Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of aluminum pipe processing, and particularly relates to a trimming and cutting device for aluminum pipes. Background Art

[0002] After the aluminum pipe is formed, it needs to be cut into pipe segments of different lengths according to the usage requirements. As the usage environment becomes more and more severe, the cutting precision requirements are gradually increasing. In the prior art, an aluminum pipe cutting machine is disclosed, and the literature number is: CN219336152U. This solution adjusts the cutting angle of the cutting device by rotating the handle, and the cutting is relatively flexible. By setting a debris groove, the debris generated by cutting will fall on the base, and there is no need to pause the machine during cleaning, which improves the processing efficiency of the aluminum pipe; the aluminum pipe is fixed by a baffle and a fixing component, and there is no need for manual fixing, which reduces the labor intensity of workers, saves labor, and improves the cutting efficiency at the same time;

[0003] However, in the above solution, it can only meet the adjustment of the cutting angle of the aluminum pipe, and cannot ensure that the cutting length of the aluminum pipe is exactly the same as the required cutting length. Before cutting, workers need to manually align the cutting part with the cutting device, and for the aluminum pipes with the same cutting length in the same batch, it is necessary to manually adjust each aluminum pipe in this batch to align it with the cutting device before cutting each aluminum pipe, resulting in a reduction in cutting efficiency, and the error of manual alignment is large, and the cutting precision is poor. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a trimming and cutting device for aluminum pipes, which does not require manual alignment of the cutting parts of each aluminum pipe with the cutting device during cutting of the same batch of aluminum pipes, and has good cutting precision.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a trimming and cutting device for aluminum pipes, including a box body with a cutting member arranged inside. The key point of its structure is that an operation substrate is arranged inside the box body. The operation substrate can move vertically inside the box body and horizontally penetrates through both ends of the box body. Clamping components and moving alignment components are respectively connected to both ends of the operation substrate. One end of the aluminum pipe can extend into the box body and abut against the moving alignment component, and the other end of the aluminum pipe is located outside the box body and is stably clamped by the clamping component. The moving alignment component includes an abutting plate. The lower end of the abutting plate is movably connected to the operation substrate and can slide along the length direction of the operation substrate. A scale line is arranged on the upper surface of the operation substrate; an electric push rod is fixed on the operation substrate. The output end of the electric push rod is fixed to the abutting plate, and a reading plate is further connected to the output end of the electric push rod. The reading plate is aligned with the scale line, and the electric push rod can drive the abutting plate and the reading plate to move.

[0006] Further, the clamping component includes a clamping piece and a rotating sleeve. A threaded hole is arranged on the rotating sleeve, and a tightening screw is threadedly connected in the threaded hole.

[0007] Further, one end of the clamping screw is located inside the rotating sleeve and is connected to the clamping piece, and the other end is located outside the rotating sleeve and is connected with a gripping wheel.

[0008] Further, a positioning sleeve is sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating sleeve. The positioning sleeve is fixedly connected to the working substrate through a positioning rod. The rotating sleeve can rotate inside the positioning sleeve, and a force-applying rod is connected to the rotating sleeve.

[0009] Further, corresponding inlets and outlets are respectively provided on the front vertical plate and the back vertical plate of the box body. Both ends of the working substrate pass through the box body from the inlet and the outlet respectively, and an electric telescopic rod is provided at the lower end of the working substrate.

[0010] Further, a lower arched plate is provided on the working substrate. The lower arched plate is located inside the box body and is in the same vertical plane as the cutting member, and the lower arched plate arches downward.

[0011] Further, both the inlet and the outlet are waist-shaped strip openings. In the initial state, the abutting plate is located inside the outlet, and the abutting plate can move into or out of the box body from the outlet.

[0012] Further, a cover plate is hinged above the box body. The cover plate covers the upper part of the box body and the cover plate can be opened.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: By providing a clamping component, the clamping component can stably clamp the aluminum tube, and by connecting a force-applying rod to the clamping component, rotating the force-applying rod can drive the clamping component to rotate, and the stably clamped aluminum tube also rotates accordingly. In this way, an aluminum tube with a diameter larger than the cutting wheel can be completely cut by the cutting wheel during the rotation process; By movably connecting the abutting plate to the working substrate, and the abutting plate can move from inside the box body to outside the box body. By adjusting the position of the abutting plate, the horizontal distance between the abutting plate and the cutting wheel can be changed, so that the horizontal distance between the abutting plate and the cutting wheel is equal to the cutting length of the required aluminum tube. Then, by abutting the end of the aluminum tube against the abutting plate, the cutting part of the aluminum tube can be aligned with the cutting wheel, and the cutting accuracy is relatively high; At the same time, by providing scale lines on the working substrate and providing a reading plate piece aligned with the scale lines, the cutting precision of the aluminum tube can be further improved.

[0014] For the aluminum tubes cut in the same batch by this utility model, only need to adjust the position of the abutting plate once, then all the aluminum tubes in this batch can be cut, without manually aligning the cutting parts of each aluminum tube in this batch with the cutting wheel, and can accurately cut the aluminum tubes, and the cutting precision is relatively high.

Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present application claimed, but only represents the selected embodiments of the present application.

[0022] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "coupling" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection; it can be an electrical connection; it can be a hydraulic oil - path connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific situations.

[0023] Refer toFigure 1 As shown in the figure, a trimming and cutting device for aluminum tubes includes a rectangular box body 1. A cutting member 2 is fixed inside the box body 1. Corresponding inlets 3 and outlets 4 are respectively provided on the front vertical plate and the back vertical plate of the box body 1. The aluminum tube can enter the box body 1 from the inlet 3. An operating substrate 5 is also provided inside the box body 1. Both ends of the operating substrate 5 pass through the box body 1 from the inlet 3 and the outlet 4 respectively. Clamping components 6 and moving alignment components 7 are respectively connected to both ends of the operating substrate 5. The clamping component 6 can stably clamp the aluminum tube and drive the aluminum tube to rotate. The moving alignment component 7 is fitted inside the outlet 4 and can move along the operating substrate 5 into or out of the box body 1. The position of the moving alignment component 7 can be adjusted according to the required length of the aluminum tube, so that the distance between the moving alignment component 7 and the cutting member 2 is equal to the required length of the aluminum tube. The end of the aluminum tube is abutted against the moving alignment component 7, and the cutting mark of the aluminum tube is aligned with the cutting member 2. By controlling the operation of the cutting member 2, an aluminum tube of the required length can be obtained.

[0024] Both the above-mentioned inlets 3 and outlets 4 are waist-shaped strip openings and the center lines of the two are the same straight line. Therefore, this device is only applicable to aluminum tubes with a diameter less than or equal to the width of the inlets 3 and outlets 4. The clamping component 6 can clamp aluminum tubes with different diameters under this condition. When the horizontal height of the clamped aluminum tube is lower than that of the cutting member 2, the operating substrate 5 can be lifted upward and drive the aluminum tube to move upward. The cutting member 2 is located on the moving path of the aluminum tube to ensure that the cutting member 2 can contact and cut the aluminum tube. Specifically:

[0025] Refer to Figures 2 to 3 As shown in the figure, an electric telescopic rod 8 is provided at the lower end of the operating substrate 5. The electric telescopic rod 8 is fixed to the bottom surface of the box body 1, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 8 is fixed to the lower surface of the operating substrate 5. When the electric telescopic rod 8 extends or contracts, it will drive the operating substrate 5 to move vertically upward or downward. At this time, sliders are arranged on the side surfaces of the operating substrate 5 in contact with the inlets 3 and outlets 4, and vertical grooves corresponding to the sliders are arranged on the inner walls of the inlets 3 and outlets 4. The sliders are fitted in the vertical grooves and can slide vertically in the vertical grooves. When the electric telescopic rod 8 drives the operating substrate 5 to move vertically, the sliders move vertically in the vertical grooves. In this way, the operating substrate 5 can be kept stable during the vertical movement process without shaking and offsetting. The clamping component 6 is connected to the end of the operating substrate 5 close to the inlet 3 and is located outside the box body 1. The clamping component 6 includes clip pieces 9 and a rotating sleeve 10. The clip pieces 9 are located inside the rotating sleeve 10. A threaded hole is provided on the rotating sleeve 10, and a tightening screw 11 is threadedly connected in the threaded hole. One end of the tightening screw 11 is located inside the rotating sleeve 10 and is connected to the clip pieces 9, and the other end is located outside the rotating sleeve 10 and is connected to a gripping wheel 12. By screwing the gripping wheel 12, the distance between the clip pieces 9 and the inner wall of the rotating sleeve 10 can be adjusted, so as to adapt to aluminum tubes with different diameters and form a stable clamping on aluminum tubes with different diameters;

[0026] A positioning sleeve 13 is also sleeved on the rotating sleeve 10. The positioning sleeve is connected to the working substrate 5 through a positioning rod 14. An annular groove is provided on the inner arm of the positioning sleeve 13, and a limiting ring is provided on the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 10. The limiting ring is fitted in the annular groove. At this time, a force-applying rod 15 is connected to the end face of the rotating sleeve 10 away from the inlet 3. By applying a rotational force to the force-applying rod 15, the rotating sleeve 10 can be driven to rotate, and the clamping piece 9 rotates accordingly, and the aluminum tube stably clamped by the clamping piece 9 also rotates accordingly.

[0027] Refer to Figure 4 As shown, the cutting member 2 includes a positioning arm 16. One end of the positioning arm 16 is fixed to the side wall of the box body 1, and the other end is connected with a cutting wheel 17. The cutting wheel 17 is located between the inlet 3 and the outlet 4. When the cutting wheel 17 rotates at a high speed, the aluminum tube in contact with it can be cut. The structure for controlling the rotation of the cutting wheel 17 is a conventional structure. For example, a driving device for controlling the rotation of the cutting wheel is provided in a toothless saw, a grinding wheel cutting machine, etc. A driving device is also installed at the free end of the positioning arm 16 in this application. Since the space in the box body 1 is limited, the diameter of the cutting wheel 17 cannot be too large. Then when the diameter of the aluminum tube is larger than the diameter of the cutting wheel 17, the cutting wheel 17 cannot directly cut off the aluminum tube. At this time, the force-applying rod 15 can be rotated to drive the rotating sleeve 10 to drive the stably clamped aluminum tube to rotate, so that the cutting wheel 17 can completely cut off the aluminum tube. At the same time, a lower arch plate (concave area) 18 is provided on the working substrate 5. The concave area 18 is located in the box body 1 and directly below the cutting wheel 17. Then when the cutting wheel 17 cuts the aluminum tube, the setting of the concave area 18 can prevent the working substrate 5 from contacting the cutting wheel 17 and being cut off by the cutting wheel 17, ensuring that the cutting wheel 17 only contacts the aluminum tube and only cuts the aluminum tube.

