Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of laser die cutting, and particularly relates to a laser die cutting device for adhesive label packaging material. BACKGROUND

[0002] The adhesive label packaging material is also called self-adhesive label material, which is a composite material with paper, film or other special materials as the surface material, the back coated with adhesive, and the bottom paper as the bottom paper. After printing, die cutting and other processes, the adhesive label packaging material becomes a finished product, which has the advantages of no need to brush glue, no need to use paste, no need to dip water, no pollution, saving label sticking time, wide application range, convenience and speed. Laser die cutting is a process of using high-energy and high-density laser beams to move quickly according to the designed pattern, and heating the die cutting material to the gasification temperature in an instant, so as to obtain continuous or intermittent cutting seams and indentations.

[0003] During the laser die cutting process of the adhesive label packaging material, when the laser is irradiated on the surface of the material, local heat accumulation will occur, and then the material will be softened, bulged and micro-deformed, especially in some composite materials. At the same time, under the action of the air cooling airflow, especially the pulse airflow or small scale vortex caused by the improper design of the air duct, the micro-deformation can be amplified, and the resonance effect of the material can be caused. This resonance not only causes the continuous micro-displacement or edge lifting of the material, but also causes the deviation of the laser focal point position, changes the focal length, further affects the interaction between the laser beam and the material interface, and thus produces irregular cutting depth and trajectory error.

[0050] Embodiment one

[0051] As Figures 1-6As shown, a kind of laser die cutting device of adhesive packaging material, including laser cutting mechanism 1, the laser cutting mechanism 1 including moving assembly 11, cutting support frame 12 being arranged on the moving assembly 11 and cutting unit 13 being fixedly arranged on the cutting support frame 12;The upper end of the cutting unit 13 is provided with air duct assembly 2, and the air duct assembly 2 is fixed on the cutting support frame 12 by air duct support frame 3;The air duct assembly 2 includes main air duct unit 21 and vice air duct unit 22 arranged in sequence from top to bottom, and air port switching assembly 4 is further arranged between the main air duct unit 21 and vice air duct unit 22;The inside of the main air duct unit 21 is provided with first grid unit 5;The vice air duct unit 22 is provided with a plurality of groups of second partition plates 221 along the circumferential direction thereof, and the plurality of groups of second partition plates 221 separate the vice air duct unit 22 into a plurality of groups of first air ducts 222 and second air ducts 223, and the first air ducts 222 and the second air ducts 223 are arranged at intervals;The inside of the first air duct 222 is provided with the second grid unit 6, and the lower end of the second air duct 223 is connected with the air knife unit 7;The outside of the vice air duct unit 22 is further provided with a plurality of groups of bubble generating units 8 arranged in annular form.

[0052] In the prior art, the material surface is often deformed and heat is accumulated due to airflow turbulence during laser die cutting, which affects cutting accuracy. The traditional air duct system adopts a single cooling mode and cannot dynamically adjust airflow distribution according to working conditions, resulting in local overheating or insufficient cooling. The existing device lacks effective control over the airflow boundary layer, and small-scale turbulence easily causes laser focal point deviation, causing cutting trajectory error.

[0053] To solve the above problems, a layered air duct structure is adopted to realize functional partitioning according to different requirements of uniform cooling and local strong cooling.

[0054] Among them, the main air duct unit 21 refers to a structure with a vertical airflow channel, which can be realized by combining multiple layers of annular grid plates and vertical grid plates, for example, to straighten the initial airflow. The vice air duct unit 22 refers to a ring structure with alternating functional partitions, which can be formed by circumferentially distributed partition plates to realize differential control of airflow paths. The second partition plate 221 refers to an isolation member extending along the circumferential direction, which can be vertically installed by using an arc-shaped metal plate to form independently arranged air duct spaces. The first grid unit 5 refers to an airflow straightening device, which can also be a honeycomb metal mesh structure for eliminating large-scale vortex. The air knife unit 7 generates directional high-pressure airflow, and the bubble generating unit 8 refers to a micro-bubble generating device, which can be a ceramic nano-pore generator to disturb the airflow boundary layer by releasing micron-sized bubbles.

