[0031] Example:
[0032] Please see Figures 1-8 A metal nameplate laser engraving device includes a worktable 1, a lifting column 2 fixedly connected to the top of the worktable 1, a laser engraver 3 mounted on the lifting column 2, two screw jacks 4 fixedly connected to the bottom of the worktable 1, each screw jack 4 being equipped with a lifting block 5, a feeding mechanism 6 and a discharging mechanism 7 mounted on the worktable 1, with the two lifting blocks 5 corresponding to the feeding mechanism 6 and the discharging mechanism 7 respectively, a suction cup module 8 fixedly connected to the worktable 1, the suction cup module 8 being located between the feeding mechanism 6 and the discharging mechanism 7 and corresponding to the laser engraver 3, and a transfer mechanism 9 mounted on the worktable 1, the transfer mechanism 9 corresponding to the feeding mechanism 6, the discharging mechanism 7 and the suction cup module 8.
[0033] In this embodiment, stacked metal nameplates are placed inside the feeding mechanism 6. A screw jack 4 controls a lifting block 5 to lift and feed the metal nameplates inside the feeding mechanism 6. The transfer mechanism 9 transfers the metal nameplates provided in the feeding mechanism 6 to the suction cup module 8. The suction cup module 8 fixes the metal nameplates, aligning them with the laser engraver 3. The laser engraver 3 performs laser engraving on the metal nameplates. The laser engraver 3 is mounted on the lifting column 2, and its height can be adjusted via the lifting column 2 to position it at the desired laser engraving location. After the metal nameplate is laser-engraved, the transfer mechanism 9 grabs the metal nameplate from the loading mechanism 6 and transfers it to the suction cup module 8. At the same time, the transfer mechanism 9 will grab and transfer the laser-engraved metal nameplate to the unloading mechanism 7. The transfer mechanism 9 is a dual-station transfer module, which can realize the grabbing and movement of the metal nameplate in two stations, improving work efficiency. After the metal nameplate is moved into the unloading mechanism 7, another screw jack 4 controls another lifting block 5 to descend as the metal nameplate is placed in. The lifting block 5 stably picks up the processed metal nameplate and places it into the unloading mechanism 7.
[0034] Specifically, the feeding mechanism 6 includes a feeding frame 61, two first sliding plates 62, multiple first adjustment ports 63, multiple first bolt positioning holes 64, two second sliding plates 65, multiple second adjustment ports 66, and multiple second bolt positioning holes 67. The feeding frame 61 is fixedly connected to the workbench 1, and a lifting block 5 is slidably connected inside the feeding frame 61. Both first sliding plates 62 are slidably connected inside the feeding frame 61, and the two first sliding plates 62 are symmetrically distributed. The multiple first adjustment ports 63 are respectively opened at the symmetrical two ends of the feeding frame 61. Each first bolt positioning hole 64 is respectively opened on the two first slide plates 62, and the multiple first bolt positioning holes 64 are respectively corresponding to the multiple first adjustment ports 63. The two second slide plates 65 are slidably connected in the feeding frame 61, and the two second slide plates 65 are movable through the two first slide plates 62. The multiple second adjustment ports 66 are respectively opened on the symmetrical two sides of the feeding frame 61. The multiple second bolt positioning holes 67 are respectively opened on the two second slide plates 65, and the multiple second bolt positioning holes 67 are respectively corresponding to the multiple second adjustment ports 66.
[0035] In this embodiment, stacked metal nameplates are placed inside the feeding frame 61. The two first sliding plates 62 are adjusted to accommodate the length of the metal nameplates by adjusting their spacing, and the two second sliding plates 65 are adjusted to accommodate the width of the metal nameplates by adjusting their spacing. After the two first sliding plates 62 and the two second sliding plates 65 are adjusted, multiple bolts are passed through multiple first adjustment ports 63 and multiple second adjustment ports 66, so that the multiple bolts are threaded into multiple first bolt positioning holes 64 and multiple second bolt positioning holes 67 respectively. The multiple bolts are fixed in the multiple first bolt positioning holes 64 and multiple second adjustment ports 66, so that the adjusted two first sliding plates 62 and two second sliding plates 65 are kept fixed in the feeding frame 61, ensuring that when a screw jack 4 lifts a lifting block 5, the metal nameplates in the two first sliding plates 62 and two second sliding plates 65 rise stably for feeding.
