Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of laser tube cutting equipment technology, and more specifically to a bed linkage material support mechanism for a side-mounted laser tube cutting machine. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of industrial manufacturing technology, laser tube cutting machines have been widely used in the metal processing field. Traditional laser tube cutting machines typically use independently installed follow-up material support devices to lift the tubes to improve processing accuracy. These follow-up material support devices are usually directly fixed to the machine bed, and each machine needs to be equipped with 2 to 3 sets of follow-up material support devices. Although this structure can meet the basic requirements of tube lifting and processing accuracy, it still has obvious shortcomings in practical applications, such as high assembly requirements and complex debugging. Since the material support devices need to be installed independently, the height and position of each set of devices need to be adjusted individually. Especially when processing tubes of different specifications, the material support height often needs to be adjusted frequently, increasing the complexity and time cost of debugging. Another issue is the large number of parts, which can easily lead to confusion and errors. Traditional designs use a wide variety of parts, with many similar components, which can easily cause errors during production and assembly, resulting in a decrease in overall assembly efficiency.
[0003] Furthermore, multiple independent follow-up material support devices require repeated configuration of drive units and limit mechanisms, increasing material and production costs. Based on these issues, the industry urgently needs a new type of follow-up material support structure to simplify the assembly process, reduce production costs, and improve the convenience of debugging and processing efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a bed linkage material support mechanism for a side-mounted laser tube cutting machine.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A bed-linked material support mechanism for a side-mounted laser tube cutting machine includes a linkage material support mechanism disposed on the tube cutting machine. The linkage material support mechanism includes multiple material support components and a linkage component that can simultaneously limit the lifting height of the multiple material support components. Each material support component includes a material support part and a drive cylinder that can drive the material support part to move vertically. The linkage component includes multiple limiting pressure plates and a drive motor that can simultaneously drive the multiple limiting pressure plates to move horizontally. The limiting pressure plates are provided with limiting grooves with inclined top surfaces. The material support part is provided with a limiting part on the side near the limiting pressure plate. The linkage component can limit the rising height of the material support part through the cooperation of the limiting groove and the limiting part.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the plurality of limiting pressure plates are connected by a horizontal connecting rod, the plurality of limiting pressure plates are connected to each other by the connecting rod, and the limiting pressure plates are provided with a first slide rail for connecting the pipe cutting machine.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the drive motor is connected to a horizontal lead screw, and the connecting rod of the linkage assembly closest to the drive motor is provided with a drive slider that connects to the lead screw.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the drive slider is provided with a second slide rail connected to the pipe cutter, the lead screw is provided with a nut, and a connecting block is provided between the drive slider and the nut.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the limiting groove is recessed on the side of the limiting pressure plate near the material support assembly, and a roller is provided at one end of the limiting part extending into the limiting groove. When the material support part moves upward, it stops by the roller contacting the top surface of the limiting groove.

[0013] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0014] The linked material-supporting mechanism controls the lifting height of multiple material-supporting components simultaneously through a single linkage component, avoiding the complexity of independently adjusting each material-supporting device and significantly reducing assembly difficulty and time. The linkage component employs a unified limit mechanism and drive device, significantly reducing the number and types of parts, while avoiding assembly errors caused by component confusion, thus lowering overall manufacturing costs. The horizontal movement of the limit pressure plate allows for quick adjustment of the lifting height of all material-supporting components without individual adjustment, simplifying debugging; the modular design makes maintenance more convenient and reduces downtime. The design of the limit groove and limit part further improves the stability and reliability of the mechanism, avoiding processing errors. This invention, while meeting processing accuracy requirements, significantly reduces usage and maintenance costs and significantly improves the overall operating efficiency of the equipment, providing a superior solution for the widespread application of laser tube cutting machines.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.
