Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cutting, and particularly to a processing device with low running noise. Background Art
[0002] A cutting plotter, also known as a contour cutting plotter and a die cutting machine, is mainly used for die cutting (full cut, half cut), indentation, hot stamping, etc. of some thin materials (thin sheets) such as kraft paper, self-adhesive labels, car stickers, wall stickers, and instant stickers. The main components of the cutting plotter include a die cutting table, a pressing and cutting mechanism, and a motor for driving the pressing and cutting structure to move. When in use, the user needs to place the thin sheet on the die cutting table, and then the contour tracking mechanism on the die cutting table positions the thin sheet. The motor drives the pressing and cutting mechanism to reciprocate, and presses and engraves a predetermined pattern on the thin sheet according to a predetermined die cutting program.
[0003] The inventor noticed that the motor installed in the cutting plotter usually drives the dynamic pressing and cutting mechanism to move and hit a first side wall of the die cutting table. After hitting the first side wall, the motor drives the pressing and cutting mechanism to move towards a second side wall opposite to the first side wall. After the pressing and cutting structure hits the second side wall, the motor drives the pressing and cutting structure to move towards the first side wall again, thereby completing the reciprocating movement of the pressing and cutting structure. This also causes the cutting plotter to continuously generate wall-collision noise during operation, affecting the user experience. At the same time, continuous wall collisions will also shorten the service life of the die cutting table and the pressing and cutting mechanism.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a cutting plotter that can prevent the pressing and cutting mechanism from hitting the wall and at the same time achieve precise positioning of the pressing and cutting mechanism is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0012] When the processing device is in the pre-working state, when an external workpiece enters the working area and blocks the third sensor and the fourth sensor, the conveyor roller rotates forward, sucks in the external workpiece and drives the external workpiece to move.
[0013] In an alternative embodiment, both ends of the conveying roller are respectively connected to the first side wall and the second side wall, and a fifth sensor is further provided on the working area, and the fifth sensor is disposed close to the inner side of the working area; when the processing equipment is in a pre-working state and an external workpiece enters the working area and blocks the third sensor and the fourth sensor, the conveying roller rotates forward to suck and convey the external workpiece, and when the external workpiece is further conveyed to the inner side of the working area and blocks the fifth sensor, the processing equipment controls the conveying roller to stop rotating;
[0014] When the fifth sensor is blocked for a preset time, the processing equipment switches from the pre-working state to the working state, and the conveying roller can switch between three states: forward rotation, reverse rotation, and non-rotation.
[0015] In an alternative embodiment, the processing equipment further includes a first guide rod, a driving roller, and a second guide rod. The first guide rod, the driving roller, and the second guide rod are parallel to each other and arranged from top to bottom.

[0020] The processing equipment of the present invention introduces a first sensor and a second sensor. When the moving assembly moves to directly in front of the first sensor, the first sensor is blocked, so that the signal of the first sensor cannot be normally received. The processing equipment does not receive the signal emitted by the first sensor. Therefore, the processing equipment controls the moving assembly to stop moving towards the first side wall, that is, the moving assembly will not hit the first side wall. When the moving assembly moves to directly in front of the second sensor, the second sensor is blocked, so that the signal emitted by the second sensor cannot be normally received. The processing equipment does not receive the signal emitted by the second sensor. Thus, the processing equipment controls the transmission assembly to stop moving towards the second side wall, that is, the moving assembly will not hit the second side wall. Therefore, compared with the prior art, the processing equipment of the present invention will not hit the wall during operation, avoiding the generation of wall-hitting noise, enhancing the user experience, and also avoiding part loss caused by wall-hitting, thus extending the service life of the processing equipment. At the same time, due to the provision of the first sensor and the second sensor, the moving assembly does not need to hit the first side wall or the second side wall to seek positioning, but can use the first sensor and the second sensor as positioning anchor points. Compared with the prior art, the moving assembly of the present invention omits the useless movement strokes between the first sensor and the first side wall and between the second sensor and the second side wall, thereby increasing the proportion of the effective working stroke of the moving assembly of the present invention and improving the movement accuracy of the moving assembly. At the same time, the omission of the useless wall-hitting movement strokes also greatly improves the working efficiency of the processing equipment. Under the condition of the same workload, the processing equipment of the present invention can complete the work faster. Description of the Drawings

[0028] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0029] Referring to "", the present invention provides a processing equipment 100 with an anti-collision wall, low noise, accurate workpiece positioning and high processing efficiency. The processing equipment 100 includes a housing 10, a first sensor 15, a second sensor 16, a transmission component 30 and a motion component 20. The housing 10 includes a first side wall 11, a second side wall 12 and a third side wall 13. The first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12 are oppositely arranged; the third side wall 13 connects the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12. The first sensor 15 and the second anti-collision sensor 16 are arranged on the third side wall 13. The first sensor 15 is arranged adjacent to the first side wall 11, and the second sensor 16 is arranged adjacent to the second side wall 12.
