This utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described below. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a laser cutting machine for motorcycle side frame tubing includes: a frame 100, a fixing mechanism, a placement mechanism, a transfer mechanism, a support mechanism, a first drive mechanism, a second drive mechanism, and a cutting mechanism; the placement mechanism is disposed on one side of the transfer mechanism, the support mechanism is disposed on the other side of the transfer mechanism, the first drive mechanism is disposed on the frame 100, and the first drive mechanism is used to drive the fixing mechanism; the second drive mechanism is disposed on the frame 100, and the second drive mechanism is used to drive the cutting mechanism.

[0025] Specifically, the fixing mechanism includes a housing 210, a fixing socket 220, a fixing motor 230, a first lead screw 240, a second lead screw 250, a first clamp 260, and a second clamp 270. A first driving mechanism drives the housing 210. The fixing socket 220 is disposed on the housing 210. The fixing motor 230 is disposed on the housing 210, and the output shaft of the fixing motor 230 is connected to the first lead screw 240 and the second lead screw 250 respectively via a gear set 280. A first slider 241 is disposed on the first lead screw 240, and a second slider 251 is disposed on the second lead screw 250. The first clamp 260 is disposed on the first slider 241, and the second clamp 270 is disposed on the second slider 251. The first clamp 260 is movably located on one side of the fixing socket 220, and the second clamp 270 is movably located on the other side of the fixing socket 220. The first driving mechanism includes a first driving motor 610 and a driving chain 620. The first driving motor 610 is mounted on the frame 100, and the driving chain 620 is rotatably mounted on the frame 100. The first driving motor 610 drives the driving chain 620, and the housing 210 is mounted on the driving chain 620. The placement mechanism includes a rotating motor 310 and a placement rack 320. The rotating motor 310 is mounted on the frame 100, and the placement rack 320 is rotatably mounted on the frame 100. The rotating motor 310 drives the placement rack 320, and the placement rack 320 is used to place pipe fittings.

[0026] Further, the conveying mechanism includes a conveyor motor 410, a conveyor belt 420, and a slide rail 430. The conveyor motor 410 is mounted on the frame 100, and the conveyor belt 420 is rotatably mounted on the frame 100. The conveyor motor 410 drives the conveyor belt 420. A placement plate 421 is provided on the conveyor belt 420, and a pipe fitting can be placed in the placement plate 421. One end of the conveyor belt 420 is close to the placement frame 320, and the placement plate 421 moves through the placement frame 320. The other end of the conveyor belt 420 is located above the slide rail 430. The support mechanism includes a support frame 510, a plurality of lifting cylinders 520, and a plurality of support seats 530. The support frame 510 is connected to the end of the slide rail 430 away from the conveyor belt 420. The plurality of lifting cylinders 520 are equidistantly arranged, and the air rod of each lifting cylinder 520 is connected to a support seat 530. A baffle 511 is provided on the support frame 510, which is used to block the pipe fittings sliding down the slide rail 430. The second driving mechanism includes a driving cylinder 710 and a driving base 720. The driving cylinder 710 is mounted on the frame 100, and the air rod of the driving cylinder 710 is connected to the driving base 720. The cutting mechanism is mounted on the driving base 720. The cutting mechanism includes a cross slide rail 810 and a laser cutter 820. The cross slide rail 810 is mounted on the driving base 720, and the cross slide rail 810 drives the laser cutter 820.

[0027] In the above embodiment, the entire laser cutting machine 820 for motorcycle side frame pipe fittings also includes a control system, which is a PLC control system. That is, the entire laser cutting machine 820 is controlled by the PLC control system. In other words, the fixed motor 230, the first drive motor 610, the rotating motor 310, the conveying motor 410, several lifting cylinders 520, the drive cylinder 710, the cross slide rail 810, and the laser cutting machine 820 are all electrically connected to the PLC control system. The PLC control system has a touch screen display, and the operator can operate the machine through the touch screen display to control the operation of the entire laser cutting machine 820.

[0028] First, the staff places all the pipes directly on the placement rack 320. Then, by inputting specific parameters on the touch screen, such as the specific cutting length of the pipe, the cutting time of one pipe to be processed when cutting to this length, and the corresponding time for the rotation motor 310 to drive the placement rack 320 to rotate back and forth, that is to say, all of these can be adjusted according to the specific situation. This embodiment will not be described in detail.

