However, for the field of shipbuilding heavy industry, since shipbuilding heavy industry is mostly thick steel plate welding, it is particularly important to control welding deformation in thick plate welding.

[0063] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, this embodiment provides an arc-guided laser hybrid welding device, which includes a mounting frame 1 and a laser welding head 2, a laser rangefinder 3, a welding gun 4, a protective gas blowing member 5, a weld seam tracker 6, an air knife 7 and a dust cover 8, which can be detachably mounted on the mounting frame 1. The laser rangefinder 3 is used to measure the distance between the laser welding head 2 and the surface of the workpiece to be welded, and the distance between the laser welding head 2 and the surface of the workpiece to be welded is measured along the welding direction of the hybrid welding device (such as Figure 3 and Fig. 9The welding gun 4 and the protective gas blowing member 5 are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the laser welding head 2, and the weld seam tracking sensor is located on the front side of the welding gun 4. The welding gun 4 and the protective gas blowing member 5 are both adjustable in position along the X-axis direction, the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction. The weld seam tracking sensor is adjustable in position along the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction. The protective gas blowing member 5 is used to blow protective gas to the welding position. The weld seam tracking sensor is used to detect the weld position, wherein the X-axis direction is consistent with the welding direction of the composite welding device; along the Y-axis direction, the air knife 7 and the dust hood 8 are respectively located on both sides of the laser welding head 2, the air knife 7 is adjustable in position along the Z-axis direction and the angle is adjustable around the X-axis direction, the dust hood is adjustable in position along the Z-axis direction and the angle is adjustable around the X-axis direction, the air knife 7 is used to blow compressed air to the welding position, the dust hood 8 is connected to the external negative pressure equipment through a hose, and the dust hood 8 is used to absorb the smoke generated by welding. By arranging the welding gun 4, the protective gas blowing part 5, the air knife 7 and the dust cover 8 on the peripheral side of the laser welding head 2, the composite welding device has relatively complete functions, high integration, and high overall space utilization; the laser rangefinder 3, the air knife 7 and the dust cover 8 that follow the welding can timely and effectively ensure the smoothness and accuracy of the welding process, and extend the service life of the protective lens of the laser welding head 2, and each component does not need to be repeatedly operated separately during the welding process, reducing the cumbersomeness of the welding process; the arc-guided laser welding is also realized by the welding gun 4 in front, the heat input is relatively uniform, and the coupling effect of the two heat sources is better, so that the weld forming effect is better, which can be better applied to thick plate welding; at the same time, by arranging the position-adjustable weld tracker 6 in front of the position-adjustable welding gun 4, not only the accuracy of welding can be guaranteed, but also the debugging time can be saved, and the convenience of test operation and welding efficiency can be improved. The composite welding device not only has a high degree of integration, but also the independence of each functional component is strong, which is convenient for replacement and maintenance, and can also achieve compatibility of different models of each component, improving the convenience, practicality and scope of application.

[0064] Among them, the laser rangefinder 3 can be a commercially available laser rangefinder 3, and the laser rangefinder 3 is fixed to the mounting frame 1 by bolts or other mounting methods, so that the laser rangefinder 3 and the laser welding head 2 can follow each other, and there is no need to repeatedly measure the distance between the laser welding head 2 and the surface of the workpiece to be welded during the welding process. That is, when the composite welding device welds the workpiece to be welded, as it moves along the welding direction, the laser rangefinder 3 moves accordingly, and can measure the distance from the laser welding head 2 to the surface of the workpiece to be welded in real time, and then can quickly and accurately determine the value of the defocus amount, ensure the accuracy of laser welding, and simplify the test operation.

[0065] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the arc-guided laser hybrid welding device also includes a robot 10, and the mounting frame 1 can be detachably connected to the mounting flange tooling of the robot 10. The mounting frame 1 is driven by the robot 10 to move, so that the welding gun 4 and the laser welding head 2 move along the weld to weld, thereby realizing automatic welding and precise welding.

[0066] Specifically, the mounting frame 1 includes a main mounting plate 11, which is connected to the mounting flange tooling of the robot 10. The laser welding head 2 is detachably connected to the main mounting plate 11, for example, detachably connected to the main mounting plate 11 by bolts, so that different models of laser welding heads 2 can be replaced to achieve welding of different welding objects.

