Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of laser engraving machines, and specifically discloses a furniture laser engraving device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Laser engraving is a process of using a high-energy-density laser beam to act on the surface of a material to cause physical or chemical changes in the material, thereby achieving engraving. The engraving material is different, and there are differences. For some low-melting-point and easy-vaporization materials, such as wood, plastic, and leather used to make furniture, when the laser beam is irradiated onto the surface of the material, the material absorbs the energy of the laser, causing the surface temperature to rise rapidly. Under the action of laser energy, the molecules on the surface of the material obtain enough energy to overcome the intermolecular bonding force, and directly change from solid to gas. Thus, part of the material on the surface is removed, thereby achieving the engraved pattern or text.

[0003] However, during the vaporization process, smoke, solid particles, and harmful gases are generated, so an air extraction device needs to be installed on the laser engraving bed for safety processing. However, the air extraction pipe is usually fixed at a certain position, making it difficult to accurately process the processing position, which may cause some harmful gases to overflow, affecting the health of the workers. In addition, if the smoke and solid particles pass through the laser during the dispersion process, they will cause refraction and reflection of the laser, affecting the effect of laser engraving. Moreover, when engraving the corner position, the laser head needs to go through the processes of deceleration, zero setting, reversing, and acceleration, which will cause the laser engraving time at this position to be longer, the heat to be higher, and the engraving marks to be deeper relative to the uniform speed position, thereby affecting the quality of the engraved furniture, especially the furniture with light color.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] With reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0032] In order to enable the person skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0033] Figure 1 Disclosed is a furniture laser engraving device for engraving a pattern on the surface of furniture, including but not limited to wooden, plastic and leather furniture products, using the high temperature generated by laser to vaporize the surface of the furniture, thereby forming the pattern required by the consumer.

[0034] As Figure 1 shown, the furniture laser engraving device includes a workbench 1 provided with a fixing device, the furniture plate is placed on the surface of the workbench 1, the fixing device clamps and fixes the furniture plate to ensure correct engraving position, the fixing device can be selected from common fixing clamps or suction cup suction installation and fixation, a motion control system 3 capable of controlling the movement of the laser head 2 is assembled above the workbench 1, the motion control system 3 can control the laser head 2 to move in X, Y and Z three axes, an exhaust device and a heat conduction device capable of moving with the laser head 2 are assembled on the surface of the motion control system 3, which can accurately remove the smoke at the processing position and cool the position with high temperature.

[0035] As Figures 4-5 , Figures 7-8 and Figure 10 shown, two protective shells 11 distributed above and below are arranged below the laser head 2, an integrally formed external thread pipe 26 is assembled on the surface of the lower protective shell 11, an internal thread groove 27 adapted to the external thread pipe 26 is formed on the surface of the upper protective shell 11, the two protective shells 11 can be tightly installed and fixed by aligning the position of the external thread pipe 26 with the internal thread groove 27 during installation, and the same vertical position of the protective shell 11 is provided with a laser hole 5 for laser to pass through.

[0036] As Figures 6-8As shown, the heat conduction device includes annular heat conduction member one 4 and heat conduction member two 7, which are both assembled inside the protective shell 11. The lower position of the protective shell 11 is provided with a stepped recess 12 which is in communication with the outside. The mounting plate 10 is assembled at the position of the recess 12. The surface of the mounting plate 10 is provided with a mounting groove for assembling the heat conduction member one 4. The heat conduction member one 4 is directly placed inside the mounting groove. The surface of the mounting plate 10 is provided with an integrally formed flange 15 which is lapped on the stepped position of the recess 12. Two symmetrical movable heat conduction rods 6 are assembled inside the mounting plate 10 along the radial direction of the mounting plate 10. In order to ensure the stability of the movement of the heat conduction rods 6, balls can be arranged on the surface of the heat conduction rods 6 to reduce the friction when the heat conduction rods 6 move (see Figure 9 ). The elastic rope 9 is assembled between the heat conduction rods 6 and the mounting plate 10. The both ends of the elastic rope 9 are provided with studs 18 which are respectively screwed into the inside of the heat conduction rods 6 and the mounting plate 10 to facilitate the replacement of the elastic rope 9.

[0037] As shown in Figure 4 and Figures 6-8 , the heat conduction member two 7 movably penetrates the surface of the protective shell 11 and abuts against the upper surface of the heat conduction rod 6. In order to increase the contact area between the heat conduction member two 7 and the surface of the heat conduction rod 6, the top of the heat conduction rod 6 is provided with a flat surface to accelerate the heat transfer and thus improve the heat dissipation efficiency. A plurality of semiconductor refrigeration fins 8 are mounted on the top of the protective shell 11. The semiconductor refrigeration fins 8 are powered by a unified power supply which can be assembled on the protective shell 11 (not shown in the figure). The top of the heat conduction member two 7 abuts against the refrigeration side of the semiconductor refrigeration fin 8. A plurality of heat dissipation fins are assembled on the heat dissipation side of the semiconductor refrigeration fin 8 for improving the heat dissipation capacity. In the initial state, the two heat conduction rods 6 do not abut against the surface of the heat conduction member one 4.

