[0022] Furthermore, in step 8, a special diamond roller is used to perform slow-feed grinding on the welding surface to completely remove the wear-resistant layer alloy of the transition concave R zone between the welding surface and the non-working surface. The transition radius of the transition concave R zone is R0.9mm, and it smoothly transitions with both sides of the welding surface and the non-working surface.

[0023] Furthermore, in step 9, the defects and displays are checked with a post-emulsification 4-level sensitivity to obtain the defect size, number and spacing, and determine whether they are qualified based on the designed threshold.

[0024] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0035] like Figure 5As shown, the welding fixture includes a connecting seat 22, and the connecting seat 22 is installed with a servo motor 23. The transmission shaft of the servo motor 23 is fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 18 through a coupling 17, and the end of the connecting shaft 18 is fixedly connected to a fixture assembly, and the fixture assembly includes a fixture body 201, and the fixture body 201 limits the turbine blade through a limit block assembly; the limit block assembly includes a limit block A202 and a limit block B203 respectively arranged in the middle of the upper end surface of the fixture body 201, and the limit block assembly also includes a limit block C204, a limit block D205, a limit block E206 and a limit block F207 arranged on the left and right sides of the fixture body 201, and the limit block C204 and the limit block D205 are fixedly arranged on one side of the upper end surface of the fixture body 201; the limit block E206 and the limit block F207 are arranged on the other side of the upper end surface of the fixture body 201, and are rotatably connected to the side of the fixture body 201; the limit block The positioning block E206 and the limiting block F207 are connected by a connecting rod 208 and move synchronously. The clamp assembly also includes a cylinder 209, which is fixed to the lower end surface of the clamp body 201 through a cylinder base; the cylinder 209 drives the connecting rod 208, and the connecting rod 208 drives the limiting block E206 and the limiting block F207 to move; the clamp assembly also includes two groups of clamping assemblies, each group of clamping assemblies includes a rotary clamping cylinder 211, which is installed on the The clamping block 212 is at the top of the rotary clamping cylinder 211; the rotary clamping cylinder 211 passes through the clamp body 201 to drive the connected clamping block 212 to rotate and clamp the turbine blade; one group of clamping components first obliquely presses the upper surface 8 of the edge plate of the tenon 3, and while pressing the lower surface 7 of the edge plate, the tenon 3 is subjected to tangential force so that the bottom surface 4 of the tenon is close to each other, and then the other group of clamping components presses the blade body 2 close to the side of the blade crown 1 in a basin-like manner so that the blade body positioning point 12 is close to each other.

[0036] The stop block B203 is L-shaped, including a vertical surface and a bottom surface. The contact end surface of the stop block assembly and the clamping assembly with the turbine blade is a plane or a curved surface.

[0037] The clamp assembly also includes an embedded double bearing 213, which is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 18, and the embedded double bearing 213 is fixed to the connecting seat 22 through an embedded double bearing seat 214. A positioning ball 21 is provided on the clamp body 201; the contact point between the turbine blade and the clamp is the positioning point. In addition, the contact surface between the limit block assembly, the clamp assembly and the turbine blade is a plane or an arc surface.

[0038] The servo motor 23 of this fixture can be programmed to flip precisely. In addition, this fixture tooling has a reserved quick-change interface, that is, the position of the connecting shaft 18. When it is necessary to weld turbine blades of different models, the fixture assembly that is suitable for its model can be quickly installed on the fixture tooling to achieve precise positioning and automated welding functions. This fixture uses the bottom surface 4 of the tenon to locate and constrain the length direction of the turbine blade. Since the tenon profiles of various turbine blades are composed of planes and arc surfaces, according to their different profiles, the contact end faces of the limit block assembly and the clamping assembly with the turbine blade can be cylindrical surfaces, so as to position and contact with the tenon 3 of the turbine blade; the bottom surface 7 of the edge plate of the tenon 3 is used for positioning, and the upper surface 8 of the edge plate is pressed to locate and constrain the height direction of the turbine blade. The clamping assembly is selected for oblique clamping, and the tangential force direction is in the direction of the bottom surface 4 of the tenon; the small plane of the first side surface 5 of the tenon is used for positioning, and the second side surface of the tenon is used for positioning. 6 is pressed to constrain the circumferential direction to prevent the turbine blades from rotating in the circumferential direction; the blade body positioning point 12 is supported and the pressing component is pressed toward the blade body pressing point 13 to prevent the blade crown 1 from tilting in the height direction due to the excessive length of the turbine blade, and also avoids the positioning deviation caused by the processing error, wherein the blade body positioning point 12 is preferably supported by a cylindrical surface positioning contact support; the blade crown first side surface 9 and the blade crown second side surface 10 non-residue positioning points are used as auxiliary positioning mechanisms to perform auxiliary assembly and limit during the turbine blade assembly fixture process, and are not used as clamping positioning references.

