Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of laser cleaning, and particularly relates to an on-line laser cleaning head for tire molds. Background Art

[0002] There are various cleaning methods in traditional cleaning industries, mostly using chemical agents and mechanical methods for cleaning. After the requirements of environmental protection regulations in China have become increasingly strict and people's awareness of environmental protection and safety has been enhanced day by day, the types of chemical agents that can be used in industrial production cleaning will become fewer and fewer. How to find a cleaner and non-damaging cleaning method is a problem that we have to consider. Laser cleaning has cleaning characteristics such as no grinding, non-contact, no thermal effect, and being applicable to objects of various materials, and is considered the most reliable and effective solution. At the same time, laser cleaning can solve problems that cannot be solved by traditional cleaning methods, and the laser cleaning head is an essential part of the laser cleaning machine.

[0003] Nowadays, laser cleaning heads can already be applied to most flat cleaning occasions, but they cannot meet the requirements for cleaning some non-flat occasions. For example, in the case of cleaning tire molds, since the inside of the tire mold is an irregular curved surface and dust is easily accumulated in the corners, traditional laser cleaning heads cannot clean this dust. At the same time, this dust will also contaminate the lens of the laser cleaning head due to not being cleaned all the time. Therefore, a laser cleaning head with a dust blowing device is needed. When the laser cleaning head is working, the dust blowing device will first blow out the dust in the corners, and then the laser cleaning head will clean up this dust. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an on-line laser cleaning head for tire molds in order to solve the problems that dust is easily accumulated in the corners inside the tire mold, resulting in the laser cleaning head being unable to clean these dust dead corners and the dust contaminating the lens, etc.

[0005] The present invention achieves the above object through the following technical solutions: It includes a main body of a laser cleaning head. One side of the main body of the laser cleaning head is provided with a control panel. Above one side of the main body of the laser cleaning head is provided with a laser head. The outer diameter surface of the laser head is provided with a water cooling device. One end of the water cooling device is provided with a first water cooling joint, and the other end of the water cooling device is provided with a second water cooling joint. Below the first water cooling joint is provided with a water inlet pipe, and below the second water cooling joint is provided with a water outlet pipe. Above the water cooling device is provided with a dust blowing device. Both ends of the dust blowing device are provided with connecting blocks, and below the connecting blocks are provided with support rods. Both ends of the main body of the laser cleaning head are provided with support blocks, and clamping grooves are opened on the support blocks. The support rods are located in the clamping grooves. One side of the dust blowing device is provided with a first rotating block, and the inner diameter surface of the first rotating block is provided with a first connecting shaft. Both ends of the first connecting shaft are provided with first fixing plates. One side of the first fixing plate is provided with a protective cover. One side of the protective cover is provided with a second rotating block, and the inner diameter surface of the second rotating block is provided with a second connecting shaft. Both ends of the second connecting shaft are provided with second fixing plates.

[0006] Furthermore, on the other side of the dust blowing device is provided with an air inlet end. One side of the air inlet end is provided with an air inlet joint, and one side of the air inlet joint is provided with an air inlet pipe. The air inlet end and the air inlet joint play a role in connecting the air inlet pipe to the dust blowing device, ensuring that the dust blowing device can perform dust blowing work.

[0007] Furthermore, both ends of the support block are provided with a first locking device, and one side of the second rotating block is provided with a second locking device. The first locking device plays a role in fixing the dust blowing device, preventing the dust blowing device from shaking during the working process. The second locking device plays a role in fixing the protective cover, preventing the protective cover from shaking during the working process of the laser cleaning head.

[0008] Furthermore, a dust blowing port is opened above the dust blowing device, and a notch is opened on the protective cover. The dust blowing port is used to blow out gas for dust blowing work. The notch on the protective cover ensures that after accommodating the dust blowing device, the first rotating block can be exposed through the notch.

[0009] Furthermore, on one side of the lower end of the main body of the laser cleaning head is provided with a handle. The outer diameter surface of the handle is provided with anti-slip patterns. Below the main body of the laser cleaning head is provided with a laser straightener. The handle is used to hold the main body of the laser cleaning head, and the anti-slip patterns can prevent the situation of dropping the hand during the working process of the laser cleaning head. The laser straightener plays a role in correcting the laser emitted by the main body of the laser cleaning head.

[0010] Beneficial effects: The present invention mainly relates to an on-line laser cleaning head for a tire mold. The first connecting shaft and the first rotating block fix one side of the dust blowing device on the main body of the laser cleaning head. When the dust blowing device needs to work, it is rotated to the outer diameter surface of the laser head. The connecting block and the support rod play a fixing role for the dust blowing device. The support rod is fixed on the inner diameter surface of the clamping groove on the support block through the first locking device. The dust blowing port on the dust blowing device blows air outwards to play a dust blowing role. The air inlet end and the air inlet joint connect the air inlet pipe to the dust blowing device. When the dust blowing device does not need to work, first pull up the protective cover through the second rotating block, then remove the air inlet pipe and rotate the dust blowing device into the protective cover, and then put down the protective cover. The locking device on one side of the second rotating block plays a fixing role for the position of the protective cover. The laser straightener can straighten the laser emitted by the main body of the laser cleaning head. Hold the main body of the laser cleaning head through the handle, and the anti-slip pattern on the outer diameter surface of the handle plays an anti-slip role, preventing the laser cleaning head from slipping off during the laser cleaning process. It has strong practicability and solves the problems that dust is likely to accumulate in the internal corners of the tire mold, resulting in the laser cleaning head being unable to clean these dust dead corners and the dust contaminating the lens, etc. Brief Description of the Drawings
