DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] 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 technical personnel in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] See also Figures 1 to 7 The present invention provides a technical solution: a controller for an intelligent welding machine based on a MOM system and digital twins, comprising a controller body 1 and a cooling and heat dissipation mechanism 2. A cooling and heat dissipation mechanism 2 is fixed to one side of the controller body 1, and the cooling and heat dissipation mechanism 2 comprises a heat conducting plate 201, and a heat conducting frame 202 is fixed to one side of the heat conducting plate 201. One side of the heat conducting frame 202 is connected to a block 204 through a first compression spring 203. The block 204 is snap-connected to one side of a mounting plate 212. Four mounting brackets 3 are fixed to the other side of the mounting plate 212, and a heat dissipation fan 4 is fixed to the inner side of the four mounting brackets 3.

[0028] In this embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, one side of the block 204 is connected to the slider 206 through a connecting rope 205, and a movable block 207 is fixed to the outer side of the slider 206. When the two movable blocks 207 are pushed by hand, the block 204 will move to the right under the pulling action of the two connecting ropes 205, which is convenient for unlocking the heat-conducting frame 202. After that, the controller body 1, the heat-conducting plate 201 and the heat-conducting frame 202 can be moved as a whole, so as to flexibly adjust the position of the controller body 1.

[0029] In this embodiment, Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, slide grooves 209 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the controller body 1, and a second compression spring 208 is fixed in the slide groove 209, and the slider 206 is fixed at one end of the second compression spring 208. When the movable block 207 is pushed by hand, the movable block 207 and the slider 206 slide to the right. After the movable block 207 is released, the slider 206 and the movable block 207 will automatically pop open under the action of the second compression spring 208.

[0030] In this embodiment, Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, limiting plates 210 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the slide groove 209 , and the slider 206 is slidably connected between the two limiting plates 210 . The two limiting plates 210 limit the slider 206 .

[0031] In this embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, fixed blocks 211 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the controller body 1, and the fixed blocks 211 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the movable blocks 207. When the movable blocks 207 and the fixed blocks 211 are pinched by hand, the fixed blocks 211 do not move, the movable blocks 207 move to the right, and the locking blocks 204 move to the right under the pulling action of the two connecting ropes 205, so as to facilitate unlocking the heat conducting frame 202.

[0032] In this embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a card slot 213 is provided on one side of the mounting disk 212, and the card block 204 is engaged and connected in the card slot 213. At the beginning, the card block 204 is engaged and connected in the card slot 213, and the heat-conducting frame 202 and the mounting disk 212 are locked together. When the two movable blocks 207 are pushed by hand, the card block 204 moves to the right to unlock the heat-conducting frame 202. After the positions of the controller body 1, the heat-conducting disk 201 and the heat-conducting frame 202 are adjusted as a whole, the movable block 207 can be released, and the movable block 207 automatically pops open. The card block 204 automatically pops open and is engaged in the corresponding card slot 213 under the action of the first compression spring 203, so that the heat-conducting frame 202 and the mounting disk 212 can be locked together again.

[0033] In this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, connecting brackets 214 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the mounting plate 212, and an annular pipe 215 is fixed between the ends of the two connecting brackets 214. The annular pipe 215 is located between the heat conducting plate 201 and the heat conducting frame 202. The connecting bracket 214 serves to connect the mounting plate 212 and the annular pipe 215.

[0034] In this embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a cooling channel 216 is opened in the mounting plate 212, and a liquid pump 217 is fixed to the inner bottom of the cooling channel 216, and a liquid pumping pipe 218 is fixed to the bottom of the liquid pump 217, and the liquid pumping pipe 218 passes through the bottom of the mounting plate 212 and is connected to the bottom of the annular pipe 215. Cooling liquid is stored in the cooling channel 216, and the liquid pump 217 can pump the cooling liquid in the cooling channel 216 into the annular pipe 215. The heat conducting plate 201 and the heat conducting frame 202 can conduct the heat on the controller body 1 to the cooling channel 216 and the annular pipe 215, and the coolant flows in the cooling channel 216 and the annular pipe 215, so as to achieve the cooling effect conveniently.

[0035] In this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a return pipe 219 is fixed on the top of the annular pipe 215, and the return pipe 219 passes through the top of the mounting plate 212 and is connected with the cooling channel 216. After the coolant enters the annular pipe 215, it can flow back to the cooling channel 216 through the return pipe 219. The coolant circulates in the cooling channel 216 and the annular pipe 215. At the same time, the cooling fan 4 blows air to the right, which is convenient for heat dissipation of the coolant in the cooling channel 216 and the effect of circulating cooling.

[0036] The use method and advantages of the present invention: The intelligent welding machine controller based on the MOM system and digital twin has the following working process: like Figures 1 to 7As shown: first, use the external bolts to install the mounting bracket 3 at the desired location. The cooling channel 216 stores coolant. Put both hands on the two fixed blocks 211 and push the movable block 207. The two movable blocks 207 move to the right. The clamping block 204 moves to the right under the pulling action of the two connecting ropes 205 and leaves the clamping slot 213, thereby unlocking the heat conducting frame 202. Then, the positions of the controller body 1, the heat conducting plate 201 and the heat conducting frame 202 can be adjusted as a whole. After completing the position adjustment operation, release the movable block 207, the movable block 207 automatically pops open, and the clamping block 204 automatically pops open and snaps into the corresponding clamping slot 213. The heat conducting frame 202 and the mounting plate 212 are locked together again, and the liquid pump 217 can pump the coolant in the cooling channel 216 into the annular pipe 215, and then the coolant flows back to the cooling channel 216 through the reflux pipe 219. The coolant circulates in the cooling channel 216 and the annular pipe 215, and the heat conducting plate 201 and the heat conducting frame 202 transfer the heat on the controller body 1 to the mounting plate 212 and the annular pipe 215, thereby achieving the effect of cooling and heat dissipation. At the same time, the cooling fan 4 blows air to the right to dissipate the coolant in the cooling channel 216, thereby achieving the effect of circulating cooling and heat dissipation.

[0037] In summary, the intelligent welding machine controller based on the MOM system and digital twin achieves the purpose of flexible position adjustment and cooling and heat dissipation, meeting people's usage needs.
