Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of plasma thermal spraying processing, in particular to a thermal spraying automatic robot for maintenance of a die-casting die. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an important surface engineering technology, thermal spraying plays a key role in industrial manufacturing. Among them, plasma thermal spraying technology has shown significant advantages in the maintenance and performance improvement of die-casting dies due to its unique process characteristics. Plasma thermal spraying is a process method that forms a dense coating by using the extremely high temperature (usually up to 10000-15000 ℃) and energy density of high-temperature plasma formed by ionizing inert gases (such as argon, nitrogen or mixed gases) to instantaneously melt and high-speed spray the sprayed material to the substrate surface. Compared with traditional flame spraying, arc spraying and other technologies, the most significant feature of plasma thermal spraying is its ultra-high temperature characteristics, which makes it irreplaceable in the maintenance and maintenance of die-casting dies.

[0003] As a production tool for non-ferrous metal parts such as aluminum alloy, copper alloy, etc., the die-casting die surface is subjected to long-term erosion, corrosion and thermal fatigue of molten metal at high temperature during use, resulting in surface wear, cracking, corrosion and other failure phenomena. Therefore, the surface of the die-casting die needs to be maintained periodically to ensure the quality of the production of non-ferrous metal parts such as aluminum alloy, copper alloy, etc. Plasma thermal spraying technology can effectively deposit high-melting-point wear-resistant and heat-resistant materials (such as tungsten carbide, aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, etc.) on the die surface to form a protective coating with excellent performance. In particular, its extremely high plasma temperature can completely melt these high-melting-point materials, ensuring good metallurgical bonding between the coating and the substrate, which is difficult to achieve by other thermal spraying processes. For example, the temperature of flame spraying is usually only 2500-3000 ℃, which is far from enough to melt ceramic materials such as aluminum oxide (melting point 2050 ℃); while arc spraying has higher temperature, but still has limitations when spraying high-melting-point materials. In contrast, the ultra-high temperature characteristics of plasma thermal spraying enable it to handle almost all known engineering materials, providing a wider choice for surface strengthening of die-casting dies.

[0004] However, the high-temperature characteristics of plasma thermal spraying also bring some challenges, the most important of which is the thermal influence on the substrate material. During the spraying process, the high-temperature plasma not only melts the sprayed material, but also produces significant heat input to the die substrate. If not controlled, the excessively high substrate temperature will cause the die to deform, concentrate thermal stress, and even degrade the performance of the substrate material. Especially for precision die-casting dies, slight thermal deformation can affect their dimensional accuracy and service life.

[0005] In the prior art, for example, the surface plasma thermal spraying process of forged aluminum alloy wheel hub of patent No. CN108531849A, by using compressed air to forcibly cool the hub during plasma spraying, so as to achieve the purpose of cooling the plasma thermal spraying effect.

[0006] In the prior art, by using compressed air to cool during thermal spraying, the problem of heat input to the base body during high-temperature plasma thermal spraying is solved. However, in actual work, using the method of plasma thermal spraying on the inner layer of the die casting mold at the same time, and cooling the outer surface of the die casting mold with compressed air, will cause the coating particles that have not completely solidified in the inner layer of the die casting mold to cool prematurely during thermal spraying maintenance of the die casting mold, resulting in insufficient spreading of the molten particles, and the bonding strength of the molten particles to the die casting mold is reduced. Secondly, using the method of spraying and cooling at the same time, the cooling compressed air also has the risk of disturbing the deposition of molten particles, causing uneven distribution of the coating sprayed on the die casting mold, affecting the maintenance effect of the die casting mold, and further affecting the quality of non-ferrous metal part production. In the prior art, the method of thermal spraying first and then cooling can also be used. However, this method requires the plasma thermal spraying action of the die casting mold to be completed in one go, and then the die casting mold is cooled, otherwise it will be difficult for the plasma spray gun to reposition to the original spraying position of the mold, resulting in uneven thermal spraying inside the mold. Secondly, when thermal spraying a larger die casting mold, if the die casting mold is completely sprayed, the high temperature of the base body will cause the mold to deform.

