[0002] Submerged arc welding is a welding method in which the arc burns under the flux layer. It has the advantages of stable welding quality, high welding productivity, no arc light and little smoke. Submerged arc welding is widely used as the main welding method in the production of important steel structures such as pressure vessels, pipe section manufacturing, box beams and columns. After submerged arc welding, the welding slag formed by the coating and flux scab at the weld needs to be treated, but manual cleaning is inconvenient and inefficient.

[0038] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and implementation examples so that those skilled in the art can better understand the present invention and implement it, but the implementation methods of the present invention are not limited thereto.
[0039] like Figure 1-7As shown, the submerged arc welding slag morphology adaptive crushing device based on visual feedback of this embodiment includes the following steps.
[0040] Step 1: Camera A identifies the slag width, and controls the two limit plates to move to the slag width range through the controller of the submerged arc welding slag morphology adaptive crushing device based on visual feedback;
[0041] Step 2: When the crushing disk drives the sleeve to move downward, part of the sleeve will be blocked by the limit plate, and the unblocked sleeve will be squeezed onto the surface of the welding slag, so that the sleeve and the welding slag surface are approximately the same arc surface, and then the controller of the submerged arc welding welding slag morphology adaptive crushing device based on visual feedback adjusts the air flow regulating valve to make the gas in the gas cylinder flow at a certain flow rate V 1 Enter the crushing disc, and then the striker in the sleeve is under the pressure P 1 Under the action of a certain force F 1 Impacting the surface of the welding slag to break it, thus achieving the first breakage;
[0042] Step 3: When the crushing disc is lifted back to its original position, camera B identifies whether there are cracks on the surface of the welding slag under the impact rod that is not blocked by the limit plate for further judgment:
[0043] 1) If camera B recognizes that the surface of the welding slag under the impact rod that is not blocked by the limit plate has cracks, no secondary crushing will be performed;
[0044] 2) If camera B recognizes that there is no crack on the slag surface under at least one striker that is not blocked by the limit plate, after the crushing disk rises to the initial state before crushing, the crushing disk is driven downward again to drive the sleeve to squeeze the slag surface, and then the submerged arc welding slag morphology adaptive crushing device controller based on visual feedback increases the air flow regulating valve to make the gas in the gas cylinder flow at a certain flow rate V 2 (V 2 >V 1 ) enters the crushing disk, and then the striker in the sleeve is at the air pressure P 2 (P 2 >P 1 ) under a certain force F 2 (F 2 >F 1 ) impacts the surface of welding slag, thereby achieving secondary crushing;
[0045] Step 4: After the crushing disk is raised back to its original position, the sleeve returns to its initial position under the action of the air pressure in the crushing disk, and then the controller of the submerged arc welding slag morphology adaptive crushing device based on visual feedback controls the air flow regulating valve to close and the electric air valve to open, so that the air pressure inside and outside the crushing disk is equal, and then the striker in the sleeve returns to its initial position before the impact under the action of the spring elastic force;
[0046] Step 5: Camera A identifies the slag trajectory and controls the trolley to move to the next area to be crushed through the submerged arc welding slag morphology adaptive crushing device controller based on visual feedback.
[0047] The above-described implementation cases are only preferred implementation cases for fully illustrating the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Equivalent substitutions or changes made by technicians in the technical field on the basis of the present invention are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
