Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of laser marking machines, in particular to an automatic focusing device of a laser marking machine. Background Art
[0002] Laser marking is to use laser beam to make permanent marks on the surface of various materials. The effect of marking is to expose the deeper material through the evaporation of the surface material, or to carve out traces through the chemical and physical changes of the surface material caused by light energy, or to burn off part of the material through light energy to reveal the pattern and text to be etched. Before the laser marking machine works, it is necessary to focus the workpiece through the laser lens.
[0003] The existing patent (application number: CN202120740453.3) discloses an automatic focusing device for a laser marking machine, including a laser marking machine body, the sides of the laser marking machine body are respectively fixedly connected with a box and a control switch, the lower surface of the box is respectively fixedly connected with a laser lens and a distance sensor, the lower surface of the laser marking machine body is rotatably connected with an adjusting nut, the inner wall of the adjusting nut is threadedly connected with a supporting leg, the upper surface of the laser marking machine body is rotatably connected with a handle, and a slide groove is provided on the side of the laser marking machine body. By arranging a distance sensor, an adjusting motor, an adjusting screw and an adjusting block, the height of the workpiece placement table can be easily adjusted, so that the laser marking machine has the effect of convenient automatic focusing.
[0004] However, the above patent still has certain defects. Although the above patent can achieve the effect of autofocus by adjusting the height of the placement table, the above patent does not fix the workpiece when performing autofocus. In the process of the placement table moving upward for autofocusing, after the placement table stops moving upward, the workpiece may continue to move upward due to inertia, so that after the workpiece falls on the placement table, the position of the workpiece is prone to shift, thereby causing the autofocus point position of the workpiece to deviate from the predetermined autofocus point position. Therefore, the utility model provides an autofocus device for a laser marking machine. Utility Model Content
