Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an automatic centering device and method for dual-laser beam dual-side synchronous welding of a T-shaped structure, belonging to the technical field of laser welding. Background Art

[0002] The rapid development of contemporary aerospace manufacturing technology has put forward huge demands and challenges on the materials and structures used, and structural weight reduction has become one of the important development directions in this field. Dual laser beam double-sided synchronous welding technology is a novel and unique laser welding process. The protective air pipes, laser beams and wire feed nozzles on both sides of the stringer are symmetrically distributed, and they act synchronously on the contact area between the stringer and the skin, melting the parent material and welding wire in this area, forming a joint molten pool on the lower side of the stringer, and then cooling and solidifying to form a weld. Compared with the traditional T-type structure single-sided welding and double-sided forming process, the dual laser beam double-sided synchronous welding technology can effectively ensure the surface integrity of the skin. At the same time, this technology has the advantages of high production efficiency, good weld forming effect, and significant weight reduction of the connection structure. It is an ideal connection process for skin-stringer structures and is expected to replace traditional machining and riveting technology in the manufacture of skin-stringer T-type structures in the aerospace field.

[0003] However, the dual laser beam dual-side synchronous welding technology has high requirements on the assembly accuracy of robots, tooling platforms and welding components. The laser heads on both sides of the stringer need to have high symmetry accuracy, and the transmission and reflection of the laser beam by different lenses in the laser head make it difficult to accurately control the position of the keyholes on both sides, resulting in uncoupling of the keyholes on both sides of the stringer during welding. This ultimately leads to asymmetry and misalignment of the welds in the dual laser beam dual-side synchronous welding of the skin-stringer T-shaped structure, and the quality of the welded joint is reduced. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a device and method for automatic centering of dual-laser beam double-sided synchronous welding of a T-shaped structure. The monitoring and feedback system monitors the welding process in real time to obtain a keyhole position signal, and further feeds it back to a computer control system to determine whether it is necessary to adjust the angle of the lens inside the laser head, thereby realizing automatic centering of dual-laser beam double-sided synchronous welding, thereby avoiding problems such as asymmetric welds and misaligned edges caused by keyhole uncoupling during the welding process, and achieving the purpose of improving the quality of dual-laser beam double-sided synchronous welding joints of the T-shaped structure.

[0005] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] The present invention provides an automatic centering method for dual-laser beam dual-side synchronous welding of a T-shaped structure, characterized in that the automatic centering method comprises the following steps:

[0007] (1) Keyhole position signal feature recognition: The laser welding system conducts dual-laser beam dual-side synchronous welding experiments on the T-shaped structure. During the welding process, the monitoring and feedback system records the signal features of the keyhole position of the T-shaped structure in real time and feeds back the signal features to the computer control system.

[0008] (2) Determination of keyhole position error: The computer control system determines the position error Δδ of the keyholes on both sides of the T-shaped structure based on the keyhole position signal. Before welding, a threshold value S of the keyhole distance on both sides of the T-shaped structure is preset. When |Δδ|≤|S|, it means that the keyhole position meets the expected requirements, and it is determined that the laser beams on both sides of the T-shaped structure are well aligned, and the lens angle does not need to be adjusted, and the welding process proceeds normally; when |Δδ|>|S|, it means that the keyhole position does not meet the expected requirements, and it is determined that there is misalignment of the laser beams on both sides of the T-shaped structure, and the lens angle needs to be adjusted;

[0009] (3) Formulating a lens angle adjustment plan: When the computer control system receives the judgment result and the keyhole position does not meet the expected requirements, a lens angle adjustment plan is formulated based on the error relationship between the lens angle and the keyhole position to accurately adjust the lens rotation angle. The relationship is as follows:

[0010]

[0011] Where θ is the lens adjustment angle, Δδ is the keyhole position error, and L is the distance from the lens to the keyhole;

[0012] (4) Implementing the lens angle adjustment plan: According to the lens angle adjustment plan formulated by the computer control system, the rotating device in the lens adjustment system drives the adjustable lens to rotate the corresponding angle θ in the specified adjustment direction until the position error is less than the preset distance threshold S, so as to achieve the purpose of automatic centering of the T-shaped structure dual laser beam dual-side synchronous welding;

