Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cutting wire technology, and more specifically, to an automated cutting wire positioning mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] An automated cutting line positioning mechanism is a core subsystem integrated into automated cutting equipment. Through the collaboration of mechanical structure, sensors and control system, it can accurately calibrate and fix the spatial position of the material to be cut (metal, plastic, composite material, etc.). Its core task is to ensure that the material is always in the preset coordinate position during the cutting process.
[0003] There are many existing technologies for garbage collection vessels, such as:
[0004] Chinese patent application CN216990245U discloses a positioning mechanism for a wire cutting device, belonging to the technical field of wire cutting devices. It includes a cutting table and a work box. The work box is located at the bottom of the cutting table, and a stepper motor is bolted to the bottom of the inner cavity of the work box. The stepper motor provides driving force, and the driving pulley and driven pulley provide transmission force, thereby driving the lead screw to rotate. Through the cooperation of a threaded sleeve, the support can be moved, facilitating the adjustment of the distance between the support and the cutting table. Simultaneously, the moving plate and spring provide elastic rebound buffering, which can buffer the pressing of objects on the cutting table, preventing the support from directly pressing the objects and causing damage. This satisfies the positioning function of the support for the objects on the cutting table, improves the protection of the cutting objects, enhances the flexibility of the wire cutting device, and increases its working efficiency.
[0005] During the cutting process, the steel strip lacks stable support underneath, making it prone to denting due to the cutting force. This causes the steel strip to bend and deform, resulting in irregular shapes, severe dimensional deviations, and numerous defects at the cut, which greatly wastes raw materials and processing costs. In view of this, we propose an automated cutting line positioning mechanism. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings and provide an automated cutting line positioning mechanism, which solves the problem that the steel strip is prone to bending when cutting the steel strip.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an automated cutting line positioning mechanism, including an operating platform and an electric slide rail mounted on the operating platform. An electric slider is slidably connected inside the electric slide rail, and a support positioning mechanism is provided on the electric slider.
[0008] The support and positioning mechanism includes a bidirectional threaded rod that is rotatably connected to an electric slider. Two movable clamping blocks are threadedly connected to the surface of the bidirectional threaded rod. Two sets of rotating rods are movably connected to both sides of the two movable clamping blocks. A lifting plate is movably connected between the two sets of rotating rods. A clamping plate is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting plate.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0010] 1. In this utility model, the drive motor drives the bidirectional threaded rod to rotate, causing the two moving clamps to move towards or in opposite directions. This action is simultaneously linked to two sets of rotating rods, so that the lifting plate can be raised and lowered smoothly, and the clamping plate can also adjust its height accordingly to support the steel strip, prevent the steel strip from denting during cutting, causing the steel strip to bend, ensure that the shape of the cutting part is regular, reduce dimensional deviation and cutting defects, and improve the product qualification rate.
[0011] Furthermore, by using the movable clamping plate and pressure plate together, both ends of the steel strip can be fixed. The up-and-down movement of the pressure plate can fix steel strips of different thicknesses, preventing the steel strip from moving during cutting and ensuring the stability of the equipment during cutting.
[0012] As a further improvement to this technical solution, a bracket is fixedly installed on one side of the operating platform for installing cutting equipment. Support legs for ensuring the stability of the operating platform are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the operating platform. The outer rings at both ends of the bidirectional threaded rod are rotatably connected to fixed plates through bearings, and the fixed plates are fixedly connected to the electric slider. A drive motor is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional threaded rod, and the drive motor is fixedly installed at one end of the electric slider.
[0013] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the bidirectional threaded rod is rotatably connected to the fixed plate through the bearing, which reduces the frictional resistance during rotation, allowing the power output of the drive motor to be transmitted to the bidirectional threaded rod more efficiently, ensuring its smooth rotation. The fixed plate is fixedly connected to the electric slider, so that the bidirectional threaded rod and the entire support positioning mechanism and the electric slider form a stable whole. During the movement of the electric slider, the bidirectional threaded rod and other components will not loosen or shift, ensuring that the positioning mechanism can work stably in different positions, thereby ensuring the accuracy of workpiece positioning.
[0014] As a further improvement to this technical solution, an electric push rod is fixedly connected to the top of each of the two movable clamping blocks. A pressure plate is fixedly connected through the electric push rod through the movable clamping block. A steel strip is placed below the pressure plate. The pressure plate limits the steel strip by the extension and retraction of the electric push rod. The lifting plate is raised and lowered by the movement of the two movable clamping blocks. The lifting plate is movably connected to two sets of rotating rods through a rotating shaft. Grooves are provided inside the two movable clamping blocks for the up and down movement of the pressure plate. Sliding holes for the movement of the electric push rod are provided on the top of each of the two movable clamping blocks.
[0015] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the electric push rod connects to the pressure plate, and the pressure of the pressure plate on the steel strip can be precisely controlled by the extension and retraction. Regardless of the thickness of the steel strip, it can be firmly limited to prevent the steel strip from shifting during cutting, ensuring the accuracy of the cutting size, greatly improving the cutting quality, and is suitable for various high-precision cutting needs.

[0023] 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.
