TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cutting equipment, in particular to a pipe sawing machine system and a pipe cutting method. BACKGROUND
[0002] In shipbuilding and other heavy industries, a large number of pipes of various materials and specifications need to be cut and processed. The cutting quality directly affects the quality of the subsequent processing, especially the assembly and welding. For example, the length, ovality, and cut flatness of the pipe cutting will directly affect the quality, precision, and efficiency of the pipe assembly and welding. The pipe sawing machine plays an irreplaceable role in the pipe cutting process.
[0003] The existing method is to manually draw a line on the pipe, adjust the position of the pipe on the sawing machine platform, move the pipe to the cutting position, clamp the pipe with a clamp, and then automatically cut the pipe.
[0004] However, manual operation has the following problems. First, the cutting length is measured manually, and the line is drawn manually. The positioning of the cutting position is observed by the naked eye, which has a large error. Different operators will result in different errors, and this error problem is difficult to completely solve, resulting in a large length error of the pipe cutting. Second, the pipe is clamped with a clamp during cutting, and the clamp only contacts the outer surface of the pipe in a line, which has a small contact area and is not symmetrical around the circumference. The clamping force is determined by the operator's observation and experience, which may be too large and cause the pipe to be clamped flat. Third, the effective connection thickness of the pipe decreases during the cutting process, which may cause the end of the pipe to move relative to the cutting position, affecting the cutting quality or causing the cutting saw to break, which is a safety hazard.

[0036] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
[0037] A preferred embodiment of the pipe sawing system of the present invention, such as... Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the pipe sawing system includes a construction platform 1, a limiting component 2, a clamping device 3, a cutting saw blade 4, and a laser recognition device 5. The construction platform 1 serves as the supporting foundation, and the limiting component 2, the clamping device 3, the cutting saw blade 4, and the laser recognition device 5 are all mounted on the construction platform 1.
[0038] Construction platform 1 is a frame structure formed by connecting profiles, providing a fixed spatial position for pipe measurement, clamping, and support, positioning the pipe to be cut, and enabling precise, intelligent, and automatic feeding of the pipe on construction platform 1. Several conveyor shafts 6 are rotatably mounted on construction platform 1 via bearings 2323. The conveyor shafts 6 are arranged side-by-side, with all shafts at the same height and their upper surfaces on the same horizontal plane. The conveyor shafts 6 are used to transport the pipe axially. When pipe cutting is required, the pipe is supported on the conveyor shaft 6, perpendicular to it. Rotation of the conveyor shaft 6 drives the pipe axially.
[0039] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, the limiting assembly 2 comprises arc-shaped plates 21, telescopic rods 22, walking devices 23 and a housing 24. The arc-shaped plates 21 have contact surfaces for contacting the outer wall of the pipe. In this embodiment, the arc-shaped plates 21 are spring steel plates, so that the arc-shaped plates 21 can be deformed to change the arc-shaped diameter and the center of the inner surface of the arc-shaped plates 21. When the arc-shaped plates 21 contact the outer wall of the pipe, the axial direction of the arc-shaped plates 21 is the same as the axial direction of the pipe, and the center of the inner diameter of each arc-shaped plate 21 always remains concentric. In this embodiment, as shown, the rear end surface of the arc-shaped plate 21 is inwardly machined into a bevel, i.e. the arc-shaped plate 21 is shaped like a horn with a gradually increasing tail end diameter. The bevel has a guiding effect on the pipe, preventing the pipe from being stuck by vertical contact with the tail end surface of the arc-shaped plate 21 during movement from the rear to the front, and ensuring smooth forward movement of the pipe. Figure 5
[0040] The telescopic rods 22 and the walking devices 23 are each arranged in at least two groups along the circumferential direction of the arc-shaped plates 21, and the telescopic rods 22 and the walking devices 23 are arranged one-to-one. Each group of telescopic rods 22 is uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction of the arc-shaped plates 21 to ensure balanced force of the telescopic rods 22 on the arc-shaped plates 21. One end of the telescopic rod 22 is connected to the side of the arc-shaped plate 21 away from the contact surface, and the other end is connected to the walking device 23. The telescopic rod 22 is perpendicular to the arc-shaped plate 21, and the telescopic rod 22 changes the inner diameter of the arc-shaped plate 21 when it is extended or retracted. At this time, the position of the end of the telescopic rod 22 away from the arc-shaped plate 21 changes, and the walking of the walking device 23 in the housing 24 can compensate for the displacement of the telescopic rod 22, thereby ensuring that the telescopic rod 22 and the arc-shaped plate 21 are always perpendicular during the change of the inner diameter of the arc-shaped plate 21.
