Subsequently, the laser welding head welds the gap on the surface of the stainless steel cylinder, and after the welding is completed, the stainless steel cylinder is polished using a grinding belt, which is conducive to polishing the weld of the stainless steel cylinder after the welding is completed when it is pushed out of the installation box, without the need for additional manual polishing.

[0033] Through the above structure, the end of the threaded rod 148 can be tightened again after the arc-shaped abutment block 145 has acted, further enhancing the clamping stability of the stainless steel cylinder.
[0034] In this embodiment, the outer full circle mechanism 150 includes an outer full circle plate 151, which reciprocates axially along the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder under the action of the first driving mechanism. The outer full circle plate 151 has an outer full circle hole 152 for the stainless steel cylinder to pass through. A grinding ring 153 is rotatably provided in the outer full circle hole 152. A plurality of grinding protrusions 154 are evenly spaced along the circumferential direction on the inner wall of the grinding ring 153. A gear ring 155 is circumferentially provided on the outer wall of the grinding ring 153. A gear 156 for meshing with the gear ring 155 is provided in the outer full circle hole 152. The gear 156 is driven by a first driving motor arranged on the outer wall of the outer full circle plate 151.
[0035] Through the above-mentioned structure, when the external rounding mechanism 150 is operating, the grinding ring 153 at the external rounding plate 151 can rotate under the action of the first driving motor, so that the multiple grinding protrusions 154 evenly spaced on the inner wall of the grinding ring 153 can grind out the folds and bumps on the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder, so that the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder can be rounded, and in this grinding process, since the grinding protrusions 154 are tightly fitted to the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder, the external rounding mechanism 150 will generate friction heat during operation, and the friction heat can preheat the stainless steel cylinder, making it convenient for the robot 120 to perform laser straight seam welding on the stainless steel cylinder.
[0036] The first driving mechanism includes an electric slide rail 170 disposed on the table surface of the workbench 110, and the outer full circular plate 151 is provided with a matching portion 157 for traveling on the electric slide rail 170; a guide rod 190 is provided between two symmetrically arranged clamping seats 130, and the outer full circular plate 151 is provided with a guide hole 158 for matching the guide rod 190. Therefore, the outer full circular plate 151 is preferably driven to reciprocate along the axial direction of the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder.
[0037] In this embodiment, the inner full circle mechanism 160 includes an inner full circle plate 161, which reciprocates axially along the inner wall of the stainless steel cylinder under the action of the second driving mechanism. A plurality of inner full circle parts 162 are evenly spaced on both sides of the movement direction of the inner full circle plate 161 and along the circumference of the inner full circle plate 161. The length directions of the plurality of inner full circle parts 162 located on the same side of the inner full circle plate 161 are different. The inner full circle part 162 includes a first support rod 163, and the length direction of the first support rod 163 is perpendicular to the plate surface of the inner full circle plate 161. A second support rod 164 is perpendicularly provided at the end of the first support rod 163. The length direction of the second support rod 164 is radially arranged along the inner full circle plate 161. An arc-shaped walking plate 165 is provided at the end of the second support rod 164, and a plurality of grinding wheels 166 are provided at the arc-shaped walking plate 165.
[0038] Through the above structure, when the inner rounding mechanism 160 is operating, the inner rounding parts 162 of different lengths reciprocate axially on the inner wall of the stainless steel cylinder under the action of the second driving mechanism, that is, rotational motion. Since the inner rounding parts 162 are of different lengths, the arc-shaped walking plate 165 at the inner rounding parts 162 can more efficiently round the inner wall of the stainless steel cylinder and grind the folds and bumps on the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder. The wheel surface of the grinding wheel 166 is provided with a rough surface, which is convenient for walking and can generate friction and heat on the inner wall of the stainless steel cylinder. The friction heat generated can preheat the stainless steel cylinder, making it convenient for the robot 120 to perform laser straight seam welding on the stainless steel cylinder.