[0030] See Figures 1-6
[0031] The moving component 20 is in driving connection with the transmission component 30, and the transmission component 30 drives the moving component 20 to move between the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12.
[0032] When the moving component 20 moves directly in front of the first sensor 15, the first sensor 15 is blocked, and the processing device 100 controls the moving component 20 to stop moving towards the first side wall 11. When the moving component 20 moves directly in front of the second sensor 16, the second sensor 16 is blocked, and the processing device 100 controls the transmission component 30 to stop moving towards the second side wall 12.
[0033] The first sensor 15 and the second sensor 16 can be transmissive photoelectric sensors, diffuse reflection photoelectric sensors or occlusion photoelectric sensors. In this embodiment, the first sensor 15 and the second sensor 16 are taken as diffuse reflection photoelectric sensors for illustration.
[0034] The processing device 100 of the present invention incorporates the first sensor 15 and the second sensor 16. When the moving component 20 moves directly in front of the first sensor 15, the first sensor 15 is blocked, causing the light flux emitted by the first sensor 15 to change. The processing device 100 receives the information on the change in the light flux fed back by the first sensor 15. Therefore, the processing device 100 controls the moving component 20 to stop moving towards the first side wall 11, that is, the moving component 20 will not hit the first side wall 11. When the moving component 20 moves directly in front of the second sensor 16, the second sensor 16 is blocked, causing the light flux emitted by the second sensor 16 to change. The processing device 100 receives the information on the change in the light flux fed back by the second sensor 16. Thus, the processing device 100 controls the transmission component 30 to stop moving towards the second side wall 12, that is, the moving component 20 will not hit the second side wall 12. Therefore, compared with the prior art, the processing device 100 of the present invention will not hit the wall during operation, avoiding the generation of wall-hitting noise, enhancing the user experience, and also avoiding the part loss caused by wall-hitting, thus extending the service life of the processing device 100.
[0035] Meanwhile, due to the provision of the first sensor 15 and the second sensor 16, the moving component 20 does not need to hit the first side wall 11 or the second side wall 12 to seek positioning. Instead, the first sensor 15 and the second sensor 16 can be used as positioning anchor points. Therefore, the first sensor 15 and the second sensor 16 can also be used as edge-seeking sensors. For example, every time it starts or stops, the moving component 20 can move to directly in front of the first sensor 15 or the second sensor 16 and use it as the zero point of the moving component 20.
[0036] In addition, compared with the prior art, the moving component 20 of the present invention omits the useless movement strokes between the first sensor 15 and the first side wall 11 and between the second sensor 16 and the second side wall 12. Therefore, the proportion of the effective working stroke of the moving component 20 of the present invention is increased, that is, the movement accuracy of the moving component 20 is improved. At the same time, the omission of the useless wall-collision movement strokes also greatly improves the working efficiency of the processing device 100. Under the condition of the same workload, the processing device 100 of the present invention can complete the work faster.
[0037] In this embodiment, when the moving component 20 moves to directly in front of the first sensor 15, the first sensor 15 is blocked. After the processing device 100 controls the moving component 20 to stop moving towards the first side wall 11, the processing device 100 can control the moving component 20 to stop or control the moving component 20 to move towards the second side wall 12. When the moving component 20 moves to directly in front of the second sensor 16, the second sensor 16 is blocked. The processing device 100 controls the transmission component to stop moving towards the second side wall 12, and the processing device 100 can control the moving component 20 to stop or control the moving component 20 to move towards the first side wall 11.
