Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of processing equipment technology, and in particular to a cutting machine, an operation control method, an operation control device, and a storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] A cutting machine is used to cut strip materials into several workpieces of a specified length. Some workpieces require cutting to a specific length, such as... Figure 1 The irregular surface shown has a bent blade. When cutting incoming materials, the bent blade usually causes the cut workpiece to deform, resulting in a high scrap rate. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, and to provide a cutting machine, operation control method, operation control device and storage medium that can better cut materials and avoid workpiece deformation.

[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide a cutting machine, including a machine base, a top cutting assembly, a first side cutting assembly, and a second side cutting assembly, wherein:

[0005] The machine platform is equipped with a cutting station;

[0006] The top cutting assembly is located above the cutting station and includes a top cutter for cutting the upper surface of the strip material and a lifting drive device for driving the top cutter to rise and fall.

[0007] The first side cutting assembly is disposed at the first end of the cutting station, and includes a first cutting blade for cutting the side of the strip material and a first driving device for driving the first cutting blade to move in the horizontal direction.

[0008] The second side cutting assembly is located at the end of the cutting station and includes a second cutter for cutting the side of the strip material and a second driving device for driving the second cutter to move horizontally.

[0009] The cutting machine provided according to the embodiments of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: by respectively arranging a top cutting component, a first side cutting component, and a second side cutting component on the machine base, when the strip material is fed into the cutting station, the top cutter of the top cutting component and the first cutter of the first side cutting component cut the upper end face and the side face of the strip material to cut out the head of the workpiece; then the top cutter of the top cutting component and the second cutter of the second side cutting component cut the upper end face and the side face of the strip material to cut out the tail of the workpiece; therefore, when cutting the head and tail of the workpiece, the upper end face can be cut first and then the side face can be cut, so that even if it is necessary to cut out irregularly shaped workpieces, the workpiece will not be deformed.

[0010] The cutting machine described above also includes a support plate disposed at the cutting station for supporting the strip material, the support plate being matched with the bottom groove of the strip material.

[0011] A support plate is installed at the cutting station. The support plate matches the bottom groove of the strip material, so that when the strip material is conveyed to the cutting station, it can be placed on the support plate, thus providing better support for the strip material during cutting and preventing deformation.

[0012] In the above-mentioned cutting machine, the first cutter and the second cutter are irregular cutters, and the support plate is provided with a limiting groove. The shapes of the two ends of the limiting groove are respectively matched with the blade shape of the first cutter and the blade shape of the second cutter.

[0013] The irregular-shaped cutter can meet the cutting needs of workpieces with different shapes; the support plate is provided with a limiting groove, and the shape of the two ends of the limiting groove matches the blade shape of the first cutter and the blade shape of the second cutter, respectively. This allows the first and second cutters to fit the ends of the limiting groove when cutting strip materials. The support plate can support the cutting lines cut by the first and second cutters on the strip materials, making the strip materials less prone to deformation.

[0014] In the above-mentioned cutting machine, the machine base is also provided with a longitudinal drive assembly, which includes a longitudinal guide rail and a material clamping block. The material clamping block is adapted to clamp the strip material. The material clamping block is slidably engaged with the longitudinal guide rail. The material clamping block is adapted to convey the strip material to the cutting station by sliding along the length direction of the longitudinal guide rail.

[0015] By setting a longitudinal drive component on the machine, the strip material is placed on the material clamping block, and the material clamping block moves along the longitudinal guide rail, thereby realizing the conveying of the strip material to the cutting station.

[0016] In the above-mentioned cutting machine, a transverse drive assembly is also provided on the machine base, and two longitudinal drive assemblies are provided. The two longitudinal drive assemblies are arranged on the transverse drive assembly, and the transverse drive assembly is adapted to drive the longitudinal drive assembly to move in a direction perpendicular to the length direction of the longitudinal guide rail.

