[0031] In the following description, for purposes of explanation and not limitation, specific details are set forth, such as particular sequences of steps, techniques, etc., in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present embodiments. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present application can be practiced in other embodiments that depart from these specific details. In other instances, detailed descriptions of well-known methods, devices, and circuits are omitted so as not to obscure the description of the present application with unnecessary detail.
[0032] It is to be understood that the terminology "including," "includes," "has," and / or "have," when used in this specification, specifies the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and / or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and / or groups thereof.
[0033] It is also to be understood that the terminology and phraseology used herein is solely used for the purpose of description and not of limitation. As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular "a," "an," and "the" encompass the plural reference unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
[0034] In order to illustrate the technical solutions described in the present application, the following will be described through specific embodiments.
[0035] First, briefly explain the reason for the adhesion of the tungsten needle and the workpiece:
[0036] Before welding, the main power supply of the argon arc welding body 304 is in an open state, that is, the argon arc welding body 304 has an idle voltage output when the tungsten needle is not in contact with the workpiece, Figure 2 201 is the voltage waveform of the pull-arc argon arc welding, 202 is the current waveform of the pull-arc argon arc welding, and the PWM drive of the switch tube controlling the current output is usually the maximum pulse width at this time. To avoid burning of the tungsten needle due to excessive current when in contact, the contact short-circuit current is generally set to 10-25A, 203 is the control voltage signal output by the current regulator, and 204 is the PWM control signal corresponding to the control voltage signal output by the current regulator. The PI regulation of the current regulator usually has a certain lag, and the response time of the short-circuit processing is generally 1-2ms, that is, the time for the PWM drive to change from the maximum pulse width to the pulse width corresponding to 10-25A is 1-2ms. In this period of time, since the current has not changed to 10-25A, the short-circuit current will be very large, sometimes reaching more than 150A, which is the current overshoot, as shown in the current waveform 205 in Figure 2 Such a large current generates a large amount of heat when short-circuiting, causing the tungsten needle and the workpiece to melt at the contact position. When the current decreases to 10-25A, the molten metal cools and solidifies, causing the tungsten needle and the workpiece to adhere.
[0037] Referring to Figure 3 is a first structure diagram of the argon arc welding pull-arc anti-adhesion device provided by Embodiment One of the present application. For ease of illustration, only the parts related to the present application are shown.
[0038] The argon arc welding pull-arc anti-adhesion device comprises an auxiliary voltage output circuit 301, a short-circuit judgment circuit 302, and a current regulation circuit 303.
[0039] The auxiliary voltage output circuit 301 outputs a preset direct current voltage. The specific value of the direct current voltage is set according to actual needs. To ensure the accuracy of the subsequent short-circuit judgment and prevent the short-circuit misjudgment caused by the direct current voltage being set too low, the direct current voltage should not be set too low. In the present embodiment, the value of the direct current voltage can be 15V. The voltage output end of the auxiliary voltage output circuit 301 is connected to the output end of the argon arc welding body 304 (i.e. the positive and negative output ends of the argon arc welding body 304), and outputs the direct current voltage to the output end of the argon arc welding body 304, so that the output end of the argon arc welding body 304 outputs the 15V direct current. The auxiliary voltage output circuit 301 can be a specific circuit structure or a power supply chip with a direct current voltage output function.
[0040] The short-circuit judgment circuit 302 is used for detecting the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 304, and setting a voltage threshold value which is less than the direct current voltage output by the auxiliary voltage output circuit 301. The specific value of the voltage threshold value is set according to the actual situation. In the embodiment, the voltage threshold value can be set to 5V. The voltage threshold value is used for judging the size of the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 304 and the voltage threshold value, and then judging whether the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 304 contacts the workpiece according to the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 304. Specifically, when the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 304 does not contact the workpiece, the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 304 does not short-circuit with the workpiece, and the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 304 is 15V, which is greater than the voltage threshold value 5V; when the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 304 contacts the workpiece, the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 304 short-circuits with the workpiece, and the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 304 will be greatly reduced, which will be less than 5V. Therefore, when the short-circuit judgment circuit 302 detects that the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 304 is greater than 5V, it is determined that the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 304 does not contact the workpiece; when the short-circuit judgment circuit 302 detects that the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 304 is less than 5V, it is determined that the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 304 contacts the workpiece. The short-circuit judgment circuit 302 can include a comparator for comparing the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 304 and the voltage threshold value, thereby outputting a corresponding signal; it can also be a specific comparison circuit or a data processing chip, which realizes voltage comparison through internal software programs corresponding to voltage comparison functions.
