A nut, in particular a water outlet nut and its application.

A processing machine, such as a lathe, milling machine or drilling machine, can produce processing techniques such as cutting a metal workpiece according to requirements, so that the processing machine is widely used in various metal processing fields. When the metal workpiece is processed by the processing machine, a cutting fluid is often used in conjunction with it. The cutting fluid can provide cooling and lubrication to a processing area where the machine tool and the metal workpiece are in contact with each other, and at the same time can help to exclude process to optimize the overall machining process of the metal workpiece.

The current way to provide the cutting fluid is to add a pipeline to the processing machine so that the cutting fluid can be sprayed towards the processing area through the pipeline. However, the installation of the pipeline cannot directly go from the center of a processing tool to the The direct injection of the processing area also makes the structure of the processing machine more complicated, and the outlet of the pipeline needs to be adjacent to the processing area, which may easily cause the range of the processing area to be disturbed or limited.

There is also a central water outlet device that can directly spray the cutting fluid toward the processing area on one of the central axis of the processing machine and the center of the machining tool. However, the center water outlet device is not only relatively expensive in equipment cost, but also because the cutting fluid requires Flowing through the processing machine body leads to troublesome cleaning, and because of its relatively large volume, it often interferes with the processing tool and affects the processing area.
