[0038] Through the setting of this device, the detection and alignment of the weld position of the workpiece are automatically completed, the weld position is positioned after alignment, and the weld is automatically welded after positioning is completed. Through the setting of the inner longitudinal seam welding mechanism 2 and the outer longitudinal seam welding mechanism 3, the outer longitudinal seam and the inner longitudinal seam of the cylindrical workpiece are automatically welded, with a high degree of automation, high processing efficiency, precise welding position and high welding quality.

[0044] In one embodiment, the longitudinal moving mechanism 63 and the transverse moving mechanism 62 are both servo transmission systems composed of a servo motor, a screw rod 36, and a nut seat; using the servo transmission system as a driver, the transmission position is accurate and reliable.

[0045] In one embodiment, the outer longitudinal seam welding machine 31 includes a column 311, a beam 312 slidably mounted on the column 311, a welding movable frame 313 slidably mounted on the beam 312, a welding frame 314 slidably mounted on the welding movable frame 313, a manual adjustment mechanism 315 mounted on the welding frame 314, and a welding machine 316 mounted on the manual adjustment mechanism 315.

[0046] The column 311 is equipped with a servo transmission system for driving the crossbeam 312 to move up and down; the crossbeam 312 is equipped with a rack 32, and the welding movable frame 313 is equipped with a motor 1 33, which is connected to a gear 34 that meshes with the rack 32; the welding movable frame 313 is equipped with a motor 2 35, which is transmission-connected to a screw rod 36, which is movably connected to the welding frame 314;

[0047] The servo drive system provided on the column 311 drives the beam 312 to move up and down when the beam 312 moves up and down. When the beam 312 moves laterally, the motor 33 drives the gear 34 to rotate. When the gear 34 rotates, it engages with the rack 32 to drive the welding movable frame 313 to move on the beam 312.

[0048] When the welding frame 314 moves up and down, the motor 2 35 drives the screw rod 36 to rotate. When the screw rod 36 rotates, it drives the welding frame 314 to move up and down through the spiral cooperation with the welding frame 314.

[0049] In one embodiment, the manual adjustment mechanism 315 includes a transverse adjustment frame 37 mounted on the welding frame 314, a longitudinal adjustment frame 371 slidably mounted on the transverse adjustment frame 37, an adjustment screw 372 mounted on the transverse adjustment frame 37 and the longitudinal adjustment frame 371, and an adjustment handwheel 373 mounted on one end of the adjustment screw 372. The longitudinal adjustment frame 371 is movably connected to the adjustment screw 372 mounted on the transverse adjustment frame 37, and the welding machine 316 is movably connected to the adjustment screw 372 mounted on the longitudinal adjustment frame 371.

[0050] Through the setting of the manual adjustment mechanism 315, the up, down, left and right positions of the welding machine 316 can be fine-tuned. During manual adjustment, the adjustment hand wheel 373 is rotated, and the adjustment hand wheel 373 drives the adjustment screw rod 372. When the adjustment screw rod 372 rotates, it is adjusted up, down, left and right by screw cooperation with the longitudinal movable frame or the welding machine 316.

[0051] In one embodiment, the inner longitudinal seam welding machine 21 includes an inner longitudinal seam frame 211 mounted on the base 1, an inner longitudinal seam moving frame 212 slidably mounted on the inner longitudinal seam frame 211, a rack 32 mounted on the inner longitudinal seam frame 211, a motor 3 213 mounted on the inner longitudinal seam moving frame 212, a gear 34 mounted on the motor 3 213 and transmission-connected to the rack 32, an inner longitudinal seam longitudinal moving frame 214 slidably mounted on the inner longitudinal seam moving frame 212, a servo transmission system provided on the inner longitudinal seam moving frame 212 for driving the inner longitudinal seam longitudinal moving frame 214 to move up and down, an inner longitudinal seam transverse moving frame 215 slidably mounted on the inner longitudinal seam longitudinal moving frame 214, a servo transmission system provided on the inner longitudinal seam longitudinal moving frame 214 for driving the inner longitudinal seam transverse moving frame 215 to move transversely, and a welding machine 316 mounted on the inner longitudinal seam transverse moving frame 215;

[0052] When the inner longitudinal seam welding machine 316 moves forward and backward, the motor 3 213 is started and the gear 34 on the motor is driven to rotate. The gear 34 drives the inner longitudinal seam moving frame 212 to move on the inner longitudinal seam machine frame 211 through engagement with the rack 32. When moving up and down, the servo transmission system provided on the inner longitudinal seam moving frame 212 drives the inner longitudinal seam longitudinal moving frame 214 to move up and down; when moving horizontally, the servo transmission system provided on the inner longitudinal seam longitudinal moving frame 214 drives the inner longitudinal seam transverse moving frame 215 and the welding machine 316 to move horizontally.

