Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of laser welding, and in particular to a handheld laser welding device and a control method thereof, and a handheld laser welding control panel. Background Art
[0002] Laser welding technology is a laser material processing technology. It can use existing laser welding equipment to weld any part and angle of the workpiece to achieve precise marking, cutting or engraving. It is widely used in laser processing fields such as welding, cutting, marking or engraving.
[0003] Handheld laser welding has become a new trend in the welding market because of its small heat-affected zone, non-deformation of plates, fine welds, deep and strong molten pools, good molten pool uniformity and consistency, small restrictions on welding materials, and wide application range.
[0004] At present, in the handheld laser welding equipment on the market, each welding component is independently equipped with a control board, and each is independently controlled by the controller in each control board. For example, the monitoring and light control of the laser are completed by the laser controller, the control of the wire feeder is completed by the wire feeder controller, and the control and monitoring of the handheld welding gun head are also realized by an independent MCU (Micro Control Unit). The independent control of the welding components by their respective controllers makes the whole handheld laser welding equipment not highly integrated, and makes its electronic control system very complicated. The communication between the controllers causes the system to have low real-time performance and long communication cycle. The signal is easy to cause interference during the transmission of the equipment. The stability of the equipment is not high, which will affect the use experience of the product under complex working conditions. In addition, since the handheld laser welding equipment will become hot after working for a long time, the poor heat dissipation causes the poor stability and reliability of the handheld laser welding equipment, so that the laser is not allowed to perform welding operations continuously, and an external air cooling system or air-conditioned room is required to assist the heat dissipation of the handheld laser welding equipment, resulting in a large footprint of the handheld laser welding equipment and high cost of use.

In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0039] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in this specification and in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.
[0040] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0041] Laser welding technology is a laser material processing technology. It can use existing laser welding equipment to weld any part and angle of the workpiece to achieve precise marking, cutting or engraving. It is widely used in laser processing fields such as welding, cutting, marking or engraving.
[0042] Laser welding technology is increasingly used in cutting and welding, extending from industrial to civilian applications, replacing traditional arc welding, argon arc welding and other welding methods. Traditional welding methods require companies or enterprises to recruit professional welder technicians with welder qualification certificates, which has high labor costs. In addition, traditional welding methods have high requirements for operating skills. It takes a long time to achieve perfect pendulum welding and fish scale welding effects, and the welding speed is slow and the processing efficiency is low. Traditional welding methods have a large heat-affected zone, so the plate is easy to bend and deform, and the size of the welded workpiece is uneven, and consistency cannot be guaranteed.
[0043] The welds of traditional welding methods are rough and irregular, and secondary processing and polishing are required after welding, which is time-consuming and laborious. In terms of welding quality, handheld laser welding has a small heat-affected zone, the plate is not easily deformed, the weld is fine, the molten pool is deep and strong, the molten pool is uniform and consistent, the material restrictions on welding are small, and the application range is wide. Novices only need a few hours to read the instruction manual to start working. As a result, handheld laser welding has become a new trend in the market.
[0044] At present, each welding component in the handheld laser welding equipment on the market is independently controlled by its own controller. For example, the welding machine realizes human-computer interaction through a touch screen, a mobile phone Bluetooth APP and a button knob, and the control of the welding process is completed in the control box. The monitoring and light control of the laser are completed by the laser controller, the control of the wire feeder is completed by the wire feeder controller, and the control and monitoring of the handheld welding gun head are also realized by an independent MCU (Micro Control Unit). The independent control of the welding component controller makes the entire handheld laser welding equipment electronic control system very complicated, the material BOM (Bill of Material) cost is high, the communication between controllers causes the system to have low real-time performance and long communication cycle, the signal is easy to cause interference during the transmission of the equipment, the stability of the equipment is not high, and it will affect the product experience in complex working conditions. At present, the control board of the laser, the control board of the wire feeder and the control board of the handheld welding gun head are all independently set, and the integration is not high. In addition, since the handheld laser welding equipment will become hot after working for a long time, the poor heat dissipation causes the stability and reliability of the operation of the handheld laser welding equipment to be poor, which does not allow the laser to perform continuous welding operations, and an external air cooling system or air-conditioned room is required to assist in the heat dissipation of the handheld laser welding equipment, resulting in the handheld laser welding equipment occupying a large area and high cost of use.
