Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of copper pipe welding, in particular to a multi-station welding device. Background Art

[0002] The welding equipment for copper pipe butt joint ensures the control of welding temperature, pressure and environment through the precise coordination of heating system, pressure system and protective gas system, thus achieving high-quality welding connection. The heating system uses electric heating wire or induction heating coil to provide the required heat, and accurately adjusts the temperature through the heating controller. The pressure system applies appropriate pressure through hydraulic or pneumatic mechanisms to ensure the tight connection of the welding interface. Specifically in actual operation, the welding equipment completes the entire welding process through preparation, clamping and positioning, heating and pressing, gas protection, and final cooling and inspection steps; as disclosed in application publication number CN113714702A, a universal welding tool for multiple stations and a welding method based on the tool include two symmetrically arranged brackets, each of which is vertically provided with a slide groove, and a base is installed between the two brackets. The base can be slid up and down in the slide groove and can be rotated around the connection with the slide groove. At least two mounting seats are arranged on the base along the length direction of the base, and each mounting seat is detachably installed with a welding fixing head, and the welding fixing head is composed of cylindrical assemblies from large to small stacked from bottom to top, so that the welding The fixed head has a stepped structure, which is suitable for welding copper tubes of different diameters. There is no need to change the mold, which effectively improves work efficiency and is convenient for sorting and placement. The base can move up and down to adjust the position or rotate the angle to adapt to the welding of copper tubes of different shapes or angles. However, the above technical solution requires workers to use welding guns to move the copper tubes one by one or to weld multiple welding guns at the same time. In this process, the workers need to manually control the two copper tubes to connect in advance before they can use the welding gun to form a weld at the copper tube connection. At this time, the workers need to connect the copper tubes one by one in advance to form multiple welding stations. This process will take a lot of time, and accurate docking of the copper tube ends is crucial to forming high-quality welded joints. If the docking position is not accurate or the docking angles of the two tubes do not match, it will also lead to uneven welds or insufficient strength of the welded joints during the welding process.

The gantry-type height-limiting beam 3 and the trustee guide 201 are both made of stainless steel components. There are three trustee guides 201. The three trustee guides 201 are symmetrical about the X-axis center reference plane of the hollow frame 1. The staff places the copper pipe to be welded on the trustee guide 201. The V-shaped groove on the trustee guide 201 can make it suitable for supporting copper pipes of different diameters.

[0032] The pipe end positioning mechanism 9 includes a bracket 901 fixed to one side of the top of the T-shaped frame 8, a cylinder 902 installed at the top of the bracket 901, and a sleeve 903 fixed to the bottom end of the piston rod of the cylinder 902.

[0033] When the copper tube is moved into position by the left multi-station pipe transfer module 4 and the right multi-station pipe transfer module 5, the staff turns on the pipe end positioning mechanism 9 through the PLC control panel 7, and the cylinder 902 drives the sleeve 903 and the pressure arm 904 to move downward until the copper tube is stuck in the V-shaped upper groove 905 of the pressure arm 904, so that the copper tube is fixed, thereby ensuring that it is in the appropriate welding position.

[0034] Embodiment 2, based on embodiment 1, Figure 6 It is shown that the left multi-station pipe transfer module 4 and the right multi-station pipe transfer module 5 have the same structure and work synchronously in the opposite direction under the control of the gear drive unit 6;

[0035] The left multi-station pipe transfer module 4 includes a bottom plate 401 fixed on the top of the right-angle stand 2, a plurality of V-shaped bases 402 distributed in a rectangular array on the upper surface of the bottom plate 401, U-shaped shaft supports 403 installed on both sides of the top of the V-shaped base 402, and steel rollers 404 rotatably installed inside the U-shaped shaft supports 403.

[0038] A universal coupling 407 is installed at the top of the vertical shaft 406, and a bevel gear transmission structure 408 for maintaining power connection is installed between the top of the universal coupling 407 and one end of one of the steel rollers 404. For the steel rollers 404 that are symmetrical in pairs, the vertical shaft 406 drives one of the steel rollers 404 to rotate through the universal coupling 407 and the bevel gear transmission structure 408, and then the steel roller 404 moves the copper tube in the X-axis direction, while the other steel roller 404 supports and assists the movement of the copper tube until the left multi-station pipe fitting transfer module 4 and the right multi-station pipe fitting transfer module 5 complete the docking of the two copper tubes on the same straight line. In this process, the left multi-station pipe fitting transfer module 4 and the right multi-station pipe fitting transfer module 5 can process multiple copper tubes at the same time and accurately transfer them from the initial position to the welding work area. Compared with manual operation or a single transfer device, the multi-station transfer module can greatly improve production efficiency and speed up the welding production cycle of the entire copper tube.

