Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of centrifugal pump production, in particular to a welding device for centrifugal pump production. Background Art

[0002] A centrifugal pump is a common fluid conveying equipment. It converts mechanical energy into pressure energy and kinetic energy of the fluid through a rotating impeller, thereby achieving liquid transportation. Among them, the centrifugal pump impeller is an important component in the centrifugal pump and plays a key role. As one of the core components of the centrifugal pump, the impeller needs to weld the blades and impeller discs together during the processing.

[0003] At present, in the welding process of the impeller, due to the uneven shrinkage of the weld, the impeller is easily deformed as a whole or partially, affecting the dynamic balance and assembly accuracy of the impeller. For example, when the blades of the impeller are welded to the impeller disk, the deformation of the weld angle will cause the blades to be deflected or even eccentric. In view of this, the impeller is currently rigidly fixed during the welding process to limit its deformation, but rigid fixation will lead to an increase in residual stress. The residual stress generated during the welding process will reduce the fatigue strength and service life of the impeller, and may also cause cracks in the weld, as well as cracks and deformation of the impeller during operation. Secondly, before the current impeller impeller disk is welded, the pre-welding preparation work mainly relies on manual operation. Specifically, the staff needs to insert the blades to be welded into the blade positioning grooves one by one, and ensure that the blades are in the correct position and are pressed and fixed to ensure the accuracy of the subsequent welding process. This operation method has many inconveniences. First, the process of inserting blades one by one manually is extremely cumbersome, which not only consumes a lot of time and manpower costs, but also makes workers prone to operating errors due to fatigue in the case of long-term repeated operations, which in turn affects product quality and production efficiency. Secondly, the consistency of manual operation is difficult to ensure, and the operating techniques and strength of different workers may vary, which will also have a certain impact on the installation accuracy of the blades, and may eventually lead to unstable overall performance of the impeller blade. For this reason, we propose a welding device for centrifugal pump production. Summary of the invention

[0044] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a welding device for centrifugal pump production, comprising a welding table 1, a plasma arc welding gun 2 is installed on the welding table 1 through a mechanical arm, and a welding seat 4 is fixed near the middle of the upper end surface of the welding table 1, and a plurality of blade insertion slots 9 are arranged in an annular array on the welding seat 4, and the number and layout of the blade insertion slots 9 are the same as the number and layout of the blades on the blade disk to be welded, and a movable welding auxiliary plate 5 is arranged above the welding seat 4, and the welding auxiliary plate 5 is provided with auxiliary slots corresponding to the blade insertion slots 9. During welding, the plasma The welding end of the arc welding gun 2 moves along the auxiliary groove by the mechanical arm to improve the accuracy of the welding position. It also includes a knocking component 3 and a plurality of heat-conducting airbags 10. Carbon dioxide gas that expands when heated is provided inside the heat-conducting airbag 10, which can also be replaced with other inert gases that are easy to expand when heated and easy to shrink when cooled. The side wall of the blade insertion groove 9 is provided with an airbag groove 41, and each airbag groove 41 corresponds to a heat-conducting airbag 10. The heat-conducting airbag 10 is a device that uses the heat conductivity of gas to achieve heat transfer. The heat-conducting airbag 10 can be made of polyimide ( PI) or other materials with good sealing performance, high temperature resistance and wear resistance, so that the heat-conducting airbag 10 not only has good sealing performance, but also can maintain stable physical properties in a high temperature environment to prevent gas leakage, and a heating plate 11 is provided at the bottom end and the inner wall of the airbag groove 41, and a resistance wire is contained inside the heating plate 11. When current passes through the resistance wire, according to Joule's law, the resistance wire will generate heat, wherein the heating plate 11 at the bottom end of the airbag groove 41 is a circular structure, and the heating plate 11 on the side wall of the airbag groove 41 is an arc structure, and the arc structure is heated The plate 11 can increase the contact area between the side and the thermally conductive airbag 10, so that when the heating plate 11 is heated, the carbon dioxide gas inside the thermally conductive airbag 10 can be quickly heated and expanded, and then the hot thermally conductive airbag 10 can be used to press the blades to preheat and clamp the blades. The knocking component 3 is installed at the end of the robot arm and is located on the rear side of the welding direction of the plasma arc welding gun 2. The knocking component 3 is used to hammer the weld when the plasma arc welding gun 2 moves the welding blades and blade disks according to the auxiliary groove, so as to cause plastic deformation of the weld metal and release residual stress.