[0039] Reference Figure 6 , the clamping steps of this fixture for turbine blades are:

[0040] 1. First, the side of the fixture body 201 and the positioning ball 21 are used to jointly establish the tooling reference. The side of the fixture body 201 and the positioning ball 21 are first detected by three-coordinates to determine whether their positions and angles meet the dimensions of the fixture design drawing;

[0041] 2. Start positioning and clamping the turbine blade, operate the cylinder 209 to move the limit blocks E206 and F207 away from the fixture body 201, and fit the tenon bottom surface 4 and the first tenon side surface 5 of the turbine blade to the vertical surface of the limit block B203 and the limit block D205 respectively; the edge plate bottom surface 7 fits the bottom surface of the limit block B203; the first side surface 9 of the blade crown of the turbine blade fits the limit block C204; the blade body positioning point 12 fits (or has a gap) with the limit block A202; control the cylinder 209 again, the limit blocks E206 and F207 approach the fixture body 201, so that the limit blocks E206 and F207 respectively fit and press against the second side surface 10 of the blade crown and the second side surface 6 of the tenon; control the rotary clamping cylinder 211, so that the two clamping blocks 212 respectively and sequentially press the upper surface of the edge plate 8 and the blade body clamping point 13.

[0042] An automated welding method for a blade wear-resistant layer based on the above-mentioned welding fixture comprises the following steps:

[0043] Step 1: Pre-welding processing and positioning of turbine blades

[0044] The tenon 3 is used as the positioning reference to process the welding surface; the tenon 3 is processed to the final size of the design drawing, the tolerance of the blade body positioning point 12 is not greater than 0.02mm, and the tolerance of the blade body positioning point 12 is not greater than 0.01mm. Local grinding is allowed to ensure the size and tolerance of the blade body positioning point 12.

[0045] Step 2: Welding fixture positioning accuracy detection

[0046] According to the size and accuracy requirements of the fixture design drawings, the fixture positioning points are tested by a three-coordinate measuring machine, which meets the size accuracy and technical requirements of the fixture design drawings. The fixture base tolerance is not greater than 0.02mm.

[0047] Step 3: Cleaning the turbine blades before welding

[0048] Clean the turbine blades to be welded before welding; use a 50um alumina grinding wheel to grind the welding surface and adjacent areas to reveal the metallic luster; the adjacent areas are within 6mm on both sides of the welding surface, and the grinding on both sides is not less than 6mm, and the grinding depth is not more than 0.05mm. Then steam degreasing and anhydrous ethanol cleaning are performed on the turbine blades, and auxiliary ultrasonic cleaning can also be used. No oil stains or foreign objects are allowed to exist to meet the design requirements.

[0049] Step 4: Turbine blade clamping verification

[0050] Clamp the turbine blade to ensure that the tenon 3 and the blade body positioning point 12 are in contact and pressed tightly, and use a feeler gauge to test the pressing position. A 0.1mm feeler gauge ensures that it cannot be inserted. This step can also use high-precision line laser visual inspection to verify whether the clamping accuracy meets the requirements for automated welding of the turbine blade wear-resistant layer.

[0051] Step 5: TIG welding machine welding procedure inspection and verification

[0052] The spatial angle between the arc and the wire is 38 degrees, and when the front end of the wire is extended between the tungsten electrode and the surface to be welded, the distance between the front end of the wire and the tip of the tungsten electrode is 2.0±0.2mm; check whether the wire is spheroidized. If the spheroidization diameter is greater than 2 times the wire diameter, the cutting process needs to be added, and the extension length needs to be adjusted. The straight wire length should be retracted by 0.5mm relative to the test position.

[0053] Step 6: Automated welding of turbine blades

[0054] Set the argon arc welding machine movement parameters: Y-axis movement distance 8.5mm, Y-axis speed 35mm / min, X-axis swing time 0.5s, X-axis swing amplitude 2.5mm, X-axis positive and negative swing dwell time 0.5s; welding process parameters: DC positive connection, welding current 35A, rise and fall time 0.2s, shielding gas flow 15L / min; wire feeding parameters: wire feeding diameter 1.2mm, wire feeding speed 120mm / min, arc retraction time 0.5s.

[0055] Step 7: Vacuum stress relief

[0056] After welding, the turbine blades are placed in a vacuum heat treatment furnace for stress relief treatment. The vacuum heat treatment furnace is heated to an operating temperature of 760°C±10°C, kept warm for 1.5 hours, and then filled with argon gas for cooling.

[0057] Step 8: Slow-feed grinding

[0058] After stress relief, a special diamond roller with a grinding shape matching the welding surface is used to completely remove the wear-resistant layer alloy of the transition concave R zone 14 between the welding surface and the non-working surface. The transition radius of the transition concave R zone 14 is R0.9mm, and it transitions smoothly with both sides of the welding surface and the non-working surface.

[0059] Step 9: Fluorescence test

[0060] The turbine blades after slow-feed grinding are immersed in fluorescent liquid, and the post-emulsification method is selected with a 4-level sensitivity to check defects and display, obtain the defect size, number and spacing, and determine whether it is qualified based on the design threshold.