[0007] Therefore, a thermal spraying automation robot for die casting mold maintenance is proposed. SUMMARY

To solve the problem that in the prior art, during plasma thermal spraying maintenance of the die casting mold, spraying and cooling at the same time will affect the spraying quality, and spraying first and then cooling, when the die casting mold is large, completely spraying and then cooling will cause the mold base body to accumulate a lot of heat, causing the mold to deform, and using the method of spraying and cooling at the same time will cause the plasma spray gun to be difficult to reposition to the original spraying position, resulting in uneven spraying.

At this time, the switching rod 10162 is locked with the adjusting rod 81 due to the friction, so that the synchronous limiting rod 1015 and the adjusting sleeve 86 are fixed relative to the adjusting rod 81, thereby ensuring that the position of the spray gun 6 is fixed.When the switching rod 10162 moves downward, the switching baffle 10163 presses the switching elastic member 10164 downward, the lower end of the switching rod 10162 contacts the synchronous limiting groove 1012 of the synchronous connecting rod 1011, the upper end of the switching rod 10162 is separated from the contact with the adjusting rod 81, the switching rod 10162 is unlocked with the adjusting rod 81, at this time, the switching rod 10162 can also keep the synchronous limiting rod 1015, the adjusting sleeve 86 and the synchronous connecting rod 1011 synchronous due to the friction with the bottom of the synchronous limiting groove 1012, and then the position of the moving adjusting sleeve 86 is adjusted to adjust the extension length of the spray gun 6, the position of the synchronous connecting rod 1011 can also be changed synchronously, and then the position of the synchronous block 9 is changed, the right end of the driving dial rod 1013 is rotationally connected with the moving driving cone gear 331, the left end of the driven dial rod 1014 is rotationally connected with the moving driven cone gear 334, therefore, when the position of the synchronous block 9 is changed, the synchronous block 9 can also drive the driven dial rod 1014 and the driving dial rod 1013 to change the position, and then the position of the moving driven cone gear 334 and the moving driving cone gear 331 is changed, and then the transmission ratio of the driving shaft 31 and the driven shaft 32 is changed, so that when the spray gun 6 sprays the die casting mold with different diameters, the distance between the spray gun 6 and the inner wall of the die casting mold can be adjusted to ensure the effect of plasma spraying, and when the position of the spray gun 6 is adjusted, the transmission ratio of the transmission is changed according to the extension position of the spray gun 6, and then the rotation speed of the transmission shaft is changed, and finally the left and right moving speed of the spray gun 6 is changed, so that the spray gun 6 can change the extension position of the spray gun 6 according to the size of the inner diameter of the die casting mold, and automatically change the rotation speed of the driven shaft 32, and then the moving speed of the spray gun 6 can be changed, so that the moving speed of the spray gun 6 matches the inner diameter of the die casting mold, and then the uniformity and comprehensiveness of the spray gun 6 on the inner wall of the die casting mold during plasma spraying is ensured, and there is no un-sprayed area due to the large inner diameter of the die casting mold and the fast moving speed of the spray gun 6, and there is no overlapping of the spraying area due to the small inner diameter of the die casting mold and the slow moving speed of the spray gun 6, and the quality of the plasma thermal spraying is further ensured.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 8The side of the synchronous limiting rod 1015 is slidably connected with a stabilizing block 10151, and the lower end of the stabilizing block 10151 is matched with the upper end of the switching baffle 10163. The matching here refers to that, when the position of the adjusting sleeve 86 needs to be adjusted to change the extension length of the spray gun 6, at this time, the switching baffle 10163 needs to be pressed downward to extrude the switching elastic member 10164, so that the switching baffle 10163 drives the switching rod 10162 to move downward, the upper end of the switching rod 10162 is disengaged from the adjusting rod 81, and the lower end of the switching rod 10162 is in contact and friction with the bottom of the synchronous limiting groove 1012. Then, the position of the adjusting sleeve 86 is adjusted to change the extension length of the spray gun 6. In order to free one hand of the operator and keep the lower end of the switching rod 10162 in stable friction with the bottom of the synchronous limiting groove 1012, the stabilizing block 10151 is arranged. When the lower end of the switching rod 10162 is in contact with the bottom of the synchronous limiting groove 1012, the switching baffle 10163 moves to the lower side end of the stabilizing block 10151. At this time, the stabilizing block 10151 only needs to be pushed to the upper end of the switching baffle 10163 to be in contact with the switching baffle 10163, so that the switching rod 10162 can be kept in the position in contact with the bottom of the synchronous limiting groove 1012. The synchronous block 9 is also provided with a fastening bolt, which can fix the synchronous block 9 and the chassis 1 after being tightened. When the spray gun 6 is adjusted, the stabilizing block 10151 moves to the upper end of the switching baffle 10163, and the operator can loosen the fastening bolt to make the adjusting sleeve 86 drive the synchronous block 9 to move when the position of the adjusting sleeve 86 is adjusted. After adjustment, the operator only needs to tighten the fastening bolt to fix the synchronous block 9.