[0046] Among them, combined Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the knocking assembly 3 includes a vertical bar 31 fixed on the robotic arm, a first motor 32 is installed at the upper end of the vertical bar 31 facing the robotic arm, a first hinged bar 33 on the other side of the vertical bar 31 is installed at the output end of the first motor 32, a second hinged bar 34 is hinged at the end of the first hinged bar 33, a guide block 35 is fixed at the bottom end of the vertical bar 31 on one side of the first hinged bar 33, a vertical knocking rod 36 is passed through the guide block 35, a connecting rod 37 is connected to the top end of the knocking rod 36, a universal ball 38 is connected between the connecting rod 37 and the second hinged bar 34, and a round head is fixed to the bottom end of the knocking rod 36.

[0047] Through the above, during specific use, after the blades of the centrifugal pump impeller are inserted into the blade insertion groove 9, the staff can promptly use the controller (not shown) to start the heating plate 11 for heating. After the carbon dioxide is heated, its volume expands, so that the heat-conducting airbag 10 can fit the blades to be welded. The hot carbon dioxide transfers the heat to the blades through the heat-conducting airbag 10, which can preheat the blades, improve the weldability of the blades, and reduce the generation of cracks; and the heat-conducting airbag 10 has a certain elasticity. If the impeller is slightly disturbed by external force or thermal deformation during the welding process, the heat-conducting airbag 10 can play a role of buffering protection.

[0048] Secondly, when the robot arm drives the plasma arc welding gun 2 to move along the auxiliary groove for welding, the first motor 32 can be started, and the output end of the first motor 32 can be used to drive the first hinge bar 33 to rotate, and then the second hinge bar 34 can be driven to move, so that the knocking rod 36 can be extended and retracted along the guide block 35. When extending downward, the bottom end of the knocking rod 36 with a round head fixed enters the auxiliary groove, and the weld after welding can be hammered to form pits on the weld to eliminate part of the stress and change the tensile stress into compressive stress; secondly, the vibration stress generated by the knocking also relaxes and equalizes the welding residual stress, further improving the dimensional stability and fatigue strength of the impeller.

[0049] Among them, pits are arranged on the surface of the weld after hammering. This process actually converts the tensile stress on the weld surface into compressive stress. When the impeller is working, the compressive stress on the surface can partially offset the tensile stress applied externally, thereby improving the fatigue resistance of the weld.

[0050] In addition, it should be noted that since the knocking rod 36 is at a certain distance from the welding end of the plasma arc welding gun 2, when the welding end of the plasma arc welding gun 2 is just in one end of the auxiliary groove for welding, the knocking rod 36 cannot enter the auxiliary groove at this time. This requires the use of a controller to control the delayed start of the knocking component 3, which can be specifically set according to the welding movement speed of the plasma arc welding gun 2. It can be started one second or two seconds or other time after the plasma arc welding gun 2 starts welding to ensure that the knocking rod 36 can be extended and retracted to enter the auxiliary groove; secondly, in the process of the welding end of the plasma arc welding gun 2 moving from one auxiliary groove to another, no welding is performed in this process, so that the knocking component 3 is stopped one second or two seconds or other time after the plasma arc welding gun 2 stops welding (also controlled by the controller) to avoid the knocking component 3 hammering the upper end surface of the welding auxiliary plate 5.

