Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fixture technology, and in particular to an adjustable fixture for a laser cutting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Before mass production of new die-cut parts, to reduce die costs, a small number of samples are typically made using a laser cutting machine and delivered to the customer for structural confirmation. Additionally, for products with expensive raw materials and small sample sizes, laser cutting machines are generally used to complete the product manufacturing process to avoid material waste during die-cutting machine setup.

[0003] Some products have complex structures that require manual alignment of materials during laser cutting. The existing alignment method is as follows: First, all material layers except the middle layer are aligned → the laser cutting machine performs the first cut → one end of the top layers is fixed with tape and the other end is lifted → the middle layer is removed (waste material is removed) → the middle layer is attached → the lifted top layers are put back on and the remaining cutting steps are performed. When the top layers are lifted, the tape is prone to displacement and wrinkling; during the re-alignment process, manual alignment is prone to deviation. This not only reduces product yield and affects production efficiency but also leads to insufficient material utilization and increased production costs.

[0004] Therefore, the industry urgently needs a multi-layer material bonding fixture that can achieve rapid, precise, and repeatable positioning during laser cutting to improve processing accuracy and material utilization, reduce reliance on operator skills, and thus comprehensively improve production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable fixture for laser cutting machines, which is used for material alignment during sheet processing. The adjustable fixture prevents material strip displacement and wrinkling when the upper layer is lifted, reduces deviations caused by manual alignment during re-alignment, and improves product yield and production efficiency.

[0006] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] An adjustable fixture for a laser cutting machine includes an upper base, a sliding plate, and a lower base. The lower base is fixed below the upper base, and the bottom end of the lower base is slidably connected to the laser cutting machine. The sliding plate is slidably disposed above the upper base.

[0008] The slide plate includes a slide plate body and positioning posts. The positioning posts are located above the slide plate body. Multiple positioning posts are used to fix the material strip to be processed. The laser cutting machine is used to cut the fixed material strip.

[0009] In one embodiment of this utility model, the lower base and the upper base are fixedly connected by screws.

[0010] In one embodiment of this utility model, a sliding groove is provided above the upper base, and the sliding plate is slidably connected to the sliding groove.

[0011] In one embodiment of this utility model, a handle is provided on the slide groove, one end of which is fixedly connected to the slide plate, and the handle is used to push the slide plate to move back and forth along the slide groove.

[0012] In one embodiment of this utility model, the handle includes a handle body, the upper half of which is located above the slide groove, the lower half of which is located in the slide groove, and the handle body is fixedly connected to the end of the slide body away from the positioning post.

[0013] In one embodiment of this utility model, the handle further includes a spring piece, which is fixed to one side of the handle body.

[0014] In one embodiment of this utility model, a cover is provided at one end of the slide groove, and the cover is used to prevent the handle from accidentally slipping out of the slide groove during the movement of the handle.

[0015] In one embodiment of this utility model, the laser cutting machine includes a laser cutting machine body and a processing platform. The laser cutting machine body is disposed above the processing platform, and a plurality of adjustable fixtures are slidably disposed on the left and right sides of the processing platform. A strip of material to be processed is fixed between the plurality of adjustable fixtures. The laser cutting machine body is used to cut the strip of material to be processed on the processing platform.

[0016] In one embodiment of this utility model, the processing platform has several grooves at its left and right ends.

[0017] In one embodiment of this utility model, the adjustable fixture is slidably connected to the groove via a lower base.

[0018] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0019] This invention relates to a fixture designed based on the grooves and strip positioning sliders on both sides of the processing platform of a laser cutting machine. In use, the original strip positioning sliders on both sides of the laser cutting machine's processing platform are removed, and the adjustable fixture provided by this invention is installed in the grooves on both sides of the processing platform. The handle is pushed to extend the sliding plate along the groove to the upper base a certain distance, ensuring that the spacing between the positioning posts on both sides of the fixture meets the required length of the strip to be processed. Then, the first layer of the strip to be bonded is placed on the processing platform along the positioning posts on both sides. After the laser cutting machine completes the first cut, the second layer of strip is bonded to the first layer along the positioning posts on both sides, and the laser cutting machine is operated for the next cut. The above steps are repeated until all strip layers are bonded and processed, thus completing the processing of the product to be bonded.

[0020] Depending on the width of the material strip, the number of adjustable fixtures provided by this utility model installed on both sides of the processing platform can be adjusted to make the material strip positioning more accurate.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. The adjustable fixture provided by this utility model can be installed on both sides of the laser cutting machine processing platform at any time to avoid displacement and wrinkling of the material strip when the upper material is lifted, reduce deviation caused by manual alignment during the re-lamination process, and improve the product yield and production efficiency.

[0023] 2. The adjustable fixture provided by this utility model can be adjusted within a certain range to adapt to the actual length of the material strip, so as to make full use of the material and reduce production costs. Attached Figure Description