[0055] Specifically, the main air duct unit 21 receives the airflow from the air blower, and the airflow is first rectified by the first grid unit 5 to eliminate large-scale vortexes. When the airflow enters the secondary air duct unit 22, it is separated into a plurality of first air ducts 222 and second air ducts 223 by the second partition plate 221. The second grid unit 6 in the first air duct 222 performs secondary refinement on the airflow to form uniformly distributed cooling airflow. The second air duct 223 guides the airflow to the air knife unit 7 to form a high-pressure linear airflow for local strong cooling. The air outlet switching assembly 4 selects the communication state of the main air duct unit 21 and different secondary air ducts by adjusting the position of the through hole 411. When uniform cooling is needed, the airflow is discharged through the first air duct 222; when local strong cooling is needed, the airflow is switched to the second air duct 223 and output through the air knife unit 7. The bubble generating unit 8 arranged in a ring continuously releases microbubbles to disturb the airflow boundary layer outside the secondary air duct and suppress the influence of small-scale turbulence on the laser focal point.

[0056] Further, as shown in Figure 5 The main air duct unit 21 is internally provided with a plurality of groups of first partition plates 211 corresponding to the second partition plate 221 one by one.

[0057] The plurality of groups of first partition plates 211 divide the interior of the main air duct unit 21 into a plurality of groups of air duct passages 212, and the air duct passages 212 are correspondingly arranged with the first air ducts 222 or the second air ducts 223.

[0058] The first partition plate 211 is a plate-shaped structure extending axially along the interior of the main air duct unit 21, which can be made of stainless steel or aluminum alloy and is fixed on the inner wall of the main air duct unit 21 by welding or bolts. This structure is used to divide the main air duct unit 21 into a plurality of independent passages to ensure that the airflow path is continuously aligned with the second partition plate 221 of the secondary air duct unit 22.

[0059] The air duct passage 212 is an independent airflow passage formed by the first partition plate 211 in the interior of the main air duct unit 21. The passage with different cross-sectional areas can be formed by adjusting the distance and number of partition plates. This structure allows the airflow in the main air duct unit 21 to be distributed to the corresponding area of the secondary air duct unit 22 along the preset path, avoiding the cross interference between airflows of different functional air ducts.

[0060] Specifically, the position of the first partition plate 211 has a spatial correspondence relationship with the second partition plate 221 of the secondary air duct unit 22, so that the independent air duct passages 212 formed by the division of the primary air duct unit 21 respectively form continuous passages with the first air duct 222 or the second air duct 223 of the secondary air duct unit 22. When the airflow enters from the primary air duct unit 21, the first partition plate 211 guides the airflow to flow along the independent passage and is directly introduced into the corresponding area of the secondary air duct unit 22 through the alignment structure with the second partition plate 221. This design eliminates the airflow path misalignment at the connection between the primary and secondary air ducts, prevents local vortex and uneven pressure distribution caused by sudden change of passage cross section, and at the same time, the corresponding arrangement of the independent air duct passages 212 with the first air duct 222 or the second air duct 223 enables the airflow to be accurately distributed to the grid unit or the air knife unit 7 according to the functional requirements, avoiding interference between airflows of different cooling modes.

[0061] Further, as shown in Figure 5 The first grid unit 5 includes a plurality of groups of annularly arranged first annular grid plates 51 and a plurality of groups of first vertical grid plates 52 arranged perpendicularly to the first annular grid plates 51.

[0062] The second grid unit 6 includes a plurality of groups of annularly arranged second annular grid plates 61 and a plurality of groups of second vertical grid plates 62 arranged perpendicularly to the second annular grid plates 61.

[0063] The plurality of groups of annular grid plates and vertical grid plates divide the interior of the primary air duct unit 21 and the interior of the first air duct 222 into a plurality of ventilation holes.

[0064] The first annular grid plate 51 is a metal partition plate arranged in concentric circles around the central axis of the primary air duct, which can be formed by punching a stainless steel sheet. The annular arrangement structure can guide the airflow to diffuse uniformly in the circumferential direction. The first vertical grid plate 52 is a vertical partition plate extending radially along the primary air duct, which can be realized by cutting a stainless steel sheet or an aluminum alloy profile. The vertical arrangement can realize radial layered flow guiding of the airflow. The second annular grid plate 61 is a concentric circular flow dividing structure arranged inside the first air duct 222. The reduced annular spacing can perform secondary rectification of the airflow. The orthogonal arrangement of the second vertical grid plate 62 and the second annular grid plate can further refine the airflow path. The ventilation hole is a regular airflow passage formed by the intersecting grid, which can be realized by adjusting the grid spacing to control the aperture size.