[0041] The housing 24 is assembled on the construction platform 1, and the housing 24 has an arc-shaped track 241 inside. After the housing 24 is assembled, the arc-shaped track 241 extends along the circumferential direction of the pipe, and the walking device 23 is assembled on the arc-shaped track 241, i.e. the walking device 23 can move on the arc-shaped track 241. When the walking device 23 moves in the arc-shaped track 241, it drives the telescopic rod 22 to move synchronously, thereby changing the position of the telescopic rod 22 and ensuring that the telescopic rod 22 is perpendicular to the arc-shaped plate 21.
[0042] As shown, Figure 2 As shown, the clamping device 3 comprises several groups of limiting assemblies 2, the housings 24 of each group of limiting assemblies 2 are connected to each other, and the connection of the housings 24 makes the arc-shaped tracks 241 form a closed ring structure. The arc-shaped plates 21 of each group of limiting assemblies 2 enclose a through hole, and the through hole is used for the pipe to pass through axially. The groups of limiting assemblies 2 are distributed along the circumference of the pipe, so that the groups of limiting assemblies 2 are arranged symmetrically in the circumferential direction, the arc-shaped plates 21 of each group of limiting assemblies 2 are in full contact with the outer surface of the pipe, the limiting assemblies 2 symmetrically clamp the pipe, prevent the deterioration of the ovality of the pipe, and have the effect of correcting the ovality. In this embodiment, the clamping device 3 comprises four groups of limiting assemblies 2, and the housing 24 of each group of limiting assemblies 2 is a 90-degree circular arc.
[0043] The cutting saw blade 4 is arranged on the front side of the clamping device 3, where the front-rear direction refers to the axial movement direction of the pipe, and the pipe moves from back to front. The pipe passes through the through hole of the clamping device 3 under the action of the conveying shaft 6, and the pipe passes below the cutting saw blade 4, and the cutting saw blade 4 can cut the pipe.
[0044] The laser recognition device 5 is assembled on the construction platform 1 and located on the front side of the clamping device 3, and the laser line emitted by the laser recognition device 5 is arranged in the same plane as the end face of the cutting saw blade 4 away from the clamping device 3, that is, the laser line emitted by the laser recognition device 5 is in the same vertical plane as the front end face of the cutting saw blade 4. In this embodiment, the laser recognition device 5 is located at the 6 o'clock position and is perpendicular to the horizontal plane. When the front end outer surface of the pipe is recognized by the laser recognition device 5 during the automatic forward movement of the pipe on the construction platform 1 through the clamping device 3, the conveying shaft 6 stops rotating, the pipe stops moving forward, and the electric control system can record the position as the 0-point position of the cutting length; then the output shaft continues to convey the pipe to move, and according to the diameter of the output shaft and the angle of rotation, the axial displacement of the pipe can be obtained, so as to accurately calculate the cutting length of the pipe.

