Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of laser cutting, and in particular relates to a safety protection mechanism and a laser cutting machine. Background Art

[0002] Laser cutting is a new cutting method with minimal thermal deformation and the best incision quality. During the laser cutting process, the high-temperature residues and smoke generated by the laser contacting the workpiece are easily injured by the surrounding workers. Therefore, it is necessary to set up a protective mechanism around the laser head to avoid disorderly splashing of residues and collect and purify the smoke.

[0003] A Chinese patent document with authorization announcement number CN219484570U discloses a laser cutting machine with a safety protection mechanism. The laser cutting head can be covered by an annular transparent cover when the laser cutting machine is running, thereby playing a certain protective role in preventing residue from splashing. At the same time, the smoke generated during cutting can be absorbed and purified by the lifting and rotating cleaning mechanism and the absorption and purification mechanism, and the residue generated during cutting can be swept up and absorbed.

[0004] However, in the prior art, when residues with a certain temperature continue to splash onto the safety protection mechanism, it is easy for the mechanism to be damaged by heating up due to continuous burning of the residues, and the lifting distance of the safety protection mechanism is restricted by other components, and the lifting range is relatively limited. When the laser cutting machine is far away from the workpiece to be cut, the residues are still easy to splash to the outside. Therefore, a safety protection mechanism and a laser cutting machine are proposed. Utility Model Content

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by specific circumstances.

[0027] The present invention is further described below by way of embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, a safety protection mechanism includes a loading bin 1 arranged on the outer shell of a laser cutting head 4, a protection component 2 which can continuously maintain a good effect of preventing residue splashing and collecting smoke is arranged below the loading bin 1, and a connecting component 3 which can be connected with an external device to ensure the safety protection effect and service life of the protection component 2 is arranged on the protection component 2.

[0029] In this embodiment:

[0030] The protection component 2 includes a protection member that can be close to the workpiece to be cut to limit the splash of residue and collect smoke, and a blocking member that can further limit the range of residue splashing. The protection member includes an electric push rod 201 fixedly installed on both sides of the loading bin 1, and a protection ring 202 is fixedly connected between the telescopic ends of the electric push rod 201. The blocking member includes a partition net 203 fixedly installed in the protection ring 202, and a splash plate 204 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the protection ring 202. A hollow flow channel 205 is integrally formed in the protection ring 202, and a semi-enclosed flow channel 206 is arranged on the inner side of the hollow flow channel 205. A first connecting hole 207 is arranged on the upper side of the protection ring 202, and second connecting holes 208 are arranged on both sides of the protection ring 202. A screw hole 209 is also arranged on the upper side of the protection ring 202; the splash plate 204 is a hollow truncated cone structure with a certain height;

[0031] The height of the protective ring 202 and other parts relative to the loading bin 1 is flexibly adjusted by the electric push rod 201 with a fixed installation position but an unlimited telescopic range. The protective ring 202 provides an installation position for the partition 203, the splash plate 204 and the connecting component 3, and covers the part where the laser emitted by the laser cutting head 4 contacts the workpiece. The partition 203 prevents large-sized residues from entering the protective ring 202 and causing the semi-enclosed flow channel 206 to be blocked. The splash plate 204 further limits the range of residue splashing. The hollow flow channel 205 that allows the coolant to flow in the protective ring 202 can quickly cool the protective ring 202 and reduce the temperature of the partition 203 and the splash plate 204 at the same time. The semi-closed flow channel 206 that allows gas to pass can suck the smoke appearing in the central area of ​​the protective ring 202 from multiple directions after forming a negative pressure. The connecting component 3 can be stably connected to the protective ring 202 through the first connecting hole 207 and the second connecting hole 208, and the electric push rod 201 can be stably connected to the protective ring 202 through the screw hole 209.

[0032] In this embodiment:

[0033] The connecting component 3 includes an exhaust joint 301 fixedly connected above the protective ring 202, a drain joint 302 fixedly connected to one side of the protective ring 202, and a liquid inlet joint 303 fixedly connected to the other side of the protective ring 202; an air suction and purification device is connected to the outside through the exhaust joint 301, and a coolant circulation device is connected to the outside through the drain joint 302 and the liquid inlet joint 303, so as to form a negative pressure in the semi-closed flow channel 206, continuously suck the smoke in the center of the protective ring 202, and at the same time allow the coolant to continuously flow through the hollow flow channel 205, thereby taking away the heat transferred to the protective ring 202 and other components by the residue.

[0034] A laser cutting machine installs the above-mentioned safety protection mechanism on the outer shell of the laser cutting head 4 to provide protection for the workers when cutting the workpiece.

[0035] Working principle:

[0036] When the installation of this mechanism is completed and used for safety protection work related to laser cutting, the loading bin 1 needs to be connected to the robot arm or other adjustable position equipment so that the laser cutting head 4 and the protection component 2 can be easily moved relative to the workpiece to be cut, and the connecting component 3 needs to be connected to the external equipment so that the coolant can continuously flow in the hollow flow channel 205 and the negative pressure can be continuously formed in the semi-closed flow channel 206, thereby preventing the protection ring 202, the partition net 203, and the splash plate 204 from heating up when blocking the splashing of residues, and at the same time being able to fully suck the smoke generated by the cutting; in actual use, after adjusting the distance between the laser emitting end of the laser cutting head 4 and the workpiece, the distance between the protection ring 202 and the workpiece can be flexibly adjusted by the electric push rod 201 according to the safety protection needs, so that the protection ring 202 and other components can be close to the workpiece, thereby achieving the best safety protection effect under the premise that the service life of the protection component 2 is guaranteed.

[0037] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
