Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rare earth ingot cutting technology, and more specifically to a device capable of cutting irregular rare earth ingots. Background Technology

[0002] With the national strategic deployment, my country's rare metal production has been continuously increasing. Irregular rare earth ingots need to be cut into appropriate sizes, but there are significant differences in the size and surface condition of rare earth ingots.

[0003] Currently, when cutting rare earth ingots, manual visual cutting is still required. The cut size differs significantly from the actual required size, and the cutting efficiency is low. In addition, the traditional cutting method not only increases labor costs, but also poses a safety hazard due to worker negligence, such as cutting off fingers.

[0004] Therefore, developing a device with high cutting precision and good safety to cut irregular rare earth ingots is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a device with high cutting precision and good safety for cutting irregular rare earth ingots.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A device capable of cutting irregular rare earth ingots includes:

[0008] frame,

[0009] A transverse drive motor is connected to the frame; the drive end of the transverse drive motor is connected to a transverse electric push cylinder.

[0010] A lateral photoelectric sensor is located in the pushing direction of the lateral electric push cylinder and at the lateral cutting position;

[0011] A horizontal cutting shear, which is connected to the frame and located above the horizontal photoelectric sensor;

[0012] A longitudinal drive motor is connected to the frame; a longitudinal electric push cylinder is connected to the drive end of the longitudinal drive motor.

[0013] A longitudinal photoelectric sensor is located in the pushing direction of the longitudinal electric push cylinder and at the longitudinal cutting position;

[0014] A longitudinal cutting shear is connected to the frame and corresponds to the position of the longitudinal photoelectric sensor.

[0015] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is that, in this utility model, the transverse drive motor can drive the transverse electric push cylinder to push the rare earth ingot to the transverse photoelectric sensor, which can calculate the transverse dimension of the rare earth ingot. Then, the rare earth ingot is pushed to move further, and the moving distance is the transverse cutting distance. After moving to the position, the rare earth ingot is cut by the transverse cutting shears. Then, the longitudinal dimension of the rare earth ingot is cut in the same way, so as to achieve precise cutting of the rare earth ingot in both the transverse and longitudinal dimensions, thereby improving the accuracy of cutting the rare earth ingot.

[0016] Preferably, the device further includes a cylinder connected to the frame; in the initial state, the cylinder pushes the rare earth ingot to the moving end of the transverse electric push cylinder. The cylinder can move the rare earth ingot to the end of the transverse electric push cylinder, and the transverse electric push cylinder pushes the rare earth ingot to move a specified distance, thereby cutting the rare earth ingot transversely by the transverse cutting shears.

[0017] Preferably, the device further includes a controller, and the lateral drive motor, lateral photoelectric sensor, lateral cutting shears, longitudinal drive motor, longitudinal photoelectric sensor, longitudinal cutting shears, and cylinder are all connected to the controller. The controller can automate the cutting process of rare earth ingots.

[0018] Preferably, the lateral drive motor is connected to a lateral servo driver, and the lateral servo driver is connected to the controller. The controller controls the lateral drive motor through the lateral servo driver.

[0019] Preferably, the longitudinal drive motor is connected to a longitudinal servo driver, and the longitudinal servo driver is connected to the controller. The controller controls the longitudinal drive motor through the longitudinal servo driver.

[0020] Preferably, the device further includes a display screen, which is connected to the controller via Ethernet. The display screen is connected to the controller and displays the size information of the rare earth ingots.

[0021] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, this utility model discloses a device capable of cutting irregular rare earth ingots, the beneficial effects of which are:

[0022] (1) In this utility model, the horizontal photoelectric sensor and the vertical photoelectric sensor can accurately detect the position of the rare earth ingot, and the horizontal drive motor and the vertical drive motor push the rare earth ingot, thereby calculating the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the rare earth ingot; at the same time, the horizontal drive motor and the vertical drive motor can also control the moving distance of the rare earth ingot. After the rare earth ingot is moved to the designated position, the rare earth ingot is cut by the horizontal cutter and the vertical cutter respectively, which can improve the accuracy of the rare earth ingot cutting.

[0023] (2) The controller can automate the cutting process of rare earth ingots. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0031] This utility model discloses a device capable of cutting irregular rare earth ingots, comprising:

[0032] Rack 1,

[0033] A transverse drive motor 2 is connected to the frame 1; the drive end of the transverse drive motor 2 is connected to a transverse electric push cylinder 3.

[0034] The transverse photoelectric sensor 4 is located in the pushing direction of the transverse electric push cylinder 3 and at the transverse cutting position;

[0035] The horizontal cutting shear 5 is connected to the frame 1 and is located above the horizontal photoelectric sensor 4;

[0036] A longitudinal drive motor 6 is connected to the frame 1; a longitudinal electric push cylinder 7 is connected to the drive end of the longitudinal drive motor 6.

