In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description, and have no special meaning.

[0048] As shown in Figure 11 The shield segment steel reinforcement cage 80 includes a plurality of arc-shaped single mesh 81 and a plurality of stirrups 82, wherein the plurality of single mesh 81 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart, the stirrup 82 is an open rectangular stirrup 82, the stirrup 82 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the single mesh 81 and is arranged perpendicularly to the single mesh 81, and the single mesh 81 and the stirrup 82 are welded to form the shield segment steel reinforcement cage 80.

[0049] In order to position the single mesh 81 and the stirrup 82 when welding the single mesh 81 and the stirrup 82, the present application provides a shield segment steel reinforcement cage welding die and a welding production line, Figures 1-10As shown is a welding production line in one of the embodiments of the present application, the welding production line comprises a shield segment steel reinforcement cage welding mold and two welding robots 60 arranged on opposite sides of the shield segment steel reinforcement cage welding mold. The shield segment steel reinforcement cage welding mold comprises a base 10, a single sheet net positioning mechanism and a stirrup positioning mechanism. The base 10 is in the shape of a circular arc consistent with the curvature of the single sheet net 81. The single sheet net positioning mechanism is installed on the base 10 and serves to support the single sheet net 81. A plurality of single sheet nets 81 are arranged in parallel and at intervals on the base 10 under the action of the single sheet net positioning mechanism. The stirrup positioning mechanism comprises a first positioning assembly 20 and a second positioning assembly 30. Two groups of the first positioning assembly 20 are symmetrically arranged at intervals along a first direction (X direction in the figure) on opposite sides of the base 10. The first positioning assembly 20 can make the inner side and the outer side of the plurality of stirrups 82 abut against the inner arc side and the outer arc side of the single sheet net 81 respectively and limit the movement of the stirrups 82 in the horizontal direction. The second positioning assembly 30 is also installed on the base 10 and is arranged in multiple groups along the extension direction of the base 10. The second positioning assembly 30 can apply pressure to the stirrups 82 to keep the heights of the stirrups 82 consistent.

[0050] In the above shield segment steel reinforcement cage three-dimensional net welding mold set, the single sheet net positioning mechanism and the stirrup positioning mechanism are respectively used to position the single sheet net 81 and the stirrup 82. The single sheet net positioning mechanism mainly positions the single sheet net 81 by supporting the single sheet net 81. The first positioning assembly 20 in the stirrup positioning mechanism mainly makes the inner side and the outer side of the stirrup 82 abut against the inner arc side and the outer arc side of the single sheet net 81 respectively and limits the stirrup in the horizontal direction. The second positioning assembly 30 can keep the heights of the stirrups 82 consistent by applying pressure to the stirrups 82, which facilitates the welding of the stirrups 82 and the single sheet net 81.

[0051] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the first positioning assembly 20 comprises a positioning bracket 21, a positioning clamping plate 22 and a first driving member 23. The positioning bracket 21 is in the shape of a circular arc consistent with the curvature of the single-piece net 81. The first driving member 23 is arranged in multiple numbers along the extension direction of the positioning bracket 21. The first driving member 23 can extend to the inner side of the positioning bracket 21 along a direction perpendicular to the positioning bracket 21. The multiple positioning clamping plates 22 are arranged one by one on the output end of the first driving member 23. The opposite side of the positioning clamping plate 22 on the two groups of first positioning assemblies 20 is provided with a positioning clamping groove 221. The positioning clamping groove 221 is in the shape of a V. The stirrup 82 can be clamped into the positioning clamping groove 221 and moved to the direction of the single-piece net 81 under the action of the first driving member 23 to abut against the inner arc side or the outer arc side of the single-piece net 81. In the process of clamping the stirrup 82 into the positioning clamping groove 221, the V-shaped positioning clamping groove 221 also has a guiding effect, which can adjust the stirrup 82 to a preset position and limit the movement of the stirrup 82 in the horizontal direction. Moreover, since each first driving member 23 is arranged on the circular arc-shaped positioning bracket 21, the stroke of each first driving member 23 is consistent when pushing the positioning clamping plate 22 to move, thereby reducing the control difficulty of the first positioning assembly 20. Exemplarily, the first driving member 23 is selected as a pneumatic cylinder, which has less pollution to the environment compared with an oil cylinder. It can be understood that one positioning clamping plate 22 can be provided with one positioning clamping groove 221 or multiple positioning clamping grooves 221, and the positioning clamping groove 221 is arranged one by one with the stirrup 82. In this embodiment, in order to reduce the cost while ensuring the positioning accuracy, two positioning clamping grooves 221 are arranged on each positioning clamping plate 22, which can simultaneously position two adjacent stirrups 82. More specifically, a reinforcing rib 222 is arranged between the two positioning clamping grooves 221 on the positioning clamping plate 22.