[0024] Please refer to the bed-linked material support mechanism of a side-mounted laser tube cutting machine. Figure 1-4 The system includes a linkage material support mechanism mounted on the pipe cutting machine. The pipe cutting machine is a side-mounted laser pipe cutting machine; the model and specifications of the pipe cutting machine are not limited. The linkage material support mechanism can be connected to and used with different models of pipe cutting machines. The linkage material support mechanism includes multiple material support components 100 and a linkage component 200 that can simultaneously limit the lifting height of the multiple material support components 100. The pipe cutting machine typically includes a frame and front clamping components, rear clamping components, and a cutting head mounted on the frame. When the pipe is loaded, the lifting components 100 lift the pipe, and the front and rear clamping components clamp the pipe individually or simultaneously, moving it. The cutting head then processes the pipe into segments of different lengths, thus achieving the pipe cutting process. Multiple material support components 100 and the linkage component 200 are mounted on the frame of the pipe cutting machine. As shown in the figure, the linkage material support mechanism in this embodiment has three material support components 100, but the number is not limited to this embodiment. Each material support component 100 includes a material support part 110 and a drive cylinder 120 that can drive the material support part 110 to move vertically. The three material support components 100 are spaced apart on the frame of the pipe cutting machine so that the material support part 110 can simultaneously support and lift the long strip of pipe. The linkage component 200 includes multiple limiting pressure plates 210 and a drive motor 220 that can simultaneously drive the multiple limiting pressure plates 210 to move horizontally. In this embodiment, there are three limiting pressure plates 210, and the number of limiting pressure plates 210 corresponds to the number of material support components 100 so that the limiting pressure plates 210 respectively limit the material support components 100. The limiting plate 210 is provided with a limiting groove 211 having an inclined top surface. The material support part 110 is provided with a limiting part 111 on the side near the limiting plate 210. The linkage assembly 200 can limit the rising height of the material support part 110 by cooperating with the limiting groove 211 and the limiting part 111. Specifically, when the material support part 110 moves upward, the limiting part 111 enters the limiting groove 211 until its top contacts the top surface of the limiting groove 211 and stops. Since the limiting groove 211 has an inclined top surface, the upward height of the material support part 110 can be changed by horizontally moving the position of the limiting plate 210, thereby controlling the material support height of the material support assembly 100. Compared to the previous structure where multiple follow-up material support devices were independently installed on the pipe cutting machine to support the pipe, this utility model adopts a linkage method to control the lifting height of multiple material support components 100. Since the previous multiple independently installed material support devices each needed to set their own lifting height, and the installation height needed to be readjusted or adjusted when supporting pipes of different specifications, this utility model has the advantages of convenient debugging and maintenance, reduced assembly difficulty, and more stable operation.
[0025] Furthermore, multiple limiting pressure plates 210 are connected by horizontal connecting rods 240. The three limiting pressure plates 210 are interconnected via the connecting rods 240. Each limiting pressure plate 210 is equipped with a first slide rail 212 for connecting to the pipe cutter. The limiting pressure plates 210 can move stably horizontally via the first slide rail 212, and the multiple limiting pressure plates 210 are linked together via the connecting rods 240. A drive motor 220 is connected to a horizontal lead screw 221. The connecting rod closest to the drive motor 220 on the linkage assembly 200 is equipped with a drive slider 230 connected to the lead screw 221. The drive slider 230 is equipped with a second slide rail 231 for connecting to the pipe cutter. The lead screw is equipped with a nut 222, and a connecting block 232 is provided between the drive slider 230 and the nut 222. The second slide rail 231 ensures the horizontal movement direction of the drive slider 230 and maintains stability during movement. The connecting block 232 is sleeved on the nut 222 and connected to the drive slider 230 at its rear. Block 230; drive motor 220 drives lead screw 221 to rotate, drive slider 230 to move horizontally by nut 222, realize the horizontal movement of limit plate 210; lead screw 221 is ball screw, and ball is provided between nut 222 and lead screw 221. The ball is responsible for transmitting load and realizing rolling friction. The structure of ball screw has the characteristics of high efficiency and high precision, ensuring the accuracy of drive motor 220 driving limit plate 210 to move, ensuring the accurate upward movement height of material support assembly 100, and preventing processing errors.
[0026] Furthermore, the limiting groove 211 is recessed on the side of the limiting pressure plate 210 near the material support assembly 100, ensuring that the material support part 110 can extend into the limiting groove 211. A roller 112 is provided at one end of the limiting part 111 extending into the limiting groove 211. The roller 112 can be a ball bearing. When the material support part 110 moves upward, it stops by contacting the top surface of the limiting groove 211 with the roller 112. The roller 112 ensures stable contact with the top surface of the limiting groove 211, so that the limiting pressure plate 210 stops in time. Since the stroke of the drive cylinder 120 is fixed, the lifting height must also be adjusted when processing pipes of different specifications. Therefore, the upward height of the three material support assemblies 100 can be changed simultaneously by moving the limiting pressure plate 210 on the linkage assembly 200 horizontally, making the adjustment more convenient.
[0027] Furthermore, the drive cylinder 120 is equipped with a fixing plate 121 for connecting to the pipe cutter. Through the connection of the fixing plate 121, the drive cylinder 120 can be stably installed on the pipe cutter. The material support part 110 is equipped with a fixing bracket 113 for connecting to the fixing plate 121. The fixing bracket 113 is equipped with a third slide rail 114. The fixing plate 121 is equipped with a connecting slider 122 that matches the third slide rail 114. The fixing bracket 113 can be vertically slidably connected to the fixing plate 121 through the cooperation of the third slide rail 114 and the connecting slider 122. When the drive cylinder 120... When working, the fixed bracket 113 moves vertically along the third slide rail 114; the fixed bracket 113 is part of the material support part 110, wherein the top and side of the fixed bracket 113 are respectively provided with horizontally rotatable material support rollers 115 and material support clamps 116. Usually, the material support clamp 116 is provided with vertical clamping rollers. The material support rollers 115 and material support clamps 116 can clamp the pipe to stably support it, and the roller structure ensures that the movement of the pipe is not affected after it is clamped by the front clamping assembly or the rear clamping assembly on the pipe cutter, thus maintaining the stability of the pipe during movement.
