Detailed Description
The invention is further described below with reference to the embodiments shown in all the drawings:
example 1
1-6, An auxiliary device for use with reciprocating and curved saws is innovative in that the device is specially adapted to fit the linear drive shaft of a cutting tool and complete the installation. Once the device is installed, the device can automatically regulate and control the cutting progress while sawing the workpiece, and is particularly suitable for cutting metal parts. In addition, the device can be easily switched to a manual mode, so that the flexibility, safety and cutting accuracy of operation are improved.
The auxiliary device mainly comprises the following components:
A linear drive shaft 1 is mounted in a reciprocating conversion mechanism 001 of a reciprocating saw or a jigsaw, and a saw blade 002 is mounted at a free end.
The baffle frame 2 is detachably and fixedly connected with the reciprocating motion conversion mechanism 001 and extends to one side of the saw blade 002 from the connecting position.
The device also comprises a feed mechanism 3 comprising a power reference assembly 31, a swing assembly 32, etc. The power reference assembly 31 is in power connection with the linear drive shaft 1 and contains a curvilinear recess 311, a slideway 312 and a drive pin 313 inside the linear drive shaft 1. The upper end of the driving pin 313 is provided with a circular arc-shaped protrusion 314 which is matched with the slideway 312.
The swing assembly 32 includes a fork 321 detachably and fixedly connected to the driving pin 313, a swing arm 322 hinged to the other end of the fork 321, and a pivoting member 323 rotatably and fixedly attached to the saw housing.
The device is further provided with a feed pawl 33, which pawl 33 is hinged to the pivot member 323, in particular in a position above the pivot point of the pivot member, a ratchet wheel 35, which ratchet wheel 35 is rotatable inside the shutter frame 2 by means of a mounting shaft 34 and cooperates with the feed pawl 33, and a large gear 36, a small gear 37 and a mounting seat 38, which are coaxially connected to the ratchet wheel 35 and are fixed to the shutter frame 2. In addition, the device is provided with a toothed bar 39 slidably mounted in the mounting 38, at least one end of the toothed bar 39 being fixedly connected to the clamp riser 391.
The device is also equipped with a fixed jaw 392 perpendicular to the saw blade 002 and fixed to the clamp riser 391, and a movable jaw 393 of adjustable distance and lockable. The design and the installation of the components are very accurate, and the stability and the accuracy of the operation process are ensured. In particular, the cooperation of the clamp plate 391 with the fixed clamping piece 392 and the adjustable movable clamping piece 393 ensures a stable position of the workpiece during the cutting process.
The device works on the principle that the motion of the linear driving shaft 1 drives the transmission pin 313 to move up and down, so that the swing arm 322 swings, and the feeding pawl 33 is pushed and pulled, and finally the ratchet wheel 35 rotates.
In the actual cutting process, after the workpiece is fixed by the two clamping plates, the linear driving shaft 1 starts to move to drive the saw blade 002 to cut. Likewise, the driving pin 313 is also driven by the linear driving shaft 1 to move up and down, and this motion is transmitted through the swing assembly 32, thereby driving the ratchet 35 to rotate. Rotation of the ratchet 35 rotates the large gear 36, which in turn drives rotation of the small gear 37. The rotation of the pinion 37 further pushes the toothed bar 39 upward, and finally, the toothed bar 39 drives the fixed clamping piece 392 and the movable clamping piece 393 to push the workpiece to the direction of the saw blade 002 to be cut, and finally, the whole cutting process is completed.
In the whole cutting process, an operator only needs to operate the reciprocating saw or the curved saw, so that the work load is reduced, and meanwhile, the stable feeding amount also greatly improves the cutting effect.
In summary, the auxiliary device of the reciprocating saw realizes the improvement of the working efficiency, the reduction of the labor intensity of operators and the improvement of the cutting quality through the structural optimization and the design of the feeding mechanism. The whole cutting process is clear, simple, visual and easy to understand, easy to operate and has wide application prospect and market potential.
The components of the device may be changed or adjusted according to particular needs and use scenarios. For example, critical parts of the device, such as the drive pin 313, swing arm 322, ratchet 35, etc., may be specifically designed based on the cutting requirements, loading conditions, and the material to be cut. The drive pin 313 and swing arm 322 may be made of different materials to meet various operating environments and durability requirements. At the same time, the design of the ratchet 35 can be adjusted according to the specific feed speed and force requirements.
There are also many optimisation possibilities for the linear drive shaft 1. For example, a plurality of different types of linear drive shafts may be designed to accommodate various types of saw blades and cutting tasks. Furthermore, the linear drive shaft 1 may also be designed to be removable and replaceable for ease of maintenance and replacement.
The design and optimization of these replaceable components can increase the flexibility of the device, accommodate various cutting requirements, and ensure the stability and accuracy of the cutting process.
To further enhance the stability of the work piece, the design of the large gear 36, the small gear 37, the mounting seat 38 and the toothed bar 39 all comprise two sets of elements, which are symmetrically distributed with respect to the saw blade 002. Through this symmetrical design, the clamp vertical plate 391, the fixed clamping piece 392, the movable clamping piece 393 and the two mounting seats 38 can be integrated into a whole, so that the stability of the device is effectively improved.
