Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of stainless steel pipe welding, and in particular to automatic welding equipment for stainless steel pipes and a working method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Steel pipe is a common tool in existing industrial machinery. It can not only be used to transport fluids and powdered solids, exchange heat energy, manufacture mechanical parts and containers, but also be used as building materials. The production process of steel pipe is generally that the steel strip is rolled up gradually through multiple rollers to form a round tube blank with a weld. The round tube blank is welded by a welding device to form a steel pipe.

[0003] In the existing Chinese utility model patent with patent announcement number CN214350540U, a steel pipe weld positioning device is disclosed, which includes a base frame and a base, and the base frame and the base are arranged in sequence along the transmission direction of the steel pipe; a positioning wheel is rotatably connected to the base frame, and the outer edge of the positioning wheel is provided with a positioning strip along its circumference, the positioning strip is located in the weld of the steel pipe, and the positioning strip is in contact with the side wall of the weld of the steel pipe; two load-bearing wheels are rotatably connected to the base, and the two load-bearing wheels are respectively located on both sides of the steel pipe in the width direction, and each load-bearing wheel is in close contact with the outer side wall of the steel pipe; the two load-bearing wheels and the positioning wheel are distributed in a triangle, and during the transmission of the steel pipe, the positioning wheel and the load-bearing wheel both rotate along the transmission direction of the steel pipe.

[0004] In the above technical solution, the positioning bar on the positioning wheel is located in the weld of the steel pipe, and the two load-bearing wheels are respectively located on both sides of the width direction of the welded steel pipe.

At the same time, the positioning bar on the positioning wheel can keep the weld from moving during the transmission of the steel pipe. However, the technical solution does not disclose the corresponding alignment mechanism. When positioning the steel pipe, it is still necessary to manually rotate the steel pipe so that the positioning wheel is aligned with the weld for positioning in order to achieve alignment.

[0049] The alignment part 2 includes an alignment wheel 201, the outer edge thickness of the alignment wheel 201 is adapted to the weld of the steel pipe body 6, the alignment wheel 201 is correspondingly arranged at the lower end of the blanking frame 1, the lower end of the wheel frame of the alignment wheel 201 is provided with a spring telescopic rod 202, the lower end of the spring telescopic rod 202 is provided with a fixed box, the fixed box is fixed to the lower end of the concave support platform 4, the wheel frame of the alignment wheel 201 penetrates the concave support platform 4 and slides with it;

[0050] The alignment part 2 also includes a plurality of driving wheels 203, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the concave support platform 4. A linear driving mechanism is arranged on one side of the driving wheel 203, and the linear driving mechanism drives the driving wheel 203 to move and fit on the surface of the steel pipe body 6. When the axis of the driving wheel 203 is parallel to the axis of the steel pipe body 6, the driving wheel 203 drives the steel pipe body 6 to rotate along its axis.

[0051] A plurality of extrusion wheels 401 are arranged on the inner side of the concave support platform 4, and a concave surface matching the steel pipe body 6 is arranged on the inner side of the extrusion wheel 401. A plurality of spring telescopic rods 402 are arranged between the extrusion wheel 401 and the concave support platform 4. The extrusion wheels 401 on both sides extrude and transport the steel pipe body 6. A plurality of driving concave wheels 9 are arranged on the central upper end of the concave support platform 4.

[0052] The welding part 3 includes a bracket 301 . The bracket 301 is fixed to the lower end of the concave support platform 4 . A welding gun 302 is disposed at the lower side of the bracket 301 .

[0053] A plurality of steel pipe bodies 6 to be welded are transported to the blanking frame 1 in sequence by means of a conveyor belt 7. The upper end of the blanking frame 1 is arranged to have a conical funnel mouth, thereby further increasing the fault tolerance of the steel pipe bodies 6 falling, so that a plurality of steel pipe bodies 6 are discharged into the blanking frame 1 and stacked in sequence, and fall onto a pair of bearing arc plates 101 in sequence. A plurality of ball bearings 102 are arranged at the upper end of the bearing arc plates 101. The ball bearings 102 adapt to the movement of the steel pipe bodies 6, so as to facilitate the rotation or axial movement of the steel pipe bodies 6 themselves. When the steel pipe bodies 6 fall on the bearing arc plates 101, the alignment wheel 201 at the lower end is pressed down. The alignment wheel 201 is in close contact with the lower end of the steel pipe bodies 6 and is adapted to the alignment wheel 201 by means of a spring telescopic rod 202. Preferably, the outer edge of the alignment wheel 201 The partial setting is adapted to the weld, so that the outer edge of the alignment wheel 201 can be stuck in the weld of the steel pipe body 6, thereby limiting the position of the steel pipe body 6. Specifically, the alignment part 2 drives the driving wheels 203 on both sides to move relatively and fit on the two ends of the steel pipe body 6 by using a linear drive mechanism, and then drives the steel pipe body 6 to rotate by the rotation of the driving wheel 203. The alignment wheel 201 fits on the lower end of the steel pipe body 6 until the steel pipe body 6 rotates the weld to correspond to the alignment wheel 201. The alignment wheel 201 can be stuck in the weld of the steel pipe body 6, so that the steel pipe body 6 is restricted from axial displacement to between a plurality of extrusion wheels 401. Then the steel pipe body 6 in the blanking frame 1 falls to the load-bearing arc plate 101, and the next round of alignment work can be started.

