Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of profilograph technology, specifically a profilograph. Background Technology

[0002] A profilometer is a specialized device used to replicate, simulate, or process specific shapes, widely applied in architectural design, construction, and decoration. Its core function is to transform the complex shapes of design drawings or physical models into precisely machinable templates or data, thereby improving construction efficiency and precision. For example, in building construction, when tiling or flooring against irregularly shaped walls, a profilometer is used to define the shape of the wall. The tiles or flooring are then cut according to the shape defined by the profilometer before being laid. This effectively improves the efficiency of tiling or flooring near irregularly shaped walls.

[0003] Commonly used mechanical profilometers typically include a guide plate with a long, narrow channel. Several thin profiling pieces are vertically inserted into this channel, closely spaced and positioned using friction. In use, force is applied to the profiling pieces from their rear ends, causing their front ends to press against the desired shape. This creates the shape at the desired location on both ends of the profiling piece.

[0004] However, when using this type of mechanical profilator, if the profiling plates are too tightly packed together, it will be difficult to push it; if the profiling plates are too loosely packed together, they may move unexpectedly after profiling is completed. Therefore, the clamping force between the profiling plates is difficult to control. Even if it is well controlled initially, it may become too tight or too loose after a period of use due to factors such as thermal expansion and contraction and wear. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a profiling device that has a clamping state and a releasing state. The profiling piece on the profiling device can be manually controlled to be in a clamped positioning state or a movable releasing state, thereby solving the problem of difficulty in setting a suitable clamping force between existing profiling devices.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a profilographer, comprising a guide plate with a strip-shaped channel, wherein a plurality of overlapping profilographer pieces are vertically inserted into the strip-shaped channel, and a tension adjustment component is provided at one end of the guide plate. The tension adjustment component includes a housing fixed to the guide plate, wherein a sliding channel facing the profilographer pieces is provided inside the housing, and a movable plug is slidably disposed in the sliding channel. An inclined surface is provided at one end of the sliding channel near the inner side of the housing, and a knob is slidably disposed on the housing. The knob is connected to a top block located between the inclined surface and the movable plug via a connecting rod. The knob is actuated to move the top block on the inclined surface to push the movable plug against the profilographer piece on the side near the movable plug or to release the movable plug on the inclined surface away from the movable plug. This type of profilographer can move the top block by turning a knob. The movement of the top block pushes the movable plug to tighten or loosen the profilographer plate. This allows the profilographer plate to be loosened when profiling is needed for easy profiling, and the profilographer plate to be tightened when profiling is complete. The top block is clamped between the inclined surface and the movable plug and kept in a tightened state, making it convenient to use.

[0007] In the above technical solution, preferably, the housing is provided with an insertion hole, and the guide plate is inserted into the insertion hole and fixed with screws. This structure facilitates the assembly of the tension adjustment component and the guide plate.

[0008] In the above technical solution, preferably, the side of the housing away from the guide plate has an insertion port facing the same direction as the guide plate. An end plate is inserted into the insertion port, and the end plate is fixed inside the housing by a positioning pin. The inclined surface is provided on the end plate. This structure facilitates the assembly of the tension adjustment assembly.

[0009] In the above technical solution, preferably, the inclined surface gradually approaches the movable plug from the inside of the housing outwards. A groove is provided on the inclined surface, and the movable plug slides into the groove for positioning. The movable plug is then pushed out to clamp the contour piece. This structure ensures that the top block can be stably positioned when moved into the groove, that is, stably positioned while clamping the contour piece.

[0010] In the above technical solution, preferably, a narrow opening is formed between the inclined surface and the inner sidewall of the sliding channel, and the toggle switch and the top block are connected by a connecting rod passing through the narrow opening, wherein the top block is larger than the narrow opening. This structure allows the top block to be positioned within the narrow opening, preventing it from disengaging from the position between the inclined surface and the movable plug.

