Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of automated processing technology, and in particular to a layout planning method, device, electronic equipment and storage medium for a welding unit. Background Art

[0002] To improve production efficiency in the oil drum manufacturing industry, welding units within machine tools often require simultaneous welding at multiple locations on the drum base. Currently, welding unit layout planning often relies on engineers' experience. However, the complex internal structure of the machine tool, the varying drive parameters of the welding units, and the widely varying coordinates of the weld points on different drum bases create complex situations that are difficult to fully predict based on experience alone. Empirical planning cannot accurately consider the relationship between the machine tool's spatial constraints and the welding unit's drive characteristics, nor can it accurately match the weld point requirements of the drum base to be welded. This leads to numerous inappropriate layout issues in the welding units, which not only easily cause collisions and interference between welding equipment, increasing the risk of equipment failure and maintenance costs, but also lead to frequent and ineffective movement and repeated positioning of the welding units due to improper welding path planning, significantly reducing welding efficiency and severely impacting the continuity and overall profitability of oil drum production, making it difficult to meet the efficient and stable production requirements of modern manufacturing. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present application aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the present application proposes a layout planning method for a welding unit, which can improve the reliability of the welding unit layout and thus improve the production efficiency of the product.

[0065] To improve production efficiency in the oil drum manufacturing industry, welding units within machine tools often require simultaneous welding at multiple locations on the drum base. Currently, welding unit layout planning often relies on engineers' experience. However, the complex internal structure of the machine tool, the varying drive parameters of the welding units, and the widely varying coordinates of the weld points on different drum bases create complex situations that are difficult to fully predict based on experience alone. Empirical planning cannot accurately consider the relationship between the machine tool's spatial constraints and the welding unit's drive characteristics, nor can it accurately match the weld point requirements of the drum base to be welded. This leads to numerous inappropriate layout issues in the welding units, which not only easily cause collisions and interference between welding equipment, increasing the risk of equipment failure and maintenance costs, but also lead to frequent and ineffective movement and repeated positioning of the welding units due to improper welding path planning, significantly reducing welding efficiency and severely impacting the continuity and overall profitability of oil drum production, making it difficult to meet the efficient and stable production requirements of modern manufacturing.

[0066] Based on this, the present application provides a layout planning method, device, electronic device and storage medium for a welding unit to solve the technical problems raised above. The technical solutions provided by the present application are described in detail one by one below.

[0067] First, refer to Figure 1 , the present application provides a layout planning method for a welding unit, which may include but is not limited to the following steps:

[0068] Step S110: Acquire the spatial map inside the machine tool and the driving parameter information of the welding unit.

[0069] Step S120: performing image scanning processing on the workpiece to be welded to determine the workpiece size information of the workpiece to be welded and the welding station coordinates corresponding to each welding point.

[0070] Step S130: Obtaining constraints on the welding unit layout.

[0071] Step S140: Based on the constraint conditions, a unit layout plan is generated according to the space map, the driving parameter information and the welding station coordinates; wherein the unit layout plan includes the installation coordinates of each welding unit.

[0072] Step S150: In response to the first instruction, based on the constraint conditions, modify the installation coordinates of the corresponding welding unit and update the unit layout plan.

[0073] Step S160: In response to the second instruction, the newly generated unit layout solution is sent and rendered on a preset display unit.

[0074] In steps S110 to S160, the spatial map inside the machine tool and the driving parameter information of the welding unit are first obtained, and the image scanning and processing of the workpiece to be welded is performed at the same time to determine the workpiece size information and the welding station coordinates corresponding to each welding point. The constraints and restrictions of the welding unit layout are obtained, and the limiting factors of various aspects such as the machine tool space and equipment performance are clarified. Based on the constraints and restrictions, an algorithm is used to generate a unit layout plan, including the installation coordinates of each welding unit, according to the spatial map, driving parameter information and welding station coordinates. At the same time, after the planning is completed, the installation coordinates of the corresponding welding unit can be modified based on the constraints and restrictions in response to the user's first instruction, and the unit layout plan can be updated. Finally, in response to the second instruction, the newly generated unit layout plan is sent and rendered to the preset display unit for the operator to intuitively view and further adjust. By acquiring data such as the machine tool space map, welding unit drive parameters, and workpiece welding point coordinates, the layout planning is established on the basis of objective data. This can effectively handle the complex situations caused by the interweaving of these factors, avoid planning deviations due to lack of experience, rationally plan the installation coordinates of the welding unit, reduce the risk of collision and interference between equipment, and improve the reliability of the welding unit layout, so that products can be welded simultaneously, thereby improving product production efficiency.

[0075] Reference Figure 2 It is understood that the driving parameter information includes the initial state size information and working radius information of the welding unit. In step S130, the following steps may be included but not limited to:

[0076] Step S210: Determine a maximum distance threshold between the welding unit and the welding station coordinates according to the working radius information.

