Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of laser cladding of coal mine hydraulic supports, and in particular to laser cladding equipment and a process method for coal mine hydraulic supports. Background Art

[0002] The main reason for surface treatment of hydraulic supports in coal mines is to extend their service life, improve their wear and corrosion resistance, and ensure safety. Hydraulic supports in coal mines are susceptible to corrosion and wear in the complex mine environment, leading to failure and threatening mining safety. Therefore, surface engineering technology is necessary to protect the surface of hydraulic supports.

[0003] The main surface treatment technologies for coal mine hydraulic supports include: electroplating hard chrome, laser cladding, high velocity flame spraying and sprayed metal ceramic coatings, and tungsten flash treatment. Each of these technologies has its advantages and disadvantages, and selecting the appropriate surface treatment technology requires comprehensive consideration based on specific operating conditions and economic benefits. For example, although laser cladding technology is relatively expensive, its high efficiency and long life make it the preferred option in many cases.

[0004] The areas requiring laser cladding in coal mine hydraulic supports primarily include the columns, piston rods, and inner cylinder walls. These areas are subject to significant pressure and corrosion within the hydraulic support, making them susceptible to wear and corrosion, and therefore require laser cladding for reinforcement and repair. The hydraulic support's top frame and guard plates also require laser cladding. Laser cladding improves the plates' wear and corrosion resistance, extending their service life and ensuring the proper operation and safe production of the hydraulic support.

[0005] Laser cladding equipment is widely used in aerospace, automotive, petrochemical, and mold manufacturing. In aerospace, laser cladding equipment is used to process high-temperature, high-pressure components such as turbine blades and jet engines, improving their heat and corrosion resistance. In automotive manufacturing, laser cladding equipment is used to process components such as engine cylinders and drive shafts, improving their wear and corrosion resistance. In mold manufacturing, laser cladding equipment is used to repair damaged mold surfaces and extend their service life.

[0006] Laser cladding technology uses a high-energy laser beam as a heat source to fuse a high-hardness, corrosion-resistant alloy powder with a substrate, creating a metallurgical reaction that creates a wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant functional layer. This technology offers advantages such as metallurgical bonding with the substrate, high surface treatment efficiency, outstanding economic benefits, and a clean, environmentally friendly design.

[0007] Laser cladding equipment is widely used today, but there are still many unresolved technical problems. In particular, regarding the laser cladding equipment used for various components of coal mine hydraulic supports, there are the following main technical problems:

[0008] Existing laser cladding equipment has technical problems such as peeling, cracks, and pores during processing, which will affect the quality and durability of the coating.

[0009] Existing laser cladding equipment is highly targeted at the shape of the workpiece being processed. The same equipment cannot complete laser cladding operations under different working conditions, including flat workpieces, the outer surface of cylindrical workpieces, and the inner surface of tubular workpieces. It is not suitable for laser cladding work on the center column, piston rod, inner wall of the middle cylinder, support, and top frame of coal mine hydraulic support equipment.

[0010] Existing laser cladding equipment is basically electronically controlled for its rotation and feeding, and has complex control systems and related auxiliary equipment. The procurement and maintenance costs of these equipment are relatively high, resulting in very high costs for existing laser cladding equipment. Summary of the Invention

During use, the laser cladding head 6 can be moved in three directions through the base frame 41, the processing vertical frame 42, the processing horizontal frame 43 and their corresponding screws. Among them, the processing vertical frame 42 is mainly used to adjust the height of the laser cladding head 6. After the height is determined, it is no longer used. The base frame 41 and the processing horizontal frame 43 and their corresponding screws can be used to change the processing path of the laser cladding head 6.

