Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of laser cladding technology, and specifically relates to a multifunctional laser cladding glove box device. Background Technology

[0002] Laser cladding is a novel surface modification technology. It involves adding a cladding material to the surface of a substrate and then using a high-energy-density laser beam to fuse the material with a thin layer on the substrate surface, forming a metallurgically bonded cladding layer. A vacuum glove box is a laboratory device that fills the chamber with high-purity inert gas and circulates and filters out reactive substances. It is also called a glove box, inert gas protection chamber, or dry chamber. Performing laser cladding operations within a glove box avoids interference from air.

[0003] However, existing glove boxes typically have a transparent front panel, and the strong light generated during laser cladding may harm the operator. At the same time, during the laser cladding process, dust and other impurities may be generated and adhere to the transparent panel, thus interfering with the operator's vision. Furthermore, since the glove, i.e. the user's operating position, is fixed during use, it may be difficult for the operator to reach all areas inside the box, which may cause inconvenience.

[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides a multifunctional laser cladding glove box device, including a glove box 1. A shielding structure 2 is provided on the side of the glove box 1, and a fixing structure 3 connects the shielding structure 2 to the glove box 1. A cleaning structure 5 is provided on the inner side of the glove box 1, and an adjustment structure 4 is provided in the middle of the glove box 1. In this embodiment, the shielding structure 2 on the side of the glove box 1, connected to the glove box 1 by a fixing structure, can shield strong light during the laser cladding process, protecting the operator. The fixing structure 3 can fix the extended shielding plate, facilitating laser cladding operations.

[0032] Please see Figures 1 to 9As shown, the shielding structure 2 specifically includes a transparent plate 203. The transparent plate 203 is fixedly connected to the side of the glove box 1. A sealed glove 202 is mounted on the transparent plate 203. A storage box 201 is fixedly connected to the side of the glove box 1. A winding shaft 205 is rotatably connected to the middle of the storage box 201. A torsion spring 206 is fixedly connected between the winding shaft 205 and the storage box 201. A shielding plate 204 is fixedly connected to the side of the winding shaft 205. A first cleaning rod 207 is fixedly connected to the side of the storage box 201. A second cleaning rod 208 is provided on the side of the first cleaning rod 207. A first spring 209 is fixedly connected between the second cleaning rod 208 and the storage box 201. The shielding plate 204 is located between the first cleaning rod 207 and the second cleaning rod 208. The shielding structure 2 can shield the strong light during the laser cladding process, protecting the operator.

[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, firstly, a shielding plate 204 is stored in the storage box 201 located on the side of the glove box 1 via a retractor 205. The shielding plate 204 is made of dark-colored filter material. During the laser cladding process, in order to avoid strong light from causing harm to the operator, the operator can pull out the shielding plate 204 to cover the surface of the transparent plate 203, thereby ensuring observation while avoiding strong light stimulation. At the same time, a first cleaning rod 207 and a second cleaning rod 208 are provided on the inner side of the storage box 201. A first spring 209 is connected between the second cleaning rod 208 and the storage box 201, so that the first cleaning rod 207 and the second cleaning rod 208 can perform a certain cleaning effect on the surface during the pulling of the shielding plate 204, ensuring a good observation effect.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the fixed structure 3 specifically includes a traction bar 302. The end of the baffle plate 204 is fixedly connected to the traction bar 302, and the top side of the glove box 1 is fixedly connected to the guide rail 301. The traction bar 302 and the guide rail 301 are arranged perpendicularly to each other. Multiple pulleys 308 are rotatably connected to the top of the traction bar 302, and the end of the traction bar 302 is slidably connected to the guide rail 301 through the pulleys 308. A hook block 304 is slidably connected to the inner side of the traction bar 302, and a second spring 307 is fixedly connected between the hook block 304 and the traction bar 302. A slot 305 is provided on the side of the glove box 1, and the end of the hook block 304 engages with the glove box 1 through the slot 305. A receiving groove 306 is provided in the middle of the hook block 304, and a release block 303 is slidably connected to the hook block 304 through the receiving groove 306. The release block 303 is slidably connected to the traction bar 302. The protruding baffle 204 can be fixed by the fixing structure 3, which makes it convenient for operators to perform laser cladding operations.

