Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of steel pipe welding, and in particular to a welding device for steel pipe processing. Background Art

[0002] The welding device for steel pipe processing is a device used for connecting and splicing steel pipes. It is generally composed of a welding head group, a rail conveying system, a control system and a power supply system. The pipes to be welded are transported and connected by the rail conveying system, and then the rotating welding head group performs welding operations on the weld position of the pipe, thereby completing the welding operation of the steel pipe.

[0003] However, in the steel pipe welding device in the prior art, during the welding process of the steel pipe, the welding of the steel pipe is mostly completed by rotating the welding head group. However, in the actual welding process, the welding head group is driven to rotate by the power equipment, which is not only prone to high-frequency vibrations that drive the welding head to vibrate, resulting in errors in welding accuracy and welding strength, but the welding process is mostly divided into multi-stage welding, which is prone to welding gaps during the welding process. In addition, the positioning mechanism of some welding devices is difficult to ensure that the steel pipe is always in a stable state.

[0015] Further on the basis of the above scheme, two feed rollers are rotatably arranged on the welding frame, and the feed rollers correspond one-to-one to the pipe positioning drive mechanism. The feed rollers are located on one side of the welding positioning and conveying mechanism of the pipe positioning drive mechanism, and are used to support the pipes to be welded for loading and conveying.

[0016] The working principle and beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. The present invention, when two steel pipes to be welded are butt-jointed and conveyed, under the support of the feed roller, the welding ends of the steel pipes are respectively moved into the welding positioning and conveying mechanisms through the two pipe positioning drive mechanisms, and then the two power motors are started synchronously, the output end of the power motor drives the power worm to rotate, the rotation of the power worm drives the power worm wheel to rotate, the rotation of the power worm wheel drives the power rotating rod to rotate, the rotation of the power rotating rod drives the bevel gear 1 to rotate, the rotation of the bevel gear 1 drives the bevel gear 2 to rotate, the rotation of the bevel gear 2 drives the bidirectional positioning screw to rotate, so that the two ball nut groups on the bidirectional positioning screw move relative to each other, and the movement of the ball nut group drives the upper conveying plate and the lower conveying plate to move relative to each other, so that the multiple upper conveying rollers and the multiple lower conveying rollers move relative to each other, and the steel pipe to be welded is clamped by the movement of the upper conveying roller and the lower conveying roller, and then the conveying motor is started, and the lower conveying roller connected to the conveying motor is driven to rotate by the output end of the conveying motor, and the steel pipe to be welded can be conveyed and adjusted under the rotation of the lower conveying roller; 2. According to the present invention, before welding the steel pipe, the welding end of the steel pipe to be welded is moved to the bottom of the corresponding welding position detection head through the rotation of the power motor, and then the air supply pump is started to pump the external gas into the hollow positioning ring through the air supply pump. As the air pressure in the hollow positioning ring increases, the positioning tube moves toward one side of the steel pipe. At the same time, as the air pressure in the hollow positioning ring increases, the gas enters the arc positioning box, and the positioning rods in the arc positioning box move toward one side of the steel pipe at the same time until they meet the steel pipe to clamp and fix the steel pipe. After the positioning rods squeeze and fix the steel pipe, the power motor is started to separate the lower conveying roller and the upper conveying roller from the steel pipe, and then the driving motor is started. The output end of the driving motor will drive the driving rotating rod to rotate, and the rotation of the driving rotating rod drives the driving gear to rotate. The rotation of the driving gear drives the driving gear ring to rotate, and the rotation of the driving gear ring drives the hollow positioning ring to perform circular motion. The rotation of the hollow positioning ring can drive the steel pipe to perform 360° circular motion. When the hollow positioning ring drives the steel pipe to rotate, the longitudinal adjustment cylinder is started, and the output end of the longitudinal adjustment cylinder drives the longitudinal adjustment pressure sensor to move. The movement of the longitudinal adjustment pressure sensor drives the welding head frame to move. The movement of the welding head frame drives the welding position spring shock absorber, the welding position pressure sensor and the welding position detection head to move, so that one end of the welding position detection head and the welding position of the steel pipe are squeezed and touched each other. With the rotation of the steel pipe, the roundness of the steel pipe weld position can be detected through the change of the value of the welding position pressure sensor to ensure that there will be no excessive error after the weld positions of the two steel pipes are connected relative to each other. 3. The present invention, after detecting the roundness of the steel pipe weld position, starts the positioning motor to make the lower conveying roller and the upper conveying roller re-clamp and position the steel pipe, and then starts the suction pump to extract the gas in the hollow positioning ring to separate the positioning rod from the steel pipe, and starts the conveying motor to make the weld positions of the two steel pipes dock below the welding gun head group, and then starts the air supply pump to make the positioning rod clamp the steel pipe, and starts the power motor to separate the lower conveying roller and the upper conveying roller from the steel pipe, and then starts the driving motor and the longitudinal adjustment cylinder, and uses the welding position detection head to detect the roundness of the edge of the steel pipe weld. When the roundness meets the standard, it can be proved that the welds of the two steel pipes have been aligned, and then starts the longitudinal adjustment cylinder to make the welding gun head group contact the weld position, and then the steel pipe can be welded once and for all; 4. The present invention, when welding a short steel pipe, drives the steel pipe to rotate. Compared with the traditional welding gun head group, the welding gun head group is not only more stable during the welding process, but also can perform pre-welding circular simulation movement on the steel pipe before welding, so as to detect the quality of the steel pipe, ensure the quality of the weld after welding, and improve the welding accuracy; 5. The present invention abandons the traditional unidirectional clamping and positioning mechanism when welding short steel pipes. Through the cooperation of the upper conveying roller and the lower conveying roller that move in both directions and the cooperation of the two arc-shaped positioning boxes that move relative to each other, when welding steel pipes of different diameters, the axis of the two steel pipes can always be positioned at the center of the conveying cavity. When welding two steel pipes with relatively low welding accuracy requirements, the weld positions of the two steel pipes can be directly connected by rotating the conveying motor. The steel pipes are driven to rotate by the driving motor, and the edge of the steel pipe weld is pre-welded by the welding position detection head. The weld can then be welded by the welding gun head group. In the actual welding process, when the position of the welding gun head group and the weld deviates, the position of the welding gun head group can be fine-tuned by starting the transverse positioning cylinder so that the output end of the transverse positioning cylinder drives the welding slide plate to move.