[0041] The current regulation circuit 303 is connected with the output end of the short-circuit judgment circuit 302. The current regulation circuit 303 controls the current output according to the judgment result of whether the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 304 contacts the workpiece judged by the short-circuit judgment circuit 302. Specifically, when the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 304 does not contact the workpiece, the current regulation circuit 303 has no output; when the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 304 contacts the workpiece, the current regulation circuit 303 outputs a control signal, which is used to make the current output by the output end of the argon arc welding body 304 start from zero and gradually increase, thereby avoiding overshoot. Therefore, the control signal can be output to the switching device in the main circuit of the argon arc welding body 304. The current regulation circuit 303 can be a conventional current regulator, which outputs a controllable control signal; it can also include a current regulator and a PWM controller; it can also be a control chip with regulation function.
[0042] Referring to Figure 4 , it is the second structure schematic diagram of the argon arc welding pulling arc and anti-sticking device provided by the embodiment one of the present application. For the convenience of description, only the parts related to the embodiment of the present application are shown.
[0043] The argon arc welding pulling arc sticking prevention device comprises an auxiliary voltage output circuit 401, a short circuit judgment circuit 402 and a current adjusting circuit. The current adjusting circuit comprises a current adjuster 403 and a PWM controller 404.
[0044] The auxiliary voltage output circuit 401 outputs a preset direct current voltage. The specific value of the direct current voltage is set according to actual needs. However, in order to ensure the accuracy of subsequent short circuit judgment and prevent short circuit misjudgment caused by setting the direct current voltage too low, the direct current voltage should not be set too low. In the embodiment, the value of the direct current voltage can be 15V. The voltage output end of the auxiliary voltage output circuit 401 is connected to the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 (i.e. the positive and negative output ends of the argon arc welding body 405), and outputs the direct current voltage to the output end of the argon arc welding body 405, so that the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 outputs the 15V direct current.
[0045] The short circuit judgment circuit 402 is used to detect the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 and set a voltage threshold value. The voltage threshold value is less than the direct current voltage output by the auxiliary voltage output circuit 401. The specific value of the voltage threshold value is set according to actual conditions. In the embodiment, the voltage threshold value can be set to 5V. The voltage threshold value is used to judge the size of the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 and the voltage threshold value, and then judge whether the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 405 is in contact with the workpiece according to the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405. Specifically, when the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 405 is not in contact with the workpiece, the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 405 is not short-circuited with the workpiece, and the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 is 15V, which is greater than the voltage threshold value 5V. When the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 405 is in contact with the workpiece, the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 405 is short-circuited with the workpiece, and the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 will be greatly reduced and will be less than 5V. Therefore, when the short circuit judgment circuit 402 detects that the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 is greater than 5V, it is determined that the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 405 is not in contact with the workpiece. When the short circuit judgment circuit 402 detects that the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 is less than 5V, it is determined that the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 405 is in contact with the workpiece.
[0046] The output end of the short circuit judgment circuit 402 is connected to the output end of the current adjuster 403, the output end of the current adjuster 403 is connected to the input end of the PWM controller 404, and the output end of the PWM controller 404 is connected to the argon arc welding body 405.
[0047] When the short-circuit judging circuit 402 judges that the argon arc welding body 405 is not in contact with the workpiece, the short-circuit judging circuit 402 controls the current regulator 403 to output nothing, so that the control voltage output by the current regulator 403 is 0V; when the short-circuit judging circuit 402 judges that the argon arc welding body 405 is in contact with the workpiece, the short-circuit judging circuit 402 controls the control voltage output by the current regulator 403 to gradually increase from 0V, and the control voltage increases to the normal output in about 5ms, and the current regulator 403 outputs the control voltage to the PWM controller 404, the PWM controller 404 outputs the PWM control signal, the duty cycle of the PWM control signal corresponds to the control voltage output by the current regulator 403, the higher the control voltage, the greater the duty cycle, so that the output current of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 also gradually increases from 0A (up to about 10A), thereby avoiding overshoot.
