Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of stainless steel pipe welding devices, in particular to a stainless steel pipe processing welding device with a groove cutting function. Background Art

[0002] Stainless steel pipes generally need to be beveled during welding to ensure the firmness of the weld. Beveling can increase the contact area of ​​the pipe and make the weld firmer. Without beveling, large deviation or cracking is likely to occur during welding, and the welding quality requirements cannot be met, which in turn affects the quality of the pipe. In addition, when using pressure testing, the pipe joints without bevels are prone to leakage, which seriously affects the use effect. The split-flap pipe cutting and beveling machine equipment is suitable for pipe cutting and bevel maintenance in industrial and mining enterprises such as gas, oil and petrochemical, and is suitable for various working environments: grooves, flammable and explosive, and narrow spaces where noise is prohibited;

[0003] At present, the stainless steel pipe welding device in the prior art still has shortcomings. When the existing stainless steel pipe welding device is in use, its groove cutting device and welding device are generally two independent sets of devices, which results in the need to perform centering and welding work after cutting is completed during use. Therefore, frequent disassembly and replacement of equipment is required, which is not conducive to practical use. In addition, the groove completed by cutting is easily damaged during the disassembly and replacement of the equipment, thereby affecting the welding device. Therefore, a device that can integrate cutting and welding is needed to reduce the time-consuming frequent replacement and disassembly of equipment and simplify the process.

[0004] In view of the above technical problems, this application proposes a solution. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention realizes integrated processing of the welding device and the cutting device by installing a rotating floating ring and a welding ring on a fixed ring. After the cutting is completed, the fixed ring is moved so that the two groups of fixed rings are fixed on the two groups of pipes at the same time, and the welding ring is aligned with the weld position, which not only ensures the stability of the welding device during welding, but also ensures the relative stability of the two groups of pipes to be welded by the simultaneous fixation of the two groups of fixed rings, solves the problem that the groove cutting and welding need to be frequently replaced and disassembled, thereby affecting the welding efficiency and welding quality, and proposes a welding device for stainless steel pipe processing with a groove cutting function.

[0006] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A welding device for processing stainless steel pipes with a groove cutting function, comprising a first fixing ring and a second fixing ring, wherein a floating ring is rotatably connected to the outer side of the first fixing ring, and a welding ring is rotatably connected between the first fixing ring and the second fixing ring;

[0008] The first fixed ring, the second fixed ring, the floating ring and the welding ring are divided into upper and lower two-petal structures, and the separation is fixedly installed with a limiting device. The floating ring can slide on the first fixed ring through a sliding groove, and the welding ring slides between the first fixed ring and the second fixed ring in the form of a sliding groove;

[0009] The outer walls of the first fixed ring and the second fixed ring are fixedly mounted with an outrigger electronic control device, and the fixed outrigger is movably connected inside the outrigger electronic control device; the outer wall of the floating ring is fixedly mounted with a blade mounting frame, and the cutting blade is mounted in the blade mounting frame via a motor; a welding station is mounted on the welding ring, and the floating ring and the welding ring are controlled by an electric crawling device.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it also includes a welding device control system, which includes a positioning confirmation unit, a cutting monitoring unit, a welding control unit and a movement review unit;

[0011] The positioning confirmation unit is used to confirm the position of the fixed legs and automatically adjust according to the confirmation result;

[0012] The cutting monitoring unit is used to monitor the vibration during cutting and determine the vibration condition of the cutting operation according to the vibration monitoring result;

[0013] The welding control unit is used to control the operation of the welding ring and the welding station;

[0014] The mobile checking unit is used to confirm the centering conditions of the first fixing ring and the second fixing ring during welding, and control the welding control unit to send a welding instruction after the confirmation is completed.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the positioning confirmation unit records each set of fixed legs as a retracted length;

[0016] The positioning confirmation unit selects two groups of contraction lengths with the smallest difference in contraction length among all fixed legs, and calculates the average value of the two selected groups of contraction lengths to obtain a basic contraction length;

[0017] The positioning confirmation unit compares the contracted lengths of all fixed legs on the same fixed ring with the basic contracted length, obtains the difference between the contracted length and the basic contracted length, and compares the difference with a preset threshold. If the difference is greater than the preset threshold, a deviation signal is generated, and the fixed leg that generates the deviation signal is recorded as the deviation leg.

[0018] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the positioning confirmation unit generates an extension signal for the deviation leg when the contraction length of the deviation leg is less than the basic contraction length, and generates a shortening signal for the deviation leg when the contraction length of the deviation leg is greater than the basic contraction length;

[0019] The positioning confirmation unit calculates the difference between the contracted length of the deviation leg and the basic contracted length, and adjusts the deviation leg accordingly according to the shortening signal or the lengthening signal, so that the deviation leg is shortened or lengthened, and the shortened or lengthened length is equal to the difference, and generates a positioning completion signal after the adjustment is completed.

