[0036] The present application provides a supporting and discharging device, referring to Figures 1-5 The supporting and discharging device comprises a rack 10; a plurality of jacking mechanisms arranged side by side along a first direction, the jacking mechanism comprising a support frame 20 slidingly connected with the rack 10 along a second direction, and a jacking driving member 31 for driving the support frame 20 to move in the second direction, the support frame 20 being used for receiving a workpiece; an adjusting mechanism comprising a plurality of adjusting members 42 and a first driving member 43, the adjusting member 42 being arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the support frame 20, the adjusting member 42 being capable of abutting against the support frame 20 to limit the movement position of the support frame 20 in the second direction; and the first driving member 43 being used for driving the adjusting members 42 to move synchronously to adjust the position of the support frame 20 in the second direction when the support frame 20 abuts against the adjusting member 42.

[0037] In the embodiment, the support frame 20 is used for receiving workpieces (pipes), a plurality of support mechanisms are arranged side by side along the first direction and can be used for supporting long pipes. The adjusting member 42 is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the support frame 20 and can be used for limiting the jacking height of the support frame 20; the first driving member 43 can drive the adjusting member 42 to move synchronously, so as to synchronously adjust the jacking height of each support frame 20, and ensure that the upper end surface of the support frame 20 is kept flush when the support frame 20 supports the workpiece, thereby solving the problem that the workpiece is partially suspended and bent to affect the cutting precision. Of course, the adjusting member 42 can also jack the support frame 20 to a height suitable for the pipe diameter according to the size of the pipe diameter, so as to ensure that the pipe can be placed flat on the support frame 20.

[0038] In some embodiments, the adjusting member 42 comprises a wedge-shaped member, the wedge-shaped member is arranged along the first direction and is slidably connected with the rack 10 along the first direction, the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped member is arranged downward and abuts against the support frame 20; the adjusting mechanism further comprises a connecting member 44 connecting the first driving member 43 and each wedge-shaped member, and the first driving member 43 is used for driving each wedge-shaped member to move along the first direction.

[0039] In the embodiment, the wedge-shaped member can be slidably connected with the rack 10 through a sliding rail and the movement range of the support frame 20 in the first direction is limited by mechanical limiting. The wedge-shaped member can be arranged in the shape of a right-angled triangle, the top surface thereof is a plane and the lower surface thereof is an inclined surface. The inclined surface of the wedge-shaped member is used for abutting against the support frame 20, when the wedge-shaped member slides along the first direction, the abutting position of the support frame 20 on the inclined surface changes, the distance between the abutting position and the top surface of the wedge-shaped member changes as a reference, so as to realize the adjustment of the jacking height. In addition, the first driving member 43 can be an electric cylinder with a driving direction along the first direction, and the connecting member 44 can be a connecting rod, the connecting rod is used for connecting the driving end of the electric cylinder and the adjusting member 42, a single driving source can be used for linkage adjustment of the jacking height, so as to ensure that each support frame 20 can move to a set height and reduce the movement error.

[0040] In some embodiments, the adjusting mechanism further comprises a rolling member 41 rotatably arranged on the support frame 20, the outer circumferential surface of the rolling member 41 abuts against the inclined surface of the lower side of the wedge-shaped member, and the rotation center axis of the rolling member 41 is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction. In the embodiment, the rolling member 41 can be a bearing mounted on the support frame 20, the outer ring of the bearing abuts against the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped member, which can reduce the friction between the inclined surface and the bearing and also play a certain guiding role.

[0041] In some embodiments, the lifting drive 31 comprises a first cylinder connected to the frame 10 at one end and to the support frame 20 at the other end, and the driving direction of the first cylinder is along the second direction. In this embodiment, the stroke of the push rod of the first cylinder is adjusted by the adjusting member 42, which changes the extension length of the push rod in the second direction by mechanical limiting, thereby changing the lifting height. In addition, the cost of the device using the cylinder is also lower. Since the adjusting member 42 is in the form of a wedge, and the first drive is in the form of an electric cylinder, both can achieve stepless adjustment.

[0042] It is worth noting that the adjusting member 42 described above adjusts the lifting height by moving along the first direction in the form of a wedge, and the lifting height can also be adjusted by moving the adjusting member 42 along the second direction. Specifically, a plurality of adjusting members 42 can be connected to the frame 10 along the second direction and driven to slide (rise and fall) along the second direction by an electric cylinder.

[0043] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism further comprises a rack 32 provided on the support frame 20 along the second direction, the lifting drive comprises a first motor 33 provided on the frame 10, and the lifting mechanism further comprises a gear provided on the rotating shaft of the first motor 33, which is engaged with the rack 32. The lifting mechanism in the embodiment of the application uses a gear and rack 32 mechanism for transmission, which can also drive the support frame 20 to rise and fall. Of course, in actual operation, the first motor 33 can be driven, and after the first motor 33 rotates by a first specified angle and the torque increases, it means that the support frame 20 and the adjusting member 42 are in abutment, and the rotation can be stopped. When the first motor 33 rotates by a first specified angle and the torque does not increase suddenly, it means that the support frame 20 has not reached the position, and the first motor 33 rotates by a second specified angle until the torque increases to stop, and each support frame 20 can maintain a uniform height.

