Currently, the operating parameters of manual welding machines are set by the workers themselves, making it impossible to control the actual process parameters used during production. This approach leads to significant deviations between the actual welding process and the designed specifications and requirements, and the standard finished product process. Furthermore, the lack of real-time monitoring of the welding process and the welding data during welding makes it impossible to achieve process quality traceability. Summary of the Invention

[0030] Figure 4 The diagram illustrates the internal structure of a computer device according to an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for illustration and explanation of the embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0032] The welding monitoring method provided in this application can be applied to, for example... Figure 1 The application environment is shown. In this environment, 102 is the guidance screen device, and 104 is the welding equipment, such as a welding machine. The processor (not shown) utilizes IoT technologies such as a smart gateway to collect data in real time during the welding process of the welding equipment 104, uploads the welding equipment data to a big data platform in real time, and simultaneously transmits the data to the guidance screen device 102. The guidance screen device 102 enables real-time interaction between the manual welding process and the welder, effectively improving welding quality and standardizing welding operation procedures. Simultaneously, through the analysis and control of key welding influencing factors, the visualization and transparency of production data are achieved, effectively improving welding production management efficiency.

[0033] Figure 2 A schematic flowchart of a welding monitoring method according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 2As shown in one embodiment of this application, a welding monitoring method is provided, comprising the following steps:

[0034] Step 201: During the welding process, determine the target welding operation that is currently in progress.

[0035] Step 202: Control the guidance screen device to display the real-time welding 3D animation corresponding to the target welding process, and the playback progress of the real-time welding 3D animation is consistent with the actual welding progress.

[0036] Step 203: Collect real-time welding data during the execution of the target welding process.

[0037] Step 204: If welding has been stopped based on real-time welding data, control the guidance screen device to simultaneously stop playing the real-time welding 3D animation.

[0038] The welding industry has developed rapidly, with significant improvements in automation levels across various sectors. However, most existing welding machines are manually operated, running independently without network connectivity. Users cannot monitor the equipment's operational status and resource consumption in real time, making it difficult to statistically analyze the efficiency of each machine, such as utilization rate, uptime, over-limit statistics, monthly utilization rate, welding time, and fault type statistics. Furthermore, the lack of network connectivity prevents effective monitoring of the entire welding process, hindering adherence to process specifications. Without accurate data recording of the welding process and parameters, quality traceability is impossible when rework is required due to workpiece defects. Identifying the root cause of quality issues is difficult, resulting in inaccurate statistics and management of welding material consumption, leading to significant waste due to reliance on experience. This technical solution, based on a comprehensive planning of welding business scenarios and processes, designs a real-time interactive and intelligent display guidance screen for the welding process. The hardware of the guidance screen device includes a display, flow controller, industrial gateway, communication terminal and server, etc. Users can monitor the welding machine data and welding screen in real time throughout the welding process through the guidance screen device.

[0039] Furthermore, while the operator is welding with the welding machine, the processor determines which stage of the finished workpiece the current welding process is in by uploading welding data in real time through the gateway. After determining the stage, the welding data and welding footage are sent to the guidance screen device in real time. The guidance screen device displays the welding scene in 3D animation, and the playback speed of the 3D animation matches the operator's welding progress, thus providing real-time monitoring of the entire welding process. Simultaneously, while the guidance screen device displays the entire welding process in 3D animation, the processor can also display detailed welding data, such as the welding machine's current, voltage, power, wire speed, and gas flow rate. During welding, the welding data changes in real time. When the guidance screen device detects that the welding data has remained unchanged for a period of time, it can be determined that the welding machine has stopped. When the welding machine stops, the processor controls the guidance screen device to stop playing the 3D animation, freezing the image at the point where the welding action ceases.

[0040] The above technical solution enables real-time monitoring of the welding process. By using a guidance screen device to monitor the manual welding process in real-time with 3D animation and allowing for real-time interaction with the welder, welding quality can be improved, welding operation procedures can be standardized, production data can be visualized and made transparent, and welding production management efficiency can be enhanced.

[0041] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a welding monitoring method in one embodiment. It should be understood that, although... Figure 2 The steps in the flowchart are shown sequentially as indicated by the arrows, but these steps are not necessarily executed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless otherwise specified herein, there is no strict order in which these steps are executed, and they can be performed in other orders. Figure 2 At least some of the steps in the process may include multiple sub-steps or multiple stages. These sub-steps or stages are not necessarily completed at the same time, but can be executed at different times. The execution order of these sub-steps or stages is not necessarily sequential, but can be executed in turn or alternately with other steps or at least some of the sub-steps or stages of other steps.

