Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass processing equipment technology, and in particular to a glass irregular shape cutting machine. Background Technology

[0002] In modern architecture, decoration, and electronics manufacturing, glass, as an important material, is increasingly widely used. To meet the needs of different scenarios, glass often needs to be cut into irregular shapes and sizes. However, traditional glass cutting equipment has many shortcomings in achieving irregular shape cutting. Existing glass cutting machines typically use fixed blades or simple mechanical structures, which are only suitable for cutting regular shapes. When faced with complex curves or irregular contours, cutting accuracy and efficiency are often difficult to guarantee. In addition, traditional cutting equipment relies heavily on manual operation, making it prone to cutting deviations due to human factors. Furthermore, the lack of efficient automated control methods further limits the improvement of production efficiency and product quality. More importantly, existing glass cutting equipment has a low utilization rate of glass material during the cutting process, easily leading to material waste and increasing production costs. Therefore, developing a glass irregular shape cutting machine that can efficiently complete irregular shape cutting, improve cutting accuracy, reduce material waste, and possess a certain degree of automation has become an urgent technical challenge to be solved.

The heights of the arc-shaped guide plates and the inclined baffles are both greater than the height of the cutter disc axis. Both the arc-shaped guide plates and the inclined baffles cooperate with the surface of the cutter disc. The arc-shaped guide plates, the inclined baffles, the top surface of the cutter disc, and the inner walls of the cutting chamber constitute a cutting chamber.

[0007] Both sides of the cutting box are equipped with main pulleys that cooperate with two guide rails. The main pulleys are equipped with ratchet structures with directional rotation functions.

Its unique feature lies in leveraging this reciprocating motion, combined with a conventional reducer and ratchet mechanism on the main pulley, to achieve slow rotation of the cutter head within the chamber. This slow rotation not only allows for switching between blade areas but also, due to its structural characteristics, enables multiple cuts to be performed on the glass in different blade areas. Since the blade areas on the cutter head can rotate and switch, even if blade wear occurs, a new blade area can be switched to handle the cutting work. This rotating cutting method reduces the frequency of cutter head replacement and simplifies maintenance. In summary, this cutting machine, through the coordination of simple mechanical structures, achieves cutting functionality while also featuring low blade replacement frequency and simplified maintenance.

[0020] This utility model provides a glass irregular shape cutting machine with a unique structural design and complete functions, especially suitable for high-precision cutting of complex shapes of glass. The following description, in conjunction with the appendix... Figure 1 To be continued Figure 3 The accompanying drawings and reference numerals provide a detailed description of the specific embodiments of this utility model. In practical applications, this utility model achieves efficient and precise glass cutting through the coordinated operation of the drive housing 2, the cutting housing 3, the auxiliary housing 13, and their internal components, effectively solving the problems of rapid blade wear and high maintenance costs associated with traditional equipment.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the base 1 serves as the fundamental support structure for the entire device. A drive housing 2 is fixedly mounted on one side of its top, while a support plate is fixedly connected to the other side. The drive housing 2 and the support plate are connected via spaced-apart guide rails 4. The cutting housing 3 is located between the two guide rails 4 and can reciprocate on them. The output end of the drive housing 2 is connected to the cutting housing 3 via a crank-slider structure, enabling rapid reciprocating motion of the cutting housing 3. This design allows the cutting housing 3 to run smoothly on the guide rails 4, ensuring stability and precision during the cutting process. An inclined chip removal plate 5 is also fixedly connected to the base 1. Located at the bottom of the cutting housing 3, the chip removal plate 5 collects the debris generated during cutting and guides it to a designated position at an inclined angle for easy subsequent cleaning and recycling.

[0022] The cutting box 3 is one of the core components of this utility model. Its top and bottom are both open structures, and it houses the cutting assembly. For example... Figure 2As shown, the cutting assembly includes a cutter head 6 rotatably mounted within a cutting chamber 3, on which multiple cutting blades 7 are evenly distributed. These cutting blades 7 can be switched as needed to handle different cutting tasks or compensate for the effects of wear on individual blades. The cutting assembly also includes two arc-shaped guide plates 8 and two inclined baffles 9. The arc-shaped guide plates 8 are spaced apart along the axial direction of the cutter head 6 and fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sides of the cutting chamber 3, while the inclined baffles 9 are spaced apart along the radial direction of the cutter head 6 and fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sides of the cutting chamber 3. The height of both the arc-shaped guide plates 8 and the inclined baffles 9 is greater than the height of the axis of the cutter head 6, and they fit tightly with the surface of the cutter head 6 to form a cutting chamber. The design of the cutting chamber not only effectively limits the range of debris splashing during the cutting process but also optimizes the cutting path, improving cutting efficiency and accuracy.