[0054] Subsequently, the welds of the steel pipe body 6 are squeezed and merged by the extrusion wheels 401 on both sides under the elastic force of the spring telescopic rod 2 402, and the steel pipe body 6 is transmitted by driving the concave wheel 9, so that the steel pipe body 6 passes through the welding part 3 and is welded by the welding gun 302, so that the welds of the steel pipe body 6 can be automatically aligned and welded, with a high degree of automation, suitable for mass production, and greatly improved work efficiency.

[0055] A pair of flip baffles 103 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the lower end of the blanking frame 1, and the flip baffles 103 extend to the lower end outlet of the blanking frame 1. The outer end of the flip baffle 103 is fixedly connected to a hinge seat 104, and the two ends of the hinge seat 104 are rotatably connected to fixed blocks 105, and the fixed blocks 105 are fixedly connected to the blanking frame 1. A hinge rod 106 is rotatably connected between the fixed blocks 105, and the hinge rod 106 passes through the hinge seat 104 and is fixedly connected thereto. A gear 107 is fixedly connected to the two ends of the hinge rod 106, and a double rack 108 is meshedly connected between the pair of gears 107. The double rack 108 slides with the side wall of the blanking frame 1, and the double rack 108 is driven to move by the cylinder assembly 8.

[0056] Preferably, in order to allow the steel pipe bodies 6 in the blanking frame 1 to be discharged in an orderly manner, a pair of flip baffles 103 are provided at the bottom. Specifically, in the initial state, the pair of flip baffles 103 are in a horizontal state, thereby restricting a plurality of steel pipe bodies 6 in the blanking frame 1, until the steel pipe bodies 6 on the inner side of the lower side bearing arc plate 101 are aligned and transmitted out, and then the double racks 108 are driven to move by the cylinder assembly 8, and the double racks 108 are meshed with the gears 107 at both ends, driving the gears 107 at both ends to move in the opposite directions. Rotation, thereby driving the hinge rod 106 to rotate, and the hinge rod 106 drives the hinge seats 104 at both ends to rotate relative to each other, thereby driving the flip baffle 103 to flip, and opening the lower end outlet of the unloading frame 1, so that the steel pipe body 6 on the upper side can be unloaded, thereby avoiding that when the steel pipe body 6 at the upper end of the supporting arc plate 101 is aligned, the several steel pipe bodies 6 in the unloading frame 1 are all pressed on the upper end of the steel pipe body 6 being aligned, increasing the gravity of the steel pipe body 6 itself, thereby further increasing the friction during the alignment rotation or axial movement.

[0057] Four transverse grooves are formed through the lower side of the blanking frame 1, and an L-shaped baffle 109 is slidably fitted in the transverse groove. A plurality of spring telescopic rods 110 are provided on the upper end of the L-shaped baffle 109, and the spring telescopic rods 110 are connected to the blanking frame 1. The L-shaped baffle 109 extends into the blanking frame 1 and blocks the blanking of a plurality of steel pipe bodies 6. The spacing between the L-shaped baffle 109 and the flip baffle 103 is equal to the diameter of a single steel pipe body 6.

[0058] Preferably, since a plurality of steel pipe bodies 6 are stacked in the blanking frame 1 and each steel pipe body 6 needs to be screened and blanked individually, an L-shaped baffle 109 is provided, and the L-shaped baffle 109 does not hinder the falling of the steel pipe body 6 in the initial state (such as Figure 4As shown in the figure), when the flip baffle 103 is flipped relative to each other, the L-shaped baffles 109 at both ends move relative to each other, thereby getting stuck at the upper end of the steel pipe body 6 at the lower end to prevent the steel pipe body 6 on the upper side from falling. The flip baffle 103 is flipped open, so that the steel pipe body 6 at the lower end of the L-shaped baffle 109 falls alone, completing the unloading and realizing the separate screening of several steel pipe bodies 6. Then the flip baffle 103 and the L-shaped baffle 109 are reset, and the steel pipe body 6 at the lower end falls between the flip baffle 103 and the L-shaped baffle 109, which is convenient for the next round of screening and unloading, and further improves the stability of unloading of a single steel pipe body 6.