[0045] To this end, the present invention provides an integrated handheld laser welding device, including a handheld laser welding control board and welding equipment, the welding equipment including a laser, a wire feeder, a handheld welding gun head and a heat dissipation device; by integrating a main controller, a laser external control interface, a wire feeder interface, a handheld welding gun head interface and a heat dissipation device interface on the handheld laser welding control board, the main controller is respectively communicated with the laser, the wire feeder and the handheld welding gun head through the laser external control interface, the wire feeder interface, the handheld welding gun head interface and the heat dissipation device interface, so as to realize control and monitoring of the laser, the wire feeder, the handheld welding gun head and the heat dissipation device. Therefore, unified control and monitoring of the laser, wire feeder, handheld welding gun head and heat dissipation device are integrated in the handheld laser welding equipment, with high integration, and the main controller is used to uniformly control and monitor the laser, wire feeder and handheld welding gun head. The laser, wire feeder and handheld welding gun head no longer need to be individually controlled by their own independent control panels, making the electronic control system of the entire handheld laser welding equipment very simple, with low material BOM cost, high real-time communication and short communication cycle between the main controller and the laser, wire feeder and handheld welding gun head, and the signal is not easy to cause interference during the transmission of the equipment. The equipment has high stability and reliability, and the product experience is improved in complex working conditions. In addition, the welding equipment is integrated with a heat dissipation device, and the handheld laser welding control board is integrated with unified control and monitoring of the heat dissipation device, which can allow the laser to perform welding operations continuously, and there is no need to use an external air cooling system or air-conditioned room to assist in the heat dissipation of the handheld laser welding equipment, so that the handheld laser welding equipment occupies a small area and has a low cost of use, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the handheld laser welding equipment during long-term operation. This can solve the problem that the existing handheld laser welding equipment has low integration because each welding component is independently controlled by its own control board, and the handheld laser welding equipment has poor stability and reliability due to poor heat dissipation during long-term operation.
[0046] In order to facilitate understanding of the above inventive concept of the present invention, the above inventive concept of the present invention is described in more detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0047] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a handheld laser welding device 100, including a handheld laser welding control panel 10 and a welding device 20, wherein:
[0048] The welding device 20 includes a laser 22, a wire feeder 23, a handheld welding gun head 24 and a heat sink 27;
[0049] The handheld laser welding control board 10 includes a main controller 11, a laser external control interface 12, a wire feeder interface 13, a handheld welding gun head interface 14 and a heat sink interface 17. The main controller 11 is respectively connected to the laser 22, the wire feeder 23, the handheld welding gun head 24 and the heat sink 27 through the laser external control interface 12, the wire feeder interface 13, the handheld welding gun head interface 14 and the heat sink interface 17 to realize control and monitoring of the laser 22, the wire feeder 23, the handheld welding gun head 24 and the heat sink 27.
[0050] In this embodiment, a handheld laser welding device is provided, including a handheld laser welding control board and a welding device, wherein: the welding device includes a laser, a wire feeder, a handheld welding gun head and a heat dissipation device; the handheld laser welding control board includes a main controller, a laser external control interface, a wire feeder interface, a handheld welding gun head interface and a heat dissipation device interface, and the main controller communicates with the laser, the wire feeder and the handheld welding gun head through the laser external control interface, the wire feeder interface, the handheld welding gun head interface and the heat dissipation device interface, respectively, to realize control and monitoring of the laser, the wire feeder, the handheld welding gun head and the heat dissipation device. Therefore, unified control and monitoring of the laser, wire feeder, handheld welding gun head and heat dissipation device are integrated in the handheld laser welding equipment, with high integration, and the main controller is used to uniformly control and monitor the laser, wire feeder and handheld welding gun head. The laser, wire feeder and handheld welding gun head no longer need to be individually controlled by their own independent control panels, making the electronic control system of the entire handheld laser welding equipment very simple, with low material BOM cost, high real-time communication and short communication cycle between the main controller and the laser, wire feeder and handheld welding gun head, and the signal is not easy to cause interference during the transmission of the equipment. The equipment has high stability and reliability, and the product experience is improved in complex working conditions. In addition, the welding equipment is integrated with a heat dissipation device, and the handheld laser welding control board is integrated with unified control and monitoring of the heat dissipation device, which can allow the laser to perform welding operations continuously, and there is no need to use an external air cooling system or air-conditioned room to assist in the heat dissipation of the handheld laser welding equipment, so that the handheld laser welding equipment occupies a small area and has a low cost of use, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the handheld laser welding equipment during long-term operation. This can solve the problem that the existing handheld laser welding equipment has low integration because each welding component is independently controlled by its own control board, and the handheld laser welding equipment has poor stability and reliability due to poor heat dissipation during long-term operation.