[0067] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, the mounting frame 1 also includes a first sub-mounting plate 12, which is mounted on the main mounting plate 11. For example, the first sub-mounting plate 12 includes a welding gun connecting plate and a first L-shaped adapter plate. The welding gun connecting plate is mounted on the back of the main mounting plate 11 by bolts for easy disassembly and assembly. The first L-shaped adapter plate is connected to the welding gun connecting plate. In the welding direction, the transverse plate of the first L-shaped adapter plate is located at the front side of the main mounting plate 11 and is parallel to the horizontal plane. The composite welding device also includes a welding gun adjustment mechanism 102, which is detachably connected to the first sub-mounting plate 12, specifically installed on the transverse plate of the first L-shaped adapter plate. The welding gun 4 is connected to the welding gun adjustment mechanism 102, that is, the first sub-mounting plate 12 provides an installation position for the welding gun adjustment mechanism 102, and the welding gun 4 is integrated on the mounting plate through the welding gun adjustment mechanism 102 and the first sub-mounting plate 12. The first sub-mounting plate 12 of the above structure allows the welding gun 4 to have sufficient installation space and has a low possibility of interference with other structures.

[0068] Preferably, a reinforcing plate is connected to the side surface of the first L-shaped adapter plate to improve the structural strength and stability of the first auxiliary mounting plate 12 .

[0069] Preferably, the first auxiliary mounting plate 12 is connected to the main mounting plate 11 in an adjustable position in the Z-axis direction. For example, the main mounting plate 11 is provided with multiple rows of first adjustment holes spaced apart in the Z-axis direction, and the first connecting plate 1031 is connected to one of the rows of first adjustment holes by bolts to achieve adjustment of the first connecting plate 1031 in the Z-axis direction, thereby achieving a large adjustment of the welding gun 4 as a whole in the Z-axis direction, so that when installing the welding gun 4, the installation height of the welding gun 4 can be selected according to the needs. Of course, in other embodiments, the main mounting plate 11 can also be provided with a first strip hole extending in the Z-axis direction to achieve stepless adjustment of the installation height of the welding gun 4.

[0070] Specifically, refer again to Figure 4The welding gun adjustment mechanism 102 includes an X-direction moving table 1021, a Y-direction moving table 1022, a Z-direction moving table 1023 and a welding gun connector 1024. The X-direction moving table 1021 can be detachably mounted on the mounting frame 1, specifically, can be detachably mounted on the horizontal plate of the first L-shaped adapter plate. The Y-direction moving table 1022 is connected to the X-direction moving surface of the X-direction moving table 1021. The Z-direction moving table 1023 is connected to the Y-direction moving surface of the Y-direction moving table 1022. The welding gun connector 1024 is connected to the Z-direction moving surface of the Z-direction moving table 1023. The welding gun 4 can be detachably mounted on the welding gun connector 1024. After the approximate position of the welding gun 4 is determined by the first auxiliary mounting plate 12, the position of the welding gun 4 is finely adjusted by the welding gun adjustment mechanism 102, so that the position accuracy of the welding gun 4 is high. By adjusting the X-direction moving surface of the X-direction moving table 1021, the Y-direction moving table 1022 and the Z-direction moving table 1023 are moved along the X-axis direction, thereby realizing the movement of the welding gun 4 along the X-axis direction. By adjusting the Y-direction moving surface of the Y-direction moving table 1022, the Z-direction moving table 1023 is driven to move along the Y-axis direction, thereby driving the welding gun 4 to move along the Y-axis direction. By adjusting the Z-direction moving surface of the Z-direction moving table 1023, the welding gun 4 is moved along the Z-axis direction. Among them, the X-axis moving table 1021, the Y-axis moving table 1022, and the Z-axis moving table 1023 can be selected from commercially available products, for example, the X-axis moving table 1021 can be selected from the "LSD-65251CR" of "Xin Yin Technology", the Y-axis moving table 1022 can be selected from the "LSD-65251L" of "Xin Yin Technology", and the Z-axis moving table 1023 can be selected from the "LSD-6015Z" of "Xin Yin Technology". The adjustment knob 1023 can realize fine adjustment of the position of the welding gun 4 in the three directions of X, Y and Z, and the adjustment knob has a scale, which can accurately obtain the adjustment displacement, improve the adjustment accuracy and convenience, and the relative position of the welding wire and the focus of the laser welding head 2 can be quantified through the scale knob, which greatly improves the adjustment accuracy of the welding gun 4 position, and the adjustment accuracy can reach 0.01mm, and the knob-type adjustment method is simple and convenient, which is convenient for manual operation, and greatly saves the process debugging time of the position of the welding gun 4 in laser welding. Of course, in other embodiments, the X-axis moving table 1021, the Y-axis moving table 1022, and the Z-axis moving table 1023 can also be other structures or products, as long as the welding gun 4 can be moved in the X-axis direction, the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction. Through the first auxiliary mounting plate 12 and the welding gun adjustment mechanism 102, the precise adjustment of the position of the welding gun 4 is realized, the accuracy of the light wire spacing is guaranteed, and the adjustment through the welding gun adjustment mechanism 102 not only has a high adjustment accuracy and is easy to control the adjustment distance, but also has a simple adjustment process and a short adjustment time.