[0065] Specifically, the main air duct unit 21 is internally formed with a multi-level grid structure through the vertical intersection of the first annular grid plate 51 and the first vertical grid plate 52, the annularly arranged grid plates constrain the airflow to be uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction, the vertically arranged grid plates force the airflow to flow in the radial direction in layers, and the orthogonal combination of the two divides the main air duct into uniformly distributed ventilation holes, effectively decomposes large-scale vortexes, and the first air duct 222 is internally formed with a secondary grid structure through the second annular grid plate 61 and the second vertical grid plate 62, the secondary rectification of the airflow that has been preliminarily processed by the main air duct is performed by the grid spacing that is reduced, and the residual turbulent energy is eliminated, and the grid systems of the main air duct and the first air duct 222 form a gradient airflow regulation mechanism, the annular grid guides the circumferential diffusion of the airflow, and the vertical grid implements axial layering, and the synergistic effect of the two causes the airflow to gradually realize laminarization transition when passing through the double-layer grid, and finally forms a stable and uniform airflow field, avoiding the material resonance effect caused by local airflow disturbance.

[0066] Further, as shown in Figure 8 the thickness of the first vertical grid plate 52 and the second vertical grid plate 62 gradually increases from top to bottom, and the hole diameter of the ventilation hole at the lower end of the main air duct unit 21 is greater than the hole diameter of the ventilation hole at the upper end of the first air duct 222.

[0067] Among them, the gradually increasing thickness of the first vertical grid plate 52 from top to bottom means that the grid plate forms a tapered flow guide channel in the vertical direction, and the linear flow of the airflow is guided by the thickness gradient change, the thickness variation rule of the second vertical grid plate 62 is the same as that of the first vertical grid plate 52, and the continuity of the airflow between the main air duct and the first air duct 222 is ensured, and the hole diameter of the ventilation hole at the lower end of the main air duct unit 21 is greater than the hole diameter of the ventilation hole at the upper end of the first air duct 222, which means that a diffusion buffer area is formed at the connection between the two air ducts, which can be specifically realized by cooperating the flared structure at the end of the main air duct with the constricted structure at the inlet of the first air duct 222, and the pressure difference generated by the difference in hole diameter is used to suppress vortex generation, and it is also convenient for the normal passage of the airflow.

[0068] Specifically, although the airflow first enters the through hole 411 from the main air duct unit 21 and then enters the first air duct 222, when the high-speed airflow in the main air duct unit 21 passes through the tapered flow guide channel, the grid plate with gradually increasing thickness forces the airflow to be laminarized, and the kinetic energy of the turbulent flow is reduced, and when the airflow enters the flared area at the end of the main air duct, the local pressure difference generated by the constricted structure at the inlet of the first air duct 222 promotes smooth transition of the airflow, avoiding sudden change of speed, and the difference in hole diameter at the connection between the two air ducts eliminates the boundary layer separation phenomenon caused by the traditional equal-diameter connection, cutting off the energy input condition required for vortex regeneration, and the stability of the airflow delivery can be ensured.

[0069] Further, as shown in Figure 6As shown, the second air duct 223 is internally provided with a connecting hole 2231 connected with the air knife unit 7.

[0070] The connecting hole 2231 can be a straight-through hole structure, and its axis is consistent with the extension direction of the second air duct 223, so as to shorten the airflow transmission path. The hole reduces the airflow resistance by reducing the bending and shunting links, thereby improving the air pressure stability of the air knife unit 7.

[0071] Further, as shown in the figure, Figures 7-9 The air port switching assembly 4 comprises:

[0072] The air port switching plate 41 is rotationally arranged between the main air duct unit 21 and the auxiliary air duct unit 22;

[0073] The outer gear ring 42 is fixedly arranged on the outer side of the air port switching plate 41;

[0074] The drive gear 43 is in transmission with the outer gear ring 42 and in transmission connection with the drive unit 44, and the drive unit 44 is fixedly arranged on the air duct support frame 3.