[0048] Figure 5 A specific circuit structure of the auxiliary voltage output circuit 401 is given. As shown in Figure 5 , the auxiliary voltage output circuit 401 includes a rectifier 501, a relay, a power supply switch 502 and a power supply loop. The AC side of the rectifier 501 is used to connect an AC power supply, in this embodiment, the AC side of the rectifier 501 is connected to the power supply interface 505, and the power supply interface 505 is connected to the AC power supply. The DC side of the rectifier 501 is connected to one end of the contact switch 503 of the relay, and the other end of the contact switch 503 of the relay is the output end of the auxiliary voltage output circuit 401. One end of the power supply loop is connected to a power supply, in this embodiment, the power supply is taken as an example of +5V, and the other end is grounded. The power supply switch 502 and the control coil 504 of the relay are connected in series in the power supply loop. In this embodiment, the power supply switch 502 is an electrically controlled electronic switching device, such as a triode or a MOS tube. The control end of the power supply switch 502 is used to input a control instruction, such as connecting the IO port VRDCtrl of a single-chip microcomputer, and the single-chip microcomputer outputs the control instruction to control whether to output the auxiliary voltage. In order to protect the power supply switch 502, a resistor 506 is arranged at the control end of the power supply switch 502, and a resistor 507 is arranged between the control end of the power supply switch 502 and the ground. In order to protect the control coil 504 of the relay, the control coil 504 of the relay is connected in antiparallel with a diode 508. The DC side of the rectifier 501 is provided with a filter capacitor 509 and a resistor 510. The output end of the auxiliary voltage output circuit 401 is also provided with a resistor 512 and a resistor 513. The output end of the auxiliary voltage output circuit 401 is used to connect the output end of the argon arc welding body 405.
[0049] As Figure 6As shown, the short-circuit judging circuit 402 comprises a first comparator 601, a first operational amplifier 602 and a second operational amplifier 603. A preset reference voltage Us is input to the non-inverting input terminal of the first operational amplifier 602. In the embodiment, the preset reference voltage Us is input to the non-inverting input terminal of the first operational amplifier 602 through a resistor 604, and the non-inverting input terminal of the first operational amplifier 602 is grounded through a capacitor 605. The inverting input terminal of the first operational amplifier 602 is connected to the output terminal of the first operational amplifier 602, and the output terminal of the first operational amplifier 602 is connected to the non-inverting input terminal of the first comparator 601. In the embodiment, the output terminal of the first operational amplifier 602 is connected to the non-inverting input terminal of the first comparator 601 through a resistor 606. The non-inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier 603 is used to connect the output terminal of the argon arc welding body 405 to input the actual voltage Uf (the actual voltage is the feedback voltage) of the output terminal of the argon arc welding body 405. In the embodiment, the actual voltage Uf is input to the non-inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier 603 through a resistor 607, and the non-inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier 603 is grounded through a capacitor 608. The inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier 603 is connected to the output terminal of the second operational amplifier 603, and the output terminal of the second operational amplifier 603 is connected to the inverting input terminal of the first comparator 601. In the embodiment, the output terminal of the second operational amplifier 603 is connected to the inverting input terminal of the first comparator 601 through a resistor 609.
[0050] The short-circuit judging circuit 402 further comprises a charging capacitor 610 and a pull-up resistor 611. One end of the charging capacitor 610 is connected to the output terminal of the first comparator 601, and the other end of the charging capacitor 610 is grounded. The output terminal of the first comparator 601 is connected to a power supply VCC through the pull-up resistor 611. In the embodiment, the power supply VCC is taken as +15V as an example.
[0051] The power supply of the first comparator 601 is +15V, which is connected to the positive power supply terminal of the first comparator 601. The positive power supply terminal of the first comparator 601 is grounded through a capacitor 612, and the negative power supply terminal of the first comparator 601 is grounded. The power supplies of the first operational amplifier 602 and the second operational amplifier 603 are +15V and -15V. In the second operational amplifier 603 (the same as the first operational amplifier 602), +15V is connected to the positive power supply terminal of the second operational amplifier 603, the positive power supply terminal of the second operational amplifier 603 is grounded through a capacitor 614, -15V is connected to the negative power supply terminal of the second operational amplifier 603, and the negative power supply terminal of the second operational amplifier 603 is grounded through a capacitor 613. The output terminal of the first comparator 601 is the output terminal JTL of the short-circuit judging circuit 402, which is used to output a judging signal. According to the level of the judging signal, it is judged whether the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 405 is in contact with the workpiece.
