[0002] Guardrails are mainly used in roads, bridges, roadblocks, villa fences, and roadside fences. They are widely used due to their excellent steel-plasticity, high strength, and corrosion resistance. After production, guardrails are often quite long and need to be cut to size according to requirements.

[0003] In the prior art, such as in publication number CN213614563U, a cutting device for processing aluminum alloy green building material railings is disclosed. It includes a machine body, a support rod, a hydraulic cylinder, and a motor. The machine body is provided with a tool storage drawer, and an operating table is provided on the upper side of the tool storage drawer. The operating table is provided with a slide rail, and the slide rail is slidably connected to a push rod. At the same time, a fixing plate is provided on both the push rod and the slide rail. The support rod is located on the upper left of the machine body, and a motor is provided on the support rod. The motor is fixedly connected to an electric push rod, and a slider is provided on the electric push rod. One end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the slider, and the other end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to a piston rod. The motor is fixedly connected to the piston rod, and the motor is rotatably connected to the cutting blade through a connecting shaft.

[0004] Although the aforementioned patent includes an electric push rod and a cutting blade, with the electric push rod driving the cutting blade below the motor to move, facilitating the adjustment of the cutting blade's position and making it easier to cut the guardrail on the operating table, the cutting environment is exposed, which can easily lead to safety hazards due to metal splatter or damage to the cutting wheel; in addition, the debris generated during cutting cannot be processed, and the flying debris can also affect the hygiene of the surrounding environment; therefore, a cutting device for guardrail processing is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as exposed cutting environments that are prone to safety hazards due to metal splatter or broken cutting wheels, and the inability to process the resulting debris, which also negatively impacts the surrounding environment, this invention proposes a cutting device for guardrail processing.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: The cutting device for processing guardrails according to this utility model includes a cutting cabinet. Electric push rods are sleeved on both sides of the cutting cabinet. One end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to a clamping plate. A control board is sleeved inside the cavity opened on the top surface of the cutting cabinet. A waste bin is opened inside the cutting cabinet. A partition net is fixedly connected to the top surface of the waste bin, and a slide rail is set on its side and slidably connected to the waste bin. Hinges are fixedly fixedly connected on both sides of the feed inlet of the cutting cabinet. Side plates are fixedly connected to the sides of the hinges. Electromagnets are fixedly connected to the adjacent parts of the feed inlet and infrared probes are sleeved.

[0007] Preferably, the infrared probe detects the closed state of the side panel and transmits the signal to the control board, which then controls the extension and retraction of the electric push rod and the start and stop of the cutting cabinet based on the signal.

[0008] Preferably, the waste bin is located directly below the clamping plate, and the partition mesh on top of it allows the cutting debris to pass through and fall into the waste bin for centralized collection.

[0009] Preferably, the telescopic end of the electric push rod extends through the sleeve hole in the side wall of the cutting cabinet and into the interior, driving the two clamping plates to move in opposite directions to clamp and fix the workpiece placed on the surface of the partition mesh.

[0010] Preferably, the side panel can be opened and closed to cover the feed inlet of the cutting cabinet via a hinge, and when closed, it is locked by an electromagnet and forms a position sensing relationship with the infrared probe.

[0011] Preferably, the waste bin is slidably mounted inside the waste hopper via a slide rail, and its side is provided with a handle structure for manual pulling.

[0012] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. This utility model provides a closable side plate and its linkage mechanism at the feed inlet of the cutting cabinet. The infrared probe detects the closed state of the side plate and transmits a signal to the control board. The control board then forcibly interlocks the start and stop of the cutting cabinet and the action of the electric push rod, thereby achieving a fully enclosed cutting environment and completely avoiding safety accidents caused by metal splashes or damage to the cutting wheel.

[0014] 2. This utility model utilizes a partition net fixed to the top of the waste bin to support the workpiece and screen the debris, allowing it to fall directly into the waste bin assembled with a slide rail for centralized collection, thus achieving fully enclosed automatic collection of cutting debris and completely eliminating the impact of debris splashing on environmental hygiene.

[0021] 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 scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, a cutting device for guardrail processing includes a cutting cabinet 1. Electric push rods 2 are fitted with sleeve holes on both sides of the cutting cabinet 1. One end of the electric push rod 2 is fixedly connected to a clamping plate 3. A control plate 4 is fitted inside a cavity on the top surface of the cutting cabinet 1. A waste bin is opened inside the cutting cabinet 1. A partition net 10 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the waste bin, and a slide rail is provided on its side and slidably connected to a waste box 5. Hinges 6 are fixedly connected symmetrically on both sides of the feed inlet of the cutting cabinet 1. Side plates 7 are fixedly connected to the side of the hinges 6. Electromagnets 8 are fixedly connected to the adjacent parts of the feed inlet and an infrared probe 9 is fitted with a sleeve hole.

