[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass cutting technology, and in particular to a large-format glass laser cutting machine. Background Technology
[0002] Glass is a silicate-based non-metallic material formed by melting sand and other chemical substances together. During melting, it forms a continuous network structure, and during cooling, its viscosity gradually increases and it hardens, causing it to crystallize. Currently, glass is widely used in various fields of life, such as construction and electronic products. Before glass can be put into use, it needs to be cut into large pieces using a glass cutting machine, and then processed through post-cutting procedures.
[0003] Currently, there are many publicly available patents related to cutting machines. For example, the technical solution of Chinese patent document (publication number: CN212833475U, patent name: a laser cutting device for glass cutting) discloses that "it includes a belt conveyor, and mounting plates are installed at the front and rear of the top of the belt conveyor support. Support rods are fixedly connected to the top of the two mounting plates. A fixing strip extending from front to back is provided above the belt conveyor. A distance adjustment component is provided on the fixing strip. A connecting block is fixedly connected to the right side of the distance adjustment component. A laser cutter is fixedly installed on the right side of the connecting block."
[0004] Based on the description and drawings in the patent document, the support rod of the laser cutting device is fixed, the position of the connecting block and the laser cutter is adjusted by the distance adjustment component, and the glass is transported by the belt conveyor. However, the laser cutter can only be adjusted laterally, which is not very flexible. Furthermore, the belt conveyor is only suitable for small-format glass processing and not for large-format glass processing. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, a large-format glass laser cutting machine includes a frame 1, on which a cutting moving mechanism 2 and a laser component 3 are mounted. The laser component 3 includes a laser cutting head 308. The cutting moving mechanism 2 includes an X-axis linear motor motion module 201, a Z-axis servo motor motion module 202 slidably connected to the X-axis linear motor motion module 201, and the laser cutting head 308 connected to the Z-axis servo motor motion module 202. Y-axis linear motor motion modules 203 are slidably connected to both ends of the X-axis linear motor motion module 201. The laser cutting head 308 can perform three-dimensional motion under the drive of the X-axis linear motor motion module 201, the Z-axis servo motor motion module 202, and the Y-axis linear motor motion module 203. The frame 1 also includes a conveying mechanism for transporting glass, located below the laser cutting head 308. The conveying mechanism includes several belt conveyor components 4 arranged at equal intervals, with the conveying surfaces of the belt conveyor components 4 all positioned at... On the same horizontal plane, the glass is horizontally supported. The glass is input onto the frame 1 through the conveying mechanism, and after being cut by the laser cutting head 308, it is output outside the frame 1 through the conveying mechanism. The X-axis linear motor motion module 201 and the Y-axis linear motor motion module 203 are both driven by linear motors to drive the laser cutting head 308 to move back and forth and left and right. The Z-axis servo motor motion module 202 is driven by a ball screw servo motor to drive the laser cutting head 308 to move up and down. During the glass processing, the laser cutting head 308 is adjusted in the XYZ three-axis direction through the cutting moving mechanism 2. The adjustment is highly flexible, so that the laser cutting head 308 can cut in a flexible position. In addition, the multiple belt conveyor components 4 are spaced at the same distance. When transporting large-format glass, the multiple belt conveyor components 4 can provide support for the glass from multiple points, evenly distribute the weight of the glass, and ensure the flatness of the glass during the transportation process, which is suitable for large-format glass processing.
[0025] Specifically, such as Figures 2 to 4As shown, the conveying mechanism also includes a synchronous roller 7, a belt conveyor assembly 4 connected to the synchronous roller 7, a reducer 6 connected to one end of the synchronous roller 7, a motor 5 connected above the reducer 6, a motor frame 8 below the reducer 6, a bearing seat 9 rotatably connected to the other end of the synchronous roller 7, a mounting frame 10 below the bearing seat 9, the mounting frame 10 being located on one side of the frame 1, and the motor frame 8 being located on the other side of the frame 1. The belt conveyor assembly 4 includes a conveyor belt 401, a first pulley 403 connected to one end of the conveyor belt 401, and a second pulley 404 connected to the other end of the conveyor belt 401. The second pulley 404 is connected to the synchronous roller 7. 7. A support member 402 is provided between the first pulley 403 and the second pulley 404. The motor 5 drives the reducer 6 to rotate, the reducer 6 drives the synchronous roller 7 to rotate, the synchronous roller 7 drives the second pulley 404 to rotate, and the second pulley 404 drives the conveyor belt 401 and the first pulley 403 to rotate synchronously to convey the glass. Multiple belt conveyor components 4 are synchronously driven by the motor 5, which can effectively ensure the smooth conveying of the glass and make the conveying speed of multiple conveyor belts 401 synchronized, so as to avoid the inconsistent speed of each conveyor belt 401, which would cause the glass to twist or be pulled during the conveying process.