[0071] Preferably, an insulating adapter plate is provided between the Y-axis moving table 1022 and the Z-axis moving table 1023, so that the Z-axis moving table 1023 and the X-axis moving table 1021 and the Y-axis moving table 1022 below are independent of each other, avoiding current conduction and playing an insulating function. The welding gun 4 and the laser welding head 2 can be insulated to prevent leakage points of the arc welding gun 4 from affecting the working stability of the laser welding head 2.

[0072] More specifically, the welding gun connector 1024 includes a welding gun adapter plate and a welding gun clamping plate. The welding gun adapter plate is detachably connected to the Z-direction moving surface of the Z-direction moving platform 1023, for example, detachably connected by bolts.

Specifically, the blowing member adjustment mechanism 103 includes a first connecting plate 1031, a second connecting plate 1032 and a third connecting plate 1033. The first connecting plate 1031 is adjustably connected to the mounting frame 1 in the Z-axis direction and the Y-axis direction, and is specifically connected to the third auxiliary mounting plate 14. The second connecting plate 1032 is adjustably connected to the first connecting plate 1031 along the X-axis direction.

Preferably, a waist-shaped hole is provided on the first sub-connecting plate, the length of which extends along the Y-axis direction, and the waist-shaped hole is connected to the third adjustment hole by bolts. When connecting the first sub-connecting plate and the third sub-mounting plate 14, by adjusting the alignment position of the waist-shaped hole and the third adjustment hole in the Y-axis direction, and then connecting the bolts to fix the first sub-connecting plate and the third sub-mounting plate 14, the adjustment of the first sub-connecting plate in the Y-axis direction is achieved.

Preferably, the guide groove 5101 is inclined from top to bottom toward the direction close to the laser welding head 2, so that the shielding gas flows toward the laser welding head 2.

[0085] Preferably, the gas exhaust pipe 51 is made of copper, which has a higher melting point and a higher laser reflectivity, and has a longer service life.

[0086] In order to prevent the spatters during welding from damaging the protective lens of the laser welding head 2, the spatters and smoke generated by welding are blown away by the air knife 7. Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the composite welding device also includes a wind knife adjustment mechanism 104, which includes a wind knife adapter plate 1041, a first angle adjustment plate 1042 and a wind knife connecting plate 1043; the wind knife adapter plate 1041 is connected to the mounting frame 1 in an adjustable position in the Z-axis direction; the angle adjustment plate is connected to the wind knife adapter plate 1041, and a rotating hole and a first arc hole are provided on the angle adjustment plate. The wind knife connecting plate 1043 is movably connected to the rotating hole and the first arc hole through a rotating pin and a fixed pin, respectively. The arc center of the first arc hole coincides with the hole center of the rotating hole, and the axial directions of the rotating pin and the fixed pin are consistent with the X-axis direction. The wind knife 7 is detachably mounted on the wind knife connecting plate 1043, and the air outlet of the wind knife 7 faces the welding position. By loosening the fixing pin, the angle adjustment plate can rotate relative to the wind knife adapter plate 1041 with the rotating pin as the axis to adjust the angle of the wind knife 7 thereon. After the adjustment is completed, the rotating pin is tightened to fix the position of the angle adjustment plate and the wind knife adapter plate 1041. The fixing pin can be selected but not limited to a bolt. The above structure is simple and convenient for adjusting the angle of the wind knife 7.

