Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of self-clinching nut cutting, in particular to a cutting assembly for self-clinching nut processing. Background Art

[0002] A self-clinching nut (also called a press-in nut or a press-fit nut) is a nut that is fixed to a sheet or workpiece by pressing or press-fitting. This nut is widely used in the fields of automobiles, home appliances, electronic equipment, aerospace, etc., because it can provide reliable connection and high vibration resistance. It can be used to connect body sheet metal parts to provide a reliable fixing point, or to fix interior decoration, such as dashboards and door panels. Self-clinching nuts are cut during the processing process to ensure that the size and shape of the nut meet the design requirements, thereby ensuring its performance and reliability during installation and use. Laser cutting is generally selected during the cutting process of self-clinching nuts, which can improve cutting accuracy and surface quality, but the heat generated during laser cutting may cause local deformation of the self-clinching nut material.

[0003] The existing Chinese patent document with publication number CN116174939A proposes a laser cutting device with a protective component, which solves the above technical problems by installing a protective structure on the laser cutting machine body.

The protective effect near the cutting area of ​​the rivet nut is very small, and the protective effect against the heat generated during the laser cutting process is not obvious.

[0004] Therefore, the present invention proposes a cutting assembly for processing self-clinching nuts to solve the problem in the prior art that the heat generated during the laser cutting process may cause local deformation of the self-clinching nut material. A mold assembly designed to cooperate with the self-clinching nut cutting process is adopted, and an inert gas limiting and closed structure is introduced to cool down and protect both sides of the laser cutting area.

The workpiece enters through the workpiece entry groove 11, passes through the rotating tube 31, the cutting limit tube 1 21 and the cutting limit tube 2 22, and the workpiece is clamped by the workpiece clamping rotating assembly 3 and driven to rotate. The cutting limit tube 1 21 and the cutting limit tube 2 22 limit the cutting area of ​​the workpiece. The laser cutting positioning frame 26 facilitates the positioning of the laser beam of the laser cutting assembly 12, and also connects the cutting limit tube 1 21 and the cutting limit tube 2 22. The laser head of the laser cutting assembly 12 is aligned with the laser cutting positioning frame 26 to emit a laser beam. The workpiece rotates and is cut as a whole into the length required by the riveted nut. After the cutting limit tube 1 21 and the cutting limit tube 2 22 are installed, the surrounding ring 23 and the laser cutting positioning frame 26 completely surround the workpiece cutting area to form a closed cutting area, which is convenient for the later inert gas to fill the cutting area to form an oxidation-free space, avoid the formation of an oxide layer on the cutting edge, and improve subsequent processing and surface treatment.

Moreover, the height of the convex mirror mounting frame 262 can be fine-tuned by adjusting the threaded bolt 263. The convex mirror mounting frame 262 mainly plays the role of encapsulating the focusing convex mirror 261, so that the height of the focusing convex mirror 261 from the workpiece can be adjusted, and the focus can be adjusted according to the thickness of the workpiece tube wall, so that the laser beam can better adjust the cutting depth according to the material, and the cutting mouth is clean and neat. ;

The inner surface of the ring 214 is evenly distributed with heat dissipation fins 2141, an inert gas injection pipe 216 is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer surface of the cutting protection inner ring 215, and an injection branch pipe penetrating the closed rear slot plate 2151 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the inert gas injection pipe 216, an exhaust pipe is fixedly installed on the top inner wall of the cutting limit pipe 1 21, and an intake pipe is fixedly installed on the top inner wall of the inert gas injection pipe 216. A sealing ring 2153 is fixedly installed on one side of the inner surface of the cutting protection inner ring 215 close to the closed movable ring 214, and a stabilizing pad 2152 is fixedly installed on the other side of the inner surface of the cutting protection inner ring 215. A limited closed baffle 25 is provided on one side of the cutting limit pipe 22, and a closed circular plate 251 is rotatably installed on the inner side of the limited closed baffle 25, and a motor for driving the closed circular plate 251 to rotate is fixedly installed on the outer side of the limited closed baffle 25;In this embodiment, the cutting limit tube 1 21 and the cutting limit tube 22 are fixed to the limit tube mounting seat 24 by bolts and can be disassembled for maintenance. The cutting limit tube 1 21 and the cutting limit tube 22 mainly limit and protect the cutting area of ​​the workpiece. After the cutting limit tube 1 21, the cutting limit tube 22 and the surrounding ring 23 are installed, a closed environment can be formed in the workpiece cutting area. Because the cutting limit tube 1 21 and the cutting limit tube 22 have the same structure, this embodiment takes the cutting limit tube 1 21 as an example. First, the exhaust pipe on the top of the cutting limit tube 1 21 needs to be connected with the exhaust device The inlet pipe of the inert gas injection pipe 216 needs to be connected to the inert gas supply pipe. The workpiece passes through the cutting protection inner ring 215. The stabilizing pad 2152 is an elastic pad that acts as a buffer. The sealing ring 2153 seals the vicinity of the workpiece incision. The closed rear groove plate 2151 mainly plays the role of sealing the outer side of the cutting limit tube 21. The slag adsorption retaining ring 211 seals the inner side of the cutting limit tube 21. The closed movable ring 214 can rotate inside the closed cavity of the cutting limit tube 21, and at the same time, the inert gas enters the cavity partition of the cutting limit tube 21. The inert gas injection pipe 216 injects inert gas into the inner side of the closed movable ring 214 to fill the cutting area between the cutting limit tube 1 21 and the cutting limit tube 22. At the same time, as the gas is injected, the heat dissipation fins 2141 inside the closed movable ring 214 are blown and may rotate, thereby accelerating the cooling effect on the cutting area. At the same time, the inert gas guide ring 212 inside the slag adsorption baffle ring 211 guides the inert gas to the outside, so that the slag is taken out of the cutting seam away from the workpiece, which can effectively remove the slag generated during the cutting process and prevent the slag from re-attaching to the cutting edge. , reduce burrs and irregularities on the cutting edge, improve the smoothness of the cutting edge, suck out the inert gas through the exhaust pipe above the cutting limit tube 21, so that the inert gas carrying the slag is gathered on the inclined surface of the slag adsorption baffle ring 211, and a through hole is opened on the inclined surface of the slag adsorption baffle ring 211. At the same time, the slag adsorption pad 213 is laid as a breathable material to intercept the slag. Later, only the slag adsorption pad 213 needs to be disassembled and replaced. The inert gas discharge and outflow can effectively reduce the oxidation and thermal effects of the cutting edge of the workpiece, and improve the cutting accuracy and dimensional stability. ;

At this time, the driving motor 33 drives the rotating tube 31 to rotate, and the clamping tube 34 is also forced to clamp the workpiece and rotate, so that the workpiece can be cut in a circular shape. After the cutting is completed, the closed circular plate 251 on the inner side of the limiting closed baffle 25 rotates and contracts, so that one side of the cutting limiting tube 22 is exposed. At this time, the clamping telescopic rod 36 is driven to push the mounting baffle 35 to drive the clamping tube 34 to leave the limiting position of the extrusion groove plate 311. Under the elasticity of the elastic supporting pad 342, one end of the anti-skid pad 3411 is tilted, so that the workpiece is relaxed.