[0051] In one embodiment, the handheld laser welding control panel 10 includes a laser external control interface 12 , and the main controller 11 is communicatively connected with the laser 22 via the laser external control interface 12 to achieve control and monitoring of the laser 22 .
[0052] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the laser external control interface 12 includes an enable light output sub-interface, a power sub-interface, a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) pulse signal sub-interface, an emergency stop interlock signal sub-interface, and an alarm output sub-interface. The laser external control interface 12 directly drives the pump source to output to the laser 22 through the enable light output sub-interface, the power sub-interface, and the PWM pulse signal sub-interface, detects the external emergency stop interlock signal through the emergency stop interlock signal sub-interface, and outputs the alarm of the laser 22 through the alarm output sub-interface.
[0053] The main controller 11 includes a first general-purpose input / output (GPIO) pin GPIO1, a second general-purpose input / output pin GPIO2, a third general-purpose input / output pin GPIO3, a first digital-to-analog converter (DAC) pin DAC1 and a first timer Timer1, wherein:
[0054] The first general purpose input and output pin GPIO1 is connected to the enable light output sub-interface of the laser external control interface 12. The main controller 11 outputs an enable light output signal or a stop enable light output signal to the laser 22 connected to the enable light output sub-interface through the first general purpose input and output pin GPIO1, so that the laser 22 outputs laser or stops outputting laser. When the output allows the enable light output signal, the laser 22 is enabled to output laser, and when the output stops the enable light output signal, the laser 22 stops outputting laser.
[0055] The second general input and output pin GPIO2 is connected to the emergency stop interlock signal sub-interface of the laser external control interface 12. The main controller 11 detects the external emergency stop interlock signal through the second general input and output pin GPIO2 and the emergency stop interlock signal sub-interface, and when the emergency stop interlock signal is detected, the main controller 11 is controlled to output a stop enable light output signal to stop the laser 22 from outputting laser.
[0056] The third general input and output pin GPIO3 is connected to the alarm output sub-interface of the laser external control interface. The main controller 11 outputs the alarm signal of the laser 22 to the laser 22 connected to the alarm output sub-interface through the third general input and output pin GPIO3, so that the laser 22 outputs the alarm signal.
[0057] The first digital-to-analog converter pin DAC1 is connected to the power sub-interface of the laser external control interface, and is used for the main controller 11 to output a power adjustment signal to the laser 22 connected to the power sub-interface through the first digital-to-analog converter pin DAC1, so that the laser 22 adjusts the output power according to the power adjustment signal, and the power can be adjusted between 0-10V.
[0058] The first timer Timer1 is connected to the PWM pulse signal sub-interface of the laser external control interface 12, and is used for the main controller 11 to output a PWM pulse signal to the laser 22 connected to the PWM pulse signal sub-interface through the first timer Timer1, so that the laser 22 outputs PWM pulses according to the PWM pulse signal.
[0059] It is understandable that the main controller 11 is an integrated circuit chip with signal processing capability. The main controller may be a general-purpose processor, a DSP, or other programmable logic devices, and the general-purpose processor may be a microprocessor or any conventional processor. For example, the main controller 11 is an MCU (Microcontroller Unit) or an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array).
