Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of laser welding devices, and in particular to a laser welding device and a welding method for a towel rack. Background Art

[0002] Laser welding device, also known as laser welder or laser welder, is a welding equipment that uses high-energy laser pulses to locally heat the material. The energy of laser radiation diffuses into the interior of the material through heat conduction, melting the material to form a specific molten pool, thereby achieving the welding purpose. Laser welding is a new type of welding method, mainly for the welding of thin-walled materials and precision parts, and can realize spot welding, butt welding, stack welding, sealing welding and other welding methods.

[0003] The core working principle of laser welding is based on the high energy density characteristics of laser. The laser first generates a high-brightness, monochromatic and directional laser beam, which is focused into a very small area through a series of optical systems. When the laser beam acts on the surface of the workpiece, due to its extremely high energy, it can instantly melt the surface material of the workpiece and diffuse into the interior of the material through the heat conduction effect to form a local high-temperature molten pool. At the same time, by precisely controlling the laser irradiation time and energy distribution, high-quality connections between different materials can be achieved to form a solid weld.

[0004] When some existing parts such as towel racks, clothes drying racks, shoe racks and other bracket types are welded using laser welding devices, multiple cross bars need to be welded between the longitudinal bars. The longitudinal bars and cross bars need to be placed in appropriate positions and fixed stably on the operating table of the laser welding machine using clamps or other fixing devices before welding.

[0005] Chinese patent CN103170745B discloses a laser welding device, including a workbench, a welding fixture and a control device, wherein the welding fixture includes a fixing plate, a vertical plate, a connecting plate, a first motor, a rotating shaft, a workpiece fixing structure, a second motor and a screw. The rotational movement of the workpiece fixing structure is controlled by the first motor, and the rotation speed of the workpiece fixing structure is determined by the rotation speed of the output shaft of the first motor. Since the rotation speed of the first motor can be set to a preset value, the precise rotation angle of the workpiece fixing structure is ensured. In addition, the lifting and lowering movement of the workpiece fixing structure is driven by the screw rod by the second motor and cooperates with the screw rod nut to achieve it. The screw rod and the screw rod nut cooperate to convert the circular motion of the second motor into precise linear motion, so that the lifting height can be controlled by controlling the rotation speed of the second motor. Therefore, the above-mentioned welding fixture can effectively control the rotation angle and lifting height of the workpiece fixing structure, thereby making the weld points evenly distributed during multi-point welding;

[0006] Chinese patent CN114769865B discloses a laser welding device and welding method for a towel rack with double welding heads, comprising: an incoming material belt, with the material discharging end facing the rotating grasping mechanism; a feeding material belt, with the material feeding end facing the rotating grasping mechanism; a rotating grasping mechanism, which is arranged on a rotating platform and has three rotating positions: a material taking position, a welding position, and a material discharging position; two groups of laser welding machines, which are arranged at the welding position and are located on both sides of the towel rack; a three-dimensional adjustment platform, on which a laser welding machine is movably arranged, and the movement of the laser welding machine is controlled according to a preset program. According to the structural characteristics of the towel rack, a welding trajectory can be obtained according to a model, and then a laser welding method that is easy to control by a program is adopted. Two groups of laser welding machines are arranged on both sides of the towel rack during welding, and laser welding is automatically performed under the control of the three-dimensional adjustment platform according to a preset program, thereby realizing fully automated welding; a rotating grasping mechanism, which positions the towel rack into a vertical state while grasping it, and can eliminate the randomness of the position of the towel rack during transmission.

[0007] The above patents and prior art also have the following defects:

[0008] When welding some brackets, multiple cross bars need to be placed between two longitudinal bars and fixed. Fixing the cross bars and longitudinal bars is troublesome, time-consuming and labor-intensive. The fixing positions of the multiple cross bars and longitudinal bars cannot be adjusted, and the fixing of cross bars and longitudinal bars of different lengths cannot be adapted. The adaptability is poor, and the spacing of the multiple cross bars after fixing cannot be adjusted. The production of frames of different sizes cannot be met. Manual adjustment of the spacing of the multiple cross bars is not accurate, and the spacing between the multiple cross bars cannot be guaranteed to be consistent.

