It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application, and are not used to limit the present application.
[0042] The various non-limiting embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.
[0043] In the prior art, the detection of welding penetration generally adopts manual method, but the manual naked-eye detection method is not only low in efficiency, but also cannot meet the needs of high-precision welding, and manual monitoring cannot monitor the welding penetration in real time, so it is necessary to detect the welding penetration after welding, so it is impossible to achieve timely adjustment, and therefore it is impossible to meet the needs of high efficiency and high precision.
[0044] In order to overcome the above defects, the embodiment provides a laser welding penetration real-time detection method, which is applied to real-time monitoring of welding penetration. The method can not only detect the target keyhole position after welding, but also monitor the target keyhole position during welding, so that the detection result of welding can be obtained faster, so as to adjust the welding position. The laser beam is used for welding the target keyhole position. Therefore, the method provided by the embodiment meets the requirements of high efficiency and high precision.
[0045] The method of the embodiment will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings.
[0046] Exemplary method
[0047] The embodiment provides a laser welding penetration real-time detection method, as shown in Figure 1 The method can be applied to monitoring the penetration during or after welding. The method comprises the following steps.
[0048] In step S1, the imaging image of the target keyhole is obtained, and the position information of the target keyhole is obtained according to the imaging image.
[0049] When the target keyhole position needs to be monitored during the laser welding operation, the three-dimensional scanning data of the target keyhole position is collected by using the scanner while the laser is used to weld the target keyhole position. As shown in Figure 2 The computer 1, the system core unit 2, the optical module 3 and the 3D module 4 are combined, the driving of the motor in the 3D module 4 and the reflection of the swing mirror can guide the laser beam to the target keyhole position, so as to measure the target keyhole position. It can be considered that the method provided by the embodiment can realize the measurement of the penetration of the target keyhole position during and after welding.
[0050] In the specific implementation, the step of obtaining the imaging image of the target keyhole and obtaining the position information of the target keyhole according to the imaging image comprises the following steps.
[0051] The imaging image of the target keyhole is obtained multiple times in a preset swing range, and multiple position information of the target keyhole is obtained according to each imaging image.
[0052] Since the imaging image of the target keyhole is obtained multiple times in a certain swing range, when the welding process is in a state that the penetration is constantly changing, more detection data can be obtained, so as to more accurately position the penetration data value.
[0053] When the imaging image of the target keyhole is obtained, the position of the target keyhole is positioned according to the obtained imaging image, and the accurate position of the current target keyhole is confirmed.
[0054] Further, in order to more accurately locate the target hole, the imaging image can be a 2D image or a three-dimensional image obtained by scanning. If the imaging image is a two-dimensional image, the two-dimensional position data of the target hole is obtained. If the three-dimensional imaging of the target hole is obtained, the three-dimensional position data of the target hole is obtained. The three-dimensional data information of the hole, such as the data coordinates of the bottom of the hole and the data coordinates of the edge and the height coordinates, can be quickly located.
[0055] Specifically, in an embodiment, a scanner can be used to realize 3D scanning of the target hole position, obtain three-dimensional point cloud data of the target hole during welding, and use the three-dimensional point cloud data to reconstruct a three-dimensional model of the target hole. The three-dimensional structure of the target hole position obtained by reconstruction is displayed to enable the user to preview the welding condition of the target hole at any time.
[0056] Before scanning, the scanning galvanometer can also be parameterized. After the parameterization is completed, the scanning galvanometer scans the target hole position in all directions according to the set collection angle and collection frequency to obtain three-dimensional point cloud data of the target hole position.
[0057] Step S2, introducing detection light and reference light according to the position information of the target hole.
[0058] When the target hole position is located, the detection light and the reference light can be introduced into the target hole according to the located position information to obtain reflected interference light.