[0038] In an alternative embodiment, the processing device 100 further includes a workbench 40. The housing 10 is connected to the workbench 40. The transmission component 30 is arranged on the workbench 40 and is movably connected to the housing 10 and the workbench 40. Specifically, the housing 10 further includes a bottom wall 14 connected to the first side wall 11, the second side wall 12, and the third side wall 13. Thus, the processing device 100 is connected into a structurally stable whole.
[0039] A first limiting portion 41 and a second limiting portion 42 are provided on the workbench 40. The first limiting portion 41 and the second limiting portion 42 are oppositely arranged to define a working area 46 of the workbench 40. The first limiting portion 41 includes a first limiting plate 411, and the second limiting portion 42 includes a second limiting plate 421. The first limiting plate 411 is located on the side of the first limiting portion 41 and extends towards the second limiting portion 42. The second limiting plate 421 is located on the side of the second limiting portion 42 and extends towards the first limiting portion 41. It should be noted that the processing device 100 of this embodiment can be applied to a lettering machine for processing some workpieces with relatively thin thicknesses, such as paper, self-adhesive labels, car stickers, wall stickers, instant stickers, etc. The working area 46 refers to the processing area 461 after the workpiece is placed on the workbench 40. The first limiting portion 41 and the second limiting portion 42 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the workbench 40 to limit the width of the workpiece placed in the processing device 100.
[0040] In an optional embodiment, a preset distance exists between the first limiting plate 411 and the second limiting plate 421 and the working area 46 to limit the thickness of the workpiece entering the working area 46. During processing, when it is confirmed that the workpiece meets the width defined by the first limiting portion 41 and the second limiting portion 42, the workpiece is first placed in the working area 46 of the workbench 40. Then, the workpiece needs to be clamped between the first limiting plate 411, the second limiting plate 421, and the working area 46. On the one hand, such a setting limits the thickness of the workpiece to be processed. If the thickness of the workpiece is relatively thick and exceeds the vertical distance between the first limiting plate 411 and the working area 46, in subsequent processing, the moving component may not be able to complete the cutting of the workpiece. On the other hand, the first limiting plate 411 and the second limiting plate 421 can also play a role in pressing the workpiece, which can prevent the workpiece from warping and affecting subsequent processing operations.
[0041] In an optional embodiment, the processing device 100 further includes a third sensor 43, a fourth sensor 44, and a conveying roller 50 provided on the workbench 40. The third sensor 43 is located directly below the first limiting plate 411. The fourth sensor 44 is located directly below the second limiting plate 421. The conveying roller 50 is arranged adjacent to the working area 46. When an external workpiece enters the working area 46 and blocks the third sensor 43 and the fourth sensor 44, the conveying roller 50 rotates forward, sucks in the external workpiece, and drives the external workpiece to move. Both ends of the conveying roller 50 are movably connected to the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12 respectively. A fifth sensor 45 is also provided on the working area 46, and the fifth sensor 45 is arranged close to the inner side of the working area 46.
[0042] In this embodiment, the third sensor 43, the fourth sensor 44, and the fifth sensor 45 can also be transmissive photoelectric sensors, diffuse reflection photoelectric sensors, or light blocking photoelectric sensors. Here, the third sensor 43, the fourth sensor 44, and the fifth sensor 45 are taken as diffuse reflection photoelectric sensors as an example for illustration.
[0043] The processing device 100 has a pre-working state and a working state and can switch between the pre-working state and the working state. The pre-working state refers to the state where the workpiece is fed into the working area 46 and the moving assembly 20 has not started processing the workpiece yet. Therefore, in the pre-working state, the moving assembly 20 does not work, and the moving assembly 20 takes the first sensor 15 or the second sensor 16 as a reference point and is set at a set working zero point (such as directly in front of the first sensor 15, directly in front of the second sensor, the midpoint between the first sensor 15 and the second sensor 16, etc., which can be specifically set according to requirements).
[0044] When the processing device 100 is in the pre-working state, the moving assembly 20 is stationary, and the user can place an external workpiece on the workbench 40. Since the third sensor 43 and the fourth sensor 44 are respectively located directly below the first limiting plate 411 and the second limiting plate 421, when the workpiece is correctly placed, the third sensor 43 and the fourth sensor 44 will be blocked, resulting in a change in the light flux. The processing device 100 can recognize the change in the light flux fed back by the third sensor 43 and the fourth sensor 44 and control the transfer roller 50 to rotate. The transfer roller rotates to further suck in and transfer the external workpiece. In this embodiment, the third sensor 43, the fourth sensor 44, and the fifth sensor 45 also function as edge finders. The third sensor 43 or the fourth sensor 44 can be used as an anchor point to determine the midpoint in the width direction of the workpiece, and then the fifth sensor 45 can be used as an anchor point to determine the zero point in the length direction of the workpiece, thereby determining the machining center of the workpiece.