[0051] The following description can be made for the controller controlling the delayed start or stop of the knocking component 3: Specific control method (taking PLC as an example):

[0052] Hardware connection: Connect the start / stop signal of the welding gun to the input port of the PLC, and connect the start / stop signal of the knocking component 3 to the output port of the PLC, so that the PLC can monitor the status of the welding gun and control the action of the knocking component 3.

[0053] Programming: When the welding gun is started, the input port of the PLC receives the start signal, and a timer is set in the program to start timing. The timer is set to the required delay time, such as 2 seconds (determined according to the actual welding process requirements);

[0054] When the timer ends, the output port of the PLC outputs a signal to start the knocking component 3;

[0055] When the welding gun stops, another timer is set in the PLC program (or the same timer is used and the program logic is adjusted according to the specific situation). This timer starts timing when the welding gun stop signal arrives, and stops the work of the knocking component 3 after a delay of a period of time, such as 2 seconds.

[0056] Debugging and optimization: In the actual welding process, it is necessary to debug the set delay time and observe the effect after welding, such as the quality of the welding joint, etc. According to the observation results, the delay time should be appropriately adjusted to achieve the best welding quality and work efficiency.

[0057] Also, see Figure 1-Figure 2 as well as Figure 9-10 As shown, the welding device for centrifugal pump production also includes an auxiliary loading component 7 and a moving component 8. The auxiliary loading component 7 includes a fixed placement column 71 and a movable placement column 72 arranged up and down. The fixed placement column 71 and the movable placement column 72 are both provided with a plurality of blade storage slots 12 in a circular array. The number and layout of the blade storage slots 12 on the same layer are the same as the number and layout of the blade insertion slots 9. A blade adjustment member 13 is provided in the fixed placement column 71. The blades in the fixed placement column 71 are gradually released through the blade adjustment member 13, so that a plurality of blades can be simultaneously fed into the movable placement column 72. A blade movable support 14 is provided in the movable placement column 72. The moving component 8 is used to realize the movement of the movable placement column 72, so that the movable placement column 72 moves to the top of the welding seat 4, and releases a plurality of blades into the blade insertion slots 9 at the same time through the blade movable support 14.

When the fourth motor 131 is started, the output end of the fourth motor 131 can be used to drive the first connecting shaft 132 to rotate, thereby realizing the synchronous deflection of the three layers of blocking members 133.

[0059] The side wall of the blade storage slot 12 in the fixed placement column 71 is vertically and equidistantly provided with three first grooves 711, each first groove 711 corresponds to a layer of blocking member 133, and the three first grooves 711 divide the blade storage slot 12 in the fixed placement column 71 into a loading area 712, an intermediate temporary storage area 713 and a bottom transfer area 714 from top to bottom. The uppermost and lowermost blocking members 133 are on the same vertical plane, and the uppermost and middle layers of blocking members 133 are staggered. Specifically, when the uppermost and lowermost first arc-shaped support strips 1332 are in the blade storage slot 12 in the fixed placement column 71, the middle layer of the first arc-shaped support strip 1332 enters the first groove 711, and when the middle layer of the first arc-shaped support strip 1332 enters the blade storage slot 12, the uppermost and lowermost first arc-shaped support strips 1332 are synchronously deflected and enter the first groove 711.

[0060] The blade movable support 14 includes a fifth motor 141 installed at the middle of the top inside the movable placement column 72. The fifth motor 141 is a deflection motor. The output end of the fifth motor 141 is connected to the second connecting shaft 142. The bottom end of the outer wall of the second connecting shaft 142 is installed with a plurality of second arc-shaped support strips 143 in a circular array. A second groove 721 is provided at the bottom end of the side wall of the blade storage groove 12 in the movable placement column 72. The second arc-shaped support strip 143 can enter or exit the second groove 721. By starting the fifth motor 141, the output end of the fifth motor 141 can be used to drive the second connecting shaft 142 to rotate, thereby realizing the deflection of the second arc-shaped support strip 143, so that the second arc-shaped support strip 143 enters the bottom end of the blade storage groove 12 in the movable placement column 72 to block it, or deflects into the second groove 721 to release the blocking of the second arc-shaped support strip 143.