[0060] In one embodiment, the main controller 11 is connected to the wire feeder 23 through the wire feeder interface 13 to achieve control and monitoring of the wire feeder 23 .
[0061] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the wire feeder interface 13 includes at least one motor drive sub-interface for receiving a SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) drive signal output by the main controller.
[0062] The main controller 11 includes a first serial peripheral device interface pin SPI 1, and the first serial peripheral device interface pin SPI 1 is connected to the motor drive sub-interface of the wire feeder interface 13. Since the drive of the wire feeder 23 is integrated on the main controller 11 of the handheld laser welding control board 10, the main controller 11 outputs a first SPI drive signal through the first serial peripheral device interface pin SPI 1 to drive the motor drive chip to drive the wire feeder 23, so that the main controller 11 can control the enable switch, running direction and speed of the wire feeder 23.
[0063] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the wire feeder interface 13 includes two motor drive sub-interfaces to form a dual wire feeder interface. Two wire feeders 23 can be connected and driven through the two motor drive sub-interfaces.
[0064] In one embodiment, the main controller 11 is in communication connection with the handheld welding gun head 24 via the handheld welding gun head interface 14 to achieve control and monitoring of the handheld welding gun head 24 .
[0065] Specifically, Figure 3As shown, the handheld welding gun head interface 14 includes a galvanometer drive sub-interface, a first RS485 communication sub-interface (RS485 communication 1) and a safety lock sub-interface.
[0066] The main controller 11 includes a second digital-to-analog converter pin DAC2, a fourth universal asynchronous receiver transmitter (UART) pin UART4 and a fourth general purpose input and output pin GPIO4, wherein:
[0067] The second digital-to-analog converter pin DAC2 is connected to the galvanometer drive sub-interface. The main controller 11 outputs a DAC signal to the galvanometer connected to the galvanometer drive sub-interface through the second digital-to-analog converter pin DAC2 to control the oscillation of the galvanometer.
[0068] The fourth universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter pin UART4 is connected to the first RS485 communication sub-interface. The handheld laser welding control board 10 also includes a galvanometer drive module. The main controller 11 establishes a serial communication connection with the galvanometer drive module connected to the first RS485 communication sub-interface through the fourth universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter pin UART4, and reads the status and alarm of the handheld welding gun head 24 connected to the galvanometer drive module.
[0069] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the welding equipment 20 also includes a LOOP safety lock 25, and the main controller 11 of the handheld laser welding control panel 10 is connected to the LOOP safety lock 25 for communication, so as to control the LOOP safety lock 25. The LOOP safety lock 25 is also connected to the workpiece and the handheld welding gun head 24, and the LOOP safety lock 25 plays a role of safety protection. The main controller 11 can only allow the laser 22 to emit light normally when the welding wire of the handheld welding gun head 24 must be in contact with the workpiece. When the handheld welding gun head 24 is not in contact with the workpiece, the main controller 11 does not allow the laser 22 to emit light, thereby playing a role of safety protection.
[0070] Specifically, the fourth general input and output pin GPIO4 is connected to the safety lock sub-interface, and the main controller 11 is connected to the LOOP safety lock 25 through the fourth general input and output pin GPIO4 and the safety lock sub-interface, and detects the signal of the LOOP safety lock 25 welded to the safety lock sub-interface, and obtains the safety lock signal. After the welding wire of the handheld welding gun head 24 contacts the workpiece, the LOOP safety lock 25 will be triggered to release. At this time, the main controller 11 detects the signal of the LOOP safety lock 25 through the fourth general input and output pin GPIO4 and the safety lock sub-interface, and obtains the safety lock signal. At this time, when the main controller 11 detects the signal of the LOOP safety lock 25, the main controller 11 outputs the enable light output signal to the laser 22 through the first general input and output pin GPIO1, and the laser 22 outputs the laser; when the main controller 11 does not detect the signal of the LOOP safety lock 25, the main controller 11 outputs the stop enable light output signal to the laser 22 through the first general input and output pin GPIO1, and the laser 22 stops outputting the laser.