[0009] Specifically, in the process of welding the towel rack, since the towel rack has cross bars with different spacings, the prior art cannot conveniently adjust the fixed position of the cross bars, resulting in low welding efficiency of the towel rack and failure to ensure that the spacings of multiple cross bars are consistent, resulting in poor quality and non-standard size of the towel rack after welding.

[0025] In summary, the technical effects and advantages of the present invention are as follows:

[0026] 1. In the present invention, the longitudinal rod and the cross rod can be fixed, and the cross rod is distributed between the two longitudinal rods, which is convenient for welding the cross rod and the longitudinal rod. The cross rod and the longitudinal rod are fixed during welding, and the cross rod and the longitudinal rod are not easy to move during welding, so as to ensure the welding accuracy. The spacing between the two longitudinal rods can be adjusted, so that cross rods of different lengths can be fixed, so that cross rods of different lengths are located between the two longitudinal rods, and the adaptability is improved. The spacing between a plurality of cross rod fixing assemblies can be adjusted, so as to adjust the spacing between a plurality of cross rods, and the requirements of cross rods with different spacings can be met. The rectangular tubes in all the cross rod adjustment assemblies are driven to rotate by the rectangular rod, and it is ensured that when the rectangular tube moves on the rectangular rod, the rectangular rod can still drive the rectangular tube to rotate, and the rectangular tube drives the pushing screw rod, so that the pushing frame pushes the cross rod fixing assembly to move, and the actions of a plurality of cross rod adjustment assemblies can be uniformly operated, and the operation steps can be reduced. It is more convenient to adjust the spacing of the cross rods, and it is ensured that the movement amount of the cross rod fixing assembly pushed by the plurality of cross rod adjustment assemblies is consistent, so as to adjust the spacing of a plurality of cross rods and ensure the consistency of the spacing, improve the adaptability, meet the production needs, and improve the adjustment accuracy.

[0027] 2. In the present invention, the driving spline shaft drives the driving gears in all the crossbar fixing assemblies to rotate, and the driving gear drives the crossbar fixing screw to rotate, thereby driving all the crossbar fixing plates to move, fixing or releasing the crossbar, and the driving spline shaft can make multiple crossbar fixing assemblies to fix or release the crossbar synchronously, saving the steps of sequentially operating the crossbar fixing assemblies to fix the crossbar, facilitating the fixing of the crossbar, improving efficiency, and making it more convenient to use;

[0028] 3. Rotate the longitudinal rod fixing screw, the longitudinal rod fixing plate moves on the longitudinal rod fixing screw, and the longitudinal rod fixing plate moves to clamp the longitudinal rod. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the two longitudinal rod fixing units to adjust the clamping position of the longitudinal rod, the longitudinal rod motor drives the longitudinal rod screw to rotate, the longitudinal rod screw drives the corresponding longitudinal rod fixing frame to move, and the longitudinal rod fixing frame drives the corresponding longitudinal rod fixing screw and the longitudinal rod fixing plate to move, so as to adjust the clamping position of the longitudinal rod by the longitudinal rod clamping unit. It can not only firmly clamp longitudinal rods of different lengths to keep the longitudinal rod stable during welding, but also make the clamping position avoid the contact position between the longitudinal rod and the cross bar, so as not to affect the welding between the longitudinal rod and the cross bar;

[0029] 4. The welding method for the towel rack can fix the horizontal bar and the vertical bar of the towel rack when welding the towel rack, thereby preventing the horizontal bar and the vertical bar of the towel rack from being displaced during the welding process, and preventing the welding position between the horizontal bar and the vertical bar from being more accurate. The welded towel rack has a more standard size and is not prone to distortion and size changes caused by the misalignment of the horizontal bar and the vertical bar, thereby improving the welding quality of the towel rack. At the same time, the welding positions of multiple horizontal bars can be adjusted to meet the welding and fixing requirements of horizontal bars with different spacings, thereby improving the welding efficiency of towel racks of different sizes.