[0059] In an embodiment, the detection method of the welding depth utilizes optical coherence imaging, that is, the light emitted by a wideband light source passes through a 2*2 coupler to irradiate the sample surface and the reference mirror through the sample arm and the reference arm respectively. The reflected light in the two light paths converges in the coupler, and the optical path difference of the reflected light of the two arms interferes within the coherence length, and the interference signal is output. Fourier transform of the interference signal can obtain the depth information of the sample arm relative to the reference arm. In this step, the optical module includes the above-mentioned wideband light source, coupler and other devices. The light is irradiated to the target hole position to realize the measurement of the depth value of the target penetration position.
[0060] Step S3, obtaining the interference light signal output by the optical fiber coupler when the detection light and the reference light are reflected by the target hole and input into the optical fiber coupler.
[0061] In this step, the interference light signal output by the optical fiber coupler is received, Fourier transform of the interference light signal is performed to obtain a frequency spectrum waveform corresponding to the interference light signal, and analysis is performed based on the frequency spectrum waveform to obtain the penetration data of the target hole.
[0062] Step S4, transmitting the interference optical signal to a data processing unit to obtain the target keyhole's penetration information.
[0063] The interference optical signal obtained in the above step S3 is analyzed, the interference optical signal is subjected to Fourier transform to obtain a frequency spectrum waveform corresponding to the interference optical signal, and the target keyhole's penetration data is obtained based on the frequency spectrum waveform.
[0064] Specifically, the step of transmitting the interference optical signal to the data processing unit to obtain the target keyhole's penetration information includes:
[0065] performing Fourier spectrum transform on the interference optical signal to obtain a frequency spectrum waveform;
[0066] inputting the frequency spectrum waveform into the waveform graph classification model to obtain a predicted detection welding category output by the waveform graph classification model;
[0067] performing local optimal data weighting algorithm processing on the frequency spectrum waveform according to the predicted detection welding category to obtain a penetration data value corresponding to the target keyhole position.
[0068] In addition, in order to obtain more accurate penetration data and improve data processing, the step of transmitting the interference optical signal to the data processing unit to obtain the penetration information includes:
[0069] performing Fourier spectrum transform on the interference optical signal to obtain a frequency spectrum waveform;
[0070] inputting the frequency spectrum waveform into the waveform graph classification model to obtain a predicted detection welding category output by the waveform graph classification model;
[0071] obtaining the penetration data value according to the imaging image information of the target keyhole position and the real-time temperature value of the target keyhole position.
[0072] Further, the step of obtaining the penetration data value according to the imaging image information of the target keyhole position and the real-time temperature value of the target keyhole position includes:
[0073] performing Fourier spectrum transform on the interference optical signal to obtain a frequency spectrum waveform;
[0074] inputting the frequency spectrum waveform into the waveform graph classification model to obtain a predicted detection welding category output by the waveform graph classification model;
[0075] performing local optimal data weighting algorithm processing on the frequency spectrum waveform according to the predicted detection welding category to obtain a preliminary detection result of the penetration corresponding to the target keyhole position;
[0076] combining the preliminary detection result of the penetration depth with the imaging image of the target keyhole, to obtain a penetration depth change curve;
[0077] obtaining a penetration depth data value corresponding to each welding time value based on the penetration depth change curve.
[0078] In an embodiment, after the penetration depth data value is obtained, the method further comprises the steps of:
[0079] obtaining a three-dimensional point cloud image of the target keyhole based on the image information of the target keyhole and the penetration depth data value of the target keyhole, and displaying the three-dimensional point cloud image.
[0080] When the penetration depth data value of the current welding is calculated, the three-dimensional point cloud image of the current keyhole can be obtained by combining the two-dimensional or three-dimensional imaging data monitored by the target keyhole, and the three-dimensional solid image of the target keyhole can be constructed according to the three-dimensional point cloud image, so that the user can watch the welding state of the target keyhole in real time.
