[0031] In order to solve the problem that the existing technology cannot be applied to production lines for punching holes in the bottom of glass tubes and production lines of different heights, the utility model provides a glass tube punching device, including: a glass tube 1; a punching lamp head 2, the punching lamp head 2 is used to punch holes in the glass tube 1; a driving mechanism, the driving mechanism is configured to be able to drive the punching lamp head 2 to move back and forth in the vertical direction to adjust the height of the punching lamp head 2, and to drive the punching lamp head 2 to rotate in the vertical plane to adjust the angle of the punching lamp head 2 relative to the glass tube 1. By adjusting the punching lamp head 2 to move back and forth in the vertical direction, it can be applied to production lines of different heights, and the distance between the punching lamp head 1 and the glass tube 1 can also be adjusted. In addition, when the punching lamp head 2 moves to the bottom of the glass tube 1 in the vertical direction, the punching lamp head 2 rotates in the vertical plane to align with the bottom of the glass tube 1, such as Figure 1 As shown, the punch lamp head 2 can punch a hole in the bottom of the glass tube 1; when the punch lamp head 2 moves vertically above the glass tube 1, the punch lamp head 2 rotates in the vertical plane to align with the top of the glass tube 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the perforated lamp holder 2 can perforate the top of the glass tube 1.

[0032] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the punch lamp holder 2 is connected to the gas pipe 3, which is used to provide gas for the punch lamp holder 2. The gas pipe 3 is arranged on one side of the end of the glass tube 1 and is parallel to the length direction of the glass tube 1. The driving mechanism is configured to drive the gas pipe 3 to move back and forth in the vertical direction to adjust the height of the punch lamp holder 2, and to drive the gas pipe 3 to rotate in the vertical plane to adjust the angle of the punch lamp holder 2. Since the gas pipe 3 is connected to the punch lamp holder 2, the driving mechanism drives the gas pipe 3 to move, which can cause the punch lamp holder 2 to move synchronously.

[0033] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the driving mechanism includes a vertically arranged guide rod 6 and a moving block 4 mounted outside the guide rod 6. The air pipe 3 is rotatably connected to the moving block 4. The driving mechanism also includes a first driving member and a second driving member. The first driving member drives the moving block 4 to move along the length direction of the guide rod 6 so that the air pipe 3 moves back and forth in the vertical direction. The second driving member drives the air pipe 3 to rotate relative to the moving block 4.

[0034] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the guide rod 6 is configured as a screw, and the moving block 4 is threadedly connected to the screw. The first drive member drives the screw to rotate, causing the moving block 4 to reciprocate along the length of the screw. The first drive member can be configured as a servo motor, connected to the servo motor via a reducer at the bottom of the screw, and the distance the moving block 4 moves up and down is precisely controlled by a PLC; it can also be configured as a manual drive, with a handwheel directly installed at the bottom of the screw, and the screw is rotated by turning the handwheel to move the moving block 4 up and down. Alternatively, the guide rod 6 can be configured as a slide rod, and the moving block 4 can be slidably mounted outside the slide rod. The first drive member can be configured as a cylinder, and the cylinder output end is connected to the moving block 4 to drive the moving block 4 to reciprocate along the length of the slide rod.

[0035] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, at least one auxiliary rod 7 is spaced apart on either side of the guide rod 6 and is parallel to the guide rod 6. The moving block 4 is slidably sleeved outside the auxiliary rod 7. The air tube 3 is spaced apart between the guide rod 6 and the auxiliary rod 7 along the length of the moving block 4. When the first driving member drives the moving block 4 to move along the length of the guide rod 6, it also moves along the length of the auxiliary rod 7. The air tube 3 is spaced apart between the guide rod 6 and the auxiliary rod 7, providing more stable support during movement.

[0036] In some embodiments, a first fixing member is provided on the moving block 4 to releasably fix the moving block 4 on the auxiliary rod 7. After the height of the trachea 3 is determined, the first fixing member fixes the moving block 4 on the auxiliary rod 7 so that the moving block 4 has stable support and the height is fixed; when the height of the trachea 3 needs to be adjusted, the first fixing member releases the moving block 4 from the auxiliary rod 7 so that the moving block 4 is movable, and the height of the moving block 4 is adjusted under the drive of the first driving member.

[0037] In some embodiments, the first fixing member is a first locking screw 5, and at least one opening is provided between the side surface of the moving block 4 close to the auxiliary rod 7 and the auxiliary rod 7, and the first locking screw 5 is provided in the opening for movable connection.

The side wall of the opening can be provided with a thread, and the first locking screw 5 is connected to the thread of the opening to fix the movable block 4 to the auxiliary rod 7. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the punch lamp head 2, the first locking screw 5 is removed, and the first driving member drives the movable block 4 to move along the length direction of the guide rod 6. The first locking screw 5 can also be provided as a smooth screw, and the side wall of the opening is also smooth, and the first locking screw 5 is sleeved in the opening. A limiting ring can also be provided around the auxiliary rod 7 below the movable block 4, and a rubber ring with an opening is placed around the outside of the auxiliary rod 7, and the opening is fixed together with bolts. The friction between the limiting ring and the auxiliary rod 7 fixes the movable block 4 to the auxiliary rod 7 and does not fall. When adjusting the height, open the bolt to open the limiting ring and the movable block 4 can be moved.

[0038] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the moving block 4 is slidably sleeved outside the air tube 3, and the second driving member drives the air tube 3 to rotate around the axial direction of the air tube 3 in the moving block 4. The air tube 3 can be directly rotated manually to change the direction of the punch lamp head 2, or the second driving member is set as a motor, the output end of the motor is connected to the air tube 3, and the air tube 3 is driven to rotate to change the direction of the punch lamp head 2. A second fixing member is also provided on the moving block 4 to releasably fix the air tube 3 in the moving block 4. When the air tube 3 is rotated to align the punch lamp head 2 with the glass tube 1, the second fixing member fixes the air tube 3 to the moving block 4 and no longer rotates; when the angle of the punch lamp head 2 needs to be changed, the second fixing member releases the air tube 3 from the moving block 4, and the second driving member drives the air tube 3 to rotate to adjust the angle of the punch lamp head 2. Alternatively, a groove that matches the shape of the lower end of the trachea 3 can be provided on the top of the movable block 4, and the trachea 3 can be placed in the groove.

The directional strips are fixed to the top of the movable block 4 with bolts, and a hinge structure is provided at the connection between one of the strips and the arc-shaped strip. When the trachea 3 needs to be rotated, the bolts on the square strip without the hinge structure are removed, and the trachea 3 can be released by rotating the hinge structure. The structure of the rotational connection between the trachea 3 and the movable block 4 is not limited to these two types, and any structure that can realize the rotation of the trachea 3 around its own axis can be used.

The second locking screw 8 can also be provided as a smooth screw, and the side wall of the opening is also smooth, and the second locking screw 8 is sleeved in the opening. An opening can also be provided between the bottom of the movable block 4 and the trachea 3, or openings can be provided at both the top and the bottom of the movable block 4, and a second locking screw 8 can be provided in the opening.

[0040] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the glass tubes 1 are arranged in sequence along the length of the moving block 4.