[0023] Infrared probe 9 detects the closed state of side panel 7 and transmits the signal to control board 4. Control board 4 controls the extension and retraction of electric push rod 2 and the start and stop of processing of cutting cabinet 1 according to the signal.

[0024] During operation, when the operator closes the side plate 7 covering the feed inlet of the cutting cabinet 1 and locks it in contact with the electromagnet 8, the infrared probe 9 monitors the closed position of the side plate 7 in real time and sends a position signal to the control board 4. Based on this signal, the control board 4 triggers the electric push rod 2 to extend through the side wall sleeve hole and drive the two clamping plates 3 to move in opposite directions, pressing and fixing the workpiece to the surface of the partition net 10. At the same time, the internal cutting mechanism of the cutting cabinet 1 is linked to start processing, forming a fully enclosed cutting environment.

[0025] Furthermore, the waste bin is located directly below the clamping plate 3, and the partition net 10 on top of it allows the cutting debris to pass through and fall into the waste bin 5 for centralized collection;

[0026] During operation, the debris generated during the cutting process falls directly into the waste bin through the partition net 10 directly below the clamping plate 3. The waste bin 5 automatically collects the falling debris by receiving it through the side slide rail. The operator periodically holds the handle structure of the waste bin 5 and pulls it out along the slide rail to complete the centralized cleaning.

[0027] Furthermore, the side panel 7 can be opened and closed to cover the feed inlet of the cutting cabinet 1 via the hinge 6. When it is closed, it is attracted and locked by the electromagnet 8 and forms a position sensing relationship with the infrared probe 9.

[0028] During operation, when the operator pushes the side plate 7 to rotate around the hinge 6 to the closed position covering the feed inlet of the cutting cabinet 1, the electromagnet 8 is energized to generate magnetic attraction to fix the side plate 7. At the same time, the infrared sensor 9 detects the locked position of the side plate 7 in real time and sends a closing signal to the control board 4. The physical locking of the side plate 7 and the closed-loop detection of the infrared sensor 9, achieved by the hinge 6 and the electromagnet 8, ensure that the forced cutting process must be carried out in a closed environment, eliminating the safety hazards of metal splashes or cutting wheel breakage from the structural source.

[0029] Furthermore, the waste bin 5 is slidably mounted inside the waste hopper via a slide rail, and its side is provided with a handle structure for manual pulling.

[0030] During operation, the debris passing through the partition mesh 10 falls freely to the bottom of the waste bin, where it is caught by the linearly constrained waste bin 5 via a sliding rail. The operator holds the handle on the side and pulls the waste bin 5 horizontally along the sliding rail to complete the debris removal. By utilizing the sliding rail to restrict the movement trajectory of the waste bin 5 and the ergonomic design of the handle, the directional collection and convenient disassembly of debris within the enclosed cavity are achieved, completely solving the problem of cutting debris splashing and polluting the environment, and significantly reducing the intensity of cleaning operations.

[0031] Working principle: After the operator places the guardrail workpiece on the surface of the partition mesh 10 on top of the waste bin inside the cutting cabinet 1, the side plate 7 of the feed inlet is closed and rotated around the hinge 6 to the closed position. At this time, the electromagnet 8 is energized to attract and lock the side plate 7. The infrared probe 9 detects the closed state of the side plate 7 in real time and sends a safety signal to the control board 4. After receiving the signal, the control board 4 immediately starts the electric push rod 2. Its telescopic end passes through the sleeve hole on the side wall of the cutting cabinet 1 and pushes the two clamping plates 3 to move in opposite directions, clamping and fixing the workpiece on the partition mesh 10. The cutting mechanism inside the cutting cabinet 1 is activated synchronously with the control board 4 to process the workpiece. The metal scraps generated during the process pass through the partition mesh 10 and fall into the waste bin 5. The waste bin 5 is constrained in the waste bin by the slide rail to receive the scraps. After processing, the operator holds the handle structure of the waste bin 5 and pulls it horizontally along the slide rail to remove the scraps. At the same time, the electromagnet 8 is de-energized to release the side plate 7 to open the feed inlet and remove the finished product.

[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or similar improvements made within the theoretical and principle content of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