Since the laser line of the laser recognition device 5 is coplanar with the end face of the cutting saw blade 4 away from the clamping device 3, the front end of the pipe is first moved to below the cutting saw blade 4 and is recognized by the laser recognition device 5 when the pipe is cut, and the axial movement distance of the pipe under the driving of the conveying shaft 6 is the length of the pipe to be cut, thereby realizing automatic adjustment of the pipe position, automatic measurement and feeding of the cutting length and reducing the error; the clamping device 3 is formed by a plurality of limiting assemblies 2, the extension and retraction of the extension rods 22 of the limiting assemblies 2 drives the deformation of different positions of the arc-shaped plate 21, adjusts the inner diameter of the arc-shaped plate 21, and at the same time, the walking device 23 moves along the arc-shaped track 241 in the shell 24, compensates the angle change between the extension rod 22 and the arc-shaped plate 21, ensures that the extension rod 22 is always perpendicular to the arc-shaped plate 21, clamps and limits the pipe through the arc-shaped plate 21, adjusts the size of the clamping force through the extension and retraction length of the extension rod 22, does not rely on the observation and experience judgment of the operator, avoids the pipe from being clamped flat and scrapped due to excessive clamping force, the plurality of limiting assemblies 2 of the clamping device 3 are arranged around the pipe, the arc-shaped plate 21 and the outer surface of the pipe are both arc surfaces in full contact, the contact area is large, the plurality of limiting assemblies 2 are symmetrically arranged, the ovality of the pipe is prevented from deteriorating, the pipe is ensured to be aligned, the pipe will not be offset, and the cut quality is ensured.

According to the distance from all laser emitting points to the outer surface of the pipe, the control system automatically generates the outer shape track (generally circular or elliptical shape) of the pipe, automatically generates the circumference C and the major axis A of the outer surface of the pipe, and feeds back to the control system to automatically generate the standard diameter Φ of the pipe.

[0069] S7, the cutting saw blade 4 works, the pipe is cut, each limiting assembly 2 works, the walking device 23 moves on the arc track 241 of the shell 24, and the telescopic rod 22 retracts to drive the arc plate 21 to deform, the diameter of the arc plate 21 increases to release the pipe, and the pipe cutting is completed.
[0070] In step S1, after the pipe is placed on the construction platform 1, the attitude of the pipe is adjusted, the front end of the pipe does not reach the area of the laser recognition device 5 after passing through the perforation of the clamping device 3, that is, the laser recognition device 5 cannot recognize the pipe, at this time, the tail end of the pipe is supported on the supporting device 8 behind the clamping device 3, and the supporting device 8 is used to support the pipe to avoid movement of the pipe.
[0071] In step S2, the control system controls the annular laser detection device 7 to perform 360-degree scanning detection on the outer surface of the pipe, generates the outer shape track (generally circular or elliptical shape) of the pipe according to the distance from all laser emitting points to the outer surface of the pipe, and automatically generates the circumference C and the major axis A of the outer surface of the pipe. The control system can calculate the standard diameter Φ according to the circumference C and the major axis A, in particular, when the shape of the outer surface of the pipe is a standard circle, the major axis A is equal to the standard diameter Φ, the control system saves these data, which can provide support for subsequent limiting assembly 2 clamping the pipe, and can also limit pipes of different sizes.
[0072] In step S3, the control system controls the limiting assembly 2 of the clamping device 3 and the supporting device 8 to be the same at the same time, the electric control hydraulic oil cylinder 221 controls the oil cylinder rod 222 to extend to the center of the inner surface of the arc plate 21, at this time, the center of the arc plate 21 is not fixed, and moves vertically downward as the diameter of the arc plate 21 decreases. At the same time, the walking device 23 connected to the telescopic rod 22 on both sides moves on the arc track 241, and the electric control gear 232 moves on the rack to the telescopic rod 22 away from the center, until the inner diameter of the arc plate 21 is reduced to 110%-120% of the major axis A, at this time, the telescopic rod 22 of all limiting assemblies 2 stops working.
[0073] The inner diameter of the arc plate 21 is reduced to 110%-120% of the major axis A, the pipe is not subjected to extrusion force from the arc plate 21, and the pipe can still move forward and backward on the saw bed platform, at this time, the 6 o'clock position area of the pipe and the adjacent local area are in contact with the inner surface of the arc plate 21.
