Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sheet metal processing technology, and in particular to an intermittent sheet metal cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] Metal sheets are a widely used modern industrial material with diverse physical and chemical properties, capable of meeting various industrial needs. There are many types of metal sheets, including but not limited to aluminum composite panels, aluminum ceiling panels, mirrored stainless steel decorative panels, and aluminum alloy decorative panels. These sheets typically possess fire-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and aesthetically pleasing properties and are widely used in interior and exterior decoration, building structures, automotive, and shipbuilding industries. Laser cutting machines use a laser beam to drill holes in a product. The resulting kerf, created by horizontal movement, is called laser cutting. Lasers utilize the excitation of matter to generate light, which carries a high temperature. Upon contact with the material, this light rapidly melts the surface, creating a hole. The cutting is achieved through precise, point-to-point movement. Therefore, compared to traditional cutting methods, this method produces smaller kerfs, saves more material, and features high precision, fast cutting speed, smooth cuts, and low processing costs, thus gaining widespread application.

[0003] In the prior art, automated loading and unloading systems improve production efficiency through continuous operation. However, improperly arranged intervals during loading can lead to collisions or blockages between materials, affecting normal loading and thus reducing overall production efficiency. To address this technical problem, this application proposes an interval-type plate cutting device. Utility Model Content

[0028] 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 protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] One embodiment of this utility model is provided:

[0030] An intermittent plate cutting device, comprising:

[0031] The storage box 1 for sheet materials has a baffle 9 that slides vertically on the front side of the box 1. A gear 6 is rotatably connected to the bottom left side of the box 1. A connecting rod 7 located on the left side of the box 1 is rotatably connected to the top of a connecting piece 8. The bottom end of the connecting rod 7 is rotatably connected to the outer left side of the gear 6. A limit groove is formed on the upper left side of the box 1. The left end of the baffle 9 is slidably connected inside the limit groove to limit the sliding distance. The left end of the baffle 9 is rotatably connected to the connecting piece 8. The inside of the box 1 is supported by a lifting component to carry the stack of sheet materials. 13. The lifting component consists of a bearing inclined plate 10 and a support spring 11 on the bottom side of the plate stack 13. The top side of the bearing inclined plate 10 is inclined, and the bottom side of the bearing inclined plate 10 is connected to the bottom side of the box 1 through the support spring 11. The top of the inner wall of the box 1 is rotatably connected to a limiting roller 12. The top side of the plate stack 13 abuts against the limiting roller 12 to prevent the plate at the top side of the plate stack 13 from popping out due to the action of the support spring 11. At the same time, the rotation reduces the friction between the plate and the limiting roller 12 when the plate slides down.

[0032] Specifically, the plate stack 13 is placed on the bearing inclined plate 10, so that the plate stack 13 is placed at an angle. This allows the plates in the plate stack 13 to slide down the inclined surface of the bottom plate. Under the obstruction of the baffle 9, the plates will not slide down randomly. With the rotation of the gear 6, the connecting rod 7 connected to the outer periphery of the gear 6 will drive the connecting rod 7 to pull and push the connecting piece 8 connected to the baffle 9 at the top back and forth after the gear 6 rotates once. This causes the baffle 9 to pull down and the top plate to slide down. Because the baffle 9 is restricted by the limiting groove, the displacement of the baffle 9 takes priority and only allows the top plate to slide down. After the top plate slides out, the normally compressed support spring 11 pushes the bearing inclined plate 10 and the plate stack 13 upward to bring the top plate to the sliding position, waiting for the next sliding out loading.

[0033] The frame 2, which serves as the cutting point for the sheet metal, has a laser cutting head 15 for cutting sheet metal installed at its top via an XYZ platform. A shelf 16 is rotatably connected to the lower inner wall of the frame 2. The top drive ends of two cylinders 17 installed at the bottom front end of the inner wall of the frame 2 are fixedly connected to abutment joints 18. The top side of the abutment joints 18 abuts against the bottom side of the shelf 16. A support frame 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom middle of the inner wall of the frame 2 to support the shelf 16.

[0034] Specifically, the laser cutting head 15 moves in conjunction with the XYZ platform to cut the material on the shelf 16. After the cutting is completed, the shelf 16 is tilted upwards at the rear end under the force of the abutment joint 18 at the drive end of the cylinder 17. The material slides down the inclined surface of the shelf 16, thereby unloading the cut material.

[0035] Two support plates 3 are fixed on the same side of the box 1 and the frame 2. A positioning side plate 14 is fixedly connected to the top side of the support plate 3. The conveyor belt consists of multiple rollers 4 on the same side of the two support plates 3 and a track sleeve on the outer wall of the multiple rollers 4. The same side of the two support plates 3 conveys the plate to the top side of the shelf 16 through the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is driven by the motor 20. A foot is installed on the bottom side of the motor 20 on the left side of the last roller 4. The gear 6 is located on the rear side of the half gear 5 fixedly connected to the left side of the last roller 4.

[0036] Specifically, the track is made of multiple slats spliced ​​together to transport metal sheets, preventing the metal sheets from damaging the track and thus extending the service life of the conveyor belt. When the motor 20 drives the roller 4 to rotate, the roller 4 drives the track to move and simultaneously drives the half gear 5 to rotate, causing the half gear 5 to intermittently mesh with the rear gear 6. This prevents the gear 6 from rotating half a turn at once under the meshing transmission of the half gear 5, causing the structure connected to the gear 6, including the connecting rod 7, to pause during operation. This causes each plate to slide out of the housing 1 with a gap, preventing collisions between the plates. The plates will slide onto the track along the positioning side plates 14 on both sides, and then be delivered onto the placement plate 16 by the displaced track. The spacing of the positioning side plates 14 corresponds to the width of the plates to prevent the plates from shifting.

[0037] Working principle: When cutting metal sheets, motor 20 drives roller 4 to rotate, roller 4 drives the transmission track to move, and at the same time drives half gear 5 to rotate, so that half gear 5 intermittently meshes with the rear gear 6, so that gear 6 cannot rotate half a turn at a time under the meshing transmission of half gear 5. The transmitted gear 6 drives the connecting rod 7 to pull the connecting piece 8 connected to the baffle 9 at the top downward. As the baffle 9 is pulled down, the topmost sheet slides down. After the topmost sheet slides out, the normally compressed support spring 11 returns to its original position and pushes the bearing inclined plate 10 along with the sheet stack 13 towards the... The material is lifted upwards. At this time, the half gear 5 re-engages, causing the gear 6 to drive the connecting rod 7 to push the connecting piece 8 connected to the baffle 9 at the top upwards, stopping the feeding. The plate will slide along the positioning side plates 14 on both sides onto the track, and then be delivered onto the placement plate 16 by the displaced track. The laser cutting head 15, in conjunction with the XYZ platform, moves to cut the plate material on the placement plate 16. After the cutting is completed, the rear end of the placement plate 16 is lifted and tilted under the abutment force of the drive end abutment joint 18 of the cylinder 17, and the material slides down the inclined plane onto the placement plate 16, thus unloading the cut plate.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only 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, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