[0087] Preferably, two angle adjustment plates are provided, and the two angle adjustment plates are connected to the wind knife adapter plate 1041 at a relative interval along the X-axis direction. The wind knife connecting plate 1043 includes two connecting rods and a support plate connected between the two connecting rods. The two connecting rods are respectively connected to an angle adjustment plate by a rotating pin and a fixing pin. The wind knife 7 is detachably mounted on the support plate, for example, by bolts. The above structure has high stability, so that the wind knife 7 is not easy to shake when in use, ensuring the effect of blowing off splashes and smoke.

[0088] Exemplarily, in order to avoid interference between the wind knife 7 and other components such as the laser welding head 2, the mounting frame 1 also includes a fourth sub-mounting plate 15, and the fourth sub-mounting plate 15 is adjustably connected to the back of the main mounting plate 11 along the Z-axis direction, where the back refers to the side away from the welding laser head. Specifically, the fourth sub-mounting plate 15 includes a first plate, a second plate and a third plate, the first plate is selectively connected to one or more rows of first adjustment holes on the main mounting plate 11 by bolts, the second plate is perpendicular to the main mounting plate 11, the third plate is perpendicular to the second plate, and is spaced and parallel to the main mounting plate 11, and multiple rows of fourth adjustment holes are opened on the third plate along the Z-axis direction, and the wind knife adapter plate 1041 is selectively connected to one or more rows of fourth adjustment holes by bolts. By setting the wind knife adapter plate 1041 and the fourth sub-mounting plate 15, the wind knife 7 has a larger adjustment space in the Z-axis direction, and under the structure of the fourth sub-mounting plate 15, the wind knife 7 has a certain spacing with the main mounting plate 11, so that the wind knife 7 has sufficient installation space in the Y-axis direction.

[0089] In this embodiment, the wind knife 7 includes a body, which is detachably mounted on the wind knife connecting plate 1043. The body is provided with an air pipe joint for connecting with an external compressed air device. The body has an air outlet section on the side facing the laser welding head 2. The air outlet of the air outlet section faces the laser welding head 2. The air outlet is a rectangle parallel to the Z-axis direction and the X-axis direction. The external compressed air device delivers compressed air into the body and then blows it out through the air outlet of the air outlet section. Preferably, the caliber of the air outlet section in the Z-axis direction gradually narrows toward the direction of the air outlet, which plays a guiding role and increases the air outlet speed. Specifically, the upper wall surface of the air outlet section in the Z-axis direction is tilted downward in the direction close to the air outlet to guide the airflow obliquely downward and finally blown out through the air outlet at high speed to ensure the effect of blowing away splashes and smoke.

[0090] Preferably, the laser welding head 2 is equipped with a coaxial air knife. Through the joint action of the air knife 7 and the coaxial air knife, the protective lens of the laser welding head 2 in the thick plate welding scene of high-power laser has a good protective effect, so that the service life of the protective lens of the laser welding head 2 is longer, the consumption rate of the protective lens is reduced, and it is conducive to reducing costs. It should be noted that the coaxial air knife is a relatively mature existing technology in the field of laser welding, which will not be described one by one here.

[0091] The spatter and smoke generated during the welding process are blown away by the air knife 7 and the coaxial air knife, and then sucked away by the dust hood 8. Specifically, Figure 1 and Fig.11 As shown, the composite welding device also includes a follow-up dust suction adjustment mechanism 105, which includes a dust removal connecting plate 1051, a second angle adjustment plate 1052 and a fixed hoop 1053. The mounting frame 1 also includes a fifth sub-mounting plate 16, which is adjustably connected to the third sub-mounting plate 14 along the Z-axis direction and is parallel to the main mounting plate 11; the dust suction connecting plate is adjustably connected to the mounting frame 1 in the Z-axis direction, specifically connected to the fifth sub-mounting plate 16, the second angle adjustment plate 1052 is adjustably connected to the dust suction connecting plate around the X-axis direction, and the fixed hoop 1053 is fixed on the second angle adjustment plate 1052, and the fixed hoop 1053 includes two rotatably connected holding rings, and the free ends of the two holding rings are detachably connected, for example, by bolts, for tightening or loosening the dust hood 8. By adjusting the positions of the fifth mounting plate 16 and the dust suction connection plate in the Z-axis direction, the position of the dust suction hood 8 in the Z-axis direction can be flexibly adjusted to suit specific welding conditions to ensure the dust suction effect. At the same time, by adjusting the second angle adjustment plate 1052, the angle of the dust suction hood 8 can be adjusted according to the actual welding conditions to ensure that the dust suction port of the dust suction hood 8 is aligned with the spatter and smoke.