[0023] To further improve the cutting effect, main pulleys 10 are provided on both sides of the cutting box 3, and the main pulleys 10 are equipped with ratchet structures 11 with directional rotation function. The main pulleys 10 and the cutter head 6 are connected by a reducer 12. When the cutting box 3 reciprocates along the guide rail 4, the main pulleys 10 convert the linear motion into the slow rotational motion of the cutter head 6 through the ratchet structure 11. This design cleverly utilizes the reciprocating motion characteristics of the cutting box 3, allowing the cutting blades 7 on the cutter head 6 to participate in the cutting task in different positions in turn, thereby extending the blade life and reducing the maintenance frequency. In addition, the slow rotation of the cutter head 6 also helps to reduce the heat accumulation generated by the high-speed operation of the blades, further improving the cutting quality.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, a secondary housing 13 is fixedly connected to the side of the cutting housing 3 away from the drive housing 2. Secondary pulleys 14 are rotatably mounted on both sides of the secondary housing 13, and these pulleys 14 also cooperate with the guide rail frame 4. The secondary housing 13, secondary pulleys 14, main pulley 10, and cutter head 6 are all in the same plane, ensuring the balance and coordination of the overall structure. A rectangular opening 15 is provided at the junction of the cutting housing 3 and the secondary housing 13. A vertically mounted guide rod 16 is fixedly connected inside the secondary housing 13, and a horizontally mounted push rod 17 is slidably connected to the guide rod 16. A scraper 18 is fixedly connected to one end of the push rod 17 facing the rectangular opening 15, and a cleaning brush 19 is mounted on the scraper 18. A double-end arm 20 is connected to the other end of the push rod 17, and pins 21 are fixedly connected to both ends of the double-end arm 20. Turntables 22 are provided on both sides inside the secondary housing 13, and elliptical grooves 23 are provided on the turntables 22 to cooperate with the pins 21. As the cutting box 3 reciprocates, the turntable 22, through the engagement of the elliptical groove 23 and the pin 21, drives the double-end arm 20 to swing, thereby causing the scraper 18 and cleaning brush 19 at one end of the push rod 17 to reciprocate on the surface of the cutter head 6, completing the cleaning work on the surface of the cutter head 6. This design not only removes debris and dirt from the surface of the cutter head 6 in a timely manner, but also avoids cutting quality problems caused by debris accumulation.

[0025] To prevent external dust from entering the interior of the secondary housing 13, an elastic partition 24 is fixedly connected to the push rod 17. The elastic partition 24 is sealed to the inner wall of the secondary housing 13, isolating the internal space of the secondary housing 13 into a dust-free chamber. The double-end arm 20 and the turntable 22 are both located within the dust-free chamber, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the internal environment of the secondary housing 13. In addition, air passages 25 are provided in both the scraper 18 and the push rod 17. Multiple air holes 26 are provided on one side of the cleaning brush 19 on the scraper 18, and an air outlet pipe 27 connected to the air passage 25 is fixedly connected to the double-end arm 20. An air inlet pipe 28 is fixedly installed on the top of the secondary housing 13. Both the air inlet pipe 28 and the air outlet pipe 27 are equipped with one-way valves, and a dust cover 29 is fixedly connected to the top of the air inlet pipe 28. Through the above air path design, high-pressure gas can be sprayed from the air holes 26 when the cleaning brush 19 is working, further enhancing the cleaning effect and preventing debris from re-adhering to the surface of the blade disc 6.

[0026] To further improve cutting accuracy, a housing 30 is fixedly connected to the side of the cutting chamber 3 opposite to the rectangular opening 15. An industrial control camera 31 is installed inside the housing 30 for real-time monitoring of the cutting process. A transparent viewing window 32 is fixedly installed at the junction of the housing 30 and the cutting chamber 3. The industrial control camera 31 acquires image information from inside the cutting chamber through the transparent viewing window 32 and transmits the data to the control system, allowing operators to adjust cutting parameters or monitor the cutting status. Electromagnetic clutches 33 are fixedly connected to both sides of the auxiliary housing 13 to control the transmission connection between the auxiliary pulley 14 and the turntable 22. When it is necessary to pause the cleaning action of the scraper 18, the transmission connection can be disconnected through the electromagnetic clutches 33, thus achieving flexible operation control.

[0027] The cutting chamber 3 has a discharge door 34 on one side that can be closed or opened, used to remove the cut glass product or to place the glass to be cut into the cutting chamber. In actual use, the operator first places the glass to be cut into the cutting chamber, then starts the drive unit 2, which drives the cutting chamber 3 to move rapidly back and forth on the guide rail frame 4 via a crank-slider structure. At the same time, the main pulley 10 converts the linear motion of the cutting chamber 3 into the slow rotational motion of the cutter head 6 through the ratchet structure 11 and the reducer 12, so that the cutting blades 7 take turns participating in the cutting task in different areas. During this process, the industrial control camera 31 monitors the cutting status in the cutting chamber in real time and feeds the data back to the control system so that the operator can adjust the cutting speed or the rotation angle of the cutter head 6 according to the actual situation. After cutting is completed, the operator opens the discharge door 34 to remove the finished product, and at the same time uses the scraper 18 and the cleaning brush 19 to clean the surface of the cutter head 6 in preparation for the next cutting task.

[0028] In summary, this invention, through its unique structural design and efficient mechanical transmission, successfully solves the problems of insufficient cutting precision, rapid blade wear, and high maintenance costs inherent in traditional glass irregular shape cutting equipment. Its core lies in utilizing the reciprocating motion characteristics of the cutting housing 3, combined with the reducer 12 and ratchet structure 11, to achieve slow rotation of the cutter head 6, thereby achieving the effect of blade rotation switching. Furthermore, the scraper 18 and cleaning brush 19 within the auxiliary housing 13 automatically clean the surface of the cutter head 6, further improving the equipment's reliability and service life. This invention is not only applicable to the glass processing field but can also be widely applied to other material processing scenarios requiring high-precision cutting, possessing significant technical advantages and market prospects.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