[0052] Further, the positioning bracket 21 comprises a stand 211 and a mounting plate 212. Multiple layers of mounting plates 212 can be arranged on the stand 211. Each mounting plate 212 is installed with multiple first driving members 23, and the first driving members 23 on different layers of mounting plates 212 are one by one corresponding, so that the stirrup 82 can be kept in a vertical state. Exemplarily, the mounting plate 212 is arranged in two layers, which can reduce the cost as much as possible while ensuring the verticality of the stirrup 82. The height of the mounting plate 212 on the bottom layer on the stand 211 is adjustable.

[0053] In this embodiment, the second positioning assembly 30 is arranged in three groups and is uniformly distributed at the middle position of the base 10. Referring to Figure 10The second positioning assembly 30 includes a pressing bracket 31, a pressing block 32, a pressing shaft 33 and a second driving member 34. The pressing bracket 31 is installed on the base 10, the second driving member 34 is installed on the pressing bracket 31, the pressing block 32 is installed on the output end of the second driving member 34, the second driving member 34 can drive the pressing block 32 to press down, and the pressing shaft 33 is arranged on the pressing block 32. The pressing shaft 33 can abut against the top surface of the bottom layer of single mesh 81 and press down the bottom layer of single mesh 81 under the action of the second driving member 34, so as to press down each stirrup 82 through the bottom layer of single mesh 81, thereby realizing the positioning of the stirrup 82 in the height direction. The second driving member 34 is selected as a pneumatic cylinder.

[0054] During the welding process of the reinforcement cage 80, each single mesh 81 needs to be sequentially placed on the single mesh positioning mechanism, and then the stirrup 82 is placed on the single mesh 81. The second positioning assembly 30 needs to avoid interference between the single mesh 81 and the single mesh 81 during placement, that is, the bottom layer of single mesh 81 needs to be placed below the second positioning assembly 30. Based on this, the pressing block 32 in the second positioning assembly 30 is rotatable to adjust the direction of the pressing shaft 33. Specifically, the second positioning assembly 30 further includes a rotating driving member, which can be a rotating motor. The rotating driving member is arranged on the output end of the second driving member 34, and the pressing block 32 is arranged on the output end of the rotating driving member. Under the action of the rotating driving member, the pressing block 32 drives the pressing shaft 33 to rotate. As known from the prior art, the single mesh 81 includes inner arc reinforcement, outer arc reinforcement and tension reinforcement. The tension reinforcement is welded between the inner arc reinforcement and the outer arc reinforcement to form the single mesh 81. If the distance between adjacent tension reinforcements is greater than the distance between the inner arc reinforcement and the outer arc reinforcement, the pressing shaft 33 can press down the single mesh 81 along the normal direction of the inner arc reinforcement (or the outer arc reinforcement). After rotating 90°, the pressing shaft 33 can avoid the inner arc reinforcement and the outer arc reinforcement to enable the single mesh 81 to smoothly pass through the pressing shaft 33. If the distance between adjacent tension reinforcements is less than the distance between the inner arc reinforcement and the outer arc reinforcement, the pressing shaft 33 can press down the single mesh 81 by pressing two adjacent tension reinforcements at both ends. After rotating 90°, the pressing shaft 33 can avoid the tension reinforcement to enable the single mesh 81 to smoothly pass through the pressing shaft 33.

[0055] In another embodiment, based on the spacing between adjacent stirrups being less than the spacing of the inner arc steel bars and the outer arc steel bars, the pressing block 32 and the pressing shaft 33 are arranged to be detachable instead of the rotary driving member, when stacking the bottommost single piece net 81, the pressing shaft 33 can be first removed from the pressing block 32, after the stirrup 82 is stacked, the pressing shaft 33 and the pressing block 32 are manually connected, so that the pressing shaft 33 respectively abuts against the inner arc steel bars and the outer arc steel bars, the second driving member 34 drives the pressing block 32 to move downward, and the bottommost single piece net 81 is pressed to align the stirrup 82. Such arrangement can avoid the pressing shaft 33 pressing the single piece net 81 by pressing the stirrup, reduce the tension between the stirrup and the inner arc steel bars and the outer arc steel bars, and avoid the stirrup from being separated from the inner arc steel bars or the outer arc steel bars. For example, the pressing block 32 is provided with a through hole for inserting the pressing shaft 33, when the pressing shaft 33 and the pressing block 32 are connected, the pressing shaft 33 can be directly inserted into the through hole, and both ends of the pressing shaft 33 pass through the pressing block 32.

[0056] Further, based on the second driving member 34 being a cylinder, the pressing block 32 is provided with a plurality of through holes arranged in the vertical direction, the height of the pressing shaft 33 is adjusted by adjusting the position of the pressing shaft 33 inserted into the through hole, and under the premise that the stroke of the second driving member 34 is constant, the bottommost single piece net 81 at different heights can be adapted.

