Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of laser cutting, and in particular to a cutting device based on chuck follower bevel cutting. Background Art
[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, and at the same time, the high-pressure gas coaxial with the beam blows away the molten or vaporized metal. The chuck is a part of the laser cutting machine, mainly used to clamp and fix the pipe.
[0003] Laser bevel cutting requires that in a complete workpiece cutting, the cutting height, knife gap compensation, knife edge offset compensation, feed speed, and corner transition must be adjusted synchronously and in real time with the change of the bevel angle to achieve the correct cutting size, bevel angle, and satisfactory surface quality.
[0004] The existing laser cutting machine includes a machine tool, a first chuck slidably connected to the machine tool and used to fix the pipe, a second chuck fixed to the machine tool and used to drive the pipe to rotate, and a swing head installed on the machine tool near the second chuck, where the swing head is the laser cutting head.
[0005] With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, when laser cutting is performed on a pipe, when the swing head needs to swing and cut along the length direction of the pipe, the first chuck needs to drive the pipe to move first, and then start cutting. On the one hand, this wastes time, and on the other hand, the pipe will shake during the movement, affecting the cutting effect. Summary of the invention
[0006] In order to improve the efficiency and effect of pipe cutting, the present application provides a cutting device based on chuck follower bevel cutting.

At this time, the upper cover plate is restricted by the closing plate and cannot be opened. The closing plate is then fixed by the fixing assembly on the upper cover plate, so that the closing plate and the upper cover plate are both fixed, thereby improving the convenience of operation.
[0024] Optionally, the fixing assembly includes a fixing plate, a spring and a top block, wherein the fixing plate is fixed to the upper surface of the upper cover plate, the spring is fixed to the side wall of the fixing plate facing the closing plate, and the top block is fixed to the end of the spring and is used to tighten the closing plate.

At the same time, the motor 43 drives the rotating shaft 51 to rotate through the sprocket and the chain, and the cam 52 reciprocates the top plate 5. Only one motor 43 is needed to achieve this, thereby improving the transportation efficiency and the reciprocating shaking efficiency of the top plate 5.

The filter box 6 is provided with an air outlet 62 on the side away from the air vent 23, and a reinforced fan 63 is fixed at the air outlet 62. The reinforced fan 63 can make the debris and dust collection and treatment more thorough. The debris and dust enter the filter box 6 and are filtered by the mesh 71 and the mesh cloth 72 in turn, and the filtering effect is good. The mounting frame 8 can be taken out for cleaning by opening the upper cover 61.
