DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] Combined with Figure 1-5 The present invention is further described as follows:

[0038] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a laser welding protective lens mounting frame is provided, wherein a lower bracket (3), an upper positioning plate (1) and a lens outer frame (8) are sequentially connected and arranged from bottom to top, the upper positioning plate (1) is an arc-shaped plate, a first light hole (9) is arranged at the center of the circle of the upper positioning plate (1), a second light hole (13) is arranged at the center of the circle of the lower bracket (3), and a laser welding machine lens (7) is coaxial with the first light hole (9) and the second light hole (15); from the edge of the upper surface of the lower bracket (3) to the radial An n-shaped groove is provided extending in the direction; the diameter of the n-shaped groove is greater than the diameter of the second light-transmitting hole (13) and smaller than the diameter of the lower bracket (3); the center of the n-shaped groove is not coaxial with the center of the lower bracket; the diameter of the n-shaped groove is equal to the diameter of the protective lens (2); the center of the n-shaped groove is coaxial with the center of the protective lens (2); the protective lens (2) can be arranged on the n-shaped groove of the lower bracket (3); and the edge of the protective lens (2) can expose the n-shaped groove of the lower bracket (3) and the upper positioning plate (1).

[0039] The lower bracket (3) is provided with a vertical steel ball mounting hole (12), a tightening steel ball (4) and a tightening spring (5) are arranged in the steel ball mounting hole (12), a tightening screw (6) is connected to the tightening spring (5), and the tightening spring (5) is connected to the tightening steel ball (4). The steel ball mounting holes are provided with 3 or 4 holes, such as Figure 5 As shown, there are three steel ball mounting holes. A thread is arranged in the bottom opening of the steel ball mounting hole (12), and the tightening screw (6) cooperates with the thread. The top opening of the steel ball mounting hole is connected to the n-shaped groove, and the diameter of the top opening of the steel ball mounting hole is smaller than the diameter of the steel ball, thereby ensuring that the tightening steel ball can protrude 1-2 mm.

[0040] The semicircular diameter of the upper positioning plate (1) is equal to the semicircular diameter of the corresponding lower bracket (3).

[0041] The upper positioning plate (1) is provided with a first mounting hole (10), the lower bracket (3) is provided with a second mounting hole (15), and the upper positioning plate (1) and the lower bracket (3) are connected via the first mounting hole (10) and the second mounting hole (15). The lens outer frame (8) is provided with a third mounting hole, and the upper positioning plate (1) and the lens outer frame (8) are connected via the first mounting hole (10) and the third mounting hole.

[0042] A vent hole (14) communicating with the outside is arranged on the side wall of the second mounting hole (15) of the lower bracket (3). A thread is arranged at the outer end of the vent hole so as to be connected with a compressed air pipeline. Blowing compressed air through the vent hole can effectively prevent the damage to the lens caused by the splash of welding slag during welding, and at the same time, the pollution of the lens caused by the smoke generated by welding can be prevented, so that the lens is always in a protected state.

[0043] The lens frame (8) can semi-enclose or fully enclose the laser welding machine lens (7). Preferably, it is fully enclosed to prevent the lens from being polluted and damaged by smoke, splashing welding slag, etc. caused by welding, and at the same time, it can facilitate the rapid replacement of the protective lens and maximize the service life of the protective lens through the eccentric structure.

When the length of the locking screw is sufficient for locking, the elastic strength of the tightening spring (5) is sufficient to tighten the steel ball, further tighten and protect the lens, and meet the compression requirement when the lens is installed.

[0045] Working process:

[0046] After the lens is installed on the laser welding protective lens mounting frame, the lens installation gap (the degree of screwing in of the tightening screw affects the degree of tightening or loosening of the tightening steel ball on the protective lens) can be satisfied by pushing the exposed part of the lens to make the lens rotate around the center of the n-shaped groove, thereby changing the light-transmitting part of the lens and replacing the contaminated part with the clean part through angular displacement.

[0047] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention; therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