[0053] In one embodiment, the machine further includes a detection and adjustment mechanism 8 for detecting the position of the workpiece weld and automatically adjusting the position of the workpiece according to the detection result so that the workpiece weld is in a set position; the detection and adjustment mechanism 8 includes a detection mechanism 7 and an adjustment mechanism 8; the detection mechanism 7 includes a detection frame 71, a laser emitter 72 mounted on the detection frame 71 for emitting a reference line, a detection cylinder 73 mounted on the detection frame 71, and a CCD camera 74 mounted on the detection cylinder 73; the adjustment mechanism 8 also includes an adjustment frame 81, an adjustment frame 82 slidably mounted on the adjustment frame 81, an adjustment roller 83 movably mounted on the adjustment frame 82, an adjustment motor 84 mounted on the adjustment frame 82 and transmission-connected to the adjustment roller 83, and a servo transmission system provided on the adjustment frame 81 for driving the adjustment frame 82 to move; the adjustment roller 83 is also mounted on the contact sensor 85;

[0054] By detecting the setting of the adjustment mechanism 8, the adjustment mechanism 8 drives the workpiece to rotate to adjust the weld position. At the same time, the CCD camera 74 is set to take pictures in real time to align the weld with the set weld position. The captured image is transmitted to the control system in real time and compared with the standard image set in advance in the control system to determine the weld position.

[0055] When locating the weld seam, the standard position image of the weld seam is set in the control system in advance. The weld seam position can also be determined by the laser line emitted by the laser emitter 72 as the reference line of the weld seam in the standard image.

[0056] When adjusting the circumferential position of the workpiece, the servo transmission system drives the adjustment frame 82 to move forward. During the process of the adjustment frame 82 driving the adjustment roller 83 to move forward, when the contact sensor 85 contacts the workpiece, it sends a signal to the control system. The control system controls the servo transmission system to stop the action. At this time, the adjustment roller 83 is in contact with the surface of the workpiece, and then the adjustment motor 84 is controlled to start. The adjustment motor 84 drives the adjustment roller 83 to rotate. The adjustment roller 83 is driven to rotate by the friction between the adjustment roller and the workpiece until the weld moves to the set position and stops. The control system controls the servo system to drive the adjustment roller 83 to reset.

[0057] In one embodiment, an angle adjustment mechanism 9 for adjusting the angular position of the workpiece is further included, wherein the angle adjustment mechanism 9 comprises angle adjustment frames 91 provided on both sides of the tooling 4, an electric hydraulic cylinder 92 installed on the angle adjustment frame 91, and a ball head 93 installed at the end of the piston rod of the electric hydraulic cylinder 92;

[0058] Through the setting of the angle adjustment mechanism 9, when there is a deviation between the weld on the workpiece itself and the axis of the workpiece, when the weld is in the set weld position, the set laser line is emitted by the laser, and then the CCD camera 74 is used to shoot again. The shot image is compared with the set standard image again to determine whether there is a deviation between the weld and the laser line used as a reference. If there is a deviation, the angle adjustment mechanism 9 is controlled to fine-tune the angle of the workpiece according to the deflection direction. During adjustment, the electric hydraulic cylinder 92 on the side with the deviation is started, and the electric hydraulic cylinder 92 controls the piston rod and the ball head 93 to extend, and the workpiece is pushed by the ball head 93. Real-time detection is performed during the pushing process. When the weld is aligned with the laser line, the pushing is stopped. At this time, the weld position is accurate, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the welding position and improving the welding quality.

[0059] The ball head 93 is provided so as to achieve better contact between the ball head and the workpiece without any sharp corners at the contact position.

[0060] At the same time, the workpiece can be better clamped after the workpiece angle is adjusted. Elastic flexible pads can be added to the positioning block 1 43 and the clamping block 46 to adapt to the two ends of the workpiece with an inclined angle. At the same time, a flexible pad can also be added to the positioning block 2 65 on the lifting claw 64.