[0061] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the moving assembly 8 includes a third motor 81 installed on one side of the upper end surface of the welding table 1, and a screw 82 is installed at the output end of the third motor 81. The outside of the screw 82 is connected to the mounting sleeve outside the movable placement column 72 through a screw nut seat.

[0062] Second, see Figure 8 As shown, it also includes a driving assembly 6 connected to the welding auxiliary disk 5, the driving assembly 6 includes a mounting hoop 61 and a mounting seat 62, the mounting hoop 61 is fixed to the outside of the welding auxiliary disk 5, the mounting seat 62 is arranged in the welding table 1, and a vertical second motor 63 is installed on the mounting seat 62, the second motor 63 is a deflection motor, the top of the second motor 63 and the mounting hoop 61 are connected by an axle rod, and a telescopic rod 64 is installed between the mounting seat 62 and the top of the inside of the welding table 1, the telescopic rod 64 is an electric telescopic rod or a pneumatic telescopic rod, the output end of the second motor 63 can drive the mounting hoop 61 to deflect, so that the welding auxiliary disk 5 is away from the top of the welding seat 4 or is above the welding seat 4, the telescopic rod 64 can be used to realize the lifting and lowering of the welding auxiliary disk 5, and then the blade disk and the blade inserted into the blade insertion groove 9 can be pressed down synchronously, this downward pressing action can make the blade and the blade disk fit more closely, and the synchronous force pressing can also help the blade and the blade disk to be accurately positioned before welding, and can ensure that multiple blades can be inserted in place.

[0063] In summary, in specific use, the blade adjusting member 13 is first used to block the bottom ends of the loading area 712 and the bottom transfer area 714. Then, the staff can put the impeller blades to be welded from the top of the fixed placement column 71 into the loading area 712, and then use the blade adjusting member 13 to block the bottom end of the intermediate temporary storage area 713. At the same time, the bottom end of the loading area 712 is opened, and the blades in the loading area 712 can be moved down to the intermediate temporary storage area 713. Then, the blade adjusting member 13 is used to block the bottom ends of the loading area 712 and the bottom transfer area 714. At this time, the intermediate temporary storage area 713 is opened, and the blades inside the intermediate temporary storage area 713 enter the bottom transfer area 714. At this time, the staff can continue to put the blades to be welded in the loading area 712. Afterwards, the blade adjusting member 13 is also used to open the bottom transfer area 714. 4 moves down into the blade storage slot 12 in the movable placement column 72, and then the movable placement column 72 is transferred to the top of the welding seat 4 by the moving component 8, and then the blade movable support 14 is used to release the support of the blade, so that the blade enters the blade insertion slot 9 together and the movable placement column 72 returns to its original position, and then the upper blade disk is placed, and then the welding auxiliary disk 5 is moved to the top of the welding seat 4 and moved down by the driving component 6, so that the blade to be welded and the blade disk are synchronously pressed and positioned, and there is no need to manually insert the blades into the blade insertion slot 9 and press them one by one, which greatly improves the accuracy and stability of the operation. Whether in large-scale industrial production or in the high-end manufacturing field with extremely high product precision requirements, it can significantly improve production efficiency and reduce production costs, while ensuring that the quality and performance of the products meet higher standards.

[0064] Through the cooperation of the blade adjustment part 13, the fixed placement column 71 can always have two layers of blades to be welded. Through the cooperation of the auxiliary loading component 7, etc., continuous loading and welding can be achieved. There is no need to wait for the staff to finish loading after a group of welding is completed before welding, which greatly improves the welding efficiency.

[0065] In addition, after the blades and the impeller are placed, the robot arm and the plasma arc welding gun 2 are started to perform welding.
