Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of plasma cladding, and in particular relates to plasma cladding equipment for metal parts. Background Art
[0002] Plasma cladding technology utilizes a plasma arc as a heat source to melt the filler metal, fusing it with the base metal to achieve a metallurgical bond. The plasma generated between the tungsten electrode (negative electrode) and the base metal (positive electrode) is used as heat to raise the surface of the workpiece to the operating temperature. Welding powder is then fed into this heat zone, melting it and depositing it on the workpiece surface, strengthening and hardening the surface.

Not only is the preheating box integrated into the cladding equipment, the preheating effect is improved and the processing efficiency is effectively improved, but also by integrating a metal powder cutting component into the cold ion nozzle, the flow stage of the metal powder can be immediately cut off after the cladding is completed, avoiding waste of metal powder and contamination of the workpiece surface, thereby improving the processing quality.
[0041] To further optimize the solution, the conveyor belt 3 is made of metal.
[0042] A further optimized solution is provided, in which a working head 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the plasma nozzle 7, and the working head 6 is transmission-connected to the moving assembly. A tungsten electrode 11 is vertically slidingly connected inside the plasma nozzle 7, and the bottom of the tungsten electrode 11 is arranged near the nozzle 16. A lifting control component is provided between the tungsten electrode 11 and the working head 6, and the lifting control component is transmission-connected to the metal powder cut-off assembly.

[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, the shielding gas duct 13 is connected to the inert gas supply device through the working head 6. In this embodiment, argon gas can flow in the shielding gas duct 13. When performing the cladding process, the argon gas is sprayed toward the periphery of the processing area to isolate oxygen.

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, at the end of cladding, the driving motor drives the gear 8 to rotate counterclockwise, and the gear 8 drives the rack 9 to rise, thereby driving the collar 10 to rise, and finally the tungsten electrode 11 is lifted up, increasing the distance between the tungsten electrode and the workpiece, which is conducive to the rapid stop of cladding.
[0047] A further optimized solution is that the metal powder cutting assembly includes a sealing plate 12 vertically slidably connected to the plasma nozzle 7, the top of the sealing plate 12 is fixedly connected to the collar 10, the bottom of the sealing plate 12 passes through the powder feeding channel 14, and a through hole 15 is provided at the bottom of the side wall of the sealing plate 12. When the tungsten electrode 11 is in a low position, the through hole 15 is connected to the powder feeding channel 14. When the tungsten electrode 11 is in a high position, the powder feeding channel 14 is cut off by the sealing plate 12.
[0048] like Figure 2The figure shows the cladding process, in which the tungsten electrode 11 and the sealing plate 12 are in a low position, and the through hole 15 is in the powder feeding channel 14, allowing metal powder to flow through the through hole 15 to the outlet of the powder feeding channel 14. When the cladding process is completed, the tungsten electrode 11 is lifted, driving the sealing plate 12 to move upward synchronously. At this time, the through hole 15 moves upward from the powder feeding channel 14, and the bottom of the sealing plate 12 seals the powder feeding channel 14. At this time, the metal powder can be immediately stopped by the sealing plate 12, effectively avoiding the waste of metal powder.

[0051] like Figure 5 As shown, by fixing a number of positioning protrusions 26 on the conveyor belt 3, a number of fixture plates 25 placed on the conveyor belt 3 can be placed in an equidistant state. During the stepping movement of the conveyor belt 3, the fixture plates 25 can be accurately placed in the loading position, preheating position, processing position and unloading position in sequence, thereby realizing the simultaneous loading, preheating, processing and unloading.
[0052] To further optimize the solution, the adjusting part includes a screw rod 34 rotatably connected to the clamp plate 25, a slider 35 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate 27, the slider 35 is threadedly sleeved on the screw rod 34, one end of the screw rod 34 is coaxially rotatably connected to a worm gear 36, a worm 37 is rotatably connected in the clamp plate 25, the worm 37 is meshed with the worm gear 36, and an adjustment handwheel is transmission-connected to the worm 37.
[0053] like Figure 4 As shown, when a workpiece needs to be placed, the adjusting handwheel is first turned to rotate the worm 37. The worm 37 drives the worm wheel 36 to rotate the screw 34. When the screw 34 rotates, the movable plate 27 moves to the right through the thread transmission, increasing the distance between the movable plate 27 and the fixed plate 29. After the workpiece is placed between the fixed plate 29 and the movable plate 27, the adjusting handwheel is turned in the opposite direction to move the movable plate 27 to the left, thereby clamping the workpiece.
[0054] A further optimized solution is that the positioning parts include two groups of slides 18 that are horizontally slidably connected to the two opposite inner walls of the support frame 1, and telescopic rods 19 are respectively transmission-connected between the two slides 18 and the support frame 1. The telescopic rods 19 are used to adjust the distance between the two slides 18, and a number of limit pins 20 are horizontally fixedly connected to the opposite side walls of the two slides 18.

[0055] like Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, after one set of clamp plates 25 moves step by step with the conveyor belt 3 into the support frame 1, two sets of telescopic rods 19 push the two slides 18 outward, and allow several limit pins 20 on the two slides 18 to be inserted into several positioning holes 33 on both sides of the clamp plate 25, fixing the clamp plate 25 in the processing position. At the same time, the two slides 18 clamp the clamp plate 25 to fix the position of the clamp plate 25.
[0056] To further optimize the solution, a turntable 28 is coaxially rotatably connected to the opposite side walls of the fixed plate 29 and the movable plate 27, and a rotating shaft 31 is rotatably connected inside the fixed plate 29. One end of the rotating shaft 31 is coaxially fixedly connected to the turntable 28, and the other end of the rotating shaft 31 passes through the fixed plate 29 and is provided with a spline hole 32 inwardly. A driving motor 17 is fixedly connected to the slide plate 18 near the fixed plate 29, and the output shaft of the driving motor 17 is coaxially fixedly connected to the spline shaft 21.

[0057] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, when machining a circular shape, it is necessary to rotate the workpiece around the axis. Therefore, a turntable 28 is provided on the fixed plate 29 and the movable plate 27, respectively, to allow the workpiece to rotate. At the same time, after the limit pin 20 is inserted into the positioning hole 33, the spline shaft 21 is inserted into the spline hole 32 to achieve a transmission connection between the drive motor 17 and the rotating shaft 31. Therefore, during the machining process, the drive motor 17 can drive the workpiece to be machined to deflect around the axis by a certain angle.

The two sets of movable driving members can respectively drive the transverse sliding beam 4 and the longitudinal sliding frame 5 to slide perpendicularly to each other in the same horizontal plane. At the same time, a lifting driving member is provided between the longitudinal sliding frame 5 and the working head 6, which is used to adjust the height of the working head 6, thereby changing the distance between the nozzle 16 and the workpiece, thereby realizing plasma cladding processing at any position on the surface of the workpiece.
