Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of pipe processing and relates to a pipe laser cutting tool. Background Art

[0002] In order to evenly (90°) split the slender seamless pipe into 4 pieces along the center line, the EDM wire cutting method is often used. Due to the limitations of the structure of the EDM wire cutting equipment, if the length exceeds the processing range of the equipment, it is necessary to cut the pipe in sections along the pipe axis multiple times. Multiple clamping will cause error accumulation, resulting in extremely low part yield. The production cost rises sharply when processing high-value materials. The EDM wire cutting process takes a long time, and only one pipe can be processed per clamping, resulting in low production efficiency. In order to improve the processing accuracy of parts, reduce production costs and improve production efficiency, it is urgent to develop a tooling fixture combined with laser cutting technology. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a laser cutting tool for slender seamless pipes with high processing accuracy and high efficiency.

[0004] In order to achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0005] A tube laser cutting tool, comprising a whole tube cutting component and a half tube cutting component;

[0006] The whole tube cutting assembly includes a bottom plate, and a plurality of limit strips 1 are evenly spaced at the parts on the bottom plate. The limit strips 1 are fixed on the bottom plate, and the space between the limit strips 1 and the limit strips 1 is used to place the whole tube. The height of the limit strips 1 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the tube. The tube is placed in the space between the limit strips 1 and the limit strips 1 and then fixed with a pressing plate. The pressing plate is fixed on the limit strip 1 by a pressing plate screw. The width of the pressing plate is greater than the width of the limit strip 1. The pressing plate is located in the middle of the limit strip 1. The pressing plate extends to the two edges outside the limit strip 1 to press the tube. A gap is left between adjacent pressing plates in the same row, and this gap is the cutting gap of the laser.

[0007] Replacing the limit strip 1 of the whole tube cutting assembly with the limit strip 2 is a half tube cutting assembly. The height of the limit strip 2 is slightly lower than half of the outer diameter of the half tube, and the width of the limit strip 2 is the same as that of the limit strip 1.

[0008] Furthermore, the length direction of the limit strip 1 is the same as that of the base plate. The limit strip 1 is fixed to the base plate by a limit strip screw. The pressure plate is located above the limit strip 1. A through hole 1 that cooperates with the limit strip screw is opened in the middle of the pressure plate. The limit strip screw passes through the pressure plate and the limit strip 1 in sequence and then extends to the base plate to cooperate with the corresponding threaded holes on the base plate to fix the limit strip 1.

[0009] Furthermore, two pressing plate through holes are symmetrically opened at the front and rear of the pressing plate, and the pressing plate screws pass through the corresponding pressing plate through holes from the top of the pressing plate and then cooperate with the corresponding threaded holes on the limiting strip.

[0010] Furthermore, the pressing plates are arranged in a plurality of rows in the length direction of the limiting strips according to requirements, and each row is arranged with an interval.

[0011] Furthermore, a groove is opened on the bottom plate at one end of the limit strip, the groove is perpendicular to the limit strip, the groove extends along the width direction of the bottom plate, and a positioning pin is fixed on the bottom plate on the side of the groove away from the limit strip.

[0029] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.

[0030] As shown in the figure, a tube laser cutting tool includes a whole tube cutting component and a half tube cutting component.

[0031] The whole pipe cutting assembly includes a base plate 1, and a plurality of limit strips 3 are evenly spaced apart on the base plate 1. The length direction of the limit strips 3 is the same as that of the base plate 1, and the limit strips 3 are fixed to the base plate 1 by limit strip screws 7. The space between the limit strips 3 is used to place the whole pipe 2, and the height of the limit strips 3 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the pipe 2. The pipe 2 is placed in the space between the limit strips 3 and the limit strips 3 and then fixed by a pressing plate 4. The pressing plate 4 is located above the limit strips 3, and a through hole 401 is opened in the middle of the pressing plate 4 to match the limit strip screw 7. The limit strip screw 7 passes through the pressing plate 4 and the limit strip 3 in turn and then extends into the base plate 1 to match the corresponding threaded hole on the base plate 1 to fix the limit strip 3.