[0039] Embodiment 3, based on embodiment 1, Figure 7 and Figure 8 It is given that the toothed belt type multi-station welding module 10 includes a plurality of outer toothed rings 1001 rotatably mounted on the outer wall of one side of the T-frame 8, a transmission shaft 1004 rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the T-frame 8 above the outer toothed ring 1001, a screw linear module 1002 mounted at the edge of the surface of the outer toothed ring 1001, and a welding gun body 1003 mounted at the moving end of the screw linear module 1002. The two copper tubes will be moved to the inside of the outer toothed ring 1001 by the left multi-station pipe transfer module 4 and the right multi-station pipe transfer module 5. At this time, the workers The operator controls the screw linear module 1002 to work through the PLC control panel 7, so that the screw linear module 1002 drives the welding gun body 1003 to approach the center point of the outer gear ring 1001 and the copper tube until the gun head of the welding gun body 1003 is located at the junction of the two copper tubes. The surface of the transmission shaft 1004 is fixed with a driving gear 1005 for meshing with the outer gear ring 1001, and the outer wall of the other side of the T-frame 8 is installed with a rotation drive unit for driving multiple transmission shafts 1004 to work synchronously;

[0040] The rotation drive unit includes a belt drive structure 1006 installed between a plurality of transmission shafts 1004 and a second motor 1007 installed on the outer wall of the other side of the T-frame 8. The output end of the second motor 1007 is fixedly connected to one end of one of the transmission shafts 1004 through a coupling. The input end of the second motor 1007 and the lead screw linear module 1002 are electrically connected to the output end of the PLC control panel 7.

[0041] The staff turns on the welding gun body 1003 and the second motor 1007 to work, and drives multiple transmission shafts 1004 to rotate synchronously through the second motor 1007 and the second belt drive structure 1006. Then the transmission shaft 1004 drives the outer gear ring 1001 to rotate through the active gear 1005, so that the welding gun body 1003 rotates around the outer circumference of the copper tube until the welding of the two copper tubes is completed and a weld is formed at the joint position. This modular structure can handle the welding needs of multiple copper tubes at the same time and ensure that each welding point is completed under the same standard, reducing the influence of human factors on welding quality.

[0042] When the embodiment of the present application is in use, the staff first places a plurality of copper tubes to be connected and welded on the left multi-station pipe transfer module 4 and the right multi-station pipe transfer module 5. At this time, there are copper tubes to be connected on each of the same horizontal linear stations of the left multi-station pipe transfer module 4 and the right multi-station pipe transfer module 5. After the copper tubes are placed, the staff starts the gear drive unit 6 through the PLC control panel 7 to work, and the rotary power of the gear drive unit 6 is synchronously transmitted to the left multi-station pipe transfer module 4, on the right multi-station pipe fitting transfer module 5, at this time, the left multi-station pipe fitting transfer module 4 and the right multi-station pipe fitting transfer module 5 have opposite conveying directions for the copper pipe fittings, and then the two copper pipe fittings on the horizontal straight line approach each other until the relative pipe heads of the two copper pipe fittings touch each other, and the left multi-station pipe fitting transfer module 4 and the right multi-station pipe fitting transfer module 5 accurately transfer the copper pipe along the predetermined path, keeping it horizontal and stable, so that the subsequent welding positioning work can proceed smoothly, when the left multi-station pipe fitting transfer module 4 and the right multi-station pipe fitting transfer module After the copper tube fittings are transferred by block 5, the staff will start the tube end positioning mechanism 9 through the PLC control panel 7 to work, and the tube end positioning mechanism 9 will actively press down and fix the copper tube fittings after docking, so that the two ends of the copper tube fittings after docking maintain a stable docking state, avoiding separation and offset of the ends of the copper tube fittings during subsequent welding operations, thereby providing necessary conditions for the smooth progress of the welding process. When the two copper tube fittings on the same horizontal line are docked and fixed, the toothed belt multi-station welding module 10 starts to work. The toothed belt multi-station welding module 10 is equipped with a plurality of revolving welding guns, each welding head is responsible for a weld of a butt-jointed tube, that is, the welding gun in the toothed belt multi-station welding module 10 rotates around the central axis of the butt-jointed tube and forms a circular weld at the joint of the butt-jointed tube, so as to simultaneously handle the welding needs of multiple copper tube docking. During the operation of the equipment, through the PLC control panel 7, the operator can set welding parameters, monitor the production process, and adjust the system in real time to adapt to different process requirements and production conditions.