[0071] In some optional embodiments, when the spatial positions of the handheld welding gun head 24 and the laser 22 are far apart, a separate controller may be provided inside the handheld welding gun head 24 for communication and interaction between the main controller 11 and the handheld welding gun head 24 .
[0072] In the prior art, since handheld laser welding equipment will become hot after working for a long time, the laser is not allowed to perform welding operations continuously, and an external air cooling system or air-conditioned room is required to assist in the heat dissipation of the handheld laser welding equipment, resulting in the handheld laser welding equipment occupying a large area and having high usage costs.
[0073] To this end, in one embodiment, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the welding equipment 20 includes a heat sink 27, the handheld laser welding control panel 10 includes a heat sink interface 17, and the main controller 11 is communicated with the heat sink 27 via the heat sink interface 17 to achieve control and monitoring of the heat sink 27. The heat sink 27 can achieve heat dissipation for the laser pump source, optical fiber and main controller.
[0074] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the heat dissipation device 27 includes an air-cooled heat dissipation fan 271 to achieve heat dissipation for the laser pump source, optical fiber and main controller.
[0075] The handheld laser welding control board 10 includes a heat sink interface 17 , and the heat sink interface 17 includes a cooling fan sub-interface 171 . The main controller 11 is connected to the air-cooled cooling fan 271 through the cooling fan sub-interface 171 to control the air-cooled cooling fan 271 .
[0076] The cooling fan sub-interface 171 includes a fan enable sub-interface and an H-bridge MOS drive sub-interface. The main controller 11 includes a sixth general purpose input and output pin GPIO6 and a second timer Timer2, wherein:
[0077] The sixth general input and output pin GPIO6 is connected to the fan enable sub-interface. The main controller 11 is connected to the air-cooled cooling fan 271 through the sixth general input and output pin GPIO6 and the fan enable sub-interface to realize switch control of the air-cooled cooling fan 271. Specifically, the main controller 11 outputs a fan enable signal through the sixth general input and output pin GPIO6 to the air-cooled cooling fan 271 through the fan enable sub-interface to start the air-cooled cooling fan 271.
[0078] The second timer Timer2 is connected to the H-bridge MOS driver sub-interface, and the main controller 11 is connected to the air-cooled heat dissipation fan 271 through the second timer Timer2 and the H-bridge MOS driver sub-interface to realize the speed control of the air-cooled heat dissipation fan 271. Specifically, the main controller 11 outputs a timing control signal through the second timer Timer2 to the H-bridge MOS driver through the H-bridge MOS driver sub-interface, and controls the speed of the air-cooled heat dissipation fan 271 through the H-bridge MOS driver.
[0079] The board of the laser 22 is equipped with a temperature and humidity sensor, which is used to collect the temperature and humidity inside the laser 22. The main controller 11 is connected to the temperature and humidity sensor through the laser external control interface, and obtains the temperature and humidity inside the laser 22 collected by the temperature and humidity sensor in a timer polling manner.
[0080] When the output power of the laser 22 is lower than the preset output power and in the standby state, the main controller 11 does not output the fan enable signal and does not start the air-cooling heat dissipation fan 271 for heat dissipation. When the main controller 11 obtains that the temperature of the laser 22 exceeds the first preset temperature, the main controller 11 outputs the fan enable signal through the sixth general input and output pin GPIO6 to the air-cooling heat dissipation fan 271 through the fan enable sub-interface, and starts the air-cooling heat dissipation fan 271 for heat dissipation. At the same time, the main controller 11 outputs the timing control signal through the second timer Timer2 to the H-bridge MOS driver through the H-bridge MOS driver sub-interface, and controls the speed of the air-cooling heat dissipation fan 271 through the H-bridge MOS driver. This allows the laser 22 to continuously perform welding operations, and improves the stability and reliability of the long-term operation of the handheld laser welding device 100.
[0081] like Figure 3 As shown, the heat dissipation device 27 also includes a refrigerant heat dissipation system 272 to achieve heat dissipation for the laser pump source, optical fiber and main controller.
