[0063] Embodiment 2
[0064] A welding control method is also disclosed in the embodiment, which comprises the following steps:
[0065] A mold is opened according to the space shape of the steel guardrail column surface, and the rebound amount is corrected by determining the pressure.
[0066] The intersecting line contour of each lower support plate and the surface of the steel guardrail is calculated, and the profile groove is formed by cutting the support contour on the lower support plate at different positions by using laser.
[0067] Specifically, since the lower support plate is arranged at the lower part of the steel guardrail, the cross section of the steel guardrail changes, and the lower support plate at different positions is calculated and laid out on the computer to ensure that the lower support plate is closely attached to the steel guardrail, and the contour of the lower support plate at different positions is cut by using laser cutting, so that the lower support plate is completely and closely attached to the steel guardrail.
[0068] Each column part is cut, the column part is positioned and welded after being limited in the profile groove to obtain a lower column surface.
[0069] Specifically, the cylindrical surface of the hexagonal variable cross-section steel guardrail is divided into an upper cylindrical surface and a lower cylindrical surface from the longitudinal direction, and the upper cylindrical surface and the lower cylindrical surface are separately punched and bent after being expanded and cut according to the actual cross-section to obtain a three-fold cylindrical surface part. Since the lower cylindrical surface has a large bending at the bottom impact surface, the two cylindrical surface parts are bent and then spliced and assembled, and then positioned and welded after being positioned in a type groove in the height direction and the longitudinal direction.
[0070] When the cylindrical surface part is put in, the longitudinal limiting plate is first placed in close contact with the flange positioning frame, and the cylindrical surface part is put in the type groove in close contact to limit the height direction. The cylindrical surface part is in close contact with the longitudinal limiting plate and the flange positioning frame in sequence to limit the longitudinal direction. The assembled cylindrical surface part is positioned and welded.
[0071] A plurality of inner stiffening plates are welded in the middle of the lower cylindrical surface. The inner stiffening plates are three hexagons with different cross-sectional sizes. After the positioning welding of the lower cylindrical surface is completed, the three inner stiffening plates are placed in the corresponding positions and welded to be stable. Since the lower cylindrical surface is the impact surface, the inner stiffening plates are fully welded to the lower cylindrical surface.
[0072] The positioning gap of the lower support plate is used in combination with the shaft positioning bracket, and the bracket is welded to the lower cylindrical surface.
[0073] Specifically, the distance between two adjacent lower support plates is consistent with the outer edge distance of the bracket, and the distance from each group of lower support plates to the longitudinal limiting plate is set according to the height from the bracket to the flange plate. A shaft is provided on the lower support plate, and a shaft hole is provided on the bracket and the lower support plate. The distance between the shaft and the shaft hole and the distance between the bracket hole and the steel guardrail are equal. The shaft is inserted into the shaft hole in the bracket after penetrating the lower support plate, and the bracket is positioned in the positioning gap between each group of lower support plates. At this time, the bracket is in close contact with the surface of the lower cylindrical surface, and then the bracket is welded and fixed.
[0074] The upper cylindrical surface and the lower cylindrical surface are closed, and the upper cylindrical surface and the lower cylindrical surface are positioned and welded after being pressed by the pressing device.
[0075] The outer stiffening plates connected at both ends of the upper cylindrical surface and the lower cylindrical surface are welded.
[0076] Specifically, the outer stiffening plate that fits the contour of the bottom end of the steel guardrail is inserted into the inside of the bottom end of the steel guardrail from the hand hole on the longitudinal limiting plate, and the stiffening plate is fully welded from the hand hole.
[0077] In addition, another outer stiffening plate is inserted into the inside of the top end of the steel guardrail. There is no obstruction here, and the outer stiffening plate can be fully welded around.
[0078] The longitudinal limiting plate is removed and inserted into the flange plate for welding.
[0079] Since the longitudinal limiting plate is consistent with the thickness of the flange plate to be welded, after the longitudinal limiting plate is taken out, the flange plate can be closely inserted, the hole diameter and hole distance of the flange positioning frame are consistent with the hole diameter and hole distance of the flange plate, the positioning block on the flange positioning frame is corresponded to the bolt hole on the flange plate, then the punch is used to penetrate the bolt hole of the flange positioning frame and the flange plate, the flange is positioned, and then welding is carried out.
[0080] The steel guard rail full-welded welds are taken out, specifically, the preliminarily formed steel guard rail is taken out from the lower support plate, and welding operation is performed on the welds, and a column cap is welded on the top of the steel guard rail.
[0081] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, and are not limited thereto; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that: it can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacement for part or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