[0036] Specifically, the unloading mechanism 7 includes an unloading frame 71, a first rotary pulley 72, a first driven pulley 73, a first belt 74, two upper adjusting bars 75, two sets of unloading column assemblies 76, a second rotary pulley 77, a second driven pulley 78, a second belt 79, two lower adjusting bars 710, and two unloading plates 711. The unloading frame 71 is fixedly connected to the workbench 1, and a lifting block 5 is slidably connected inside the unloading frame 71. The first rotary pulley 72 and the first driven pulley 73 are both rotatably connected to the unloading frame 71. The first belt 74 is drivingly connected between the first rotary pulley 72 and the first driven pulley 73. The two upper adjusting bars 75 are both fixedly connected to the first belt 74, and the connection between the two upper adjusting bars 75 and the first belt 74 is... The joints are staggered. Two sets of feed column assemblies 76 are fixedly connected to the adjacent ends of two upper adjustment strips 75, and the two sets of feed column assemblies 76 are located inside the feed frame 71. The second knob pulley 77 and the second driven pulley 78 are both rotatably connected to the feed frame 71. The second belt 79 is driven between the second knob pulley 77 and the second driven pulley 78. The two lower adjustment strips 710 are both fixedly connected to the second belt 79 and move through the feed frame 71. The joints between the two lower adjustment strips 710 and the second belt 79 are staggered. The two feed plates 711 are fixedly connected to the two lower adjustment strips 710, and the two feed plates 711 are located inside the feed frame 71 and correspond to the two sets of feed column assemblies 76.
[0037] In this embodiment, the transfer mechanism 9 places the laser-engraved metal nameplate into the unloading frame 71. By rotating the first knob pulley 72, the first belt 74 is driven, which drives the two upper adjustment strips 75 to adjust the spacing. The adjusted upper adjustment strips 75 make the two sets of unloading column assemblies 76 adapt to the width of the metal nameplate. By rotating the second knob pulley 77, the second belt 79 is driven, which drives the two lower adjustment strips 710 to adjust the spacing. The adjusted lower adjustment strips 710 make the two unloading plates 711 adapt to the length of the nameplate. The two unloading plates 711 and the two sets of unloading column assemblies 76 place the metal nameplate in the center of the unloading frame 71, making the metal nameplate stacked neatly. When the metal nameplate is stacked, a screw jack 4 drives a lifting block 5 to descend. The lifting block 5 receives the descending metal nameplate, so that the metal nameplate is smoothly placed between the two unloading plates 711 and the two sets of unloading column assemblies 76 for stacking.
[0038] Specifically, the transfer mechanism 9 includes a slide rail module 91, a lifting cylinder 92, a transfer plate 93, and a suction cup assembly 94. The slide rail module 91 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the worktable 1. The lifting cylinder 92 is slidably connected to the slide rail module 91. The transfer plate 93 is fixedly connected to the output end of the lifting cylinder 92 and extends through to the upper side of the worktable 1. The suction cup assembly 94 is fixedly connected to the transfer plate 93 and corresponds to the loading frame 61, the unloading frame 71, and the suction cup module 8.
[0039] In this embodiment, the slide rail module 91 controls the movement of the lifting cylinder 92, and the lifting cylinder 92 controls the lifting of the transfer plate 93, so that the suction cup assembly 94 can move axially in two directions, thereby transporting the metal nameplate, moving the metal nameplate from the loading frame 61 to the suction cup module 8, and then from the suction cup module 8 to the unloading frame 71.
[0040] Specifically, two sensors 10 are fixedly connected to the workbench 1, and the two sensors 10 correspond to the loading frame 61 and the unloading frame 71 respectively.
[0041] In this embodiment, two sensors 10 are used to detect metal nameplates, which facilitates the two screw jacks 4 to control the two lifting blocks 5 to lift and unload the metal nameplates.
[0042] Specifically, each of the two first sliding plates 62 has a first arc-shaped groove 11 at one end that is close to each other, and each of the two upper adjusting strips 75 has a second arc-shaped groove 12 at one end that is close to each other.
[0043] In this embodiment, the two first arc-shaped grooves 11 and the two second arc-shaped grooves 12 can be adapted to the arc-shaped nameplate, so that the arc-shaped nameplate can be stably loaded and unloaded in the loading frame 61 and the unloading frame 71.
[0044] Working principle: By placing stacked metal nameplates within two first sliding plates 62 and two second sliding plates 65, a screw jack 4 controls a lifting block 5 to rise. The lifting block 5 slides upward within the loading frame 61, raising and feeding the metal nameplates. The slide rail module 91 controls the movement of the lifting cylinder 92, which in turn controls the lifting of the transfer plate 93. This allows the suction cup assembly 94 to move axially in two directions, thus transporting the metal nameplates from the loading frame 61 onto the suction cup module 8. The suction cup module 8 then picks up the metal nameplates. The attachment is fixed so that the metal nameplate corresponds to the laser engraver 3. The laser engraver 3 performs laser engraving on the metal nameplate. After the metal nameplate is laser engraved, the suction cup assembly 94 grabs the metal nameplate in the feeding mechanism 6 again and transfers it to the suction cup module 8. At the same time, the suction cup assembly 94 will grab and transfer the laser-engraved metal nameplate between the two unloading plates 711 and the two sets of unloading column assemblies 76. Another screw jack 4 controls another lifting block 5 to descend as the metal nameplate is placed in. The lifting block 5 slides down in the unloading frame 71 and stably stacks and picks up the processed metal nameplate.
[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model based on the technical solution and its improved concept should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