[0092] Exemplarily, a plurality of rows of fifth adjustment holes are arranged at intervals along the Z-axis direction on the fifth sub-mounting plate 16, and the dust suction connecting plate is selectively connected to one or more rows of fifth adjustment holes by bolts, and a plurality of sixth adjustment holes are arranged at intervals along the Z-axis direction on the third sub-mounting plate 14, and the fifth sub-mounting plate 16 is selectively connected to the plurality of sixth adjustment holes by bolts, so as to realize coarse adjustment of the position of the fifth sub-mounting plate 16 in the Z-axis direction and fine adjustment of the position of the dust suction connecting plate in the Z-axis direction. In order to avoid interference with other structures, the volumes of the fifth sub-mounting plate 16 and the dust suction connecting plate are limited. The two-step adjustment of the fifth sub-mounting plate 16 and the dust suction connecting plate is beneficial to improving space utilization and ensuring the adjustable range.

[0093] Specifically, a second arc hole is provided on the second angle adjustment plate 1052, and a fixing hole is provided on the dust suction connection plate. The second arc hole and the fixing hole are connected by bolts, and the length direction of the bolts after connection extends along the X-axis direction. When the angle needs to be adjusted, the bolt is loosened, and the second adjustment plate is rotated so that the relative position of the second arc hole and the fixing hole changes, and then the bolt is tightened to fix the second adjustment plate and the dust suction connection plate. The structural cost of the follow-up dust suction adjustment mechanism 105 is low, and the angle adjustment of the dust hood 8 is more convenient.

[0094] Preferably, the dust hood 8 is connected to the external negative pressure equipment through a steel wire hose, and the steel wire hose can be bent freely. As the welding position changes, the robot 10 drives the laser welding head 2, the welding gun 4 and other components to move synchronously, and the dust hood 8 moves synchronously. The steel wire hose can enable the dust hood 8 to move smoothly, realize synchronous dust extraction, and at the same time ensure the reliability of the connection between the dust hood 8 and the external negative pressure equipment.

[0095] Furthermore, if Figure 1 , Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, the composite welding device also includes an optical fiber protection module 9, which includes a fixed cylinder 91 and a bellows 92. The bellows 92 is sleeved outside the optical fiber. One end of the fixed cylinder 91 is detachably sleeved on the optical fiber interface of the laser welding head 2, and the other end is detachably sleeved and fixed with one end of the bellows 92. The side wall of the fixed sleeve is provided with a avoidance opening 9110 for passing the air pipe and water pipe of the laser welding head 2 and the optical fiber head. The bellows 92 sleeved outside the optical fiber plays a good protective role on the optical fiber, avoiding the force concentrated on the end of the optical fiber to cause damage to the optical fiber when the welding posture of the robot 10 is switched over a large range and a large angle, and the axial position of the bellows 92 is fixed by the fixed cylinder 91, which can effectively prevent the bellows 92 from moving up and down along its axial direction to expose the end of the optical fiber.