[0038] Since high temperature is required for laser engraving, the influence of the heat conduction member two 7 on the heat conduction member one 4 needs to be reduced during normal engraving. Therefore, heat insulation sleeves for heat insulation are wrapped around the inner ring side and the outer ring side of the heat conduction member two 7, and only the top and the bottom thereof are used for heat conduction.

[0039] In the process of laser engraving, when a curved line needs to be engraved, the laser head 2 needs to slow down, reverse and accelerate, so compared with the area of uniform motion, the line when turning will be deeper or burned due to longer movement time, especially for light-colored furniture. When the motion control system 3 moves to drive the laser head 2 to move, the force generated by inertia will drive the two heat guide rods 6 to move respectively until they are completely against the surface of the heat guide part 4. At this time, the heat absorbed by the surface of the heat guide part 4 will be instantly transmitted by the heat guide rod 6, so there will be strong cooling in the turning stage to neutralize the high temperature generated by the long residence time, thereby effectively reducing the engraving or burning of the bending position. However, when the laser head 2 enters the state of uniform motion, the elastic rope 9 will pull the heat guide rod 6 back to the initial position due to the elastic force, so it will not affect the normal engraving.

[0040] However, due to the different angles of the bends in different patterns, in order to improve the stability of the movement of the heat guide rod 6, it is necessary to control the position of the heat guide rod 6 by assembling an angle adjusting assembly to ensure that it is consistent with the engraving angle, so that the force generated by inertia is applied to the heat guide rod 6 to the greatest extent.

[0041] As shown in Figure 8 and Figure 11 , the angle adjusting assembly includes a plurality of clamping grooves 13 arranged in a ring array inside the groove 12, and the surface of the mounting disc 10 is provided with a mounting groove 16 for mounting the clamping block 14. In this embodiment, the number of clamping blocks 14 is two and symmetrically installed, the inside of the mounting groove 16 is installed and fixed with the clamping block 14 by the spring 17, the clamping block 14 is set as an isosceles trapezoidal shape, the upper surface and the lower surface of the clamping block 14 are also set as inclined surfaces, and the inner wall shape of the clamping groove 13 is adapted to the shape of the clamping block 14. In this way, when the mounting groove 16 is rotated, the edge of the clamping groove 13 abuts against the surface of the clamping block 14 until it is extruded into the inside of the mounting groove 16. When moving to the position of the next clamping groove 13, the spring 17 extrudes the clamping block 14, so as to rotate the mounting disc 10, thereby realizing the rotation of the heat guide rod 6. In order to facilitate the rotation of the mounting disc 10, recesses (see Figure 5 ) for increasing friction are provided at the bottom of the mounting disc 10, and the staff can directly control the rotation of the mounting disc 10 through the recesses outside.

[0042] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the lower surface of the protective shell 11 at the lower position is provided with a plurality of annular array air holes 20, which are arranged in a circle around the center of the laser hole 5. An annular air passage 19 is arranged inside the protective shell 11, the inside of the air passage 19 is in communication with the inside of the air hole 20, and the top protective shell 11 is equipped with an air pipe 21 in communication with the air passage 19. A filter element 22 is arranged inside the air pipe 21. The surface of the motion control system 3 is equipped with a micro air pump 23, which is in communication with the inside of the air pipe 21. A special soft tube for inhaling is connected at this position to compensate for the displacement of the protective shell 11 during movement.

[0043] Since a large amount of smoke particles and toxic gases are generated during engraving, which not only harms the health but also affects the stability of the laser, by arranging a plurality of annular air holes 20, the toxic gases and smoke particles can be inhaled from the nearest air hole 20, thereby minimizing the smoke particles and gases passing through the engraving position of the laser, and ensuring the stability during engraving.

[0044] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 The surface of the upper protective shell 11 is equipped with a mounting bracket 24, and the surface of the laser head 2 is equipped with a rotatable threaded rod 25. The threaded rod 25 can rotate by itself but cannot produce longitudinal displacement. The end of the threaded rod 25 is threaded through the mounting bracket 24. The surface of the mounting bracket 24 is flat and tightly attached to the surface of the laser head 2. Therefore, by rotating the threaded rod 25, the position of the protective shell 11 can be controlled to adapt to furniture boards of different thicknesses.
