Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of graphite gasket technology, specifically to a laser-assisted positioning and cutting device for graphite gaskets. Background Technology

[0002] Graphite gaskets are soft and have a lubricated surface. Traditional mechanical clamping and bolt tightening can easily damage the surface, leading to cutting deviation, rough edges, and affecting sealing accuracy. Therefore, a flexible and non-slip fixing solution that is adapted to its characteristics is required.

[0003] The graphite gasket is directly clamped and fixed using a clamp. For example, some graphite gasket processing equipment uses a motor to drive the clamping turntable to rotate. The rollers on the clamping plate cooperate with the arc grooves on the turntable to make the arc-shaped structure of the clamping connector fit tightly against the graphite sheet, thereby achieving fixation.

[0004] However, the aforementioned traditional device clamps the graphite gasket directly with clamps. During clamping, the graphite gasket is clamped and fixed towards the center by pushing the clamping plates on both sides. In this process, pressure is applied to the center of the graphite gasket, causing damage to the graphite gasket. Utility Model Content

[0027] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model has the following three specific embodiments.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] A laser-assisted positioning and cutting device for graphite pads includes a base 11, telescopic rods 12 at the four corners of the top surface of the base 11, an operating table 13 fixedly connected to the top of the telescopic rods 12, a pad 14 fixedly connected to the center of the top surface of the operating table 13, pressure rods 15 on the top of the left and right sides of the pad 14, a pressing component at the bottom of the pressure rods 15, and a moving component at the bottom of the base 11. The device also includes:

[0030] Drive mechanism 2, which is used to fix the graphite gasket;

[0031] Adjustment mechanism 3 is used to adjust the height of the operating table 13.

[0032] The pressing assembly includes a gasket 17, a pressure plate 16 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the pressure rod 15, the gasket 17 being fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the pressure plate 16, and the pressure plate 16 being made of fluororubber.

[0033] The moving components include casters 18, which are located at the four corners of the bottom surface of the base 11.

[0034] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, the device is moved to a suitable position using the casters 18. The height of the operating table 13 is adjusted with the assistance of the adjusting mechanism 3 and the telescopic rod 12. The uncut graphite pad is placed on top of the pad 14. The driving mechanism 2 drives the pressure rod 15 to press down, which in turn drives the pressure plate 16 to press down and fix the graphite pad. The pad 14 and the gasket 17 prevent the surface of the graphite pad from being damaged by friction, thus playing an auxiliary role in cutting.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] The difference from Embodiment 1 is that this embodiment discloses a drive mechanism:

[0037] The drive mechanism 2 includes an arc-shaped connecting rod 24. A bracket 21 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the operating table 13. A connecting plate 22 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the middle partition of the bracket 21. A pressure rod 15 is slidably connected to the middle part of the bracket 21 and the connecting plate 22. A rotating frame 1 23 is hinged to the side of the connecting plate 22. The arc-shaped connecting rod 24 is rotatably connected to the middle part of the sliding rod provided in the middle of the rotating frame 1 23. A fixing plate 25 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the middle part of the pressure rod 15. The arc-shaped connecting rod 24 is hinged to the middle part of the fixing plate 25. A connecting rod 1 26 is hinged to the front and rear sides of the upper left part of the rotating frame 1 23. A rotating frame 27 is hinged to the top of the two connecting rods 1 26. The rotating frame 27 is rotatably connected to the middle part of the top plate of the bracket 21. A downward pressure handle 28 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating frame 27.

[0038] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, manually press down and rotate the handle 28 around the top of the bracket 21, which drives the rotating frame 27 to rotate, drives the connecting rod 26 to move to the lower left, drives the rotating frame 23 to rotate to the bottom, and at the same time, the arc-shaped connecting rod 24 drives the fixing plate 25 together with the pressure rod 15 to press down, thereby driving the pressure rod 15 to press down and fix the graphite pad.

[0039] Example 3

[0040] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 2 is that this embodiment discloses an adjustment mechanism:

[0041] The adjustment mechanism 3 includes a bidirectional screw 32. An adjustment plate 31 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base 11. The bidirectional screw 32 is rotatably connected to the inner top of the adjustment plate 31. A slider 33 is threadedly connected to the outer left side of the bidirectional screw 32. A connecting rod 34 is hinged to the front and rear sides of the slider 33. A hinge plate 35 is fixedly connected to the left bottom surface of the operating table 13. The connecting rod 34 is hinged to the hinge plate 35. The left end of the bidirectional screw 32 passes through the adjustment plate 31 and is fixedly connected to a turntable 36. A handle 37 is fixedly connected to the eccentric end of the turntable 36 away from the adjustment plate 31.

[0042] Preferably, the slider 33, the connecting rod 34, and the hinge plate 35 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the bidirectional screw 32.

[0043] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, manually turning the handle 37 causes the turntable 36 to rotate, which in turn causes the bidirectional screw 32 to rotate. Utilizing the opposing threads on the left and right sides of the bidirectional screw 32, the sliders 33 on the left and right sides move synchronously left and right on the outer wall of the bidirectional screw 32, while simultaneously moving the connecting rod 34, thereby adjusting the height of the operating table 13.

[0044] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0045] Using the casters 18, move the device to a suitable position. Manually turn the handle 37 to rotate the turntable 36, which in turn rotates the bidirectional screw 32. Utilizing the opposing threads on the left and right sides of the bidirectional screw 32, the sliders 33 on the left and right sides move synchronously left and right on the outer wall of the bidirectional screw 32. Simultaneously, the connecting rod 24 moves, thereby adjusting the height of the operating table 13. Place the uncut graphite pad on top of the pad 14. Manually press down around the top of the bracket 21 and rotate the pressing handle 28 to rotate the rotating frame 27, which in turn moves the connecting rod 26 to the lower left and rotates the rotating frame 23 to the bottom. At the same time, the arc-shaped connecting rod 24 drives the fixing plate 25 and the pressure rod 15 to press down, thereby driving the pressure rod 15 to press down and fix the graphite pad. The pad 14 and the gasket 17 prevent friction damage to the surface of the graphite pad and serve as an auxiliary cutting tool.

[0046] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
