[0002] The laser cutting machine focuses the laser emitted from the laser into a high-power density laser beam through the optical path system. The laser beam irradiates the surface of the workpiece, causing the workpiece to reach the melting point or boiling point. As the relative position of the beam and the workpiece moves, a cut is eventually formed in the material, thereby achieving the purpose of cutting. When processing metal plates, a metal plate laser cutting machine is also required.

[0003] After searching, it was found that the prior art publication number is CN113843523A, which discloses a laser cutting machine, including a base frame, a laser, a driving device for controlling the movement of the laser, and a detachable platform structure. The detachable platform structure includes two symmetrically arranged local workbenches, each of which includes a rack, a side support plate and an adjustment plate. A supporting beam installed on the base frame is arranged between the two local workbenches, one end of the side support plate and the adjustment plate are detachably mounted on the base frame through a support assembly, and the other end is detachably connected to the supporting beam through a supporting plug plate. A plurality of racks are arranged across the two side support plates and are equidistantly arranged along the length direction of the side support plates and are installed on the adjustment plate. This solution is achieved by detachably connecting all components in the detachable platform structure.

A plurality of through grooves are provided on the outer surface of the compression cylinder 203, so that the liquid can have more contact area with the compression cylinder 203, thereby improving the efficiency of heat conduction.

[0025] See also Figure 3 , Fig. 9 - Fig.11 The adjusting device includes a conducting tube 403, which is inserted into the interior of the lens barrel 404.

Specifically, a metal sleeve is further provided on the outer surface of the lens 407, and a plurality of heat conducting sheets 406 are all provided on the outer surface of the metal sleeve, and a sealing rubber ring is provided on the outer surface of the metal sleeve, and is fitted with the inner wall of the lens barrel 404 to prevent liquid from splashing onto the outer surface of the lens 407; like Fig. 9 - Fig.11 As shown, the outer surface of the heat conducting sheet 406 is provided with a reflux hole 411, the interior of the lens barrel 404 is provided with a reflux groove 408, the reflux groove 408 corresponds to the reflux hole 411, the bottom end of the conduction tube 403 is fixedly connected with a liquid outlet cylinder 412, the liquid outlet cylinder 412 is penetrated in the interior of a plurality of heat conducting sheets 406, the output end of the liquid outlet cylinder 412 is located at the bottom, the length of the liquid outlet cylinder 412 is greater than the maximum distance that the heat conducting sheet 406 moves, the bottom end of the conduction tube 403 is penetrated with a driving cylinder 409, the outer surface of the heat conducting sheet 406 is provided with a through hole, the driving cylinder 409 is penetrated in the through hole, the inner end of the driving cylinder 409 is threadedly sleeved with a driving screw 413, and the driving screw 413 is fixedly connected to the driving rod 402; A plurality of push baffles 410 are fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the driving cylinder 409.

Specifically, the heat conductive sheet 406 at the bottom is fixedly connected to the driving cylinder 409. When the driving cylinder 409 moves downward and drives the bottom heat conductive sheet 406 to move downward, the metal sleeve also moves downward. As the area of ​​the metal sleeve exposed in the movable chamber increases, the contact area of ​​the remaining heat conductive sheets 406 with it increases, thereby increasing the heat dissipation area. The focusing head 105 is also provided with multiple sets of lenses 407 for further amplifying the energy of the laser beam.

[0026] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the outer surface of the uniform heat cylinder 107 is fixedly connected with a return pipe 110, the return pipe 110 is connected to the chamber below the isolation plate 206, and the return pipe 110 is connected to the return groove 408. The interior of the frame 3 is provided with a laser cooling system (not shown in the figure) for dissipating the heat of the coolant. The specific working principle of the device is an existing mature technology and will not be elaborated here. The output pipe 111 is fixedly connected to the output end of the laser cooling system through a three-way pipe, and the return pipe 110 is also fixedly connected to the input end of the laser cooling system through a three-way pipe, wherein the other output end of the output pipe 111 is connected to the conduction pipe 403.

[0027] The working principle of the present invention is: When in use, the metal sheets to be cut are placed on the machine tool 1 in sequence, and the X-axis and the Y-axis drive the focusing head 105 to the top of the sheet to be cut. With the start-up of the laser 103, the emitted laser is focused by the lens 407, and then a high-temperature laser beam is emitted to cut the sheet. The protective gas enters from the gas plug cover 201 and comes to the inside of the compression cylinder 203 through the gas guide cylinder 202. When passing through the compression chamber 303, the gas temperature is reduced under the adiabatic expansion refrigeration effect, so that the coolant flowing through the outer surface of the compression cylinder 203 is cooled again. The high temperature of the outer surface of the lens barrel 404 will keep a constant temperature as the coolant in the cooling tube 401 flows. When the protective gas passes through the passive turbofan 302, the passive turbofan 302 also rotates, so that the coolant in the output tube 111 flows faster. Since the absorption rate of laser by different materials (such as copper and steel) is significantly different, it is necessary to adjust the focal length of the lens 407 to optimize the light spot, so the working temperature also increases. The output end of the stepper motor 112 drives the driving rod 402 to rotate, so that the driving screw 413 drives the driving cylinder 409 to move downward, so that the metal sleeve also moves downward. As the area of ​​the metal sleeve exposed in the active chamber increases, the contact area of ​​the remaining multiple heat conducting plates 406 with it increases, thereby increasing the heat dissipation area. The coolant passes through the reflux hole 411 to the reflux groove 408 and then flows back to the laser cooling system. As the temperature rises, the bimetallic spiral sheet 209 is heated and twisted. The screw 212 is driven to rotate by the driving block 210, so that the active cylinder 211 moves upward, so that the volume of the coolant flowing through the outlet hole 213 becomes larger, so that it can take away more heat, so that a stable working temperature can be maintained during the laser cutting process. Since the temperature of the gas flowing back from the cooling pipe 401 to the chamber below the isolation plate 206 is higher than the ambient temperature, the heat conducting gas pipe 208 is heated, and the protective gas flowing inside is also heated accordingly. Since the gas flows too fast, the temperature of the sprayed protective gas is higher than the temperature when it is stored. For the cutting of highly reflective materials or thicker materials, a higher temperature gas is required to help blow away the slag and preheat the plate. For low-reflective materials, the required power is lower and the working temperature is also lower. At this time, the temperature of the sprayed protective gas will not be too high, and therefore will not affect normal operations.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
