[0002] Currently, in laser light guide arms, the connection methods between the solid-line refraction head and the light guide tube include threaded connection with a locking nut or flange connection, but these connection methods cannot guarantee the coaxial accuracy after connection and provide sufficient connection strength.
[0003] After searching, a document with publication number (CN213628341U) discloses a differential connection structure of a laser light guide arm, including a joint, a differential nut and a light guide extension tube. The differential nut is installed on the right side of the joint, and the light guide extension tube is installed on the right side of the inner cavity of the joint. The light guide extension tube is connected to the differential nut, and a fixing mechanism is installed in the inner cavity of the differential nut.
[0004] The above device moves the connecting ring to the right, and the connecting rod can drive the clamping block to move to the right, so that the clamping block can be separated from the inner cavity of the clamping slot, thereby releasing the fixation of the differential nut. The differential nut can be used according to the normal usage method. The differential nut can be conveniently fixed through this device to avoid thread slippage after long-term use, ensure the stability of the connection, and prevent it from falling off easily.
[0005] The above device fixes the differential nut by cooperating between structures such as a connecting ring, but limiting the differential nut cannot fundamentally solve problems such as thread slippage, and thread slippage will still occur after long-term use.
[0006] In view of this, the present utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention.

[0028] Among them, a connecting rod 21 is provided on the ratchet gear 4, and the connecting rod 21 is fixedly connected to the corresponding ratchet gear 4, and the connecting rod 21 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 2, and the connecting rod 21 passes through the component block 3, and a sliding groove is provided on the inner side of the component block 3. The ratchet gear 4 is elastically connected to the sliding groove in the component block 3, and a slider 51 is slidably connected in the sliding groove of the component block 3, and a limiting rod 5 is fixedly connected to the slider 51. The limiting rod 5 is slidably connected to the ratchet gear 4, and a spring is provided between the slider 51 and the ratchet gear 4. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the ratchet gear 4, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the slider 51. The limiting rod 5, the slider 51 and the spring array are arranged around the ratchet gear 4, and sufficient space for the activities of components such as the ratchet gear 4, the limiting rod 5, the slider 51 and the spring is opened in the component block 3. In the first adjustment mode, manpower pulls the connecting block 2 outward, and the connecting block 2 drives the connecting rod 21 to move and drives the ratchet elastically connected to the component block 3. The wheel 4 moves and the ratchet gear 4 is pulled to release the meshing state. At this time, human power rotates the corresponding connecting block 2, and the connecting block 2 drives the ratchet gear 4 to rotate through the connecting rod 21, thereby adjusting the position of the light guide main body 1. When the adjustment is completed, the spring is deformed by the force when the ratchet gear 4 moves. When the human power releases the force on the connecting block 2, the spring releases the force generated by the deformation and pushes the ratchet gear 4 to move inward. At this time, human power rotates the ratchet gear 4 until the ratchet gears 4 are meshed. In the second adjustment method, human power rotates the connecting block 2, and the connecting block 2 drives the ratchet gear 4 to rotate in the opposite direction of the meshing direction, thereby adjusting the position of the light guide main body 1. When rotated to the appropriate position, the ratchet gears 4 are naturally meshed. The spring is squeezed and generates an opposite force when the ratchet gear 4 rotates. When the light guide main body 1 rotates to the appropriate position, the spring pushes the ratchet gear 4 through the opposite force, pressing the ratchet gears 4 to limit the position.
[0029] A laser light guide arm includes a light guide tube body 1, which is used to guide laser light. Both ends of the light guide tube body 1 are provided with all the above-mentioned differential connection structures. The light guide tube body 1 is fixedly connected to a connecting block 2. The position of the light guide tube body 1 is adjusted by means of the meshing state change between the ratchet gears 4, thereby extending the service life of the device. At the same time, through two different adjustment methods, it is convenient to rotate the light guide tube body 1 in different rotation directions, and it is convenient for users to adjust according to different usage environments and angles, thereby expanding the usage scenarios of the device.
[0030] Working principle: In the first adjustment mode, manpower pulls the connecting block 2 outward, and the connecting block 2 drives the connecting rod 21 to move and drives the ratchet gear 4 elastically connected to the component block 3 to move. The ratchet gear 4 is pulled to release the meshing state. At this time, manpower rotates the corresponding connecting block 2, and the connecting block 2 drives the ratchet gear 4 to rotate through the connecting rod 21, thereby adjusting the position of the light guide body 1. When the adjustment is completed, the spring is deformed by the force when the ratchet gear 4 moves. When the manpower releases the force on the connecting block 2, the spring releases the force generated by the deformation and pushes the ratchet gear 4 to move inward. At this time, manpower rotates the ratchet gear 4 until the ratchet gears 4 are meshed. In the second adjustment mode, manpower rotates the connecting block 2, and the connecting block 2 drives the ratchet gear 4 to rotate in the opposite direction of the meshing direction, thereby adjusting the light guide body. 1 is adjusted to its position. When it is rotated to a suitable position, the ratchet gears 4 are naturally engaged. The spring is squeezed when the ratchet gear 4 rotates and generates an opposite force. When the light guide body 1 is rotated to a suitable position, the spring pushes the ratchet gear 4 through an opposite force, pressing the ratchet gears 4 to limit the position. Through the above two operating methods, the previous method of differential movement of the nut is abandoned, thereby avoiding the problem of thread slippage caused by long-term use of the nut. With the help of the meshing state change between the ratchet gears 4, the position of the light guide body 1 is adjusted, thereby extending the service life of the device. At the same time, through two different adjustment methods, it is convenient to rotate the light guide body 1 in different rotation directions, and it is convenient for users to adjust according to different usage environments and angles, thereby expanding the usage scenarios of the device.