[0017] By setting up two longitudinal drive components, while one is feeding strip material to the cutting station for cutting, the operator can load the material onto the material clamping block of the other longitudinal drive component. After one strip material is cut, both longitudinal drive components move simultaneously on the transverse drive component, aligning the loaded longitudinal drive component with the cutting station to continue feeding strip material for cutting. The longitudinal drive component without strip material moves to the side for easy loading by the operator. This structural design eliminates the need to stop the machine and wait for the operator to load material after cutting a strip material, thus improving production efficiency.

[0018] In the aforementioned cutting machine, the machine base is further equipped with a detection unit for measuring the top hole of the strip material. The longitudinal drive assembly determines the head cutting position of the strip material based on the top hole detected by the detection unit and transports the strip material to the cutting station.

[0019] A detection unit is set up on the machine to measure the top holes of the strip material, thereby determining the position of a certain top hole of the strip material. Based on the top hole, the cutting position of the head or tail of the workpiece can be determined. Furthermore, by identifying top holes at the same position as references, the layout of the top holes of each workpiece can be made consistent.

[0020] In the above-mentioned cutting machine, the first end of the cutting station is the end close to the incoming strip material, and the first cutter is used to cut the side of the head of the strip material; the last end of the cutting station is the end away from the incoming strip material, and the second cutter is used to cut the side of the tail of the strip material.

[0021] In a second aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide an operation control method for a cutting machine described in the first aspect of the embodiments, comprising:

[0022] The lifting drive device is controlled to drive the top cutter to cut the upper surface of the strip material, so as to form a first top cutting line on the upper surface of the strip material.

[0023] The first driving device is controlled to drive the first cutter to cut the side of the strip material to form a first side cutting line on the side of the strip material, and the first side cutting line is connected to the first top cutting line.

[0024] The lifting drive device is controlled to drive the top cutter to cut the upper surface of the strip material, so as to form a second top cutting line on the upper surface of the strip material;

[0025] The second drive device is controlled to drive the second cutter to cut the side of the strip material to form a second side cutting line on the side of the strip material, and the second side cutting line is connected to the second top cutting line.

[0026] The operation control method of the cutting machine provided by the embodiments of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: when it is necessary to cut the head of the workpiece from the strip material, a first top cutting line is first cut on the upper end face of the strip material using a top cutter, and then a first side cutting line connected to the first top cutting line is cut on the side of the strip material using a first cutter; when it is necessary to cut the tail of the workpiece from the strip material, a second top cutting line is first cut on the upper end face of the strip material using a top cutter, and then a second side cutting line connected to the second top cutting line is cut on the side of the strip material using a second cutter; the method of cutting the upper end face first and then the side face ensures that even if it is necessary to cut irregularly shaped workpieces, the workpiece will not be deformed.

[0027] Thirdly, embodiments of the present invention provide an operation control device, including at least one control processor and a memory for communicatively connecting to the at least one control processor; the memory stores instructions executable by the at least one control processor, the instructions being executed by the at least one control processor to enable the at least one control processor to perform the operation control method as described in the second aspect of the embodiments above.

[0029] Fifthly, embodiments of the present invention provide a computer-readable storage medium, characterized in that the computer-readable storage medium stores computer-executable instructions, which are used to cause a computer to perform the operation control method as described in the second aspect of the embodiments above.

[0040] In the description of this invention, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "set up," "install," and "connect" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0041] This invention provides a cutting machine, a running control method, a running control device, and a storage medium, which can effectively cut materials and avoid workpiece deformation.

[0042] The embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0043] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3A first aspect of the present invention provides a cutting machine, including a machine base 100, a top cutting assembly 200, a first side cutting assembly 300, and a second side cutting assembly 400, wherein:

[0044] The machine base 100 serves as a support, and a cutting station for cutting strip materials 500 is provided on the machine base 100;

[0045] The top cutting assembly 200 is located above the cutting station and includes a top cutter 210 for cutting the upper surface of the strip material 500 and a lifting drive device 220 for driving the top cutter 210 to rise and fall.

