Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a cutter wheel angle adjustment mechanism, and more particularly to a cutter wheel angle adjustment mechanism for a manual tile cutter. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, manual ceramic tile cutters are widely known in the market. Their base has a support surface for the ceramic part being cut, at least one longitudinal guide rail for manually movable head, and a cutting wheel for separating the ceramic part. The cutting wheel is mounted on a sliding bracket via a transverse rotation axis. The cutter has a handle for clamping and handling. Manual tile cutters utilize mechanical force to create grooves on the tile surface before applying pressure to break it. Their core principle lies in achieving efficient cutting through precise grooves and leverage pressure. However, existing manual tile cutters often suffer from the drawback of non-parallelism between the cutting wheel and the guide rail, easily leading to poor cut product quality. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a manual tile cutter wheel angle adjustment mechanism. This facilitates adjustment of the cutter wheel angle and improves cutting quality.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model: a manual tile cutter wheel angle adjustment mechanism, comprising:

[0005] The mounting base is located at the lower part of the handle, and the middle part is provided with a cutter wheel fixing bolt and a locking nut perpendicular to the mounting base;

[0006] The cutter wheel is mounted on the cutter wheel fixing bolt via a bearing;

[0007] A gasket is provided on the cutter wheel fixing bolt and located between the cutter wheel and the mounting base;

[0008] The spacing adjustment mechanism is located in the mounting base and on both sides of the cutter wheel fixing bolt. By rotating relative to the mounting base, the distance between the shim and the cutter wheel and the mounting base can be changed.

[0009] An angle adjustment mechanism is located in the mounting base and on both sides of the cutter wheel fixing bolt. By rotating relative to the mounting base, the angle between the shim and the cutter wheel and the mounting base can be changed.

[0010] In the aforementioned manual tile cutter wheel angle adjustment mechanism, the spacing adjustment mechanism includes an upper screw located on the upper side of the cutter wheel fixing bolt and a lower screw located on the lower side of the cutter wheel fixing bolt. The upper screw and the lower screw can rotate relative to the mounting base and their ends abut against the washer. The upper screw and the lower screw extend out of the mounting base by the same length.

[0011] In the aforementioned manual tile cutter wheel angle adjustment mechanism, the angle adjustment mechanism includes a left screw located on the left side of the cutter wheel fixing bolt and a right screw located on the right side of the cutter wheel fixing bolt. The left screw and the right screw can rotate relative to the mounting base, and the angle of the cutter wheel is changed by the difference in the length of the left screw and the right screw extending relative to the mounting base.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0013] This application uses a spacing adjustment mechanism to adjust the distance between the cutter wheel and the shim and the mounting base, thereby improving applicability. Furthermore, the contact position between the spacing adjustment mechanism and the shim provides support for the shim, allowing the angle adjustment mechanism to use the contact position between the spacing adjustment mechanism and the shim as a fulcrum. By changing the extension length of the left and right screws relative to the mounting base, the angle of the cutter wheel can be adjusted, ensuring that the cutter wheel is parallel to the guide rail and improving cutting quality.

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but this should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0020] Example. A manual tile cutter wheel angle adjustment mechanism, configured as follows: Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes:

[0021] The mounting base is located at the lower part of the handle, and the middle part is provided with a cutter wheel fixing bolt 2 and a locking nut 10 perpendicular to the mounting base 1;

[0022] The cutter wheel 4 is mounted on the cutter wheel fixing bolt 2 via the bearing 3;

[0023] Gasket 5 is provided on cutter wheel fixing bolt 2 and located between cutter wheel 4 and mounting base 1;

[0024] The spacing adjustment mechanism is located in the mounting base 1 and on the upper and lower sides of the cutter wheel fixing bolt 2. By rotating relative to the mounting base 1, the distance between the shim 5 and the cutter wheel 4 and the mounting base 1 can be changed.

[0025] An angle adjustment mechanism is located in the mounting base 1 and on both sides of the cutter wheel fixing bolt 2. By rotating relative to the mounting base 1, the angle between the shim 5 and the cutter wheel 4 and the mounting base 1 can be changed.

[0026] The spacing adjustment mechanism includes an upper screw 6 located on the upper side of the cutter wheel fixing bolt 2 and a lower screw 7 located on the lower side of the cutter wheel fixing bolt 2. The upper screw 6 and the lower screw 7 can rotate relative to the mounting base 1 and their ends abut against the washer 5. The upper screw 6 and the lower screw 7 extend out of the mounting base 1 by the same length.

[0027] The angle adjustment mechanism includes a left screw 8 located on the left side of the cutter wheel fixing bolt 2 and a right screw 9 located on the right side of the cutter wheel fixing bolt 2. The left screw 8 and the right screw 9 can rotate relative to the mounting base 1. The angle of the cutter wheel 4 is changed by the difference in the length of the left screw 8 and the right screw 9 extending relative to the mounting base 1.

[0028] The bearing 3 mentioned above can be a deep groove ball bearing.

[0029] The principle of this utility model: This application is used to adjust the position and angle of the cutter wheel. The cutter wheel 4 and the washer 5 are fixed to the mounting base 1 by the cutter wheel fixing bolt 2. The cutter wheel fixing bolt 2 is locked by the locking nut 10 located on the other side of the mounting base 1. The mounting base 1 is provided with screw holes corresponding to the spacing adjustment mechanism and the angle adjustment mechanism. The upper screw 6 and the lower screw 7 rotate relative to the mounting base 1. If the extension length of the upper screw 6 and the lower screw 7 relative to the mounting base 1 increases, the cutter wheel 4 and the washer 5 move away from the mounting base 1. Then, when the locking nut 10 and the cutter wheel fixing bolt 2 are engaged and locked, the distance between the cutter wheel 4 and the washer 5 and the mounting base 1 will increase. If the extension length of the upper screw 6 and the lower screw 7 relative to the mounting base 1 decreases, the cutter wheel 4 and the washer 5 can move closer to the mounting base 1, so that the distance between the cutter wheel 4 and the washer 5 and the mounting base 1 will decrease. Furthermore, the extension lengths of the upper screw 6 and lower screw 7 relative to the mounting base 1 are kept consistent, forming a fulcrum for the rotation of the washer 5 and the cutter wheel 4. This allows the angles of the washer 5 and the cutter wheel 4 to be changed when the left screw 8 and right screw 9 rotate relative to the mounting base 1. The inner ring of the bearing 3 is confined to the fixing bolt and coaxially positioned. The outer ring of the bearing 3 and the cutter wheel 4 are initially connected with glue and then fixedly connected by welding. This allows the outer ring of the bearing 3 to rotate relative to the inner ring of the bearing 3 together with the cutter wheel 4. For example, if the left screw is loosened and retracted, and the right screw is tightened and extended, the cutter wheel 4 and the washer 5 will rotate. If the left screw 8 and right screw 9 are operated in opposite directions, the cutter wheel 4 and the washer 5 will rotate in the opposite direction, thus making the cutter wheel 4 parallel to the guide rail and improving cutting quality.
