Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of welding technology, specifically to a welding robotic arm for intelligent construction of process pipelines and its welding process. Background Technology

[0002] Welding, also known as fusion welding, is a manufacturing process and technology that joins metals or other thermoplastic materials such as plastics by heating, high temperature, or high pressure. Modern welding utilizes various energy sources, including gas flames, electric arcs, lasers, electron beams, friction, and ultrasound. Besides its use in factories, welding can be performed in a variety of environments, such as outdoors, underwater, and in space. Regardless of the location, welding can pose dangers to operators, so appropriate protective measures must be taken. Potential injuries from welding include burns, electric shock, vision impairment, inhalation of toxic fumes, and excessive ultraviolet radiation exposure.

[0003] Currently available welding robotic arms used for intelligent construction of process pipelines cannot easily adjust their height and angle according to the location of the pipeline to be welded, which greatly reduces the welding efficiency of the pipeline. Moreover, when welding the pipeline, it is inconvenient to rotate around the pipeline 360 ​​degrees, which makes it difficult to weld the pipeline. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a welding robotic arm and its welding process for intelligent construction of process pipelines, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A welding robotic arm for intelligent construction of process pipelines and its welding process are disclosed. The robotic arm includes a base, a fixed rod fixedly connected to the upper end face of the base, a lifting mechanism disposed inside the right end face of the fixed rod, a sliding rod slidably connected to the upper end face of the fixed rod, a bearing seat bracket installed inside the upper end face of the sliding rod, a sliding sleeve fixedly connected to the upper end face of the bearing seat bracket, an electric push rod slidably connected to the inner cavity of the sliding sleeve, a rotating pin rotatably connected to the output end of the electric push rod, and a fixed frame installed on the outer side of the rotating pin away from the electric push rod.

[0007] Furthermore, a semi-circular support frame is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed frame away from the rotating pin shaft. A limiting groove is provided on the outside of the semi-circular support frame, and a semi-circular toothed ring is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the limiting groove.

[0008] Furthermore, each of the upper surfaces of the mounting bracket is fixedly connected to a micro motor, and the micro motor is fixedly connected to a gear via an output shaft, the gear meshing with a semi-circular gear ring.

[0009] Furthermore, a servo push rod is mounted on the lower end face of the semi-circular gear ring, and the servo push rod is fixedly connected to a clamping mechanism via an output shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper end face of the sliding sleeve is internally threaded with a fastening bolt, and the lower end face of the fastening bolt is provided with a rubber anti-slip pad. The fastening bolt is used to press and fix the electric push rod in the inner cavity of the sliding sleeve.

[0011] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism includes a crank handle, a transmission bevel gear, a driven bevel gear, a threaded rod, and a storage groove. The storage groove is provided inside the upper end face of the fixed rod. The driven bevel gear is rotatably connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage groove through a bearing. The threaded rod is fixedly connected to the upper end of the driven bevel gear.

[0012] Furthermore, the threaded rod is externally threaded with a sliding rod, the driven bevel gear is meshed with a transmission bevel gear, and a crank handle is fixedly connected to the end of the transmission bevel gear away from the driven bevel gear.

[0013] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism includes a fixed plate, a power interface, a groove, a knob, a bidirectional threaded rod, a conductive plate, a carbon brush block, a clamping block, and a clamping groove. The servo push rod is fixedly connected to the fixed plate via an output shaft. A groove is provided on the lower end face of the fixed plate. The bidirectional threaded rod is rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the groove via a bearing. A knob is fixedly connected to the left end face of the bidirectional threaded rod. Both the bidirectional threaded rod and the knob are made of insulating material.

[0014] Furthermore, the bidirectional threaded rod is externally threaded with a clamping block, and a carbon brush block is provided at one end of the clamping block at the bottom of the groove cavity. A conductive plate is provided at the bottom of the groove cavity, and an electrical interface is provided on the right end face of the fixing plate. The carbon brush block is attached to the conductive plate, and clamping grooves are provided on the close surfaces of the clamping blocks. A conductive block is provided in the cavity of the clamping groove, and the welding rod clamped in the cavity of the clamping groove is energized through the conductive block.