[0051] The cooling system uses compressed air to cool the non-spraying area on the outer surface of the die casting mold. Specifically, the chuck 2 is provided with a temperature sensor for monitoring the temperature of the die casting mold. When the temperature of the die casting mold is high, an abnormal temperature signal will be sent to the cooling system. The cooling system can be fixed on the chassis 1, which is not shown in the figure. The cooling nozzle is arranged at a position capable of blowing the side of the rotating die casting mold. The cooling system is a compressed air cooling system, which includes a buffer gas storage tank, a precision pressure regulating valve, an electromagnetic valve group, a mass flow controller, a cooling nozzle, a PLC control cabinet, a pipeline system, etc. The cooling system is provided with a signal processing unit for receiving signals sent by the temperature sensor and driving the cooling nozzle to spray according to the received signals.

[0052] The above cooling system can also be manually controlled. When the temperature sensor detects a temperature signal, the operator can observe the specific temperature of the die casting mold and control the spray gun 6 to stop thermal spraying and control the telescopic cylinder to start working when the temperature is too high. The cooling system is turned on to cool the die casting mold. After cooling, the cooling system is turned off, and then the telescopic cylinder is extended to the left, and the spray gun 6 starts plasma thermal spraying at the same time when the telescopic cylinder is completely reset.

[0053] Please refer toFigures 9 to 10 The repositioning part 102 comprises a horizontal pushing groove 1021, a horizontal pushing block 1022, a vertical pushing groove 1023, a vertical pushing block 1024, a vertical pushing plate 1025, a friction groove 1026, a friction block 1027, a friction rod 1028, a friction spring 1029 and a friction baffle 1030. The horizontal pushing groove 1021 is arranged at the right side of the connecting groove 341, the horizontal pushing block 1022 is slidingly connected in the connecting groove 341, the left end of the horizontal pushing block 1022 is fixedly connected with the right end of the connecting block 342, the vertical pushing groove 1023 is arranged at the rear end of the horizontal pushing groove 1021, the vertical pushing block 1024 is slidingly connected in the vertical pushing groove 1023 of the connecting groove 341, the front end of the vertical pushing block 1024 is provided with a vertical pushing chamfer 10241, the vertical pushing chamfer 10241 is matched with the right end of the horizontal pushing block 1022. The matching here means that when the connecting block 342 moves right to drive the connecting sleeve 343 to move right, the connecting sleeve 343 is separated from the sliding key of the driven shaft 32, the connecting block 342 drives the horizontal pushing block 1022 to move right, the horizontal pushing block 1022 moves right to contact the vertical pushing chamfer 10241, and the horizontal pushing block 1022 drives the vertical pushing block 1024 and the vertical pushing plate 1025 to move backward along the vertical pushing chamfer 10241 until the vertical pushing chamfer 10241 is completely moved to the rear end of the horizontal pushing block 1022. The vertical pushing plate 1025 is fixedly connected at the rear end of the vertical pushing block 1024. The friction groove 1026 is arranged in the synchronous connecting rod 1011, the friction block 1027 is slidingly connected in the friction groove 1026, the friction rod 1028 is fixedly connected at the front end of the friction block 1027, the friction baffle 1030 is arranged outside the front end of the fixed connecting rod, the friction baffle 1030 is connected with the friction rod 1028, the friction spring 1029 is respectively abutted at both ends with the rear end of the friction baffle 1030 and the front end of the fixed connecting rod, the front end of the friction baffle 1030 is matched with the rear end of the vertical pushing plate 1025. The matching here means that when the vertical pushing plate 1025 moves backward, the rear end of the vertical pushing plate 1025 abuts against the front end of the friction baffle 1030 to drive the friction baffle 1030 to move backward to press the friction spring 1029. The rear end of the friction block 1027 is matched with the switch rod 10162. The matching here means that when the friction baffle 1030 moves backward, the friction block 1027 moves backward to abut against the front end of the switch rod 10162, so that the switch rod 10162 is locked by the friction block 1027.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 3 A telescopic air cylinder is further arranged at the right end of the connecting block 342. When the temperature sensor detects that the temperature of the die casting mold is too high, the telescopic air cylinder starts to work to drive the connecting block 342 to move right, so that the connecting sleeve 343 is separated from the sliding key of the driven shaft 32, and the driven shaft 32 is not rotated to drive the driven lead screw 4 to rotate when the cooling system works, so that the connecting block 342 continues to rotate to drive the die casting mold to rotate, and the movable part 5 and the spray gun 6 connected with the driven lead screw 4 are not moved.

