Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of CNC numerical control hot wire thermal cutting industry, and particularly relates to a thermal cutting of soft plastics such as EPS (polystyrene), EPE (polyethylene), PU (sponge), etc., and belongs to an automatic piercing and wire feeding numerical control thermal cutting machine in thermal cutting processing machinery. Background Art

[0002] At present, due to the wide application of soft plastics such as EPS (polystyrene), EPE (polyethylene), and PU (sponge), the market demand for such products is large. When these products are put into use, they need to be cut at positions such as their inner cores to form modular materials with a core-removing structure. Currently, the cutting and processing methods for these soft plastics generally include using hydraulic stamping machines, numerical control cutting machines, and manual cutting production methods. However, these methods basically have many defects, specifically as follows: (1) Hydraulic stamping machines use large-tonnage presses combined with die cutting to cut and form products. The die has a very limited adaptation range for the material thickness, generally not exceeding 5 cm in thickness. Moreover, the die cutting method will compress the soft plastic material and cause non-directional deformation, resulting in a change in the shape of the product, and it is basically not suitable for fine processing. (2) Numerical control cutting machines. Due to the wide application of numerical control equipment, the thermal processing machinery of numerical control equipment mainly uses laser and hot knife methods. Since the processing of soft plastic materials has high requirements for temperature control, when using laser cutting, the temperature generated by the laser is too high, which easily causes the soft plastic material to melt and pile up. Moreover, when the processing thickness is too large, the laser spot focusing deviation is large. For example, when cutting soft plastic materials more than 20 cm thick, the laser-cut pattern will deviate severely. Currently, the processing method of the hot knife mainly uses a heating alloy bar with a diameter of 4 mm to make a die. During cutting, due to the too large diameter of the heating alloy bar, the accuracy is too poor, the plane is rough and uneven. When cutting products more than 20 cm thick, the hot knife often bends, and it cannot accurately penetrate the soft plastic material, resulting in the inability to process fine patterns. (3) Manual cutting production requires using two templates to clamp the soft plastic material, then setting a small hole tube in the frame, threading a heating wire with a diameter of 0.5 mm, and cutting along the template pattern. In this way, when cutting soft plastics, it is impossible to accurately pierce holes, many patterns cannot make suitable templates, the labor intensity is large, the material density is too large to produce, and it can only be first cut into thin slices and small pieces and then processed, which is time-consuming and has low productivity.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to make certain improvements to the cutting methods and technologies of existing soft plastic materials. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages of the prior art and provide an automatic perforating and threading numerical control thermal cutting machine, which has the advantages of simple and reasonable structure, complete functions, low energy consumption, and high productivity. The structure of the automatic perforating and threading numerical control thermal cutting machine mainly includes: a numerical control mainframe, a chassis, a column frame, a cross beam, an upper head assembly, a lower head assembly, a material pressing frame structure, an X-axis structure, a Y-axis structure, and a Z-axis structure, etc.; mainly, an X-axis rolling conveyor belt table for conveying soft plastic in the X-axis direction is formed by installing a chassis workbench surface on the chassis, a lower head assembly is installed at the lower position of the chassis, column frames are installed on both sides of the chassis to support columns and cross beams, a material pressing frame structure composed of a material pressing frame and a material pressing rolling shaft is installed between the two column frames, an upper head assembly is installed on the cross beam, and it moves in the Y-axis direction synchronously with the sliding direction of the lower head assembly. The upper and lower head assemblies are controlled by a numerical control computer assembly in the numerical control mainframe; the upper head assembly has a perforating cylinder driving a perforating hollow tube to perforate the soft plastic. After the perforating hollow tube passes through the soft plastic material, the strong magnetic suction head of the lower head assembly sucks and tightens the perforated bullet head to complete the threading action, and a heating wire is connected to the top of the perforated bullet head. Then, the perforating cylinder of the upper head assembly retracts the perforating hollow tube, so that a heating wire is exposed between the upper and lower head assemblies. The tension of the heating wire is adjusted, the heating wire is energized to generate heat, and the data of the X and Y axes are output to complete the precise cutting of the soft plastic material; after the cutting is completed, the lower head assembly will release the heating wire and the perforated bullet head, and the upper head assembly will recover the heating wire and the perforated bullet head; repeat the above operations to continue the cutting operation on the next soft plastic pattern. In the Y-axis direction, multiple upper and lower heads can be installed according to the size of the soft plastic material to form synchronous production; in the X-axis direction, it can run continuously according to the length of the soft plastic material until all the soft plastic is produced and cut. The punching depth of the perforating hollow tube for the soft plastic material can be configured with an appropriate length according to the soft plastic, and by using the action of the perforating cylinder, it can easily pass through the soft plastic material with a thickness of more than 50 cm.

