Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oxide layer removal technology, specifically to an oxide layer removal device for titanium alloy tubes. Background Technology

[0002] Titanium alloys, as a lightweight, high-strength, and corrosion-resistant alloy material, are widely used in aerospace, medical, and chemical industries. However, during the production and use of titanium alloy tubes, an oxide layer often forms on their surface. This not only affects the aesthetics of the titanium alloy tubes but may also have a potential impact on their performance and service life. There are various methods for removing the oxide layer from the surface of titanium alloy tubes, such as mechanical grinding and chemical pickling.

[0003] In existing technologies, when using mechanical grinding or chemical pickling to remove the oxide layer from titanium alloy tubes, the size of the oxide layer removal device limits the length and diameter of the titanium alloy tube. Most devices cannot remove the oxide layer from titanium alloy tubes of different lengths and diameters. Therefore, an oxide layer removal device for titanium alloy tubes is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device for removing oxide layers from titanium alloy tubes, so as to solve the problem that most of the devices proposed in the background art cannot adapt to titanium alloy tubes of different lengths and diameters.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A device for removing oxide layer from titanium alloy tubes includes a base plate. A laser instrument is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the base plate. Laser emitting heads are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate on both sides of the laser instrument. A plurality of fixed frames are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate and evenly distributed on one side of the laser emitting heads. A plurality of limiting rods that penetrate the fixed frames and are distributed along the polar axis are slidably connected inside the fixed frames. A limiting spring is provided on the outside of the limiting rods. A baffle is fixedly connected to one end of the limiting rod. A ball seat is fixedly connected to the end of the limiting rod away from the baffle. A universal ball is rolled inside the ball seat. A plurality of sets of rotating conveying assemblies are installed on the top of the base plate and arranged obliquely on one side of the fixed frames. A titanium alloy tube body is horizontally arranged and located inside the fixed frames below the rotating conveying assemblies.

[0007] Preferably, the rotary conveying assembly includes a fixed frame fixedly connected to the top of the base plate, a transmission roller rotatably connected to the inner side of the fixed frame, a motor fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixed frame, and the output shaft of the motor fixedly connected to one end of the transmission roller.

[0008] Preferably, the outer side of the universal ball is in close contact with the outer side of the titanium alloy tube body, and the outer side of the transmission roller is in close contact with the outer side of the titanium alloy tube body.

[0009] Preferably, one end of the limiting spring is fixedly connected to the ball seat, and the side of the limiting spring away from the ball seat is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixed frame.

[0010] Preferably, the rotary conveying assembly has a mounting frame fixedly connected to the top of the base plate on one side, and mounting rails arranged symmetrically are fixedly connected to the top of the mounting frame. A protective plate is engaged with the inner side of the mounting frame and the mounting rails, and a bracket is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting rails.

[0011] Preferably, the mounting frame is horizontally aligned with the laser emitter and located on the opposite side of the laser emitter, the bracket is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate, and the bracket is located on the side of the mounting frame away from the laser emitter.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. In this utility model, the device is equipped with a laser instrument, a laser emitting head, a fixed frame, a limiting rod, a limiting spring, a baffle, a ball seat, a universal ball, and a rotating conveying assembly. When using the device, the motor is started, and the titanium alloy tube body is inserted into the inside of the fixed frame and below the rotating conveying assembly. Since the limiting rod can slide inside the fixed frame, the device can adapt to titanium alloy tube bodies that are slightly larger or smaller. During the rotation of the conveying roller, the titanium alloy tube body rotates and moves to the rear of the device. When the titanium alloy tube body moves to the position of the laser emitting head, the laser instrument is started, thereby removing the oxide layer on the outside of the titanium alloy tube body. This design allows the device to adapt to titanium alloy tube bodies of different lengths and diameters, making the device more adaptable.