[0096] Specifically, the fixed sleeve 91 includes a first fixed sleeve 911, a second fixed sleeve 912 and an arc card 913. One end of the first fixed sleeve 911 can be detachably sleeved on the optical fiber interface of the laser welding head 2, and one end of the corrugated tube 92 is abutted against the other end of the fixed sleeve. The side of the first fixed sleeve 911 is open, that is, the peripheral wall of the first fixed sleeve 911 is not closed, so that the first fixed sleeve 911 can be sleeved from the side at the optical fiber interface of the laser welding head 2 to which the optical fiber has been connected; a part of the second fixed sleeve 912 is sleeved and fixed outside the first fixed sleeve 911, and the other part is sleeved outside the corrugated tube 92. The second fixed sleeve 912 is preferably two half-cylinders 9121, and the two half-cylinders 9121 can be connected to form a first fixed sleeve 911 with a cylindrical structure; the inner edge of the arc card 913 is inserted into a groove outside the corrugated tube 92, and is detachably connected to the end of the second fixed sleeve 912 away from the first fixed sleeve 911. During installation, the open first fixed sleeve 911 is placed on the optical fiber interface of the laser welding head 2 and fixed, for example, the first fixed sleeve 911 is fixed on the optical fiber interface of the laser welding head 2 by using a top screw, that is, the top screw is threadedly connected to the side wall of the first fixed sleeve 911 and abuts against the outer wall of the optical fiber interface of the laser welding head 2; then the two half-cylinders 9121 are spliced ​​so that a part of the two half-cylinders 9121 is located outside the first fixed sleeve 911 and a part is located outside the corrugated tube 92, for example, the butt surfaces of the two half-cylinders 9121 are fixed by locking screws. Preferably, the two half-cylinders 9121 are fixed to the first fixed sleeve 911 respectively by using a top screw, so that the stability of the second fixed sleeve 912 is better, that is, the top screw is threadedly connected to the half-cylinder 9121 and abuts against the outer wall of the first fixed sleeve 911. Finally, the arc card 913 is placed on the upper end of the second fixed sleeve 912, that is, the end away from the first fixed sleeve 911, and the inner edge of the arc card 913 is inserted into a groove of the corrugated tube 92, and then the arc card 913 is fixed to the upper end of the second fixed sleeve 912 to fix the position of the corrugated tube 92, which can effectively prevent the corrugated tube 92 from moving up and down along its axial direction. Preferably, two or more arc cards 913 are provided, and two or more arc cards 913 are arranged on the upper end surface of the second fixed sleeve 912, and two or more arc cards 913 form a ring, which realizes the axial and radial limit fixation of the corrugated tube 92. The above structure is easy to disassemble and assemble, has a simple structure, and is low in cost. When the welding posture of the robot 10 is switched over a large range and a large angle, the fixed position of the corrugated tube 92 is the concentrated force position, so that the optical fiber always remains in the inner movement of the corrugated tube 92, avoiding the problem of damage caused by excessive force or excessive bending angle, and greatly improving the service life of the optical fiber head.The optical fiber protection module 9 can solve the problem that the optical fiber head is easily damaged when the robot 10 needs to switch the welding posture over a large range and at a large angle. It can keep the end of the optical fiber head always in a vertically upward state, change the concentrated force position of the end of the optical fiber head to the corrugated tube 92, and greatly improve the service life of the optical fiber head. It is also small in size, light in weight, beautiful in appearance, and easy to disassemble.

[0097] Preferably, the second fixing sleeve 912 can also strengthen the limiting of the bellows 92 through a top screw, that is, the top screw is threadedly connected to the second fixing sleeve 912 and abuts against the outer wall of the bellows 92.

At the same time, in terms of layout, there are protective gas blowing parts, welding guns, weld trackers, laser rangefinders, dust hoods and air knives on the sides of the laser welding head 2, and there is an optical fiber protection module on it. Its overall layout is reasonable and interference-free, and high space utilization is achieved within a small volume.

The integrated laser rangefinder 3, welding gun adjustment mechanism 102, and weld tracking adjustment mechanism 101 are used to respectively solve the main problems affecting the debugging time, such as cumbersome focal length measurement process, inconvenient welding gun position adjustment, and inconvenient welding seam tracker debugging, which can greatly save the laser welding process test debugging time and improve the convenience and efficiency of process test operation. The integrated air knife adjustment mechanism 104 is used to solve the problem of too high damage frequency of welding head protective lens caused by insufficient protection effect of single coaxial air knife, thereby extending the service life of laser welding head 2 protective lens, and greatly saving the economic cost of high-power laser process test. The blowing piece adjustment mechanism 103 and the protective gas blowing piece 5 are used to enhance the convergence effect of protective gas and improve the gas protection effect during laser welding.
