[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides a dual-purpose mobile mechanism to assist a laser cleaning head in operating within confined spaces. It includes a mobile base 1 and a cleaning head connecting fixture 2. The cleaning head connecting fixture 2 is detachably and rotatably connected to the mobile base 1, allowing the cleaning head connecting fixture 2 to rotate relative to the mobile base 1 in the X and Y planes. The cleaning head connecting fixture 2 is connected to a laser cleaning head 3. The mobile structure can achieve two uses: First, when the cleaning head connecting fixture 2 is used in combination with the mobile base 1, the operator holds the cleaning head connecting fixture 2 to drive the laser cleaning head 3 to clean a large area of ​​the workpiece 4 with good accessibility (i.e., the inner and outer walls of a cylinder or elliptical cylinder, referred to as large surface B). Second, when the cleaning head connecting fixture 2 is used alone, the operator holds the cleaning head connecting fixture 2 to drive the laser cleaning head 3 to clean a small area of ​​the workpiece 4 with poor accessibility (i.e., the top annular surface of a cylinder or elliptical cylinder, referred to as small surface A). The following section provides a detailed explanation of the two core components of the moving mechanism: the cleaning head connecting fixture 2 and the moving base 1.

[0022] 1. Cleaning head connection fixture 2

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the cleaning head connecting fixture 2 includes a handle 201, a telescopic connecting rod 202, and a connecting plate 203. The handle 201 and the connecting plate 203 are respectively installed at both ends of the telescopic connecting rod 202. The handle 201 is detachably and rotatably connected to the upper end of the movable base 1. The connecting plate 203 is detachably connected to the laser cleaning head 3. The handle 201 allows the operator to hold the cleaning head connecting fixture 2 to change the position and angle of the laser cleaning head 3 for cleaning the corresponding area. The telescopic connecting rod 202 can be adjusted in length according to actual conditions to adapt to different cleaning areas. The connecting plate 203 is used to mount the laser cleaning head 3 onto the cleaning head connecting fixture 2.

[0024] Specifically: the connecting plate 203 is provided with at least one set of mounting holes along its width direction, and each set of mounting holes includes at least two first mounting holes spaced apart along the length direction of the connecting plate 203; the laser cleaning head 3 is provided with second mounting holes corresponding to each of the first mounting holes, and fasteners pass through the first mounting holes and the second mounting holes in sequence to fix the connecting plate 203 and the laser cleaning head 3.

[0025] In this embodiment, the number of mounting hole groups and mounting holes can be selected according to actual conditions in order to better meet actual needs.

[0026] II. Mobile Base 1

[0027] like Figure 3As shown, the movable base 1 includes a triangular movable support 101, a telescopic extension rod 103, and a rotating connecting fixture 104. The upper end of the triangular movable support 101 is connected to the lower end of the telescopic extension rod 103, and the upper end of the telescopic extension rod 103 is connected to the lower end of the rotating connecting fixture 104. The upper end of the rotating connecting fixture 104 is detachably connected to the lower side of the handle 201. The triangular movable support 101 supports the entire movable mechanism and can move the cleaning head connecting fixture 2, thereby changing the distance between the laser cleaning head 3 and the workpiece 4 to be cleaned. The telescopic extension rod 103 can change the height of the cleaning head connecting fixture 2, thereby adjusting the height difference between the laser cleaning head 3 and the workpiece 4 to be cleaned, facilitating cleaning by the laser cleaning head 3. The length of the telescopic extension rod 103 can be adjusted according to actual conditions to adapt to different cleaning needs. The rotating connection fixture 104 enables the angle between the movable base 1 and the cleaning head connection fixture 2 to change. The operator rotates the handle 201 relative to the movable base 1 in the X plane and / or Y plane, thereby changing the angle and distance between the laser cleaning head 3 and the workpiece 4 to be cleaned, achieving a better cleaning effect.

[0028] The movable base 1 also includes a visual feedback component, which includes a visual feedback bracket 102 and a reflector mounted on the visual feedback bracket 102. The visual feedback bracket 102 is horizontally fixed to the telescopic extension rod 103. By mounting the reflector on the telescopic extension rod 103 using the visual feedback bracket 102, the reflector can reflect the angle and positional relationship between the laser cleaning head 3 and the workpiece 4 to be cleaned. This allows operators to adjust the angle and positional relationship between the laser cleaning head 3 and the workpiece 4 according to the actual situation by operating the movable base 1 and the cleaning head connecting fixture 2, thereby achieving a better cleaning effect.

