TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of building construction equipment, and in particular to a ceramic tile cutting machine. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the current field of interior decoration and building construction, a ceramic tile cutting machine is an essential tool. The current mainstream manual or semi-automatic push-pull ceramic tile cutting machine is usually composed of a base, a guide rail, a sliding seat with a cutting wheel, and a push-pull handle.

[0003] In the process of cutting using the existing ceramic tile cutting machine, especially when marking and cutting the ceramic tile with a glazed surface or special texture, hard dust and sharp debris generated by the previous process or environment, although small, often accumulate on the path of the ceramic tile to be cut.

[0004] When the operator pushes the cutting machine head to slide and mark, if the cutting wheel happens to roll over the hard particles adsorbed by static electricity or naturally scattered, the cutting wheel will jump or slide slightly in an instant, which not only causes the cutting line to be not straight, but also causes the ceramic tile to break along the wrong crack in the subsequent breaking process, which greatly affects the yield and joint accuracy of the ceramic tile cutting.

[0005] The existing solution often requires manual wiping before each cutting, which is extremely inefficient and easy to forget. SUMMARY

[0006] To solve the above problems, the present application provides a ceramic tile cutting machine.

[0010] Optionally, the cutting assembly comprises a shell movably connected to the sliding frame, a cutter is rotatably connected to the lower end of the shell, an electric motor one is arranged outside the shell, the output shaft of the electric motor one is coaxially fixed with the cutter, and the cutter is driven to rotate.

[0011] Optionally, the sliding frame is further horizontally slidably connected with a moving frame, and the shell is vertically slidably connected to the moving frame.

[0012] Optionally, the upper end of the sliding frame is provided with an operating handle, the operating handle is obliquely arranged and extends away from the cleaning part.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The application will be further described in detail below with reference to all the accompanying drawings.

[0024] The application discloses a ceramic tile cutting machine.

[0025] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 ​A ceramic tile cutting machine comprises a base platform 1. The base platform 1, as the supporting base of the whole device, is required to have sufficient strength and stability, and is preferably made of HT grey cast iron or welded steel structure, and the upper surface thereof is processed flat and provided with a placing groove 12 for stably placing the ceramic tile 100 to be cut. A layer of rubber non-slip pad can be attached to the surface of the placing groove 12 to prevent the ceramic tile 100 from being displaced under the action of the cutting force.

[0026] Parallel slide rails 2, i.e. rail one 21 and rail two 22, are fixed on both sides of the base platform 1 in the length direction (i.e. the X-axis direction) by bolts. In order to ensure smooth sliding and corrosion resistance, the slide rails 2 are preferably linear guide rails. A gantry sliding frame 3 is arranged above the rail one 21 and the rail two 22 and slides on the two slide rails 2.

[0027] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 A rack 213 is welded or bolted to the inner side vertical surface of the rail one 21 facing the rail two 22 along the length direction of the rail one 21. A short shaft is rotatably installed at the lower end of the sliding frame 3 close to the rail one 21, and a gear 31 is keyed connected to the short shaft. When the sliding frame 3 moves, the gear 31 meshes with the rack 213, and the gear 31 generates rotary motion. A bevel gear one 32 is coaxially fixed below the gear 31.

[0028] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 4 A sliding groove 23 is provided on the side of the rail one 21 and the rail two 22 close to each other, and a sliding block 24 is arranged in the sliding groove 23. A rotating shaft 25 is rotatably connected between the two sliding blocks 24, and the height of the rotating shaft 25 is higher than the surface of the ceramic tile 100. A bevel gear two 33 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 25, and the bevel gear one 32 and the bevel gear two 33 mesh with each other.

[0029] The part of the rotating shaft 25 above the ceramic tile 100 is provided as a cleaning part 26, and a plurality of rows of bristles 261 are arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the cleaning part 26. A long strip-shaped baffle one 27 is vertically fixed between the rail one 21 and the placing groove 12.