[0046] The longitudinal rod is fixed by the longitudinal rod fixing assembly 4, and the spacing between the two longitudinal rod fixing assemblies 4 is adjusted by the longitudinal rod adjusting assembly 6, so that the spacing between the two longitudinal rods is consistent with the length of the cross rod, and several cross rods are fixed by the cross rod fixing assembly 5. Since the spacing between the two longitudinal rod fixing assemblies 4 is consistent with the length of the cross rod, the two ends of the cross rod fixed on the cross rod fixing assembly 5 are against the longitudinal rod, and by rotating the rectangular rod 81, the rectangular rod 81 drives the rectangular tube 73 in all the cross rod adjustment assemblies 7 to rotate, and the rectangular tube 73 drives the corresponding pushing screw 72 to rotate, and the pushing frame 71 moves on the pushing screw 72, and the pushing frame 71 pushes the corresponding cross rod fixing assembly 5 to move, thereby changing the spacing between the two cross rod fixing assemblies 5, and the cross rod adjusting assembly 7 adjusts the spacing between several cross rod fixing assemblies 5, thereby adjusting the spacing between several cross rods, and the robot arm 1 drives the laser welding machine 2 to move to weld the cross rod and the longitudinal rod.

When the driving gear 53 rotates, it can drive the cross bar fixing screw 51 to rotate.

The longitudinal rod fixing screw 45 is a bidirectional thread setting. The two longitudinal rod fixing plates 46 are both threadedly connected to the longitudinal rod fixing screw 45. The longitudinal rod fixing screw 45 is rotatably connected to the longitudinal rod fixing frame 44. The longitudinal rod fixing frame 44 is threadedly connected to the longitudinal rod screw 41. The longitudinal rod fixing frame 44 is slidably fitted in the longitudinal rod fixing shell 42. The longitudinal rod screw 41 is rotatably connected to the longitudinal rod fixing shell 42. The longitudinal rod motor 43 is fixedly installed on the longitudinal rod fixing shell 42, and the output end of the longitudinal rod motor 43 is fixedly installed on the longitudinal rod screw 41.

[0058] The longitudinal rod fixing screw 45 is rotated, and the longitudinal rod fixing plate 46 moves on the longitudinal rod fixing screw 45, and the longitudinal rod fixing plate 46 moves to clamp the longitudinal rod. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the two longitudinal rod fixing units to adjust the clamping position of the longitudinal rod, the longitudinal rod motor 43 drives the longitudinal rod screw 41 to rotate, and the longitudinal rod screw 41 drives the corresponding longitudinal rod fixing frame 44 to move, and the longitudinal rod fixing frame 44 drives the corresponding longitudinal rod fixing screw 45 and the longitudinal rod fixing plate 46 to move, so as to adjust the clamping position of the longitudinal rod by the longitudinal rod clamping unit, which can not only firmly clamp longitudinal rods of different lengths and keep the longitudinal rod stable during welding, but also make the clamping position avoid the contact position between the longitudinal rod and the cross bar, so as not to affect the welding of the longitudinal rod and the cross bar.

[0059] Further, refer to Figure 1-Figure 10 The longitudinal rod adjustment assembly 6 includes a longitudinal rod adjustment screw 61, two longitudinal rod adjustment blocks 62 and a longitudinal rod adjustment motor 63. The longitudinal rod adjustment screw 61 is a bidirectional thread setting. The longitudinal rod adjustment screw 61 is rotatably connected to the welding table 3. The longitudinal rod adjustment motor 63 is fixedly installed on the welding table 3. The output end of the longitudinal rod adjustment motor 63 is fixedly installed on the longitudinal rod adjustment screw 61. The two longitudinal rod adjustment blocks 62 are respectively fixedly installed on the longitudinal rod fixed shell 42. The longitudinal rod adjustment blocks 62 are threadedly connected to the longitudinal rod adjustment screw 61.