[0020] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cutting monitoring unit collects the vibration amplitude generated by the floating ring and records it as a vibration parameter;

[0021] The cutting monitoring unit records the vibration parameters with time as the horizontal axis and vibration amplitude as the vertical axis, collects the peaks and troughs in the recorded vibration parameter curve, and records the difference between the peaks and troughs of the vibration as the vibration span. The cutting detection unit records the vibration span as F, and obtains the vibration reference value f by multiplying the coefficient θ with the vibration span. The cutting monitoring unit records all vibrations in the vibration parameters whose amplitudes are greater than the vibration reference value f as strong vibrations.

[0022] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cutting monitoring unit counts the frequency of strong vibrations to obtain the strong vibration frequency, and compares the strong vibration frequency with a preset frequency threshold. If the strong vibration frequency is greater than the preset frequency threshold, a vibration abnormality signal is generated; if the strong vibration frequency is less than the preset frequency threshold, no response is made.

[0023] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the welding control unit is used to control the rotation of the welding ring and the operation of the welding station according to a set program;

[0024] Before welding the stainless steel pipe, the welding device for processing the stainless steel pipe places a floating ring on the port of the pipe, and uses a blade on the floating ring to cut the groove of the port of the pipe. After cutting, the position of the welding device for processing the stainless steel pipe is moved so that the first fixing ring and the second fixing ring are respectively fixed on the two groups of stainless steel pipes, thereby fixing the two groups of stainless steel pipes at the same time.

[0025] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, before the welding control unit operates, the mobile review unit obtains the adjustment results of the fixed legs on the first fixed ring and the second fixed ring through the positioning confirmation unit. When all the fixed legs on the first fixed ring and the second fixed ring are fully adjusted, a mobile review completion signal is generated and sent to the welding control unit. After obtaining the mobile review completion signal, the welding control unit performs welding work.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0027] 1. In the present invention, a rotating floating ring and a welding ring are installed on a fixed ring, thereby realizing integrated processing of a welding device and a cutting device. After the cutting is completed, the fixed ring is moved so that two groups of fixed rings are fixed on two groups of pipes at the same time, and the welding ring is aligned with the weld position, which not only ensures the stability of the welding device during welding, but also ensures the relative stability of the two groups of pipes being welded by the simultaneous fixation of the two groups of fixed rings, thereby avoiding the movement of the two groups of pipes during the welding process and causing welding deviation.

[0028] 2. In the present invention, during welding, the welding device is split by a two-petal structure, thereby facilitating the installation of the device. When the welding device is installed, the pipe and the welding device are fixed to each other by lengthening and shortening the fixed legs, thereby ensuring the stability of the welding device.

[0029] 3. In the present invention, when the fixed legs are in contact with the welding device, the control system performs intelligent analysis on the lengths between the multiple fixed legs and performs automatic adjustments to ensure that the axis of the welding device is aligned with the axis of the pipeline, thereby ensuring the accuracy of welding and groove cutting, and ensuring the cutting quality and welding quality.

[0036] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] Embodiment 1:

[0038] See also Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, a welding device for processing stainless steel pipes with a groove cutting function comprises a first fixing ring 2, two sides of the first fixing ring 2 are rotatably connected with a floating ring 1 and a welding ring 3, and a side of the welding ring 3 away from the first fixing ring 2 is rotatably connected with a second fixing ring 4;

[0039] The first fixing ring 2, the second fixing ring 4, the floating ring 1 and the welding ring 3 are divided into upper and lower two-petal structures, each petal is a semicircular structure, wherein a limiting device 8 is fixedly installed at the separation of the semicircular structures of the first fixing ring 2 and the second fixing ring 4, and the limiting devices 8 on the first fixing ring 2 and the second fixing ring 4 can be connected by bolts, so that the first fixing ring 2 and the second fixing ring 4 form an integral ring;

[0040] At the same time, the floating ring 1 can slide on the first fixed ring 2 through the sliding groove. When the first fixed ring 2 forms an overall ring shape, the floating ring 1 rotates in the overall annular sliding groove. The welding ring 3 slides between the first fixed ring 2 and the second fixed ring 4 in the form of a sliding groove. When the first fixed ring 2 and the second fixed ring 4 are connected to form an overall ring shape, the welding ring 3 rotates in the circular sliding groove formed by the first fixed ring 2 and the second fixed ring 4.

[0041] The outer walls of the first fixing ring 2 and the second fixing ring 4 are fixedly mounted with a leg electric control device 7, the inside of which is movably connected with a fixed leg 6, which passes through the first fixing ring 2 or the second fixing ring 4, and multiple groups of leg electric control devices 7 and fixed legs 6 are evenly distributed on the first fixing ring 2 and the second fixing ring 4;

[0042] A blade mounting frame 5 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the floating ring 1, and a motor is arranged in the blade mounting frame 5. The output end of the motor is used to install a cutting blade, and the pipe groove is cut by the cutting blade. A welding station 9 is installed on the welding ring 3. The area of ​​the welding station 9 located on the inner side of the welding ring 3 is the welding gun head, and the area located on the outer side of the welding ring 3 is used to connect the cable for power supply. The floating ring 1 and the welding ring 3 are controlled by an electric crawling device, so as to control the floating ring 1 or the welding ring 3 to rotate.

