Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of laser cutting technology, and specifically to a continuous laser cutting device and method. Background Technology

[0002] Track shoes are chassis components of construction machinery and are considered wear parts. They are commonly used in construction machinery such as excavators, bulldozers, crawler cranes, and pavers.

[0003] Chinese patent CN221620951U discloses a cutting device for processing track plates, including a processing base, a gantry frame fixedly connected to the upper side of the processing base, a cutting assembly assembled and connected to the middle of the gantry frame, and positioning assemblies assembled and connected to both sides of the cutting assembly. The positioning assembly includes a connecting plate with a clearance groove in the middle. Two electric push cylinders are symmetrically arranged and mounted above the connecting plate, with their upper ends fixedly connected to the gantry frame. Four buffer assemblies are symmetrically arranged and mounted below the connecting plate, with a positioning plate fixedly connected below each buffer assembly. However, this device still has the following problems during use: Due to the special configuration of the track plates, when storing them, the track plates with the ribs facing down need to be placed on top of the track plates with the ribs facing up to achieve stacking. At this time, the track plates of different layers will have different orientations. When laser cutting is required, the track plates need to be manually flipped to a uniform orientation with the ribs facing up for laser cutting.

[0013] Example 1: In some embodiments, please refer to the accompanying drawings. Figures 1-8A continuous laser cutting device and method thereof, including a loading robot 1 and a unloading robot 2, and also including a chain conveyor 3, a transition and reversing material transfer mechanism 4, a receiving mechanism 5, a cutting mechanism, a material distribution mechanism 9, a first unloading plate 11 and a second unloading plate 12; The loading robot 1 and the unloading robot 2 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the chain conveyor 3; The first feeding plate 11 is located on the right side of the feeding robot 1; the second feeding plate 12 is located on the left side of the unloading robot 2; the first feeding plate 11 is used to stack the track plates after stamping and forming; the second feeding plate 12 is used to stack the track plates after laser cutting. The chain conveyor 3 is provided with a loading station, a cutting station and a unloading station from left to right; Multiple sets of receiving mechanisms 5 for supporting and positioning the track plates 10 are installed at equal intervals on the moving end of the chain conveyor 3. The track ribs 101 on the track plate 10 face upward, the raceway surface 102 faces downward, and the second assembly arc 106 faces to the right, which is set as the standard cutting position. When the track ribs 101 on the track plate 10 face downwards, the raceway surface 102 faces upwards, and the second assembly arc 106 faces to the left, it is set as a stacking support position. The state of the track plate 10 when it separates from the first feeding plate 11 is set as the initial feeding posture; The left and right sides of the chain conveyor 3 are equipped with transition reversing and material transfer mechanisms 4 for controlling the movement and flipping of the track plates 10; like Figure 1 As shown, the transition reversing material transfer mechanism 4 includes a first reversing transition component that enables the track plate 10 to be laser-cut at a standard cutting position and a second reversing transition component for controlling the track plate 10 to be unloaded in an initial loading posture after cutting; the loading transition component and the unloading transition component are symmetrically distributed and installed on the left and right sides of the chain conveyor 3. The cutting mechanism is located at the cutting station; A material distribution mechanism 9 for collecting cutting waste is installed in the middle of the chain conveyor 3; The loading robot 1 is equipped with a camera for monitoring the initial loading posture of the track plate 10; In this invention, track plates 10 of the stacked support position are placed above track plates 10 of the standard cutting position as a group and are stacked sequentially from bottom to top on the upper end of the first feeding plate 11; and the first assembly arc 105 and the second assembly arc 106 of adjacent track plates 10 at the same height are in contact. When the laser cutting operation begins, the loading robot 1 moves the track plates 10 stacked on the first feeding plate 11 from top to bottom to the first reversing transition assembly; then the first reversing transition assembly fixes the track plates 10. If the track plate 10 is in the standard cutting position, the first reversing transition component will drive the track plate 10 to move to the right