Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of metal processing equipment, specifically a cutting device for processing metal sheets. Background Technology
[0002] Electromechanical equipment refers to equipment that combines mechanical and electrical technologies. It is typically used in industrial production, building facilities, and automation systems. This type of equipment integrates mechanical parts and electrical components to achieve specific functions or operations. Examples include electric motors, generators, transformers, switchboards, servers, various control systems (such as PLC programmable logic controllers), sensors, and drives.
[0003] In the field of metal sheet processing, a laser cutting device for metal sheets, with publication number CN114833467B and publication date January 31, 2023, achieves automatic lifting and feeding of the metal sheet to be cut by setting a top-feeding structure at the bottom of the frame, thus saving manpower. However, although the top-feeding structure in this design can be folded for storage, in practical applications, the coordination between its feeding structure and the cutting process has certain limitations, which can easily lead to the sheet shifting during the cutting process, affecting the cutting accuracy. In addition, the device has limited adaptability to sheets of different thicknesses, and there is room for improvement in meeting the cutting needs of multi-specification sheets. Utility Model Content

The technical implementation is as follows: A cutting device for processing metal sheets includes a support frame, a clamping assembly, a guiding mechanism, a cutting unit, and an anti-deviation device. The clamping assembly is located at the bottom of the support frame and is fixed by screws to ensure the stability of the sheet metal during cutting. A guiding mechanism is symmetrically arranged at the top of the support frame to guide the movement trajectory of the cutting unit. The cutting unit is mounted on the guiding mechanism and can move along the guiding mechanism to complete the cutting operation of the sheet metal.
[0005] The clamping assembly includes a support plate, a movable clamping plate, and an elastic connector. A set of support plates is provided on both sides of the support frame, and a movable clamping plate is provided on the support plate. The movable clamping plate is connected to the support plate by a screw. The lower part of the movable clamping plate is parallel to the processing surface.

A cutting unit is connected to the slide rail. A guide frame is provided on the cutting unit, and a fixing block is slidably connected to the guide frame. The fixing block is connected to the transmission belt. When the drive motor drives the transmission belt to rotate, the fixing block moves vertically up and down along the guide frame. At the same time, the cutting unit is driven to cut through the slide rail.

[0009] Optionally, it also includes an auxiliary feeding component, which includes rollers and a drive belt. Multiple sets of rollers are provided at the bottom of the support frame. The rollers are connected to an external power source through the drive belt. The drive belt drives the rollers to rotate, thereby realizing automatic feeding of the sheet material.

Example
[0029] A guide mechanism 3 is provided based on embodiment 1.
[0030] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the guide mechanism 3 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the guiding mechanism 3 includes a slide rail 301, a tensioning wheel 302, a guide frame 303, and a fixing block 304.

[0033] An anti-deviation device is provided based on Embodiment 1.
[0034] In this embodiment, the anti-deviation device includes a pressure roller 5 and a buffer spring 501. The pressure roller 5 is disposed in the middle of the support frame 1 and is connected to the support frame 1 through the buffer spring 501. The buffer spring 501 provides downward pressure to make the pressure roller 5 fit tightly against the surface of the board and prevent the board from deviating during the cutting process.
[0035] In addition, an auxiliary feeding assembly 6 is provided on one side of the support frame, including a roller 602 and a drive belt 601.

[0037] In actual operation, the operator first places the metal sheet to be cut on the support frame 1, and feeds the sheet into the clamping assembly 2 using the auxiliary feeding component. The clamping assembly 2 is adjusted to ensure the stability of the sheet. The movable clamping plate 202 clamps the sheet under the action of the screw 203, while the pressure roller 5 is pressed tightly against the surface of the sheet by the pressure provided by the buffer spring 501 to prevent displacement. After the cutting unit 4 is started, the drive motor drives the laser head 401 to move along the slide rail 301 through the transmission belt, and the laser head 401 performs the cutting operation on the sheet. The waste generated during the cutting process falls into the waste collection tank, and the coolant and cleaning fluid are discharged through the drain hole. After the cutting is completed, the operator removes the cut sheet and cleans the waste collection tank for the next use.
[0038] As can be seen from the above steps, this invention achieves adaptive adjustment for plates of different thicknesses through the clamping component 2; the cooperation between the screw 203 and the pressure roller 5 significantly improves the stability of the plate during the cutting process; the design of the tension wheel 302 in the guide mechanism 3 ensures the reliability of the transmission system, thereby improving cutting accuracy; in addition, the design of the waste collection trough and drainage hole not only facilitates maintenance but also enhances the environmental performance of the equipment, while the protective cover further ensures operational safety.
