Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plasma electrode technology, specifically to a quick-replaceable plasma electrode. Background Technology

[0002] Plasma cutting guns are a processing method used for metal cutting. They melt metal using a high-temperature plasma arc and use a high-speed plasma stream to expel the molten material to form a cutting kerf. They are mainly used in the processing of metal sheets such as stainless steel, carbon steel, and aluminum. The plasma electrodes inside the cutting gun have a limited lifespan due to the high-temperature operation, making them common consumables that need to be replaced frequently.

[0003] Traditional plasma electrode head replacements require the cutting torch to be cooled before replacement, and often necessitate the use of a special handle. Adjustable wrenches or pliers cannot be used for direct tightening. Furthermore, the small size of specialized wrenches makes subsequent electrode installation difficult if lost. Therefore, we propose a quick-replacement plasma electrode to address these issues. Utility Model Content

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.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4An embodiment of this utility model is provided: a quick-replaceable plasma electrode, including a gun head seat 2, a gun rod 3 and an operating handle 5. The gun head seat 2 is connected to the top of the gun rod 3. A gun head thread groove 14 is provided on the left side of the gun head seat 2. A plasma electrode head 13 is inserted into the left side of the gun head seat 2. A cutting nozzle 12 is sleeved on the outside of the plasma electrode head 13. An adjustment slot 15 is opened on the outside of the cutting nozzle 12. A fixing cover 1 is sleeved on the outside of the adjustment slot 15. An adjustment ridge block 16 is installed on the outside of the fixing cover 1.

[0023] The cutting nozzle 12 has adjustment slots 15 at its front and rear ends. Four sets of adjustment blocks 16 are provided on the outside of the fixed cover 1. The plasma electrode head 13 is installed between the gun head seat 2 and the cutting nozzle 12. The cutting nozzle 12 is driven to engage with the inner thread of the gun head seat 2 through the adjustment slots 15. The fixed cover 1 is sleeved on the outside of the cutting nozzle 12. The adjustment blocks 16 drive the fixed cover 1 to engage with the gun head thread groove 14 on the left side of the gun head seat 2.

[0024] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, by setting up a structure that facilitates replacement, when in use, the plasma electrode head 13 is inserted into the middle of the left side of the nozzle holder 2, and the cutting tip 12 is inserted into the left side of the nozzle holder 2 to fit the plasma electrode head 13 inside the nozzle holder 2. A wrench is used to make the cutting tip 12 engage with the internal threads of the nozzle holder 2. If a special wrench is not available, an adjustment slot 15 can be opened on the outside of the cutting tip 12 to make the cutting tip 12 engage inside the left side of the nozzle holder 2. Finally, the fixing cover 1 is fitted onto the external nozzle thread groove 14 of the cutting tip 12, so that the adjusting block 16 carries the fixing cover 1 and engages with the nozzle thread groove 14. The fixing cover 1 is fixed on the left side of the nozzle holder 2 to fix the cutting tip 12 and the plasma electrode head 13 inside the cutting tip 12 for a second fixation, thereby realizing the function of easy replacement.

[0025] The gun barrel 3 is fitted with an auxiliary sleeve 4, the auxiliary sleeve 4 is provided with a heat insulation ring block 10 inside, a magnetic block 9 is embedded on the left side of the auxiliary sleeve 4, and an adjusting screw 11 is installed at the bottom of the auxiliary sleeve 4.

[0026] The auxiliary sleeve 4, carrying the internal heat insulation ring 10, is fitted onto the outside of the gun barrel 3. The adjusting screw 11 engages with the bottom of the auxiliary sleeve 4 to fix the auxiliary sleeve 4 to the outside of the gun barrel 3. The auxiliary sleeve 4 is magnetically attracted to the metal through the externally embedded magnetic block 9.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, by setting an adjustment limit structure, when in use, the auxiliary sleeve 4 is fitted onto the outside of the gun barrel 3. The heat insulation ring block 10 inside the auxiliary sleeve 4 isolates the force generated inside the gun barrel 3, preventing the temperature from being transferred to the auxiliary sleeve 4 and preventing the magnetic block 9 embedded on the outside of the auxiliary sleeve 4 from being demagnetized. At the same time, the magnetic block 9 on the outside of the auxiliary sleeve 4 can be magnetically attracted to some metals, which facilitates the fixation and limitation of the gun barrel 3. Loosening the adjustment screw 11 at the bottom of the auxiliary sleeve 4 allows the auxiliary sleeve 4 to slide and adjust to the corresponding position outside the gun barrel 3, thereby realizing the adjustment and limit function.

[0028] The bottom of the gun barrel 3 is connected to the operating grip 5. The left side of the operating grip 5 is provided with the start button 7. The start button 7 is equipped with a stop block 6. The bottom of the operating grip 5 is connected to the lower connecting seat 19.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, by setting up a quick-connect structure, when in use, after passing the gun wire through the lower protective sleeve 8, the adjusting sleeve 18 on the outside of the lower connecting seat 19 is flipped open, and the gun wire is connected to the inner connecting tube 20 inside the lower connecting seat 19. Then, the adjusting sleeve 18 and the lower connecting seat 19 are closed, and the lower protective sleeve 8 and the connecting thread groove 17 on the outside of the lower connecting seat 19 are threaded together, so that the gun wire can be quickly connected to the operating handle 5. This facilitates quick installation and removal of the gun wire during use, thus realizing the quick-connect function.

[0031] Working Principle: In use, the plasma electrode head 13 is inserted into the middle left side of the nozzle holder 2. The cutting tip 12 is then inserted into the left side of the nozzle holder 2 to fit the plasma electrode head 13 inside. If a special wrench is unavailable, a hex wrench can be used to create an adjustment slot 15 on the outside of the cutting tip 12, allowing the cutting tip 12 to engage inside the left side of the nozzle holder 2. Finally, the fixing cover 1 is fitted onto the external nozzle thread groove 14 of the cutting tip 12, allowing the adjusting block 16 to engage the fixing cover 1 with the nozzle thread groove 14, thus fixing the fixing cover 1 to the left side of the nozzle holder 2 for secondary fixation of the cutting tip 12 and the plasma electrode head 13 inside. Afterwards, the lower protective cover 8 is removed from the lower connecting seat 19, and the gun wire is passed through the lower protective cover. After the protective sleeve 8 is installed, flip open the adjusting sleeve 18 on the outside of the lower connecting seat 19. After connecting the gun wire to the inner connecting tube 20 inside the lower connecting seat 19, close the adjusting sleeve 18 and the lower connecting seat 19. Then, thread the connecting thread groove 17 on the outside of the lower protective sleeve 8 and the lower connecting seat 19 to engage. Quickly connect the gun wire to the operating handle 5. Loosen the adjusting screw 11 at the bottom of the auxiliary sleeve 4 to slide the auxiliary sleeve 4 to adjust its position outside the gun barrel 3. The heat insulation ring 10 inside the auxiliary sleeve 4 will isolate the force generated inside the gun barrel 3, preventing the temperature from being transferred to the auxiliary sleeve 4 and preventing the magnetic block 9 embedded on the outside of the auxiliary sleeve 4 from being demagnetized. At the same time, the magnetic block 9 on the outside of the auxiliary sleeve 4 can be magnetically attracted to some metals, which is convenient for fixing and limiting the gun barrel 3.