[0042] In one embodiment, when an operator is welding with a welding machine, the processor determines which stage of the finished workpiece the current welding process is in by using welding data uploaded in real time through a gateway. After determining the stage of the welding process, the welding data and welding footage are sent to a guidance screen device in real time. The guidance screen device displays the welding scene in the form of a 3D animation, and the playback speed of the 3D animation displayed on the guidance screen device is consistent with the progress of the operator welding with the welding machine, i.e., real-time monitoring of the entire welding process. Specifically, the completion of a finished workpiece involves the welding process of multiple weld seams. The welding accuracy of the weld seams determines the final quality of the finished workpiece; therefore, strict control of the welding process is crucial. In this technical solution, during real-time monitoring of the welding process, the guidance screen device also displays the sequential numbering of the weld seams in the form of a 3D animation, with the first weld seam displayed in high brightness. Each subsequent weld seam is displayed in high brightness to reflect the welding progress.

[0043] In one embodiment, when the guidance screen displays the entire welding process in real-time using 3D animation, the processor can also display detailed welding data, such as the welding machine's current, voltage, power, wire speed, and gas flow rate, through the guidance screen. During welding, the welding data changes in real time. When the guidance screen detects that the welding data remains unchanged for a period of time, it can be determined that the welding machine has stopped welding. When the welding machine stops welding, the processor controls the guidance screen to simultaneously stop playing the 3D animation, freezing the image at the point where the welding action ceases. When the operator restarts the welding machine, the processor determines that the welding machine has resumed operation based on the real-time uploaded welding data and welding images. Upon detecting that the welding machine is working, the processor sends the welding data and welding images to the guidance screen in real-time. The welding data continues to monitor the welding process in real-time using 3D animation, repeating this process until the welding machine completes the entire welding process, producing the finished workpiece.

[0044] In one embodiment, the first preset range of current can refer to the range of current under normal operating conditions of the welding machine, i.e., the normal operating current range. The second preset range of voltage can refer to the range of voltage under normal operating conditions of the welding machine, i.e., the normal operating voltage range. When the guidance screen device displays the entire welding process in real-time in the form of 3D animation, the processor can also display detailed welding data during the welding process through the guidance screen device, such as parameters like the welding machine's current, voltage, power, wire speed, and gas flow rate. During the welding process, the welding data of the welding machine changes in real time. When the guidance screen device detects that the welding data of the welding machine has not changed for a period of time, it can be determined that the welding machine has stopped welding. Specifically, when the processor detects that the welding current value of the welding machine is not within the normal operating current range, and the welding voltage value of the welding machine is also not within the normal operating voltage range, it can be determined that the welding machine has stopped welding.

[0045] In one embodiment, the identification code refers to a code used to uniquely identify a specific entity within a certain type of data, based on element classification. When an operator operates the welding machine, the user manually scans the identification code of the welding machine's workstation and uploads it. The processor can then process the identification code uploaded in real-time via the gateway to determine which stage of the finished workpiece the current welding process is in. After determining the stage of the welding process, the welding data and welding footage are sent in real-time to a guidance screen device. The guidance screen device displays the welding scene in the form of a 3D animation, and the playback speed of the 3D animation displayed on the guidance screen device is consistent with the progress of the operator welding with the welding machine, i.e., real-time monitoring of the entire welding process.

[0046] Furthermore, after the user manually scans and inputs the welding machine's identification code, the processor controls the guidance screen device to display the welding machine's working information through an animated interface. The user can preview all welding processes and weld sequence numbers on the finished workpiece on the guidance screen device. Simultaneously, the user can also use the functions on the guidance screen device to watch welding tutorial videos corresponding to each process of the workpiece, allowing them to understand or study the welding operation process and thus achieve more precise welded products.

