Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of laser pipe cutting machines, and particularly relates to a laser pipe cutting machine with multi-segment linkage synchronous operation. Background Art
[0002] When steel pipes are produced, they need to be processed into different lengths for pre-treatment to facilitate subsequent processing, supporting assembly, and sales. Therefore, in the production process of steel pipes, cutting machines are essential equipment. The traditional method is to use cutting tools for cutting. However, the hardness of steel pipes is relatively high, and the loss of the cutting tools will increase correspondingly during cutting. Nowadays, people have developed a laser cutting method. The high temperature of laser particles can quickly melt the steel pipes, which has the advantages of high speed and high precision, and still has great development space in the future.
[0003] Existing laser pipe cutting machines will simultaneously perform multi-segment cutting operations on the same steel pipe. During the multi-segment cutting process, the temperature at the cutting position of the steel pipe will rise sharply. Therefore, a special cooling mechanism needs to be equipped to cool it down, and a clamping mechanism is also required to limit its position. Although the above mechanisms are applied in the prior art, in fact, during the preparation work, the two mechanisms need to be operated separately step by step, which will prolong the preparation work before steel pipe cutting and ultimately reduce the cutting efficiency of the steel pipe.

[0026] The present invention adopts the design of an actuator.

Compared with the pressure sensor, the actuator is more sensitive and can connect the circuit autonomously without waiting for the signal transmission and processing;
[0027] The present invention adopts the design of an inclined notch and a water guide notch. The inclined notch can ensure that the cooling water enters the cavity from bottom to top. Furthermore, when the supply of cooling water stops, the cooling water can be maximally discharged from the cavity, so that the external force on the buoyancy ball disappears, facilitating the reset of the positioning component. The water guide notch is located above the piston block. Therefore, only after the cavity is filled with water can the external cooling water enter the water guide cavity through the water guide notch. Thus, before the cooling water flows out, the position of the clamping component can be fixed in advance. Brief Description of the Drawings

[0040] In order to make the purpose and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be specifically described below in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is only used to describe one or several specific implementation manners of the present invention, and does not strictly limit the specific protection scope claimed by the present invention.
[0041] Embodiment 1
[0042] As Figure 1-6As shown, this is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a laser pipe cutting machine with multi-segment linkage synchronous operation, including a fixed frame 1, a support frame 2, a laser cutting head 3, a clamping assembly 4, a support plate 5, an actuator 6, an electromagnet 7, and a positioning assembly 8. There are multiple support frames 2, and multiple support frames 2 are all arranged above the fixed frame 1. The number of laser cutting heads 3 is the same as the number of support frames 2, and multiple laser cutting heads 3 are respectively fixedly connected to multiple support frames 2. The clamping assembly 4 is fixedly installed inside the support frame 2. The support plate 5 is arranged inside the fixed frame 1. A steel pipe is placed above the support plate 5. One end of the fixed frame 1 is provided with a reference plate 101. A clamping groove corresponding to the port of the steel pipe is opened on one side of the reference plate 101. And the support plate 5 is located directly below the support frame 2. The support plate 5 is set to be arc-shaped, and the radian inside the support plate 5 is the same as the radian of the outer circle of the steel pipe. The positioning assembly 8 is arranged inside the clamping assembly 4, and the positioning assembly 8 is used to fix the clamping assembly 4. The actuator 6 is arranged below the support plate 5. The actuator 6 is electrically connected to the mains electricity. The actuator 6 is used to electrically connect the laser cutting head 3 with the mains electricity. The electromagnet 7 is magnetically connected to one end of the clamping assembly 4. The pole of the electromagnet 7 opposite to the clamping assembly 4 is the same. And the repulsive force of the electromagnet 7 on the clamping assembly 4 after being energized can ensure the clamping of the steel pipe by the clamping assembly 4, avoiding the displacement of the steel pipe during the cutting process. The electromagnet 7 is connected to the actuator 6 through a wire.
