Problems solved by technology

[0006] According to the above configuration, the workpiece holder is rotated at a predetermined angle corresponding to the position of the hole into which the welding torch is inserted. There is a risk of false detection of spatter as welding torch misoperation, and since it is necessary to control the rotary table driven by a motor, there is a problem that the control mechanism becomes not only complicated but also expensive

Embodiment Construction

[0020] The following is based on Figure 1~ Figure 5 The control device according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0021] In addition, in the present embodiment, a description will be given as a control device that controls a posture changing device that can change the posture of a workpiece that is a workpiece to be welded by an automatic assembly device such as a welding robot.

[0022] As shown in FIG. 1 , a welding robot 1 includes, for example, an articulated manipulator 2 , and a welding torch (an example of an operation member) 3 is attached to the tip of the manipulator 2 . In addition, at a position corresponding to the welding robot 1, there are a posture changing device (an example of an operating device) 4 for holding a workpiece W as a workpiece W to be welded and changing its posture, and a part for attaching another part W′. A mounting device (an example of operating equipment) 5 and a control device 6 for controlling th...

Abstract

A control device (6) capable of controlling operation devices, such as a workpiece attitude changing device (5) etc., by a welding torch of a welding robot. In a casing (31), there are provided detection members (33) at plural places, capable of detecting the welding torch; air supply tubes (37) each connected at one end side to an air source (34) and having at the other end side an air supply opening for supplying air to the operation devices; a solenoid opening / closing valve (38) in the middle of each of the air supply tubes; and a control circuit section (39) for receiving a detection signal from each of the detection members and outputting a control signal to a predetermined solenoid opening / closing valve. Each of the detection members is constructed from plural sets of optical sensors capable of detecting two places of the welding torch. The control circuit section is constructed such that a predetermined control signal is outputted when a detection signal from each of the optical sensors is obtained at the same time.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a control device capable of controlling an operating device for changing the posture of an object to be welded by using air pressure when welding is performed by an automatic assembly device such as a welding robot. Background technique [0002] Generally, in an automatic assembly device such as an automatic welding device, a workpiece as an object to be welded is held by a holding device, and a welding robot automatically performs welding at a predetermined position. In this welding, for example, when it is necessary to weld a predetermined position around the workpiece, the rotary table that holds the workpiece provided on the side of the holding device is rotated by a predetermined angle. For example, in order to perform flat welding, the welding position is usually positioned on the upper side. [0003] Such a holding device is configured to operate in conjunction with the welding robot. Specifically, the control d...