[0059] A rack groove is formed at the lower end of the L-shaped baffle 109 , and an arc-shaped tooth 111 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the hinge seat 104 . The arc-shaped tooth 111 meshes with the rack groove. When the flip baffle 103 is in a horizontal state, the L-shaped baffle 109 is away from the blanking frame 1 .

[0060] Specifically, arc-shaped teeth 111 and rack grooves are provided, and the two mesh with each other, so that the hinge seat 104 drives the L-shaped baffle 109 to move while driving the flip baffle 103 to flip, so that when a pair of flip baffles 103 open the outlet of the unloading frame 1, a pair of L-shaped baffles 109 are inserted between several stacked steel pipe bodies 6, so as to automatically screen out a single steel pipe body 6 and unload the material. That is to say, the flip baffle 103 and the L-shaped baffle 109 alternately limit several steel pipe bodies 6 and continuously screen out a single steel pipe body 6 for unloading, and the two have good synchronization and save costs.

[0061] The linear drive mechanism includes a moving frame 204, a plurality of guide telescopic rods 205 are arranged between the two ends of the moving frame 204 and the concave support platform 4, a pair of fixed plates 206 are fixedly connected to the middle side of the moving frame 204, a disc member 207 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the fixed plate 206, a pair of support rods 208 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the disc member 207, and the driving wheel 203 is rotatably connected between the pair of support rods 208.

[0062] Preferably, in order to ensure that the driving wheel 203 drives the steel pipe body 6 stably, a linear driving mechanism is provided to drive the driving wheel 203 to move, thereby ensuring that the driving wheel 203 is in close contact with the surface of the steel pipe body 6. Specifically, the moving frame 204 is guided by the guide telescopic rod 205 to move linearly, and the moving frame 204 can drive a pair of fixed plates 206, a disc member 207, a support rod 208 and the driving wheel 203 to move, so that the driving wheel 203 moves and is in close contact with the steel pipe body 6, and the steel pipe body 6 can be driven to rotate and find the correct position.

[0063] Preferably, the disc 207 is rotatably connected to the fixing plate 206, so that the disc 207 can drive the driving wheel 203 to rotate relatively, so that when the axis of the driving wheel 203 is parallel to the axis of the steel pipe body 6, the driving wheel 203 can rotate to drive the steel pipe body 6 to rotate along its axis for alignment. After alignment, the disc 207 drives the driving wheel 203 to rotate 90 degrees. At this time, the center end of the driving wheel 203 is still in contact with the steel pipe body 6, so that the steel pipe body 6 can be driven to move axially between the plurality of extrusion wheels 401 for subsequent welding work. That is to say, the driving wheel 203 can drive the steel pipe body 6 to rotate and further drive it to move, which is highly practical and saves costs.

[0064] Preferably, the driving wheel 203 is made of rubber material to further increase the surface friction and improve the stability of the driving steel pipe body 6.

[0065] The lower end of the double rack 108 is hingedly connected to a pair of connecting rods 112, one end of the connecting rod 112 is hingedly connected to the two ends of the movable frame 204, and when the flip baffle 103 is in a horizontal state, the connecting rod 112 is in an inclined state and the driving wheel 203 is in contact with the steel pipe body 6.

[0066] Preferably, a connecting rod 112 is provided to connect the double rack 108 and the moving frame 204, so that in the initial state, the flip baffle 103 is in a horizontal state, the connecting rod 112 is in an inclined state, and the driving wheel 203 is in contact with the steel pipe body 6, so that the steel pipe body 6 can be driven to align the welding position, and then it is transferred to the next process after alignment, and then the double rack 108 moves downward to drive the flip baffle 103 to open the unloading port, so that a single steel pipe body 6 is unloaded. At the same time, the double rack 108 descends and drives a pair of connecting rods 112 to move. The connecting rods 112 push the moving frames 204 on both sides away from each other, so that the two sides The driving wheels 203 are separated from each other to facilitate the steel pipe body 6 to fall into the middle, and then the double rack 108 rises and resets, thereby driving the flip baffle 103 to reset, and re-limiting the several steel pipe bodies 6 on the upper side, and the connecting rods 112 on both sides pull the mobile frame 204 to reset, so that the driving wheels 203 on both sides are attached to the two ends of the steel pipe body 6 to be aligned, and the alignment work can be carried out. In other words, only by moving the double rack 108, the flip baffle 103 can be driven to control the unloading, and the displacement of the driving wheel 203 can also be controlled. It has strong practicality, good process synchronization, and a high degree of automation. No additional driving components are required to drive the mobile frame 204, saving costs.

