When the present embodiment is working, the main reinforcement is preset in advance at the position on the inner ring where welding is required, and the main reinforcement fixing device A fixes the main reinforcement at the preset position so that the inner ring is within the detectable range of the inner ring position detection mechanism 9. Since the welding gun chuck 6 and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 are also arranged on the machine head body, when the main reinforcement fixing device A fixes the main reinforcement, the positions of the welding gun chuck 6 and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 in the front-to-back direction and the up-to-down direction relative to the main reinforcement can be directly and unambiguously determined. At the same time, the positions of the welding gun chuck 6 and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 in the front-to-back direction and the up-to-down direction relative to the welding point where the main reinforcement contacts the inner ring can also be directly and unambiguously determined. When the welding gun is installed, the welding gun chuck 6 can first preset the position of the welding gun in the up-to-down direction and the front-to-back direction. The welding gun chuck 6 and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 can cooperate with each other to move left and right, that is, the welding gun chuck 6 and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 only need to find the welding point position where the main reinforcement contacts the inner ring from the left and right directions, and then the welding point position of the main reinforcement and the inner ring can be welded; here, "the welding gun chuck 6 cooperates with the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 to be movably arranged on the head body along the left and right directions" means that the welding gun chuck 6 can follow the inner ring position detection mechanism 9, or the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 can follow the welding gun chuck 6, or the welding gun chuck 6 and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 can move synchronously. When the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 touches the inner ring during the movement, it means that the welding point position of the main reinforcement and the inner ring is also found from the left and right directions. At this time, the welding gun installed on the welding gun chuck 6 also cooperates to find the position of the welding point, and the welding gun installed on the welding gun chuck 6 is started to weld the main reinforcement and the inner ring at the welding point position.

[0036] like Figure 1-4As shown, a welding machine head for welding the inner ring of a steel cage and the main reinforcement includes a welding gun chuck 6, a horizontal base 1301 for mounting the welding gun chuck 6, a main reinforcement fixing block 8 and an inner ring position detection mechanism 9 arranged on the horizontal base 1301, and also includes a first driving device and a second driving device arranged in the machine head body, the first driving device is used to drive the main reinforcement fixing block 8 to move up and down in the vertical direction, the second driving device is used to drive the main reinforcement fixing block 8 to move in the front and rear direction, and also includes a second mounting plate 11 for mounting a main reinforcement support block 10, the main reinforcement fixing block 8 and the main reinforcement support block 10 cooperate with each other to fix the main reinforcement, and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 is used to detect the contact position between the inner ring and the main reinforcement. When the present embodiment is working, when the main reinforcement is preset above the inner ring, the welding gun is installed on the welding gun chuck 6, and the welding head moves toward the direction of the main reinforcement. The main reinforcement support block 10 is first moved to the bottom of the main reinforcement, and then the main reinforcement fixing block 8, under the action of the first driving device and the second driving device, the main reinforcement fixing block 8 buckles the main reinforcement, and then presses the main reinforcement onto the main reinforcement support block 10, and then the welding head, under the action of the inner ring position detection mechanism 9, welds the contact part between the main reinforcement and the inner ring; during the whole welding process, the main reinforcement fixing block 8 and the main reinforcement support block 10 firmly fit the main reinforcement to the inner ring, the welding point between the main reinforcement and the inner ring is stable, and the welding quality is good.

[0037] Furthermore, two main reinforcement fixing blocks 8 are arranged on the horizontal base 1301, and the two main reinforcement fixing blocks 8 are respectively located on both sides of the horizontal base 1301, and the welding gun chuck 6 and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 are located between the two main reinforcement fixing blocks 8, and the welding gun chuck 6 and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 can slide left and right on the horizontal base 1301; the number of the second mounting plates 11 is two, and the two second mounting plates 11 are respectively located on the outside of the main reinforcement fixing blocks 8, and each second mounting plate 11 is provided with a main reinforcement support block 10, and the two main reinforcement fixing blocks 8 are located between the two main reinforcement support blocks 10, and a main reinforcement support block 10 and a main reinforcement fixing block 8 cooperate with each other to fix the main reinforcement. In this embodiment, the welding gun chuck 6, the main reinforcement fixing block 8, the inner ring position detection mechanism 9, and the main reinforcement support block 10 are facing the same side, all facing the direction where the main reinforcement is located.