[0011] In the above technical solution, preferably, the movable plug has a limiting protrusion larger than the sliding channel at one end inside the housing. This structure prevents the movable plug from disengaging from the sliding channel after the tension adjustment assembly is assembled, facilitating subsequent processing of assembling the tension adjustment assembly onto the guide plate.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: When in use, this profiling device can move the top block by turning the knob. The movement of the top block pushes the movable plug to tighten or loosen the profiling piece, so that the profiling piece can be loosened when profiling is needed for easy profiling, and the profiling piece can be tightened when profiling is completed. The top block is clamped between the inclined surface and the movable plug and kept in a tightened state, thus making it convenient to use. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments: See below Figures 1 to 6A profilographer includes a guide plate 2 with a strip channel 1. A plurality of overlapping profilographer pieces 3 are vertically inserted into the strip channel 1. In this embodiment, the guide plate 2 has two parallel strip channels 1. The profilographer pieces 3 are movably inserted into the two strip channels 1. One end of the guide plate 2 is provided with a tension adjustment component 4. The tension adjustment component 4 includes a housing 5 fixed on the guide plate 2. The housing 5 is provided with a sliding channel 6 facing the profilographer piece 3. A movable plug 7 is slidably disposed in the sliding channel 6. An inclined surface 8 is provided at one end of the sliding channel 6 near the inner side of the housing 5. A knob 9 is slidably disposed on the housing 5. The knob 9 is connected to a top block 11 located between the inclined surface 8 and the movable plug 7 through a connecting rod 10. The knob 9 is turned to move the top block 11 on the inclined surface 8 to push the movable plug 7 out on the side near the movable plug 7 to press against the profilographer piece 3 or to release the movable plug 7 on the inclined surface 8 away from the movable plug 7. When in use, this profiling device can move the top block 11 by turning the knob 9. The movement of the top block 11 pushes the movable plug 7 to tighten or loosen the profiling piece 3. Thus, when profiling is needed, the profiling piece 3 can be loosened for easy profiling. When profiling is completed, the profiling piece 3 is tightened. The top block 11 is clamped between the inclined surface 8 and the movable plug 7 and kept in a tightened state, thus making it convenient to use.

[0020] In this embodiment, the housing 5 is provided with an insertion hole 12, and the guide plate 2 is inserted into the insertion hole 12 and fixed with screws. This structure facilitates the assembly of the tension adjustment component 4 and the guide plate 2.

[0021] In this embodiment, a mounting port 13, facing the same direction as the guide plate 2, is provided on the side of the housing 5 away from the guide plate 2. An end plate 14 is inserted into the mounting port 13 and fixed inside the housing 5 by a positioning pin. An inclined surface 8 is provided on the end plate 14. This structure facilitates the assembly of the tension adjustment component 4. A movable space for a knob 9 is provided between the housing 5 and the end plate 14. The knob 9 can move within this movable space to move the top block 11.

[0022] In this embodiment, the inclined surface 8 gradually approaches the movable plug 7 from the inside of the housing 5 outwards. A groove 15 is provided on the inclined surface 8. The movable plug 7 slides into the groove 15 for limiting its position, and the movable plug 7 is pushed out to clamp the contour piece 3. This structure allows the top block 11 to be stably positioned when it moves into the groove 15, that is, it can be stably positioned when it is clamping the contour piece 3.

[0023] In this embodiment, a narrow opening 16 is formed between the inclined surface 8 and the inner sidewall of the sliding channel 6. The toggle switch 9 and the top block 11 are connected by a connecting rod 10 passing through the narrow opening 16. The top block 11 is larger than the narrow opening 16. This structure can limit the top block 11 through the narrow opening 16, preventing the top block 11 from disengaging from the position between the inclined surface 8 and the movable plug 7.

[0024] In this embodiment, the movable plug 7 is provided with a limiting protrusion 17 larger than the sliding channel 6 at one end inside the housing 5. This structure can prevent the movable plug 7 from disengaging from the sliding channel 6 after the tension adjustment assembly 4 is assembled, so as to facilitate the subsequent processing of assembling the tension adjustment assembly 4 onto the guide plate 2.

[0025] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
