Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of blue light scanning of titanium alloy castings, in particular to a blue light scanning tool for titanium alloy castings. Background Art
[0002] Titanium alloy castings are a type of titanium alloy product produced using a casting process. They have a series of excellent physical, chemical and mechanical properties. Titanium alloy castings are made by using casting technology to melt titanium alloy raw materials and inject them into a mold, and then cool, solidify and subsequently process the resulting products. Titanium alloy castings have high specific strength and can withstand large loads at a lighter weight. Titanium alloys have good corrosion resistance and can be used for a long time under harsh environmental conditions. Titanium alloys can still maintain good performance at high temperatures and are suitable for high-temperature working environments. Titanium alloys are non-irritating to human tissues and have good biocompatibility. Therefore, they are widely used in medical devices and other fields.
[0003] Titanium alloys are investment cast due to their high dimensional and geometric accuracy, and their ability to cast complex castings. Special-shaped structural castings are also produced this way. However, due to metallurgical defects, cleaning and repair welding during the process can affect casting accuracy and cause dimensional issues. Therefore, blue light scanning is required to measure the dimensions of the castings. Blue light scanning is a high-precision dimensional measurement method that scans an object into a three-dimensional model, based on which a series of dimensional measurements are performed. It does this by projecting a blue light grating onto the surface of the object and using a high-precision camera to capture the distorted grating image. This allows for scanning and measurement of the three-dimensional contour of the object's surface, which is then processed to obtain a three-dimensional data model of the object.
[0004] However, common blue light scanning tooling for titanium alloy castings is usually limited by the blue light scanning method and only performs blue light scanning on a single product during scanning, resulting in a long scanning time, affecting production efficiency, and making the production cycle too long. In view of this, the present application proposes a blue light scanning tooling for titanium alloy castings. Utility Model Content
[0005] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the utility model provides a blue light scanning tool for titanium alloy castings, which has the advantages of increasing the number of single scans in the same time, reducing the blue light scanning cost of a single product and shortening the production cycle of castings in mass production. It solves the problem that the common blue light scanning tool for titanium alloy castings usually only performs blue light scanning on a single product during scanning due to the limitations of the blue light scanning method, resulting in a long scanning time, affecting production efficiency, and making the production cycle too long.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a blue light scanning tool for titanium alloy castings, comprising a turntable, a mounting base fixedly installed on the top of the turntable, a mounting column fixedly installed on the top of the mounting base, four groups of cross-axis fixing frames slidably installed on the surface of the mounting column, two cross-axis fixing frames in one group, a cross bar slidably installed on one side of the cross-axis fixing frame, one group of cross bars are parallel up and down, and the four groups of cross bars are perpendicular to each other, a parallel axis fixing frame slidably installed on one end of the cross bar, an exhaust pipe slidably installed on one side of the parallel axis fixing frame, a suction cup for adsorbing titanium alloy castings fixedly installed on one end of the exhaust pipe, and locking screws are threadedly installed on one side of the cross-axis fixing frame and the parallel axis fixing frame.
[0007] Furthermore, an air slip ring is fixedly installed on the bottom of the turntable, the rotating part of the air slip ring is fixedly connected to the turntable, and the rotating part of the air slip ring is provided with a rotating interface.
[0008] Furthermore, four rotary connection valves are fixedly installed on the bottom of the turntable, and one end of the rotary connection valve is connected to the rotary interface on one side of the air slip ring through a connecting pipe.
[0009] Furthermore, four manual control valves are fixedly installed on the top of the turntable, the input end of the manual control valve is connected to one end of the rotary connecting valve through a connecting pipe, and the output end of the manual control valve is connected to one end of the exhaust pipe through a connecting pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, a bearing shaft is fixedly installed on the bottom of the air slip ring, and a flange is fixedly installed on the bottom end of the bearing shaft.

[0014] 1. The blue light scanning tool for titanium alloy castings sets four groups of cross-axis fixing frames on the surface of the mounting column at the top of the turntable. An exhaust pipe is installed on each group of cross-axis fixing frames by installing a cross bar and a parallel axis fixing frame. A suction cup is set on one side of the exhaust pipe, so that four titanium alloy castings can be clamped on the top of the turntable at the same time, which increases the number of castings that can be scanned with blue light in a single time, reduces the cost of blue light scanning of castings, and improves production efficiency.