[0061] The speed-changing linkage mechanism 8 includes a driving shaft 81 driven by the driving unit 7, a speed-changing mechanism 82, and an intermittent driving mechanism 84;

[0062] The speed changing mechanism 82 includes a first gear 821 and a speed changing wheel 83 which are slidingly arranged on the driving shaft 81. The driving shaft 81 can drive the first gear 821 to rotate. The second gear 822 is rotatably connected to the frame 1. The first gear 821 can mesh with the second gear 822. The second gear 822 is coaxially fixedly connected to the pulley 824 through the linkage shaft 823. The laser cladding head 6 can be indirectly driven to move by the driving device. Especially when processing the outer surface of a cylindrical object and the inner surface of a tubular object, after adjusting the size of the speed changing wheel 83 and starting the drive motor 71, the entire device can be driven to work by the same drive motor 71.

The purely mechanical structure is stable and reliable, with a low failure rate, and is suitable for high-frequency operation.

[0065] It should be noted that a laser 61 and a beam splitting device 62 are provided in the laser cladding head 6. The beam splitting device 62 includes a beam splitting box 621 provided inside the laser cladding head 6. A beam splitting mirror group 622 is provided in the beam splitting box 621. The beam splitting mirror group 622 is composed of several wedge-shaped beam splitting lenses 6221. Beam splitting tubes 631 are provided on both sides of the laser cladding head 6. A processing port is provided below the laser cladding head 6. A beam splitter 63 is provided in each of the two beam splitting tubes 631. The beam splitter group 622 can split the laser light emitted by the laser 61 into three parts, which are respectively directed to the two beam splitters 63 and the processing port.

[0066] With such an arrangement, during processing, the laser emitted by the laser 61 can be divided into three laser beams with appropriate energy through the beam splitter group 622. One of the laser beams is vertically downward and is focused by the lens for laser cladding processing. The remaining two laser beams are emitted obliquely, irradiated by the beam splitter 63, and then irradiated on the workpiece through the reflective port, forming an elliptical light spot with energy.

[0067] The elliptical light spot located in front of the processing port can preheat the prefabricated material that has not been laser clad. Since the appropriate light spot size and energy can be adjusted through the structure of the beam splitter 63 itself, the prefabricated material can be effectively preheated, thereby greatly optimizing the laser cladding effect and effectively avoiding the generation of cracks and pores.

[0068] The elliptical spot located behind the processing port can perform secondary heating on the surface of the workpiece that has been laser clad. At this time, the bottom of the prefabricated material after laser cladding processing has been fused with the workpiece, and the upper part is prone to peeling, cracking and other phenomena due to rapid cooling due to exposure to the air. At this time, secondary heating can slow down the cooling rate of the outer cladding material without affecting the fusion of the bottom cladding material and the workpiece. In this way, it is possible to effectively avoid technical problems such as peeling, cracking, and bubbles after the laser cladding operation while ensuring the excellent cladding effect of laser cladding, thereby ensuring the quality and durability of the coating.

[0069] Optionally, the spraying part 3 includes a spray box 31 and a nozzle 32 , a spray pipeline 33 is connected between the spray box 31 and the nozzle 32 , a connecting buckle 34 is provided at the nozzle 32 , and the connecting buckle 34 is detachably connected to an extension rod 35 .

[0070] The present invention discloses a process method for laser cladding processing of a coal mine hydraulic support, which comprises the following steps: S1: confirming a workpiece X to be laser cladding processed and spraying a prefabricated material;

[0071] S2: Control the movement of the clamping part 2 to fix the workpiece X to be processed by laser cladding;

[0072] S3; adjust the processing carriage 4 so that the laser cladding head 6 is in a suitable initial processing position;

[0073] S4; select and debug the drive unit 7 and the speed linkage mechanism 8 to a suitable state according to the surface of the workpiece X to be laser clad;

[0074] S5; start the drive unit 7 does not start the laser cladding head 6, determine the laser cladding head 6 for laser cladding processing route and correct;

[0075] S5; start the drive unit 7 and the laser cladding head 6, and perform laser cladding processing on the surface of the workpiece X to be laser cladding;

[0076] S6; After the workpiece X cools down, the clamping part 2 is manipulated to remove the workpiece X and place it properly.