[0015] A welding process for intelligent construction of process piping includes the following steps:

[0016] S1. The operator places the pipe to be welded on the placement rack or lifts the pipe off the ground using a trailer. Then, the operator moves the base to the pipe to be welded using casters and adjusts the angle by rotating the fixed frame using a pivot pin. At the same time, the operator holds the crank to rotate the transmission bevel gear to drive the driven bevel gear, and the driven bevel gear rotates the threaded rod to slide into the inner cavity of the receiving groove. The slide rod then uses the bearing seat trailer to push the sliding sleeve to drive the electric push rod to adjust the height so that the semi-circular support frame can be flush with the pipe to be welded. At the same time, the operator uses the bearing seat trailer to rotate the electric push rod 360 degrees and starts the electric push rod to push the fixed frame and drive the semi-circular support frame to slide into the outside of the pipe to be welded.

[0017] S2. When welding pipes, the operator places the welding rod between the clamping blocks, then holds the knob and rotates the double-threaded rod to drive the clamping blocks, causing the clamping blocks to slide and move closer to each other in the groove cavity. This allows the clamping blocks to hold and fix the welding rod using the clamping groove. Then, the operator inserts the required power supply wire into the inner cavity of the power supply interface, and energizes the power supply interface to the conductive plate. This allows the conductive plate, in conjunction with the carbon brush block, to energize the conductive block in the inner cavity of the clamping groove using the wire. Thus, when welding pipes, the conductive block is used to energize the welding rod.

[0018] S3. After the welding rod is ready, the operator starts the micro motor to rotate the gear, and the gear drives the semi-circular gear ring to slide in the inner cavity of the limiting groove outside the semi-circular support frame. Then, the semi-circular gear ring drives the servo push rod during rotation, and then the servo push rod drives the clamping mechanism and the welding rod to weld around the pipe through the output shaft.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0020] 1. In this invention, the operator places the pipe to be welded on a mounting rack or lifts it off the ground using a trailer. The operator then moves the base to the pipe using casters and adjusts the angle by rotating the fixed frame using a pivot pin. Simultaneously, the operator holds a crank to rotate the driven bevel gear, which in turn rotates the threaded rod and slides the sliding rod into the inner cavity of the receiving groove. The sliding rod, driven by the bearing seat trailer, pushes the sliding sleeve to drive the electric push rod to adjust the height, ensuring that the semi-circular support frame is flush with the pipe to be welded. At the same time, the operator rotates the electric push rod 360 degrees using the bearing seat trailer and activates the electric push rod to push the fixed frame, causing the semi-circular support frame to slide into the outside of the pipe to be welded. This solves the problem that existing welding robotic arms used for intelligent construction of process pipelines cannot easily adjust the height and angle according to the position of the pipe to be welded, resulting in a significant reduction in welding efficiency.

[0021] 2. In this invention, when welding pipes, the operator places the welding rod between the clamping blocks, then holds the knob to rotate the bidirectional threaded rod to drive the clamping blocks, causing the clamping blocks to slide and connect close to each other in the groove cavity. This allows the clamping blocks to clamp and fix the welding rod using the clamping groove. Then, the operator inserts the required power supply wire into the inner cavity of the power supply interface, and energizes the power supply interface to the conductive plate. This allows the conductive plate, in conjunction with the carbon brush block, to energize the conductive block in the inner cavity of the clamping groove using the wire. Thus, when welding pipes, the conductive block energizes the welding rod to achieve the required welding conditions.

[0022] 3. In this invention, after the welding rod is ready, the operator starts the micro motor to rotate the gear, and the gear transmission semi-circular gear ring is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the limiting groove outside the semi-circular support frame. Then, the semi-circular gear ring drives the servo push rod during rotation, and then the servo push rod drives the clamping mechanism and the welding rod to weld around the pipeline through the output shaft. This realizes that the welding robotic arm used for intelligent construction of process pipelines can easily rotate around the pipeline 360 ​​degrees when welding the pipeline, which causes the trouble of not being able to weld the pipeline.

A conductive block is provided in the inner cavity of the clamping groove 179, and the welding rod clamped in the inner cavity of the clamping groove 179 is energized through the conductive block.

