Embodiment Construction

[0018] Referring now to the drawings, several embodiments or implementations of the present invention are hereinafter described in conjunction with the drawings, wherein like reference numerals are used to refer to like parts throughout. The present disclosure relates to a self-leveling welding puller for welding around the circumference of a cylindrical object. Although various exemplary welding products, methods and systems are illustrated and described in the following context, the invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments.

[0019] figure 1 Illustrated is a welding system 100 that includes a welding tractor 110 positioned at least partially within at least one cylindrical object 120 . The columnar object 120 is supported and stabilized by at least two rollers 130 . The welding tractor 110 is in a forwardly moved position, wherein the welding tractor 110 remains stationary while the cylindrical object 120 rotates about its longitudinal axis due to the weldin...

Abstract

A welding tractor is described as well as a process for using the tractor in which a predefined angle of inclination or declination is maintained during a circumferential welding process.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to welding systems, and more particularly, to products, methods, and systems for remotely circumferentially welding cylindrical joints of objects during rotation. Background technique [0002] Columnar objects often require welding on their inner or outer circumference. Such columnar objects include, for example, pipes, tanks, and the like. Welding is used, for example, to join two columns, to seal columns, to repair columns, to apply plating, and the like. Commonly, remote welding tractors are used in confined interior or exterior locations of columnar objects. To complete the weld, the welding tractor travels around the circumference of the cylindrical object. To maintain these tugs in contact with the surface of the cylindrical object, the cylindrical object is usually rotated about its longitudinal axis. Thus, the welding tractor maintains its initial position relative to the columnar object by moving in the oppos...