[0052] In the above description, the first operational amplifier 602 is used to amplify the preset reference voltage Us, and the second operational amplifier 603 is used to amplify the actual voltage Uf. The amplified voltage signal can improve the reliability of the voltage comparison. Those skilled in the art should know that if it is not necessary to amplify the voltage signal, the first operational amplifier 602 and the second operational amplifier 603 may not be required.

The current setpoint signal Is is input to the inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier 620 through the first resistor 621. The current feedback signal If (i.e., the current at the output terminal of the main circuit of the argon arc welding body 405) is input to the inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier 620 through the second resistor 622. The non-inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier 620 is grounded. The third resistor 623 and the capacitor 624 are connected in series to form a series branch. One end of this series branch is connected to the inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier 620, and the other end is connected to the output terminal of the second operational amplifier 620. The output terminal of the second operational amplifier 620 is connected to one end of the fourth resistor 626. The other end of the fourth resistor 626 is connected to one end of the fifth resistor 627. The other end of the fifth resistor 627 is grounded. The fifth resistor 627 and the second capacitor 628 are connected in parallel.
[0054] The current regulation circuit also includes a unidirectional conducting device 631. The unidirectional conducting device 631 can be a single diode, multiple diodes connected in parallel / series, or a combination circuit of diodes and other components. The connection point of the fourth resistor 626 and the fifth resistor 627 is connected to the input terminal of the unidirectional conducting device 631, i.e., the anode of the diode. The output terminal JTL of the short-circuit detection circuit 402 is connected to the output terminal of the unidirectional conducting device 631, i.e., the cathode of the diode. The connection point of the fourth resistor 626 and the fifth resistor 627 is the output terminal UT of the current regulator 403.

Full-bridge rectifier circuit 801 is a controllable full-bridge circuit or an uncontrollable full-bridge circuit, and full-bridge inverter circuit 802 is composed of four switching tubes. The switching tubes in full-bridge inverter circuit 802 of the main circuit of argon arc welding body 405 are driven by the PWM control signals output by the PWM control signal output terminal of current module PWM controller 701, and the duty ratio of the PWM control signals determines the current and voltage of the output terminal of argon arc welding body 405. The main circuit of argon arc welding body 405 belongs to a conventional circuit, and the present application is not limited to Figure 8The specific circuit structure is shown. Figure 8 Ic in the equation (1) is Figure 7 Ic in the equation (1) is Figure 8 If in the equation (1) is Figure 6 If in the equation (1) is
[0058] The maximum current of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 is set to 10A.
[0059] The auxiliary voltage output circuit 401 outputs a 15V direct current voltage. When the output end of the first comparator 601 of the short circuit judgment circuit 402 is a low level signal, it indicates that the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 is greater than 5V, and it is determined that the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 405 is not in contact with the workpiece. Since the output end of the first comparator 601 is a low level signal, the output end UT of the current regulator 403 does not output (i.e., the output control voltage is 0V), and the PWM control signal output end of the current module PWM controller 701 does not output the PWM control signal. At this time, the main circuit of the argon arc welding body 405 does not output. When the output end of the first comparator 601 of the short circuit judgment circuit 402 is a high level signal, it indicates that the voltage of the output end of the argon arc welding body 405 is less than 5V, and it is determined that the tungsten needle of the argon arc welding body 405 is in contact with the workpiece. Since the output end of the first comparator 601 is a high level signal, the output end UT of the current regulator 403 and +15V begin to charge the charging capacitor 610, and the output end UT of the current regulator 403 begins to output. Since the charging capacitor 610 has a certain charging time, the control voltage output by the output end UT of the current regulator 403 gradually increases from 0V to the normal output. The time is about 5ms, and the control voltage increases to the normal output, indicating that the charging of the charging capacitor 610 is completed. The duty cycle of the PWM control signal output by the PWM control signal output end of the current module PWM controller 701 gradually increases from 0 to the duty cycle corresponding to 10A. The time is greater than 2ms, and the current output by the main circuit of the argon arc welding body 405 to the output end gradually increases from 0A to 10A, so that overshoot does not occur.
