[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] To avoid the cumbersome process of cutting metal hoses and the potential for inaccurate cutting positions, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figs. 1-3This embodiment provides a metal flexible tube length-cutting device that can be quickly adjusted to the required length before cutting the metal flexible tube, ensuring it is firmly fixed at the predetermined cutting position during cutting without any positional shift. The device includes a base 1 located within the processing area, serving as a carrier to support the mechanism mounted thereon. The base 1 is equipped with a fixing component 2 for clamping the metal flexible tube during cutting, an adjusting component 3 for adjusting the cutting position, and a cutting component 4 for cutting the metal flexible tube. Before processing the metal flexible tube, the adjusting component 3 drives the fixing component 2 to adjust its position, allowing for rapid adjustment according to the desired length without the need for frequent manual measurements. The metal flexible tube to be processed is then passed through the fixing component 2, which clamps and fixes it, ensuring it is firmly fixed at the predetermined cutting position during cutting without any positional shift, thus ensuring the precise cutting length of the metal flexible tube.

[0027] During cutting, the metal hose is prone to positional displacement due to the force applied by the cutting tool and potential vibrations, leading to inaccurate cutting positions and affecting subsequent use. Therefore, it is necessary to restrict its position during cutting. The fixing component 2 includes a limiting component 21 for fixing the cutting position of the metal hose and a limiting component 22 for fixing one end of the metal hose. The limiting component 21 includes a support block 211 slidably installed in the base 1, which serves as a carrier. A bidirectional screw 212 extending into the support block 211 is rotatably mounted on it, restricting the movement path of the clamping plate 215. A sliding groove 213 is provided on the support block 211, which restricts the movement of the clamping plate 215, preventing it from rotating with the bidirectional screw 212. Sliding blocks 214, threadedly mounted on the bidirectional screw 212 and symmetrically arranged, are slidably connected within the sliding groove 213, and these sliding blocks 214 are used for transmission of the clamping plate 215. A clamping plate 215 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 214, and a crank handle 216 is fixedly installed at the extension end of the bidirectional screw 212. The crank handle 216 is used to drive the bidirectional screw 212 and provide a convenient point of force application. The end of the clamping plate 215 is provided with a folded clamping groove 217 with an angle of 80-100 degrees. The clamping groove 217 is used to clamp metal hoses of different sizes. The limiting component 22 includes a mounting groove 221 provided on one end of the base 1. The mounting groove 221 is used to support the clamping block 222. Multiple clamping blocks 222 are slidably connected in a circular array in the mounting groove 221. Symmetrically arranged springs 223 are fixedly connected between the clamping blocks 222 and the inner wall of the mounting groove 221. The springs 223 are used to limit the movement of the clamping blocks 222. A feed inlet 11 is provided on the other end of the base 1. Both the feed inlet 11 and the mounting groove 221 are larger than the metal hose being processed, and their center positions are at the same horizontal height as the center position of the clamping groove 217, ensuring that the metal hose is clamped at a uniform height during processing and preventing skewing. Before processing the metal hose, the adjusting component 3 drives the limiting component 21 and the cutting component 4 to be adjusted to a suitable processing position. Then, the metal hose is inserted from the feed inlet 11 between the clamping plates 215 into the mounting groove 221. Under the elastic force of the spring 223, the clamping block 222 is pressed against the surface of one end for clamping and fixing. Subsequently, by rotating the crank handle 216, the bidirectional screw 212 rotates. Under the constraint of the sliding groove 213, the sliding block 214 drives the clamping plate 215 to slide closer to or away from the metal hose along the path of the bidirectional screw 212, thereby clamping and fixing it firmly at the predetermined cutting position during cutting. This prevents positional shift and ensures accurate starting point and cutting path, resulting in precise cutting lengths. It also reduces the possibility of injury to the cutting equipment and operators caused by the swinging motion during metal hose cutting, improving safety during the cutting process.

[0028] Considering that cutting flexible metal hoses requires constant adjustments to the cutting position and measurements, making the process cumbersome and inconvenient, and that manual adjustments can easily lead to deviations that affect the final cutting results, it is necessary to simplify the adjustment process and reduce manual operations. (See [reference needed]). Figs. 1-3 The positioning assembly 3 includes a reciprocating screw 31 rotatably mounted on the base 1, which restricts the movement path of the slider 33. A slide bar 32, fixedly mounted on the base 1, is provided on one side of the reciprocating screw 31. The slide bar 32 restricts the movement of the slider 33, preventing it from rotating with the reciprocating screw 31. A slider 33, sliding within the base 1, is threaded onto the reciprocating screw 31. The slider 33 connects to and transmits power to the support block 211 and the support plate 41. The slider 33 is slidably mounted on the slide bar 32, and the support block 211 is fixedly mounted on the slider 33. A motor 34 for driving the reciprocating screw 31 is fixedly mounted on the base 1. The cutting assembly 4 includes a support plate 41 fixedly mounted on the slider 33, which connects the slider 33 and the electric push rod 44. A mounting plate 42 is slidably connected to the support plate 41, which connects to the cutting machine 43. A cutting machine 43 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 42. The cutting machine 43 is used to cut the metal hose, and the cutting blade is much larger than the metal hose being processed. An electric push rod 44 for driving the cutting machine 43 to slide vertically is fixedly mounted on the support plate 41. Before processing the metal hose, the motor 34 is started, which drives the reciprocating screw 31 to rotate. Under the constraint of the slide rod 32, the slider 33 slides along the surface of the reciprocating screw 31. Driven by the slider 33, the cutting component 4 and the limiting component 21 adjust their positions accordingly. After adjusting to the appropriate position, the cutting position is fixed by the limiting component 21. Then, the electric push rod 44 is started, which drives the cutting machine 43 to move closer to or away from the metal hose to cut it. This allows for quick adjustment according to the actual required length before cutting the metal hose, eliminating the need for frequent manual measurements and other tedious operations, reducing labor intensity and skill requirements, and improving processing efficiency. Furthermore, it reduces errors caused by constant manual adjustments, resulting in a high degree of consistency in the cut length and cut surface position of the produced metal hoses, thus reducing the defect rate due to differences in cut position and improving the overall quality of the product.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] Based on Example 1, considering that metal hoses are easily damaged during clamping, affecting production quality and subsequent use, it is necessary to reduce damage to the metal hoses. See [reference needed]. Figs. 1-3A rubber pad 224 is fixedly connected to the clamping block 222. A rubber sheet 218 is fixedly connected to the clamping groove 217. When clamping the metal hose, the clamping block 222 moves the rubber pad 224 close to the surface of the metal hose to clamp it. The clamping plate 215 moves the rubber sheet 218 close to the surface of the metal hose to clamp it. The material properties of the rubber pad 224 and the rubber sheet 218 can reduce the damage caused by clamping the metal hose, improve the quality of the finished product, and increase the friction when clamping the metal hose, thus improving the clamping stability.

[0031] Considering that the adjustment component 3 requires measurement using other tools when adjusting its position, which increases the workflow, it needs to be simplified. (See [reference needed]). Figs. 1-3 A measuring plate 5 is mounted on the base 1, located at one end of the slider 33. The measuring plate 5 has a scale line 51, the length of which is greater than the processed length of the metal flexible tube, and the length of the scale line 51 includes the depth of the mounting groove 221, ensuring accurate measurement of the metal flexible tube. When adjusting the position of the slider 33, the cut length can be accurately determined by observing the scale line 51, eliminating the need for additional tools during adjustment, simplifying the operation process, and improving work efficiency.
