[0023] 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.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a combined tool setting device, including a laser tool setting mechanism 1. The laser tool setting mechanism 1 includes a first mounting plate 101. A first telescopic rod 103 is fixedly installed on one side of the first mounting plate 101. A scale line 104 is fixedly installed at the front end of the first telescopic rod 103. A second mounting plate 105 is fixedly installed on one side of the first telescopic rod 103. A laser generator 102 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the second mounting plate 105 and the first mounting plate 101. A second telescopic rod 102 is fixedly installed at the rear end of both the first mounting plate 101 and the second mounting plate 105. The telescopic rod 107 has a protective cover 108 fixedly installed on the upper end of the two second telescopic rods 107. A signal receiving box 110 is fixedly installed at the rear end of one side of the second mounting plate 105. A signal processing box 111 is fixedly installed at the front end of one side of the second mounting plate 105. A control panel 112 is fixedly installed at the front end of the signal processing box 111. A protective cover 113 is hinged to one side of the front end of the control panel 112. A power cord 106 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the other side of the first mounting plate 101. A first mounting block 109 is fixedly installed at the middle of the rear end of the two protective covers 108.

[0025] Specifically, mounting plate 101, as the core load-bearing component, is made of aluminum alloy, achieving lightweight design while ensuring structural strength. One side of mounting plate 101 is fixed to telescopic rod 103. The telescopic rod's extension stroke is calibrated, and the scale lines 104 are laser-etched for clarity and durability. Each scale division represents a displacement of 0.1mm, allowing operators to intuitively and accurately read the extension length of the telescopic rod, facilitating distance measurement during tool setting. Mounting plate 105, located on one side of telescopic rod 103, works in conjunction with mounting plate 101. Both mounting plates have an advanced semiconductor laser generator 102 fixed to their upper ends. The emitted laser beam has a stable wavelength of 650nm, with an extremely small spot size and concentrated energy, accurately projecting onto the tool surface and providing a high-quality light source for subsequent signal acquisition. Telescopic rod 107... The protective cover 108 is designed to facilitate its raising and lowering. When the laser generator 102 needs inspection, it can be raised. The protective cover 108 is made of transparent polycarbonate, offering excellent impact resistance and optical transparency. It does not obstruct the normal transmission of the laser beam and effectively prevents external dust, moisture, and machining debris from entering the tool setter, protecting the internal precision electronic components. Mounting block 109 facilitates the fixed installation of the protective cover 108 and telescopic rod 107. The control panel 112 uses a touch-screen LCD display, allowing operators to easily set various parameters and switch measurement modes with a simple touch. The protective cover 113 is made of soft rubber, fitting snugly against the screen edge, providing comprehensive protection when the control panel 112 is not in use, and easily opening when needed. The power cord 106 facilitates the replenishment of the device's overall power supply.

[0026] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 The lower end of the laser tool setting device mechanism 1 is fixedly provided with a mounting mechanism 2. The mounting mechanism 2 includes a mounting base plate 201. Slide grooves 207 are opened on both sides of the upper end of the mounting base plate 201. Slider 206 is slidably arranged inside the two slide grooves 207. Spring dampers 205 are hinged to the front ends of the two sliders 206. Mounting rod 202 is fixedly arranged in the middle of the upper end of the mounting base plate 201. Second mounting blocks 203 are fixedly arranged at the front and rear ends of both sides of the mounting base plate 201. Mounting screws 204 are threaded on the upper ends of multiple second mounting blocks 203.

[0027] Specifically, the mounting base 201 facilitates the overall installation of the device. The slide groove 207 facilitates the sliding of the slider 206. A spring damper 205 is hinged to the upper end of the slider 206. When the tool setter is subjected to an unexpected lateral impact, the spring damper 205 can respond quickly. The spring absorbs part of the impact force, and at the same time, the damper and the slider 206 quickly dissipate the vibration energy, preventing the impact force from being transmitted to the internal precision components, thus providing reliable buffer protection for the tool setter. The mounting rod 202 facilitates the fixing of the upper telescopic rod 103, and the second mounting block 203 facilitates its use with the mounting screw 204, which is conducive to the stable installation of the entire device.

[0028] Supplementary working principle: When using this combined tool setter, firstly, the mounting mechanism 2 is placed in the designated position on the machine tool through the mounting base plate 201. The device is firmly fixed by the cooperation of the mounting screw 204 and the second mounting block 203. The mounting rod 202 provides reliable support for the upper laser tool setter mechanism 1, ensuring that it is in a precise working position. When the laser tool setter mechanism 1 is turned on, the laser generator 102 located on the upper end of the first mounting plate 101 and the second mounting plate 105 emits a laser beam with a wavelength stabilized at 650nm. The beam is precisely projected onto the tool surface. The laser signal reflected back by the tool is captured by the signal receiving box 110 and then transmitted to the signal processing box 111. The signal processing box 111, with its built-in high-precision algorithm, quickly analyzes and processes the signal, and calculates the precise position information of the tool relative to the tool setter, as well as the tool surface condition information.

[0029] Secondly, operators can conveniently view these data through the control screen 112 and switch between different measurement modes using touch operation according to processing needs. During tool setting, if it is necessary to adjust the distance between the tool setter and the tool, it can be achieved by operating the first telescopic rod 103. When the first telescopic rod 103 extends or retracts, the clear scale line 104 on its side allows the operator to accurately grasp the extension length, thereby precisely controlling the tool setting distance. Each scale represents a displacement of 0.1mm. Furthermore, when encountering unexpected lateral impact, the spring damper 205 in the mounting mechanism 2 reacts quickly and works in conjunction with the slider 206 to buffer and reduce shock, protecting the internal core components from damage.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing 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. 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.