[0067] A rotating rod is fixedly connected to the inner side of the driving wheel 203, one end of the rotating rod passes through the supporting rod 208 and is rotatably connected thereto, one end of the rotating rod is fixedly connected to gear 2 403, one side of gear 2 403 is meshingly connected to gear 3 404, one end of gear 3 404 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft passes through the supporting rod 208 and the passing end is fixedly connected to a bevel gear member 405, one end of the bevel gear member 405 is meshingly connected to a bevel gear disk 406, and the bevel gear disk 406 is rotatably connected to the disc member 207.

[0068] Preferably, when the driving wheel 203 needs to be driven to rotate, the bevel gear plate 406 is rotated to drive the bevel gear part 405, the rotating shaft and the gear three 404 to rotate, and the gear three 404 drives the gear two 403 and the rotating rod to rotate, thereby driving the driving wheel 203 to rotate and drive the steel pipe body 6.

[0069] One end of the bevel gear disk 406 is fixedly connected to a center rod 407, and the center rod 407 passes through the disc member 207 and the fixed plate 206 and is rotatably connected thereto. One end of the center rod 407 is fixedly connected to a pulley member 408, and the pulley member 408 is rotatably connected to the fixed plate 206. The pulley members 408 on both sides are connected by a transmission belt. The outer end of the pulley member 408 on either side is fixedly connected to a torque sleeve 409, and a key slot is provided at the outer end of the torque sleeve 409. A torsion rod 410 is slidably fitted in the torque sleeve 409, and the outer end of the torsion rod 410 is fixedly connected to a drive key 411, and the drive key 411 is engaged with the key slot, and the torsion rod 410 is driven to rotate by the motor member 801.

[0070] Preferably, when it is necessary to drive the bevel gear disk 406 to rotate, the torsion bar 410 is driven to rotate through the motor component 801, the torsion bar 410 is inserted into the torque sleeve 409, and the driving key 411 is inserted into the key slot to transmit the torque to the torque sleeve 409, and does not affect the movable frame 204 to drive the torque sleeve 409 to move axially. The torque sleeve 409 drives the pulley component 408 to rotate, and the center rod 407 at both ends can be driven to rotate through the transmission belt, and the center rod 407 can drive the bevel gear disk 406 to rotate.

[0071] There is friction between the disc member 207 and the bevel gear plate 406. A pair of limit blocks 5 are fixedly connected to the outer end of the disc member 207. The pair of limit blocks 5 are symmetrically arranged. A pair of limit seats 501 are fixedly connected to one end of the fixed plate 206. The pair of limit seats 501 limit the rotation angle of the disc member 207.

[0072] Preferably, a limit block 5 and a limit seat 501 are provided, and a friction force is provided between the disc member 207 and the bevel gear disc 406. When the bevel gear disc 406 rotates, due to the existence of the friction force, the disc member 207 is driven to rotate synchronously, so that the limit block 5 contacts the limit seat 501 at the lower end (such as Fig.10As shown), at this time, the axis of the driving wheel 203 is parallel to the steel pipe body 6, and the disc member 207 is restricted and cannot continue to rotate. At this time, if the bevel gear plate 406 continues to rotate, when the driving force is greater than the existing friction force, the bevel gear plate 406 can rotate independently relative to the disc member 207, and the driving wheel 203 can be driven to rotate, and the steel pipe body 6 is driven to rotate and perform the alignment work;

[0073] Then, when the alignment is completed, the bevel gear plate 406 rotates in the opposite direction, and the disc member 207 is driven to rotate by the friction force. When the limit block 5 contacts the limit seat 501 on the side, the driving wheel 203 is perpendicular to the axis of the steel pipe body 6. Similarly, the bevel gear plate 406 rotates independently relative to the disc member 207, thereby driving the driving wheel 203 to rotate, and driving the steel pipe body 6 to move out to the next process (it is worth mentioning that, when the steel pipe body 6 is driven to rotate and move, the driving wheel 203 rotates in the opposite direction. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the driving wheel 203 is perpendicular to the axis of the steel pipe body 6). The driving direction of the steel pipe body 6 is to ensure that the steel pipe body 6 is transported toward the welding part 3), that is, only through the drive of the motor component 801, the rotation of the driving wheel 203 can be driven, and the axial direction of the driving wheel 203 can be controlled. It is highly practical and does not require additional driving components or control programs. Only the forward and reverse rotation of the motor component 801 is required to realize the switching of the angle of the driving wheel 203 after aligning the steel pipe body 6, and then drive the steel pipe body 6 to move. The process connection is smooth and cost-saving.