[0038] Embodiment 2:

[0039] like Figure 1-3A welding machine head for welding the inner ring of a steel cage and main bars is shown. Based on Example 1, the first driving device is connected to the upper and lower bases 1202 to drive the upper and lower bases 1202 to move in the up and down direction; the second driving device includes a driving connection with the horizontal base 1301 to drive the horizontal base 1301 to move in the front and back direction. The second driving device drives the horizontal base 1301 to move, thereby driving the main bar fixing block 8 set on the horizontal base 1301 to move in the front and back direction. In this embodiment, the upper and lower bases 1202 adopt a slide rail design, the first driving device is the upper and lower cylinders 1203, the upper and lower cylinders 1203 are installed on the machine head body through the vertical base 1201, the upper and lower bases 1202 are connected to the output ends of the upper and lower cylinders 1203, and the upper and lower bases 1202 are "T"-shaped structures, consisting of two flat plates. The horizontal base 1301 and the upper and lower bases 1202 adopt a slide rail design, and the number of main bar fixing blocks 8 is 2, which are respectively located on both sides of the horizontal base 1301.

[0040] It also includes a welding gun swinging device and a detection mechanism swinging device arranged on the horizontal base 1301. The welding gun swinging device is used to control the swing of the welding gun chuck 6, and the detection mechanism swinging device is used to control the swing of the inner ring position detection mechanism 9.

[0041] The horizontal base 1301 is a "U"-shaped structure that is flipped 90 degrees and then turned upside down. A slide groove is opened on the side located at the upper relative position, and a welding gun swing device and a detection mechanism swing device are provided on the side located at the lower relative position. At the same time, the bottom of the welding gun chuck 6 is connected to the welding gun swing device through the slide groove, and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 is connected to the detection mechanism swing device through the slide groove.

[0042] Furthermore, the welding gun swing device includes a welding gun swing cylinder 14, and the welding gun chuck 6 is slidably connected to the horizontal base 1301. The welding gun swing cylinder 14 can drive the welding gun chuck 6 to move left and right along the horizontal base 1301. The detection mechanism swing device includes a detection swing cylinder 15, and the output shaft of the detection swing cylinder 15 is connected to the inner ring position detection mechanism 9.

[0043] Furthermore, the welding gun chuck 6 can follow the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 to determine the welding point position of the inner ring of the steel cage skeleton and the main reinforcement. The welding gun chuck 6 also includes a slot connector 1305 with a slot portion, and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 also includes a block connector 1306 with a block portion, and the slot of the slot connector 1305 is matched with the block of the block connector 1306; the slot connector 1305 and the block connector 1306 are movably arranged on the horizontal base 1301; the above structure allows the position of the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 to move in coordination with the position of the inner ring position detection mechanism 9, that is, when detecting the welding point position of the inner ring and the main reinforcement, the detection swing cylinder 15 drives the position detection mechanism 9 to move toward the inner ring. First, the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 will push the welding gun chuck 6 to slide on the horizontal base 1301, and when When the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 touches the inner ring within its travel range, it indicates the position of the detection welding point. Since the welding gun chuck 6 is provided with an adjustment block, the relative position of the welding gun and the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 can be pre-adjusted. When the inner ring position detection mechanism 9 detects the welding point position, it means that the welding gun installed on the welding gun chuck 6 also synchronously, quickly and accurately finds the welding point position of the inner ring and the main reinforcement. The welding point position found here is the welding starting point; then, the welding gun starts to start welding. At the same time, the welding gun swing cylinder 14 starts to work, driving the welding gun chuck 6 equipped with the welding gun to move left and right along the horizontal base 1301, so that the welding gun continues to move from the welding starting point on one side of the inner ring to the welding end point on the other side of the inner ring until the welding is completed. The above welding head structure increases the welding area between the inner ring and the main reinforcement, makes the welding more solid, greatly improves the welding quality, and at the same time, greatly improves the production efficiency compared with manual welding.