[0029] like Figure 4As shown, the rotary connection fixture 104 includes an X-plane rotary connection base 1044, a Y-plane rotary connector 1042, an XY-plane rotary connector 1043, and a connecting pin 1041. The lower end of the X-plane rotary connection base 1044 is connected to the telescopic extension rod 103, and the upper end of the X-plane rotary connection base 1044 is provided with a connecting hole. The Y-plane rotary connector 1042 is U-shaped, and its bottom is provided with a downwardly protruding connecting shaft, which extends into the connecting hole, allowing the Y-plane rotary connector 1042 to be rotatably connected to the X-plane rotary connection base 1044. The Y-plane rotary connector 1042 has two extended arms with outer connecting holes penetrating its front and rear sides, and the XY-plane rotary connector 1043 has an inner connecting hole penetrating its front and rear sides. The XY-plane rotary connector 1043 extends between the two extended arms of the Y-plane rotary connector 1042. The connecting pin 1041 passes through the outer connecting hole and the inner connecting hole in sequence, so that the XY-plane rotary connector 1043 and the Y-plane rotary connector 1042 are rotatably connected. The upper end of the Y-plane rotary connector 1042 is connected to the handle 201.

[0030] Combined with appendix Figure 4 As can be seen, the X-plane rotary connecting base 1044 is cylindrical, the XY-plane rotary connector 1043 is symmetrically U-shaped, the upper part of the Y-plane rotary connector 1042 is cylindrical, and the lower part is hemispherical; the connecting pin 1041 is cylindrical. This arrangement ensures the coaxiality of the three components, thereby guaranteeing the rotational accuracy of the relevant parts and improving the precision of laser cleaning. The lower part of the Y-plane rotary connector 1042 is spherical, with a smoother surface, allowing it to be closer to the bottom of the XY-plane rotary connector 1043, preventing objects from getting stuck between them and affecting the rotational accuracy of the relevant parts.

[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the lower end of the X-plane rotary connecting base 1044 is provided with a lower connecting hole, and the upper end of the telescopic extension rod 103 is provided with a lower connecting head. The lower connecting head is inserted into the lower connecting hole to connect the telescopic extension rod 103 to the X-plane rotary connecting base 1044. The upper end of the XY-plane rotary connector 1043 is provided with an upper connecting head, and the lower side of the handle 201 is provided with an upper connecting hole. The upper connecting head is inserted into the upper connecting hole to connect the XY-plane rotary connector 1043 to the handle 201.

[0032] In this embodiment, the lower end of the X-plane rotary connecting base 1044 in the rotary connecting fixture 104 is fixedly connected to the telescopic extension rod 103, and the upper end is rotatably connected to the XY-plane rotary connector 1043. The rotatable connection between the X-plane rotary connecting base 1044 and the XY-plane rotary connector 1043 enables relative rotation between the two in the horizontal direction, thereby enabling the cleaning head connecting fixture 2 to rotate relative to the movable base 1 in the X-plane. The middle part of the XY-plane rotary connector 1043 is rotatably connected to the Y-plane rotary connector 1042, and the upper end is connected to the handle 201. The rotatable connection between the XY-plane rotary connector 1043 and the Y-plane rotary connector 1042 enables relative rotation between the two in the vertical direction, thereby enabling the cleaning head connecting fixture 2 to rotate relative to the movable base 1 in the Y-plane.

[0033] By adopting the above-disclosed technical solution of this utility model, the following beneficial effects are obtained:

[0034] This invention provides a dual-purpose moving mechanism to assist laser cleaning heads in operating within confined spaces. This mechanism enables flexible movement and positioning of the laser cleaning head within narrow spaces, while also ensuring comprehensive coverage of the cleaning area. The dual-purpose moving mechanism helps operators quickly remove contaminants from hard-to-reach confined spaces, significantly improving cleaning efficiency. The design of this mechanism allows laser cleaning technology to be applied to cleaning operations in more complex and confined spaces, such as cleaning the gaps between precision components like engine parts in large manufacturing industries like shipbuilding.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