[0037] The longitudinal photoelectric sensor 8 is located in the pushing direction of the longitudinal electric push cylinder 7 and is located at the longitudinal cutting position;

[0038] The longitudinal cutting shear 9 is connected to the frame 1 and corresponds to the position of the longitudinal photoelectric sensor 8. The transverse cutting shear 5 and the longitudinal cutting shear 9 are driven by hydraulic equipment.

[0039] To further optimize the above technical solution, the equipment also includes a cylinder 10, which is connected to the frame 1. In the initial state, the cylinder 10 pushes the rare earth ingot to the moving end of the transverse electric push cylinder 3.

[0040] To further optimize the above technical solution, the equipment also includes a controller. The horizontal drive motor 2, horizontal photoelectric sensor 4, horizontal cutting shears 5, vertical drive motor 6, vertical photoelectric sensor 8, vertical cutting shears 9, and cylinder 10 are all connected to the controller. The controller is a PLC, specifically a Siemens S7-1200 CPU 1214C DC / DC / DC; the horizontal and vertical servo drivers are Delta ASD-B3-0121-L; the horizontal drive motor 2 and vertical drive motor 6 are Delta ECM-B3L-C20401RS1; and the horizontal photoelectric sensor 4 and vertical photoelectric sensor 8 are Yike OS10-AKL350CN6.

[0041] To further optimize the above technical solution, the lateral drive motor 2 is connected to a lateral servo driver, which is connected to the controller.

[0042] To further optimize the above technical solution, the longitudinal drive motor 6 is connected to a longitudinal servo driver, which is connected to the controller.

[0043] To further optimize the above technical solution, the equipment also includes a display screen 7, which communicates with the controller via Ethernet. The display screen is an HMI touchscreen, specifically the Xinje TGM765S-ET model. The entire cutting process is monitored in real time by the HMI touchscreen. Actual measured dimensional data and production requirement data are displayed in real time on the HMI touchscreen. In case of equipment malfunction, the HMI touchscreen can also display the problem in real time, assisting staff in troubleshooting.

[0044] The measurement process for rare earth ingot dimensions and cutting dimensions is as follows:

[0045] The desired horizontal dimension L0 and vertical dimension L1 of the rare earth ingot are set on the HMI touch screen. The cylinder 10 pushes the rare earth ingot to the moving end of the horizontal electric push cylinder 3. The horizontal photoelectric sensor 4 and the horizontal drive motor 2 are fixed at a distance of L2. The PLC controls the horizontal drive motor 2 to push the rare earth ingot towards the horizontal photoelectric sensor 4 through the horizontal servo driver. When the horizontal photoelectric sensor 4 detects the signal, the PLC reads the current position L3 of the horizontal drive motor 2 and can measure the horizontal dimension L4 of the rare earth ingot.

[0046] The PLC calculates the actual horizontal dimension that needs to be cut as L5, where N is the number of horizontal blocks to be cut (rounded down).

[0047] L4 = L2 - L3

[0048] N (横向裁剪块)数 =L4 / L0

[0049] L5 = L4 / N

[0050] The PLC controls the horizontal drive motor 2 to push the rare earth ingot L5 a certain distance.

[0051] The longitudinal photoelectric sensor 8 is fixed, and the PLC controls the longitudinal drive motor 6 through the longitudinal servo driver to push the rare earth ingot toward the longitudinal photoelectric sensor 8, thereby measuring the longitudinal dimension L6 of the rare earth ingot.

[0052] The PLC calculates the actual horizontal dimension that needs to be cut as L7, where n is the number of vertical blocks that need to be cut (rounded down).

[0053] n (纵向裁剪块数) =L6 / L1

[0054] L7 = L6 / n

[0055] Cutting steps:

[0056] Step 1: When the equipment starts, cylinder 10, horizontal drive motor 2 and vertical drive motor 6 return to their original positions. All programs have similar initialization return actions.

[0057] Step 2: After returning to its original position, cylinder 10 starts to move, pushing the rare earth ingot to the measurement position, and then cylinder 10 resets.

[0058] Step 3: The arrival of the rare earth ingot at the designated position is detected by the sensor. When the rare earth ingot reaches the designated position, the sensor feeds back the position signal to the PLC. The PLC controls the horizontal drive motor 2 to move the rare earth ingot toward the horizontal photoelectric sensor 4 and measures the horizontal dimension of the rare earth ingot.

[0059] Step 4: After measuring the transverse dimensions of the rare earth ingot, the PLC will control the transverse drive motor 2 to push the rare earth ingot out of the production requirement-set cutting size according to the production and cutting algorithm requirements, and then the transverse cutting shears 5 will cut it.

[0060] Step 5: The cut rare earth ingot falls into the longitudinal cutting area. The sensor sends a positioning signal to the PLC. The PLC controls the longitudinal drive motor 6 to move the rare earth ingot toward the longitudinal photoelectric sensor 8 and measures the longitudinal dimension of the rare earth ingot.

[0061] Step Six: After measuring the longitudinal dimensions of the rare earth ingot, the PLC will control the longitudinal drive motor 6 to push the rare earth ingot out of the production requirements and set the cutting dimensions, and then the longitudinal cutting shears 9 will cut it.