[0045] It should be noted that the present invention defines the situation where the width and thickness of the workpiece mentioned above do not exceed the preset range as the prerequisite for placing the workpiece, and the workpiece can only be placed when the prerequisite for placing the workpiece is met. Therefore, the definition of incorrect placement of the workpiece here refers to the situation of misoperation when the prerequisite for placement is met. For example, when the workpiece is placed, it is accidentally placed above the first limit plate 411 and the second limit plate 421. At this time, the third sensor 43 and the fourth sensor 44 are not blocked, so the processing device 100 will not control the transfer roller 50 to rotate, and the workpiece will not be sucked in. When the user finds that the workpiece is not sucked in, it can be judged that the placement of the workpiece is abnormal. Another example is when the user places a workpiece with a width significantly smaller than the working area 46, the workpiece cannot effectively block the third sensor 43 and the fourth sensor 44, and the workpiece cannot be sucked in for subsequent processing. The setting of the third sensor 43 and the fourth sensor 44 further ensures the safety of processing and avoids the occurrence of abnormal processing situations.
[0046] After the workpiece is sucked in by the transfer roller 50, it is necessary to judge when the workpiece can start to be processed, that is, it is necessary to judge from what moment the processing device 100 starts to switch from the pre-working state to the working state. To solve this problem, the present invention introduces the fifth sensor 45. In the pre-working state, when the transfer roller 50 rotates forward, the workpiece will be driven to move towards the inside of the working area 46. The fifth sensor 45 is located inside the working area 46. When an external workpiece is further transferred to the inside of the working area 46 and blocks the fifth sensor 45, the light flux emitted by the fifth sensor 45 changes. The processing device 100 receives the information of the light flux fed back by the fifth sensor 45 and controls the transfer roller to stop rotating. At this time, the pre-working state ends. When the fifth sensor 45 is blocked for a preset time, the processing device 100 switches from the pre-working state to the working state. The transfer roller 50 can switch between three states: forward rotation, reverse rotation, and non-rotation. The moving component 20 moves between the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12 to process the workpiece.
[0047] It should be noted that after entering the working state, the conveying roller 50 does not remain stationary, but rotates selectively according to the processing requirements of the workpiece. In the working state, the conveying roller 50 has three working states. Specifically, the conveying roller 50 can rotate forward to further suck in the workpiece, which facilitates the processing of different areas of the workpiece by the moving component 20. The conveying roller 50 can also rotate in the reverse direction to spit out the workpiece, which is convenient for taking out the processed workpiece or for the workpiece to be re-sucked for the next processing operation. The conveying roller 50 can also not rotate. At this time, the conveying roller 50 is also equivalent to a fixing device, which can cooperate with the first limiting plate 411 and the second limiting plate 421 to further fix the workpiece, keep the workpiece in a tensioned state, prevent the workpiece from moving, and thus facilitate the processing of the workpiece by the moving component 20. It can also be seen from this that when the processing device 100 is in the working state, the moving component 20 does not move throughout the process.
[0048] In an alternative embodiment, the processing device 100 further includes a first guide rod 60, a driving roller 80, and a second guide rod 70. The first guide rod 60, the driving roller 80, and the second guide rod 70 are parallel to each other and arranged from top to bottom. The two ends of the first guide rod 60 and the second guide rod 70 are respectively connected to the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12. The two ends of the driving roller 80 are respectively rotatably connected to the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12. The moving component 20 is movably connected to the first guide rod 60 and the second guide rod 70. The first guide rod 60 is located behind the moving component 20. The moving component 20 can move along the first guide rod 60, the driving roller 80, and the second guide rod 70. In this embodiment, the first guide rod 60 and the second guide rod 70 can be fixedly connected to the housing 10 through fixing members, such as screws, that is, the first guide rod 60 and the second guide rod 70 cannot rotate. The driving roller 80 is movably connected to the housing 10, that is, the driving roller 80 can rotate. The first guide rod 60, the driving roller 80, and the second guide rod 70 play a role in limiting and guiding the moving component 20. Since the first guide rod 60, the driving roller 80, and the second guide rod 70 are arranged in parallel between the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12, the moving component 20 can move horizontally between the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12.