to the loading station and place the track plate 10 on the receiving mechanism 5 in the loading station. If the track plate 10 is a stacked support position, the first reversing transition component will first work to drive the track plate 10 to rotate 180 degrees, so that the track plate 10 is transformed into a standard cutting position. Then the above operation is repeated to place the track plate 10 on the receiving mechanism 5 of the loading station. Subsequently, the chain conveyor 3 drives the track plate 10 to the cutting station through the receiving mechanism 5. Then, the cutting mechanism works to cut the first processing hole 103 and the second processing hole 104 of the track plate 10. The waste generated during cutting will fall down to the material distribution mechanism 9 to achieve automatic waste collection. After the cutting and shaping are completed, the chain conveyor 3 continues to work, driving the track plate 10 to move to the right to the unloading station; If the initial loading posture of the track plate 10 is the standard cutting position, the unloading transition component will work to move the track plate 10 out of the receiving mechanism 5 and drive the track plate 10 to move to the right. Then the unloading robot 2 will work to fix the track plate 10 and place the track plate 10 on the first unloading plate 11. If the initial loading posture of the track plate 10 is the stacked support position, the unloading transition component will work to move the track plate 10 out of the receiving mechanism 5, and then drive the track plate 10 to rotate 180 degrees again, so that the track plate 10 changes from the standard cutting position to the stacked support position. Then the unloading robot 2 will work to fix the track plate 10 and place the track plate 10 above the track plate 10 in the standard cutting position. By repeating the above operation, continuous cutting of the track plate 10 can be achieved. Through the cooperation of the first reversing transition component and the second reversing transition component, the device can control the movement of the track plate 10 according to the initial loading posture of the track plate 10, ensuring that the track plate 10 always enters the cutting station in the standard cutting position, thus ensuring the cutting quality; and after the cutting operation is completed, it can automatically restore the track plate 10 to the initial loading posture for unloading and stacking, reducing the extra workload of manual intervention for stacking materials.

The gantry 41 of the first reversing transition assembly is located on the left side of the chain conveyor 3; The gantry 41 of the second reversing transition assembly is located on the right side of the chain conveyor 3; A double-acting linear module 42 is fixedly installed at one end of the gantry 41 of the first reversing transition assembly and the gantry 41 of the second reversing transition assembly, close to each other. A vertical linear module 43 is fixedly installed on each of the two moving ends of the double-acting linear module 42; A horizontal linear module 44 is fixedly installed at the moving end of the vertical linear module 43; An L-shaped fixing plate 45 is fixedly installed at the moving end of the horizontal linear module 44; A drive motor 47 is fixedly installed at one end of the two L-shaped fixing plates 45 that are far apart; a rotating disk 46 is rotatably installed at one end of the two L-shaped fixing plates 45 that are close together. The output end of the drive motor 47 is fixedly connected to the rotating disk 46; Fixed receiving plates 48 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the lower left and right sides of the rotating disk 46; A dual-shaft pusher cylinder 49 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the rotating disk 46 by a bracket; a movable receiving plate 410 is fixedly installed at the output end of the dual-shaft pusher cylinder 49. like Figure 7 As shown, the receiving mechanism 5 includes a moving plate 51 and a limiting baffle 53; the moving plate 51 is fixedly installed on the moving end of the chain conveyor 3; the upper end of the moving plate 51 is provided with a contour mounting groove 52 that engages with the track plate 10; the limiting baffles 53 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the moving plate 51. A material feeding relief groove 54 is provided at the upper middle part of the movable plate 51; a second forming part relief groove 56 is provided on the right side of the movable plate 51; and a first forming part relief groove 55 is provided on the lower side of the material feeding relief groove 54. like Figure 5 As shown, the material distribution mechanism 9 includes a feeding inclined plate 92 and a waste bin 93; the chain conveyor 3 has symmetrical feeding mounting slots 91 on the middle of the front and rear sides of its frame; The feeding ramp 92 is inclined downwards; and the rear side of the feeding ramp 92 is fixedly connected to the rear feeding mounting groove 91; the front side of