[0081] The method provided in the embodiment uses online coherent imaging (IC I) to provide a higher level of detail and accuracy for laser weld monitoring. ICI uses a low-power infrared laser beam to measure distance. The measurement beam is emitted through the same optics as the welding laser to the bottom of the keyhole and records its depth in real time. A direct geometric measurement of the weld penetration is obtained during the welding process. This measurement method does not damage the parts, and the results can be obtained immediately.
[0082] Further, before the step of obtaining the three-dimensional point cloud data of the target keyhole position, the method further comprises the steps of:
[0083] determining whether the laser focal length of the laser is abnormal, and if abnormal, adjusting the laser focal length to make the maximum position of the laser power correspond to the target keyhole position.
[0084] In order to obtain more accurate three-dimensional scanning data, before scanning the target keyhole position, it is necessary to determine whether the laser focal length of the laser is abnormal, and if abnormal, the laser focal length needs to be adjusted so that the maximum value of the laser power of the adjusted laser corresponds to the target keyhole position. In a specific embodiment, the laser focal length can be manually adjusted according to the measurement information feedback of the current laser focal length, so that the laser focal length is normal, and the data information is recorded.
[0085] Further, in order to obtain better detection results, before the step of transmitting the interference light signal to the data processing unit to obtain the penetration depth information of the target keyhole, the method further comprises the steps of:
[0086] The preset network model generates a predicted detection welding category corresponding to the sample waveform graph according to the sample waveform graph, wherein the training set includes multiple groups of sample waveform graphs, and each group of sample waveform graphs includes a waveform graph and a detection welding category corresponding to the waveform graph; and the category of the waveform graph data includes welding penetration data, pre-welding weld data, post-welding surface height data, and post-welding weld width data.
[0087] The preset network model corrects model parameters according to the predicted detection welding category corresponding to the sample waveform graph and the detection welding category corresponding to the sample waveform graph, and continues to perform the step of generating the predicted detection welding category corresponding to the sample waveform graph according to the waveform graph in the training set until the training condition of the preset network model meets a preset condition, so as to obtain the waveform graph classification model.
[0088] When the obtained frequency spectrum waveform graph is analyzed, the detection type thereof is also classified, and whether the detection type meets a preset welding penetration requirement is compared according to the analyzed detection type, so that the welding adjustment effect is more accurate after adjustment.
[0089] In an embodiment, a waveform graph classification model is trained by using a deep learning algorithm. The waveform graph classification model is trained based on different waveform graph sample data, and quickly classifies an input waveform graph. Specifically, welding frequency spectrum waveform graphs corresponding to different detection types are collected. Since the welding categories are different, the differences between the data values are different, and the corresponding waveform graphs are different. Therefore, identifying the welding category to which the current detection belongs can improve the accuracy of data processing.
[0090] In order to obtain accurate detection results, the step of obtaining the three-dimensional point cloud data of the target keyhole position also includes:
[0091] The near-infrared camera is started to obtain image information of the target keyhole position.
[0092] The image information of the target keyhole position is obtained by using the near-infrared camera, and the two-dimensional image and the three-dimensional point cloud data are combined to monitor the welding penetration of the target keyhole, which can improve the detection efficiency. In an embodiment, the welding penetration of the target keyhole position is preliminarily judged according to the obtained image information. If the welding penetration is obviously not up to the requirements, the welding penetration can be directly adjusted. When the welding penetration needs to be further and more accurately judged, the scanned three-dimensional point cloud data is analyzed, thereby reducing the data processing amount and improving the analysis efficiency.
[0093] In an embodiment, the collected image of the target keyhole position can also be analyzed by using a deep learning algorithm, the image is trained, and the final analysis result is obtained.
[0094] Optionally, the step of transmitting the interference optical signal to a data processing unit to obtain the penetration information of the target keyhole includes:
[0095] performing Fourier spectrum transformation on the interference optical signal to obtain a spectrum waveform diagram;
[0096] inputting the spectrum waveform diagram into the waveform diagram classification model to obtain a predicted detection welding category output by the waveform diagram classification model;
[0097] performing local optimal data weighting algorithm processing on the spectrum waveform diagram according to the predicted detection welding category to obtain the penetration data value of the target keyhole position.