[0043] When the present invention is in use, first place the steel pipe above the support plate 5. After being corrected by the reference plate 101, at this time, the steel pipe will squeeze the top end of the actuator 6. The actuator 6 operates and connects the electrical connection between the laser cutting head 3 and the mains electricity. At the same time, the electromagnet 7 will also be energized to generate magnetism. Subsequently, the clamping assembly 4 is displaced under the repulsive force of the electromagnet 7, and then the clamping assembly 4 gradually approaches the steel pipe. Then the steel pipe is restricted above the support plate 5. Subsequently, the staff can control the laser cutting head 3 to emit laser to melt and cut the part of the steel pipe to be cut through the human-machine interaction device. The human-machine interaction device can select a PLC control system. During this process, it is necessary for the staff to rotate the steel pipe, or it can also be driven by a motor. This is a commonly used technical means for those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated in this text.
[0044] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a fixed plate 102 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the fixed frame 1. An electric push rod 9 is fixedly installed above the fixed plate 102. The electric push rod 9 is electrically connected to an external power supply through a PLC control system. A connecting collar 901 is fixedly sleeved at the output end of the electric push rod 9. A sliding plate 10 is fixedly connected above the connecting collar 901. The sliding plate 10 can slide relative to the fixed frame 1. A support rod 11 is fixedly connected to the top end of the sliding plate 10. The top end of the support rod 11 is fixedly connected to the middle of the lower surface of the support plate 5.
[0045] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, two sets of sliding grooves 103 are formed on both sides of the fixing frame 1, with two in each set. One set of sliding grooves 103 is slidably connected to the sliding plate 10. Linkage baffles are fixedly connected to both ends of the sliding plate 10, and the width of the linkage baffles is greater than the width of the sliding grooves 103. Thus, when the sliding plate 10 slides along the inside of the sliding grooves 103, it will not skew. A connecting plate 201 fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame 2 is slidably arranged inside the other set of sliding grooves 103, and the bottom end of the connecting plate 201 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sliding plate 10.
[0046] According to the above structure, when it is necessary to adjust the distance between two adjacent laser cutting heads 3, the staff first operates the electric push rod 9. The output end of the electric push rod 9 drives the connecting collar 901 to move. The connecting collar 901 drives the sliding plate 10 to move. The sliding plate 10 drives the support rod 11 and the connecting plate 201 to move synchronously. The support rod 11 drives the support plate 5 to move. The connecting plate 201 drives the support frame 2 to move. The support frame 2 drives the laser cutting head 3 to move. Thus, the synchronous movement of the laser cutting head 3 and the support plate 5 can be realized. The electric push rod 9 can be controlled to operate separately through the PLC control system, or multiple electric push rods 9 can be operated synchronously to achieve the purpose of adjusting the distance between the laser cutting heads 3.
[0047] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, a fixed sleeve 202 is fixedly installed inside the support frame 2. The fixed sleeve 202 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the electromagnet 7. The fixed sleeve 202 is slidably sleeved on the outer surface of the clamping assembly 4. The fixed sleeve 202 is inclined relative to the support frame 2, so that the clamping assembly 4 can limit the steel pipe from both sides above, and at the same time, it also avoids the laser emitted by the laser cutting head 3 from affecting the normal operation of the clamping assembly 4.
[0048] Embodiment 2
[0049] Referring to Figure 3-6 , this is the second embodiment of the present invention, and this embodiment is based on the previous embodiment.
[0050] As Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown in the figure, two sets of clamping components 4 are arranged inside each support frame 2. The specifications and components of each set of clamping components 4 are the same. Only one of them will be described as an example below. The clamping component 4 includes a clamping plate 401, a linkage rod 402, a linkage magnetic plate 403, and a return spring 404. The clamping plate 401 is arranged below the fixed sleeve 202. The clamping plate 401 is also arc-shaped and is arranged above the center line of the steel pipe. Thus, when the clamping plate 401 fits on the outer surface of the steel pipe, the steel pipe can rotate inside the clamping plate 401 and the support plate 5, but will not shift up and down. The linkage rod 402 is fixedly connected to one side of the clamping plate 401. The linkage rod 402 slides through the inside of the fixed sleeve 202. The linkage magnetic plate 403 is fixedly connected to the end of the linkage rod 402 located inside the fixed sleeve 202. The linkage magnetic plate 403 is aligned with the electromagnet 7. When the electromagnet 7 is powered on, the opposite ends of the linkage magnetic plate 403 and the electromagnet 7 have the same magnetic poles (both S poles or N poles). Thus, there will be a repulsive force between the electromagnet 7 and the linkage magnetic plate 403. The return spring 404 is fixedly connected to one side of the linkage magnetic plate 403. The elastic force of the return spring 404 is always less than the repulsive force between the electromagnet 7 and the linkage magnetic plate 403. One end of the return spring 404 is fixedly connected to a spring base 4041. The spring base 4041 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 202. A sealing ring is installed on the outer surface of the spring base 4041.
