Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] As a key equipment in the process of petroleum exploitation and processing, the cylindrical shell of a petroleum separator is usually welded by multiple cylinder segments, a head and a flange, and the welding quality directly affects the sealing performance, structural strength and service life of the separator. Since the welding positions of the cylindrical shell involve multiple forms such as circumferential welds, longitudinal welds and variable-angle interface welds, and the shell has a large size and heavy weight, the existing tools are mostly designed with fixed angles or can only realize limited angle turning, and thus cannot adapt to the welding requirements of different orientations and different inclinations. For special conditions such as the oblique welds between the end of the shell and the head and the misaligned welds when the cylinder segments are connected, the shell needs to be disassembled and adjusted multiple times, which is complicated and has low positioning accuracy. Meanwhile, the existing tools are usually designed for specific specifications of the cylindrical shell, and when the diameter and length of the shell change, the entire tool needs to be replaced or complicated modification is required, which has poor universality, increases production cost and operation cycle, and during multi-angle welding, the turning and fixing of the shell rely on manual assistance, which is labor-intensive and may cause the shell to shake or fall due to locking failure of the tool, thus posing a safety hazard. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a welding tool with precise and flexible angle adjustment, stable and reliable positioning, strong adaptability and safe operation to solve the technical problems in the welding process of the cylindrical shell of the petroleum separator.

[0022] In the application, the driving assembly comprises a driving motor 111 fixedly connected with the bottom of the balance frame 401, the output end of the driving motor 111 is fixedly connected with a second belt pulley 112, one side of the bidirectional threaded rod 101 is fixedly connected with a first belt pulley 110 at the position corresponding to the second belt pulley 112, the same belt 113 is in transmission connection with the outside of the first belt pulley 110 and the second belt pulley 112, a through hole is formed in the balance frame 401 at the position corresponding to the belt 113, and the belt 113 is movably sleeved in the through hole, the driving motor 111 is started to drive the rotation of the second belt pulley 112, and at the same time, the first belt pulley 110 is driven to rotate synchronously through the belt 113, so as to drive the rotation of the bidirectional threaded rod 101.

[0023] In the application, the bottoms of the two fixing frames 109 are fixedly connected with support frames 5 respectively, the mobile control box 6 and the electric welding control box 7 are fixedly connected on the two support frames 5 respectively, the electric welding control box 7 is electrically connected with the welding gun body 8, the two sides of the two support frames 5 are rotationally connected with mobile wheels respectively, the mobile control box 6 is electrically connected with the mobile wheels and the extrusion sensing block 105 respectively, is fixedly connected with the balance frame 401 at one end of the one side support frame 5, the mobile control box 6 is used for moving control of the mobile wheels, so that the whole equipment is automatically moved to the welding area, and the support mechanism 1 is electrically controlled, and the electric welding control box 7 is used for working control of the welding gun body 8.

[0024] Working principle: the operator inputs the diameter, length and welding seam type (longitudinal, circumferential or arc) parameters of the shell to be welded through the mobile control box 6, and the PLC control system built in the mobile control box presets the operation threshold values (such as the extension distance of the support block and the welding gun moving speed) of each mechanism according to the parameters; Automatic positioning action control: After the completion of the instruction input, the mobile control box sends a driving signal to the moving wheels on both sides of the support frame 5, and the moving wheels drive the entire tooling to move along the preset track (or ground guide mark) to the port of the shell to be welded, until the storage bin 106 of the support mechanism 1 is aligned with the shell port, the moving wheels are automatically locked, and the initial positioning of the tooling is completed. It is worth mentioning that: the core function of the support mechanism 1 is to adaptively clamp and support the two ends of the welding area from the inside of the shell, ensuring that the shell does not displace and the welding surface remains horizontal during welding. The specific action process is as follows: Drive power transmission; The PLC sends a start signal to the drive motor 111, and the output shaft of the drive motor 111 drives the second pulley 112 to rotate. Through the friction force transmission of the belt 113, the first pulley 110 at one end of the bidirectional threaded rod 101 is driven to rotate synchronously, finally realizing the rotation of the bidirectional threaded rod 101 (the bearing sleeve 108 cooperates with the fixed frame 109 to ensure that the bidirectional threaded rod 101 only rotates without axial movement).

