[0027] The application will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. These drawings are all simplified schematic diagrams, and only illustrate the basic structure of the application in a schematic manner, and thus only show the components related to the application.

[0028] In the description of the application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected", "connected" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be mechanically connected, or electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0029] Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 An electric circular saw with an optical tracking device is shown in the drawings, which comprises an electric circular saw body 1, an arc-shaped protective cover 2 is elastically mounted on the side wall of the electric circular saw body 1, an electrically-controlled optical tracking probe 3 is mounted on the outer arc surface of the arc-shaped protective cover 2, a side-hung dust collection bin 4 is mounted on the outer wall of the arc-shaped protective cover 2, and a centrally-integrated pump 5 is mounted on the side-hung dust collection bin 4.

[0030] Working principle: the middle integrated pump 5 is driven by a turbine fan, which is fixed outside the side-hung dust bin 4 and discharges waste gas through a lateral exhaust port. The waste residue drawn into the side-hung dust bin 4 is blocked inside the side-hung dust bin 4 by the filter screen.

[0031] To match the lateral assembly, an annular assembly groove is formed on the side wall of the electric circular saw body 1, and a lateral assembly ring 6 is elastically assembled inside the annular assembly groove. The arc-shaped protective cover 2 is fixedly assembled with the lateral assembly ring 6 through bolts.

[0032] The lateral assembly ring 6 is elastically assembled with the annular assembly groove through a torsion spring inside the annular assembly groove. When the electric circular saw body 1 is cutting, the flying debris will be guided into the arc-shaped protective cover 2. As the arc-shaped protective cover 2 guides the material upward, the generated extrusion force will drive the lateral assembly ring 6 to rotate for a short distance. When the impact force decreases, the torsion spring drives the lateral assembly ring 6 and the arc-shaped protective cover 2 to rebound, thereby generating vibration to shake off and separate the arc-shaped protective cover 2, so as to be conveniently drawn into the side-hung dust bin 4 inside the arc-shaped protective cover 2 through the opening on the side wall of the arc-shaped protective cover 2.

[0033] To match the assembly, an outwardly protruding lateral mounting frame 7 is fixed on the outer arc surface of the arc-shaped protective cover 2, and the side-hung dust bin 4 is fixedly mounted outside the lateral mounting frame 7.

[0034] To improve the adjustment guiding property, an arc-shaped adjustment guide rail 8 for mounting the electrically controlled optical tracking probe 3 is fixedly assembled on the side wall of the lateral mounting frame 7.

[0035] The side-hung dust bin 4 and the arc-shaped adjustment guide rail 8 are respectively fixed on both sides of the lateral mounting frame 7.

[0036] An arc-shaped tooth groove is formed on the inner wall of the arc-shaped adjustment guide rail 8.

[0037] To match the electrically controlled adjustment, the electrically controlled optical tracking probe 3 includes a side-hung adjustment sliding block 31 slidingly assembled inside the arc-shaped adjustment guide rail 8, an external boss 32 fixed outside the side-hung adjustment sliding block 31, a flip adjustment box 33 movably sleeved on the external boss 32, an optical emission module 34 and an optical monitoring probe 35 fixed inside the flip adjustment box 33, a worm gear drive unit 36 mounted inside the side-hung adjustment sliding block 31, and an angle adjustment unit 37 mounted inside the external boss 32.

[0038] The worm gear drive unit 36 includes an inner drive gear mounted on the side-hung adjustment sliding block 31 and engaged with the arc-shaped tooth groove, an inner drive worm fixed coaxially with the inner drive gear, and an electrically controlled worm engaged with the inner drive worm. The electrically controlled worm drives the inner drive worm, thereby driving the inner drive gear to rotate, and thereby driving the side-hung adjustment sliding block 31 to move along the arc-shaped tooth groove inside the arc-shaped adjustment guide rail 8.

[0039] The angle adjusting unit 37 includes an internal adjusting motor fixed inside the external boss 32 and an external adjusting gear axially fixed on the adjusting shaft at the end of the internal adjusting motor. The flip adjusting box 33 is assembled on the wall of the face, and an annular adjusting gear slot is arranged on the wall of the face. The external adjusting gear is engaged with the annular adjusting gear slot. The internal adjusting motor drives the flip adjusting box 33 to flip by controlling the rotation of the external adjusting gear.

[0040] In the initial operation, the side-hung adjusting slider 31 drives the flip adjusting box 33 to move to the front end of the arc-shaped protective shell 2, and the flip adjusting box 33 flips forward. At this time, the optical emission module 34 emits a laser line downward, and the optical monitoring probe 35 compares the positions of the laser line and the mark line to confirm whether the cutting direction of the electric circular saw is accurate through video comparison. When cutting a distance, the length exceeds the mark line, at this time, the side-hung adjusting slider 31 drives the flip adjusting box 33 to move to the rear end of the arc-shaped protective shell 2, and the flip adjusting box 33 flips backward. At this time, the optical emission module 34 emits a laser line downward to the cutting opening, and the optical monitoring probe 35 compares the position of the laser line. If the laser line passes through the cutting opening, no light spot will be generated on both sides of the cutting opening. At this time, it indicates that the angle is accurate.

