[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment of an aluminum profile cutting equipment includes a clamping mechanism comprising a base plate 1, a gantry frame 2 mounted on the base plate 1, and a clamping mechanism mounted on the gantry frame 2. The clamping mechanism includes a hydraulic telescopic rod 6 fixed inside the gantry frame 2, and a clamping fixture 5 for clamping the aluminum profile is bolted to the output end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 6. Specifically, there are two hydraulic telescopic rods 6 and two clamping fixtures 5, which are arranged opposite each other. The clamping fixtures 5 are connected to the output end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 6 via screws for subsequent disassembly and maintenance. A hydraulic telescopic rod 4 is fixed to the upper surface of the gantry frame 2, and the output end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 4 penetrates the interior of the gantry frame 2. A control device is fixed to the outer surface of the gantry frame 2.
[0028] In this embodiment, a cutting mechanism 3 is provided on the gantry frame 2 to cooperate with the clamping mechanism. The cutting mechanism 3 includes a housing 31, inside which a cutting blade 32 is installed. An infusion pump 33 and a nozzle 35 are fixed on the outer surface of the housing 31. Several nozzles 36 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the nozzle 35. Both the output and input ends of the infusion pump 33 are fixed with connecting pipes 34, and one end of the connecting pipe 34 away from the infusion pump 33 is fixedly connected to the nozzle 35. The output end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 4 is fixed to the upper surface of the housing 31 through a shock-absorbing pad, and a guide rod penetrating the interior of the gantry frame 2 is fixed to the upper surface of the housing 31. The output torque of the hydraulic telescopic rod 4 is greater than the vibration of the cutting mechanism 3 during use, which can ensure that the hydraulic telescopic rod 4 can stably support and drive the cutting mechanism 3 during the cutting process, avoiding shaking or positional displacement of the cutting mechanism 3 due to vibration, and further ensuring the stability and quality of cutting. Specifically, a drive motor for driving the cutting blade 32 is fixed on one side of the housing 31. The infusion pump 33 includes a pump housing 331 fixed to the outer surface of the housing 31. Inside the pump housing 331 are two meshing transmission gears 332. Each of the two transmission gears 332 has a rotating shaft 333 fixed inside, rotatably connected to the inside of the pump housing 331. A synchronizing element is provided between one of the rotating shafts 333 and the cutting blade 32. The infusion pump 33 uses two meshing transmission gears 332 to deliver coolant. Gear transmission has advantages such as accurate transmission ratio, reliable operation, and high efficiency. The two transmission gears 332 mesh and rotate within the pump chamber 334, stably delivering coolant from the input end to the output end. The coolant is then sprayed out from the nozzle 36 through the connecting pipe 34 and the spray pipe 35, providing continuous and stable cooling and lubrication to the cutting part.
[0029] It should be noted that the connecting pipe 34, which connects to the pump housing 331, is connected to the cooling box (not shown in the figure). The connecting pipe 34 is a flexible hose. The pump housing 331 has a pump chamber 334 adapted to the two transmission gears 332. Both rotating shafts 333 have meshing linkage gears fixed at their ends away from the synchronizing element. The synchronizing element includes two synchronizing shafts 37 and two synchronizing pulleys 38. The two synchronizing shafts 37 are respectively connected and fixed to the inside of the cutting blade 32 and one of the rotating shafts 333. The two synchronizing pulleys 38 are respectively fixed to the same end of the two synchronizing shafts 37, and a synchronous belt 39 connects the two synchronizing pulleys 38. The meshing linkage gears fixed at the ends of the two rotating shafts 333 away from the synchronizing element ensure that the two transmission gears 332 always rotate synchronously, further improving the stability and reliability of the infusion pump 33, ensuring that the coolant delivery rate matches the rotation speed of the cutting blade 32, and meeting the cooling requirements during the cutting process. The two synchronizing pulleys 38 are of different sizes.