[0026] The frame 1 is provided with an installation cavity 101, and a support frame 102 is provided at the end of the installation cavity 101. Several support frames 103 are arranged in the installation cavity 101. The support member 402 can provide a certain support for the conveyor belt 401 located above, thereby enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the belt conveyor assembly 4 on the glass. The upper end of the support frame 103 is fixedly connected to the support member 402 and is used to support and lift the belt conveyor assembly 4 to avoid direct contact between the belt conveyor assembly 4 and the frame 1, which would affect the transportation effect.
[0027] The laser component 3 also includes a laser 301. A laser power supply 302 is electrically connected to one side of the laser 301. A laser beam expander 303 is correspondingly disposed on the other side of the laser 301. A first laser reflector 304 is correspondingly disposed to the side of the laser beam expander 303. A second laser reflector 305 is correspondingly disposed to the side of the first laser reflector 304. A third laser reflector 306 is correspondingly disposed to the side of the second laser reflector 305. A fourth laser reflector 307 is correspondingly disposed to the side of the third laser reflector 306. A laser cutting head 308 is correspondingly disposed below the fourth laser reflector 307. A laser vision edge finder 309 is disposed to the side of the laser cutting head 308. The laser power supply 302, laser 301, laser beam expander 303, and first laser reflector 304 are disposed above the support frame 102. The second laser reflector 305 is disposed above the X-axis linear motor motion module 201. The third laser reflector 306 and fourth laser reflector 307 are disposed on the Z-axis servo motor motion module 202. The laser vision edge finder 309 is mainly used to determine the edge position of the glass, so that the laser cutting head 308 can be accurately positioned to ensure processing accuracy. The application of the laser vision edge finder 309 in laser equipment is existing technology and will not be elaborated here. The laser 301 is fixed and does not move. The laser beam from the laser 301 is transmitted to the first laser reflector 304 via the laser beam expander 303, then to the second laser reflector 305 via the first laser reflector 304, then to the third laser reflector 306 via the second laser reflector 305, then to the fourth laser reflector 307 via the third laser reflector 306, and finally to the laser cutting head 308 via the fourth laser reflector 307. This laser transmission route can be transmitted over long distances, effectively ensuring the stability of the light path transmitted to the laser cutting head 308. The laser beam expander and laser reflector are existing technology components. This cutting machine uses multiple laser reflectors in combination to extend the laser transmission route, thereby adapting to large-format glass cutting.
[0028] The feeding end of the frame 1 is equipped with a first safety light curtain 13, and the discharging end of the frame 1 is equipped with a second safety light curtain 14. The function of the first safety light curtain 13 and the second safety light curtain 14 is to ensure that when personnel or objects enter the dangerous area during the operation of machinery or industrial equipment, the first safety light curtain 13 and the second safety light curtain 14 can emit a signal to alarm, thereby preventing accidental injury and accidents.
[0029] Several mounting plates 11 are distributed below the frame 1. The mounting plates 11 are equipped with support legs 12, which can support the frame 1 and improve the structural stability of the frame 1.
[0030] Working principle: First, the glass is placed on the conveying mechanism for input. The laser 301 is activated and transmits the laser light to the laser cutting head 308. At the same time, the X-axis linear motor motion module 201 and the Y-axis linear motor motion module 203 work together to move the laser cutting head 308 back, forth, left, and right to the cutting position. Then, the Z-axis servo motor motion module 202 moves the laser cutting head 308 downward to cut. When long-distance cutting or changing the cutting position is required, the X-axis linear motor motion module 201 and the Y-axis linear motor motion module 203 drive the laser cutting head 308 to move and cut again. After processing, the Z-axis servo motor motion module 202 moves the laser cutting head 308 upward. Through the cooperation of the X-axis linear motor motion module 201 and the Y-axis linear motor motion module 203, the laser cutting head 308 moves back to its original position.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. However, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
