[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] Please see Figure 1-6A laser marking device includes a worktable 1, a laser marking unit 2 connected to the worktable 1, and a fixing module 3 for fixing a shoe insole mold. The fixing module 3 is provided with a positioning post 31, and the worktable 1 is provided with a through hole 11 for the positioning post 31 to pass through. The fixing module 3 is detachably connected to the through hole 11 through the positioning post 31. The laser marking unit 2 is used to laser mark the workpiece located on the shoe insole mold. The device also includes a clamping unit 4, which is rotatably connected to the worktable 1. The side of the positioning post 31 is provided with a longitudinal groove 311 for accommodating the clamping unit 4 and a transverse groove 312 communicating with the longitudinal groove 311. The longitudinal groove 311 is arranged vertically. When the clamping unit 4 is located in the transverse groove 312, the clamping unit 4 locks the fixing module 3 onto the worktable 1. When the clamping unit 4 is located in the longitudinal groove 311, the fixing module 3 can move upward and separate from the clamping unit 4.

[0027] In practical applications, workers can fix the insole mold onto the fixing module 3 and then fix the fixing module 3 onto the worktable 1. Specifically, the positioning pin 31 is passed through the through hole 11, and by rotating the clamping unit 4, it moves from the longitudinal groove 311 to the transverse groove 312, thereby fixing the fixing module 3 onto the worktable 1, completing the fixing step. Then, the workpiece is placed on the insole mold and laser-marked by the laser marking unit 2. Specifically, the laser marking unit 2 is a laser marking machine. When it is necessary to change to different products, the clamping unit 4 is rotated into the longitudinal groove 311, and... The fixing module 3 is removed from the workbench 1, and then the insole mold corresponding to different products is re-fixed. The above fixing steps are repeated, and laser marking can be performed by the laser marking unit 2. In this way, it is convenient for the staff to fix and change different insole molds, and no positioning is required after replacement, thereby improving work efficiency. Specifically, the laser marking file in the laser marking machine is a fixed coordinate, and the corresponding coordinate is the coordinate on the insole mold. Therefore, as long as the center position of the insole mold is ensured, that is, the insole mold is fixed by fixing the insole mold through the fixing module 3, there is no need to repeat the positioning.

[0028] It should be noted that the laser marking unit 2 is existing technology, which can be found in patent number CN206839412U, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0029] Preferably, the through hole 11 is provided with a limiting groove 111, and the positioning post 31 is provided with limiting parts 313 on both sides that match the limiting groove 111. The limiting parts 313 are located in the groove of the limiting part 313 and can be used to prevent the fixing module 3 from rotating.

[0030] In the above design, the cooperation between the limiting groove 111 and the limiting part 313 can prevent the fixed module 3 from rotating. Then, the positioning column 31 is fixed by the clamping unit 4 to prevent the positioning column from moving up or down, thus completely fixing the fixed module 3 on the worktable 1. This can prevent the fixed module 3 from shifting during the marking process, thereby improving the stability of the marking process.

[0031] Preferably, the clamping unit 4 includes a support rod 41 and a handle 42. One end of the support rod 41 is rotatably connected to the workbench 1, and the other end is connected to the handle 42. The workbench 1 is provided with a slide rail 12. The handle 42 is provided with a slider 421 that matches the slide rail 12. The handle 42 is provided with a groove 422 for the slider 421 to slide along the length of the handle 42. The slider 421 is slidably connected in the slide rail 12.

[0032] When the handle 42 is located in the transverse groove 312, the handle 42 locks the fixing module 3 onto the worktable 1; when the handle 42 is located in the longitudinal groove 311, the fixing module 3 can move upward and separate from the clamping unit 4.

[0033] With the above design, the operator can rotate the handle 42. Specifically, when the positioning post 31 passes through the through hole 11, the handle 42 is located in the longitudinal groove 311. When the workbench 1 supports the fixing module 3, the handle 42 can be rotated from the longitudinal groove 311 to the transverse groove 312, thereby better fixing the fixing module 3 on the workbench 1, thus improving the marking quality. In addition, the design of the handle 42 makes it convenient for the operator to operate directly, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0034] In this embodiment, the cooperation between the slider 421 and the slide rail 12 can limit the rotation angle of the handle 42. Specifically, when the operator rotates the handle 42 to the leftmost end of the slide rail 12, the handle 42 and the longitudinal groove 311 are matched, which makes it easier for the operator to determine the relative position of the handle 42 and the longitudinal groove 311, thus facilitating the operator's operation.

[0035] Preferably, the slider 421 has a fixing hole 4211 at the top, and the worktable 1 has a telescopic rod 13. When one end of the telescopic rod 13 is located in the fixing hole 4211, the slider 421 is fixed in the slide rail 12.

[0036] In the above design, when the telescopic rod 13 is located in the fixing hole 4211, the slider 421 is fixed in the slide rail 12, and the handle 42 is fixed at the same time. Specifically, when the handle 42 is located in the transverse groove 312, the position of the handle 42 needs to be fixed. The handle 42 can be fixed when the telescopic rod 13 is located in the fixing hole 4211. During laser marking, the fixed module 3 can be prevented from moving, thus improving the quality of laser marking.

[0037] Preferably, the telescopic rod 13 is provided with a limiting block 131, which can be pulled to drive the telescopic rod 13 to extend or retract.

[0038] In this embodiment, the operator can pull the limiting block 131 to retract the telescopic rod 13 to prevent interference when the handle 42 moves to the position of the telescopic rod 13. When the limiting block 131 is released, the telescopic rod 13 can extend back to its original state and be located in the fixing hole 4211, thereby fixing the handle 42. On the other hand, when the telescopic rod 13 is located in the fixing hole 4211, the operator can pull the limiting block 131 to retract the telescopic rod 13 to facilitate rotating the handle 42. Therefore, the limiting block 131 can facilitate the operator to fix or rotate the handle 42.

[0039] Preferably, the fixing module 3 is a positioning plate 32 for placing the insole mold, the positioning plate 32 is provided with a positioning groove 33 for placing the insole mold, the positioning post 31 is located at the bottom of the positioning plate 32, and the laser marking unit 2 is located above the positioning plate 32.

[0040] In this embodiment, the insole mold can be placed in the positioning groove 33. In particular, the insole mold can be designed in the shape of the positioning groove 33, so that the insole mold can be directly fixed in the positioning groove 33. On the other hand, the positioning groove 33 of the positioning plate 32 can also be designed to match the shape of the insole mold. Only by changing the positioning plate 32 with different positioning grooves 33, the corresponding insole mold can be fixed. The laser marking unit 2 is located on the positioning plate 32, which is beneficial to perform laser marking without repeating the positioning after changing different insole molds.

[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