[0013] Furthermore, the method for determining the position error of the keyholes on both sides of the T-shaped structure of the present invention is as follows: during the welding process, the high-speed camera system in the monitoring and feedback system collects the keyhole images on both sides of the T-shaped structure in real time, and the infrared camera system collects the infrared images of the welding molten pools on both sides of the T-shaped structure in real time, and further feeds the keyhole images and infrared images to the computer control system, and the computer control system uses the correlation analysis method to determine that the position where the highest temperature in the infrared image and the keyhole image overlap is the position of the keyhole; the position of the keyholes on both sides of the T-shaped structure in the spatial coordinate system is calculated by using the conversion relationship between the coordinate system where the keyhole position information is located and the spatial coordinate system where the T-shaped structure is located, and the conversion relationship is as follows:

[0014]

[0015] Where x, y, z are the keyhole space coordinates before coordinate transformation; x1, y1, z1, x2, y2, z2 are the keyhole space coordinates before coordinate transformation; x r1 ,y r1 、z r1 、x r2 ,y r2 、z r2 are the spatial coordinates of the keyholes on both sides after coordinate transformation; according to the positions of the keyholes in the spatial coordinate system, the position errors Δδ of the keyholes on both sides of the T-shaped structure are determined, and the keyhole position errors are determined by the following relationship:

[0016] Δδ x =|x r1 |-|x r1 |

[0017] Δδ y =|y r1 |-|y r1 |

[0018] Δδ z =|z r1 |-|z r1 |

[0019] In the formula, Δδ x , Δδ y , Δδ z are the position errors of the keyhole in the x, y, and z directions respectively; where Δδ is specified z =0.

[0020] Furthermore, the setting of the distance threshold S of the keyholes on both sides of the T-shaped structure of the present invention is related to the size of the laser welding molten pool, and the preset distance threshold is set to half of the radius of the molten pool, wherein the size of the molten pool can be measured by a high-speed camera;

[0021] Furthermore, the present invention provides a device for automatic centering method of dual-laser beam dual-side synchronous welding of a T-shaped structure, characterized in that it includes a computer control system, a lens adjustment system, a laser welding system, and a monitoring and feedback system;

[0022] Furthermore, the laser welding system of the present invention is used for dual-laser beam dual-side synchronous welding of a T-shaped structure, and comprises: a laser, two laser heads, a welding workbench, two welding robots, and a gantry;

[0023] Furthermore, the computer control system of the present invention is used to process keyhole position information, determine keyhole position error, and formulate a lens adjustment plan. The front end of the computer control system is connected to the monitoring and feedback system to receive the keyhole position information collected by the monitoring and feedback system; the back end of the computer control system is respectively connected to the laser welding system and the lens adjustment system to control them to carry out dual-laser beam bilateral synchronous welding experiments and complete the lens adjustment action;

[0024] Furthermore, the monitoring and feedback system of the present invention includes an infrared temperature measurement system and a high-speed camera system; the first infrared thermometer and the second infrared thermometer are respectively fixed on the first measuring column and the second measuring column on both sides of the T-shaped structure, and the temperature distribution at different times and spaces on both sides of the T-shaped structure is measured, and the temperature change of the molten pool at different times is fed back in real time to obtain an infrared image of the molten pool; the first high-speed camera and the second high-speed camera are placed on both sides of the T-shaped structure, and the shooting direction of the lens is at a certain angle to the horizontal plane. The third high-speed camera is fixed to the robot walking rail on the gantry, facing the welding molten pool, and the keyhole position is monitored in real time to obtain a keyhole image; the first high-speed camera and the first measuring column are fixed to the first walking mechanism on the welding workbench, and the second high-speed camera and the second measuring column are fixed to the second walking mechanism on the welding workbench, and the first walking mechanism and the second walking mechanism have the same walking speed as the robot walking rail on the gantry;

[0025] Furthermore, in the lens adjustment system of the present invention, the adjustable lens is driven by a rotating device that can complete 180° rotation within a spatial range, and the rotating device can drive the adjustable lens to complete adjustment according to the lens adjustment scheme.

[0026] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: in view of the fact that the keyhole positions on both sides of the beams are difficult to accurately control during the current T-shaped structure dual laser beam bilateral synchronous welding process, the keyholes on both sides are not coupled in the welding molten pool, resulting in asymmetric welds, misaligned edges, and other problems, the device and method obtain keyhole position information in real time, and formulate a lens adjustment plan through the matching relationship between the rotation angle of the lens in the laser head and the keyhole position error to make timely adjustments to the situation that does not meet the preset conditions, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic centering of the T-shaped structure dual laser beam bilateral synchronous welding.

The skin-stringer T-shaped structure was placed on the welding workbench 14 for welding experiments. The experiment used the TrdDisk-12003 disk laser 10, whose maximum output laser power can reach 12000W. The laser 10 has a one-to-two optical gate and is equipped with two optical fibers with a length of 30 m and a core diameter of 1000 μm.
