Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of centering detection, and in particular to a portable spot welding electrode centering detection device and method. Background Art

[0002] Resistance spot welding is a welding process commonly used for connecting metal materials. A weld is formed by pressurizing two pieces of metal and heating them with an electric current. Electrode alignment ensures that the electrodes always maintain the correct contact position during the welding process to ensure welding quality and consistency. The existing spot welding motor alignment detection device still has some defects.

[0003] For example, the invention patent with publication number CN102470477A discloses an electrode inspection device for spot welding. Since the distance from the electrode to the camera via the reflector is constant, the measured value is unlikely to deviate. Moreover, since the reflector can be used to photograph the electrode tip from the front by the camera, the top diameter in at least two directions can be measured at one time by processing the photographic image in the calculation unit. In this way, the diameter of the electrode tip can be accurately measured without reducing the production line operation rate, that is, whether it is circular. The mirror surfaces on both sides of the reflector simultaneously reflect the top of each electrode, and the images of a pair of electrode tips can be taken at the same time, so that the electrode tips can be measured without reducing the production line operation rate. Moreover, since there is no camera between the tops of a pair of electrodes, but only a reflector, the distance between the electrodes of the main body of the inspection device can be shortened, thereby forming an overall compact structure. Although the above-mentioned device can ensure the compactness of the overall structure, during the resistance spot welding process, the spot welding electrodes are often offset due to external forces such as interference with the workpiece and unreasonable assembly of the spot welding parts, resulting in misalignment between the upper and lower electrodes, causing the spot welding quality to decline. It is impossible to accurately adjust the centering detection range, and it is impossible to use the movable support structure to adjust the overall support range of the device during detection, and the adaptability is insufficient.

[0060] In this embodiment, the marking component 21 includes a moving groove 2102 and a groove 2104 opened on the second support plate 10, a marking block 2101 is slidably installed in the moving groove 2102, a rubber connecting block 2106 is fixedly arranged on the marking block 2101, a moving groove 2102 and an extension groove 22 are opened on the second support plate 10, a convex rod 23 is slidably installed in the extension groove 22, the convex rod 23 and the support rod 4 are fixedly connected, a scale mark 2103 is arranged on the second support plate 10, a damping block 2105 is fixedly arranged in the groove 2104, the marking component 21 has the same connection structure as the first support plate 9 and the second support plate 10, the device can move the support rod 4 to a suitable position of the first support plate 9 or the second support plate 10, so that the two rubber connecting blocks 2106 are sleeved on the position of the support rod 4, and then the support position of the support rod 4 is accurately adjusted by the marking block 2101 and the scale mark 2103, so that the support range of the device can be adjusted according to the size of the detection area later.

[0061] Specifically, the present invention is a portable spot welding electrode neutrality detection device and method, first, as Figure 1As shown, replace the electrode caps of the new upper electrode 6 and the lower electrode 7 or use an electrode grinder to grind the electrodes, reduce the influence of the bonding surface state of the upper electrode 6 and the lower electrode 7 on the magnetic field around the electrodes, and adjust the appropriate welding parameters. The upper electrode 6 and the lower electrode 7 are installed on the lower PCB board 2 and the upper PCB board 5 so that the central axis of the upper electrode 6 and the lower electrode 7 are collinear. Select appropriate welding parameters to energize the electrodes, and use the electromagnetic detection Hall sensor 3 to detect the electrical signal of the magnetic field size around the electrodes while energizing, and use the data acquisition device 8 to collect and record each magnetic field electrical signal. Use the data acquisition device 8 to process the collected data, determine whether the electrode is centered, the direction W and size H of the electrode offset, and display them on the screen, and perform alarm processing for neutral deviations that exceed the range.

[0062] like Figure 1-Figure 6 and Figure 10-12 As shown, when the device is in use, the support range of the device is adjusted according to the position to be detected. Since the adjustment component 17 and the locking component 19 are the same as the connection structure between the upper PCB board 5 and the lower PCB board 2, and the marking component 21 is the same as the connection structure between the first support plate 9 and the second support plate 10, the device can use the extension groove 22 and the circular groove 20 to allow the protruding rod 23 on the support rod 4 to slide between the first support plate 9 and the second connecting plate 15, between the second support plate 10 and the first connecting plate 12, on the lower PCB board 2 and the upper PCB board 5, thereby adjusting the support position of the four support rods 4, moving the support rod 4 to the appropriate position of the first support plate 9 or the second support plate 10, so that the two rubber connecting blocks 2106 are sleeved on the position of the support rod 4, and then the support position of the support rod 4 is accurately adjusted by the marking block 2101 and the scale mark 2103. The support range of the device is adjusted according to the size of the detection area. The damping block 2105 in the groove 2104 can tighten the support rod 4, so that the support rod 4 remains fixed after being adjusted to the appropriate position. During the centering test, the electric push rod 1305 can be shortened and the upper electrode 6 can be pressed down by the pressing plate 1306, so that the pressing rod 1304 presses down the spring button 1303, so that the upper electrode 6 can be automatically energized during the working process. Figure 3-Figure 12 As shown, when the device adjusts the detection range, the docking rod 1903 is pulled upward, so that the support spring 1904 is compressed, and the docking rod 1903 can be moved out of the docking groove 1902, and the lap plate 1901 and the swivel 1701 are rotated to pull the elastic rope 1702 on one side of the electromagnetic detection Hall sensor 3, so that the electromagnetic detection Hall sensor 3 rotates in the through hole 18. When the electromagnetic detection Hall sensor 3 performs eccentric circular motion, the detection range of the device can be changed to adapt to different detection needs. When the electromagnetic detection Hall sensor 3 is adjusted to a suitable position, the docking rod 1903 is inserted into the docking groove 1902 through the support spring 1904, and the adjustment and fixation of the detection range of the device are completed.

[0063] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