[0030] Connection holes 211 are provided at the upper end of the slide rails 2, and two connecting plates 212 are provided at the lower end of the sliding frame 3. The connecting plates 212 correspond to the sliding blocks 24 one by one, and the connecting plates 212 are fixedly connected to the corresponding sliding blocks 24 by penetrating the connection holes 211.

[0031] The baffle one 27 shields the rack 213 from the range of cutting chip splashing. A long hole 271 is provided on the baffle one 27 along the length direction, and the rotating shaft 25 penetrates through the long hole 271.

[0032] A baffle plate 34 is fixed to the bottom of the sliding frame 3 and is located between the baffle plate 27 and the rail 21. A circular hole is formed in the baffle plate 34 to accommodate the bearing of the rotating shaft 25.

[0033] With reference to Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 The lower end of the sliding frame 3 is slidably connected to a moving frame 353, and a recess 38 is formed in the lower end of the sliding frame 3. A motor 381 is arranged in the recess 38, and a threaded rod 382 is rotatably connected to the sliding frame 3 and coaxially fixed to the output shaft of the motor 381. The motor 381 drives the threaded rod 382 to rotate, and the moving frame 353 is sleeved on the threaded rod 382 by a nut, so as to realize automatic feeding and positioning of the cutting assembly in the Y-axis direction.

[0034] The cutting assembly comprises a housing 35 movably connected to the sliding frame 3, and a set of vertical guide rails are arranged on the moving frame 353, and the housing 35 slides on the vertical guide rails. A motor 37 is fixed to the top of the moving frame 353, and a threaded rod 371 is coaxially fixed to the output shaft of the motor 37. The housing 35 is threadedly connected with the threaded rod 371, and the housing 35 cooperates with the threaded rod 371 to realize Z-axis lifting by rotating the output shaft of the motor 37. A motor 352 is installed on the housing 35, and the output shaft of the motor 352 extends out of the housing 35 and is provided with a cutter 351. In addition, in order to further protect the transmission mechanism, a baffle plate 36 can be arranged between the cutter 351 and the cleaning part 26 below the sliding frame 3, which can reduce the splashing of debris during cutting of the ceramic tile 100, and also reduce the splashing of debris cleaned by the cleaning part 26 to the lower side of the cutter 351, thereby improving the cutting effect of the ceramic tile 100.

[0035] In order to facilitate manual assistance, an operating handle 4 is fixed to the top of the sliding frame 3 by bolts. The operating handle 4 is inclined and extends away from the cleaning part 26, and the surface is covered with a rubber non-slip layer.

[0036] Principle of implementation: Before starting work, the ceramic tile 100 is placed in the placing groove 12. The operator adjusts the cutter 351 to the appropriate cutting position and depth by operating the motor 37 and the motor 381 through the control panel. Then, the motor 352 is started to make the cutter 351 rotate at high speed; the operator holds the operating handle 4 and pushes the sliding frame 3 forward (or the driving mechanism can be driven).

[0037] Meanwhile, the linear displacement of the sliding frame 3 rotates the gear 31 engaged with the rack 213. The rotation torque is transmitted to the bevel gear two 33 through the bevel gear one 32, driving the rotating shaft 25 and the cleaning part 26 to rotate at high speed. According to the installation direction of the bevel gear two, the rotating direction of the cleaning part 26 is set to be outwardly projected. Since the cleaning part 26 is located in front of (or immediately adjacent to) the cutter 351, the rotating bristles 261 will sweep the dust accumulated on the cutting line to the direction away from the cutter 351. The baffle one 27 and the baffle two 34 closely cooperate in the whole stroke to isolate the dust. Throughout the process, the cleaning action is synchronized with the cutting action. During the advancement of the sliding frame 3, the cutter 351 cuts into the ceramic tile 100. At this time, the ceramic tile 100 cut by the cutter 351 is the ceramic tile 100 cleaned by the cleaning part 26, ensuring that the cutter 351 works on a smooth and clean surface, improving the cutting quality, and further improving the yield of the ceramic tile 100 cutting.

[0038] The above are preferred embodiments of the present application, which do not limit the protection scope of the present application. Any equivalent changes made on the basis of the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be covered by the protection scope of the present application.