[0055] Specifically, the transmission ratio of the driving shaft 31 and the driven shaft 32 is much greater than 1, and is always an integer multiple, that is, the driven shaft 32 rotates one circle, and the driving shaft 31 rotates more than one circle, for example, one circle, two circles, and so on. The driven shaft 32 and the connecting sleeve 343 are connected by a sliding key. The driven shaft 32 is provided with only one key groove, and the connecting sleeve 343 is also provided with only one spline. The purpose of the integer multiple design and the key groove and spline being provided with only one set is to enable the driving shaft 31 to rotate n times the number of circles when the key groove is re-aligned with the spline after the driven shaft 32 rotates n circles, so that the driving shaft 31 can drive the chuck 2 and the die casting mold to always return to the position of the nozzle 6 before cooling. The purpose of the transmission ratio being much greater than 1 is to provide more adjustment positions to meet the transmission ratio requirements of the driving shaft 31 and the driven shaft 32 when adjusting the length of the nozzle 6. The adjustment rod 81 can also be marked with multiple integer positions of the transmission ratio of the driving shaft 31 and the driven shaft 32 to facilitate the operator to adjust.

[0056] Working principle: When maintaining the die casting mold for producing non-ferrous metal parts, first place the die casting mold on the chuck 2, then clamp the bottom of the die casting mold with the chuck 2, and then adjust the distance between the nozzle 6 and the inner wall of the die casting mold according to the inner cavity radius of the die casting mold to ensure the quality of the plasma spraying. When adjusting the distance between the nozzle 6 and the inner cavity radius of the die casting mold, only the switching baffle 10163 needs to be actuated to move downward to press the switching elastic member 10164. The downward movement of the switching baffle 10163 drives the switching rod 10162 to move downward, so that the upper end of the switching rod 10162 is out of contact with the adjustment rod 81, the adjustment rod 81 is unlocked, and the lower end of the switching rod 10162 is in contact with the bottom of the synchronous limiting groove 1012, so that the lower end of the switching rod 10162 is locked with the synchronous connecting rod 1011 by friction. Then, the stabilizing block 10151 is inserted into the upper end of the switching baffle 10163 to keep the switching rod 10162 in this position. Finally, the fastening bolt on the synchronous block 9 is loosened to enable the synchronous block 9 to slide relative to the chassis 1.