the feeding ramp 92 is fixedly connected to the front feeding mounting groove 91. The waste bin 93 is located below the front side of the discharge ramp 92; like Figure 1 As shown, the cutting mechanism includes a fixed frame 6, an XYZ three-axis moving module 7, and a laser cutter 8; the XYZ three-axis moving module 7 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixed frame 6; the laser cutter 8 is fixedly installed on the Y-axis moving end of the XYZ three-axis moving module 7. The laser cutting machine 8 adopts mature technology in the industry; In this invention, when the laser cutting operation begins, the loading robot 1 moves the track plates 10 stacked on the first feeding plate 11 from top to bottom to the fixed receiving plate 48 on the first reversing transition assembly; then the double-moving linear module 42 of the first reversing transition assembly drives the two vertical linear modules 43 to move in a direction closer to each other, so that the L-shaped fixed plate 45 moves synchronously with the horizontal linear module 44. During the movement, the two fixed receiving plates 48 move along the track plates 10 in a direction closer to each other until the two movable receiving plates 410 have moved to the front and rear sides above the track plates 10. Subsequently, the dual-axis push cylinder 49 operates to drive the movable receiving plate 410 to move downward until the movable receiving plate 410 abuts against the upper end of the track plate 10; the fixed receiving plate 48 abuts against the lower end of the track plate 10, thus completing the fixing of the track plate 10. At this time, if the track plate 10 is in the standard cutting position, the horizontal linear module 44 of the first reversing transition component works to move the track plate 10 to the right to the loading station. Then the vertical linear module 43 works to move the track plate 10 downward until the fixed receiving plate 48 moves into the material release groove 54. At this time, the lower end of the track plate 10 moves onto the contour mounting groove 52, and the front and rear ends of the track plate 10 are limited by the limiting baffle 53. Subsequently, the dual-axis push cylinder 49 drives the movable receiving plate 410 to reset upwards, and the dual-actuator linear module 42 drives the two front and rear vertical linear modules 43 to reset, completing the transfer of the track plate 10; then the transverse linear module 44 works to drive the fixed receiving plate 48 and the movable receiving plate 410 to reset to the left to receive the next track plate 10. If the track plate 10 is a stacked support position, the drive motor 47 of the first reversing transition component first works to drive the rotating disk 46 to rotate, causing the track plate 10 to rotate 180 degrees, so that the track plate 10 is transformed into a standard cutting position. Then the above operation is repeated until the movable receiving plate 410 moves into the material feeding clearance groove 54. Then the dual-axis push cylinder 49 drives the movable receiving plate 410 to move downward, releasing the clamp on the track plate 10, and placing the track plate 10 into the moving plate 51 of the loading station. Subsequently, the chain conveyor 3 drives the track plate 10 to the cutting station via the moving plate 51. Then, the XYZ three-axis moving module 7 drives the laser cutting machine 8 to move and cut the first processing hole 103 and the second processing hole 104 of the track plate 10. The waste generated during cutting will fall down onto the unloading inclined plate 92 and slide forward along the unloading inclined plate 92 into the waste bin 93, realizing automatic waste collection. After the cutting and shaping are completed, the chain conveyor 3 continues to work, driving the track plate 10 to move to the right to the unloading station; If the initial loading posture of the track plate 10 is the standard cutting position, the movable receiving plate 410 and the fixed receiving plate 48 of the unloading transition assembly will work to move the track plate 10 out of the contour mounting groove 52 and drive the track plate 10 to move to the right. Then the unloading robot 2 will work to fix the track plate 10 and place the track plate 10 on the first unloading plate 11. If the initial loading posture of the track plate 10 is the stacked support position, the movable receiving plate 410 and the fixed receiving plate 48 of the unloading transition component will move the track plate 10 out of the contour mounting groove 52 and drive the track plate 10 to move to the right. Then the drive motor 47 of the unloading transition component will drive the track plate 10 to rotate 180 degrees again, so that the track plate 10 changes from the standard cutting position to the stacked support position. Then the unloading robot 2 will fix the track plate 10 and place the track plate 10 above the track plate 10 in the standard cutting position. By repeating the above operation, continuous cutting of the track plate 10 can be achieved.