A lower Y-axis guide rail corresponding to the gap is provided at the lower position of the chassis, and a lower head assembly corresponding to the gap is provided on the lower Y-axis guide rail.

[0007] An upper Y-axis guide rail is installed on the cross beam, and an upper head assembly is installed on the upper Y-axis guide rail. The upper head assembly is located directly above the lower head assembly and moves synchronously with the lower head assembly in the Y-axis direction.

The upper head assembly and the lower head assembly are synchronously moved in the Y-axis direction through the lower Y-axis guide rail and the upper Y-axis guide rail, etc. When the perforating hollow tube and the perforating bullet head on the upper head assembly are pressed down in place, the pulling cylinder rises, the strong magnetic chuck holds the perforating bullet head, and then the pulling cylinder pulls down the perforating bullet head. The two wire clamping cylinders act respectively to push out the upper concave diamond plate and the lower concave diamond plate to move towards each other until they clamp the heating wire. The diamond-shaped opening formed by the approach of the upper concave diamond plate and the lower concave diamond plate continuously shrinks to a small hole smaller than the diameter of the heating wire and catches the perforating bullet head to prevent the perforating bullet head from coming out. The energized wire is connected to the upper concave diamond plate and the lower concave diamond plate. The upper concave diamond plate and the lower concave diamond plate are made of concave diamond-shaped metal plates. When the upper concave diamond plate and the lower concave diamond plate are opened, a large enough diamond-shaped inner hole is formed between the two diamond plates to allow the strong magnetic chuck to move upward. When closed, they can clamp the heating wire and ensure that the heating wire is automatically corrected and positioned due to drilling deviation.

[0012] Further, the funnel-shaped conductive block is a hollow structure that penetrates up and down. The hollow structure of the funnel-shaped conductive block is in the shape of a funnel with a narrow upper part and a wide lower part.

Detailed implementation mode

[0037] Embodiment 1

[0038] An automatic perforating and wire feeding numerically controlled thermal cutting machine described in this Embodiment 1, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown in the figure, it includes a chassis 2, column frames 5 which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper part of the chassis and are in the shape of a direction frame, columns 9 installed on the column frames, a cross beam 6 installed between the tops of the two columns, and a numerical control mainframe 1 installed behind the cross beam.

[0039] The top of the chassis is provided with a front conveyor belt 21 and a rear conveyor belt 22 to form the working surface of the chassis. The front conveyor belt and the rear conveyor belt are synchronously conveyed in the same direction to form X-axis direction conveyance. There is a gap between the front conveyor belt and the rear conveyor belt. At the position below the chassis, there is a lower Y-axis guide rail 34 corresponding to the gap, and a lower head assembly 31 corresponding to the gap is arranged on the lower Y-axis guide rail; this gap is a certain empty space left between the front and rear conveyor belts.

There are a perforating cylinder and a wire control motor installed in the upper part of the upper head assembly, and the wire control motor is installed with a wire winding wheel.

A wire clamping insulating plate 97 is installed between the wire clamping cylinders and the upper concave diamond plate and the lower concave diamond plate respectively. The lower head assembly is installed on the lower Y-axis slider. The wire clamping cylinders are installed on the upper part of the F-shaped seat plate. The wire clamping cylinders install the wire clamping insulating plate, the upper concave diamond plate and the lower concave diamond plate. The wire clamping insulating plate realizes the insulation between the wire clamping cylinders and the upper concave diamond plate and the lower concave diamond plate. A lower pull cylinder is installed in the middle of the F-shaped seat plate. The top of the cylinder rod of the lower pull cylinder installs a strong magnetic suction head. When the lower pull cylinder moves and extends upward, the strong magnetic suction head sucks the perforated bullet head. When the lower pull cylinder pulls back, the wire clamping cylinders push the upper concave diamond plate and the lower concave diamond plate to move closer to each other and finally clamp the heating wire to complete the automatic wire feeding action. The energized wires are connected to the upper concave diamond plate and the lower concave diamond plate.