[0049] In an alternative embodiment, the motion assembly 20 includes a moving member 23, a tool 24, and a mounting seat 25. The drive roller 80 and the second guide rod 70 pass through the moving member 23. The drive roller 80 passes through the middle of the moving member 23, and the second guide rod 70 passes through the lower part of the moving member 23. Therefore, the moving member 23 is stably fixed and not prone to shaking. The mounting member is movably connected to the moving member 23, and the tool 24 is movably clamped in the mounting seat 25. The tool 24 can be used to install workpiece processing instruments of different specifications, such as a tool bit (not shown) for processing the workpiece on the working area 46, or the tool can directly be a workpiece processing instrument, such as a pen, a syringe, a drawing stick, etc. The rotation of the drive roller 80 can drive the mounting seat 25 to move up and down, and then drive the tool 24 to move up and down, so as to control the processing depth of the tool 24 on the workpiece. During the movement of the motion assembly 20, the orthographic projection of the tool 24 always falls within the range of the working area 46, that is, the movement range of the tool 24 does not exceed the range of the working area 46. Specifically, during the movement of the motion assembly 20 along the second guide rod 70 and the drive roller 80, due to the arrangement of the first sensor 15 and the second sensor 16, the tool 24 of the motion assembly 20 has a maximum horizontal movement stroke. The fact that the maximum horizontal movement stroke of the tool 24 is always within the working area 46 means that the motion assembly 20 has higher processing accuracy. At the same time, since the working area 46 is defined by the first limiting portion 41 and the second limiting portion 42, the tool 24 will not touch the first limiting portion 41 and the second limiting portion 42 on the workbench 40 during the horizontal movement within the working area 46, improving the safety of the operation.
[0050] In an alternative embodiment, the working area 46 further includes a processing area 461. The orthographic projection of the tool 24 always falls within the processing area 461. In this embodiment, it is described by taking the example that a tool head is installed on the tool 24. The processing area 461 can be a groove. Since the tool 24 is sleeved in the moving member 23, the tool head also has a maximum horizontal movement stroke. The width of the processing area 461 is not less than the maximum horizontal movement stroke of the tool head. That is, the setting of the processing area 461 corresponds to the movement stroke of the tool head. Since the tool head moves up and down to control the processing depth of the workpiece, and the tool head is relatively sharp, when the workpiece is completely cut, the tool head will surely touch the processing area 461. If the processing area 461 is not protected, the service lives of the workbench 40 and the tool head will be affected. Therefore, in this embodiment, the processing area 461 is set as a groove, which can leave a larger cutting space for the tool head, avoid the tool head contacting the bottom of the groove, and thus extend the service lives of the workbench 40 and the tool head. Alternatively, in other embodiments, flexible materials such as silica gel and rubber can be laid on the bottom of the processing area 461. In this way, even if the tool head touches the bottom, it will not cause damage to the tool head, and the service lives of the workbench 40 and the tool head can also be extended.
[0051] In an alternative embodiment, the moving member 23 further includes a first mounting plate 21. The first mounting plate 21 is stacked on the moving member 23. An L-shaped baffle 211 is provided on the upper part of the outside of the first mounting member. The L-shaped baffle 211 is connected to the first mounting member to define a limiting space. A part of the first guide rod 60 is clamped in the limiting space. Since the tool head on the tool 24 will generate vibrations during processing, the vibrations may be transmitted to the moving member 23, and further cause the moving member 23 to vibrate up and down. Therefore, the first guide rod 60 and the L-shaped baffle 211 cooperating with the first guide rod 60 are provided. Since a part of the first guide rod 60 is clamped in the limiting space, and the first guide rod 60 is fixedly arranged between the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12, the first guide rod 60 limits the upward movement of the moving member 23. Therefore, the mounting seat 25 can only move up and down limitedly. The connection manner between the first mounting plate 21 and the moving member 23 in this embodiment is not limited. For example, the first mounting plate can be detachably connected to the moving member 23 through fixing members such as screws, or the first mounting plate 21 can also be fixedly connected to the moving member by means of welding, hot melting fixation, etc., as long as the normal operation of the moving assembly is ensured.
