Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cutting equipment, and in particular to a metal cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of metal processing, cutting devices are widely used for grooving, scoring, and other machining operations on the surface of metal workpieces. Traditional metal cutting devices typically include a worktable, a workpiece fixture, and a movable cutting head. During operation, the metal parts to be processed must be manually clamped onto the fixture one by one for positioning and fixation. Then, the cutting head cuts the surface of the workpiece along a preset path. After completion, the workpiece must be manually unloaded and the above process must be repeated.

[0003] However, the cutting head can only process one metal part at a time, and the workpiece clamping, positioning, and unloading processes are highly dependent on manual operation, resulting in low cutting efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a metal cutting device that can reduce the time for workpiece loading, clamping, and unloading, improve the cutting efficiency of the device, and enhance the automation level of the equipment.

[0005] A metal cutting device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a conveying mechanism for conveying metal parts; a transfer mechanism for transferring multiple metal parts from the discharge end of the conveying mechanism; a loading mechanism including a first linear moving component, a first clamping component, and a second clamping component, wherein the first linear moving component is arranged horizontally, and the first and second clamping components clamp or release the metal parts relative to each other; the first clamping component includes a first clamping block and a first cylinder for moving the first clamping block; the second clamping component includes a second clamping block and a second cylinder for moving the second clamping block; a positioning groove is formed between opposite sides of the first and second clamping blocks, and the positioning groove accommodates multiple metal parts from the transfer mechanism; and a cutting mechanism including a cutting power head disposed in the moving direction of the first linear moving component, the cutting power head being used to cut the metal parts on the positioning groove.

[0006] A metal cutting device according to an embodiment of the present utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0007] 1. This utility model sets up a conveying mechanism and a transfer mechanism. The conveying mechanism transports metal parts, and the transfer mechanism transfers multiple metal parts from the conveying mechanism to the clamping station, so that multiple metal parts can be loaded at one time, improving the loading efficiency and increasing the degree of automation.

[0008] 2. This utility model, by setting up a first linear motion component, a first clamping component, a second clamping component, and a cutting mechanism, moves the first and second clamping components to the clamping station. The first clamping component, by setting up a first clamping block and a first cylinder, uses the first cylinder to drive the first clamping block to move horizontally. Similarly, the second clamping component, by setting up a second clamping block and a second cylinder, uses the second cylinder to drive the second clamping block to move horizontally. This causes the first and second clamping blocks to clamp multiple fixed metal parts relative to each other, simultaneously confining and positioning the multiple metal parts within the positioning groove. Driven by the first linear motion component, the metal parts move closer to the cutting power head, and the cutting power head performs grooving processing on the surface of the metal parts. The first and second clamping components then release their proximity to the metal parts, and the transfer mechanism removes the processed multiple metal parts from the clamping station. Thus, the cutting head completes batch cutting in a single stroke, reducing workpiece loading, clamping, and unloading time, improving the cutting efficiency of the device, and enhancing the automation level of the equipment.

[0029] A metal cutting device according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Reference Figure 1The present invention aims to provide an embodiment of a metal cutting device.

[0031] A metal cutting device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a conveying mechanism and a transfer mechanism. The conveying mechanism is used to convey metal parts 290; the transfer mechanism is used to transfer multiple metal parts 290 from the discharge end of the conveying mechanism.

[0032] It is understood that by setting up a conveying mechanism and a transfer mechanism, the present invention uses the conveying mechanism to transport metal parts 290, and uses the transfer mechanism to transfer multiple metal parts 290 on the conveying mechanism to the clamping station, so that multiple metal parts 290 can be loaded at one time, improving the loading efficiency and increasing the degree of automation.

[0033] A metal part 290 cutting device according to an embodiment of this utility model, referring to... Figure 1 and Figure 4 It also includes a feeding mechanism and a cutting mechanism, including a first linear motion assembly 100, a first clamping assembly and a second clamping assembly. The first linear motion assembly 100 is arranged in a horizontal direction. The first linear motion assembly 100, the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly clamp or release the metal parts 290 relative to each other. The first clamping assembly includes a first clamping block 110 and a first cylinder 120 that drives the first clamping block 110 to move. The second clamping assembly includes a second clamping block 130 and a second cylinder 140 that drives the second clamping block 130 to move. A positioning groove 150 is formed between the first clamping block 110 and the second clamping block 130 on opposite sides. The positioning groove 150 accommodates multiple metal parts 290 from the transfer mechanism. It also includes a cutting power head 160, which is located in the moving direction of the first linear motion assembly 100. The cutting power head 160 is used to cut the metal parts 290 on the positioning groove 150.

[0034] It is understood that this utility model, by setting up a first linear motion component 100, a first clamping component, a second clamping component, and a cutting mechanism, moves the first linear motion component 100 to the clamping position. The first clamping component, by setting up a first clamping block 110 and a first cylinder 120, uses the first cylinder 120 to drive the first clamping block 110 to move horizontally. Similarly, the second clamping component, by setting up a second clamping block 130 and a second cylinder 140, uses the second cylinder 140 to drive the second clamping block 130 to move horizontally, so that the first clamping block 110 and the second clamping block 130 are positioned relative to each other. Multiple fixed metal parts 290 are clamped and simultaneously positioned within the positioning groove 150. Driven by the first linear motion component 100, the metal parts 290 move closer to the cutting power head 160. The cutting power head 160 performs grooving on the surface of the metal parts 290. The first clamping component and the second clamping component release the metal parts 290. Then, the transfer mechanism moves the processed metal parts 290 out of the clamping station. Thus, the cutting head completes batch cutting in a single stroke, reducing the time for workpiece loading, clamping, and unloading, improving the cutting efficiency of the device, and increasing the automation level of the equipment.

