutting table 3 on which the sheet material can be placed and held by suction, the function of the suction holding is not affected. The cutting blade 5 can be cleaned.

  FIG. 2 is a front view schematically showing a state in which the cutting blade cleaning device 2 of FIG. 1 is on standby. The lid 11 includes a cleaning tank lid 13 attached below. The cleaning unit 10 includes a lifting mechanism 14 that lifts and lowers the cleaning tank 12 between the immersion and the protrusion, a motor 15 that is a drive source that drives the lifting mechanism 14, and an opening / closing mechanism 16. The opening / closing mechanism 16 opens and closes the cleaning tank lid 13 with respect to the cleaning tank 12 in conjunction with the lifting mechanism 14.

  As shown in FIG. 1, an attachment member 17 of the cutting blade cleaning device 2 is attached to a frame 6a on the carry-in side of the brush region 6 with a bolt 17a. The attachment member 17 supports the elevating mechanism 14 at the lower part. An opening / closing mechanism 16 is provided above the lifting mechanism 14. The elevating mechanism 14 and the opening / closing mechanism 16 include a rack member 18 in common. The lower part of the rack member 18 is supported by an elevating holder 19 attached to the lower part of the attaching member 17 with bolts 17b so as to be movable up and down. A support plate 20 that supports the cleaning tank 12 is connected to the upper portion of the rack member 18 via a connecting member 21. The connecting member 21 is attached to the rack member 18 and the support plate 20 with bolts 21a and 21b, respectively.

  The elevating mechanism 14 drives an elevating rack 18 a provided below the rack member 18 by a drive pinion gear 23 that meshes with an output pinion gear 22 attached to the output shaft of the motor 15. The drive pinion gear 23 is a two-stage gear having a small pinion 23 a and a large pinion 23 b provided coaxially. The small pinion 23 a meshes with the lifting rack 18 a and the large pinion 23 b meshes with the output pinion gear 22. .

  The opening / closing mechanism 16 includes an opening / closing rack 18 b provided on an upper portion of the rack member 18, an opening / closing pinion gear 24, and a swing member 25. The open / close pinion gear 24 meshes with the open / close rack 18b and is angularly displaced in accordance with the elevation of the open / close rack 18b. The swing member 25 is attached to the lower portion of the lid 11 and supports the lid 11 so as to swing about an axis 24 a that is angularly displaced together with the open / close pinion gear 24. The lid 11 opens and closes by swinging, and when the lid 11 swings, the swing member 25 becomes the base end side. A support member 26 that supports the cleaning tank lid 13 is attached to the lower portion of the lid 11 at a distance from the swinging member 25 in the vicinity of the tip on the attachment member 17 side. The shaft 24 a extends in the front-rear direction of the drawing, and both ends are rotatably supported by the side surfaces of the support frame 27.

  As described above, in this embodiment, the elevating mechanism 14 driven by the motor 15 is provided to elevate the cleaning tank 12, and the lid 11 can be opened / closed by the opening / closing mechanism 16 interlocked with the elevating mechanism 14. Since the motor 15 drives the lifting rack 18a below the cleaning tank 12 via the drive pinion gear 23, the motor 15 can be reliably moved up and down even when the heavy cleaning tank 12 becomes a load. In addition, the use of the rack member 18 formed of a plate material makes it possible to easily configure the opening / closing mechanism 16 that is linked to the lifting mechanism 14.

  Although the motor 15 is used as a drive source, the support plate 20 can be moved up and down with a piston rod using a pneumatic cylinder or the like. Even when the motor 15 is used as a drive source, a ball screw or the like can be used as the elevating mechanism 14. When the shaft 24a of the opening / closing mechanism 16 is directly driven by a drive source, the opening / closing pinion gear 24 and the opening / closing rack 18b function as a lifting mechanism, and the driving pinion gear 23 and the lifting rack 18a are not required. The opening / closing mechanism 16 may be configured to open and close the lid 11 by a link mechanism or a slide mechanism, or may be provided with a drive source different from the drive source of the elevating mechanism 14.

  FIG. 3 is a right side view schematically showing a state in which the cutting blade cleaning apparatus 2 of FIG. 1 is on standby. A swing member 25 is attached to the shaft 24a of the open / close pinion gear 24 with a bolt 25a. The support frame 27 is supported by the mounting member 17 on both sides in the upper width direction. A support block 28 not shown in FIGS. 2 and 4 is attached to the lower part of the support frame 27. The lifting holder 19 that supports the rack member 18 so as to be movable up and down is covered with a lifting cover 29, and the rack member 18 is supported between the lifting holder 19 and the lifting cover 29. In the vicinity of both ends in the width direction of the support plate 20, a lifting shaft 30 extending downward is attached. The lifting cover 29 and the lifting shaft 30 are also not shown in FIGS. The elevating shaft 30 is inserted into a linear bush 28a inserted into the support block 28, and the elevating of the support plate 20 is guided. The support block 28 is also provided with a groove for slidably receiving the rack member 18.