[0082] The handheld laser welding control panel 10 includes a heat dissipation device interface 17 , and the heat dissipation device interface 17 includes a refrigerant heat dissipation system sub-interface 172 . The main controller 11 is connected to the refrigerant heat dissipation system 272 through the refrigerant heat dissipation system sub-interface 172 to realize control of the refrigerant heat dissipation system 272 .
[0083] Specifically, the refrigerant cooling system sub-interface 172 includes a refrigerant enabling sub-interface and a third RS485 communication sub-interface (RS485 communication 3). The main controller 11 includes a seventh general purpose input and output pin GPIO7 and a fifth universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter pin UART5, wherein:
[0084] The seventh general input and output pin GPIO7 is connected to the refrigerant enable sub-interface. The main controller 11 is connected to the refrigerant cooling system 272 through the seventh general input and output pin GPIO7 and the refrigerant enable sub-interface to realize switch control of the refrigerant cooling system 272. Specifically, the main controller 11 outputs a refrigerant enable signal through the seventh general input and output pin GPIO7 to the refrigerant enable sub-interface to start the refrigerant cooling system 272.
[0085] The fifth universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter pin UART5 is connected to the third RS485 communication sub-interface. The main controller 11 establishes a serial communication connection with the refrigerant cooling system 272 through the fifth universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter pin UART5 and the third RS485 communication sub-interface to realize the cooling mode and temperature control of the refrigerant cooling system 272. Specifically, the main controller 11 reads the status and alarm information of the refrigerant cooling system 272 through the serial communication connection to control the cooling mode and temperature of the refrigerant cooling system 272.
[0086] When the main controller 11 obtains that the temperature of the laser 22 exceeds the second preset temperature (the second preset temperature is greater than the first preset temperature), even if the air-cooled heat dissipation fan 271 is started to dissipate heat for the laser 22, but it is not enough to keep the laser 22 in a stable working state, the main controller 11 outputs a refrigerant enable signal through the seventh general input and output pin GPIO7 to the refrigerant enable sub-interface to the refrigerant heat dissipation system 272, and starts the refrigerant heat dissipation system 272 to dissipate heat. At the same time, the main controller 11 reads the state and alarm information of the refrigerant heat dissipation system through the serial communication connection, and controls the cooling mode and temperature of the refrigerant heat dissipation system 272. This allows the laser 22 to continuously perform welding operations, and improves the stability and reliability of the long-term operation of the handheld laser welding device 100.
[0087] For example, the refrigerant cooling system 272 is a refrigerant cooling compressor, which realizes the heat dissipation of the laser pump source, optical fiber and main controller.
[0088] In this embodiment, the heat dissipation of the laser pump source, optical fiber and main controller is realized by integrating the heat dissipation device 27 in the welding equipment 20, and the handheld laser welding control board integrates the unified control and monitoring of the heat dissipation device. When the output power of the laser 22 is lower than the preset output power and is in the standby state, the main controller 11 does not output the fan enable signal and does not start the air-cooled heat dissipation fan 271 for heat dissipation. When the main controller 11 obtains that the temperature of the laser 22 exceeds the first preset temperature, the main controller 11 outputs the fan enable signal through the sixth general input and output pin GPIO6 to the air-cooled heat dissipation fan 271 through the fan enable sub-interface, and starts the air-cooled heat dissipation fan 271 for heat dissipation. At the same time, the main controller 11 outputs the timing control signal through the second timer Timer2 to the H-bridge MOS driver through the H-bridge MOS driver sub-interface, and controls the speed of the air-cooled heat dissipation fan 271 through the H-bridge MOS driver. As the laser 22 continues to output laser, the temperature of the laser 22 also increases. When the main controller 11 obtains that the temperature of the laser 22 exceeds the second preset temperature, and the air-cooled heat dissipation fan 271 originally started to dissipate heat for the laser 22 is not enough to keep the laser 22 in a stable working state, the main controller 11 outputs a refrigerant enable signal through the seventh general-purpose input and output pin GPIO7 to the refrigerant enable sub-interface to start the refrigerant cooling system 272. At the same time, the main controller 11 reads the status and alarm information of the refrigerant cooling system 272 through the serial port communication connection established with the refrigerant cooling system 272 through the fifth universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter pin UART5 and the third RS485 communication sub-interface, and controls the cooling mode and temperature of the refrigerant cooling system 272. This allows the laser 22 to perform welding operations continuously without the need for an external air cooling system or air-conditioned room to assist in cooling the handheld laser welding device 100, so that the handheld laser welding device 100 occupies a small area and has a low cost of use, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the handheld laser welding device 100 during long-term operation.