[0075] The air port switching plate 41 is a ring-shaped rotating component with a through hole 411, which can be realized by processing a stainless steel or aluminum alloy plate. The number of through holes 411 matches the number of air ducts. The rotation angle controls the conduction state of the air duct. The outer gear ring 42 is a gear structure fixed on the outer edge of the air port switching plate 41, which is used to transmit the rotary motion of the drive gear 43 to the air port switching plate 41. The drive gear 43 is a transmission component meshing with the outer gear ring 42, which can be driven by a servo motor or a stepper motor to realize precise angle adjustment of the air port switching plate 41.

[0076] Specifically, the air port switching plate 41 is rotationally arranged between the main air duct unit 21 and the auxiliary air duct unit 22, and the through holes 411 are distributed corresponding to the air duct passages 212. When the drive unit 44 is started, the drive gear 43 drives the outer gear ring 42 to rotate, so that the air port switching plate 41 rotates around the axis, and the through holes 411 are aligned with different air ducts through the rotating action, realizing the selective communication of the main air duct unit 21 with the first air duct 222 or the second air duct 223. The meshing transmission between the outer gear ring 42 and the drive gear 43 ensures the switching angle accuracy, avoids the air duct misalignment caused by mechanical clearance, and eliminates the structural deviation caused by vibration during transmission by fixing the drive unit 44 to the air duct support frame 3, thereby maintaining the repeated positioning accuracy of the switching action.

[0077] Further, as shown in the figure, Figure 9 The air port switching plate 41 is rotationally arranged between the main air duct unit 21 and the auxiliary air duct unit 22, and the through holes 411 are distributed corresponding to the air duct passages 212. When the drive unit 44 is started, the drive gear 43 drives the outer gear ring 42 to rotate, so that the air port switching plate 41 rotates around the axis, and the through holes 411 are aligned with different air ducts through the rotating action, realizing the selective communication of the main air duct unit 21 with the first air duct 222 or the second air duct 223. The meshing transmission between the outer gear ring 42 and the drive gear 43 ensures the switching angle accuracy, avoids the air duct misalignment caused by mechanical clearance, and eliminates the structural deviation caused by vibration during transmission by fixing the drive unit 44 to the air duct support frame 3, thereby maintaining the repeated positioning accuracy of the switching action.

[0078] The number of through holes 411 is equal to the number of first air ducts 222 or second air ducts 223.

[0079] The through hole 411 refers to an air flow passage through the air port switching plate 41, and the hole edge is provided with a chamfer or a flow guide surface to reduce air flow resistance. The through hole 411 is aligned with the axis of the air duct, ensuring the continuity of the air flow path during switching.

[0080] Specifically, when the air port switching plate 41 rotates to the target position, the axis of the through hole 411 coincides with the axis of the corresponding air duct inlet, and the air flow of the main air duct unit 21 is directly injected into the target air duct through the through hole 411. The edge of the through hole 411 forms a sealing contact surface with the air duct inlet, preventing air flow from leaking to adjacent air ducts. Since the number of through holes 411 strictly matches the number of air ducts, there is always a complete air flow passage during switching, avoiding instantaneous air flow interruption or pressure fluctuations. This structure eliminates air flow crosstalk between different air ducts during switching by physical isolation, ensuring that the instantaneous accuracy of air flow direction switching is controlled within ±0.5 millimeters.

[0081] Further, as shown in Figures 1-9 When the through hole 411 in the air port switching plate 41 is connected to the first air duct 222, the air flow sequentially passes through the main air duct unit 21, the through hole 411, and finally exits from the first air duct 222;

[0082] When the through hole 411 in the air port switching plate 41 is connected to the second air duct 223, the air flow sequentially passes through the main air duct unit 21, the through hole 411, the connecting hole 2231, and finally exits from the air knife unit 7.

[0083] Specifically, when uniform cooling is required in the conventional cutting condition, the air port switching plate 41 is rotated to align the through hole 411 with the first air duct 222, and the air flow of the main air duct unit 21 directly enters the first air duct 222 through the through hole 411. At this time, the air flow is uniformly dispersed through the grid structure, combined with the micro-bubble disturbance generated by the bubble generating unit 8, to eliminate vortex and form stable laminar flow, covering the material surface for large-area heat dissipation.