[0057] Reference Figures 4-7As shown, the single-piece net positioning mechanism includes a third positioning assembly 40 and a fourth positioning assembly 50, wherein the number of the third positioning assembly 40 is two, the two third positioning assemblies 40 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the length of the base 10, the third positioning assembly 40 includes an end head bracket 41, a third driving member 43, and a supporting plate 42, a plurality of third driving members 43 are arranged on the end head bracket 41 in a vertical direction, the supporting plate 42 is arranged on the output end of the third driving member 43 one by one, the third driving members 43 arranged on the two end head brackets 41 also correspond one by one, and the supporting plates 42 connected by the opposite two third driving members 43 can support the two ends of the same single-piece net 81 respectively. Exemplarily, the third driving member 43 is a pneumatic cylinder. The pneumatic cylinder is installed on the side opposite to the two end head brackets 41 by a driving member connecting seat 44 to avoid interference of the pneumatic cylinder with the stacking of the single-piece net 81, and the output end of the pneumatic cylinder penetrates into the end head bracket 41 and is connected with the supporting plate 42 located on the side opposite to the two end head brackets 41; the number of the fourth positioning assembly 50 is also two, the two fourth positioning assemblies 50 are arranged between the two third positioning assemblies 40, the fourth positioning assembly 50 includes an intermediate bracket 51, a fourth driving member 53, and an extension shaft 52, a plurality of fourth driving members 53 are arranged on the intermediate bracket 51 in a vertical direction and correspond to the third driving members 43 on the end head bracket 41 one by one, and the extension shaft 52 is arranged on the output end of the fourth driving member 53 one by one. It should be emphasized that the fourth driving members 53 are divided into two groups, the directions of the two groups of fourth driving members 53 extending are opposite to each other to support the inner arc side and the outer arc side of the single-piece net 81 respectively. Exemplarily, one group of the two groups of fourth driving members 53 is arranged on one intermediate bracket 51, and the other group is arranged on the other intermediate bracket 51. The fourth driving member 53 can be selected as a pneumatic cylinder, at this time, the output end of the pneumatic cylinder itself can be used as the extension shaft 52, and the pneumatic cylinder is arranged in the intermediate bracket 51 to avoid interference of the pneumatic cylinder with the stacking of the single-piece net 81, and a through hole is formed in the intermediate bracket 51 for the output end of the pneumatic cylinder to penetrate out.

[0058] The stirrup positioning mechanism in the embodiment also includes a fifth driving member 24, the output end of the fifth driving member 24 is connected with the positioning bracket 21 to drive the positioning bracket 21 to move close to or away from the base 10. Exemplarily, the fifth driving member 24 is a pneumatic cylinder, and two pneumatic cylinders are arranged on the length direction of the positioning bracket 21 in a spaced manner. The stroke of the pneumatic cylinder as the fifth driving member 24 is greater than the stroke of the pneumatic cylinder as the first driving member 23. When the welding robot welds the single-piece net 81 and the stirrup 82, some welding points not interfered by the first positioning assembly 20 can be welded first, after the single-piece net 81 and the stirrup 82 are fixed, the positioning bracket 21 can be driven by the fifth driving member 24 to move away from the base 10, and then the welding points previously interfered by the first positioning assembly 20 are welded.

[0059] The welding robot 60 comprises a robot body 61 and a base 62, the robot body 61 is movably arranged on the base 62 along a second direction to move from one end of the single-mesh positioning mechanism to the other end to weld the single-mesh 81 and the stirrup 82, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. It can be understood that during welding, the robot body 61 can perform welding work on the reinforcement cage 80 from the top of the positioning support 21 or from below the positioning support 21 or from between the two mounting plates 212 of the positioning support 21. Exemplarily, the robot body 61 is selected as a five-axis or six-axis robot.

[0060] The welding robot 60 further comprises a 3D vision camera, which is installed on the robot body 61 and moves with the robot body 61, and takes pictures of the lap joints of the single-mesh 81 and the stirrup 82 during movement, and then automatically completes the welding of the welding points by the robot body 61.

[0061] In the embodiment, the stirrup positioning mechanism further comprises a guide assembly 70, which can improve the stability of the movement of the positioning support 21. The guide assembly 70 comprises guide rails 71 and rollers 72 in rolling cooperation with the guide rails 71. The guide rails 71 extend along the first direction, and there are three guide rails 71, two of which are arranged on the two sides of the positioning support 21 along the length direction, and the two rollers 72 corresponding to the two guide rails 71 are rotatably installed on the two sides of the bottom of the positioning support 21 and are in rolling cooperation with the guide rails 71. The other guide rail 71 is arranged at the center of the bottom of the positioning support 21, and the roller 72 installed at the center of the bottom of the positioning support 21 is in rolling cooperation with the guide rail 71. Exemplarily, the two guide rails 71 on the two sides are U-shaped channel steels, the two U-shaped channel steels are arranged in parallel but the opening directions are opposite, and the guide rail 71 in the middle is a guide block, and the roller 72 abuts against the side surface of the guide block.

[0062] In order to improve the welding efficiency, the entire welding production line is provided with at least three stations, which are a stirrup stacking area, a welding area and a finished product taking area.
