[0030] Example

[0031] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the water cutting device described in the embodiment of the present application includes a frame 1, a bracket 2, a driving mechanism 3, a supporting plate 4, a clamping mechanism 5, a carrier 6 and a cutting mechanism 7. The bracket 2, the driving mechanism 3 and the supporting plate 4 are all arranged on the frame 1, the clamping mechanism 5 is arranged on the bracket 2, the driving mechanism 3 drives the supporting plate 4 to reciprocate, the carrier 6 and the cutting mechanism 7 are both arranged on the supporting plate 4, and the cutting mechanism 7 is located on the side of the carrier 6.

[0032] During use, after the material taking and discharging robot places the injection molded part 26 with the water outlet 27 to be cut off on the carrier 6, the driving mechanism 3 drives the supporting plate 4 to move, and the supporting plate 4 drives the carrier 6 to move synchronously until the injection molded part 26 is located below the clamping mechanism 5 and stops. The clamping mechanism 5 clamps the injection molded part 26, and the cutting mechanism 7 cuts the water outlet 27 on the injection molded part 26. After the water outlet 27 is cut, the clamping mechanism 5 leaves the injection molded part 26, and the driving mechanism 3 drives the supporting plate 4 to return to the initial position. The supporting plate 4 drives the carrier 6 to move synchronously, which makes it convenient for the material taking and discharging robot to take away the injection molded part 26 with the water outlet 27 cut off and place the next injection molded part 26 with the water outlet 27 cut off, thereby reducing the labor intensity of personnel and improving production efficiency.

After the water outlet 27 is cut, the clamping mechanism 5 is reset, the first cylinder 10 extends, and the connecting block 11 drives the supporting plate 4 to move, so that the supporting plate 4 returns to its initial position, so that the material taking and unloading robot can take away the injection molded part 26 with the water outlet 27 cut off and place the next injection molded part 26 with the water outlet to be cut off.

[0035] In this embodiment, the clamping mechanism 5 includes a mounting frame 12, a second cylinder 13 and a pressure plate 14.
