[0002] During the rapid development of my country's manufacturing industry, the demand for metal sheets has gradually increased.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] 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.

[0026] Example

[0027] like Figure 1-6 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic laser rust removal device for metal plates, comprising a vertical moving assembly 1, a horizontal moving assembly 2, and a front-back moving assembly 3. The horizontal moving assembly 2 is mounted on the vertical moving assembly 1, and the front-back moving assembly 3 is mounted on the horizontal moving assembly 2. A laser cleaning device 4 and a color sensor 5 are mounted on the front-back moving assembly 3. A PLC controller 6 is mounted on the vertical moving assembly 1. The PLC controller 6 is connected to the vertical moving assembly 1, the horizontal moving assembly 2, the front-back moving assembly 3, and the laser cleaning device 4 via data cables. The PLC controller 6 is also connected to a host computer via a data cable. The color sensor 5 is also connected to the host computer via a data cable. In use, the vertical moving assembly 1 is... Fixed at the desired location, the color sensor 5 collects the color distribution on the surface of the metal sheet to be processed. When the surface color difference exceeds a set threshold, it is considered that rust has occurred at this location, and the information is sent to the host computer. The host computer sends information to the PLC controller 6, which controls the up-down moving component 1, the left-right moving component 2, and the forward-backward moving component 3 to move the laser cleaning device 4 to the rusted area of ​​the metal sheet. The laser beam emitted by the laser cleaning device 4 can clean and remove rust from the rusted area. Compared with the current method of removing rust from metal sheets by hand-held lasers, this method is more efficient, can realize automated operation, improve production efficiency, and will not cause harm to workers.

[0028] like Figures 1-6As shown, in this embodiment, the vertical moving component 1 includes a first frame 101, a first base 102 slidably mounted on the upper limit of the first frame 101, a first servo motor 103 fixed on the surface of the first base 102, a first gear 104 fixed on the output shaft of the first servo motor 103, a first rack 105 fixed inside the first frame 101, and the first gear 104 meshing with the first rack 105. The horizontal moving component 2 is mounted on the first base 102, and a PLC controller 6 is fixed on the top of the first frame 101. The PLC controller 6 is connected to the first servo motor 103 via a data cable. The horizontal moving component 2 includes a second frame 201 fixed to the surface of the first base 102, a second base 202 slidably mounted on the upper limit of the second frame 201, a second servo motor 203 fixed on the surface of the second base 202, a second gear 204 fixed on the output shaft of the second servo motor 203, and the second frame 201... A second rack 205 is fixed inside, and a second gear 204 meshes with the second rack 205. The front-to-back moving assembly 3 is mounted on the second base 202. The PLC controller 6 is connected to the second servo motor 203 via a data cable. The front-to-back moving assembly 3 includes a third base 301 fixed to the surface of the second base 202. A third frame 302 is slidably mounted on the upper limit of the third base 301. A third servo motor 303 is fixed to the surface of the third base 301. A third gear 304 is fixed to the output shaft of the third servo motor 303. A third rack 305 is fixed to the bottom of the third frame 302. The third gear 304 meshes with the third rack 305. A stop block 306 is fixed to one end of the third frame 302. A mounting plate 307 is fixed to the other end of the third frame 302. A laser cleaning device 4 and a color sensor 5 are fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 307. The PLC controller 6 is connected to the third servo motor 303 via a data cable.

[0029] When it is necessary to control the movement of the color sensor 5 and the laser cleaning device 4, the PLC controller 6 can control the operation of the first servo motor 103, the second servo motor 203, and the third servo motor 303. The first servo motor 103 can drive the first gear 104 to rotate. Because the first rack 105 is fixed inside the first frame 101, the rotation of the first gear 104 can realize the vertical movement of the first base 102. The first base 102 can drive the second frame 201 to move vertically. The second servo motor 203 can drive the second gear 204 to rotate. Because the second rack 205 is fixed... Inside the second frame 201, the rotation of the second gear 204 enables the second base 202 to move left and right in the horizontal direction. The second base 202 can drive the third base 301 to move left and right in the horizontal direction. The third servo motor 303 can drive the third gear 304 to rotate. The third gear 304 can drive the third rack 305 to move. The third rack 305 is fixed to the third frame 302, so the third frame 302 can move back and forth in the horizontal direction. Thus, the color sensor 5 and the laser cleaning device 4 can move in the vertical direction, as well as move left and right and back and forth in the horizontal direction.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, two first I-shaped limiting strips 106 are symmetrically fixed inside the first frame 101, and two first limiting blocks 107 adapted to the first I-shaped limiting strips 106 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the surface of the first base 102. This is to ensure that the first base 102 can move stably on the first frame 101 and will not fall off. A first blocking member 108 is fixed at the bottom inside the first frame 101 to limit the height of the first base 102 as it descends, thereby preventing the left and right moving component 2 and the front and back moving component 3 from colliding with the surface of the first frame 101 at the installation position.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, two second I-shaped limiting strips 206 are symmetrically fixed inside the second frame 201, and two second limiting blocks 207 adapted to the second I-shaped limiting strips 206 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the surface of the second base 202. This is to ensure that the second base 202 can move stably on the second frame 201 and will not detach from the second frame 201. A second blocking member 208 is fixed at the left end inside the second frame 201 to limit the distance the second base 202 moves to the left, thereby preventing the front and rear moving component 3 from colliding with the up and down moving component 1.

[0032] like Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, the top and side walls of the third frame 302 are fixed with third I-shaped limiting strips 308, and the top inner wall and side inner walls of the third base 301 are symmetrically fixed with two third limiting blocks 309 adapted to the third I-shaped limiting strips 308, so that the third frame 302 can move stably within the third base 301 and will not detach from the third base 301.

[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
