[0024] figure 1 It is a block diagram of the hardware structure of the welding machine control program upgrading system of the first embodiment of the present invention. Such as figure 1 As shown, the welding machine control program upgrading system of the present invention includes a client PC1, a server PC2 and a welding machine 3. PC1 and PC2 are connected through a network so as to be able to communicate with each other. PC1 and welding machine 3 are connected so as to be able to communicate with each other. CPU, RAM, FLASH and interface (I / F) units (such as wired network interface, wireless network interface, USB interface, etc.) are provided in the welding machine 3 . The CPU is used for overall control over the upgrade of the welder. RAM is the working area of ​​the CPU, and FLASH (flash memory) is used to store programs and data executed by the CPU. The I / F unit is used for the connection between the welding machine 3 and the PC1. Although in the first embodiment...

Embodiment 2

[0035] Combine below Figure 4 and Figure 5 A second embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0036] In the second embodiment, the hardware configuration of the present invention is the same as that of the first embodiment, so the description will not be repeated.

[0037] In the second embodiment, the software structure of the present invention ( Figure 4 ) with that of the first embodiment ( figure 2 ) are basically the same, so the description will not be repeated for the same parts. Only the differences between the second embodiment and the first embodiment are described below.

[0038] The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that a verification unit (such as Figure 4 shown), is used to verify the welding machine information, and the determination unit determines the upgrade program corresponding to the welding machine according to the verified welding machine information.

[0039] Figure 5 It is a flow chart of upgra...

Embodiment 3

[0042] The following combination Figure 6 and Figure 7 A third embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0043] In the third embodiment, the hardware configuration of the present invention is the same as that of the first embodiment, so the description will not be repeated.

[0044] In the third embodiment, the software structure of the present invention ( Figure 6 ) with that of the first embodiment ( figure 2 ) are basically the same, so the description will not be repeated for the same parts. Only the differences between the third embodiment and the first embodiment are described below.

[0045] The difference between the third embodiment and the first embodiment is that an encryption unit (such as Figure 6 shown), is used to encrypt the determined upgrade program by using the welding machine information, and a decryption unit (such as Figure 6 shown), used to decrypt the encrypted upgrade program according to the welder information.

Abstract

The invention provides a welding machine control program upgrading system and an upgrading method. The welding machine control program upgrade system includes: a client, a welding machine, and a server. The client and the welding machine can communicate with each other, and the server and the client can communicate with each other through the network. The client requests the welding machine information from the welding machine, and the welding machine obtains the welding machine information according to the request, and sends the welding machine information to the client. The client sends the received welding machine information to the server. The server determines the corresponding upgrade program according to the welding machine information, and sends it to the welding machine via the client. The welder is upgraded according to the upgrade program received. The invention can realize remote automatic and accurate upgrading of the control programs of multiple welding machines through the network.

Description

[0001] [technical field] [0002] The invention relates to an upgrading technology of a welding machine control program, in particular to a welding machine control program upgrading system and an upgrading method. [0003] [Background technique] [0004] In the past, when welding machine users put forward new requirements or the welding machine software (control program) needs to upgrade the program, the usual practice is to download the upgrade program to the writer through the PC first, and then the service personnel go to the welding site to write the program. The input device upgrades the program one by one. Due to the diversity and complexity of welding machine usage occasions, the upgrade process often takes a long time, and service personnel need to be trained to be competent for this job. As a result, welding machine software upgrades have high maintenance costs, low efficiency, and poor timeliness. [0005] [Content of the invention] [0006] [technical problem] ...