[0077] Step S220: Determine the minimum distance threshold between each welding unit according to the initial state size information.

[0078] Step S230: obtaining a preset welding point influence threshold of the workpiece to be welded.

[0079] Step S240: combining the maximum distance threshold, the minimum distance threshold, and the solder joint influence threshold to form a constraint condition.

[0080] In step S210, the welding unit's working radius information is spatially mapped to the coordinates of the weld stations on the bottom plate of the oil drum to be welded. With each weld point as the center and the welding unit's working radius as the reference, the maximum allowable distance between the welding unit's installation location and the weld point (i.e., the maximum distance threshold) is calculated. For example, if a welding unit has a working radius of 500mm, the maximum distance threshold between it and the weld point can be set to 450mm, leaving a 50mm safety margin. When generating the layout plan, installation locations that exceed this threshold are automatically excluded to ensure that the welding unit can effectively cover all weld points.

[0081] In step S220, a three-dimensional spatial model is constructed based on the initial dimensional information of the welding units (e.g., length, width, and height). The spatial trajectories of adjacent welding units during motion are simulated, and the minimum distance required to avoid collisions is calculated. For example, if the lateral dimensions of two welding units are both 300 mm, the minimum distance threshold can be set to 400 mm to ensure a safe clearance of 50 mm. During layout planning, the installation coordinates of any two welding units must meet the minimum distance threshold to prevent equipment collisions.

[0082] In step S230, process parameters such as the heat impact and spatter effect between welds are determined for the oil drum bottom plate welding process. For example, the heat impact range of adjacent welds is an area with a diameter of 80 mm. When determining the weld station coordinates, the weld impact threshold is automatically verified to ensure weld quality.

[0083] In steps S210 to S240, the traditional "trial and error" method is transformed into "data-driven" intelligent planning through precise mathematical modeling and spatial constraints. This method is particularly suitable for the automated welding production scenario of oil drum bottom plates of various specifications. It can effectively handle the complex situations caused by the interweaving of these factors, avoid planning deviations caused by lack of experience, rationally plan the installation coordinates of the welding units, reduce the risk of collision and interference between equipment, and improve the reliability of the welding unit layout, so that products can be welded simultaneously, thereby improving product production efficiency.

[0084] Reference Figure 3 It is understood that step S140 may include but is not limited to the following steps:

[0085] Step S310: Based on the weld point influence threshold, the weld points are classified according to all welding station coordinates to determine a number of weld groups; wherein each weld group has at least one weld point.

[0086] Step S320: Based on the maximum distance threshold, the initial installation coordinates are determined according to the spatial map, all welding work coordinates in the welding group, and the initial state size information.

[0087] Step S330: Based on the minimum distance threshold, all initial installation coordinates are adjusted to obtain the target installation coordinates of each welding unit.

[0088] Step S340: Generate a unit layout plan based on the target installation coordinates of all welding units.

[0089] In steps S310 to S340, all welds on the oil drum bottom plate are spatially clustered based on the weld impact threshold, and welds with a distance less than the weld impact threshold are divided into the same welding group to ensure that the process impact between welds in the group is controllable. For each welding group, based on the maximum distance threshold, all candidate installation areas that can cover all welds in the group are screened in the machine tool space map. Based on the welding work coordinates, locations with high space utilization and no conflict with other equipment are preferentially selected as the initial installation coordinates. All initial installation coordinates are checked pairwise. If the distance between any two welding units is found to be less than the minimum distance threshold, the coordinate adjustment mechanism is triggered to ensure that the layout plan achieves the best balance between safety and effectiveness. Through weld group optimization, the reasonable allocation of welding tasks is achieved. In the welding of oil drum bottom plates, circumferential welds and axial welds can be assigned to different welding groups respectively to reduce equipment idle travel. The constraint-based coordinate optimization makes the welding unit layout more compact.

[0090] Reference Figure 4 It is understood that step S310 may include but is not limited to the following steps:

[0091] Step S410: Calculate the distance between each welding point and other welding points according to the welding station coordinates.

[0092] Step S420: When the welding distance value is greater than the welding point influence threshold, the corresponding welding points are grouped as a welding group.

[0093] Step S430: When the distance between the welding points is less than the welding point influence threshold, the corresponding at least two welding points are collectively regarded as a welding group.

[0094] In steps S410 to S430, the spatial coordinates of all weld points on the workpiece to be welded are extracted, and the distance between any two weld points is calculated. The distance between each weld point is compared with a preset weld point influence threshold. If the distance between two weld points is greater than the threshold, they have no mutual influence and are grouped independently. If the distance is less than the threshold, they are grouped together and processed by the same welding unit. This rational grouping avoids thermal interference and process interactions between adjacent weld points, optimizes the welding sequence, and improves weld quality and stability.