[0044] In some embodiments, the support frame 20 comprises a frame body 22 and a receiving plate 21 provided on the frame body 22, and the receiving plate 21 is used to receive the workpiece; one side of the receiving plate 21 is rotatably connected to the frame body 22, and the rotation center axis of the receiving plate 21 is parallel to the first direction; the lifting mechanism further comprises a second drive 23 for driving the receiving plate 21 to flip downward. In this embodiment, the second drive 23 can be a cylinder, one end of which is hingedly connected to the lower side of the receiving plate 21, and the other end is hingedly connected to the frame body 22. When cutting the pipe with laser, the receiving plate 21 is placed horizontally to receive the pipe material, and after cutting is completed, the second drive 23 can drive the receiving plate 21 to fold downward, so that the workpiece can slide downward into the hopper, without manual unloading. At the same time, the guiding effect of the receiving plate 21 can also reduce the collision between the pipes during unloading. The cut pipe falls into the hopper in the frame 10.

[0045] In some embodiments, the jacking mechanism further comprises a guide 24 rotatably arranged at the side of the receiving plate 21, the rotation center axis of the guide 24 intersects with the rotation center axis of the receiving plate 21; and a third driving member 25 arranged at the lower side of the receiving plate 21, used to drive the guide 24 to overturn downward. The guide 24 can be a guide plate arranged at the side of the receiving plate 21, and the receiving plate 21 can adopt a rectangular plate structure, one side of which is hingedly connected with the frame 22, and the other adjacent side is hingedly connected with the guide 24. During pipe cutting, the guide 24 is in a state of overturning downward, so that the waste and slag generated during cutting can slide along the guide 24 into the waste car 52 arranged at the side of the frame 10. The projection of the sliding direction of the cut pipe and the waste on the horizontal plane is intersected, so that the waste and the cut pipe are respectively dropped into different areas of the frame 10, thereby reducing the probability of mixing.

[0046] In some embodiments, the third driving member 25 comprises a folding cylinder, and a connecting rod connecting the driving end of the folding cylinder and the guide 24; one end of the connecting rod is hingedly connected with the driving end of the folding cylinder, and the other end is hingedly connected with the guide 24. The driving direction of the folding cylinder is along the first direction, and the second driving member 23 is arranged at the lower side of the folding cylinder and is spaced apart from the folding cylinder in the first direction. The cylinder body of the folding cylinder is fixedly arranged at the lower side of the support plate and is driven by the connecting rod. In this way, the motion interference with the second driving member 23 below can be avoided.

[0047] In some embodiments, the support and feeding device further comprises a guide roller 26 rotatably arranged on the receiving plate 21, the rotation center axis of the guide roller 26 is perpendicular to the rotation center axis of the receiving plate 21, and the guide roller 26 is used to support the workpiece. In this embodiment, a strip-shaped hole can be arranged on the receiving plate 21, and the upper side of the guide roller 26 just passes through the strip-shaped hole and protrudes on the upper surface of the receiving plate 21, so as to reduce the friction between the pipe and the receiving plate 21 when the lower clamp moves along the length direction (the first direction) of the frame 10, and avoid damaging the outer surface of the pipe. At the same time, the output load of the corresponding driving member when moving the pipe can also be reduced.

[0048] The application also provides a laser processing equipment, which comprises the support and feeding device, and a cutting mechanism 51 arranged on the frame 10 and located above the support and feeding device. The above laser processing equipment can be a laser pipe cutting machine. In the embodiment of the application, the working principles of the support and feeding device and the laser processing equipment are as follows:

[0049] The supporting and discharging device and the laser processing equipment in the embodiments of the present application comprise a rack 10, a plurality of jacking mechanisms arranged side by side along a first direction, and an adjusting mechanism. The jacking mechanism comprises a supporting frame 20 slidingly connected with the rack 10 along a second direction, and a jacking driving member 31 for driving the supporting frame 20 to move in the second direction. The adjusting mechanism comprises a plurality of adjusting members 42 and a first driving member 43. The adjusting members 42 are arranged one by one corresponding to the supporting frame 20. The adjusting members 42 can abut against the supporting frame 20 to limit the movement position of the supporting frame 20 in the second direction. The first driving member 43 is used to drive the adjusting members 42 to move synchronously to adjust the position of the supporting frame 20 when the supporting frame 20 abuts against the adjusting members 42. The adjusting members 42 can limit the jacking height of the supporting frame 20. The synchronous movement of the adjusting members 42 driven by the first driving member 43 can synchronously adjust the jacking height of the supporting frame 20, so that the receiving plate 21 can keep the same height when receiving the workpiece, and the problem that the workpiece is bent when it is suspended and affects the cutting precision is solved.