  FIG. 4 shows a simplified state in which the cutting blade cleaning device 2 of FIG. 1 can be cleaned. When the elevating mechanism 14 is driven by the motor 15 to raise the rack member 18, the open / close pinion gear 24 that meshes with the open / close rack 18 b of the open / close mechanism 16 rotates in the clockwise direction. The lid 11 swings through the swinging member 25 attached to the shaft 24a, and the cleaning tank lid 13 supported by the support member 26 opens according to the distal end side displacement 11a, and the upper part of the cleaning tank 12 is opened.

  The base end side of the lid 11 enters below the surface of the cutting table 3. When a drive source for driving the opening / closing mechanism 16 is provided, it is necessary to avoid interference with the base end side of the lid 11, and the arrangement is restricted. In this embodiment, since the motor 15 is disposed so as to face the lifting mechanism 14 and is not disposed around the opening / closing mechanism 16, interference with the proximal end side of the lid 11 can be avoided.

  The bottom of the cleaning tank 12 is supported by the support plate 20. When the support plate 20 rises as the rack member 18 rises, the cleaning tank 12 rises and the upper end protrudes from the surface of the carry-in area 9. The cleaning tank 12 has a storage tank 12a for storing a cleaning liquid such as a solvent, a cleaning brush 12b for wiping the bottom surface of the cutting blade 5 and the cloth presser 4a with the cleaning liquid, and the periphery of the storage tank 12a when covered with the cleaning tank lid 13. A packing 12c is provided. In this way, the washing tank lid 13 can be opened and closed together with the lid 11 supported via the support member 26 by swinging in conjunction with the elevation of the washing unit 10 having the washing tank 12. In addition, as a washing | cleaning means, the deposit | attachment to the cutting blade 5 etc. can also be removed using a wire brush etc., without using the washing tank 12. FIG.

  As described above, in the cleaning tank 12, the upper portion of the cleaning brush 12 b can be protruded from the surface of the cutting table 3. When the upper portion of the cleaning brush 12b protrudes, the cutting head 4 can be moved within a certain range even in a relatively large area such as the cutting blade 5 or the bottom surface of the material presser 4a that holds the periphery of the cutting blade at the time of cutting. For example, it can be easily cleaned at a position higher than the surface of the cutting table 3.

  FIG. 5 shows a plan view of the cutting blade cleaning device 2 of FIG. 2 in (a) and a state in which the lid 11 is removed in (b). In the state where the lid 11 is closed, the cleaning tank lid 13 shown in FIG. 5A covers the cleaning tank 12 shown in FIG. Since the packing 12c is provided, it can be sealed even if a volatile cleaning agent is stored in the storage tank 12a. Cleaning is possible by simply immersing the cutting edge of the cutting blade 5 in the cleaning material without providing the cleaning brush 12b. Moreover, you may make it vibrate the storage tank 12a or apply an ultrasonic wave. The cleaning brush 12b may be attached outside the storage tank 12a, and a part of the cleaning brush 12b may be immersed in the storage tank 12a.

  FIG. 6 shows a state where (a) is closed and (b) is opened between the cleaning tank 12 and the cleaning tank lid 13, partially in cross section and in a simplified manner. The cleaning tank lid 13 includes a lid body 13a and a lid holder 13b. The lid holder 13 b is attached to the support member 26 and supported on the distal end side of the lid 11. The lid main body 13a can move up and down relatively with respect to the lid holder 13b. As shown in FIG. 6A, the lower surface of the lid main body 13a presses the packing 12c of the cleaning tank 12 to seal the space above the storage tank 12a in a secret manner. The lid body 13a is provided with a convex portion 13d, and the lid holder 13b is provided with a hole portion 13e. A lid plate 13c is attached to the top of the convex portion 13d of the lid main body 13a fitted in the hole 13e of the lid holder 13b to prevent the lid main body 13a from falling off the lid holder 13b.

  The cleaning tank lid 13 may be supported by the support member 26 integrally without being divided into the lid main body 13a and the lid holder 13b. However, there is a possibility that an error occurs between the raising and lowering and the swinging, and the accuracy of sealing for pressing the packing 12c may be lowered. In this embodiment, the lid body 13a is supported by a lid holder 13b attached to the lower support member 26 of the lid 11 so as to be movable up and down, so that when pressing the packing 12c, the error is absorbed. It can be brought into close contact with the packing 12c by its own weight.
