Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of laser cladding heads, in particular to a laser cladding head with a condensation channel. Background Art
[0002] Laser cladding head is a key component used in laser cladding technology, mainly used to form a coating on the metal surface or repair the metal surface. Laser cladding is a high-temperature processing technology that focuses laser energy on a specific area on the workpiece surface to heat the metal powder or wire to above the melting point, and then forms a layer of metal coating on the surface. Publication No. CN217709675U discloses a laser cladding head. The split cladding head is composed of a material shell, a conveying shell and a material discharge assembly. The existing nozzle has only one powder feed channel, which is not conducive to changing powder or changing different particle sizes during the cladding process. The laser cladding head is designed for powder materials, and a stirring component is used to stir and convey the powder conveyed inside the feeding shell inside the conveying shell to prevent the powder materials from agglomerating and clogging. However, since the laser cladding head is not equipped with a cooling mechanism such as a condensation inner channel, the laser cladding head will be subjected to a considerable heat load during the laser cladding process. If there is a lack of an effective cooling mechanism, the laser head may overheat, resulting in performance degradation, shortened life, and even damage. At the same time, poor cooling effect of the laser head may lead to unstable energy output, which in turn affects the uniformity and quality of the coating. Therefore, it needs to be improved.

[0027] See also Figure 2-5 The inner channel 5 of the condensation and the connecting hose 12 are both arranged in a surrounding manner. The water inlet pipe 6 and the water outlet pipe 7 are both fixedly connected to the pipe body 1. The surrounding arrangement allows the condensate to circulate inside the connecting hose 12. The condensate can effectively absorb the heat brought by the laser thermal effect and reduce the temperature of the powder spray nozzle end, prevent overheating problems, and ensure a better cooling effect of the laser head. The storage box 9 is in an arc shape, and the outer surface of the mounting cover 13 is evenly and fixedly mounted with anti-slip convex strips 14. The anti-slip convex strips 14 increase the friction between the staff's hands and the contact surface, which helps to twist the mounting cover 13.

The small water pump 11 is used to circulate the condensate inside the connecting hose 12. The condensate flows from the storage box 9 to the inside of the condensate inner channel 5, thereby effectively reducing the heat of the condensate inner channel 5. The condensate effectively absorbs the heat brought by the laser thermal effect and reduces the temperature of the powder spray nozzle end to prevent overheating problems, ensure the best cooling effect of the laser head, and improve the performance and life of the laser head. The stability of the laser cladding process, in addition, when the laser cladding head is not in use, the support sheet 17 is installed at the bottom of the tube body 1, and then the upper magnetic sheet 18 and the lower magnetic sheet 19 are attracted and fitted, so that the dust cover 15 blocks the laser channel of the lower tube head 2 to prevent the laser channel from easily absorbing dust, which makes it difficult to maintain and clean.
