Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of handheld laser cleaning equipment, in particular to an auxiliary distance-fixing tool for handheld laser cleaning. Background Art

[0002] Laser technology developed in the 1960s, and the concept of laser cleaning was first proposed in 1969. After decades of development, foreign laser cleaning technology has basically matured. The scope of laser cleaning is very wide, from thick rust layers to surface fine particles. It has nearly 30 years of experience in use. There are many types of equipment used in laser cleaning experiments in decontamination, and the wavelength range of the laser used is wide. There are six main mechanisms of laser cleaning, including light pressure mechanism, selective vaporization mechanism, vibration wave mechanism, vaporization pressure mechanism, plasma explosion mechanism and ablation mechanism. In the process of laser cleaning, the cleaning mechanism needs to be determined according to the actual situation, which may be the joint action of two or more effects. At this stage, the type of laser light source used in laser cleaning technology is mainly pulsed laser. Compared with traditional continuous lasers, pulsed lasers have relatively high single pulse energy and peak power. Therefore, the ablation effect of local strong vaporization can be achieved without causing heat conduction damage to the substrate. With the development of laser technology in my country, the cost of lasers has been greatly reduced and the reliability has been steadily improved. Combined with the advantages of laser cleaning technology, such as being green, environmentally friendly, free of secondary pollution and low cost, it has been widely used in my country's aerospace, rail transit, nuclear power, ships and other fields.

[0003] At present, most handheld laser cleaning equipment uses an open cleaning gun head, without a gantry structure or a mechanical arm suspension. It is mostly suitable for rough cleaning of paint, oil, carbon deposits and other pollutants on metal surfaces, and the control of the cleaning threshold is not precise. Because the threshold of the change in mechanical properties of the metal surface under the action of laser is much higher than the vaporization threshold of the surface material, the method of controlling the cleaning threshold is to determine the cleaning threshold of the stain and the damage threshold of the substrate material, and to control the working distance and other test conditions so that the laser energy density irradiated on the material surface per unit area is between the two, so that the cleaning process does not damage the substrate material. However, in the handheld cleaning method, the focusing of the light spot is difficult to control, and the laser energy density irradiated on the material surface per unit area is difficult to control between the two thresholds, resulting in substrate damage or below the material vaporization threshold, which fails to achieve the cleaning purpose. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an auxiliary distance fixture for laser cleaning to solve the problem that the spot focusing is difficult to control during handheld laser cleaning. In the existing cleaning method, the working distance and cleaning angle are difficult to control, resulting in overburning of some areas and non-vaporization of some areas, uneven cleaning effects, and difficulty in quantitatively controlling the thinning amount of a single cleaning, and difficulty in realizing step-by-step peeling of the coating.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the utility model provides an auxiliary distance tooling for handheld laser cleaning, including a sliding ball base, a distance sleeve arranged on the sliding ball base, and a fixed bracket arranged on the distance sleeve, wherein the fixed bracket is provided with an installation through hole.

[0006] Preferably, there is an angle between the upper surface and the lower surface of the sliding ball base.

[0007] Preferably, the ball sliding base includes a ball sliding base bottom plate and a stainless steel ball pulley assembly arranged at the bottom of the ball sliding base bottom plate.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom plate of the sliding ball base is a wedge-shaped plate, with the upper and lower surfaces forming an angle of 8°.

[0009] Preferably, the distance sleeve comprises a distance sleeve lower panel arranged on the sliding ball base and a plurality of distance cylinders arranged on the distance sleeve lower panel, and the fixing bracket is arranged on the top of the distance cylinder.

[0010] Preferably, a countersunk hole corresponding to the distance cylinder is provided on the upper surface of the lower panel of the distance sleeve.

[0011] Preferably, a through hole is provided at the center of the countersunk hole.

[0012] Preferably, a threaded hole is provided at the center of the lower cross section of the distance cylinder.

[0013] Preferably, the fixing bracket is formed by two concave aluminum plates being fitted and fixed together.

[0014] Preferably, the fixing bracket has an outwardly extending strip protrusion at the joint of the two concave aluminum plates, the rear concave plate protrusion is made into a through hole, the front concave plate protrusion is made into a threaded through hole, and the two concave plates are fixed with hexagon socket bolts.

[0015] In summary, the utility model includes the following beneficial technical effects:

[0016] ① The ball slide base surface is not installed vertically to the entire fixed distance fixture, but at a certain angle, so that the laser beam does not have to be shot vertically to the material surface, avoiding the beam reflecting back to the cleaning gun head and damaging the lens.

[0017] ② The fixed distance sleeve is easy to disassemble and assemble. According to the different focal lengths of the field lens of the cleaning gun head, cylinders of different lengths can be selected for installation to adapt to different cleaning gun heads.

[0018] ③The fixed bracket has an elliptical through hole to facilitate the nested installation of the cleaning gun head, making it convenient to hold the handle and perform cleaning operations.

[0019] ④ With the assistance of the tooling, the cleaning gun head can perform cleaning operations within a stable working distance, and the focus of the light spot remains basically consistent, so that the cleaning effect is also stably controlled. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
