[0022] Specifically, it includes a powder feeding joint 1, a pipe seat 2, at least two adjustment components 3, at least two cladding nozzles 4 and at least two connecting pipes 5; the pipe seat 2 is rotatably connected to one end of the powder feeding joint 1, and at least two cladding nozzles 4 are respectively connected to the pipe seat 2 through the adjustment components 3 to adjust the angle of the cladding nozzle 4; at least two connecting pipes 5 are connected to the cladding nozzle 4, and one end of the connecting pipe 5 away from the pipe seat 2 is connected to the cladding nozzle 4 to transport powder to the cladding nozzle 4.
[0023] In actual settings, multiple cladding nozzles 4 are added to the outer surface of the tube holder 2 to increase the uniformity of the coating. At the same time, the angle of a single cladding nozzle 4 is adjusted by adjusting the component 3 to achieve cladding treatment of workpieces of different shapes, thereby effectively improving the production efficiency during the cladding process.
[0024] It should be noted that the cladding nozzle 4 is L-shaped, at least two cladding nozzles 4 are distributed in a circular array on the outside of the pipe seat 2, and the connecting pipe 5 is a polytetrafluoroethylene metal hose.
[0025] In actual settings, the use of cladding nozzles 4 distributed in a circular array can make the coverage of the powder spray on the workpiece surface more uniform, thereby improving the uniformity and consistency of the cladding, and through the coordinated work of multiple cladding nozzles 4, more surface areas can be covered in a shorter time, thereby improving production efficiency.
[0026] In addition, the polytetrafluoroethylene metal hose used as the connecting pipe 5 has excellent corrosion resistance and chemical stability, and can withstand high temperature and corrosive environment during the laser cladding process, thereby extending the service life of the equipment and reducing maintenance costs.
[0027] See also Figure 2 In order to facilitate the adjustment of the angle of the cladding nozzle 4, the adjustment assembly 3 in this embodiment includes a mounting seat 301, a connecting tube 302 and a universal ball 303; the mounting seat 301 is arranged on the outside of the pipe seat 2 and close to its bottom end, the connecting tube 302 is assembled on the side of the mounting seat 301 away from the pipe seat 2, and the universal ball 303 is rotatably connected to the inside of the connecting tube 302.
[0028] In actual use, the angle of the cladding nozzle 4 is adjusted by rotating the cladding nozzle 4 and driving the universal ball 303 to rotate inside the connecting tube 302. The design of the universal ball 303 can achieve smooth rotation in all directions, and can achieve fine adjustment of the angle of the cladding nozzle 4, thereby improving the accuracy and flexibility of adjustment.
