Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of welding tooling, and in particular to an anti-deformation positioning tooling and a method for welding a stainless steel pipe. Background Art

[0002] Stainless steel pipe welding is usually divided into manual welding and automated welding; manual welding usually uses pre-welding of points, and then welding in one direction; the specific operation is to use fixed tooling for pre-fixing during welding, and then reserve the required welding gap, and then pre-fix the fixed pipes through fixed connecting welding points or welding sheets to fix the two pipes together, and then weld along the weld. Existing automated welding is similar to manual welding, with the same previous processing steps, requiring pre-welding of multiple points, and then welding them into one, and welding the pre-welded points together through automated welding.

[0003] The main difficulty in welding lies in the need to align the center of the weld during welding, and to keep the welding gun and the pipe stable when they rotate relative to each other to avoid deformation during welding. Therefore, the pipe needs to be fixed by a fixed tool to prevent welding deformation.

[0004] A stainless steel pipe welding device with authorization announcement number CN117900720B is equipped with a support component that can weld steel pipes of any length and is easy to disassemble and install. In combination with a traction component, it can realize semi-automatic steel pipe welding, thereby improving the efficiency of steel pipe welding. The support component can also adjust the entire device to a coaxial position with the steel pipe, thereby improving the welding accuracy. By setting a unique motion trajectory of the welding part, the welding part can weld a fish scale-shaped weld at the weld of the two steel pipes, thereby making the weld more beautiful and the quality can be guaranteed.

[0005] In the above technical solution, a method of fixing and restricting the pipe is used to prevent deformation during welding. However, this solution can only adapt to one specification of weld width during welding. At the same time, the position of the pipe remains fixed, and the position of the welding gun moves. The argon gas required for welding cannot immerse the welding area, which can easily cause the molten welding wire to react with the gas in the air, thereby affecting the welding quality.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0033] 1.

[0034] 2. Setting up a partition mechanism to divide the weld width can not only facilitate setting the weld width to a fixed value, but also lock the center position of the weld, which is conducive to the alignment and placement of the pipe; the role of the welding gun adjustment frame is to adapt the determined weld width to the swing amplitude of the welding gun. By pushing the synchronous drive adjustment of the structure, the position of the partition mechanism is changed, so that a certain width of weld is obtained between the pipes through the three areas of the partition mechanism. The welding gun adjustment frame changes the swing amplitude of the welding gun accordingly, thereby meeting different welding requirements.

[0035] 3. A partition mechanism is set between two pipes to make the molten material that falls during welding contact with the two pipes, so that the falling molten material is dispersed through the steps by utilizing the step gradient of the partition mechanism, thereby preventing the dripping molten material from hanging on the pipe port and causing poor welding.

[0036] 4. The use of a closed structure can form a complete accommodating cavity with the door frame. The closed cavity formed on the top can accommodate argon gas to be retained in the accommodating cavity. Since the density of argon gas is smaller than that of air under the same conditions, argon gas will be retained in the accommodating cavity, thereby forming an argon gas zone. The outer plate is elastic and can wrap the upper part of the pipe to adapt to pipes of different diameters, and the welding area is in an argon atmosphere, thereby avoiding reaction with gas in the air, thereby greatly improving the welding quality.

The supporting wheel group 22 in this embodiment can refer to Figure 4As shown, it specifically includes two ear plates, and two lifting rollers are rotatably connected between the two ear plates through a rotating shaft. The two upper ends of the cross frame 21 are rotatably connected to rocker arms 23 through fixed shafts, and one end of the two rocker arms 23 is provided with a directional wheel 24 for abutting against the pipe material, and a pusher 25 is provided between the other end of the directional wheel 24 and the cross frame 21 to adjust the swing of the rocker arm 23. In this embodiment, the pusher 25 is set as an electric push rod; the two adjacent support roller groups 22 are fixed by a coupling, and the corresponding structure of the coupling is not shown in the drawings. A driving motor 26 is provided on the cross frame 21 to drive the support roller group 22 through a transmission structure.

[0051] When fixing the pipe, the cross frame 21 is used to hold up the pipe, and the pushing action of the pusher 25 and the lever action of the rocker arm 23 are used to make the directional wheel 24 contact and restrict the pipe. At this time, the pipe can rotate on the axis, but cannot move in the axial direction, thereby achieving the purpose of restricting the pipe, and adjacent cross frames 21 are connected by couplings to synchronize the rotation, thereby achieving synchronous drive.

[0052] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 A door beam frame 3 is fixed on the upper side of the tooling frame 1, and the door beam frame 3 is arranged at the butt joint of the pipes;

[0053] Further, the door beam frame 3 includes a door frame 31 fixed to the upper side of the tooling frame 1, the door frame 31 is in the shape of a gantry, a top plate is also provided on the door frame 31, a round hole is opened on the top plate, a screw 32 passing through the round hole is provided on the door frame 31, a nut 33 is threadedly connected to the screw 32 and contacts the upper side of the door frame 31, so that the screw 32 is supported by the bearing effect of the nut 33, and the lower end of the screw 32 is fixed with a mounting member 34. For specific structure, refer to Figure 5 .