[0039] In this embodiment, the length of the second support rod 164 is adjustable, the end of the first support rod 163 is provided with a mounting sleeve 167, the end of the second support rod 164 can be telescopically inserted into the mounting sleeve 167, and the outer wall of the mounting sleeve 167 is provided with abutment bolts 168 to tighten and fix the corresponding section of the second support rod 164. Therefore, the inner rounding mechanism 160 is supported on the inner wall of the stainless steel cylinder.
[0040] In this embodiment, the second driving mechanism includes covers 210 respectively arranged at the outer wall of the corresponding clamping seat 130, and the covers 210 are fixed by mounting columns 132 arranged at the outer wall of the clamping seat 130. A second driving motor 220 is arranged at one of the covers 210, and a driving rod 180 is arranged on the output shaft of the second driving motor 220. The inner full circular plate 161 moves under the action of the driving rod 180. Therefore, the outer full circular plate 151 is preferably driven to reciprocate along the axial direction of the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder.
[0041] A laser straight seam welding method for a stainless steel cylinder is implemented by the above-mentioned laser straight seam welding device for a stainless steel cylinder, and comprises the following steps: S1, placing the stainless steel cylinder at the welding position of the workbench 110, and aligning the straight seam gap of the stainless steel cylinder upward; S2, fix the two ends of the stainless steel cylinder to the clamping holes 131 of the corresponding clamping seat 130 and fix it by the locking mechanism 140; S3, start the outer rounding mechanism 150 and the inner rounding mechanism 160 to operate. When the outer rounding mechanism 150 and the inner rounding mechanism 160 are working, they synchronously reciprocate along the axial direction of the stainless steel cylinder and preheat the stainless steel cylinder. The outer rounding mechanism 150 rounds the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder during the reciprocating motion, and the inner rounding mechanism 160 rounds the inner wall of the stainless steel cylinder during the reciprocating motion. S4, after the rounding operation of the outer rounding mechanism 150 and the inner rounding mechanism 160 is completed, the manipulator 120 is started to operate, and the manipulator 120 is used to perform laser straight seam welding on the stainless steel cylinder; S5. After welding is completed, remove the stainless steel cylinder; S6. Repeat steps S1-S5.
[0042] Working principle: When the external rounding mechanism 150 is operating, the grinding ring 153 at the external rounding plate 151 can rotate under the action of the first driving motor, so that the multiple grinding protrusions 154 evenly spaced on the inner wall of the grinding ring 153 can grind down the folds and bumps on the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder, so that the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder can be rounded. In this grinding process, since the grinding protrusions 154 are tightly fitted to the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder, friction heat is generated during the operation of the external rounding mechanism 150, and the friction heat can preheat the stainless steel cylinder, making it convenient for the manipulator 120 to perform laser straight seam welding on the stainless steel cylinder. When the inner rounding mechanism 160 is operating, the inner rounding parts 162 of different lengths reciprocate axially on the inner wall of the stainless steel cylinder under the action of the second driving mechanism, that is, rotational motion. Since the inner rounding parts 162 are of different lengths, the arc-shaped walking plate 165 at the inner rounding parts 162 can round the inner wall of the stainless steel cylinder with high efficiency, and grind the folds and bumps on the outer wall of the stainless steel cylinder. The wheel surface of the grinding wheel 166 is provided with a rough surface, which is convenient for walking and can generate friction and heat on the inner wall of the stainless steel cylinder. The friction heat generated can preheat the stainless steel cylinder, making it convenient for the manipulator 120 to perform laser straight seam welding on the stainless steel cylinder.
[0043] Through the joint action of the external rounding mechanism 150 and the internal rounding mechanism 160, not only can the folds and bumps on the inner and outer walls of the stainless steel cylinder be smoothed and rounded, but the stainless steel cylinder can also be preheated so that the robot 120 can smoothly perform laser straight seam welding on the stainless steel cylinder.
