Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cutting, specifically to an automatic feeding and cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] In modern manufacturing, after producing sheet metal such as steel and aluminum plates, they need to be cut to meet specific requirements. Currently, the most widely used method is plasma flame cutting. This method uses an electric arc and a high-pressure gas stream to heat the metal to its melting point, and then uses a high-speed gas stream to blow away the molten metal, thus achieving the cut. However, in practice, because plasma cutting requires support at the bottom of the sheet metal, the high-speed gas stream can easily blow the molten metal through the cut onto the support structure, causing metal accumulation. This can shorten the lifespan of the support structure and lead to tilting of the sheet metal support, resulting in decreased cutting accuracy. The current solution is for workers to use shovels or other tools to remove the scrap metal from the support structure. This method not only increases the labor intensity of the workers but also reduces the efficiency of sheet metal cutting and extends the operation time.

[0003] Therefore, this application designs an automatic feeding and cutting device that can automatically clean scrap metal from a support structure. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic feeding and cutting device to solve the problems mentioned above.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic feeding and cutting device, comprising a bidirectional robotic arm, a plasma cutting section, and a control console. The plasma cutting section is slidably connected to the bidirectional robotic arm, and the control console is electrically connected to the bidirectional robotic arm and the plasma cutting section. The device is characterized by further comprising a base frame, a conveyor belt, a support mechanism, and a cleaning mechanism for removing molten metal from the support mechanism. The base frame is mounted on the ground, with its two sides slidably connected to both ends of the bidirectional robotic arm. The support mechanism is inserted into the inner wall of the base frame, and the cleaning mechanism is slidably connected to the support mechanism. The conveyor belt is slidably connected to both sides of the base frame. A cleaning disc is inserted into the upper end of the cleaning mechanism, and claw teeth are fixedly arranged on the outer periphery of the cleaning disc. The cleaning mechanism drives the cleaning disc to rotate while simultaneously displacing along the support mechanism. The rotation of the cleaning disc causes the claw teeth to break up and clean the scrap metal at the upper end of the support mechanism.

[0006] The cleaning mechanism moves along the support structure during rotation to crush and clean the scrap metal at the top of the support structure. This effectively prevents scrap metal from accumulating at the top of the support structure, which could lead to plate tilting or shorten the lifespan of the support structure. It eliminates the need for manual cleaning by operators, improving work efficiency and reducing the labor intensity of operators.

[0007] Furthermore, the base frame is provided with slide rails at both ends, and the conveyor belt is electrically slidably connected to the base frame through the slide rails. The support mechanism includes a cross frame and a support plate. The two ends of the cross frame are welded to the inner wall of the base frame. The cross frame is provided with two symmetrical sets. The lower end of the support plate is inserted into the cross frame. The support plate is provided with an array of sets along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt. The support plate has a stepped design, and the upper width of the support plate is smaller than the lower width.

[0008] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism includes a rolling gear, a chute, a rack, and a drive assembly; the chute is opened on the side of the support plate, the lower end of the rack is welded to the bottom wall of the chute, the rolling gear meshes with the rack, the drive assembly passes through the cleaning disc and is rotatably connected to the rolling gear, the cleaning disc is set in two symmetrical sets, and the middle of the cleaning disc is inserted into the rolling gear.

[0009] The cleaning disc and claws effectively crush and eject the scrap metal on the upper part of the support plate, reducing the amount of scrap metal residue on the upper part of the support plate, thus improving the scrap metal cleaning effect and reducing the need for repeated cleaning processes.

[0010] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a motor, a connecting plate, a screw, a threaded sleeve, and a connecting column. The connecting plate is bolted to the inner wall of the base frame, one end of the motor is bolted to the connecting plate, one end of the screw is inserted into the motor output end, the threaded sleeve is placed on the outer circumference of the screw, and the threaded sleeve is threadedly connected to the screw. The end of the screw away from the motor is connected to the inner wall of the base frame through the connecting plate. One end of the connecting column is inserted into the threaded sleeve, and the other end of the connecting column is rotatably connected to the rolling gears passing through the cleaning disc. The drive assembly is configured as two symmetrically arranged sets. The drive assembly also includes a connecting rod, and the rolling gears are rotatably connected through the connecting rod so that the drive assembly synchronously drives all the rolling gears to move.

[0011] Compared with existing technologies, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] This utility model provides an automatic feeding and cutting device. The cleaning mechanism moves along the support mechanism during rotation to crush and clean the scrap metal at the upper end of the support mechanism. This effectively prevents scrap metal from accumulating at the upper end of the support mechanism, which could lead to the tilting of the plate or a shortened lifespan of the support mechanism. It eliminates the need for manual cleaning by operators, thereby improving work efficiency and reducing the labor intensity of operators.

[0013] The cleaning disc and claws effectively crush and eject the scrap metal on the upper part of the support plate, reducing the amount of scrap metal residue on the upper part of the support plate, thus improving the scrap metal cleaning effect and reducing the need for repeated cleaning processes.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] 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.

[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 6As shown, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic feeding and cutting device, including a bidirectional robotic arm 1, a plasma cutting section 2, and a control console 3. The plasma cutting section 2 is slidably connected to the bidirectional robotic arm 1, and the control console 3 is electrically connected to the bidirectional robotic arm 1 and the plasma cutting section 2. The device is characterized by further including a base frame 4, a conveyor belt 5, a support mechanism 6, and a cleaning mechanism 7 for removing molten metal from the support mechanism 6. The base frame 4 is mounted on the ground, and its two sides are slidably connected to both ends of the bidirectional robotic arm 1. The support mechanism 6 is inserted into the inner wall of the base frame 4, and the cleaning mechanism 7 is slidably connected to the support mechanism 6. The conveyor belt 5 is slidably connected to both sides of the base frame 4. A cleaning disc 8 is inserted into the upper end of the cleaning mechanism 7, and claw teeth 9 are fixedly arranged on the outer periphery of the cleaning disc 8. The cleaning mechanism 7 drives the cleaning disc 8 to rotate while moving along the support mechanism 6. The rotation of the cleaning disc 8 drives the claw teeth 9 to break and clean the scrap metal at the upper end of the support mechanism 6.

