Abstract

PURPOSE:To make easy and quick maintenance required for exchange of a condenser lens with a processing head of a laser beam machine by forming a condenser lens holder into a bayonet type. CONSTITUTION:The condenser lens holder 25 of the bayonet type can be freely taken out toward the right by a handle 27 and fixes the condenser lens 9 by a sealing material 13 in the inside. A holder frame 26 has a recess to fit and fix the lens holder 25. The condenser lens holder 25 is thereby easily drawn out and is replaced by a spare, by which the condenser lens is exchanged.

Next, I will explain the operation. The laser beam (2) generated by the laser oscillator (1) is reflected by the t2 mirror (3),
The light is focused onto the workpiece (5) by the condenser lens (4) and melts the workpiece (5). By moving this sharpened workpiece (5) (or processing head), the workpiece (5) can be processed into a predetermined shape. However, during processing, steam or spatter from the molten workpiece (5) may enter the interior through the processing nozzles (6), (7) and adhere to the condenser lens (9). For this reason, the laser beam (2) is absorbed by the condensing lens (9), making it necessary to replace the condensing lens (9). However, to replace the condenser lens (9), first remove the processing nozzles (6) and (7) below the spacer (8), then remove the fixing screws (tn), and then replace the condenser lens (9). I had to replace it with a new condensing lens and reassemble it.