[0040] A welding process for intelligent construction of process piping includes the following steps:

[0041] S1. The operator places the pipe to be welded on the placement rack or lifts the pipe away from the ground using a trolley. Then, the operator moves the base 1 to the pipe to be welded using the casters 4 and adjusts the angle by rotating the fixed frame 10 using the pivot pin 15. At the same time, the operator holds the crank 301 to rotate the transmission bevel gear 302 to drive the driven bevel gear 303, and the driven bevel gear 303 rotates the threaded rod 304 and the threaded transmission slide rod 5 to slide in the inner cavity of the storage groove 305. The slide rod 5 then uses the bearing seat trolley 6 to push the sliding sleeve 7 to drive the electric push rod 9 to adjust the height so that the semi-circular support frame 11 can be flush with the pipe to be welded. At the same time, the operator uses the bearing seat trolley 6 to rotate the electric push rod 9 360 degrees and starts the electric push rod 9 to push the fixed frame 10 to drive the semi-circular support frame 11 to slide into the outside of the pipe to be welded.

[0042] S2. When welding the pipe, the operator places the welding rod between the clamping blocks 178, then holds the knob 174 to rotate the double-threaded rod 175 to drive the clamping blocks 178, and makes the clamping blocks 178 slide and move closer to each other in the inner cavity of the groove 173, so that the clamping blocks 178 use the clamping groove 179 to clamp and fix the welding rod. Then the operator inserts the required power supply wire into the inner cavity of the power supply interface 172, and makes the power supply interface 172 energize the conductive plate 176, so that the conductive plate 176, together with the carbon brush block 177, uses the wire to energize the conductive block in the inner cavity of the clamping groove 179, and then uses the conductive block to energize the welding rod when welding the pipe.

[0043] S3. After the welding rod is ready, the operator starts the micro motor 13 to rotate the gear 14, and the gear 14 drives the semi-circular gear ring 12 to slide in the inner cavity of the limiting groove 18 outside the semi-circular support frame 11. Then, the semi-circular gear ring 12 drives the servo push rod 16 during rotation, and then the servo push rod 16 drives the clamping mechanism 17 to weld the welding rod around the pipe through the output shaft.

[0044] The working principle of this invention is as follows: The operator places the pipe to be welded on the mounting rack or lifts it off the ground using a trailer. Then, the operator uses the casters 4 to move the base 1 to the pipe to be welded and uses the rotating pin 15 to rotate the fixed frame 10 to adjust the angle. Simultaneously, the operator holds the crank 301 to rotate the transmission bevel gear 302, which in turn drives the driven bevel gear 303. The driven bevel gear 303 then rotates the threaded rod 304, and the threaded transmission slide rod 5 slides within the receiving groove 305. This causes the slide rod 5 to push the sliding sleeve 7 via the bearing seat trailer 6, thereby driving the electric push rod. 9. Adjust the height so that the semi-circular support frame 11 is flush with the pipe to be welded. Simultaneously, the operator uses the bearing seat bracket 6 to rotate the electric push rod 9 360 degrees and activates the electric push rod 9 to push the fixed frame 10, causing the semi-circular support frame 11 to slide into the outside of the pipe to be welded. This solves the problem that existing welding robotic arms used for intelligent construction of process pipelines cannot easily adjust their height and angle according to the position of the pipe to be welded, resulting in a significant reduction in welding efficiency. When welding the pipe, the operator places the welding rod between the clamping blocks 178 and then grips... Rotate knob 174 to turn bidirectional threaded rod 175 and threaded drive clamp 178, causing clamp 178 to slide closer together in the inner cavity of groove 173. This allows clamp 178 to clamp and fix the welding rod using clamping groove 179. Then, insert the required power cable into the inner cavity of power interface 172, energizing the conductive plate 176. This allows the conductive plate 176, in conjunction with carbon brush block 177, to energize the conductive block in the inner cavity of clamping groove 179 using the wire. Thus, during pipe welding, the conductive block energizes the welding rod, facilitating welding conditions. After the welding rod is ready, the operator starts the micro motor 13 to rotate the gear 14, and the gear 14 drives the semi-circular gear ring 12 to slide in the inner cavity of the limiting groove 18 outside the semi-circular support frame 11. In turn, the semi-circular gear ring 12 drives the servo push rod 16 during rotation, and then the servo push rod 16 drives the clamping mechanism 17 to weld around the pipeline through the output shaft. This solves the problem that the existing welding robotic arm used for intelligent construction of process pipelines cannot rotate around the pipeline 360 ​​degrees when welding, which makes it impossible to weld the pipeline.

[0045] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