[0074] In step S4, the control system controls all conveying shafts 6 to rotate synchronously and uniformly, drives the pipe to move forward axially, and at this time, the laser recognition device 5 is turned on to recognize the position of the pipe. When the laser recognition device 5 detects the front end of the pipe, the control system records the position as the 0 point position of the cutting length of the pipe, and the automatic recognition and positioning of the front end of the pipe to be cut can be completed, which is convenient for subsequent automatic determination of the cutting length L of the pipe.
[0075] In step S5, when the pipe moves from the 0 point position to the cutting length L, the relationship among the cutting length L, the diameter D of the conveying shaft 6 and the angle α is α = L × 360° / πD. When the conveying shaft 6 automatically rotates to the angle α, the pipe completes the forward movement length L on the upper surface of the conveying shaft 6, that is, reaches the cutting position, and the automatic control of the cutting length is realized.
[0076] In step S6, the inner diameter of the arc-shaped plate 21 of the clamping device 3 and the support device 8 is reduced to the standard diameter Φ, which is less than or equal to the long axis A of the pipe. At this time, the contact surface of the arc-shaped plate 21 is in full contact with the outer surface of the pipe, and the complete clamping action of the pipe can be completed. This process not only clamps the pipe, but also corrects the ellipticity of the pipe, which not only ensures that the ellipticity of the pipe at the cutting position will not deteriorate after being clamped and cut, but also makes the ellipticity better (closer to the standard circle) than the data before cutting.
[0077] In step S7, the control system controls the cutting saw blade 4 to cut the pipe, and the front half of the cut pipe is clamped and positioned by the support device 8, so that the pipe will not displace to affect the cutting quality or cause the cutting saw blade 4 to break. In step S7, the limiting assembly 2 controls the inner diameter of the arc-shaped plate 21 to increase, and the inner diameter of the arc-shaped plate 21 can increase to the maximum position or stop at an appropriate position according to the diameter of the next pipe to be cut (20-30% larger than the long axis of the pipe outer diameter or the standard diameter). In this process, the telescopic rod 22 of the limiting assembly 2 moves quickly, and in this process, the contact surface of the arc-shaped plate 21 at the 6 o'clock position is in the same horizontal plane as the conveying shaft 6, and the telescopic rod 22 is perpendicular to the outer surface of the arc-shaped plate 21.
[0078] The above steps are repeated to complete the cutting of each pipe.
[0079] Preferably, in step S3, the telescopic rod 22 is elongated at a first speed; in step S6, when each limiting assembly 2 is working, the telescopic rod 22 is first elongated at a second speed, so that the inner diameter of the arc-shaped plate 21 is first reduced to the long axis A, and then the telescopic rod 22 is elongated at a third speed, so that the inner diameter of the arc-shaped plate 21 is reduced to the standard diameter Φ, wherein the first speed, the second speed and the third speed decrease in turn.
[0080] The first speed ranges from 20 to 30 cm / min in step S3, the second speed ranges from 10 to 15 cm / min in step S6, and the third speed ranges from 5 to 8 cm / min. The telescopic rod 22 first adjusts the inner diameter of the arc-shaped plate 21 to the long axis A, at this time, when the outer surface of the pipe is a standard circle, all the contact surfaces of the arc-shaped plate 21 are in full contact with the outer surface of the pipe, and the complete clamping action of the pipe is completed. When the outer surface of the pipe is an ellipse, only the contact surface of the arc-shaped plate 21 at the long axis position is in partial contact with the outer surface of the pipe, and the partial clamping action of the pipe is completed, and then the inner diameter of the arc-shaped plate 21 is adjusted to the standard diameter Φ, at this time, all the contact surfaces of the arc-shaped plate 21 are in full contact with the outer surface of the pipe, and the complete clamping action of the pipe is completed.