[0051] Specifically, after the electromagnet 7 is powered on, the linkage magnetic plate 403 slides towards the bottom of the fixed sleeve 202 under the influence of the repulsive force. The linkage magnetic plate 403 squeezes the linkage rod 402 to move synchronously. The linkage rod 402 drives the clamping plate 401 to gradually approach the steel pipe. At the same time, when the linkage magnetic plate 403 moves, it will also squeeze the return spring 404. The return spring 404 contracts and stores energy. After the electromagnet 7 is powered off subsequently, the repulsive force received by the linkage magnetic plate 403 disappears. At this time, the return spring 404 can drive the linkage magnetic plate 403 to reset. Thus, the linkage rod 402 and the clamping plate 401 will also reset accordingly. At this time, it is convenient for the staff to remove the cut steel pipe.
[0052] Such as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the actuator 6 includes an extrusion head 601, a limit plate 602, a return spring 603, a transmission rod 604, and a docking head 605. The extrusion head 601 slides through the bottom of the support plate 5. The extrusion head 601 can be set as a spherical shape, and the part of the extrusion head 601 protruding from the support plate 5 occupies a range not greater than one-third of the spherical volume, so that there will be no excessive resistance when the staff places the steel pipe. The limit plate 602 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the extrusion head 601. The limit plate 602 is slidably arranged inside the support rod 11. The return spring 603 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the limit plate 602. The bottom end of the return spring 603 is fixedly connected to the bottom end inside the support rod 11. The transmission rod 604 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the limit plate 602. The transmission rod 604 penetrates the support rod 11 and extends into the inside of the slide plate 10. The docking head 605 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the transmission rod 604. Both the docking head 605 and the transmission rod 604 are made of insulating materials. Connecting leads are arranged on both sides of the docking head 605. The two connecting leads are electrically connected to the laser cutting head 3 and an external power source respectively.
[0053] Furthermore, docking grooves 6051 are formed on both sides of the bottom of the docking head 605. Connecting electrodes 13 are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the two connecting leads. Conductive contacts corresponding to the connecting electrodes 13 are fixedly embedded inside the two docking grooves 6051. The conductive contacts can be made of conductive materials such as copper sheets. After the connecting electrode 13 contacts the conductive contact, the circuit between the two connecting leads will be connected at this time. Furthermore, the laser cutting head 3 is electrically connected to the external power source through the connecting leads.
[0054] According to the above structure, after the steel pipe is placed above the support plate 5, the steel pipe will apply an extrusion force to the extrusion head 601. Subsequently, the extrusion head 601 drives the limit plate 602 to move downward along the inside of the support rod 11. The limit plate 602 drives the transmission rod 604 to descend. The transmission rod 604 drives the docking head 605 to descend. The docking head 605 drives the docking groove 6051 to be inserted onto the outer surface of the connecting electrode 13. At this time, the connecting electrode 13 can be electrically connected to the conductive contact, so that the circuit between the two connecting leads is also connected.
[0055] Embodiment 3
[0056] Refer to Figure 7-10 , which is the third embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is based on the first two embodiments.
[0057] As Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, a piston block 12 is slidably sleeved inside a fixed sleeve 202. Sealing rings are installed on both sides of the piston block 12. The piston block 12 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of a linkage rod 402. A cavity 1201 is formed inside the piston block 12. The cavity 1201 is designed in a ring shape and is arranged outside a positioning assembly 8. An inclined notch 1202 communicating with the cavity 1201 is formed at the bottom of the piston block 12, and the opening of the inclined notch 1202 faces downward.
