[0002] The laser cladding process is a light-powder action process. It is a process in which external materials are added to the molten pool formed by laser irradiation of the substrate by synchronous or pre-setting materials, and the two are quickly solidified together to form a cladding layer.

The sleeve 5 is used to separate the laser channel 2 from the powder spraying chamber 8, which is convenient for replacing each component separately when the laser channel 2 or the powder spraying chamber 8 is damaged, thereby reducing production costs. The detachable design is convenient for the staff to clean and maintain the nozzle body 1 and the sleeve 5 separately, thereby enhancing the applicability of the nozzle in different working environments. A powder spraying chamber 8 is opened at the lower end of the sleeve 5, and a powder conveying pipe 9 is connected to the upper end opening of the powder spraying chamber 8. The powder spraying chamber 8 and the powder conveying pipe 9 are symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the sleeve 5, and the other end of the powder spraying chamber 8 penetrates to the outer wall of the lower end of the sleeve 5, and the powder spraying chamber 8 and the powder conveying pipe 9 are connected. The powder spraying chamber 8 is used to synchronously spray the powder transported by the powder conveying pipe 9 onto the material surface for cladding operations.

[0022] See also Figure 3-Figure 4 A laser cladding nozzle includes: a throttle valve 10 is installed in the middle of a powder conveying pipe 9, a flange 11 is fixed to the end of the powder conveying pipe 9 away from the sleeve 5, and the powder conveying pipe 9 is connected with the powder injection chamber 8 through the flange 11 and the throttle valve 10.