[0028] Refer to Figure 5As shown in the figure, the above-mentioned moving alignment component 7 includes an abutting plate 19. The abutting plate 19 can pass through the outlet 4. The lower end of the abutting plate 19 is slidably connected to the working substrate 5. An adjusting arm 20 is fixed on the working substrate 5. The output end of the adjusting arm 20 is butted against the abutting plate 19. The adjusting arm 20 can control the sliding of the abutting plate 19 on the working substrate 5. The adjusting arm 20 can optionally be an electric push rod with a telescopic structure. The output end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the side surface of the abutting plate 19. Then the electric push rod 20 can control the sliding of the abutting plate 19 along the length direction of the working substrate 5. In the initial state, the abutting plate 19 is fitted in the outlet 4. The horizontal distance between the abutting plate 19 and the cutting member 2 is equal to the horizontal distance between the back vertical plate of the box body 1 and the cutting member 2. According to the length of the aluminum tube to be cut, when the required cutting length of the aluminum tube is less than the horizontal distance between the back vertical plate of the box body 1 and the cutting member 2, control the electric push rod 20 to drive the abutting plate 19 to move from the outlet 4 into the box body 1. When the required cutting length of the aluminum tube is greater than the horizontal distance between the back vertical plate of the box body 1 and the cutting member 2, control the electric push rod 20 to drive the abutting plate 19 to move from the outlet 4 out of the box body 1;

[0029] To facilitate observing the moving distance of the abutting plate 19, a cover plate 21 is hinged above the box body 1. The cover plate 21 covers the upper part of the box body 1 and can be opened. At this time, a scale line 22 is arranged on the upper surface of the working substrate 5, and a reading plate piece 23 is connected to the output end of the electric push rod 20. The lower end of the reading plate piece 23 is aligned with the scale line 22 on the working substrate 5. When the electric push rod 20 works, it will drive the reading plate piece 23 to move. Only need to pay attention to which scale line 22 the starting position of the reading plate piece 23 is on. Based on the starting position of the reading plate piece 23, according to the required length of the aluminum tube, move the reading plate piece 23 by the corresponding distance, and the abutting plate 19 will also move by the corresponding distance, then the adjustment of the position where the abutting plate 19 is located can be realized. When both the reading plate piece 23 and the abutting plate 19 move into the box body 1, the cover plate 21 can be opened to observe the position scale where the reading plate piece 23 is located. When the reading plate piece 23 reaches the corresponding position, control the electric push rod 20 to stop working. At this time, the abutting plate 19 also remains stationary and does not move anymore. The end of the aluminum tube inserted from the inlet 3 can directly abut against the abutting plate 19. At this time, the cutting part on the aluminum tube is exactly aligned with the cutting wheel 17, and the aluminum tube can be directly cut.

[0030] Before the device is used, the counter plate 19 is located inside the outlet 4 of the back vertical plate, and the reading plate piece 23 is located outside the box body 1. First, according to the length of the aluminum tube to be cut, control the electric push rod 20 to drive the counter plate 19 and the reading plate piece 23 to move, ensuring that the horizontal distance between the counter plate 19 and the cutting wheel 17 is equal to the length of the aluminum tube to be cut. Then, pass one end of the aluminum tube through the clamping member 6 and the inlet 3 in sequence, making this end abut against the counter plate 19. Then, turn the grip wheel 12, so that the tightening screw rod 11 drives the clamping pieces 9 to approach each other, clamping the aluminum tube stably. Subsequently, control the cutting wheel 17 to rotate, and control the electric telescopic rod 8 to drive the operation substrate 5 to move upward. During the upward movement, the aluminum tube will gradually approach the cutting wheel 17 until they come into contact. The cutting wheel 17 will directly cut off the aluminum tube with a diameter smaller than itself. For an aluminum tube with a diameter larger than the cutting wheel 17, it is necessary to rotate the force-applying rod 15, and the force-applying rod 15 will drive the aluminum tube to rotate, so as to realize the cutting of the aluminum tube with a diameter larger than the cutting wheel 17. A large amount of sparks will be generated during the process of the cutting wheel 17 cutting the aluminum tube. During the cutting process, it is necessary to flip the cover plate 21 to cover the box body 1. At this time, the box body 1 is in a closed state, which can avoid the splashing of sparks and cause harm to the staff.

[0031] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model can easily think of changes or substitutions, which should all be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claimed rights.