In the baffle frame 2, two downwardly extending support lugs 21 and one riser 22 are contained. Both support lugs 21 are provided with coaxial through holes for rotatably supporting the mounting shaft 34. In order to enhance the feeding stability, an upper slider 23 fixedly connected by a bolt is installed at the upper end of the vertical plate 22. At both ends of the upper slider 23, a through hole for the toothed bar 39 to slide tightly is designed. Thus, each rack bar 39 can be stably supported while being moved.
The ratchet wheel is non-linear in its feed, considering that it is intermittent. The effect of such non-linear feeding is less when cutting soft materials such as wood, plastic, etc. But it is desirable to provide a continuous feed when cutting metal. Thus, the feed motion can be made as nearly linear as possible by sizing and tooth count of ratchet 35 and rationalizing with swing assembly 32 and power reference assembly 31.
In some specific cutting scenarios, such as small part cutting, if the saw body can be stabilized, the operator can keep a certain distance during the cutting process, which can better ensure safety. Thus, we add an extension 24 to the baffle frame 2, which extension is preferably mounted in a detachable attachment to the reciprocation conversion mechanism 001. The purpose of fixing the saw body can be conveniently achieved by arranging the stabilizing piece which is connected with the expansion piece outside.
To switch between automatic and manual feeding, a special swing arm 322 is designed, and an opening and a shaft which can extend into the opening are arranged in the middle of the swing arm 322, and a certain distance is kept between the opening and the shaft. One end of the swing arm is provided with a rotatable switching nut 324 and the other end is threaded to match the nut. The switch nut 324 is partially exposed outside the saw housing for ease of manual operation. When the swing arms at both ends are connected by the switching nut 324, the swing arms resume the rigid connection, resuming the effective transmission.
We have also added a clutch assembly 4 to the feed mechanism 3 to switch between automatic and manual feed modes. The clutch assembly 4 comprises a spline shaft with a hollow structure, wherein the installation shaft 34 is replaced by the spline shaft, a ratchet wheel 35 which is fixedly connected with the installation shaft 34 is changed into a rotatable connection, and a driving gear ring 41 which is fixedly connected with the ratchet wheel 35 is additionally arranged on the side of the ratchet wheel. The clutch assembly 4 further includes a splined sleeve 42 having a sliding fit relationship with the outer surface of the splined shaft and having external threads, a driven gear ring 43 threadably coupled to the splined sleeve 42, and a biasing spring 44 disposed between the driven gear ring 43 and the adjacent side bull gear 36 and disposed about the splined shaft. In a normal state, the pushing spring 44 pushes the driven gear ring 43 to a position meshed with the driving gear ring 41, so that the rotation of the ratchet 35 is transmitted to the spline shaft through the driving gear ring 41 and the driven gear ring 43, and related transmission parts such as a large gear are driven to complete automatic feeding.
To facilitate the separation and connection of the driven gear ring 43, a hole 45 corresponding to the spline sleeve 42 is designed on the spline shaft, and threads are added to the spline shaft opening on one side of the push spring 44. At this threaded location we install a threaded unlocking member 46. The unlocking member 46 includes an exposed rotating handle 461 and an extension rod 462 having one end projecting into the spline shaft and the other end rotatably connected to the rotating handle 461. The end of the extension rod 462 is provided with a radially protruding catch 463, while the inner side of the splined sleeve 42 is provided with a catch groove cooperating with the catch 463. When the locking portion 463 is inserted into the locking groove of the spline sleeve 42 through the hole 45, the extension rod 462 is moved by rotating the handle 461 according to the screw direction, so as to drive the spline sleeve 42 and the driven gear ring 43 mounted thereon to be separated from or connected with the driving gear ring 41.
The separation operation of the clutch assembly 4 has two purposes, namely, firstly, when soft materials such as wood are cut, the requirement on the stability of the feeding amount is not great, and the workpiece is fixed outside, in this case, the mounting shaft 34 is not limited by the ratchet wheel 35, two clamping plates can normally clamp the workpiece, an operator can manually press down the machine body for cutting, and secondly, after the cutting is finished, the saw blade 002 needs to be reset, in order to better complete the reset operation, a reset spring 5 is additionally arranged between the upper sliding seat 23 and the clamp vertical plate 391, and the reset spring 5 is sleeved on the periphery of the toothed bar 39.
To improve the clamping effect, we add padding 7 on the side of the moving jaw 393 facing the fixed jaw 392. This cushion 7 provides additional support, better protects the workpiece and improves the stability of the clamping.
The cooperation of the ratchet 35 and the feed pawl 33 is a one-way rotary drive, the pawl having a non-return function, and to enhance the non-return effect we add a reverse rotation preventing anti-rotation pawl 6 hinged to the pivot 323 in a relatively downward position. This design allows for more efficient control of the movement of the device when desired.
