Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of laser welding, and more particularly to a laser welding device and method for irregular metal parts. Background Art

[0002] Laser welding equipment is one of the devices used for welding irregular metal parts. Common laser welding equipment is mainly composed of laser, optical system, mechanical system, control system, pneumatic system and auxiliary equipment. The specific process of laser welding equipment for welding irregular metal parts is as follows: 1. Laser beam irradiation: The laser beam generated by the laser is focused and guided by the optical system and irradiated on the surface of the workpiece; 2. Material heating and melting: After the laser beam is irradiated on the surface of the workpiece, the surface of the workpiece is rapidly heated to the melting point, and the material begins to melt and form a molten pool; 3. Weld formation: On the molten material, the gas shielded welding wire or the laser beam contacts the workpiece, generating an arc, melting the workpiece and forming a weld;

[0003] During the welding process of irregular metal parts, if the welding parts are uneven, the irregular metal parts after welding will have the following problems: 1. Deterioration of welding quality: uneven and irregular welds, rough corrugations, resulting in an unsmooth transition between the weld and the parent material, and poor quality of the welded joint; 2. Uneven strength of welded joints: Uneven welds will lead to uneven strength distribution of welded joints, prone to cracks and looseness, and reduce the overall strength of the welded structure; 3. Stress concentration: The unevenness of welds may lead to stress concentration, increasing the risk of damage to the welded structure when it is under load; 4. Performance degradation: The unsightly welds and poor bonding may affect the performance of welded joints, such as fatigue strength and impact resistance;

[0004] However, in the prior art, manual quality inspection is mainly used to determine whether the welding parts of irregular metal parts are uneven. Therefore, this process requires a certain amount of manpower waste. At the same time, if there are omissions in the manual quality inspection, the irregular metal parts after welding will have the above-mentioned situation, which will cause certain economic losses.

8. The method for using the laser welding equipment for irregular metal parts according to any one of claims 1 to 7, characterized in that: The steps include: Step 1: The irregular metal part is placed on the surface of the electric control limit device (103) for clamping and limit operation. After the limit operation is completed, the laser welding robot (104) performs welding operation on the irregular metal part. During the welding process, the dust removal and impurity removal mechanism (4) recovers the exhaust gas and smoke generated by the welding. When the analysis unit determines that the irregular metal part has a protruding position, the execution end controls the automatic grinding device (3) to grind the protrusion; The compressed air and adsorption force generated by the air pump (501) are transported to the dust and impurity removal mechanism (4) through the first Y-shaped tube (502) and the second Y-shaped tube (503), driving the telescopic plate (402) to perform stretching and contraction operations. The compressed air and adsorption force generated by the air pump (501) are transported to the inside of the detection mechanism (2) through the first Y-shaped tube (502), the first delivery tube (506), the main delivery tube (504) and the auxiliary delivery tube (505), driving the extrusion plate (208) to move to a corresponding position. Step 2: After the clamping and limiting of the irregular metal part is completed, the gas supply mechanism (5) generates compressed air and transmits it to the inside of the air pressure chamber (201), driving the extrusion plate (208) to move toward the bottom of the air pressure chamber (201), and the electric control lifting column (204) inputs current to drive the slider (205) and the air pressure chamber (201) to move toward the welding position of the irregular metal part. When the extrusion plate (208) contacts the welding position of the irregular metal part, the multiple groups of air pressure sensors (207) generate multiple groups of pressure data and transmit them to the air pressure collection module. The air pressure collection module transmits the multiple groups of pressure data to the analysis unit. The analysis unit determines whether convex points and concave points appear at each welding position of the irregular metal part according to each group of real-time pressure data. When the analysis unit determines that a convex point appears in a part of the irregular metal part, the execution end controls the manipulator (302) and the electric-controlled grinding device (303) to input a corresponding current to grind the convex point position at the welding part of the irregular metal part, thereby ensuring that the irregular metal part can be welded normally; Step 3: When the irregular metal parts are welded, the gas supply mechanism (5) generates compressed air and delivers it to the hollow frame (401) and the telescopic plate (402), driving the telescopic plate (402) to be in a stretched state, so as to drive the protective plate (403) to reach an optimal adsorption height. At the same time, the wind power supply device (405) generates adsorption air and delivers it to the surface of the irregular metal welding part through the storage cylinder (404), the telescopic tube (407), the delivery hole (408) and the adsorption hole (409), which is conducive to the recovery of smoke and waste gas generated during the welding process. The smoke and waste gas recovered in the storage cylinder (404) are eliminated and processed under the action of the air purification device to avoid causing certain pollution to the on-site working environment. When the automatic grinding device (3) performs the grinding operation, the adsorption air generated by the wind power supply device (405) drives the debris generated by the grinding of the irregular metal parts to be delivered to the storage cylinder (404) through the adsorption hole (409), the delivery hole (408) and the telescopic tube (407) for storage and management.