[0057] When the position of the spray gun 6 needs to be adjusted according to the size of the inner diameter of the die casting mold, after the above preparation work is completed, the operator only needs to control the sliding of the adjusting sleeve 86 on the adjusting rod 81 to change the position of the spray gun 6 to extend, and at the same time, the transmission ratio of the driving shaft 31 and the driven shaft 32 is adjusted, so that the moving speed of the driven shaft 32 driving the spray gun 6 can be synchronized and adjusted, so that the spray gun 6 can always ensure that the plasma thermal spraying nozzle area will not overlap or be missing when plasma thermal spraying is performed on different inner diameter die casting molds, ensuring the comprehensiveness and uniformity of single spraying; Here, taking the die casting mold with a larger inner diameter as an example, after the above preparation work is completed, the operator only needs to move the adjusting sleeve 86 to the right, so that the adjusting sleeve 86 moves to the right and extrudes the adjusting chamfer 85, and pushes the adjusting block 83 forward along the adjusting chamfer 85, the adjusting block 83 moves forward to further extend the adjusting rod 81, until the spray gun 6 moves to the appropriate position of the die casting mold and stops; During the movement of the adjusting sleeve 86, the adjusting sleeve 86 will drive the synchronous limit rod 1015 and the switching rod 10162 to move synchronously to the right, the switching rod 10162 moves to drive the synchronous connecting rod 1011, the synchronous block 9, the driving rod 1013 and the driven rod 1014 to move to the right, so that the driving rod 1013 and the driven rod 1014 drive the moving driving cone 331 and the moving driven cone 334 to move to the right, so that the rotating radius of the steel belt 335 at the driving shaft 31 becomes smaller, and the rotating radius of the steel belt 335 at the driven shaft 32 becomes larger, so that in the subsequent operation of the permanent magnet synchronous motor, the speed of the driven shaft 32 becomes slower under the condition that the speed of the driving shaft 31, the chuck 2 and the die casting mold does not change, so that the speed of the connecting sleeve 343 and the driven lead screw 4 driven by the driven shaft 32 becomes slower, and finally the moving speed of the moving frame 51 connected with the driven lead screw 4 becomes slower, so that the moving speed of the spray gun 6 on the moving frame 51 can be relatively slow when spraying the die casting mold with a larger hole diameter, so as to achieve the effect of no missing or over-spraying in plasma thermal spraying.

[0058] After adjusting the position of the adjusting sleeve 86, the operator only needs to tighten the fastening bolt on the synchronization block 9 again to fix the synchronization block 9 with the chassis 1, then pull out the stabilizing block 10151 to move to the side of the switching baffle 10163, so that the switching baffle 10163 moves upward under the action of the switching elastic member 10164, and then the switching rod 10162 moves upward, the lower end of the switching rod 10162 is separated from the contact with the synchronization limiting groove 1012, and the upper end of the switching rod 10162 is in abutment and locking with the lower end of the adjusting rod 81, realizing the fixation of the position of the spray gun 6, at the same time, when the driven screw rod 4 drives the spray gun 6 to move, the switching rod 10162 will not rub with the synchronization limiting groove 1012 to affect the movement, then the operator opens the permanent magnet synchronous motor to drive the main shaft 31 to rotate, the main shaft 31 drives the chuck 2 and the die casting mold to rotate, and the main shaft 31 drives the driven shaft 32 to rotate under the transmission of the transmission, and then the connecting sleeve 343 and the driven screw rod 4 rotate to drive the spray gun 6 to move, realizing the rotation of the die casting mold and the movement of the spray gun 6 during the plasma thermal spraying, and realizing the spraying and maintenance of the inner wall of the die casting mold, when the spraying thickness is not enough once, the operator only needs to reverse the permanent magnet synchronous motor to make the spray gun 6 move in the opposite direction again, and the reciprocating multiple times can meet the demand of the spraying thickness, ensuring the stability and uniformity of the plasma thermal spraying, and the phenomenon of overlapping spraying or missing spraying does not occur, improving the spraying quality and ensuring the maintenance effect.

