Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of aluminum ingot processing equipment, and in particular relates to a continuous laser marking device for aluminum ingots. Background Technology

[0002] A patent entitled "An Aluminum Ingot Marking Device" is disclosed in the existing Chinese patent database, with application number CN202221267637.3 and application date of 2022-05-24. This utility model relates to the field of aluminum ingot production technology. The aluminum ingot processing part is conveyed to a base by a conveyor belt. The processing area of ​​the aluminum ingot corresponds to a laser, facilitating laser marking. After marking, an electric push rod drives a rotating push plate to rotate relative to the receiving groove. The inner side of the rotating push plate contacts the surface of the aluminum ingot. The rotating push plate, through its rotation, assists in pushing the aluminum ingot away from the base surface, allowing it to reach a position on a second conveyor belt, thus improving marking efficiency. A clamping cylinder pushes a pressure plate through the feeding groove and into contact with the top surface of the base, causing a buffer pad to move synchronously. The pressure plate and support pads clamp and fix the aluminum ingot, preventing shaking during marking and improving marking quality.

[0003] In existing technologies, when marking the outer circular surface of cylindrical aluminum ingots, the circular shape of the ingots makes them prone to shaking during the marking process. This necessitates repeated fixing of each ingot during the marking process, which affects the marking efficiency. Therefore, this paper aims to propose a continuous laser marking device for aluminum ingots. By fixing the cylindrical aluminum ingots in a V-groove and removing them from the V-groove after marking, the next cylindrical aluminum ingot can simultaneously enter the marking area, greatly improving the marking speed and efficiency.

Several V-shaped grooves 201 for placing aluminum ingots are opened at the upper end. The V-shaped grooves 201 protrude from the upper end of the side plate 101. Drive mechanism: Located on the outer surface of side plate 101, it includes a drive wheel 3 and two driven wheels 4 arranged in parallel and spaced apart. The drive wheel 3 and the two driven wheels 4 are connected by belt drive. A tension wheel 5 is provided between the drive wheel 3 and each driven wheel 4. The two driven wheels 4 rotate in the same direction. Feeding mechanism: includes a rotating part 6 located inside the side plate 101. The rotating part 6 is in the shape of an inverted T. The middle part of the vertical section of the rotating part 6 is connected to the corresponding driven wheel 4 through a shaft. A pusher plate 7 is provided inside the rotating part 6. The structure of the pusher plate 7 is the same as that of the support plate 2. A connecting ear plate 8 is integrally provided at the lower end of the pusher plate 7. Each connecting ear plate 8 is hinged to the right end of the horizontal section of the corresponding rotating part 6. The coding mechanism includes a fixing frame 9 fixed on the right side plate 101 of the support plate 2. A laser 10 for coding is installed on the fixing frame 9. The laser 10 is positioned directly opposite the V-groove 201 on the far right of the support plate 2.

[0017] A receiving mechanism is installed inside the side plate 101 on the right side of the fixed frame 9. The receiving mechanism includes a receiving plate 11 fixedly connected to the inner surface of the side plate 101. The receiving plate 11 is inclined downward, and a limiting protrusion 1101 is integrally provided at the upper free end of the receiving plate 11. The receiving mechanism facilitates the centralized discharge of the coded aluminum ingots, making it convenient for operators to pick up and place them uniformly.

[0018] An adjusting plate 12 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the side plate 101 located directly above the drive pulley 3. A first connecting block 13 is integrally provided on the adjusting plate 12. A second connecting block 14 is integrally welded to the outer surface of the side plate 101 located directly above the first connecting block 13. A locking bolt 15 is inserted between the first connecting block 13 and the second connecting block 14. A locking nut 16 is screwed onto the free end of the locking bolt 15. The locking nut 16 abuts against the lower surface of the first connecting block 13. A vertical waist-shaped groove 17 is formed on the edge of the adjusting plate 12. A positioning bolt is inserted into the waist-shaped groove 17. The tension wheel 5 is installed on the adjusting plate 12. The vertically adjustable setting of the adjusting plate 12 can change the position of the tension wheel 5, which is convenient to adjust the position of the tension wheel 5 according to the tightness of the belt, so as to always maintain the tension of the belt.

[0019] In implementation of this utility model, the operator places the cylindrical aluminum ingot into the corresponding V-grooves 201 of the two support plates 2 from the left side of the frame 1, controls the feeding mechanism to work, and drives the drive wheel 3 to rotate. Under the transmission connection of the belt, the two driven wheels 4 rotate clockwise at the same time as the drive wheel 3. The driven wheels 4 drive the rotating parts 6 to rotate clockwise. Since the right ends of the two rotating parts 6 are hinged to the lower part of the push plate 7, the push plate 7 is always in a horizontal state during the rotation of the two rotating parts 6. During the rotation of the push plate 7 with the two rotating parts 6, the push plate 7, through the V-grooves 201 on its own upper part, pushes the aluminum ingot located in front of the support plate 2. The cylindrical aluminum ingot in the V-groove 201 moves to the next V-groove 201 of the support plate 2, and this action is repeated to complete the progressive movement of the cylindrical aluminum ingot. After the laser 10 marks the cylindrical aluminum ingot in the V-groove 201 directly below, it is moved to the receiving plate 11 by the pusher plate 7. The cylindrical aluminum ingot slides down to the limiting protrusion 1101 of the receiving plate 11 due to its own gravity, which is convenient for the operator to collect and sort. During the swing of the pusher plate 7, the highest point of the pusher plate 7 is always lower than the laser 10. At the same time, a notch is opened in the vertical section of the fixing frame 9 to avoid interference with the pusher plate 7.
