In this process, the saw blade is automatically replaced when the range is set by real-time changes in torque load, thus realizing intelligent blade changing. This is quite common in metal processing cutting.

[0003] Existing technologies, such as the utility model patent with publication number CN212526303U, disclose a cutting device for metal product processing. This patent includes a base, characterized in that: a cutting table is provided on the top of the base, cylinders are provided at both ends of the top of the base, a cutting device is provided above the cutting table, and a crossbar is provided at the output end of cylinder one.

[0034] The working principle of the tool sharpness detection mechanism provided by this utility model is as follows: During the cutting operation of metal workpieces, the cutting module 3 is used to cut the metal workpieces to the required dimensions. At this time, the range can be set by the real-time change of torque load. If the range is exceeded, it is automatically determined that the saw blade needs to be replaced, thereby realizing intelligent tool changing. At the same time, for long-term operation, in order to facilitate effective protection of the entire cutting module 3, the protective mechanism 4 can be used for auxiliary operation. First, the rotating shaft 404 at one end of the mounting plate 401 is selected, and the rotating shaft 404 drives the surface of the mounting plate 401. The rotation of the drive shaft 403 causes the protective frames 410 on both sides of the surface of the frame 1 to slide along the limit rod 402, thereby opening and closing the two protective frames 410 and protecting the surface of the cutting module 3. When the two protective frames 410 are closed, the rotating rod 413 on the inner wall of the docking plate 412 is rotated so that the arc surface of the rotating rod 413 engages with the inner wall of the connecting plate 411. Then, the positioning shaft 414 on the arc surface of the rotating rod 413 is rotated so that the positioning shaft 414 abuts and fixes the connecting plate 411, thereby preventing the entire protective frame 410 from moving.

[0035] When collecting the cut metal parts, the carrying mechanism 5 on one side of the guide frame 6 can be used for collection and handling. First, the carrying frame 501 is fixed to one end of the guide frame 6. Then, the inlay frame 508 in the connecting frame 506 on both sides of the carrying frame 501 is flipped so that the inner wall of the inlay frame 508 is inserted into the inlay plate 509 on the side wall of the guide frame 6. Then, the insertion rod 510 on the side wall of the inlay frame 508 is pulled so that one end of the insertion rod 510 is inserted into and fixed to the surface of the inlay plate 509. The tension force generated by the spring 511 can protect the position of the insertion rod 510 and prevent it from falling off. Then, the guide plate 503 in the carrying frame 501 guides the metal parts for collection, which is convenient for collecting and handling the parts.

[0036] The circuits and controls involved in this utility model are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.