[0047] In one embodiment, when an operator is welding with a welding machine, the processor determines which stage of the finished workpiece the current welding process is in by using welding data uploaded in real time through a gateway. After determining the stage, the welding data and welding footage are sent to a guidance screen device in real time. The guidance screen device displays the welding scene in 3D animation, and the playback speed of the 3D animation matches the operator's welding progress. While the guidance screen device displays the entire welding process in real time as a 3D animation, the processor can also display detailed welding data, such as the welding machine's current, voltage, power, wire speed, and gas flow rate. If the processor detects that parameters such as welding machine current, voltage, power, wire speed, and gas flow rate exceed the specified range, it controls the guidance screen device to issue an alarm. The operator can then adjust their welding actions based on the detailed data in the alarm message, and re-weld after standardizing their actions to ensure that each welding step is completed in a more standardized manner.

[0048] In one embodiment, during each welding process, the welding data and welding footage are recorded in real time. After multiple welding processes are completed to produce finished workpieces, the processor processes the welding data from these processes, generating detailed information, daily, weekly, monthly, and annual reports for each individual workpiece. These reports are then sent to a display screen for viewing. The detailed workpiece information includes historical current, voltage, wire speed, gas flow rate, and working hours. The daily report includes the number of workpieces processed, the number of critical welds, the number of abnormal workpieces, and the number of abnormal welds. The weekly, monthly, and annual reports include the number of workpieces processed, the number of critical welds, the number of abnormal workpieces, the number of abnormal welds, the operator's welding time, and the welding quality. Operators can clearly understand all the historical operating data of each welding machine based on the data reports displayed on the display screen.

[0049] In one embodiment, when an operator is welding with the welding machine, the user manually scans the identification code of the welding machine's workstation and uploads the identification code. The processor can then determine which stage of the finished workpiece the current welding process is based on the identification code uploaded in real time via the gateway. Furthermore, the processor controls the guidance screen device to display the welding machine's working information through an animated interface. The user can preview all welding processes and weld seam numbers on the finished workpiece on the guidance screen device. Simultaneously, the user can also view welding tutorial videos corresponding to each process of the workpiece using the functions on the guidance screen device, allowing them to understand or study the welding operation process. After determining the welding process stage, the welding data and welding footage are sent to the guidance screen device in real time. The guidance screen device displays the welding scene in 3D animation, and the playback speed of the 3D animation matches the operator's welding progress, thus providing real-time monitoring of the entire welding process. During real-time monitoring of the welding process, the guidance screen device also displays the weld seam numbers in 3D animation, with the first weld seam highlighted. Each weld seam is displayed in high brightness as the welding machine progresses, indicating its progress. While the guidance screen displays the entire welding process in real-time as a 3D animation, the processor can also display detailed welding data, such as the welding machine's current, voltage, power, wire speed, and gas flow rate. During welding, the welding data changes in real time. If the processor detects that the welding current and voltage are outside the normal operating range, it can determine that the welding machine has stopped. When the welding machine stops, the processor controls the guidance screen to simultaneously stop playing the 3D animation, freezing the image at the point where welding ceases. When the operator restarts the welding machine, the processor determines that the machine has resumed operation based on the real-time uploaded welding data and the welding screen. If the processor detects that parameters such as welding current, voltage, power, wire speed, and gas flow rate exceed the specified range, it controls the guidance screen to issue an alarm. When the processor detects that the welding machine is working, it sends the welding machine data and welding screen to the guidance screen device in real time. The welding machine data continues to monitor the welding process in real time in the form of 3D animation. This process is repeated until the welding machine completes the entire welding process and welds the finished workpiece.After multiple welding processes are completed by the welding machine to produce finished workpieces, the processor will process the welding data of the multiple welding processes, and compile detailed information, daily statistical reports, weekly statistical reports, monthly statistical reports and annual statistical reports for each finished workpiece. The processor will then send the above reports to the guidance screen device for display.

[0050] The aforementioned technical solution designs a guidance screen device that provides real-time interactive and intelligent display of the welding process. Utilizing a large-screen intelligent terminal, the guidance screen device enables real-time interaction between the manual welding process and the welder, showcasing real-time 3D animation during welding production. This effectively improves welding quality and guides on-site personnel to operate in a standardized manner. Simultaneously, through real-time monitoring and in-depth optimization, the analysis and control of key influencing factors in the welding process enable full traceability of critical welds. Furthermore, it achieves data acquisition and monitoring of welding equipment, realizing visualization and transparency of production data and improving production management efficiency. It automatically generates data reports on energy and material consumption, working hours statistics, and production data, analyzing and optimizing data resources to enable proactive preventative maintenance and ensure the stable operation of welding equipment.