[0046] The first side cutting assembly 300 is disposed at the first end of the cutting station, including a first cutter 310 for cutting the side of the strip material 500 and a first driving device 320 for driving the first cutter 310 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0047] The second side cutting assembly 400 is disposed at the end of the cutting station. The second side cutting assembly 400 is disposed at the end of the cutting station and includes a second cutter 410 for cutting the side of the strip material 500 and a second driving device 420 for driving the second cutter 410 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0048] According to the cutting machine provided in the embodiment of the present invention, by respectively arranging a top cutting assembly 200, a first side cutting assembly 300, and a second side cutting assembly 400 on the machine base 100, when the strip material 500 is fed into the cutting station, the top cutter 210 of the top cutting assembly 200 and the first cutter 310 of the first side cutting assembly 300 cut the upper end face and the side face of the strip material 500 to cut out the head of the workpiece; then the top cutter 210 of the top cutting assembly 200 and the second cutter 410 of the second side cutting assembly 400 cut the upper end face and the side face of the strip material 500 to cut out the tail of the workpiece; therefore, when cutting the head and tail of the workpiece, the upper end face can be cut first and then the side face can be cut, so that even if it is necessary to cut out irregularly shaped workpieces, the workpiece will not be deformed.

[0049] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The cutting machine described above also includes a support plate 600 set at the cutting station for supporting the strip material 500, the support plate 600 matching the bottom groove of the strip material 500.

[0050] A support plate 600 is installed at the cutting station. The support plate 600 matches the bottom groove of the strip material 500, so that when the strip material 500 is conveyed to the cutting station, the strip material 500 can be fitted onto the support plate 600, thereby providing good support for the strip material 500 during cutting and making it less prone to deformation.

[0051] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the above-mentioned cutting machine, the first cutter 310 and the second cutter 410 are irregular cutters. The support plate 600 is provided with a limiting groove 610. The shapes of the two ends of the limiting groove 610 are respectively matched with the blade shape of the first cutter 310 and the blade shape of the second cutter 410.

[0052] The irregular-shaped cutter can meet the cutting requirements of workpieces with different shapes; the support plate 600 is provided with a limiting groove 610, and the shapes of the two ends of the limiting groove 610 are respectively matched with the cutting edge shapes of the first cutter 310 and the second cutter 410, so that when the first cutter 310 and the second cutter 410 cut the strip material 500, they can fit in the end of the limiting groove 610 for cutting. The support plate 600 can support the cutting lines cut by the first cutter 310 and the second cutter 410 on the strip material 500, and the strip material 500 is not easily deformed.

[0053] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the aforementioned cutting machine, the machine base 100 is also provided with a longitudinal drive assembly 700, which includes a longitudinal guide rail 710 and a material clamping block 720. The material clamping block 720 is adapted to clamp the strip material 500. The material clamping block 720 is slidably engaged with the longitudinal guide rail 710. The material clamping block 720 is adapted to convey the strip material 500 to the cutting station by sliding along the length direction of the longitudinal guide rail 710.

[0054] By setting a longitudinal drive assembly 700 on the machine tool 100, the strip material 500 is placed on the material clamping block 720, and the material clamping block 720 moves along the longitudinal guide rail 710, thereby realizing the conveying of the strip material 500 to the cutting station.

[0055] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the aforementioned cutting machine, the machine base 100 is also provided with a transverse drive assembly 800 and two longitudinal drive assemblies 700. The two longitudinal drive assemblies 700 are located on the transverse drive assembly 800. The transverse drive assembly 800 is adapted to drive the longitudinal drive assembly 700 to move in a direction perpendicular to the length direction of the longitudinal guide rail 710.