[0098] Specifically, the step of performing local optimal data weighting algorithm processing on the spectrum waveform diagram according to the predicted detection welding category to obtain the penetration data value of the target keyhole position includes:
[0099] performing weighted fitting on data in the spectrum waveform diagram according to the weighting value corresponding to the predicted detection welding category, and estimating the penetration value by using the least square method to obtain the penetration value of the target keyhole.
[0100] The local optimal data weighting algorithm is to perform polynomial weighted fitting on a to-be-fitted point based on local observation data, and estimate by using the least square method. In this embodiment, different weighting weights are set according to different detection welding categories, so the data in the spectrum waveform diagram is weighted fitted according to the predicted welding category and the preset corresponding weighting weight, the penetration value is estimated by using the least square method, and the penetration value of the welding is obtained.
[0101] In order to improve the analysis efficiency, the step of obtaining the three-dimensional point cloud data of the monitoring target keyhole position further includes:
[0102] starting a temperature control component to obtain a real-time temperature value of the target keyhole position.
[0103] The temperature value of the target keyhole position is obtained by using the temperature control component, and it is judged whether the welding of the target keyhole position meets the conditions based on the temperature value. If the temperature value exceeds a certain range, the welding of the welding position may not meet the requirements, so the welding penetration can be judged according to the welding temperature value of the target keyhole position in the specific implementation process.
[0104] In another embodiment, the step of obtaining the penetration data value according to the imaging image information of the target keyhole position and the real-time temperature value of the target keyhole position includes:
[0105] performing Fourier spectrum transformation on the interference optical signal to obtain a spectrum waveform diagram;

[0108] combining the preliminary detection result of the target keyhole position with the imaging image of the target keyhole to obtain a change curve diagram of the target keyhole position;
[0109] obtaining a melting depth data value corresponding to each welding time value based on the change curve diagram of the target keyhole position.
[0110] In this step, the three-dimensional point cloud image obtained from the imaging image of the target keyhole and the melting depth value obtained after algorithm processing are analyzed to obtain a change curve diagram of the melting depth, so as to provide display information of the dynamic change of the melting depth to the user, thereby more conveniently providing the user with the convenience of adjusting the keyhole according to the current melting depth.
[0111] Optionally, after obtaining the melting depth data value based on the imaging image information of the target keyhole position and the real-time temperature value of the target keyhole position, the method further includes the steps of:
[0112] obtaining a three-dimensional point cloud image of the target keyhole based on the image information of the target keyhole and the melting depth data value of the target keyhole, and displaying the three-dimensional point cloud image.
[0113] In combination with Figure 3 The method given in the embodiment is further explained more accurately.
[0114] First, start the system, judge whether the laser focal length is normal, if abnormal, measure the distance manually through laser feedback, confirm the best position of the laser power, and record, if normal, execute the next step.
[0115] Perform function selection, judge whether to start near-infrared camera, 3D line laser or temperature control equipment, according to the need of detection accuracy, the above three can be started at the same time, or one of the three functions can be started.
[0116] Obtain visual data by using the near-infrared camera, and perform 2D image analysis on the visual data, and perform 2D image training, and output the analysis result of the 2D image training.
[0117] The 3D point cloud data of the target keyhole position is collected by using a laser scanning galvanometer, the 3D point cloud data is converted into three-dimensional point cloud matrix data, the three-dimensional point cloud matrix data is subjected to Fourier frequency domain transformation to obtain a frequency spectrum waveform diagram, and the waveform diagram is trained to obtain a training result of the waveform diagram. Specifically, in this step, the frequency spectrum waveform diagram is input into a waveform diagram classification model to obtain a predicted detection welding category output by the waveform diagram classification model.
