Description

Technical Field

[0002] In the traditional brazing process, after the flux is applied between the welding workpieces and the welding workpieces are positioned, they are transported to the high-temperature welding chamber.

[0064] exist Figure 4 In the embodiment, the fourth transport unit may be an extension of the second transport unit, and the fourth transport unit is configured to transport the assembled tube sheet assembly D to the assembly coating unit 6, Fig.12The schematic diagram of the structure of the component coating unit of one embodiment of the present invention is that the component coating unit 6 is configured to coat the two ends of the assembled tube sheet component with flux, including two groups of second flux storage units 61 and second coating rollers 62 and two driving units 63. Each second coating roller 62 is configured to pick up flux from the second flux storage unit 61 and distribute it on the roller surface. The two groups of second flux storage units 61 and second coating rollers 62 are relatively arranged on both sides of the fourth conveying unit. Each driving unit 63 is connected to the second coating roller 62 and drives it to reciprocate in the transmission direction perpendicular to the fourth conveying unit. Similarly, the second flux storage unit 61 can be composed of two stainless steel cylinders, gears and motors, etc. The motor 64 drives the stainless steel cylinders to rotate in opposite directions. The flux is transported through the pipeline and drips in the middle of the two stainless steel cylinders. As the cylinders rotate, the flux is evenly adhered to the surface of the stainless steel cylinder, that is, the liquid storage of the second flux storage unit 61 is completed. The second coating roller 62 picks up flux from the second flux storage unit 61 and distributes it on the roller surface, and the two driving units 63 respectively drive the two oppositely arranged second coating rollers 62 to move to the two ends of the tube sheet assembly D on the fourth transport unit, so that the flux on the surface of the second coating roller 62 is coated on the surfaces of the two ends of the tube sheet assembly.