[0044] Further, such as Figure 5 As shown, a space is formed between the block portion of the block connector 1306 and the slot portion of the slot connector 1305, which allows the slot connector 1305 to move relative to the block connector 1306; the welding gun installed on the welding gun chuck 6 can move continuously from the welding starting point on one side of the inner ring to the welding end point on the other side of the inner ring only within the moving range of the movable space, which can not only increase the effective welding area, but also avoid ineffective over-welding, so as to prevent the welding gun from continuing to work after welding the contact welding point between the inner ring and the main reinforcement, leaving unnecessary burns on the main reinforcement, and effectively avoiding waste of resources.

[0045] Embodiment 3:

[0046] like Figure 4A welding head for welding the inner ring of a steel cage and the main reinforcement is shown. Based on Example 1, this embodiment is further provided with a third driving device, and the third driving device includes a sliding base 1601, a forward motor 1602, and a guide shaft 1603. The forward motor 1602 is connected to the guide shaft 1603 through a transmission block 1605. The guide shaft 1603 is installed on the sliding base 1601 through a guide slider 1604. One end of the guide shaft 1603 is connected to the vertical base 1201. The forward motor 1602 is used to drive the entire structure to move in the front and rear directions.

The output end of the thrust cylinder is connected to the transmission block 1605, and the thrust cylinder is used for the screw rod buffer, that is, the screw rod rotates to push the machine head forward as a whole, and one is needed. Furthermore, the thrust cylinder can also be replaced by a spring.

[0047] During normal operation, the position detection cylinder remains in the pushed-out state, and the third drive device drives the machine head to move forward as a whole. When the main reinforcement fixed at the front end of the machine head contacts the inner ring of the steel cage frame, the motor continues to work to keep driving the overall structure forward. The main reinforcement fixed at the front end of the overall structure is blocked by the inner ring of the steel cage frame. When the motor screw continues to rotate, it will drive the guide slider 1605 to retreat, thereby compressing the one-way cylinder piston rod to make it retreat. At this time, the position detection switch on the cylinder detects the retreat action of the moving guide slider 1605 or the piston rod, and the position detection switch generates a signal to the control system. The system thereby determines that the third drive propulsion has reached the required position, and the system controls the third drive device to stop propulsion. The function of the position detection switch is to detect whether the guide slider 1605 or the piston rod has moved. Its position can be installed at any position where the activity of the guide slider 1605 or the piston rod can be detected. The available switch types include but are not limited to micro switches, proximity sensors, photoelectric sensors, laser sensors and other common motion-triggered switch types. In this embodiment, the output shaft of the forward motor 1602 is fixedly connected to the screw rod, the screw rod cooperates with the transmission block 1605, the axis of the screw rod is parallel to the axis of the guide shaft 1603, and the rotation of the screw rod is converted into axial movement of the guide shaft 1603 through the transmission block 1605. The above movement is realized by a screw rod mechanism and has the characteristics of high precision.

[0048] It also includes a wire feeder arranged above the guide shaft 1603, and the wire feeder is used to feed the welding wire to the welding gun.

[0049] Furthermore, the main reinforcement support block 10 is in an "L"-shaped structure, and the main reinforcement fixing block 8 is an "L"-shaped flat plate structure.

[0050] Furthermore, the driving device further includes a fourth driving device, which is used to drive the main reinforcement support block 10 to move in the front-rear direction, and the main reinforcement support block 10 can move backward until other main reinforcements fixed between the main reinforcement support block 10 and the main reinforcement fixing block 8 are supported by the main reinforcements welded on the inner ring, thereby completing the welding of multiple main reinforcements.

[0051] Furthermore, it also includes a welding gun adjusting block arranged on the welding gun chuck 6, and the welding gun adjusting block is used to adjust the stability of the welding gun and improve the welding quality.