[0030] In this embodiment, a material feeding groove 7 is provided inside the base plate 1, and a material blocking structure 8 is provided on the base plate 1 to block the material feeding groove 7. A transmission structure 9 is provided between the clamp 5 and the material blocking structure 8. Specifically, the material feeding groove 7 is inclined. Based on the principle of gravity, when the material generated from cutting the aluminum profile falls into the material feeding groove 7, it will automatically slide down the inclined surface under its own gravity without the need for additional power to push it. The material blocking structure 8 includes a gantry frame 81 fixed to the upper surface of the base plate 1 and a blocking plate 82 slidably disposed inside the base plate 1. The bottom plate 1 has two sliding grooves 10 inside the bottom plate 1 and located at the discharge end of the feeding trough 7. The two sliding grooves 10 are arranged opposite each other. The baffle 82 is slidably installed between the two sliding grooves 10, so that the baffle 82 remains stable and accurate during the sliding process, without any deviation or shaking. This ensures that the blocking and opening operation of the feeding trough 7 is accurate and reliable, and avoids waste leakage or failure to feed normally due to the positional deviation of the baffle 82.
[0031] In this embodiment, the transmission structure 9 includes a support base 91 fixed to the upper surface of the base plate 1. A rotating shaft 92 is mounted on the internal bearing of the support base 91. A take-up reel 93 is fixed to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 92. A lifting rope 94, fixed to the top side of the baffle plate 82, is wound around the inside of the take-up reel 93. A support frame 95, which supports the lifting rope 94, is fixed to the outer surface of the gantry frame 81. The transmission structure 9 also includes a drive shaft 96 rotatably disposed outside the support base 91. A driven gear 97 is fixed to the bottom end of the drive shaft 96, and a gear component 98 meshing with one end of the rotating shaft 92 is provided at the top end of the drive shaft 96. A rack 99 meshing with the driven gear 97 is fixed to the outer surface of the clamp 5. The movement of the clamp 5 triggers the transmission structure 9, thereby driving the baffle plate 82 in the material blocking structure 8 to move, realizing fully automatic linkage of operations such as cutting, clamping, and opening / closing of the material unloading chute 7.
[0032] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0033] Place the aluminum profile in a suitable position on the base plate 1, activate the hydraulic telescopic rod 6, its output end extends, driving the clamp 5 to move and clamp and fix the aluminum profile. Then activate the hydraulic telescopic rod 4, its output end extends to push the machine housing 31 down. The guide rod on the machine housing 31 slides inside the gantry frame 2 to ensure the stability of the descent process. At the same time, the drive motor starts and drives the cutting blade 32 to rotate.
[0034] The cutting blade 32 rotates to cut the aluminum profile. During the cutting process, the cutting blade 32 is connected to one of the rotating shafts 333 through a synchronous shaft 37, a synchronous pulley 38, and a synchronous belt 39. The rotation of the cutting blade 32 drives the rotating shaft 333 to rotate, and then through the meshing of two transmission gears 332, the other rotating shaft 333 also rotates, realizing the operation of the infusion pump 33. The infusion pump 33 delivers coolant through the connecting pipe 34 to the spray pipe 35, and then sprays it out through several nozzles 36 to cool and lubricate the cutting part.
[0035] Initially, the baffle plate 82 is positioned within the chute 10, blocking the material feeding chute 7. When the clamp 5 moves to hold the aluminum profile, the rack 99 on the outer surface of the clamp 5 meshes with the driven gear 97, causing the driven gear 97 to rotate. This, in turn, is transmitted through the meshing of the gear component 98, causing the drive shaft 96 to rotate. The drive shaft 96 then drives the rotating shaft 92 to rotate, causing the take-up reel 93 on the rotating shaft 92 to rotate, winding up the lifting rope 94. This pulls the baffle plate 82 to slide within the chute 10, opening the material feeding chute 7. After cutting, the hydraulic telescopic rod 6 resets the clamp 5, the rack 99 moves in the opposite direction, causing the driven gear 97 to rotate in the opposite direction. This, in turn, is transmitted through the gear component 98 and the rotating shaft 92, causing the take-up reel 93 to rotate in the opposite direction, releasing the lifting rope 94. The baffle plate 82 resets under its own weight or other reset mechanisms, re-blocking the material feeding chute 7. The cut material then slides down the inclined material feeding chute 7 for collection.
[0036] The installation method, connection method, or setting method disclosed in this embodiment are all common mechanical connections.
[0037] Any connection method that can achieve its beneficial effect can be implemented. In addition, all electrical components in this embodiment are electrically connected to the main controller and the power supply. The main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer that plays a control role. Those skilled in the art can control the electrical components through simple programming. Moreover, the existing public power connection technology is also common knowledge in the field. Therefore, the specific structural composition and working principle will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
