Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of laser tube cooling devices, in particular to a laser folding tube reflector heat dissipation device. Background Art
[0002] CO2 laser tubes have enormous market potential, with demand growing exponentially annually in recent years. They are widely used in various industries for laser processing of metal and non-metal materials, including cutting, drilling, engraving, marking, quenching, cladding, and welding. Currently, there are two types of medium- and high-power laser tubes on the market: radio frequency (RF) lasers (metal tubes) and axial fast-flow lasers. Metal tubes can meet the market's precision requirements for laser processing, but they are expensive and technically complex. Currently, there are no large-scale industrialized products in China, and they rely heavily on imports, making them difficult to promote on a large scale in China and other developing countries. This is especially true for medium- and high-power metal tubes, which are only produced by a handful of companies in developed countries, and their prices are prohibitively high. Axial fast-flow lasers are mature internationally, with a certain scale of production in China. However, due to their production processes, technical routes, and component costs, they only achieve a competitive price-performance ratio at higher powers. Domestically, low-cost DC laser tubes (glass tubes) are only capable of low power due to technical and process limitations, far from meeting market demand.
[0003] Currently, a Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN102544987B discloses a plane-folded vertical beam-combining laser tube, comprising a gas storage tube, a gas return tube, a thin film polarizer, a reflective lens, and at least four tube assemblies. Each tube assembly is connected to the gas storage tube via a gas return tube. The at least two tube assemblies are arranged side by side in a first plane, and at least two tube assemblies are arranged side by side in a second plane perpendicular to the first plane. Adjacent tube assemblies in the first plane are connected by a folding lens to form a first S-shaped tube. Adjacent tube assemblies in the second plane are connected by a folding lens to form a second S-shaped tube. The advantages of the present invention are as follows: two strong laser beams with the same light output direction and opposite polarization directions generated in two perpendicular planes are combined into a high-power laser beam with good circular polarization after passing through a thin film polarizer and a reflective lens. The laser beam has high power, good spot quality, and is fine after focusing. The laser processing speed is fast, the effect is good, and the production cost is relatively low.

[0021] Example 1:
[0022] like Figure 1-Figure 2As shown, a laser folding tube reflector heat dissipation device includes a first laser folding tube 1, a second laser folding tube 2, a fixing device 3 and a cooling device 4. The first laser folding tube 1 and the second laser folding tube 2 are fixedly installed on the top of the fixing device 3, and the first laser folding tube 1 and the second laser folding tube 2 are parallel to each other. The first laser folding tube 1 is arranged on one side of the second laser folding tube 2 at intervals. The left end of the first laser folding tube 1 and the left end of the second laser folding tube 2 are both fixedly installed with a laser reflector. An open structure is provided on the right side of the cooling device 4. The cooling device 4 is sleeved on the left ends of the first laser folding tube 1 and the second laser folding tube 2. The cooling device 4 includes an integrally formed rectangular shell portion 41, a first chamfered protrusion 42 located at the left front end of the rectangular shell portion 41, and a second chamfered protrusion 43 located at the left rear end of the rectangular shell portion 41. The left ends of the first chamfered protrusion 42 and the second chamfered protrusion 43 both have protrusions extending beyond the left end face of the rectangular shell. The left front corner of the inner wall of the rectangular shell and the left rear corner of the inner wall of the rectangular shell are both set to conformal chamfered surfaces corresponding to the first chamfered protrusion 42 and the second chamfered protrusion 43. The conformal chamfered surface of the inner wall of the rectangular portion of the cooling device 4 is in contact with the left side face of the reflector of the first laser folding tube 1 / the second laser folding tube 2. The tops of the first chamfered protrusion 42 and the second chamfered protrusion 43 are both provided with cooling water loop holes with the same structure. The bottom of the cooling water loop hole is provided with a water inlet hole and a water outlet hole that pass through the first chamfered protrusion 42 / the second chamfered protrusion 43 up and down, and the axes of the water inlet hole and the water outlet hole are parallel to each other. The inner top of the cooling water loop hole is provided with a vertically placed baffle, which is used to separate the inner bottom end of the cooling water loop hole into two chambers that are not connected to each other. A piston is inserted into the inner top of the cooling water loop hole, and there is a gap between the bottom end surface of the piston and the top surface of the baffle. The piston is interference fit with the inner top of the cooling water loop hole. The right end of the rectangular part of the cooling device 4 is set to a completely open open structure, and a clamping plate for clamping the first laser folding tube 1 and the second laser folding tube 2 is inserted inside the right end of the rectangular part. The clamping plate is provided with sockets corresponding to the first laser folding tube 1 and the second laser folding tube 2, and the sockets are gap-matched with the first laser folding tube 1 and the second laser folding tube 2. The gap between the sockets and the first laser folding tube 1 and the second laser folding tube 2 is filled with buffering fixing glue, and the periphery of the cooling device 4 is provided with an acute-angled blunt shape. The acute-angled blunt shape is to remove burrs during the processing process and avoid scratching the operator during installation and use.
[0023] Implementation process: When in use, the cooling water enters the cooling water loop hole from the water inlet hole at the bottom end of the cooling water loop hole, and is then blocked by the baffle and continues to flow from bottom to top in the cooling water loop hole. When the cooling water flows to the inner top end of the cooling water loop hole, it is blocked and changed direction by the bottom end face of the piston, and enters the other side of the cooling water loop hole from the position between the baffle and the piston, and then flows from top to bottom to the water outlet hole, thereby realizing the cooling water circulation in the cooling water loop hole. In this way, the heat on the conformal chamfered surface can be greatly taken away. Because the reflector is in contact with the conformal chamfered surface, the cooling water is actually cooling the reflector, thereby providing a relatively constant temperature environment for the reflector to work.
[0024] In the embodiments disclosed in this utility model, the terms "installed," "connected," "connected," and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connected" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; "connected" can mean a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediary. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments disclosed in this utility model based on specific circumstances.
[0025] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.
