Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of aluminum tube cutting, and specifically relates to an aluminum tube servo rotary cutting device. Background Technology
[0002] The manufacturing process of battery casings for new energy vehicles involves first rolling aluminum strip into rectangular aluminum tubes, then welding the seams of the tubes together, and finally cutting the long tubes into shorter ones. These shorter tubes are then further processed to obtain the battery casing. Currently, cutting saws on the market typically cut the aluminum tubes directly, lacking a positioning mechanism to guide them. This results in low cutting accuracy, and since the aluminum tubes are being transported by guide rollers, they cannot be cut during transport. Utility Model Content

A horizontal lead screw is rotatably arranged between the two support seats. A guide rail is horizontally arranged on both the left and right sides of the lead screw on the surface of the worktable. A cutting seat and a clamping seat are movably connected above the two guide rails, respectively. A vertical base is arranged on the cutting seat, and a lifting seat is movably connected to the base. A cutting mechanism is arranged on the lifting seat. A clamping mechanism is arranged on the clamping seat. Two axially spaced lead screw nuts are sleeved on the lead screw, and the two lead screw nuts are respectively connected to the cutting seat and the clamping seat.

The lead screw on the worktable rotates, adjusting the cutting seat and clamping seat to the cutting position via the lead screw nut. The clamping block of the clamping cylinder on the clamping seat presses the aluminum tube downwards. Then, the side positioning block of the side positioning cylinder positions the left and right sides of the aluminum tube. Next, the lifting seat moves downwards, and the cutting saw blade is offset from the side positioning blocks, cutting the aluminum tube. Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are: it can accurately cut aluminum tubes in transport mode, improving cutting efficiency and precision, and has a high degree of automation.

The sliders on the left and right sides are respectively connected to two guide rails. A transmission seat is connected to each of the two lead screw nuts, and the two transmission seats are respectively connected to the cutting seat and the clamping seat. When the lead screw rotates, it drives the cutting seat and the clamping seat to move laterally and adjust their positions through the lead screw nuts. The guide rail sliders guide the cutting seat and the clamping seat.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, the clamping seat is provided with an L-shaped support, and a clamping cylinder is installed on the horizontal part of the support. The piston rod of the clamping cylinder points downward and is provided with a clamping block. The clamping cylinder clamps the aluminum tube from above through the clamping block.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the side positioning mechanism includes a mounting base disposed on the side of the workbench, a bracket disposed on the mounting base, a side positioning cylinder disposed longitudinally on the bracket, and a side positioning block disposed at the end of the piston rod of the side positioning cylinder. The machine base is inverted U-shaped, the piston rod of the side positioning cylinder passes through the machine base and is disposed corresponding to the side of the aluminum tube, the longitudinally disposed aluminum tube is supported on the inner wall of the conveying trough, and the side positioning cylinders on the left and right sides position the aluminum tube from both sides.

Four sets of guide components forming a rectangle are arranged between the base plate and the lifting plate. Each guide component includes a guide cylinder fixed to the base plate, with a guide rod movably connected to the guide cylinder. The upper end of the guide rod is fixed to the lifting plate. A lifting cylinder is vertically installed in the middle of the base plate, and the piston rod of the lifting cylinder is connected to the lifting plate. The lifting plate has two parallel transverse side plates, and several conveying rollers are rotatably arranged between the two side plates. An annular conveying groove is formed around each conveying roller, and the axial length of the conveying groove is less than the axial length of the conveying roller. An aluminum tube with a rectangular cross-section is supported and placed within the conveying groove of each conveying roller. The conveying rollers convey the aluminum tubes, and the height of the conveying rollers is adjusted up and down by the lifting cylinder to accommodate aluminum tubes of different specifications.
[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, each of the left and right ends of the conveying roller is provided with a roller shaft, and the two roller shafts are rotatably connected to the two side plates respectively. Each roller shaft on the left side passes through the side plate and has two parallel sprockets at its end. The sprockets on two adjacent roller shafts are connected by a chain for transmission. The two adjacent chains are staggered axially. Any roller shaft on the right side is connected to the conveying motor for transmission. The conveying motor drives any conveying roller to rotate. Since all conveying rollers are linked by sprockets and chains, they can be driven to rotate simultaneously, thus enabling the aluminum tube to be conveyed backward. Attached Figure Description