The moving manner of the moving clamping piece 393 can be any form in the prior art, for example, the moving clamping piece 393 is slidably positioned on the clamp vertical plate 391 through a rail, and then a bolt-nut structure is used for pushing a pushing block under the contact moving clamping piece 393 to realize the displacement of the moving clamping piece, so as to achieve the purpose of clamping a workpiece. The bolt and nut are matched with each other to have a locking function, and the bolt and nut can also be of a component structure pushed by the connecting rod, and the dead point of the connecting rod is used as a locking structure, such as angle locking, cross locking, three-fork locking and the like. In this embodiment, a screw adjusting and locking manner is adopted, specifically including designing two toothed bars 39 to be hollow, then setting a guiding long bar 394 extending into the two toothed bars 39 in the moving clamping piece 393, setting a fixing nut 395 on the back of the clamp vertical plate 391, setting an adjusting nut 396 on the same side of the moving clamping piece 393, and then adjusting the distance between the moving clamping piece 393 and the fixing clamping piece 392 by using an adjusting screw 397 in cooperation. Such a design allows for a more accurate displacement of the moving jaw 393, thereby improving the clamping stability and cutting effectiveness of the workpiece.
The following is one embodiment created according to the foregoing cutting procedure:
It is envisaged that an operator is preparing for a length of aluminium alloy profile cutting work. The operator first checks whether the device is ready to confirm that the large gear 36, small gear 37, mount 38, and rack 39 are all properly installed and adjusted. Next, he places an aluminum alloy profile on the device, which is his work piece, and then moderately adjusts the clamp riser 391 and the fixed clip 392 to accommodate the size and shape of the work piece.
The operator then begins to grip the workpiece. He uses the clamp riser 391, the stationary clip 392, the moving clip 393, and the two mounts 38 to stably secure the workpiece. He rotates adjustment screw 397 to move moving jaw 393 along clamp riser 391 to fit the size of the workpiece. He also uses the cushion 7 to cling to the workpiece surface, providing additional support for the clamping stability.
The operator sets the feed mechanism according to the cutting requirements. Because the aluminum alloy is hard, he chooses to feed automatically by the ratchet 35 and feed pawl 33 cooperating.
After the cutting parameters are set and all the components are ready, the operator begins the cutting operation. The feeding mechanism of the device drives the ratchet wheel 35, further drives the toothed bar 39 to move, so that the clamp vertical plate 391, the fixed clamping piece 392 and the movable clamping piece 393 move together to realize the feeding of workpieces.
After the cut is completed, the operator separates the driving gear ring 41 from the driven gear ring 43 by the unlocking member 46 in the clutch assembly 4, allowing the saw blade 002 to move freely. Then, the return spring 5 pushes the toothed bar 39, so that the clamp vertical plate 391, the fixed clamping piece 392, and the moving clamping piece 393 return to the original positions, that is, the reset of the saw blade 002 is achieved.
The operator then removes the completed cut work piece, checks and evaluates the outcome of the cut. If the cutting result is satisfactory, he can clean the device and prepare the next work piece for cutting.
In the whole process, an operator is closely concerned with the running state of the device all the time, and timely adjustment and intervention are made to ensure the cutting effect and the safe running of the device. In each operation, he strictly adheres to the relevant safety regulations to prevent possible accidents and injuries.
Good, let us apply this example to wood cutting:
It is envisaged that the operator now needs to cut a block of wood. First, he checks the device to confirm that the large gear 36, the small gear 37, the mount 38, and the rack 39 have been properly installed and adjusted. He then places the wood board to be cut on the device and appropriately adjusts the clamp risers 391 and the fixing clips 392 to fit the size and shape of the wood board.
The operator then begins to grip the workpiece. He uses the clamp vertical plate 391, the fixing clip 392, the moving clip 393, and the two mounting seats 38 to stably fix the wood board. The moving jaw 393 is moved along the clamp riser 391 by adjusting the screw 397 to fit the dimensions of the wooden plate. He uses the soft pad 7 to cling to the surface of the wood board, so as to increase the clamping stability.
Because wood is relatively soft, the operator selects the manual feed mode for cutting. He sets the manual feed by means of the clutch assembly 4 and the switching nut 324.
After all parameters are set and ready, the operator starts cutting the board. The feeding mechanism drives the ratchet wheel 35 through the swing component 32 and the power reference component 31, further drives the toothed bar 39 to move, and enables the clamp vertical plate 391, the fixed clamping piece 392 and the movable clamping piece 393 to move together, so that the feeding of the wood board is realized.
After the cutting is completed, the operator separates the driving gear ring 41 from the driven gear ring 43 by the unlocking member 46 in the clutch assembly 4, so that the saw blade 002 can be freely moved. Then, the return spring 5 pushes the toothed bar 39 back, so that the clamp vertical plate 391, the fixed clamping piece 392 and the movable clamping piece 393 return to the original positions, that is, the saw blade 002 is reset.
After taking out the cut wood board, the operator checks the cutting result and evaluates whether the cutting setting needs to be adjusted to optimize the next cutting. In the whole cutting process, the operator needs to pay close attention to the running state of the device, adjust and intervene in time, ensure the cutting effect and ensure the safe running of the device.
After completion he starts to clean the work area, check the device and prepare for the next round of cutting work. In each operation, he follows the relevant safety regulations, preventing possible accidents and injuries.
