Laser nozzle with mobile element of improved external profile

摘要

The invention relates to a nozzle for laser cutting comprising a nozzle body (1) comprising an axial housing (5) and a first outlet orifice (11) situated in the region of the front face (1a) of the nozzle body (1), a mobile element (2) arranged in the axial housing (5) of the nozzle body (1), comprising a skirt-forming front part (2a) and comprising a second outlet orifice (12), said mobile element (2) being able to be moved in a translational movement inside the axial housing (5) toward the first outlet orifice (11) under the effect of a gas pressure applied to the mobile element (2) until such time as the skirt-forming front part (2a) of the mobile element (2) projects out from the axial housing (5) through the first outlet orifice (11), and an elastic element (8) arranged in the axial housing (5), between the nozzle body (1) and the mobile element (2), applying an elastic return force to the mobile element (2). According to the invention, the front part (2a) comprises an end portion (17) the outside diameter of which decreases progressively toward the second outlet orifice (12). Focusing head and associated laser cutting installation. Laser-beam cutting method employing a nozzle according to the invention, a laser focusing head according to the invention or an installation according to the invention.

主权项

1. A laser nozzle comprising:
a nozzle body having an axial seat and a first output orifice located at the front face of the nozzle body, a mobile element placed in the axial seat of the nozzle body, having a front skirt-shaped portion and having a second output orifice, said mobile element being movable in translation in the axial seat towards the first output orifice under the effect of a gas pressure exerted on the mobile element until the front skirt-shaped portion of the mobile element protrudes outside the axial seat through the first output orifice, and an elastic element placed in the axial seat between the nozzle body and the mobile element exerting an elastic return force on the mobile element,wherein the front portion has an end portion in which the external diameter decreases progressively in the direction of the second output orifice.