[0044] The Y-axis movement of the upper and lower head assemblies and the lower head assembly is controlled by the numerical control host to move synchronously. The cylinder rod of the perforating cylinder drives the perforating hollow tube to press downward, pushing the heating wire and the perforated bullet head into the lower head assembly. The wire control motor is controlled by the numerical control program of the numerical control host to adjust the winding and unwinding of the heating wire. The funnel-shaped conductive block of the upper head assembly is connected to the power supply. Any one of the upper concave diamond plate or the lower concave diamond plate of the lower head assembly is connected to the power supply. The perforating hollow tube penetrates the soft plastic material with the heating wire, and is energized to generate heat. The numerical control host controls to complete the production.

[0045] In the present Embodiment 1, the funnel-shaped conductive block has a hollow structure that penetrates up and down. The hollow structure of the funnel-shaped conductive block is in the shape of a funnel with a narrow upper part and a wide lower part. On the inner side of the upper part of the hollow structure, there is also a heating wire wire groove 93 for stabilizing the heating wire on the funnel-shaped conductive block. The perforating bullet head includes a cylindrical head 94 at the upper part and a diamond-shaped perforating head 95 at the lower part. The bottom of the diamond-shaped perforating head is in a pointed shape. The diameter of the upper part of the hollow structure of the funnel-shaped conductive block is smaller than the distance of the stroke of the wire pressing cylinder. The perforating bullet head passes through the funnel-shaped conductive block. The funnel-shaped conductive block stabilizes the punching direction. After the perforating hollow tube is retracted, the funnel-shaped conductive block stabilizes the heating wire in the heating wire wire groove to form stable wire collection. The food structure of the perforating bullet head ensures the punching speed, improves the direction stability, and effectively prevents deviation. The cylindrical head at the top of the perforating bullet head can enter the perforating hollow tube and be tightly connected to the perforating hollow tube. The funnel-shaped conductive block can control the initial point where the perforating hollow tube enters the soft plastic material, implement precise positioning. After the automatic perforating and wire feeding action is completed; after cutting, the heating wire is recycled, the perforating bullet head quickly returns, and the funnel-shaped hollow structure of the funnel-shaped conductive block can achieve effective guiding to ensure that the perforating bullet head accurately returns to the perforating hollow tube.

[0046] In the present Embodiment 1, a wire adjusting guide rail 88 is further provided on the upper machine head frame seat. A wire adjusting slider seat 85 is movably installed on the wire adjusting guide rail. A wire adjusting guiding lower pulley 87 for guiding the insulating traction wire is installed on the wire adjusting slider seat. An upper wire adjusting spring 86 is provided above the wire adjusting guiding lower pulley at the upper part of the wire adjusting guide rail. A wire adjusting guiding upper pulley 71 for guiding the insulating traction wire is fixedly installed at the top of the perforating cylinder. The wire winding wheel of the wire controlling motor installs the insulating traction wire. The insulating traction wire is connected to the heating wire through the wire adjusting guiding lower pulley and the wire adjusting guiding upper pulley, and then connected to the perforating bullet head. The wire adjusting guiding lower pulley is installed on the wire adjusting slider seat. The wire adjusting spring is placed above the wire adjusting slider seat. The wire adjusting slider seat moves along the wire adjusting guide rail, and the wire adjusting slider compresses the wire adjusting spring, thereby realizing the use of the wire adjusting spring to ensure the tension of the heating wire; through the control of the wire controlling motor and the action with the wire adjusting spring, different spring tensions can be obtained.

[0047] The wire controlling motor in the present Embodiment 1 controls the insulating traction wire, performs digital wire feeding, and achieves a micro-tension. This micro-tension is equivalent to the weight of the wire adjusting slider seat and the wire adjusting guiding lower pulley, which is beneficial for the strong magnetic suction head to suck and pull down the perforating bullet head; during cutting, the wire controlling motor winds the wire, and the wire adjusting slider seat compresses the wire adjusting spring. The more the wire is wound, the greater the spring force, realizing digital control.