[0025] Support block 104 self-adapting extension; The two ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 101 are reversely threaded, and when it rotates, it drives the two first moving blocks 102 at the ends to move in opposite directions along the rod body (toward the inner wall of the shell). The first moving block 102 drives the arrayed traction plates 103 to flip around the hinge point through the pin shaft, and the traction plates 103 push the support blocks 104 to slide out along the inner wall of the storage bin 106.

[0026] During this process, the first limiting plate 107 on one side of the support block 104 slides along the limiting block 114 inside the storage bin 106 (the limiting groove 115 cooperates with the limiting block 114), limiting the support block 104 to only do radial linear motion, avoiding the support from being unstable due to force deviation.

[0027] Pressure feedback and automatic locking; When the extrusion sensing block 105 outside the support block 104 contacts the inner wall of the shell, the pressure sensor built-in the extrusion sensing block 105 collects real-time contact pressure data and converts the analog signal into a digital signal transmitted to the mobile control box 6. When the pressure value reaches the preset threshold value (such as 0.8MPa, ensuring that the support is stable and does not damage the inner wall of the shell), the mobile control box 6 immediately sends a stop signal to the drive motor 111, and the bidirectional threaded rod 101 stops rotating. The support block 104 maintains the current extension length, achieving rigid balanced support of the two ends of the welding area inside the shell.

[0028] Spacing adjustment mechanism 2: precise alignment of the welding gun and the welding point The function of the spacing adjustment mechanism 2 is to adjust the spatial position of the transverse welding mechanism 3 according to the distance between the welding point and the center of the tooling, so that the welding nozzle of the welding gun body 8 precisely abuts the welding point. The action principle is as follows: Power input and swing arm transmission The PLC sends an extension signal to the hydraulic push rod motor 209 according to the preset weld position parameters, the piston rod of the hydraulic push rod motor 209 extends and retracts along the axial direction, pushes the mounting frame 301 (the carrier of the transverse welding mechanism) fixedly connected thereto to move, and simultaneously drives the fixed blocks 203 at both ends of the linkage plate 202 to move synchronously; The fixed blocks 203 drive the lifting swing arm 204 to overturn around the hinge point through the pin shaft, and the lifting swing arm 204 pushes the push block 205 to slide along the slide rod 206 (the slide rod 206 is fixed at both ends of the connecting plate 207, and the connecting plate 207 is rigidly connected with the mounting frame 301); Balance compensation and stable adjustment; When the push block 205 slides, the limiting spring 208 on one side thereof will extend and retract according to the force condition: when the pushing force of the hydraulic push rod motor 209 is too large, the limiting spring 208 is compressed to buffer the impact force of the push block 205; When the pushing force decreases, the limiting spring 208 resets to ensure that the push block 205 is always in close contact with the lifting swing arm 204, so as to avoid adjustment errors caused by gaps.

[0029] During this process, the sliding cooperation of the slide rod 206 and the push block 205 limits the mounting frame 301 to only make linear motion perpendicular to the axial direction of the bidirectional screw rod 101, ensures that the moving direction of the welding gun body 8 is consistent with the normal direction of the weld, and finally realizes the preliminary alignment of the welding nozzle of the welding gun body 8 and the welding point (with an error controlled within ±0.5 mm).

[0030] Transverse welding mechanism 3: automatic welding of longitudinal welds; The transverse welding mechanism 3 is responsible for driving the welding gun body 8 to move along the axial direction of the shell to complete the welding of longitudinal welds (such as the axial welds of the joint of the cylinder segments), and the action logic and transmission details are as follows: Welding gun body 8 clamping and initial positioning; The welding gun body 8 is fixed on the second moving block 303 through the clamping assembly 309, the elastic clamp built-in the clamping assembly 309 can adapt to the diameters of different models of welding guns, and is locked through bolts to ensure that the welding gun does not loosen during welding; The electric welding control box 7 sends a preheating signal to the welding gun body 8, and the nozzle temperature of the welding gun body 8 rises to the required temperature for welding (such as 800-1000℃ for arc welding), and the preparation before welding is completed.

