[0017] 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. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present utility model or its application or use. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0018] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. As used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.
[0019] Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement, numerical expressions, and values of the components and steps described in these embodiments do not limit the scope of this invention. It should also be understood that, for ease of description, the dimensions of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn to actual scale. Techniques, methods, and devices known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and devices should be considered part of the specification. In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following drawings denote similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it need not be further discussed in subsequent drawings.
[0020] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the directional terms such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise stated, these directional terms do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. The directional terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself.
[0021] For ease of description, spatial relative terms such as "above," "on top of," "on the upper surface of," "above," etc., are used herein to describe the spatial positional relationship of a device or feature as shown in the figures to other devices or features. It should be understood that spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in use or operation beyond the orientation of the device as described in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures were inverted, a device described as "above" or "on top of" other devices or structures would subsequently be positioned as "below" or "under" other devices or structures. Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below." The device may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used herein will be interpreted accordingly.
[0022] Furthermore, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to define components is merely for the purpose of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a tension adjustment mechanism includes a movable plate 1 and a tension adjustment component 7. One end of the tension adjustment component 7 is mounted on a bearing support 2, and the other end is mounted on the movable plate 1. One end of a transmission mechanism is mounted on the movable plate 1, and the other end is mounted on the bearing support 2. The end of the transmission mechanism mounted on the movable plate 1 moves downward under the drive of the movable plate 1. Specifically, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, taking belt drive as an example, the belt drive mechanism includes a driving pulley 4 and a driven pulley 5 connected by a belt 3. The driving pulley 4 is connected to a servo motor 6 and the servo motor 6 is mounted on the moving plate 1 by bolts. The driven pulley 5 is connected to a cutting guide wheel 9 and the cutting guide wheel 9 is mounted on a bearing support 2.
[0024] In one embodiment, the movable plate 1 is a rectangular plate with oblong holes 11 at each of its four corners. Screws 12 pass through the oblong holes 11 to fix the movable plate 1 to the tool holder base. During adjustment, the screws 12 are loosened to move the movable plate 1 downwards. The screws 12 are stepped screws. When the screws 12 are loosened, the movable plate 1 can only move downwards and cannot rotate freely, thus facilitating adjustment.
[0025] In one embodiment, the tension adjusting member 7 includes an adjusting screw 71. One end of the adjusting screw 71 passes through the upper fixing block 72 and is threadedly connected to the upper fixing block 72. A nut is threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 71 above the upper fixing block 72 to facilitate locking the adjusting screw 71 after adjustment. Together with the upper fixing block 72, the adjusting screw 71 is doubly locked. A spring 74 is sleeved on the other end of the adjusting screw 71. The other end of the spring 74 is sleeved on the limiting post 76 of the lower fixing block 75. The middle part of the adjusting screw 71 is made into an adjusting part 711 that is thicker than the screw body, so as to facilitate the adjustment by rotating the adjusting screw 71. During adjustment, the screw 12 is unscrewed. By rotating the adjusting screw 71, the spring 74 is compressed to generate a downward force. Since the screw 12 is loose at this time, the moving plate 1 is lowered under the action of the spring 74, thereby realizing the adjustment of the tension.
[0026] In one embodiment, a scale 8 is also included. The scale 8 is fixed on the bearing support 2. The tension can be adjusted intuitively and precisely by using the scale 8 in conjunction with the spring 74 with the corresponding stiffness coefficient.
[0027] The above are preferred embodiments of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make changes and modifications to the above embodiments. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. Any obvious improvements, substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
