[0035] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0036] Please see Figure 1-5 This invention provides a technical solution: a visually protected laser engraving device, including a processing table 1.
[0037] A feeding channel 101 for feeding is provided on one side of the processing table 1, and a pre-processing component is provided in the feeding channel 101. A lifting channel 102 is provided in the middle of the processing table 1, and a lifting clamping drive box 3 is installed in the lifting channel 102. A clamping unloading component is provided in the clamping drive box 3.
[0038] Two sliders 10 are installed on the top of the processing table 1, and a mounting bracket 12 is installed between the sliders 10. A horizontally movable mounting plate 14 is installed at the front end of the mounting bracket 12. An engraving head 15 is fixedly installed at the front end of the mounting plate 14, and an air outlet pipe 16 is installed on the side of the engraving head 15 at the front end of the mounting plate 14.
[0039] The top of the processing table 1 is provided with a protective cover 17, which covers the slider 10 and the mounting bracket 12. The top of the protective cover 17 has openings 18 on both sides, and a filter plate 20 is installed at the opening 18 on the top of the protective cover 17. A fan 29 is installed on the top of the protective cover 17. A door 22 is opened at the front end of the protective cover 17. A filter glass 2201 is installed at the front end of the door 22, and a heat insulation glass 2202 is installed at the rear end of the filter glass 2201 on the door 22.
[0040] During use, the workpiece is placed into the feeding channel 101 through the feeding hopper 2 installed on the side of the processing table 1. The inclined feeding channel 101 causes the workpiece to slide down, and the pre-treatment component can blow air on the sliding workpiece to prevent the workpiece from having debris on its surface after entering the device. Then the workpiece falls into the clamping drive box 3, and the clamping drive box 3 is lifted by the lifting mechanism for the laser engraving process. During this process, the fan 19 blows a high-speed airflow to the engraving position of the workpiece through the air outlet 16 to prevent the workpiece from burning due to high temperature. It can also clean the waste residue on the surface of the workpiece. Smoke is generated during the laser engraving process. The smoke rises through the opening 18 and passes through the filter plate 20 to be discharged from the protective cover 17. The filter plate 20 filters and absorbs the smoke to prevent the smoke from affecting the human body. When observing through the glass on the door 22 during engraving, the light filter glass 2201 filters out the glaring light to prevent eye irritation, and the heat insulation glass 2202 can prevent the internal heat from overflowing and affecting the working environment.
[0041] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, a drive belt 11 for driving the slider 10 to move back and forth is installed on the top of the processing table 1, and a drive belt 13 for driving the mounting plate 14 to move laterally is installed on the top of the mounting bracket 12.
[0042] During the laser engraving process, the programmed program controls the start of drive belt 11, drive belt 2, and engraving head 15, thereby controlling the front-to-back and lateral positions of the engraving head 15 and engraving the specified pattern during the continuous lateral movement.
[0043] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, the top of the air outlet pipe 16 passes through the protective cover 17 and is connected to the air outlet of the second fan 19. The air outlet pipe 16 is provided with a telescopic pipe section inside the protective cover 17.
[0044] During the workpiece processing, the second fan 19 delivers gas to the air outlet pipe 16, and the telescopic pipe section design on the air outlet pipe 16 allows the air outlet pipe 16 to move synchronously without being affected when the mounting plate 14 is driven to move.
[0045] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, the pretreatment component includes an adsorption plate 5, a perforated plate 6, a blower 7, and an air guide box 8. The perforated plate 6 is installed in the bottom wall of the feeding channel 101, the adsorption plate 5 is installed at the bottom of the perforated plate 6, the air guide box 8 is installed in the top wall of the feeding channel 101, and the blower 7 is installed on the side wall of the air guide box 8 away from the feeding channel 101. An air inlet channel 104 connected to the air inlet of the blower 7 is opened on the side wall of the processing table 1.
[0046] When the workpiece enters the feeding channel 101, the blower 7 blows air onto the workpiece through the air guide box 8. The bottom of the air guide box 8 has multiple air outlets, which blows off the dust and debris on the surface of the workpiece. Then, the dust and debris pass through the mesh plate 6 and are adsorbed by the adsorption plate 5, achieving a highly efficient pre-cleaning effect before processing and enabling automated feeding.
[0047] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, the air inlet channel 104 is provided with a filter box 21, and a stop 105 for limiting the filter box 21 is installed on the inner wall of the air inlet channel 104. A replaceable filter element 2101 is installed inside the filter box 21.
[0048] When the blower 7 starts, the external air is blown into the feed channel 101 through the air inlet channel 104. At this time, the filter box 21 plays an effective filtering role, preventing the air drawn by the blower 7 from containing too much dust, which would affect the pretreatment effect.
[0049] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4In one embodiment of the present invention, the end of the feeding channel 101 is connected to the lifting channel 102. A waste box 4 is installed at the bottom of the lifting channel 102. A clamping drive box 3 is provided above the waste box 4. Electric slide rails 9 for driving the clamping drive box 3 to lift are installed on the front and rear walls of the lifting channel 102. Lifting blocks 301 inserted into the electric slide rails 9 are installed on the front and rear sides of the clamping drive box 3. The side wall of the clamping drive box 3 away from the feeding channel 101 is a rotating side plate 302. A servo motor 303 is installed on the clamping drive box 3, and the output shaft of the servo motor 303 is connected to the rotating shaft of the rotating side plate 302.
[0050] After the workpiece enters the clamping drive box 3, the clamping drive box 3 is raised and lowered by the electric slide rail 9, so that the workpiece moves to the bottom of the processing mechanism and completes the laser engraving process. It should be noted that the bottom of the clamping drive box 3 has several through holes to facilitate the waste to fall into the waste bin 4. After the processing is completed, the servo motor 303 can drive the rotating side plate 302 to rotate, so that the workpiece can be moved out of the clamping drive box 3 from the left side.
[0051] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 In one embodiment of the present invention, the clamping and unloading assembly includes clamping plates 304 and rollers 305. Two clamping plates 304 are mirror-mounted in the clamping drive box 3 on one side near the rotating side plate 302, and a plurality of rollers 305 are rotatably mounted on the side of the clamping plates 304 that are close to each other. An electric push rod is installed on the inner wall of the clamping drive box 3, and the telescopic shaft of the electric push rod is connected to the clamping plate 304. A drive motor for driving the rollers 305 to rotate is provided in the clamping plate 304.
[0052] In the above embodiment, the lifting channel 102 in the processing table 1 is inclined to the side away from the feeding channel 101 and a discharge ramp 103 is provided on the outside of the processing table 1 at the end of the discharge ramp 103.
[0053] After the workpiece enters the clamping drive box 3, the two clamping plates 304 are driven to move closer to each other by an electric push rod, and then the workpiece is clamped by rollers 305. At this time, the rollers 305 are in a stationary state, which facilitates clamping. After processing, the clamping drive box 3 is lowered to a position flush with the right side of the unloading ramp 103 by an electric slide rail 9. The rotating side plate 302 is driven to be horizontal by a servo motor 303. The rollers 305 driven by the components inside the clamping plate 304 move the workpiece to one side of the rotating side plate 302, and the workpiece completes the automatic unloading process, avoiding safety hazards.