[0041] When the position is found to be skewed, the angle of the electric circular saw is actively corrected to keep the angle consistent.

[0042] In order to improve the bottom support force and avoid the flying debris from flying outward, the bottom support frame 9 is fixedly assembled at the bottom of the electric circular saw body 1. The upper surface of the bottom support frame 9 is provided with an arc-shaped barrier plate 10 upwardly protruding corresponding to both sides of the arc-shaped protective shell 2.

[0043] The bottom support frame 9 is internally provided with an opening matched with the circular saw of the electric circular saw body 1.

[0044] In order to cooperate with the bottom installation, the bottom flip adjusting frame 11 is movably assembled at the lower end of the bottom support frame 9. The bottom flip adjusting frame 11 is internally provided with a strip-shaped transmission frame 12 upwardly protruding.

[0045] The bottom support frame 9 is movably assembled with the bottom flip adjusting frame 11 through the shaft assembled at one side of the lower end.

[0046] In order to cooperate with the driving translation and angle correction, the strip-shaped transmission frame 12 is movably assembled with the electric control track 13 controlled by the optical monitoring probe 35.

[0047] The electric control track 13 is installed in the strip-shaped transmission frame 12 on both sides of the bottom flip adjusting frame 11. The electric control track 13 drives the entire bottom flip adjusting frame 11 and the bottom support frame 9 to translate or adjust by rotating.

[0048] When the two sides of the electrically controlled track 13 are synchronized and run in the same direction, the bottom overturning adjustment frame 11 and the bottom supporting frame 9 drive the electric circular saw body 1 to translate; and when the two sides of the electrically controlled track 13 are synchronized and run in opposite directions, the bottom overturning adjustment frame 11 and the bottom supporting frame 9 drive the electric circular saw body 1 to adjust the angle.

[0049] In order to cooperate with the installation and transition, the bottom supporting frame 9 is internally provided with a strip-shaped gap matched with the strip-shaped transmission frame 12.

[0050] When the bottom supporting frame 9 is overturned and attached to the upper end of the bottom overturning adjustment frame 11, the strip-shaped gap is sleeved outside the strip-shaped transmission frame 12, so that the bottom supporting frame 9 can be overturned and attached to the upper surface of the bottom overturning adjustment frame 11.

[0051] In order to facilitate the lifting operation stability, the electric circular saw body 1 is provided with a control handle 14 at the upper end.

[0052] People control the electric circular saw body 1 by holding the control handle 14.

[0053] 1. Comparison method of optical monitoring probe

[0054] The comparison of the electrically controlled optical tracking probe is realized through three steps of “laser emission-image acquisition-algorithm analysis”:

[0055] Laser emission: the optical emission module 34 emits a 650nm red laser line (power 5mW), aligns the workpiece mark line before cutting, and aligns the cutting opening during cutting;

[0056] Image acquisition: the optical monitoring probe 35 adopts a 1000 pixel CMOS sensor, and acquires 20 frames of images per second to capture the relative position of the laser line and the mark line / cutting opening;

[0057] Algorithm analysis: the probe is provided with an MCU processor, which runs an “edge detection algorithm”, extracts the profile of the laser line and the mark line / cutting opening, calculates the offset (accuracy ±0.1mm), and triggers the calibration signal if the offset is greater than 0.1mm.

[0058] 2. Implementation method of video comparison

[0059] The video comparison relies on the “real-time image storage+frame comparison” technology:

[0060] Storage: the probe is provided with an 8GB flash memory to store the acquired image frames in real time;

[0061] Contrast: the processor compares the current frame with the "standard frame" (laser alignment line frame before cutting), if the coincidence of the laser line and the alignment line is <95%, it is determined to be abnormal; if the laser line does not "completely pass through the cutting port" during cutting, it is determined to be angle deviation.

[0062] 3. The way of controlling the track by the optical monitoring probe

[0063] The probe controls the electric track 13 through "signal transmission-driving adjustment", the specific logic is as follows:

[0064] Signal transmission: the probe transmits the offset signal (electrical signal) to the electric circular saw main control board through the CAN bus;

[0065] Driving adjustment: the main control board controls the track driving motor in the bar-shaped transmission frame 12 according to the offset direction (left offset / right offset), when left offset, the right track speed is increased by 10% and the left track speed is decreased by 10%, realizing right calibration; when right offset, vice versa; if translation is needed, the tracks on both sides run at the same speed of 500 rpm.

[0066] With the above ideal embodiments according to the present application as inspiration, through the above description, relevant staff can make various changes and modifications without deviating from the scope of the technical idea of the present application. The technical scope of the present application is not limited to the contents in the specification, and must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