[0059] In the plasma thermal spraying of a larger or overall longer die casting mold, the die casting mold will accumulate more heat due to the longer spraying time, so when the die casting mold accumulates a certain amount of heat, it needs to be cooled in time. When the temperature of the die casting mold is too high, the temperature sensor on the chuck 2 will send a temperature abnormality signal, and the cooling system will start to work to cool the die casting mold by spraying compressed air. At the same time, the telescopic air cylinder starts to work to drive the connecting block 342 to move to the right, and the connecting block 342 drives the connecting sleeve 343 to move to the right, and the connecting sleeve 343 is disconnected from the slide key of the driven shaft 32, so that when the driven shaft 32 rotates, it cannot drive the connecting sleeve 343 to rotate, the driven screw 4 rotates, and further cannot drive the spray gun 6 to move; When the connecting block 342 moves to the right, the connecting block 342 will push the horizontal push block 1022 to the right, and the horizontal push block 1022 moves to the right and contacts the longitudinal push angle 10241, and pushes the longitudinal push block 1024 and the longitudinal push plate 1025 backward along the longitudinal push angle 10241. When the longitudinal push plate 1025 moves backward, the rear end of the longitudinal push plate 1025 will abut against the front end of the friction baffle 1030, and drive the friction baffle 1030 to move backward to extrude the friction elastic member 1029. When the friction baffle 1030 moves backward, it will drive the friction block 1027 to move backward, and the friction block 1027 moves backward and abuts against the front end of the switching rod 10162, thereby making the switching rod 10162 be abutted and locked by the friction block 1027, and finally realizing the locking of the left and right moving directions of the spray gun 6, and realizing that when the cooling system cools the die casting mold, the die casting mold can continue to rotate under the drive of the driving shaft 31, realizing omnidirectional cooling while making the spray gun 6 stop working and remain in the original position, facilitating re-spraying after cooling, and avoiding repeated spraying areas.

[0060] When the cooling is finished and the plasma thermal spraying of the die casting mold needs to be continued, because the switching rod 10162 is locked by the friction block 1027 during the cooling, and the synchronization block 9 is fixed on the base frame 1 by the fastening bolt, the upper end of the switching rod 10162 is always in contact with the adjusting rod 81, so that the synchronization block 9, the switching rod 10162, the adjusting rod 81, the spray gun 6, the adjusting frame and the driven screw rod 4 all remain in the fixed state, the driven screw rod 4 cannot rotate, and further the connecting sleeve 343 cannot rotate, so that the sliding key at the left end of the connecting sleeve 343 always remains at the position before the cooling. When the cooling is finished, the telescopic cylinder extends to the left to drive the connecting block 342 to move to the left, the connecting block 342 drives the connecting sleeve 343 to move to the left, when the connecting sleeve 343 moves to the left, the sliding key of the connecting sleeve 343 will abut against the right end surface of the driven shaft 32 first, at this time, the longitudinal push chamfer 10241 is still at the rear end of the horizontal push block 1022, and the longitudinal push plate 1025 still pushes the friction baffle 1030 to make the friction block 1027 lock with the switching rod 10162. When the driven shaft 32 rotates to make the key groove on the driven shaft 32 coincide with the sliding key of the connecting sleeve 343, the connecting sleeve 343 moves to the left along the key groove until the connecting block 342 is completely reset, at this time, the driven screw rod 4 resumes the rotation, and the horizontal push block 1022 also completely moves to the left end of the longitudinal push chamfer 10241, the longitudinal push block 1024, the longitudinal push plate 1025, the friction baffle 1030 and the friction block 1027 are reset forward under the action of the friction elastic member 1029, the friction block 1027 is separated from the contact with the switching rod 10162, and the switching rod 10162 is unlocked again, so that the spray gun 6 can continue to move leftward and rightward under the driving of the driven screw rod 4. The key groove on the driven shaft 32 and the spline on the connecting sleeve 343 are only provided with one, and the special design of the transmission ratio of the driving shaft 31 and the transmission shaft can make the connecting sleeve 343 be connected with the driven shaft 32 again, so that the die casting mold at the driving shaft 31 can always return to the position before the cooling of the spray gun 6, which is convenient for continuing the spraying, prevents the spraying area from being repeated when the spraying is continued, and can cool in time when the plasma thermal spraying is overheated, and can also ensure that the spray gun 6 can continue to spray at the position before the cooling after the cooling is finished, so that the continuity and uniformity of the plasma thermal spraying can be ensured, and the spraying quality is improved.