[0035] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 2 The conveying mechanism includes a conveyor belt 170 and a first motor 180 that drives the conveyor belt 170 to convey metal parts 290.

[0036] Understandably, the first motor 180 drives the conveyor belt 170 to rotate, and the conveyor belt 170 transports the metal parts 290 in a directional manner, replacing manual handling, providing stable materials for continuous processing, and reducing the labor intensity of workers.

[0037] In some embodiments of this utility model, two limiting rods 190 are provided above the conveyor belt 170. The two limiting rods 190 are arranged opposite to each other, and the movement position of the metal part 290 of the conveyor belt 170 is restricted between the two limiting rods 190.

[0038] Understandably, the two limit rods 190 are used to limit the movement of the metal parts 290 on the conveyor belt 170, preventing the metal parts 290 from deviating from the conveyor belt 170 during movement, and ensuring that the metal parts 290 are arranged in an orderly manner, so that the transfer mechanism can accurately grab multiple metal parts 290.

[0039] In some embodiments of this utility model, a limiting plate 200 is provided at the discharge end of the conveyor belt 170. The limiting plate 200 is used to abut against the metal part 290. It can be understood that the limiting plate 200 blocks the metal part 290 at the discharge end of the conveyor belt 170, forcibly stopping and positioning the workpiece, and providing a standardized material picking point for the transfer mechanism.

[0040] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A blocking assembly is provided at the discharge end of the conveyor belt 170 near the limiting plate 200. The blocking assembly includes a baffle 210 and a third cylinder 220 that drives the baffle 210 to move. The baffle 210 is used to intermittently block metal parts 290 on the conveyor belt 170. Multiple metal parts 290 are accommodated between the baffle 210 and the limiting plate 200.

[0041] Understandably, when the number of metal parts 290 between the baffle 210 and the limiting plate 200 reaches a certain amount, the third cylinder 220 drives the baffle 210 to move closer to the conveyor belt 170. The baffle 210 can block the forward-moving metal parts 290, making it easier for the transfer mechanism to grab multiple metal parts 290 at once between the baffle 210 and the limiting plate 200, so that the transfer mechanism can acquire multiple metal parts 290 in an orderly manner.

[0042] In some embodiments of this utility model, a photoelectric sensor 230 is provided on one side of the conveyor belt 170. The photoelectric sensor 230 is located on the side of the baffle 210 near the limiting plate 200. The photoelectric sensor 230 is used to calculate the number of metal parts 290 between the baffle 210 and the limiting plate 200.

[0043] Understandably, the photoelectric sensor 230 monitors the number of workpieces between the baffle 210 and the limit plate 200 in real time. When the number reaches the set value, it triggers the transfer mechanism to avoid empty grabbing or missed grabbing, and ensures that the number of metal parts 290 grabbed by the transfer mechanism is accurate.

[0044] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The transfer mechanism includes a gripper 240 and a power source that drives the gripper 240 to move. The gripper 240 is used to grip multiple metal parts 290. It can be understood that the gripper 240, together with the power source, enables the synchronous transfer of multiple metal parts 290, and quickly transfers multiple metal parts 290 from the conveying mechanism to the loading mechanism.

[0045] In some embodiments of this utility model, the power source includes a first linear motor module 250, a second linear motor module 260, and a lifting cylinder 270. The first linear motor module 250 and the second linear motor module 260 are vertically connected. The second linear motor module 260 is connected to the lifting cylinder 270, and the lifting cylinder 270 is connected to the gripper 240.

[0046] It is understandable that the first linear motor module 250 and the second linear motor module 260 drive the lifting cylinder 270 to move horizontally, and the lifting cylinder 270 drives the gripper 240 to rise and fall, so that the gripper 240 can be quickly positioned in the horizontal direction to the picking point and the loading point, ensuring that the gripper 240 can pick up multiple metal parts 290 and can correctly place multiple metal parts 290 in the positioning groove 150.

[0047] In some embodiments of this utility model, a receiving box 280 is also included. The receiving box 280 is located on one side of the cutting power head 160. The transfer mechanism can transfer the metal part 290 on the positioning groove 150 to the receiving box 280, so that the receiving box 280 can collect the processed metal part 290.

[0048] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first linear motion component 100 is a linear motor module. The linear motor module has a slide table, and a first clamping component and a second clamping component are installed on the top of the slide table. Therefore, the linear motor module accurately and smoothly conveys multiple metal parts 290 in the positioning groove 150 to the cutting position of the belt 170.

[0049] In the description of this specification, references to terms such as "an embodiment," "some embodiments," "illustrative embodiments," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., indicate that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example is included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0050] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