[0023] See Figure 3 The base frame 4 has slide rails 41 at both ends, and the conveyor belt 5 is electrically slidably connected to the base frame 4 through the slide rails 41. Both ends of the base frame 4 can be connected to the production line conveying mechanism. When the sheet material is conveyed to the top of the base frame 4, the conveyor belt 5 slides upward and protrudes to the upper edge of the base frame 4 through the electric sliding connection with the base frame 4, receiving the sheet material and conveying it to the middle position. Then, it slides downward in the opposite direction, so that the sheet material is placed on the support mechanism 6 to wait for cutting. After cutting, the conveyor belt 5 moves upward again to support the cut sheet material and convey it out of the device.

[0024] As another embodiment, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the support mechanism 6 includes a crossbeam 61 and a support plate 62. The crossbeam 61 is welded to the inner wall of the base frame 4 at both ends. Two symmetrical sets of crossbeams 61 are arranged. The lower end of the support plate 62 is inserted into the crossbeam 61, and several sets of support plates 62 are arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 5. The support plate 62 has a stepped design, with the upper width being smaller than the lower width. When the sheet material is conveyed to the center by the conveyor belt 5, the support plate 62 supports the sheet material. The upper end of the support plate 62 is made of a high-friction material to prevent displacement and deflection of the sheet material during the cutting process.

[0025] See Figure 4 as well as Figure 5The cleaning mechanism 7 includes a rolling gear 71, a slide 72, a rack 73, and a drive assembly 74. The slide 72 is located on the side of the support plate 62. The lower end of the rack 73 is welded to the bottom wall of the slide 72. The rolling gear 71 meshes with the rack 73. The drive assembly 74 passes through the cleaning disc 8 and is rotatably connected to the rolling gear 71. When the support plate 62 needs to be cleaned, the drive assembly 74 is activated, causing the drive assembly 74 to drive the rolling gear 71 to move along the slide 72. This causes the rolling gear 71 to rotate due to its meshing with the rack 73. The rolling gear 71 synchronously drives the cleaning disc 8 to rotate. The cleaning disc 8 drives the claw teeth 9 to perform a circular motion. The circular motion of the claw teeth 9 breaks and throws out the scrap metal on the upper part of the support plate 62.

[0026] See Figure 4 The cleaning discs 8 are arranged in two symmetrical sets, with the middle of each disc inserted into the rolling gear 71. By setting cleaning discs 8 on both sides of the support plate 62, the cleaning operation is carried out simultaneously on both sides of the support plate 62 during the cleaning process. Due to the synchronous crushing effect at both ends, scrap metal blocks can be prevented from remaining at the top of the support plate 62.

[0027] See Figure 4 The drive assembly 74 includes a motor 741, a connecting plate 742, a screw 743, a threaded sleeve 744, and a connecting post 745. The connecting plate 742 is bolted to the inner wall of the base frame 4. One end of the motor 741 is bolted to the connecting plate 742. One end of the screw 743 is inserted into the output end of the motor 741. The threaded sleeve 744 is fitted onto the outer circumference of the screw 743 and is threadedly connected to the screw 743. The end of the screw 743 away from the motor 741 is connected to the inner wall of the base frame 4 through the connecting plate 742. One end of the connecting post 745 is inserted into the threaded sleeve 744, and the other end of the connecting post 745 is rotatably connected to the rolling gear 71 that passes through the cleaning disc 8. When the support plate 62 needs to be cleaned, the motor 741 is started, which drives the screw 743 to rotate. This causes the threaded sleeve 744, which is threaded to the screw 743, to move horizontally along the direction of the screw 743. This displacement is then caused by the connecting column 745, which drives the rolling gear 71 to move. The cleaning disc 8 cleans the support plate 62 by rotating along its length. After one cleaning cycle, the motor 741 drives the screw 743 to reverse, and the threaded sleeve moves in the same direction, causing the rolling gear 71 to move back to its initial position. During this process, the cleaning disc 8 performs a second cleaning of the support plate 62 in the opposite direction.

[0028] It should be noted that the drive assembly 74 is set in two symmetrical groups. The drive assembly 74 also includes a connecting rod 746. The rolling gears 71 are rotatably connected through the connecting rod 746 so that the drive assembly 74 synchronously drives all the rolling gears 71 to move.

[0029] Working principle: When it is necessary to clean the scrap metal on the upper end of the support mechanism 6, the drive mechanism is started. The rotation of the screw 743 drives the threaded sleeve 744 to move along the direction of the screw 743, which in turn drives the rolling gear 71 to move. Through its meshing with the rack 73, the rolling gear 71 rotates in the process, driving the cleaning disc 8 to rotate. The cleaning disc 8 drives the claw teeth 9 to perform circumferential motion, rotating and crushing the scrap metal on both sides of the upper part of the support plate 62. After completing one round of cleaning, the motor 741 reverses and drives the threaded sleeve 744 to move in the opposite direction, which in turn drives the rolling gear 71 to move in the opposite direction back to the initial position. During the magnetic process, the cleaning disc 8 performs a second cleaning of the support plate 62.