[0014] 2. In this utility model, the installation frame, installation rail, protective plate, and bracket are designed so that the protective plate is inserted into the installation frame and installation rail before using the device. When using the device, the laser emitted by the laser emitter that exceeds the range of the titanium alloy tube body always hits the protective plate. The protective plate can eliminate the laser that exceeds the range of the titanium alloy tube body, ensuring the safety of the device. After the device has been used for a period of time, the protective plate can be removed from the installation frame and installation rail and replaced to avoid the protective plate being penetrated by the laser and causing a safety accident.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0025] A device for removing oxide layer from titanium alloy tubes includes a base plate 1. A laser instrument 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the base plate 1. Laser emitters 3 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1 on both sides of the laser instrument 2. Multiple fixed frames 4 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1 and evenly distributed on one side of the laser emitters 3. Multiple limiting rods 5 are slidably connected inside the fixed frames 4 and distributed along the polar axis. Limiting springs 6 are provided on the outside of the limiting rods 5. A baffle 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the limiting rod 5. A ball seat 8 is fixedly connected to the end of the limiting rod 5 away from the baffle 7. A universal ball 9 is rotatably connected to the inside of the ball seat 8. Multiple sets of rotary conveying assemblies 10 are installed on the top of the base plate 1 and arranged obliquely on one side of the fixed frames 4. A titanium alloy tube body 11 is horizontally arranged and located inside the fixed frames 4 below the rotary conveying assemblies 10. The rotary conveying assembly 10 includes a fixed frame 101 fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. A transmission roller 102 is rotatably connected to the inside of the fixed frame 101. A motor 103 is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed frame 101. The output shaft of motor 103 is fixedly connected to one end of transmission roller 102. The outer side of universal ball 9 is tightly fitted to the outer side of titanium alloy tube body 11. The outer side of transmission roller 102 is tightly fitted to the outer side of titanium alloy tube body 11. One end of limit spring 6 is fixedly connected to ball seat 8. The side of limit spring 6 away from ball seat 8 is fixedly connected to the inner side of fixed frame 4. With the laser instrument 2, laser emitter 3, fixed frame 4, limit rod 5, limit spring 6, baffle 7, ball seat 8, universal ball 9 and rotary conveying assembly 10 set, when using the device, motor 103 is started and titanium alloy tube body 11 is inserted into the inner side of fixed frame 4 and below rotary conveying assembly 10. During the rotation of transmission roller 102, titanium alloy tube body 11 rotates and moves to the rear of the device. When titanium alloy tube body 11 moves to the position of laser emitter 3, laser instrument 2 is started, thereby removing the oxide layer on the outer side of titanium alloy tube body 11. This design allows the device to adapt to titanium alloy tube bodies 11 of different lengths and diameters, making the device more adaptable.

[0026] A mounting frame 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1 on one side of the rotary conveyor assembly 10. A symmetrically arranged mounting rail 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting frame 12. A protective plate 14 is engaged with the inner side of the mounting frame 12 and the mounting rail 13. A bracket 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting rail 13. The mounting frame 12 is horizontally aligned with the laser emitter 3 and located on the opposite side of the laser emitter 3. The bracket 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1 and is located on the side of the mounting frame 12 away from the laser emitter 3. The mounting frame 12 and mounting rail 13... The protective plate 14 and the bracket 15 are used. Before using the device, the protective plate 14 is inserted into the mounting frame 12 and the mounting rail 13. When using the device, the laser emitted by the laser emitter 3 that exceeds the range of the titanium alloy tube body 11 always hits the protective plate 14. The protective plate 14 can eliminate the laser that exceeds the range of the titanium alloy tube body 11, ensuring the safety of the device. After the device has been used for a period of time, the protective plate 14 can be removed from the mounting frame 12 and the mounting rail 13 and replaced to avoid the protective plate 14 being penetrated by the laser and causing a safety accident.

[0027] Workflow: Before use, power on the equipment and connect the external control components. Insert the protective plate 14 into the mounting frame 12 and mounting rail 13 on one side of the bracket 15. When it is necessary to remove the oxide layer of the titanium alloy tube body 11, start the motor 103 and insert the titanium alloy tube body 11 into the fixed frame 4 and below the rotary conveying component 10. During this process, the titanium alloy tube body 11 squeezes the universal ball 9 and ball seat 8. The limiting rod 5 on one side of the baffle 7 slides inside the fixed frame 4, and the limiting spring 6 is compressed. When the titanium alloy tube body 11 moves to below the transmission roller 102 inside the fixed frame 101, the limit spring 6 resets, causing the limit rod 5 to slide inside the fixed frame 4. The ball seat 8 and the universal ball 9 drive the titanium alloy tube body 11 to move, so that the outer side of the titanium alloy tube body 11 is in close contact with the outer side of the universal ball 9 and the outer side of the transmission roller 102, respectively. At this time, the output shaft of the motor 103 rotates, causing the transmission roller 102 to rotate. Since there is an angle between the transmission roller 102 and the titanium alloy tube body 11, during the rotation of the transmission roller 102... During the process, the titanium alloy tube body 11 rotates and moves to the rear of the device, and the universal ball 9 rotates inside the ball seat 8. When the titanium alloy tube body 11 moves to the position of the laser emitting head 3, the laser device 2 at the bottom of the base plate 1 is activated. At this time, the laser emitting head 3 emits laser light to remove the oxide layer on the outside of the titanium alloy tube body 11. The titanium alloy tube body 11 rotates and moves continuously so that the laser can uniformly remove the oxide layer on the outside of the titanium alloy tube body 11. The laser light emitted by the laser emitting head 3 that exceeds the range of the titanium alloy tube body 11 always hits the protective plate 14. The protective plate 14 can eliminate the laser light that exceeds the range of the titanium alloy tube body 11, ensuring the safety of the device. The design of the components inside the fixed frame 4 and the rotating conveying assembly 10 allows the device to adapt to titanium alloy tube bodies 11 of different lengths and diameters, making the device more adaptable. After the device has been used for a period of time, the protective plate 14 can be removed from the mounting frame 12 and the mounting rail 13 and replaced to prevent the protective plate 14 from being punctured by the laser and causing a safety accident.
