Pipeline systems are key infrastructure for transporting various fluid media (such as oil, natural gas, chemical raw materials, etc.) in industrial production. The welding quality of pipelines and flanges is directly related to the safety, reliability and stability of the entire pipeline system.
[0003] At present, in the welding operation of pipes and flanges, the operation process of existing equipment is usually to manually use measuring tools such as rulers to accurately position the pipes and flanges. After completing the positioning, the technicians will evenly weld several positioning welds at the connection between the flange and the pipe to initially fix the relative position of the two. Then, the welding equipment will drive the pipe and flange to rotate, and at the same time, the welding gun will perform automatic welding operations on them.
[0004] However, during actual welding, due to the vibration generated by the operation of the machine and the inevitable thermal stress during the welding process, the flange is prone to tilt on the pipeline, causing the welded flange to deviate too much from the initial position, burying a great hidden danger to the safe operation of the entire pipeline system. In order to solve this problem, the present invention proposes a precision welding device for pipeline flanges. Summary of the invention

At this time, the axial clamping of the flange is completed, which can reduce the deviation between the flange and the pipeline caused by machine vibration and thermal stress during welding.

[0022] Further, such as Figures 3 to 5As shown, the support mechanism includes two bases 32, the two bases 32 are fixedly mounted on the first disc 10 and the positioning shaft 24 respectively, a second electric telescopic rod 33 is mounted on the inner wall of the base 32, a support disc 28 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the second electric telescopic rod 33, a first connecting rod 30 is evenly rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the support disc 28, a support plate 29 is rotatably mounted on the side of the first connecting rod 30 away from the support disc 28, a second connecting rod 31 is rotatably mounted on the side of the support plate 29 away from the first connecting rod 30, a side of the second connecting rod 31 away from the support plate 29 is rotatably mounted on the base 32, and the second connecting rod 31 is rotatably connected to the first connecting rod 30; When the second electric telescopic rod 33 moves, it drives the support plate 28 to move, and the support plate 28 drives the first connecting rod 30 to move. The first connecting rod 30 rotates around the rotation connection with the second connecting rod 31 as a rotating axis, driving the support plate 29 to tighten or expand.
[0023] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the lower end surface of the pipe 6 is symmetrically abutted with a plurality of support wheels 8, the inner wall of the support wheel 8 is slidably mounted with a first round rod 7, both ends of the first round rod 7 are rotatably mounted with fixed rods 9, and the lower end surface of the fixed rod 9 is fixedly mounted on the support frame 2; The supporting wheel 8 supports the pipeline 6 , and when the pipeline 6 moves, the supporting wheel 8 can slide on the first round rod 7 .
[0024] Further, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a turntable 15 is rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the second disk 21 , the interior of the turntable 15 is in a cavity state, and a fixing frame 1 is rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the turntable 15 , and the lower end surface of the fixing frame 1 is mounted on the support frame 2 .
[0025] Further, such as Figure 1 As shown, a support rod 3 is installed on the outer wall of the welding gun 4, and the support rod 3 is installed on the fixing frame 1 away from the welding gun 4; The support rod 3 adjusts the position of the welding gun 4 .

[0027] Further, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a spring telescopic rod 16 is installed on the inner wall of the rotating disk 15, and the spring telescopic rod 16 abuts against the extrusion plate 17 on the side away from the rotating disk 15; The spring telescopic rod 16 is reset to push the extrusion plate 17 to move away from the servo motor 13. The extrusion plate 17 pushes the third round rod 25 back to the initial position. The first slide groove 26 on the third round rod 25 squeezes the round pin 27 to make the second disc 21 rotate in the opposite direction. At this time, the positioning rod 22 no longer clamps the flange 5. When the extrusion plate 17 squeezes the second baffle plate 20 , the second baffle plate 20 drives the second round rod 19 to move, and the second round rod 19 drives the limiting rod 23 to move, the flange 5.

[0029] Further, such as Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the positioning shaft 24 is slidably connected to the rotating disk 15; When the turntable 15 rotates, the positioning shaft 24 and the flange 5 are driven to rotate, and the positioning shaft 24 drives the pipeline 6 to rotate through the support plate 29 .
[0030] Working principle: Step 1: First, place the pipe 6 above the support wheel 8, and sleeve the flange 5 on the outside of the positioning shaft 24, and then control the first electric telescopic rod 11 to extend, and the first electric telescopic rod 11 drives the first disc 10 to extend. At this time, the support plate 29 is inserted into the pipe 6, and then the second electric telescopic rod 33 is controlled to shrink, and the second electric telescopic rod 33 drives the support plate 28 to shrink. The support plate 28 will squeeze the first connecting rod 30, and the first connecting rod 30 squeezes the support plate 29 outward, and at this time, the second connecting rod 31 rotates with the rotating connection with the first connecting rod 30 as the rotating axis, so that the support plate 29 is completely in contact with the inner wall of the pipe 6.
[0031] Step 2: When the support plate 29 abuts against the inner wall of the pipe 6, the first electric telescopic rod 11 continues to extend, and the first disc 10 pushes the pipe 6 to move. At this time, the pipe 6 drives the support wheel 8 to move on the first round rod 7. When the pipe 6 abuts against the positioning shaft 24, the support plate 29 on the positioning shaft 24 is controlled to open and also abut against the inner wall of the pipe 6. At this time, the pipe 6 completes the support. As the first electric telescopic rod 11 continues to extend, the pipe 6 begins to squeeze the positioning shaft 24, and the positioning shaft 24 moves into the turntable 15. At this time, the positioning shaft 24 drives the third round rod 2 5 moves, the first slide groove 26 on the outer wall of the third round rod 25 starts to squeeze the round pin 27, the round pin 27 drives the second disc 21 to rotate, the second disc 21 squeezes the positioning rod 22 through the third slide groove 35, the positioning rod 22 drives the slider 36 and the limit rod 23 to descend, when the positioning rod 22 is clamped on the outer wall of the flange 5, it is clamped radially, at this time, the flange 5 is consistent with the axis of the pipeline 6, and the gap between the inner wall of the flange 5 and the outer wall of the pipeline 6 is equal, and at the same time, the direction of the first slide groove 26 is changed to be consistent with the axial direction of the third round rod 25, and the second disc 21 no longer rotates.
[0032] Step 3: When the third round rod 25 moves, it will squeeze the squeezing plate 17, and the squeezing plate 17 will squeeze the spring telescopic rod 16. The squeezing plate 17 will drive the second slide groove 34 to slide on the second round rod 19. When the positioning rod 22 is clamped on the outer wall of the flange 5, the squeezing plate 17 will abut against the first baffle 18, and the limiting rod 23 will be driven to move by the second round rod 19. The limiting rod 23 squeezes the flange 5 to make it close to the outer wall of the turntable 15 and clamp it axially. At this time, the radial and axial clamping of the flange is completed, which can reduce the impact of subsequent machine vibration and thermal stress.
[0033] Step 4: When the limiting rod 23 makes the flange 5 close to the outer wall of the turntable 15, the position of the welding gun 4 is adjusted, and then the servo motor 13 is controlled to rotate, the servo motor 13 drives the turntable 15 to rotate, and the turntable 15 drives the pipe 6 and the flange 5 to rotate, and the welding gun 4 performs welding.