[0029] In operation, the control system activates the rotary motor 310, a stepper motor. The output shaft of the rotary motor 310 rotates, causing the placement rack 320 to shift. This tilts the pipes to be processed on the placement rack 320 towards the transfer mechanism. Then, the transmission motor 410 is activated, its output shaft rotating the conveyor belt 420. This causes the placement plate 421 above the conveyor belt 420 to move. Notably, the placement plate 421 consists of several bent plates, equidistantly spaced. This ensures that the pipes pass smoothly over the placement rack 320 while being inserted from bottom to top onto the bent plates. Since each bent plate can only hold one pipe, if another pipe is positioned above the inserted pipe during upward movement, it will roll down from the bent plates and fall back onto the placement rack 320 because there are no bent plates to block its side. Furthermore, the pipe fitting is conveyed along the conveyor belt 420, and when it finally turns from the highest point to the other side, it falls directly onto the slide rail 430, then slides along the slide rail 430 onto the support frame 510, where it is stopped by the baffle 511. Then, several lifting cylinders 520 are activated, each driving a support seat 530 to move upwards, so that all the support seats 530 support the pipe fitting and lift it upwards. Further, the lifting cylinders 520 operate to their maximum stroke, that is, the support seats 530 lift the pipe fitting to its highest position, and then all the lifting cylinders 520 stop operating. At this point, the pipe fitting will be at the same height as the fixed socket 220. Then, the first drive motor 610 is started, which drives the drive chain 620 to rotate, thereby moving the housing 210. This causes the fixed socket 220 to move closer to the pipe fitting. Finally, the pipe fitting will be inserted into the fixed socket 220 as it moves. Then, the fixed motor 230 is started, and the output shaft of the fixed motor 230 rotates, driving the gear set 280 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the first lead screw 240 and the second lead screw 250 to rotate, causing the first clamp 260 and the second clamp 270 to move towards the pipe fitting and finally abut against it. Since the first clamp 260 is located on one side of the pipe fitting and the second clamp 270 is located on the other side, it can provide a good clamping effect.

[0030] Then, the first drive motor 610 continues to drive the drive chain 620 to rotate, causing the housing 210 to continue moving forward. It is worth mentioning that each lifting cylinder 520 has a sensor. When the sensor detects that the housing 210 above is approaching, it sends a signal to the control system. The control system then controls the corresponding lifting cylinder 520 to operate, causing the connected support 530 to move downwards. Therefore, it does not hinder the movement of the housing 210. Furthermore, other support 530s that are not yet close to the housing 210 will not move downwards; only when the housing 210 is close will the lifting cylinder 520 drive the support 530 to move downwards.

[0031] It's worth noting that the drive base 720 also has a sensor. When it senses that the pipe has moved downwards, the drive cylinder 710 drives the drive base 720 downwards. Then, the position of the laser cutter 820 is adjusted via the cross slide rail 810 so that it is positioned above the location where the pipe needs to be cut. The laser cutter 820 is then started, and the drive cylinder 710 continues to drive the drive base 720 downwards, thus effectively cutting the pipe. After cutting one location, the drive cylinder 710 drives the entire laser cutter 820 upwards, returning it to its initial position. Then, the first drive motor 610 continues to drive the pipe below the laser cutter 820, and cutting continues. The entire process is simple and convenient, allowing for continuous pipe cutting without requiring manual insertion of the pipe below the laser cutter 820, saving time and effort while maintaining high overall cutting accuracy.

[0032] More notably, a protective cover 900 is provided at the location of the frame 100 where the second drive mechanism and the cutting mechanism are located. This means that the protective cover 900 is placed on the frame 100, and the second drive mechanism and the cutting mechanism are placed inside the protective cover 900. Furthermore, an opening is provided on one side of the protective cover 900, allowing a direct view of the cutting process of the pipe fittings passing through the protective cover 900. A receiving box is located below the protective cover 900 to collect the cut pipe fittings. After collection, the receiving box can be simply pulled out from inside the protective cover 900.

[0033] In summary, the above embodiments are not limiting embodiments of this utility model. Any modifications or equivalent variations made by those skilled in the art based on the substantive content of this utility model are within the technical scope of this utility model.