This can solve the problem that the existing handheld laser welding equipment has low integration due to the independent control of each welding component by its own control panel, and the handheld laser welding equipment has poor heat dissipation after long-term operation, resulting in poor stability and reliability of the handheld laser welding equipment.
[0128] It should be noted that the above-mentioned handheld laser welding control board embodiment and the handheld laser welding equipment embodiment belong to the same concept, and the specific implementation process is detailed in the handheld laser welding equipment embodiment, and the technical features in the handheld laser welding equipment embodiment are correspondingly applicable in the above-mentioned handheld laser welding control board embodiment, which will not be repeated here.
[0129] Based on the same concept, in one embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the present invention also provides a handheld laser welding equipment control method, which is applied to the handheld laser welding equipment described in any of the above embodiments, and the handheld laser welding equipment control method includes:
[0130] S1. The main controller reads the welding process parameters sent by the human-machine interaction device, and uploads the status and alarm of the welding equipment to the human-machine interaction device. Specifically including:
[0131] The human-computer interaction device includes a host computer. The user sets the parameter configuration of the laser in the software of the host computer.

As the laser continues to output laser, the temperature of the laser also increases. When the main controller obtains that the temperature of the laser exceeds the second preset temperature, and the original air-cooling cooling fan is not enough to cool the laser to keep the laser in a stable working state, the main controller outputs a refrigerant enable signal through the seventh general input and output pin to the refrigerant cooling system through the refrigerant enable sub-interface to start the refrigerant cooling system. At the same time, the main controller reads the state and alarm information of the refrigerant cooling system through the serial communication connection established with the refrigerant cooling system through the fifth general asynchronous receiver and transmitter pin and the third RS485 communication sub-interface, and controls the cooling mode and temperature of the refrigerant cooling system. This allows the laser to perform welding operations continuously, and there is no need to use an external air cooling system or air-conditioned room to assist in cooling the handheld laser welding equipment, so that the handheld laser welding equipment occupies a small area and has a low cost of use, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the handheld laser welding equipment during long-term operation.
[0137] S4. The main controller detects the external light control command and controls the laser to output laser.
[0138] When the handheld laser welding equipment is in robot mode, the IO laser output is controlled by reading the external control IO signal; if the handheld laser welding equipment is in handheld welding mode, the button of the handheld welding gun head is read to obtain the light control command to control the laser output.

Therefore, the handheld laser welding control board integrates unified control and monitoring of the laser, wire feeder, handheld welding gun head and heat dissipation device, with high integration, so that the communication between the main controller and the laser, wire feeder and handheld welding gun head is real-time and short, and the signal is not easy to cause interference during transmission. It has high stability and reliability, which improves the product usage experience in complex working conditions. The handheld laser welding control board integrates unified control and monitoring of the heat dissipation device, which can allow the external laser to perform welding operations continuously, and there is no need to use an external air cooling system or air-conditioned room to assist in the heat dissipation of the handheld laser welding control board, which makes the handheld laser welding control board low in cost and improves the handheld laser welding control The stability and reliability of the long-term operation of the board making; and because the main controller is used to uniformly control and monitor the laser, wire feeder and handheld welding gun head, the laser, wire feeder and handheld welding gun head no longer need to be controlled separately by their own independent control panels, making the electronic control system of the handheld laser welding equipment containing the handheld laser welding control panel very simple, with low material BOM cost and low use cost. The handheld laser welding control panel integrates the unified control and monitoring of the heat dissipation device, and there is no need to use an external air cooling system or air-conditioned room to assist the heat dissipation of the handheld laser welding equipment, so that the handheld laser welding equipment occupies a small area and has a low use cost, and improves the stability and reliability of the long-term operation of the handheld laser welding equipment.