[0031] Transverse movement and weld forming; The PLC sends a forward / reverse signal to the first motor 307. The output shaft of the first motor 307 drives the first drive gear 308 to rotate. Through gear meshing, the driven gear 306 at one end of the threaded rod 302 rotates, thereby causing the threaded rod 302 to rotate inside the mounting bracket 301 (the two ends of the threaded rod 302 are positioned by deep groove ball bearings to ensure smooth rotation).

[0032] The second moving block 303 on the threaded rod 302 moves axially along the threaded rod 302 due to the thread engagement. At the same time, the balance bar 305 on one side of the second moving block 303 slides along the moving groove of the second limiting plate 304, restricting the second moving block 303 to only make linear motion (to prevent it from rotating with the threaded rod 302), ensuring that the welding torch body 8 moves at a uniform speed along the weld seam trajectory (the moving speed can be adjusted by the speed of the first motor 307, ranging from 0.5 to 2 m / min, to adapt to the welding requirements of shells of different thicknesses).

[0033] The welding control box 7 synchronously sends welding signals to the welding torch body 8, and the welding torch body 8 continuously outputs electric arc and welding wire, completing the continuous welding of the longitudinal weld seam as the second moving block 303 moves.

[0034] Circumferential Welding Mechanism 4: Automated Welding of Circumferential / Circular Arc Welds The circumferential welding mechanism 4 drives the welding torch body 8 to rotate around the central axis of the shell, thereby achieving circumferential welds (such as the butt welds between the cylinder section and the head) or arc welds. The linkage logic between its action and the transverse welding mechanism is as follows: Rotational power transmission; According to the weld type (circumferential / arc), the PLC sends a start signal to the second motor 402. Its output shaft drives the second drive gear 403 to rotate, and through gear meshing, it drives the gear ring 404 on the outside of the linkage sleeve 201 to rotate (the linkage sleeve 201 is connected to the balance frame 401 through the thrust bearing to ensure that the gear ring 404 only rotates and does not move axially).

[0035] The linkage sleeve 201 is rigidly connected to the linkage plate 202 of the spacing adjustment mechanism. Therefore, the rotation of the gear ring 404 will drive the spacing adjustment mechanism 2, the transverse welding mechanism 3 and the welding torch body 8 to rotate around the axis of the bidirectional threaded rod 101 (which coincides with the central axis of the housing), forming the circular motion trajectory of the welding torch body 8.

[0036] Multi-dimensional weld seam co-forming If welding a pure circumferential weld (such as the butt joint between the shell end and the head): the second motor 402 rotates at a constant speed, the welding torch body 8 only makes a circular motion, and the welding control box 7 controls the output parameters of the welding torch body 8 to remain stable, forming a uniform circumferential weld. If the welding arc weld (such as the transition weld at the variable diameter inside the shell): PLC synchronous control of the second motor 402 (circular motion) and the first motor 307 (lateral movement), so that the movement trajectory of the welding gun body 8 is a composite curve of "circumferential + axial", and at the same time, through the distance adjusting mechanism 2, the distance between the welding gun body 8 and the weld is adjusted in real time, ensuring that the curvature of the arc weld is consistent with the variable diameter of the shell, avoiding defects such as undercutting and incomplete fusion.

[0037] Welding is completed and the tool is reset; When the welding gun body 8 moves to the preset weld end point, the second moving block 303 of the transverse welding mechanism 3 (or the gear ring 404 of the circumferential welding mechanism 4) triggers the travel switch, sends a "welding complete" signal to the PLC, and the electric welding control box 7 immediately cuts off the output of the welding gun body 8 arc and welding wire, and the welding gun body 8 stops working and starts cooling.

[0038] Mechanism reset action; PLC controls each mechanism to reset in "reverse order": first, the hydraulic push rod motor 209 piston rod retracts, driving the push block 205 of the distance adjusting mechanism 2 to reset, and the welding gun body 8 separates from the inner wall of the shell; Second, the drive motor 111 is reversed, the bidirectional threaded rod 101 drives the first moving block 102 to move in reverse, and the support block 104 is retracted into the storage compartment 106; Finally, the moving wheel is unlocked, the tool exits the shell port along the original path, and a welding cycle is completed.

[0039] The above is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, any person skilled in the art can make equivalent replacement or change according to the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present application within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