[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, a guide rail 301 is provided on the top side of the glove box 1, and the end of the traction bar 302 fixed to the end of the cover plate 204 is slidably connected to the guide rail 301 through a pulley 308. This allows the operator to easily pull out the cover plate 204 while ensuring that the cover plate 204 can be tightly attached to the surface of the transparent plate 203 for easy observation. When the traction bar 302 slides to the end of the guide rail 301, the hook block 304 on the side of the traction bar 302 will engage with the glove box 1 through the slot 305 via its inclined structure. At this time, the position of the traction bar 302 can be fixed, keeping the cover plate 204 in the unfolded state. When the cover plate 204 needs to be reset, the user only needs to slide the release block 303. The release block 303 slides in the receiving groove 306 on the hook block 304 and pushes the hook block 304 to slide, thereby releasing the engagement state of the hook block 304. Then, the cover plate 204 is wound up under the action of the torsion spring 206.

[0036] Please see Figure 8 As shown, the cleaning structure 5 specifically includes a cleaning rod 504. The cleaning rod 504 is rotatably connected to the inside of the glove box 1, and the side of the cleaning rod 504 is slidably connected to the inside of the transparent plate 203. A motor 501 is installed inside the glove box 1, and a turntable 502 is fixedly connected to the end of the motor 501 via a coupling. A sliding column 503 is fixedly connected to the side of the turntable 502. A pushing groove 505 is provided on the side of the cleaning rod 504, and the sliding column 503 is slidably connected to the cleaning rod 504 through the pushing groove 505. The cleaning structure 5 can maintain the cleanliness of the inner surface of the transparent plate 203 and maintain a good field of vision.

[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment, during the laser cladding process, dust and other impurities will adhere to the inner side of the transparent plate 203. Since the glove box 1 is a sealed environment, prolonged use will interfere with the operator's vision. By electrically connecting the motor 501 to an external power source and starting the motor 501, the turntable 502 will start to rotate. The sliding column 503 on the side of the turntable 502 will slide in the pushing groove 505 on the side of the cleaning rod 504, thereby driving the cleaning rod 504 to rotate back and forth within a certain angle range, achieving the cleaning effect on the inner side of the transparent plate 203, maintaining a good field of vision, and facilitating observation.

[0038] Please see Figure 7 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the adjustment structure 4 includes a mounting plate 401. The glove box 1 has a mounting plate 401 on its inner side. Sealing plates 402 are slidably connected to both sides of the mounting plate 401, and one side of the sealing plate 402 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the glove box 1. A guide rod 404 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the glove box 1. The mounting plate 401 and the guide rod 404 are slidably connected. A drive screw 412 is threadedly connected to the bottom side of the mounting plate 401. Both ends of the drive screw 412 are rotatably connected to the glove box 1. A worm gear sleeve 403 is fixedly connected to the middle of the drive screw 412. A worm 405 meshes with the side of the worm gear sleeve 403, and the worm 405 is rotatably connected to the glove box 1. A first bevel gear 406 is fixedly connected to the end of the worm 405. A second bevel gear 407 meshes with the side of the first bevel gear 406, and the second bevel gear 407 is rotatably connected to the glove box 1. A control block 411 is slidably connected to the top of the second bevel gear 407. A third spring 409 is fixedly connected between the control block 411 and the glove box 1. A positioning sleeve 408 is rotatably connected to the side of the control block 411, and the positioning sleeve 408 is slidably connected to the glove box 1. A positioning groove 410 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 401. The positioning groove 410 has a "T" shaped structure. The end of the positioning sleeve 408 is engaged with the mounting plate 401 through the middle position of the positioning groove 410. The position of the device inside the glove box 1 can be adjusted by adjusting the structure 4, making it convenient for the operator to operate through gloves.

[0039] Specifically, in this embodiment, a movable mounting plate 401 is provided inside the glove box 1. The mounting plate 401 is used for mounting laser cladding related instruments. A drive screw 412 is provided on the bottom side of the mounting plate 401. When the user rotates the control block 411, the worm gear 405 is driven to rotate through the transmission effect of the first bevel gear 406 and the second bevel gear 407. The worm gear 405 then drives the drive screw 412 to rotate through the meshing effect with the worm wheel sleeve 403. The rotation of the drive screw 412 ultimately adjusts the position of the mounting plate 401, increasing the operator's operating range. Sealing plates 4 are provided on both sides of the mounting plate 401. 02 is used to prevent items from falling to the bottom of the mounting plate 401. On the other hand, a positioning sleeve 408 is rotatably located on the side of the control block 411. The end of the positioning sleeve 408 is slidably connected to the mounting plate 401 through the positioning groove 410. When the end of the positioning sleeve 408 is engaged with the middle of the "T"-shaped positioning groove 410, it indicates that the mounting plate 401 is currently in the central position, which is convenient for the user to adjust the position of the mounting plate 401. When it is necessary to move the mounting plate 401, the user needs to press the control block 411 to make the end of the positioning sleeve 408 disengage from the protruding part in the middle of the positioning groove 410. At this time, the control block 411 can be rotated to adjust the position of the mounting plate 401.