[0061] When the present invention is used:

[0062] When automatically welding the outer longitudinal seam of a workpiece: first, a worker moves the workpiece onto the rotating roller 42 of the tooling 4 of the outer longitudinal seam welding mechanism 3 by means of a lifting device or other equipment;

[0063] Then the control system controls the laser to emit a laser line, controls the detection cylinder 73 to start, and the detection cylinder 73 drives the video transmitter to move forward to the set position and turns on the CCD camera 74. The CCD camera 74 takes pictures and transmits the pictures to the control system, and compares them with the standard pictures set in the control system. If the weld is not in the set position, the control system controls the servo transmission system to drive the adjustment frame 82 to move forward. During the process of the adjustment frame 82 driving the adjustment roller 83 to move forward, when the contact sensor 85 contacts the workpiece, it sends a signal to the control system, and the control system controls the servo transmission system to stop the action. At this time, the adjustment roller 83 is in contact with the surface of the workpiece, and then controls the adjustment motor 84 to start. The adjustment motor 84 drives the adjustment roller 83 to rotate, and the adjustment roller 83 is driven to rotate by the friction between the adjustment roller 83 and the workpiece.

[0064] During the process of the workpiece being rotated by the adjusting roller 83, real-time photography is performed by the CCD camera 74. When the weld moves to the set position, the control system stops the rotation and controls the adjusting frame 82 to reset.

[0065] At this time, the image captured by the CCD camera 74 is compared with the set standard image to determine whether there is an angular deviation between the weld and the standard laser line. If there is an angular deviation, the control system controls the angle adjustment mechanism 9 to fine-tune the angle of the workpiece according to the deflection direction. During adjustment, the electric hydraulic cylinder 92 on the side with the deviation is activated. The electric hydraulic cylinder 92 controls the piston rod and ball head 93 to extend, and the ball head 93 pushes the workpiece. Real-time detection is performed during the pushing process. When the weld is aligned with the laser line, the pushing stops.

[0066] At this time, if the diameter of the workpiece does not need to be lifted, the cylinder 47 is controlled to push out the pressing block 46, and the pressing block 46 presses the workpiece tightly to fix the workpiece, and the positioning of the workpiece is completed at this time;

[0067] If the workpiece needs to be lifted, the control system controls the lifting fixtures 6 on both sides of the workpiece to start, and drives the lifting claws 64 to be inserted into the workpiece at the same time through the lateral movement mechanism 62 until the second positioning block 65 abuts against the end of the workpiece and the inner wall of the workpiece contacts the lining device to complete the fixation of the workpiece;

[0068] Then the control system controls the adjustment mechanism 8 to reset; then the control system controls the longitudinal movement mechanism 63 to drive the workpiece to move upward to the set position;

[0069] Then the control system controls the outer longitudinal seam welding machine 31 to drive the welding machine 316 to weld the outer longitudinal seam of the workpiece;

[0070] After welding is completed, the tooling 6 is lifted and the workpiece is placed on the rotating roller 42 or the cylinder 47 drives the pressing block 46 to reset. At this time, the staff can move the workpiece to the next process or move it to the rotating roller 42 of the tooling 4 of the inner longitudinal seam welding mechanism 2;

[0071] When welding the inner longitudinal seam of a workpiece:

[0072] Similarly, the weld position is detected by the detection mechanism 7, and the adjustment mechanism 8 is controlled to rotate the workpiece until the weld position is at the set position. The angle of the workpiece is adjusted according to the laser line. After the weld is aligned with the laser line, the control system controls the cylinder 47 to drive the pressing block 46 to press the workpiece tightly and complete the fixation of the workpiece.

[0073] After the workpiece is fixed, the control system controls the inner longitudinal seam welding machine 21 to drive the welding machine 316 to weld the inner longitudinal seam of the workpiece according to the set path. After the welding is completed, the control cylinder 47 drives the clamping block 46 to reset, and then the worker operates the lifting equipment to remove the workpiece with the inner and outer longitudinal seams welded, and the welding work of the workpiece is completed.

[0074] The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and its variations. Conventional modifications and replacements made by those skilled in the art based on the contents of this embodiment fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
