[0019] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1-5 A feeding structure for pipe processing includes a feeder 1. The feeder 1 has a chuck 2 on its outer side for clamping square tube profiles 10. The chuck 2 has a drive box 3 on its outer side. The drive box 3 includes two symmetrically arranged swing arms 32. The drive box 3 is connected to a sliding seat 6 through a crossbeam. The sliding seat 6 has a laser cutting cabinet 9. When the sliding seat 6 moves, the drive box 3 and the laser cutting cabinet 9 move accordingly. The bottom of the laser cutting cabinet 9 has a cutting head 91. The two swing arms 32 are used to clamp the cut square tube profiles 10.

[0021] When in use, the square tube profile 10 extends out of the chuck 2, and the laser cutting cabinet 9 performs laser cutting on the square tube profile through the cutting head 91 at the bottom, and the cut square tube profile falls down; then the chuck 2 on the feeder 1 opens, and after opening, the drive box 3 runs, causing the two swing arms 32 to rotate and clamp the square tube profile 10. As the sliding seat 6 moves, the square tube profile 10 can be pulled out to a certain length; after being pulled out, the chuck 2 tightens, so that the laser cutting cabinet 9 can cut the square tube profile 10 below again, and so on.

[0022] In other words, the drive box 3 clamps the square tube profile 1 through the swing arm 32. After clamping, the movement of the sliding seat 6 can pull out the square tube profile 10, thereby realizing the material feeding for easy laser cutting.

[0023] In this embodiment, the square tube profile 10 is an aluminum profile.

[0024] In addition, the laser cutting cabinet 9 and the cutting head 91 are existing laser cutting equipment, which will not be described in detail here; in the actual production of this application, Huilifeng laser cutting equipment is selected.

[0025] Specifically, the drive box 3 has a cylinder 4 on the side away from the chuck 2 and a rotating shaft 31 at the corner on the other side. The swing arm 32 is fixed to the bottom of the rotating shaft 31. The cylinder 4 drives the rotating shaft 31 to rotate through the internal connecting rod structure. When the rotating shaft 31 rotates, the swing arm 32 rotates accordingly, thereby clamping the square tube profile 10 and facilitating its extraction and feeding.

[0026] The connecting rod structure includes a telescopic support rod 5, and a telescopic block 42 is provided at the end of the output shaft 41 of the cylinder 4. One end of the telescopic support rod 5 is hinged to the telescopic block 42, and the other end is provided with a collar 51. The collar 51 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 31 and fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 31. When the telescopic block 42 is translated by the cylinder 4, it drives the bottom swing arm 32 to rotate.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 6 When the output shaft 41 of the cylinder 4 extends, the telescopic block 42 moves toward the chuck 2. At this time, the telescopic support rod 5 retracts and becomes shorter, and drives the rotating shaft 31 to rotate clockwise through the end collar 51. After the rotating shaft 31 rotates clockwise, the swing arm 32 also moves and rotates outward, causing it to disengage from the square tube profile 10. Similarly, when the output shaft 41 retracts, the length of the telescopic support rod 5 increases, and the rotating shaft 31 rotates counterclockwise, thereby causing the two swing arms 32 to come closer together and clamp the square tube profile 10.

[0028] To increase the clamping tightness, a buckle 33 is provided at the end of the swing arm 32, and two buckles 33 are arranged opposite each other; wherein the opposite side of the buckle 33 is provided with a groove, and the two sides of the square tube profile 10 are inserted into the groove after clamping.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment, the sliding seat 6 is slidably moved by the first guide rail 61 at the bottom. A control box 7 is provided above the sliding seat 6. The surface of the sliding seat 6 is provided with a second guide rail 62 that cooperates with the bottom of the control box 7. The misalignment and translation of the sliding seat 6 and the control box 7 can adjust the position of the laser cutting cabinet 9.

[0030] The control box 7 is used to control the laser cutting, the translation of the sliding seat 6, and the translation of the control box 7 itself, so as to meet the cutting requirements of the square tube profile 10.

[0031] In addition, the control box 7 and the laser cutting cabinet 9 are connected by a connecting beam 8, which can drive the laser cutting cabinet 9 to rise and fall through the drive mechanism inside the control box 7.

[0032] The drive mechanism inside the control box 7 can be a cylinder, an electric push rod, a motor screw, etc., or other existing lifting mechanisms, as long as they can meet the lifting requirements of the laser cutting cabinet 9.

[0033] Based on the above embodiments, the chuck 2, cylinder 4, control cabinet 7, laser cutting cabinet 9, etc. are all programmed into PLC control programs, with a high degree of automation, and can autonomously realize the feeding and cutting of square tube profile 10.

[0034] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
