Embodiment Construction

[0010] Various embodiments in accordance with the present disclosure relate to visually displaying thermal duty cycles. In this regard, many welding power sources have thermal protection, which is used to prevent potential damage caused by overheating. Thermal protection may include applying one or more protective measures as deemed necessary, such as turning on an internal fan (or turning on a similar cooling device), disabling the welding output, shutting down the system (or its components), and the like. In this regard, when certain criteria are met (eg, based on a determination that the temperature has reached a predetermined maximum temperature), thermal protection measures may be applied, and an error (eg, over temperature) may be indicated. In some cases, the temperature of the welding power source may also be indicated to the operator (eg, graphically).

[0011] In some cases, thermal protection may be controlled and / or configured based on the duty cycle of the weldin...

Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for visually displaying thermal duty cycles. Remaining weld time may be determined in a welding-type apparatus based on one or more parameters that correspond to at least one of: a real-time measurement corresponding to ambient conditions, a real-time measurement corresponding to power consumption, and a thermal profile of the welding apparatus. The information relating to the indication of remaining weld time may be presented to an operator of the welding-type system. The welding-type power supply may be shut off when a shut off threshold is satisfied.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application discloses a method and system for visually displaying thermal duty cycles. Background technique [0002] Welding has become increasingly common. Welding can be performed in an automated manner or manually (eg, by a human). During the welding operation, the equipment used may become hot. Therefore, to prevent possible damage that can be caused by overheating, thermal protection can be used. [0003] Conventional methods for implementing and utilizing thermal protection in welded systems can be cumbersome, inefficient, and / or expensive. Other limitations and disadvantages of conventional methods for implementing and utilizing thermal protection in welded systems, by comparing these methods with some aspects of the methods and systems of the present invention set forth in the remainder of this disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings, It will become apparent to those skilled in the art.
