Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of sheet metal welding technology, specifically to a welding device for automotive sheet metal parts and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Sheet metalworking is a comprehensive cold-working process for thin metal sheets. Products manufactured using sheet metalworking are called sheet metal parts. Automotive sheet metal parts are automotive components produced using sheet metalworking and used in the final assembly of automobiles. Welding of sheet metal parts is a crucial step in automotive manufacturing. Modern automobile production utilizes assembly line operations, requiring the welding of dozens of sheet metal parts per minute, demanding high speed, high precision, and high repeatability from the welding equipment. The increasing difficulty of traditional manual welding to meet the efficiency demands of large-scale production, coupled with rising labor costs, has driven the development of automated welding equipment.

[0003] Existing devices primarily use laser beams or electric arcs to thermally melt welding electrodes to weld sheet metal parts. Many existing technologies resemble precision laser welding machines for automotive sheet metal parts. The structure disclosed in CN118650293B includes a fixed base, with an electric telescopic rod fixedly connected to the top of the fixed base. A limit bracket is also fixedly connected to the top of the fixed base, and a laser welding assembly is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limit bracket via a support. This invention eliminates the need for manual joining of the two substrates, effectively reducing the gap after joining and maintaining the flatness of the substrate surface. However, there are still areas for improvement in this device.

[0004] Automotive sheet metal parts, such as doors, roof panels, and covers, are mostly thin metal sheets, making it difficult for some parts to fit tightly against the vehicle frame during welding. This can lead to problems such as incomplete welds at some joints. Furthermore, some devices struggle to deliver welding rods stably to the welding area, resulting in uneven weld formation. Finally, some devices have difficulty preheating and guiding inert gas, making it difficult to spray the gas evenly to the welding area. This can cause some weld points to dissipate heat too quickly and become brittle, reducing the efficiency and usability of the device. Therefore, to solve these problems, an automotive sheet metal welding device and its usage method are proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0049] A worm gear 306 is meshed with the rear side of the outer wall of the transmission worm 305. A rotating shaft 307 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the transmission worm gear 306. The front end of the rotating shaft 307 is movably connected to the right side of the inner wall of the transmission box 108.

A drive feed wheel 309 is fixedly connected to the front side of the outer wall of the rotating shaft 307 inside the feeding box 107. Through this design, the transmission worm 305 meshes and drives the transmission worm gear 306 and the rotating shaft 307 to rotate in a limited position, so that the rotating shaft 307 drives the main gear 308 and the drive feed wheel 309 to rotate synchronously.

Through this design, the main gear 308 meshes and drives the secondary gear 310 and the movable shaft 311 to rotate in a limited position. The movable shaft 311 drives the driven feeding wheel 312 to rotate synchronously, so that the active feeding wheel 309 cooperates with the driven feeding wheel 312 to continuously feed welding rods.

[0051] A hexagonal bolt 313 is inserted on the left side of the feeding rack 106. The right end of the hexagonal bolt 313 passes through the feeding rack 106 and is threaded with a threaded sleeve 315. The outer wall of the hexagonal bolt 313 is located inside the feeding rack 106 and a feeding roll 314 is fitted inside it. The outer wall of the feeding roll 314 is wrapped with welding rod material. One end of the welding rod material passes through the mounting frame 105, the feeding box 107, and the MIG arc welding gun 109 in sequence. The outer wall of the welding rod material is in close contact with the gap between the active feeding wheel 309 and the driven feeding wheel 312. Through this design, the hexagonal bolt 313 can be used with the threaded sleeve 315 to fit the feeding roll 314 onto the feeding rack 106, which facilitates the replacement of the feeding roll 314 and the welding rod material.

[0052] The flow guiding mechanism 4 includes a linkage gear 401, the top center of which is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the transmission worm gear 305.

A sleeve 403 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the driven gear 402, and turbine blades 404 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 403. A ball bearing 405 is fixedly connected to the top of the sleeve 403, and the inner ring of the ball bearing 405 is fixedly connected to the lower outer wall of the MIG welding torch 109. This design enables the transmission worm gear 305 to drive the sleeve 403 to rotate in a limited position via the linkage gear 401 and the driven gear 402, causing the sleeve 403 to drive the turbine blades 404 to rotate synchronously. This allows the turbine blades 404 to disperse and guide the inert gas to the welding area.

[0053] A ceramic heating element 406 is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner wall of the MIG arc welding torch 109. The outer ring of the ceramic heating element 406 has vent holes. An inert gas delivery pipe 407 is fixedly connected to the upper right side of the outer wall of the MIG arc welding torch 109. A conductive nozzle sleeve 408 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the MIG arc welding torch 109. Preheating with inert gas by the ceramic heating element 406 effectively prevents the weld joint from becoming brittle due to excessive heat dissipation.

[0054] The operation method of the automotive sheet metal welding device is as follows: First, the fiber pulse laser 110 is activated by the controller 102, so that the laser beam of the fiber pulse laser 110 acts on the joint of the overlapping sheet metal parts to form a deep penetration hole with a predetermined depth-to-width ratio, providing an energy guiding channel for the electric arc. Then, the MIG arc welding gun 109 is activated by the controller 102, so that the MIG arc fills the hole and melts the welding wire to form a continuous weld. By adjusting the energy ratio of the laser and the arc, it can adapt to different plate thicknesses and material requirements.

[0055] When sheet metal parts need to be pressed, the first motor 201 is started by the controller 102. The first motor 201 drives the transmission screw 202 to rotate in a limited position. The transmission screw 202 drives the push screw 203 to slide downward. The push screw 203 drives the lifting frame 104 to slide along the limit bar 204. The lifting frame 104 elastically presses down the mounting frame 105 through the spring 206. The mounting frame 105 presses down the overlapping sheet metal parts through the ball seat 207 and the rolling ball 208, thus realizing the pressing operation of the sheet metal parts.

[0056] When it is necessary to feed the welding rod, the second motor 301 is first started by the controller 102. The second motor 301 drives the transmission shaft 302 to rotate in a limited position. The transmission shaft 302 drives the first bevel gear 303 to rotate synchronously. The first bevel gear 303 meshes with and drives the second bevel gear 304 and the transmission worm gear 305 to rotate in a limited position. The transmission worm gear 305 meshes with and drives the transmission worm wheel 306 and the rotating shaft 307 to rotate in a limited position. The rotating shaft 307 drives the main gear 308 and the active feeding wheel 309 to rotate synchronously. The main gear 308 meshes with and drives the secondary gear 310 to rotate. The secondary gear 310 drives the movable shaft 311 and the driven feeding wheel 312 to rotate in a limited position, so that the active feeding wheel 309 cooperates with the driven feeding wheel 312 to continuously feed the welding rod, realizing the welding rod feeding operation.

[0057] When preheating and guiding the inert gas is required, the inert gas is first preheated by the ceramic heating element 406. At the same time, the transmission worm gear 305 drives the linkage gear 401 to rotate. The linkage gear 401 meshes and drives the driven gear 402 to rotate. The driven gear 402 drives the sleeve 403 and the outer ring of the ball bearing 405 to rotate in a limiting position. The sleeve 403 drives the turbine blades 404 to rotate synchronously, so that the turbine blades 404 disperse and guide the inert gas to the welding point, thus realizing the preheating and guiding operation of the sheet metal part. The operation ends here.
