Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cutting technology, and in particular to an adjustable-width groove cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, people often use handheld cutting machines to cut materials. During the cutting process, the internal motor drives the cutting blade to rotate, which can cut materials such as wood or tiles. The cut tiles can be used for floor paving, while the cut wood can be used for furniture production or manufacturing.

[0003] In the existing technology, handheld cutting machines usually only include one cutting blade, so a single cutting action can only cut a slit in the material, which has little impact on the cutting of materials.

[0004] However, when grooving is required in materials, existing handheld cutting machines require two cutting operations to complete the grooving task. This method is not only inefficient but also results in insufficient grooving precision due to directional errors in the two cuts. Especially for large-volume grooving operations, the inefficiency and insufficient precision of existing handheld cutting machines become increasingly severe as working hours increase. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems of low efficiency and insufficient grooving accuracy of existing cutting machines in grooving operations, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an adjustable width grooving cutting device to at least partially solve the above problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0007] An adjustable-width groove cutting device includes a protective cover. Motors are fixedly connected to the outer walls of two opposite sides of the protective cover. Through holes are provided on both opposite sides of the protective cover for the motor shaft to pass through. The motor shaft is stepped and includes a shaft head and a shoulder located inside the protective cover. An adjusting bushing, a cutting blade, and a locking nut are sequentially installed on the shaft head in a direction away from the shoulder. The protective cover also has notches for exposing the two cutting blades.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, a keyway is provided on the shaft head, and the cutting blade is fixedly connected to the motor shaft by the key, the length of the key being adapted to the width of the cutting blade.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the motor shafts of the two motors are coaxial.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the protective cover is cylindrical, and the axis of the protective cover is collinear with the axis of the motor shaft.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the notch is formed on the circumferential sidewall of the protective cover, the notch is rectangular, and the notch extends to both end faces of the protective cover.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the outer wall of the shaft head is covered with external threads that are compatible with the locking nut.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the adjusting bushing includes a plurality of positioning rings.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the positioning ring has several width specifications, each width specification including one or more of the positioning rings.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model using the above technical solution are as follows: By installing two opposing motors on a protective cover, and sequentially installing an adjusting bushing, a cutting blade, and a locking nut on the motor shaft bushing, this utility model can not only simultaneously cut two parallel slits in the material to complete a high-precision grooving operation, but also control the distance between the two cutting blades by changing the adjusting bushings of different lengths, thereby adjusting the grooving width. Furthermore, the cutting device provided by this utility model also has the advantages of simple structure and convenient assembly and disassembly. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Example 1

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides an adjustable width groove cutting device, including a protective cover 1, a motor 2 and a cutting blade 3.

[0026] The protective cover 1 is configured as a metal cylindrical structure, with motors 2 arranged at both ends of the protective cover 1 along its axial direction. The left and right sidewalls of the protective cover 1 are detachably and fixedly connected to the housing of the motors 2 by screws. Furthermore, the axis of the protective cover 1 is aligned with the axes of the two motors 2. Simultaneously, through holes are provided on the left and right sidewalls of the protective cover 1 to allow the motor shafts 4 of the two motors 2 to pass through these holes into the interior of the protective cover 1.

[0027] Motor 2 is powered by a cable. A switch button (not shown in the figure) is usually fixedly installed on the casing of motor 2. When in use, the power on and off state of motor 2 can be controlled by operating the switch button.

[0028] In this embodiment, the motor shafts 4 of the two motors 2 are both stepped, including a shaft head and a shaft shoulder, and both the shaft head and the shaft shoulder are located inside the protective cover 1. For each motor shaft 4, an adjusting bushing 5, a cutting disc 3, and a locking nut 6 are sequentially installed on its shaft head in the direction away from the shaft shoulder.

[0029] The shaft head has a keyway 7 along its axial direction, starting at the end of the shaft head and ending at the shaft shoulder. The cutting blade 3 is fixedly connected to the shaft head by a key 8, the length of which is approximately the same as the width of the cutting blade 3. An adjusting sleeve 5 is fitted onto the shaft head, with a clearance fit between the inner wall of the adjusting sleeve 5 and the outer wall of the shaft head. The two ends of the adjusting sleeve 5 abut against the shaft shoulder and the cutting blade 3, respectively. The outer wall of the shaft head is covered with external threads that match the locking nut 6, allowing the cutting blade 3 to be tightened by screwing on the locking nut 6.

[0030] The protective cover 1 also has a notch for exposing two cutting blades 3. The notch is specifically opened on the circumferential side wall of the protective cover 1 and is configured to be rectangular. The notch extends to the two end faces of the protective cover 1.

[0031] In use, two motors 2 drive two cutting blades 3 to rotate respectively, and by replacing the adjusting bushings 5 ​​with different lengths, the distance between the two cutting blades 3 can be changed, thereby cutting grooves of different widths.

[0032] Typically, the gap between the ends of the two motor shafts 4 is wider than the width (axial length) of the locking nut 6. This allows the locking nut 6 to be removed when adjusting the width of the two cutting blades 3. Of course, the thinner cutting blades 3 can also be removed. Then, the screws connecting the protective cover 1 and the motor 2 can be removed, and the motor shaft 4 can be removed from the protective cover 1. The adjusting bushing 5 can then be replaced, and the motor 2 and the protective cover 1 can be re-fixed. Finally, the cutting blades 3 and the locking nut 6 can be installed.

[0033] Example 2

[0034] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the adjusting bushing 5 includes several positioning rings 9, each positioning ring 9 having the same inner and outer diameter. Typically, the width (axial length) of each positioning ring 9 is the same. Thus, during use, the axial length of the adjusting bushing 5 can be changed by increasing or decreasing the number of positioning rings 9, thereby changing the distance between the two cutting blades 3 and cutting grooves of different widths.

[0035] Of course, each positioning ring 9 can also be configured with a different width. For example, there are multiple width specifications for the positioning rings, and each width specification has one or more positioning rings 9. When in use, by selecting the appropriate width specification and the corresponding number of positioning rings 9, the required length of the adjusting bushing 5 can be combined.

[0036] With this setup, when adjusting the distance between the two cutting blades 3, it is not necessary to remove the screws between the motor 2 and the protective cover 1 to remove and replace the shorter positioning ring from the gap between the two motor shafts 4.

[0037] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and alterations to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model will still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