[0015] Example 3: In some embodiments, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a continuous laser cutting method includes the following steps: Step 1: The loading robot 1 moves the track plates 10 stacked on the first feeding plate 11 from top to bottom to the first reversing transition assembly; then the first reversing transition assembly fixes the track plates 10. Step 2: If the track plate 10 is in the standard cutting position, the first reversing transition component will drive the track plate 10 to move to the right to the loading station and place the track plate 10 on the receiving mechanism 5 in the loading station. If the track plate 10 is a stacked support position, the first reversing transition component will first work to drive the track plate 10 to rotate 180 degrees, so that the track plate 10 is transformed into a standard cutting position. Then the above operation is repeated to place the track plate 10 on the receiving mechanism 5 of the loading station. Step 3: The chain conveyor 3 drives the track plate 10 to the cutting station through the receiving mechanism 5. Then the cutting mechanism works to cut the first processing hole 103 and the second processing hole 104 of the track plate 10. The waste generated during cutting will fall down to the material distribution mechanism 9 to achieve automatic waste collection. After the cutting and shaping are completed, the chain conveyor 3 continues to work, driving the track plate 10 to move to the right to the unloading station; Step 4: If the initial loading posture of the track plate 10 is the standard cutting position, the unloading transition component will work to move the track plate 10 out of the receiving mechanism 5 and drive the track plate 10 to move to the right. Then the unloading robot 2 will work to fix the track plate 10 and place the track plate 10 on the first unloading plate 11. If the initial loading posture of the track plate 10 is the stacked support position, the unloading transition component will work to move the track plate 10 out of the receiving mechanism 5, and then drive the track plate 10 to rotate 180 degrees again, so that the track plate 10 changes from the standard cutting position to the stacked support position. Then the unloading robot 2 will work to fix the track plate 10 and place the track plate 10 above the track plate 10 in the standard cutting position.

10. A continuous laser cutting method, utilizing the continuous laser cutting equipment as described in claim 2, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: Step 1: The loading robot (1) moves the track plates (10) stacked on the first feeding plate (11) from top to bottom to the first reversing transition assembly; then the first reversing transition assembly fixes the track plates (10); Step 2: If the track plate (10) is in the standard cutting position, the first reversing transition component will drive the track plate (10) to move to the right to the loading station and place the track plate (10) on the receiving mechanism (5) in the loading station. If the track plate (10) is a stacked support position, the first reversing transition component will first work to drive the track plate (10) to rotate 180 degrees, so that the track plate (10) is transformed into a standard cutting position. Then the above operation is repeated to place the track plate (10) on the receiving mechanism (5) of the loading station. Step 3: The chain conveyor (3) drives the track plate (10) to the cutting station through the receiving mechanism (5). Then the cutting mechanism works to cut the first processing hole (103) and the second processing hole (104) of the track plate (10). The waste generated during cutting will fall down to the material distribution mechanism (9) to achieve automatic waste collection. After the cutting and shaping are completed, the chain conveyor (3) continues to work, driving the track plate (10) to move to the right to the unloading station; Step 4: If the initial loading posture of the track plate (10) is the standard cutting position, the unloading transition component will work to move the track plate (10) off the receiving mechanism (5) and drive the track plate (10) to move to the right. Then the unloading robot (2) will work to fix the track plate (10) and place the track plate (10) on the first unloading plate (11). If the initial loading posture of the track plate (10) is the stacked support position, the unloading transition component will work to move the track plate (10) off the receiving mechanism (5), and then drive the track plate (10) to rotate 180 degrees again, so that the track plate (10) changes from the standard cutting position to the stacked support position. Then the unloading robot (2) works to fix the track plate (10) and place the track plate (10) above the track plate (10) in the standard cutting position.