[0048] In the present Embodiment 1, a perforation guide rail 78 is further provided on the upper machine head frame base. A perforation sliding block seat 75 is movably installed on the perforation guide rail. The cylinder rod of the perforation cylinder is fixedly installed with the perforation sliding block seat.

The cylinder rod of the perforation cylinder is connected to the perforation sliding block seat, and the perforation sliding block seat is connected to the perforation insulating plate and the perforation hollow tube. Under the action of the perforation cylinder, the perforation sliding block seat and the perforation hollow tube move along the perforation guide rail. When moving downward, the perforation hollow tube penetrates the soft plastic material; the perforation insulating plate realizes the insulation between the perforation hollow tube and the perforation sliding block seat, that is, the insulation between the heating wire and the perforation sliding block seat can be realized.

[0049] In the present Embodiment 1, a lower Y-axis motor 38 is further provided at the lower part of the F-shaped seat plate.

The lower Y-axis synchronous pulley is connected to the lower Y-axis slider through a lower Y-axis synchronous belt 36. A lower Y-axis insulating plate 33 is further provided between the lower Y-axis guide rail and the chassis. The F-shaped seat plate and the like are installed below the empty gap between the front and rear conveyor belts. The Y-axis insulating plate is insulated from the chassis. The lower Y-axis guide rail and the lower Y-axis slider form an engaging connection of the track. The F-shaped seat plate is installed on the lower Y-axis slider, and the Y-axis synchronous belt is fixed on the F-shaped seat plate.

[0050] In the first embodiment, a Z-axis slider 54 fixedly installed with a pressure frame is movably installed on the Z-axis guide rail. A Z-axis motor 57 is installed on the top of the column frame. A Z-axis upper synchronous pulley 56 is installed on the power output end of the Z-axis motor. A Z-axis lower synchronous pulley 59 is provided on the column at a position below the Z-axis upper synchronous pulley. A Z-axis synchronous belt 55 connected to the Z-axis slider is provided between the Z-axis upper synchronous pulley and the Z-axis lower synchronous pulley. The pressure frame is of a square frame structure, and a pressure rolling shaft is installed inside the pressure frame through a rolling shaft elliptical seat 58. Z-axis guide rails are installed on the inner sides of the four corners of the column frames on both sides of the chassis. Under the action of the Z-axis synchronous belt, the Z-axis upper synchronous pulley and the Z-axis motor, the pressure frame moves up and down along the Z-axis guide rail through the Z-axis slider, and the pressure frame is driven by the Z-axis motor. Rolling shaft elliptical seats are installed on both inner sides of the wire pressing frame, and both ends of the pressure rolling shaft are placed into the rolling shaft elliptical seats. The Z-axis motor is controlled by the numerical control program of the numerical control host, and the pressure frame is controlled by the Z-axis motor. When recovering after punching, the action of pressing the material is completed to prevent the soft plastic material from moving when the perforated hollow tube is retracted, ensuring the stable movement in the X-axis direction. Moreover, the movement of the pressure frame in the Z-axis direction is controllable, suitable for use with various material thicknesses. The pressure rolling shaft is installed on the rolling shaft elliptical seat. When the pressure frame descends, the pressure rolling shaft is stuck on the top of the rolling shaft elliptical seat to form the function of pressing the material. When the pressure frame ascends to half of the elliptical height of the rolling shaft elliptical seat, the weight of the pressure rolling shaft presses the soft plastic material, and the soft plastic material can roll smoothly even with a small thickness change. The setting of the pressure frame and the like ensures the stable cutting of the soft plastic material in the X-axis direction. After cutting is completed, the pressure frame ascends and leaves the soft plastic material, facilitating the placement of a new soft plastic material and then pressing again for the next time.

For the transmission of the workbench surface in the X-axis direction, a certain gap is left between the front and rear conveyor belts. The front driving roller and the rear driving roller are connected to the X-axis motor through the X-axis synchronous belt, realizing the same-direction transmission of the front and rear conveyor belts.

[0058] In this Embodiment 1, the upper Y-axis structure composed of components such as the upper Y-axis slider in the Y-axis direction and the lower Y-axis structure composed of components such as the lower Y-axis slider can be provided with multiple upper head assemblies and lower head assemblies at the same time, and the same effect as that in Embodiment 1 can also be obtained.