[0058] As Figure 9 and Figure 10 shown, the positioning assembly 8 includes a positioning rod 801, a hinge rod 802, and a buoyancy ball 803. The positioning rod 801 slidably penetrates through the middle of the piston block 12. A positioning groove corresponding to the positioning rod 801 is formed inside the fixed sleeve 202. After the positioning rod 801 is inserted into the positioning groove, the piston block 12 is hinged to the bottom of the positioning rod 801 through the hinge rod 802. The buoyancy ball 803 is slidably sleeved inside the cavity 1201. One side of the buoyancy ball 803 is hinged to the hinge rod 802. The density of the buoyancy ball 803 is less than that of water. Therefore, when water flow is filled inside the cavity 1201, the buoyancy ball 803 is not only affected by the buoyancy of water but also by the extrusion force of the water flow, thereby enhancing the smoothness of the movement of the buoyancy ball 803. Open slots for sleeving the outside of the hinge rod 802 are formed on one side of both the positioning rod 801 and the buoyancy ball 803. The open slots provide a moving space for the hinge rod 802. A fixed retaining ring 1203 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity 1201 is also arranged on one side of the buoyancy ball 803. The fixed retaining ring 1203 is used to limit the buoyancy ball 803 to prevent the buoyancy ball 803 from pulling the positioning rod 801 into the cavity 1201 through the hinge rod 802.
[0059] Furthermore, a water inlet pipe 203 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom of the fixed sleeve 202. The water inlet pipe 203 can be connected to an external cooling water source through a water pump. A water guide cavity 4021 is formed inside the linkage rod 402. A water guide notch 4022 is formed on one side of the upper surface of the linkage rod 402. The water guide notch 4022 is located on the side of the piston block 12 facing the spring base 4041. A drain hole communicating with the water guide cavity 4021 is formed in the middle of the clamping plate 401.
[0060] It should be noted that since the water guide groove opening 4022 is located above the piston block 12, after flowing into the interior of the water guide cavity 4021 through the water adding pipe 203, it will first flow into the interior of the cavity 1201 through the inclined notch 1202. Subsequently, the water flow will squeeze the buoyancy ball 803, and the buoyancy ball 803 drives the hinge rod 802 to move upward. The hinge rod 802 drives the positioning rod 801 to gradually engage into the positioning groove, so that the piston block 12 can be fixed inside the fixed sleeve 202. Furthermore, the linkage rod 402 will also be fixed inside the fixed sleeve 202, so that the clamping plate 401 stably fits on the outer surface of the steel pipe, and thus the steel pipe will not drive the clamping plate 401 to shake while rotating.
[0061] It should be further noted that after the cooling water enters the interior of the water guide cavity 4021 through the water guide groove opening 4022, the cooling water will flow out from the drain hole to the outer surface of the steel pipe, so that the high temperature at the laser-fused part of the steel pipe can be quickly dissipated. Moreover, the cooling water can also reduce the temperature inside the fixed sleeve 202, thus preventing the phenomenon that the electromagnet 7 weakens its magnetism due to excessive working temperature.
[0062] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: First, the staff places the steel pipe above the support plate 5. After calibration by the reference plate 101, at this time, the steel pipe will squeeze the top of the actuator 6. The actuator 6 operates and connects the electrical connection between the laser cutting head 3 and the mains electricity. At the same time, the electromagnet 7 will also be energized to generate magnetism. Subsequently, the clamping assembly 4 displaces under the repulsive force of the electromagnet 7, and then the clamping assembly 4 gradually approaches the steel pipe. Thus, the steel pipe is restricted above the support plate 5. Then, the staff can control the laser cutting head 3 to emit laser to melt the cutting part of the steel pipe through the human-computer interaction device. And during the cutting process, there is a supply of cooling water at the joint between the clamping plate 401 and the steel pipe, so that the high temperature at the cutting part of the steel pipe can be quickly dissipated.
[0063] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention. The structures, devices, and operation methods not specifically described and explained in the present invention are implemented according to the conventional means in the art without special explanation and limitation.