[0077] This operation maximizes the use of this equipment for high-quality, high-stability, high-frequency, and high-safety laser cladding operations on various parts of coal mine hydraulic supports, ensuring cladding results. The same device can be used to laser clad the center column, piston rod, inner wall of the middle cylinder, support, and top frame of coal mine hydraulic support equipment. Furthermore, it replaces existing laser cladding equipment, whose rotation and feed are essentially all electronically controlled, eliminating the need for complex control systems and related auxiliary equipment, significantly reducing the cost of laser cladding equipment.

[0078] Application scenario of an exemplary embodiment:

[0079] The laser cladding equipment for coal mine hydraulic supports involved in the present invention is divided into two operating situations during actual operation;

[0080] 1. When performing laser cladding processing on the surface of a rotating object, such as the outer surface of a cylindrical object (i.e. the piston rod in a coal mine hydraulic support) or the inner surface of a round tube object (i.e. the inner wall of the cylinder in a coal mine hydraulic support):

[0081] According to the actual construction method, first confirm the workpiece X that needs laser cladding processing and spray the prefabricated material, and then perform the clamping operation. When it is necessary to clamp a cylindrical or barrel-shaped object, place it on the three-jaw chuck 22 and use the conventional usage of the three-jaw chuck 22 to clamp it stably. When it is necessary to clamp an object with a plane, place it on the three-jaw chuck 22, tighten the two movable jaws 221 and the fixed jaw 222, and the abutment block on the fixed jaw 222 does not rotate, and the two abutment blocks on the movable jaw 221 are rotated to the horizontal, so that the three cooperate to clamp and fix the object.

[0082] Then, according to the surface of the workpiece X to be laser clad, the drive unit 7 and the speed-changing linkage mechanism 8 are selected and debugged to the appropriate state. It should be noted that first, according to the speed of the drive motor 71, the speed-changing linkage mechanism 8, the speed-changing wheel 83, the grooved wheel structure, the reciprocating screw and its servo motor are adjusted. The movement path and speed of the laser cladding head 6 need to be determined according to the specific workpiece processing surface and processing path before adjustment.

[0083] After the overall structure is adjusted, the driving unit 7 is started but the laser cladding head 6 is not started. The laser cladding processing route of the laser cladding head 6 is determined and corrected, so as to ensure that the laser cladding head 6, which is of high value and relatively fragile, is not damaged.

[0084] After the circuit adjustment operation is completed, the driving unit 7 and the laser cladding head 6 are started to perform laser cladding processing on the surface of the workpiece X that needs laser cladding processing. At this time, the specially designed laser cladding head 6 in the present invention can use the beam splitter group 622 to split the laser emitted by the laser 61 into three laser beams with appropriate energy. One of the laser beams is vertically downward and is focused by the lens for laser cladding processing. The remaining two laser beams are emitted obliquely, irradiated by the beam splitter 63, and then irradiated on the workpiece through the reflective port, forming an elliptical light spot with energy.

[0085] The elliptical light spot located in front of the processing port can preheat the prefabricated material that has not been laser clad. Since the appropriate light spot size and energy can be adjusted through the structure of the beam splitter 63 itself, the prefabricated material can be effectively preheated, thereby greatly optimizing the laser cladding effect and effectively avoiding the generation of cracks and pores.

[0086] The elliptical spot located behind the processing port can perform secondary heating on the surface of the workpiece that has been laser clad. At this time, the bottom of the prefabricated material after laser cladding processing has been fused with the workpiece, and the upper part is prone to peeling, cracking and other phenomena due to rapid cooling due to exposure to the air. At this time, secondary heating can slow down the cooling rate of the outer cladding material without affecting the fusion of the bottom cladding material and the workpiece. In this way, it is possible to effectively avoid technical problems such as peeling, cracking, and bubbles after the laser cladding operation while ensuring the excellent cladding effect of laser cladding, thereby ensuring the quality and durability of the coating.

[0087] Finally, when a workpiece is processed, wait for the workpiece X to cool down, operate the clamping part 2 to remove the workpiece X and place it properly. After completion, all structures are reset and no adjustment is required to achieve further processing.
