Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of feeding equipment technology, and more specifically, to a feeding device for laser cutting. Background Technology
[0002] A laser cutting machine focuses a laser beam emitted from a laser source into a high-power-density beam through an optical path system. This beam irradiates the workpiece surface, causing it to reach its melting or boiling point. Simultaneously, high-pressure gas coaxial with the beam blows away the molten or vaporized metal. As the relative position of the beam and the workpiece moves, a kerf is formed in the material, achieving the cutting purpose. Laser cutting uses an invisible beam instead of a traditional mechanical blade, offering advantages such as high precision, fast cutting speed, no limitation on cutting patterns, automatic layout to save material, smooth cuts, and low processing costs. It is gradually improving upon or replacing traditional metal cutting equipment.
[0003] In laser cutting operations, some of the cutting materials are square plates. Traditional feeding devices use suction cups to feed the plates, but the position of the suction cups is fixed, which means that only plates of a single size can be fed. The lack of adjustment capability during use limits the feeding range.
[0004] Therefore, an adjustable feeding device for laser cutting is provided. Utility Model Content

[0035] Reference Figure 1-7 A laser cutting feeding device 100 includes: a crane 101, a connecting block 102, a guide plate 103, a connecting rope 104, a first turntable 105, a first slider 106, a guide column 107, a connecting column 108, a suction cup 109, a first push plate 110, and a limiting member for limiting the first turntable 105. The crane 101 includes a hook 101a. The upper end of the connecting block 102 is provided with a connecting ring 102a, which is fixedly connected to the connecting block, and the hook 101a passes through the connecting ring 102a. The guide plate 103 is located below the connecting block 102. The suction cup 106 is used in the same way as Chinese Patent - An Automatic Feeding Suction Cup Frame for Laser Cutting Machine (CN 206230164U).
[0036] The two ends of the connecting rope 104 are fixedly connected to the connecting block 102 and the guide plate 103, respectively. The first turntable 105 is rotatably connected to the guide plate 103. The first slider 106 is horizontally slidably connected to the guide plate 103. Specifically, the guide plate 103 is provided with a first groove 103a extending radially along the first turntable 105, and the first slider 106 moves along the first groove 103a. The guide post 107 is fixedly connected to the first slider 106. The connecting post 108 is fixedly connected to the first slider 106. The guide post 107 is located at the upper end of the first slider 106, and the connecting post 108 is located at the lower end of the first slider 106. The suction cup 109 is fixedly connected to the connecting post 108. The first push plate 110 is fixedly connected to the first turntable 105.
[0037] Four first sliders 106, four connecting posts 108, and four suction cups 109 are provided, equidistantly distributed along the circumference of the first turntable 105. Pushing the first push plate 110 causes the first turntable 105 to rotate, and the first sliders 106 move along the first slide groove 103a. Therefore, the first turntable 105, through the guide groove 105a and the guide post 107, drives the first sliders 106 to move along the first slide groove 103a, thereby simultaneously adjusting the positions of the four first sliders 106, and consequently, the positions of the four suction cups 109, making adjustment more convenient.
[0038] The first turntable 105 is provided with a guide groove 105a extending radially and circumferentially along the first turntable 105, and the guide post 107 is located in the guide groove 105a. The guide plate 103 is provided with a second slide groove 103b extending circumferentially along the first turntable 105, and part of the first turntable 105 is located in the second slide groove 103b and rotates along the second slide groove 103b.
[0039] The limiting component, used for limiting the first turntable 105, includes: a fixing block 112, a limiting post 113, a second push plate 114, and a first spring 115. The fixing block 112 is fixedly connected to the guide plate 103 and has an L-shaped structure. The limiting post 113 is vertically slidably connected to the fixing block 112. Specifically, the fixing block 112 includes a guide hole 112a, and part of the limiting post 113 is located within the guide hole 112a and moves axially along the guide hole 112a. The second push plate 114 is fixedly connected to the limiting post 113. Both ends of the first spring 115 are fixedly connected to the second push plate 114 and the fixing block 112, respectively. The first turntable 105 includes limiting holes 105b for the insertion of the limiting post 113. Multiple limiting holes 105b are provided, and these holes are equidistantly distributed along the circumference of the first turntable 105. There are four suction cups 109, which are equidistantly distributed along the circumference of the first turntable 105.
[0040] Workflow: Pushing the second push plate 114 causes the limiting post 113 to move, disengaging it from the limiting hole 105b. Then, pushing the first push plate 110 causes it to move, rotating the first turntable 105. The first slider 106 moves along the first groove 103a. Thus, the first turntable 105, through the guide groove 105a and guide post 107, moves the first slider 106 along the first groove 103a, simultaneously adjusting the positions of the four first sliders 106 and consequently the four suction cups 109. This allows the four suction cups 109 to be used for feeding different square plates, facilitating subsequent laser cutting and making adjustments more convenient. After adjustment, releasing the second push plate 114 causes the limiting post 113 to insert into the limiting hole 105b under the action of the first spring 115, thus limiting the first turntable 105 and preventing it from loosening. Then, the hook 101a of the crane 101 hooks the connecting ring 102a, and the suction cup 109 sucks up the board. Then, the crane 101 loads the board onto the laser cutting equipment to complete the loading of the board.