[0043] Embodiment 2:

[0044] See also Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, a welding device for processing stainless steel pipes with a groove cutting function also includes a welding device control system, which includes a positioning confirmation unit, a cutting monitoring unit, a welding control unit, and a movement review unit. The positioning confirmation unit obtains the extended length of the fixed legs 6 through the leg electronic control device 7, and the positioning confirmation unit records each group of fixed legs 6 as the retracted length;

[0045] The positioning confirmation unit compares the contraction lengths of the fixed legs 6 on the same fixed ring, thereby selecting two groups of contraction lengths with the smallest difference in contraction lengths among all the fixed legs 6, and calculates the average value of the two selected groups of contraction lengths, thereby obtaining the basic contraction length;

[0046] The positioning confirmation unit compares the contracted lengths of all the fixed legs 6 on the same fixed ring with the basic contracted length, obtains the difference between the contracted length and the basic contracted length, and compares the difference with a preset threshold value. If the difference is greater than the preset threshold value, a deviation signal is generated, and the fixed leg 6 generating the deviation signal is recorded as a deviation leg. If the difference is not greater than the preset threshold value, a normal signal is generated.

[0047] After obtaining the deviation leg, the positioning confirmation unit compares the contraction length of the deviation leg with the basic contraction length. If the contraction length of the deviation leg is less than the basic contraction length, an extension signal is generated for the deviation leg. If the contraction length of the deviation leg is greater than the basic contraction length, a shortening signal is generated for the deviation leg.

[0048] The positioning confirmation unit calculates the difference between the contracted length of the deviation leg and the basic contracted length, and adjusts the deviation leg accordingly according to the shortening signal or the lengthening signal, so that the deviation leg is shortened or lengthened, and the shortened or lengthened length is equal to the difference, and generates a positioning completion signal after the adjustment is completed, so that the extension length of the fixed leg 6 on the fixed ring is unified, ensuring that the center point of the first fixed ring 2 and the second fixed ring 4 coincides with the axis of the pipeline.

[0049] Embodiment 2:

[0050] See also Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, after obtaining the positioning completion signal from the positioning confirmation unit, the cutting monitoring unit controls the blade on the blade mounting frame 5 to rotate and the floating ring 1 to rotate, thereby realizing the cutting of the pipe groove. During the blade cutting process, the cutting monitoring unit collects the vibration amplitude generated by the floating ring 1 and records it as a vibration parameter;

[0051] The cutting monitoring unit records the vibration parameters with time as the horizontal axis and vibration amplitude as the vertical axis, collects the peaks and troughs in the recorded vibration parameter curve, and records the difference between the peaks and troughs of the vibration as the vibration span. The cutting detection unit records the vibration span as F, and calculates the product of the coefficient θ and the vibration span to obtain the vibration reference value f. The cutting monitoring unit records all vibrations in the vibration parameters whose vibration amplitudes are greater than the vibration reference value f as strong vibrations.

[0052] The cutting monitoring unit counts the frequency of strong vibration to obtain the strong vibration frequency, and compares the strong vibration frequency with the preset frequency threshold. If the strong vibration frequency is greater than the preset frequency threshold, a vibration abnormality signal is generated. If the strong vibration frequency is less than the preset frequency threshold, no response is made.

[0053] After obtaining the abnormal vibration signal, the cutting monitoring unit will warn of the vibration through the sound and light alarm device.

[0054] Embodiment three:

[0055] See also Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, the welding control unit is used to control the rotation of the welding ring 3 and the operation of the welding station 9 according to the set program, so as to realize the welding of the stainless steel pipe. Before welding the stainless steel pipe, the stainless steel pipe processing welding device is used to cut the groove of the pipe port by placing the floating ring 1 on the pipe port and cutting the groove of the pipe port by the blade on the floating ring 1. After the cutting is completed, the position of the stainless steel pipe processing welding device is moved so that the first fixing ring 2 and the second fixing ring 4 are respectively fixed on the two groups of stainless steel pipes, thereby fixing the two groups of stainless steel pipes at the same time, and the working position of the welding station 9 is aligned with the two groups of stainless steel pipes, so as to realize the welding operation of the stainless steel pipe.

[0056] Before the welding control unit starts working, the mobile review unit obtains the adjustment results of the fixed legs 6 on the first fixed ring 2 and the second fixed ring 4 through the positioning confirmation unit. When all the fixed legs 6 on the first fixed ring 2 and the second fixed ring 4 are adjusted, a mobile review completion signal is generated and sent to the welding control unit. After obtaining the mobile review completion signal, the welding control unit performs welding work.

[0057] The preferred embodiments of the present invention disclosed above are only used to help explain the present invention. The preferred embodiments do not describe all the details in detail, nor do they limit the invention to only specific implementation methods. Obviously, many modifications and changes can be made according to the content of this specification.