[0032] The pressure plate 4 has two symmetrical pressure plate through holes 402, and the pressure plate screw 6 passes through the corresponding pressure plate through holes 402 from the top of the pressure plate 4 and matches with the corresponding threaded holes on the limit strip 3. The width of the pressure plate 4 is greater than the width of the limit strip 3, and the pressure plate 4 is located in the middle of the limit strip 3. The two edges of the pressure plate 4 extending to the outside of the limit strip 3 are used to press the pipe 2. The pressure plates 4 are arranged in several rows along the length direction of the limit strip according to the needs, and each row is arranged at intervals. There is a gap between adjacent pressure plates 4 in the same row, and this gap is the cutting gap of the laser.

[0033] A groove 101 is formed on the bottom plate 1 at the end of the limit strip 3, and the groove 101 is perpendicular to the limit strip 3 and extends along the width direction of the bottom plate 1. The side of the groove 101 close to one end of the limit strip 3 is flush with the end of the limit strip 3. A positioning pin 5 is fixed on the bottom plate 1 on the side of the groove 101 away from the limit strip 3. The positioning pin 5 is located between the two limit strips 3 and cooperates with the pipe 2. During processing, the end of the pipe 2 is pressed against the positioning pin 5.

[0034] The groove 101 is used for cutting the end of the pipe 2 .

[0035] The difference between the half-tube cutting assembly and the full-tube cutting assembly is that the half-tube cutting assembly adopts a limiting strip 2 8. After the tube 2 is divided into two, the height of the half tube 2' is reduced after being placed on the bottom plate 1. Therefore, the limiting strip 1 3 in the full-tube cutting assembly is replaced with a limiting strip 2 8 to realize the half-tube cutting assembly. The height of the limiting strip 2 8 is slightly lower than half of the outer diameter of the half tube 2'.

[0036] The working principle of this utility model:

[0037] According to the size of the processed pipe 2 and the platform size of the laser cutting machine, a full pipe cutting component and a half pipe cutting component were designed after decomposing the processing technology.

[0038] First, when the whole pipe 2 is cut at the 0° position, the whole pipe cutting assembly is used to place a plurality of pipes 2 in batches into the space surrounded by the bottom plate 1 and the limit strip 3, one end of the pipe 2 is pressed against the positioning pin 5, and then the pipe 2 is pressed with the pressing plate 4. Then the laser cutting machine is used to complete the knife alignment and cut out the first slit and the pin positioning hole 201 (such as Figure 2 , 3 shown).

[0039] Second, turn the tube 2 180° and cut the entire tube 2 at 180°. At this time, use the whole tube cutting assembly to place multiple 0° cut tubes 2 in the space surrounded by the bottom plate 1 and the limit strip 3. Insert the positioning pin 5 into the pin positioning hole 201 cut by the tube 2, and then press the tube 2 with the pressing plate 4. Then use the laser cutting machine to complete the knife alignment and cut the second slit and then cut off the excess at both ends (such as Figure 4 , 5 ).

[0040] Third, perform the overall cutting of the half pipe 2' using the half pipe cutting assembly. Place multiple half pipes 2' in batches in the space surrounded by the bottom plate 1 and the limit strip 8, with the cut of the half pipe 2' facing downward, one end of the half pipe 2' against the positioning pin 5, and then use the pressing plate 4 to press the half pipe 2'. Then use the laser cutting machine to complete the knife alignment and cut the half pipe 2', and then cut off the excess at both ends (such as Figure 7 , 8 ) to obtain the required high-precision parts.

[0041] Therefore, the utility model realizes that the 0° position slitting of the pipe 2 is completed in batches by using the whole pipe tooling, and the 180° position slitting of the pipe 2 is completed in batches again, and the excess at both ends of the pipe 2 is cut off to obtain a half pipe 2'. The half-pipe cutting assembly is used to complete the quarter slitting of the half pipe 2' and then the excess at both ends is cut off, and finally a quarter pipe 2, i.e., the required parts, is obtained.

[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