[0060] When it is necessary to adjust the spacing between the two longitudinal rod fixing assemblies 4 so that the spacing between the two longitudinal rod fixing assemblies 4 is suitable for the length of the cross bar, the longitudinal rod adjustment motor 63 drives the longitudinal rod adjustment screw 61 to rotate, and the two longitudinal rod adjustment blocks 62 move on the longitudinal rod adjustment screw 61. The two longitudinal rod adjustment blocks 62 drive the corresponding longitudinal rod fixing shells 42 to move, thereby driving the corresponding longitudinal rod fixing assemblies 4 to move, and adjusting the spacing between the two longitudinal rod fixing assemblies 4 to the length of the cross bar, so that cross bars of different lengths can be placed between the two longitudinal bars for welding, thereby improving adaptability.

[0061] Further, refer to Figure 1-Figure 10 The crossbar adjustment drive assembly 8 also includes a crossbar adjustment motor 82 , which is fixedly mounted on the welding table 3 , and an output end of the crossbar adjustment motor 82 is fixedly mounted on the rectangular rod 81 .

[0062] The crossbar adjustment motor 82 drives the rectangular rod 81 to rotate, the rectangular rod 81 drives the rectangular tube 73 to rotate, and the rectangular tube 73 drives the corresponding push screw 72 to rotate.

[0063] Further, refer to Figure 1-Figure 10The crossbar fixing assembly 5 also includes a crossbar limiting rod 58, which is fixedly mounted on the crossbar fixing frame 54, and the crossbar limiting rod 58 passes through the crossbar fixing plate 52 and slides with the crossbar fixing plate 52. The longitudinal bar fixing assembly 4 also includes a longitudinal bar limiting rod 47, which is fixedly mounted on the longitudinal bar fixing frame 44, and the longitudinal bar limiting rod 47 passes through the longitudinal bar fixing plate 46 and slides with the longitudinal bar fixing plate 46.

[0064] The crossbar fixing plate 52 moves on the crossbar limiting rod 58, so that the crossbar fixing plate 52 moves more stably and has a better clamping and fixing effect on the crossbar. The longitudinal bar fixing plate 46 moves on the longitudinal bar limiting rod 47, so that the longitudinal bar fixing plate 46 moves more stably and has a better clamping and fixing effect on the longitudinal bar.

[0065] Further, refer to Figure 1-Figure 10 A fixed slider 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the crossbar connecting plate 57 , a fixed slide rail 11 is fixedly installed on the welding table 3 , and the fixed slider 10 is slidably fitted in the fixed slide rail 11 .

[0066] When the crossbar connecting plate 57 moves, the fixed slider 10 is driven to move, and the fixed slider 10 moves in the fixed slide rail 11, so that the movement of the crossbar fixing assembly 5 is more stable.

[0067] A crossbar clamping groove is provided on the crossbar fixing plate 52, and a longitudinal bar clamping groove is provided on the longitudinal bar fixing plate 46, so as to achieve a better clamping effect on the crossbar and the longitudinal bar.

[0068] The upper and lower symmetrical planes of the cross bar fixing screw 51 and the upper and lower symmetrical planes of the longitudinal bar fixing screw 45 are located in the same plane. The cross bar fixing plate 52 clamps cross bars of different diameters and is located in the middle part of the longitudinal bar fixing plate 46 clamps longitudinal bars of different diameters, so that the cross bars welded on the longitudinal bars will not deviate, thereby ensuring the welding quality.

[0069] The number of the plurality of cross bar fixing assemblies 5 is an odd number, the cross bar connecting plate 57 in the middle cross bar fixing assembly 5 among the plurality of cross bar fixing assemblies 5 is fixedly installed on the welding table 3, and the cross bar connecting plate 57 in the middle cross bar fixing assembly 5 among the plurality of cross bar fixing assemblies 5 is located in the middle position of the two longitudinal bar fixing assemblies 4.