[0052] In an alternative embodiment, one or more vertically protruding ribs are provided on the first mounting plate 21 facing the direction of the L-shaped baffle 211; or one or more vertically protruding ribs are provided on the L-shaped baffle 211 facing the direction of the first mounting plate 21. The ribs further strengthen the connection stability between the L-shaped baffle 211, the first mounting plate 21 and the first guide rod 60, and reduce the vibration of the moving assembly.
[0053] In an alternative embodiment, the transmission assembly 30 includes a motor (not shown), a transmission belt 33, a driving wheel 31 and at least one driven wheel 32. The transmission belt 33 is in transmission connection with the driving wheel 31 and the driven wheel 32. The motor is connected to the output shaft of the driving wheel 31. The motor can rotate forward or backward. When the motor rotates, it drives the driving wheel 31 to rotate, and then drives the transmission belt 33 and the driven wheel 32 to rotate.
[0054] In an alternative embodiment, tooth grooves 331 are provided on the inner side surface of the transmission belt 33. The moving assembly 20 further includes a second mounting plate 22. Engagement teeth 221 are provided on the inner side surface of the second mounting plate 22. The second mounting plate 22 is arranged at the rear side of the moving member 23. The second mounting plate 22 is connected to the moving member 23 to define a positioning space. The transmission belt 33 passes through the positioning space, and the tooth grooves 331 of the transmission belt 33 are in meshing connection with the engagement teeth 221 of the second mounting plate 22. In this embodiment, the transmission belt 33 is a synchronous belt, and the driving wheel 31 is a synchronous gear. There are multiple driven wheels 32, and at least one of them is a synchronous gear. With this arrangement, the transmission of the transmission assembly 30 can be more accurate, so that the movement of the moving assembly 20 is also more accurate, facilitating the processing operation of the workpiece.
[0055] In addition, the connection manner between the second mounting plate 22 and the moving member 23 in this embodiment is not limited. For example, the second mounting plate can be detachably connected to the moving member 23 through fixing members such as screws, or the second mounting plate 22 can also be fixedly connected to the moving member by means of welding, hot melting and fixing, etc., as long as the normal operation of the moving assembly is ensured.
[0056] The working principle of the processing equipment 100 of the present invention is as follows: The processing equipment 100 of the present invention can realize the processing of workpieces in three dimensions. Please refer to Figure 1First, the horizontal moving direction of the moving assembly 20 is defined as the X direction (i.e., the moving direction of the moving assembly 20 along the first guide rod 60 and the second guide rod 70), the driving roller 80 is rotated, and the direction of driving the moving assembly 20 to move up and down is defined as the Z direction, and the moving direction of the workpiece is defined as the Y direction (i.e., the direction perpendicular to the conveying roller 50). In the pre-working stage, the workpiece is placed in the working area 46 and blocks the third sensor 43 and the fourth sensor 44. At this time, the conveying roller 50 rotates to suck the workpiece along the Y direction. When the workpiece moves to the inner side of the working area 46 and blocks the fifth sensor 45, the conveying roller 50 stops rotating, and the processing equipment 100 switches from the pre-working state to the working state. After entering the working state, the moving part 23 is driven by the transmission assembly 30 to move in the X direction, and the driving roller 80 drives the tool 24 to move in the Z direction, driving the tool head to process the workpiece in the X direction and the Z direction. When it is necessary to adjust the processing of the workpiece in the Y direction, the conveying roller 50 starts to rotate to adjust the processing position of the workpiece in the Y direction. After the adjustment is completed, the motion component 20 starts to move again and starts a new round of processing. Thus, the motion component 20, the conveying roller 50 and the driving roller 80 are manipulated according to the processing pattern until the processing of the workpiece is completed. Compared with the prior art, the motion component of the present invention will not hit the wall during the processing process, which reduces the processing noise and improves the processing accuracy and processing efficiency.

These descriptions are only for explaining the principles of the present invention and cannot be interpreted as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention in any way. Based on the explanations here, any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention, and other specific implementations of the present invention that can be associated with by technicians in this field without creative labor, should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