[0084] When high-precision cutting requires local intensified cooling, the air port switching plate 41 is rotated to align the through hole 411 with the second air duct 223, and the air flow enters the air knife unit 7 through the connecting hole 2231 to form a high-speed air flow beam, which precisely acts on the laser focal point area and quickly carries away high heat load.

[0085] During the switching process of the two modes, the complete connection of the through hole 411 and the air duct avoids air flow leakage, and the continuous action of the air port switching plate 41 ensures that there is no air flow interruption during the switching process.

[0086] Further, as shown in Figure 6As shown, the upper end of the second air duct 223 is provided with an inverted tapered slot 2232 at the position corresponding to the connecting hole 2231, which is in communication with the connecting hole 2231. The inverted tapered slot 2232 can be formed on the inner wall of the second air duct 223 by machining or casting process, and the taper angle range can be, for example, 15-60 degrees. This structure guides the airflow to accelerate smoothly through the tapered geometry, and reduces the fluid separation effect caused by sudden changes in cross section.

[0087] Further, as shown in the figure, Figures 7-9 The bubble ejection position in the bubble generating unit 8 is located at the lower end of the lower end surface of the first air duct 222, which can ensure that the bubbles form a disturbance layer before the airflow reaches the material surface.

[0088] Further, the laser cutting mechanism 1 is also provided with a fan device, which is in communication with the upper end of the main air duct unit 21.

[0089] The fan device is the power source for driving the airflow circulation, which can be realized by a centrifugal fan (not shown in the specific structure diagram), and its air outlet is in communication with the top of the main air duct unit 21 to form a directional airflow path. This device ensures the stability of the pressure gradient in the main and auxiliary air ducts by forced airflow circulation.

[0090] Working process:

[0091] Place and fix the adhesive tape packaging material to be cut on the work station, and set the laser parameters and cutting conditions in the control system;

[0092] Start the fan device, and make the fan device output airflow to the main air duct unit 21. The first grid unit 5 in the main air duct unit 21 performs primary rectification on the airflow to eliminate large-scale vortex. The airflow is guided by the first partition plate 211 to the corresponding first air duct 222 or second air duct 223 inlet direction according to the preset distribution;

[0093] According to the control system setting (uniform cooling or local strong cooling), the driving unit 44 drives the air outlet switching plate 41 of the air outlet switching assembly 4 to rotate to a predetermined angle. The air outlet switching plate 41 makes the through hole 411 on it aligned with the target first air duct 222 or second air duct 223, so as to select the output path of the airflow;

[0094] Mode A, when the air port switching plate 41 of the air port switching assembly 4 is rotated to align the through hole 411 with the first air duct 222, the airflow is sequentially discharged from the main air duct unit 21, the through hole 411, and finally from the first air duct 222, the airflow is further refined by the second grid unit 6 after entering the first air duct 222, forming a uniformly distributed cooling airflow, the micron-sized bubbles released by the bubble generating unit 8 at the lower end of the first air duct 222 end face, the micro-bubbles disturb and homogenize the airflow, the airflow further eliminates residual vortices and forms a stable laminar flow, covering the material surface for large-area heat dissipation, under the above uniform cooling conditions, the laser cutting mechanism 1 is started to work;

[0095] Mode B, when the air port switching plate 41 of the air port switching assembly 4 is rotated to align the through hole 411 with the second air duct 223, the airflow is sequentially discharged from the main air duct unit 21, the through hole 411, the connecting hole 2231, and finally from the air knife unit 7, the airflow enters the air knife unit 7 connected through the connecting hole 2231, the air knife unit 7 generates directional high-pressure airflow, the second air duct 223 guides the airflow to the air knife unit 7, forming a high-pressure linear airflow for local strong cooling, the high-speed airflow beam output by the air knife unit 7 precisely acts on the laser focal point area of the laser cutting mechanism 1 or the local area of the material being cut, quickly taking away the high heat load, thereby realizing local intensive cooling and reducing local thermal deformation during laser cutting.
