Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of coding devices, and particularly to a coding device for aluminum ingots. Background Technology

[0002] A coding device is a non-contact marking system controlled by a microcontroller. It marks different positions on the surface of a product to create various texts, patterns, and other markings. On metal, coding is performed using a fiber laser. Fiber lasers use a laser beam to create permanent marks on various materials. The marks are "engraved" by the physical changes caused by light energy, or by burning away parts of the material to reveal the desired patterns, text, barcodes, and other graphics. However, existing fiber laser coding methods have certain drawbacks. First, the laser head is easily damaged by impacts or dust when not in use, affecting its operation. Second, when processing larger workpieces, the support surface of the placement plate is too small for convenient processing, and the placement plane cannot be adjusted according to the size of the workpiece. Finally, it is difficult to place on inclined or irregularly shaped surfaces; placing them directly on the placement plate prevents the coding surface from facing the laser head directly, failing to achieve the desired printing effect. Therefore, we propose a coding device for aluminum ingots. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The main objective of this invention is to provide an aluminum ingot marking device that can effectively solve the problems in the background art, such as the laser head being prone to dust accumulation or impact, the support plate not being able to change its support surface, and the difficulty in marking irregular shapes.

The fixed seat 1107 is provided inside the reserved slot 3. The upper part of the fixed seat 1107... A chuck 1106 is fixedly installed by bolts. A rotating disk 1104 is provided inside the chuck 1106. Three jaws 1101 are provided inside the chuck 1106. The jaws 1101 and the rotating disk 1104 are provided with meshing first teeth 1102. Each jaw 1101 has a first slot 1105 at both ends. A clamping block 1103 is provided in the first slot 1105. A second tooth 1108 is provided at the edge of the rotating disk 1104. A rotating hole 1111 is provided on the side of the chuck 1106. A rotating seat 1110 is provided at one end of the rotating hole 1111. A helical gear 1109 is provided on the rotating seat 1110. The helical gear 1109 meshes with the second tooth 1108.The protective device 12 includes a first buckle 1201, a protective cover 1202, a flip cover 1203, a second slot 1204, a second buckle 1205, and a second connecting block 1206. The lower surface of the card holder 8 is welded with the protective cover 1202. The first buckle 1201 and the second buckle 1205 are respectively provided on both sides of the protective cover 1202. The flip cover 1203 is connected to the lower part of the protective cover 1202 via a hinge. The edge of the flip cover 1203 is provided with the second connecting block 1206. The flip cover 1203 and the second connecting block 1206 are provided with the second slot 1204, and the second connecting block 1206 engages with the second buckle 1205. The surface of the main body 1 is provided with a heat dissipation mesh 13. The workbench 4 has a fixed slot inside, in which a keyboard 2 and a pull-out plate are provided, with the keyboard 2 located on the pull-out plate. An indicator light 5 is provided on one side of the workbench 4 near the lifting platform 7. A computer 6 is mounted on the lifting platform 7 via a connecting bracket.

[0028] It should be noted that this invention is an aluminum ingot marking device. In use, the power supply to the main body 1 is turned on, and the device switch is turned on. At this time, indicator light 5 illuminates, and the laser marking device of the main body 1 is activated. The system parameters are modified via computer 6 and keyboard 2. The aluminum ingot is then placed on the first placement plate 1003 and the second placement plate 1004 of the placement platform 10, ensuring the ingot is directly below the laser head 9. Then, by rotating handle 701, the first threaded rod 703 in the lifting column 705 rotates around the bearing seat, causing the nut seat 702 of the lifting platform 7 to move up and down along the first threaded rod 703, and driving the first connecting block 706 to rise and fall along the first moving groove 704, so that the focus of the laser head 9 is aligned with the surface of the aluminum ingot. The laser marking machine will then mark the text and images according to the pre-entered text and images. When marking larger items or aluminum ingots, the second threaded rod 1005 on one side of the placement platform 10 is rotated, causing the second threaded rod 1005 to drive the bevel gear set 1007 to rotate against the bearing seat. The bevel gear set 1007 drives the spur gear 1008 to rotate through the rotating shaft, thereby causing the spur gear 1008 to drive the racks 1009 on both sides to move to both sides. This causes the connecting bent rod 1006 on the rack 1009 to move to both sides along the second moving groove 1001, thereby causing the first placement plate 1003 and the second placement plate 1004 to separate to both sides along the guide rails 1002 on both sides. At this time, the support surface between the first placement plate 1003 and the second placement plate 1004... The increased volume allows for the placement of larger aluminum ingots on top, facilitating their processing. When processing the oblique side or irregularly shaped workpieces of the aluminum ingot, the workpiece can be clamped in the clamping device 11 within the pre-reserved slot 3. Specifically, since the chuck 1106 has a rotating hole 1111 on its side, and a rotating seat 1110 is provided at one end of the rotating hole 1111, with a helical gear 1109 mounted on the rotating seat 1110, the helical gear 1109 meshing with the second tooth 1108, the clamping block 1103 is first fixed to the first slot 1105 of the jaw 1101 with bolts, ensuring the marking face is towards the laser head 9. A rotating rod is then inserted into the rotating hole 1111, and rotating the rotating rod causes the helical gear 1109 to rotate around the rotating seat 1110. This causes the helical gear 1109 to mesh with the second tooth 1108 on the chuck 1106, causing the rotating disk 1104 to rotate around the center of the chuck 1106. At this time, the rotating disk 1104 meshes with the first tooth 1102 on the jaw 1101, and the jaw 1101 moves to clamp the workpiece. The angle of the font and pattern can be adjusted on the system to fall on the marking area, which is suitable for different irregular workpieces and inclined surfaces. When not in use, the protective cover 1202 is connected to the bottom of the flip cover 1203 by a hinge. The edge of the flip cover 1203 is provided with a second connecting block 1206. The flip cover 1203 and the second connecting block 1206 are provided with a second slot 1204. The second slot 1204 of the flip cover 1203 is removed from the first buckle 1201.The laser head 9 inside the protective cover 1202 is blocked by the flip cover 1203, and is secured to the second buckle 1205 by the second slot 1204 on the second connecting block 1206. At this time, the protective device 12 covers the laser head 9 on the card holder 8 on the worktable 4, which not only prevents dust but also prevents the laser head 9 from colliding with objects and causing damage. During operation, the equipment can dissipate heat through the heat dissipation mesh 13 below, thus ensuring normal machine operation.
