Preferably, on the front and rear side plates of the processing rack 4 are provided cutter inspection slots 11, and to the outside of the front and rear side plates of the processing rack 4 are provided with inspection feeding cylinders 12 movable back and forth; the inspection feeding cylinders 12 are connected with inspection feeding blocks 13, the inspection feeding blocks 13 are connected with inspection slot blocks 14 which can pass the cutter inspection slot 11; the inner end of the inspection slot block 14 is a slotted block concave in the middle, the slots thereof correspond to the position of the two cutting pressing blocks 9, where first contact sensors 15 are embedded, the depth of the slots in the detecting slots 14 coincides with the height difference between the cutter 1 and the cutting pressing blocks 9.
Preferably, a pressure sensor 16 is disposed at where the slot in the inspection slot block 14 matches with the cutter 1, and a second contact sensor 17 whose width is consistent with the cutter 1 tip width is disposed under the pressure sensor 16 located directly below the cutter 1.
Preferably, the cutting lift seat 8 is provided with a cutter mounting block 23, the cutter 1 is installed under the cutter mounting block 23, and the cutter 1 cooperates with the cutting lift seat 8 by gap plugging and fitting, the cutting lift seat 8 at the left and right side of the cutter mounting block 23 is provided with a cutter adjusting motor 2 and a screw mounting block 22, a cutter adjusting screw 21 is disposed between the cutter adjusting motor 2 and the screw mounting block 22, and the cutter mounting block 23 is sleeved on the cutter adjusting screw 21. During use, first debug the device, and then put steel sheet 3 into the conveyor seat 2 and convey to the right. When the steel sheet 3 is under the flattening block 6, the flattening block 6 is pressed under the action of the flattening cylinder 5, and the corresponding steel sheet 3 is flattened. After that, the steel sheet is continuously conveyed, and when the steel sheet is conveyed under the cutter 1, the cutting lift seat 8 descends under the effect of the cutting cylinder 7, thereby the steel sheet is pressed in position by the cutting pressing block 9; meanwhile, and cutting of the steel sheet is finished by the cutter 1.
Then subsequent steel sheets are conveyed continuously and the above flattening and cutting process is repeated. The cut steel sheet is pushed into the qualified product collecting box 31 and supported by the collecting supporting block 39. Then, the collecting inspection cylinder 35 drives the collecting detecting lift block 36 to descend. The flatness of steel sheet can be determined by checking whether all fourth contact sensors 37 generate sensing signal. If all the fourth contact sensors 37 generate sensing signal, the steel sheet is proved to be qualified product. The supporting block feed cylinder 41 drives the collecting supporting block 39 to move outwards, thereby the steel sheet falls onto the collecting block 33, the collecting and receiving springs 32 are pressed down a little so that the upper surface of the steel sheet remains aligned with the upper surface of the original collecting block 33 (this can be achieved by setting the stiffness coefficient of the springs according to the weight of the steel sheet). If not all of the fourth contact sensors generate the sensing signal at the same time, the steel sheet is proved to be a defective product, and the next steel sheet will push it into the defective collecting box 42.
When the cutter is used for a while, drive the inspection slot block 14 to insert into the processing rack 4 with the inspection feeding cylinder 12, and drive the cutting lift block 8 to descend with the cutting cylinder 7. Stop the decline of the cutting cylinder 7 when the cutting pressing block 9 contacts the first contact sensor 15. If the pressure sensor 16 does not generate a pressure signal, it proves that the cutter is worn; if the pressure sensor 16 generates a pressure signal, check whether the cutter 1 is deviated by checking whether the second contact sensors 17 generate an sensing signal, if no sensing signal is generated, drive the cutter adjusting screw 21 to move with the cutter adjusting motor 2, thereby drive the cutting mounting block 23 to move until the second contact sensor 17 generates signal, so that the position adjustment of the grinded cutter is finished, after that, return the inspection feeding cylinder to the original position and continue cutting operation.