[0024] The present invention provides the following preferred embodiments.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides an automated cutting line positioning mechanism, including an operating platform 100 and an electric slide rail 101 mounted on the operating platform 100. An electric slider 102 is slidably connected inside the electric slide rail 101, and a support positioning mechanism 200 is provided on the electric slider 102.
[0026] The support positioning mechanism 200 includes a bidirectional threaded rod 201 that is rotatably connected to the electric slider 102. Two movable clamping blocks 202 are threadedly connected to the surface of the bidirectional threaded rod 201. Two sets of rotating rods 203 are movably connected to both sides of the two movable clamping blocks 202. A lifting plate 204 is movably connected between the two sets of rotating rods 203. A clamping plate 205 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting plate 204.
[0027] When the drive motor is turned on, it drives the bidirectional threaded rod 201 to rotate. The two movable clamping blocks 202 on the bidirectional threaded rod 201 move in opposite directions or in the opposite direction according to the thread transmission principle. During the movement of the movable clamping blocks 202, the lifting plate 204 is raised and lowered through the rotating rod 203 connected on both sides, so that the clamping plate 205 at the top of the lifting plate 204 reaches a suitable support height, which plays a supporting and positioning role for the steel strip 104.
[0028] The improvement in this embodiment is as follows:
[0029] A bracket 103 is fixedly installed on one side of the operating platform 100 for installing cutting equipment. Support legs are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the operating platform 100 to ensure the stability of the operating platform 100. The outer rings at both ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 201 are rotatably connected to fixed plates through bearings, and the fixed plates are fixedly connected to the electric slider 102. A drive motor is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional threaded rod 201, and the drive motor is fixedly installed at one end of the electric slider 102.
[0030] The two ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 201 are rotatably connected to the fixed plate through bearings. Utilizing the principle of bearings to reduce friction, the bidirectional threaded rod 201 can run with low resistance when rotating, ensuring that the power output from the drive motor is efficiently transmitted to the bidirectional threaded rod 201. The fixed plate is fixedly connected to the electric slider 102. Based on the principle of mechanical connection stability, the bidirectional threaded rod 201 and related components are formed into a solid whole with the electric slider 102. This ensures that the bidirectional threaded rod 201 and other components will not loosen or shift during the movement of the electric slider 102, ensuring that the positioning mechanism can work stably in different positions, thereby ensuring the accuracy of workpiece positioning.
[0031] Electric push rods 206 are fixedly connected to the top of each of the two movable clamping blocks 202. A pressure plate 207 is fixedly connected through the electric push rod 206 and the movable clamping block 202. A steel strip 104 is placed below the pressure plate 207. The pressure plate 207 limits the steel strip 104 by the extension and retraction of the electric push rod 206. The lifting plate 204 is raised and lowered by the movement of the two movable clamping blocks 202. The lifting plate 204 is movably connected to two sets of rotating rods 203 through a rotating shaft. The interior of the two movable clamping blocks 202 is provided with grooves for the up and down movement of the pressure plate 207. The top of each of the two movable clamping blocks 202 is provided with sliding holes for the movement of the electric push rod 206.
[0032] The electric push rod 206 is fixed to the top of the movable clamping block 202. Its push rod passes through the movable clamping block 202 and is connected to the pressure plate 207. When the electric push rod 206 receives a control signal to start, the push rod extends or retracts, driving the pressure plate 207 to move up and down, ensuring that the steel strip 104 maintains a fixed position during cutting, ensuring the accuracy of the cutting size, avoiding cutting deviation caused by the movement of the steel strip 104, improving the cutting quality, and is suitable for steel strip 104 cutting operations with high precision requirements.
[0033] In practical use, the positioning mechanism of this utility model for automated cutting lines requires the following preparations: the cutting equipment is installed on the bracket 103 on one side of the operating platform 100, and the electric slide rail 101 is started to drive the electric slider 102 to move close to the position to be cut on the steel strip 104, in preparation for subsequent positioning.
[0034] When the drive motor is turned on, the drive motor drives the bidirectional threaded rod 201 to rotate. The two movable clamping blocks 202 on the bidirectional threaded rod 201 move in opposite directions or in the opposite direction according to the thread transmission principle. During the movement of the movable clamping blocks 202, the lifting plate 204 is raised and lowered through the rotating rod 203 connected on both sides, so that the clamping plate 205 at the top of the lifting plate 204 reaches a suitable support height, which plays a supporting and positioning role for the steel strip 104.
[0035] The electric push rod 206 at the top of the moving clamp 202 is activated. The electric push rod 206 extends and pushes the pressure plate 207 downward, pressing the steel strip 104 tightly onto the operating platform 100, thus completing the limiting and fixing of the steel strip 104. The cutting equipment is then operated to cut the steel strip 104 that has been limited and fixed. During the cutting process, the support and positioning mechanism 200 continuously maintains stable support and limiting of the steel strip 104.
[0036] The electric push rod 206 retracts, causing the pressure plate 207 to rise and leave the steel strip 104. The drive motor reverses, and the bidirectional threaded rod 201 drives the moving clamp 202 to reset. The lifting plate 204 and the clamping plate 205 also return to their initial positions. The electric slider 102 moves to the appropriate position on the electric slide rail 101 for the next cutting and positioning operation.
[0037] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