[0032] Specifically, when the hollow positioning ring 20 drives the steel pipe to rotate, the longitudinal adjustment cylinder 33 is started, and the output end of the longitudinal adjustment cylinder 33 drives the longitudinal adjustment pressure sensor 34 to move, and the movement of the longitudinal adjustment pressure sensor 34 drives the welding head frame 35 to move, and the movement of the welding head frame 35 drives the welding position spring shock absorber 37, the welding position pressure sensor 38 and the welding position detection head 39 to move, so that one end of the welding position detection head 39 and the welding position of the steel pipe are squeezed and touched each other. As the steel pipe rotates, the roundness of the weld position of the steel pipe can be detected through the change of the value of the welding position pressure sensor 38, to ensure that there will be no excessive error after the weld positions of the two steel pipes are connected.

[0033] After the roundness of the steel pipe weld position is detected, the positioning motor is started to make the lower conveying roller 6 and the upper conveying roller 4 clamp the steel pipe again, and then the suction pump 22 is started to extract the gas in the hollow positioning ring 20 to separate the positioning rod 26 from the steel pipe, and the conveying motor 7 is started to make the weld positions of the two steel pipes dock below the welding gun head group 36, and then the air supply pump 21 is started to make the positioning rod 26 clamp the steel pipe, and the power motor 16 is started to separate the lower conveying roller 6 and the upper conveying roller 4 from the steel pipe, and then the driving motor 30 and the longitudinal adjustment cylinder are started, and the roundness of the edge of the steel pipe weld is detected by the welding position detection head 39. When the roundness meets the standard, it can be proved that the welds of the two steel pipes have been aligned, and then the longitudinal adjustment cylinder 33 is started to make the welding gun head group 36 contact the weld position, and the steel pipe can be welded once and for all.

[0034] Among them, the welding gun head group 36 is a device for welding steel pipes that is well known to those skilled in the art. The specific structure is not the main innovation of this application and will not be described in detail here.

[0035] It should be noted that when welding a shorter steel pipe, by driving the steel pipe to rotate, compared with the traditional rotation of the welding gun head group 36, the welding gun head group 36 is not only more stable during the welding process, but also the steel pipe can be pre-welded with a circular simulation motion before welding, so as to detect the quality of the steel pipe, ensure the quality of the weld after welding, and improve the welding accuracy.

[0036] When welding shorter steel pipes, the traditional unidirectional clamping and positioning mechanism is abandoned. Through the cooperation of the upper conveying roller 4 and the lower conveying roller 6 that move in both directions, and the cooperation of the two arc-shaped positioning boxes 25 that move relative to each other, when welding steel pipes of different diameters, the axis of the two steel pipes can always be positioned at the center of the conveying cavity. When welding two steel pipes with relatively low welding accuracy requirements, the weld positions of the two steel pipes can be directly connected by rotating the conveying motor 7, and the steel pipe is driven to rotate by the driving motor 30. The edge of the steel pipe weld is pre-welded by the welding position detection head 39, and then the weld is welded by the welding gun head group 36. In the actual welding process, when the position of the welding gun head group 36 deviates from the weld, the horizontal adjustment cylinder 32 can be started so that the output end of the horizontal adjustment cylinder 32 drives the welding slide 31 to move, and the position of the welding gun head group 36 can be fine-tuned.

[0037] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