[0056] By setting up two longitudinal drive components 700, when one is feeding strip material 500 to the cutting station for cutting, the operator can load the strip material 500 to be cut onto the material clamping block 720 of the other longitudinal drive component 700. After one strip material 500 is cut, both longitudinal drive components 700 move simultaneously on the transverse drive component 800, so that the loaded longitudinal drive component 700 is aligned with the cutting station and continues to feed strip material 500 for cutting, while the longitudinal drive component 700 without strip material 500 moves to the side for easy loading by the operator. This structural design eliminates the need to stop the machine and wait for the operator to load after cutting a strip material 500, which helps to improve production efficiency.

[0057] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the aforementioned cutting machine, the machine base 100 is also equipped with a detection unit 900 for measuring the top hole of the strip material 500. The longitudinal drive assembly 700 determines the head cutting position of the strip material 500 based on the top hole detected by the detection unit 900 and transports the strip material 500 to the cutting station.

[0058] A detection unit 900 is set on the machine tool 100 to measure the top hole of the strip material 500, thereby determining the position of a certain top hole of the strip material 500. Based on the top hole, the cutting position of the head or tail of the workpiece can be determined. Furthermore, by identifying top holes at the same position as a reference, the layout of the top holes of each workpiece can be made consistent.

[0059] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the above-mentioned cutting machine, the first end of the cutting station is the end close to the incoming strip material 500, and the first cutter 310 is used to cut the side of the head of the strip material 500; the last end of the cutting station is the end away from the incoming strip material 500, and the second cutter 410 is used to cut the side of the tail of the strip material 500.

[0060] Understandably, the first end of the cutting station is the end closest to the incoming strip material 500, that is, the first side cutting component 300 is located near the incoming strip material 500. The first cutter 310 and the top cutter 210 cut the strip material 500 at the first end of the cutting station to cut out the head of the workpiece. The material clamping block 720 then transports the strip material 500 to the end of the cutting station, that is, the end away from the incoming strip material 500, where the second cutter 410 and the top cutter 210 cut out the tail of the workpiece. After the cutting is completed, the cut workpiece is located on one side of the cutting station. Even if the length of the workpiece is less than the length of the cutting station, it will not fall off at the cutting station.

[0061] Reference Figure 4 A second aspect of the present invention provides an operation control method for a cutting machine applied to the first aspect of the present invention, including but not limited to steps S410 to S440:

[0062] Step S410: Control the lifting drive device 220 to drive the top cutter 210 to cut the upper end face of the strip material 500, so as to form a first top cutting line on the upper end face of the strip material 500.

[0063] Step S420: Control the first driving device 320 to drive the first cutter 310 to cut the side of the strip material 500, so as to form a first side cutting line on the side of the strip material 500, and the first side cutting line is connected to the first top cutting line.

[0064] Step S430: Control the lifting drive device 220 to drive the top cutter 210 to cut the upper end face of the strip material 500, so as to form a second top cutting line on the upper end face of the strip material 500.

[0065] Step S440: Control the second drive device 420 to drive the second cutter 410 to cut the side of the strip material 500, so as to form a second side cutting line on the side of the strip material 500, and the second side cutting line is connected to the second top cutting line.

[0066] According to the operation control method of the cutting machine provided in the embodiment of the present invention, when it is necessary to cut the head of the workpiece from the strip material 500, the top cutter 210 is first used to cut a first top cutting line on the upper end face of the strip material 500, and then the first cutter 310 is used to cut a first side cutting line connected to the first top cutting line on the side of the strip material 500; when it is necessary to cut the tail of the workpiece from the strip material 500, the top cutter 210 is first used to cut a second top cutting line on the upper end face of the strip material 500, and then the second cutter 410 is used to cut a second side cutting line connected to the second top cutting line on the side of the strip material 500; the method of cutting the upper end face first and then cutting the side face ensures that even if it is necessary to cut irregularly shaped workpieces, the workpiece will not be deformed.

[0069] Furthermore, a fifth aspect of the present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium, characterized in that the computer-readable storage medium stores computer-executable instructions for causing a computer to perform the operation control method of the second aspect embodiment above.