[0054] A guide rod is provided through the top plate, and the guide rod is fixed to the mounting member 34 , so that the position adjustment between the screw rod 32 and the door frame 31 can keep the sliding direction locked through the guidance of the mounting member 34 .

[0055] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8 A conveyor 4 is fixedly mounted on the door beam frame 3, and the conveyor 4 is tilted. The conveyor 4 is used to convey the welding wire; the discharge port of the conveyor 4 is narrowed so that the welding wire can maintain a stable discharge.

[0056] Further, the conveyor 4 includes a conveying tube 41 that can be detachably fixed on the mounting member 34 to guide the welding wire. In this embodiment, a collar is fixed on the mounting member 34, and bolts are connected to the collar to fix the conveyor 4. A through window 42 is provided on the outer periphery of the conveying tube 41, and a wire feeding assembly is fixed on the mounting member 34. The wire feeding assembly is arranged at the through window 42 to feed the welding wire; Figure 8 ;

[0057] The wire feeding assembly includes a fixing member 43 on the fixing mounting member 34, and two wire feeding wheels 45 close to each other are rotatably connected to the fixing member 43. Both wire feeding wheels 45 extend into the transparent window 42 to clamp the welding wire. A motor 44 is fixed on the fixing member 43 and connected to and drives the wire feeding wheels 45. Figure 8 .

[0058] Among them, the motor 44 is connected to an external control device, and the rotation speed of the wire feeding wheel 45 is controlled by controlling the rotation speed of the motor 44. The welding wire interspersed between the two wire feeding wheels 45 is transported by the rotation of the wire feeding wheels 45, and an observation port is also provided on the delivery pipe 41.

[0059] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7 A welding gun adjusting frame 5 is fixedly mounted on the door beam frame 3, and the welding gun adjusting frame 5 is tilted. The welding gun adjusting frame 5 is used to fix the welding gun and drive the welding gun to form a swinging motion;

[0060] Furthermore, the welding gun adjustment frame 5 includes a sleeve 51 rotatably connected to the mounting member 34 via a rotating shaft, and a bolt is also provided on the sleeve 51 to abut and fix the welding gun; a fixing bar 52 is fixed to the sleeve 51, and a linear groove 53 is provided on the fixing bar 52. The setting direction of the fixing bar 52 and the linear groove 53 corresponds to the direction of the welding gun, and a curved frame 54 is fixed to the mounting member 34, and the curved frame 54 is curved to avoid movement restriction when the welding gun swings; an adjuster 55 is fixed to the curved frame 54, and a right-angle plate 56 is connected to the adjuster 55. The adjuster 55 is used to adjust the position of the right-angle plate 56, and a motor 2 57 is fixed to the right-angle plate 56. The motor 2 57 is connected to an external control device, and a crankshaft 58 is fixed on the output shaft of the motor 2 57 and inserted into the linear groove 53; the crankshaft 58 is a non-straight rod shape, which can be referred to Figure 7 .

[0061] The regulator 55 includes a sealing cylinder 551 fixed on the curved frame 54, a fluid is arranged in the sealing cylinder 551, a piston 552 is slidably arranged in the sealing cylinder 551, a push rod 553 is fixed on the piston 552, one end of the push rod 553 passes through the sealing cylinder 551 and is connected to the right angle plate 56, and a curved pipe 554 is connected to the sealing cylinder 551.

[0062] Among them, since the regulator 55 can control the moving position of the right-angle plate 56, the adjustment direction of the right-angle plate 56 is fixed axial and cannot rotate. Therefore, when the position of the right-angle plate 56 moves, the position of the crankshaft 58 will also move; and when the crankshaft 58 is closer to the sleeve 51, the swing amplitude of the welding gun on the sleeve 51 increases, and vice versa.

[0063] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6A separator 6 is fixed to the lower side of the tooling frame 1, and the separator 6 is used to separate the pipes to be welded to form a gap to be welded;

[0064] Furthermore, the separation mechanism 6 includes two slide members 61 fixed on the lower side of the tooling frame 1, and slide grooves are provided on both slide members 61.

The isolation wheel 64 is used to separate the two pipes to be welded. The isolation wheel 64 is arranged on the vertical line of the load-bearing center of the cross frame 21. The lower side of the U-shaped plate 63 is connected to a spring 65. The elastic characteristics of the spring 65 can make the isolation wheel 64 on the slider 62 shrink and descend. The lower end of the spring 65 is fixed to a bottom block 66, and a telescopic sleeve is arranged between the bottom block 66 and the slider 62.

[0065] Specifically, the isolation wheel 64 extends in a step-like manner along the radial direction, and the isolation wheel 64 gradually becomes thinner along the radial direction to be divided into region one, region two, and region three.

[0066] Among them, during welding, the isolation wheel 64 can maintain the distance between the two pipes and prevent the falling molten material from dripping on the pipe mouth of the welding pipe, thereby avoiding welding defects; at the same time, after welding, the formed weld acts on the isolation wheel 64, and the elastic effect of the spring 65 can make the isolation wheel 64 move downward, which is beneficial to the continuous welding of the pipe.