[0095] Reference Figure 5 It is understandable that step S320 may include but is not limited to the following steps:

[0096] Step S510: Determine, based on the space map, the vertical coordinates of the welding unit when the installation mode is vertical installation and the vertical coordinates of the welding unit when the installation mode is suspended installation;

[0097] Step S520: determining the installation mode of the welding unit corresponding to the welding group according to the distribution of the welding points in the welding group on the workpiece to be welded, and determining the vertical coordinate in the initial installation coordinate according to the installation mode;

[0098] Step S530: Based on the maximum distance threshold, the initial installation coordinates are determined according to all welding work coordinates and initial state size information in the welding group.

[0099] In steps S510 through S530, the feasible vertical coordinate positions of the welding units for both vertical and suspended installations are calculated based on the machine tool spatial map, providing basic data for subsequent selection. The distribution characteristics of the weld points within the welding group on the oil drum floor are analyzed to select the most suitable installation method. The vertical coordinates of the initial installation coordinates are determined based on the selected installation method to ensure the spatial orientation of the welding units. If the weld points in the welding group are all distributed on the top surface of the workpiece to be welded, the corresponding welding units can be installed as suspended ceilings on the bottom of the machine tool. If the weld points in the welding group are all distributed on the side of the workpiece to be welded, the corresponding welding units can be installed as vertical installations. Subsequently, based on the initial state dimension information of the welding units, the optimal plane coordinate positions that cover all weld points in the welding group are calculated, completing the determination of the initial installation coordinates. By rationally selecting the installation height and plane position, the internal space of the machine tool is effectively utilized, equipment interference is avoided, and the overall layout is compact.

[0100] Reference Figure 6 It is understood that step S530 may include but is not limited to the following steps:

[0101] Step S610: When there is a welding work coordinate in the welding group, determine the initial installation coordinate closest to the welding work coordinate based on the welding work coordinate and the initial state size information of the welding unit; wherein the distance between the initial installation coordinate and the welding work coordinate is less than the maximum distance threshold.

[0102] Step S620: When there are two or more welding work coordinates in the welding group, the welding center coordinates are determined according to the welding work coordinates, and the initial installation coordinates closest to the welding center coordinates are determined according to the welding center coordinates and the initial state size information of the welding unit; wherein the distance between the initial installation coordinates and the welding center coordinates is less than the maximum distance threshold.

[0103] In steps S610 to S620, when there is only one welding work coordinate within a welding group, this coordinate is used as a reference, combined with the initial state dimension information of the welding unit, to search for the location within the machine tool space closest to this coordinate, with a distance less than a maximum distance threshold. This location is then determined as the initial installation coordinate, ensuring that the welding unit can efficiently reach the weld point location. If there are two or more welding work coordinates within the welding group, the geometric center of these coordinates is first calculated to obtain the welding center coordinate. Then, using the welding center coordinate as a reference, combined with the initial state dimension information of the welding unit, the location closest to the welding center coordinate that meets the maximum distance threshold is found and determined as the initial installation coordinate, ensuring that the welding unit can accommodate multiple weld points within the group. In these steps, the precise determination of the initial installation coordinate enables the welding unit to reach the weld point via the shortest path, reducing wasted movement and shortening welding preparation time. Furthermore, the coordinates are determined based on the maximum distance threshold to ensure that the welding unit covers all weld points within its working radius, avoiding welding blind spots.

[0104] Reference Figure 7 It is understood that step S330 may include but is not limited to the following steps:

[0105] Step S710: Calculate the installation distance between the initial installation coordinate and other initial installation coordinates.

[0106] Step S720: When the installation distance value is greater than or equal to the minimum distance threshold, the initial installation coordinate is used as the target installation coordinate of the corresponding welding unit.

[0107] Step S730: When the installation distance value is less than the minimum distance threshold, the initial installation coordinates are adjusted based on the maximum distance threshold until the installation distance value is greater than or equal to the minimum distance threshold, and the adjusted initial installation coordinates are used as the target installation coordinates of the corresponding welding unit.

[0108] In steps S710 through S730, the spatial distances between all initial installation coordinates are calculated. If the installation distance between two coordinates is greater than or equal to the minimum distance threshold, they are retained as the target coordinates. If the installation distance is less than the minimum distance threshold, the coordinates are adjusted along the edge of the weld coverage area, using the maximum distance threshold as a constraint, until the safety distance requirement is met. The adjusted coordinates are then re-evaluated, and multiple rounds of optimization are performed as necessary to ensure that the distances between all welding units meet the safety threshold. By enforcing the safety distance constraint, collisions between welding units during movement are avoided, reducing the risk of equipment damage.

[0109] Secondly, refer to Figure 8 The present application further provides a layout planning device 800 for a welding unit, comprising:

[0110] A first acquisition module 810 is used to acquire a spatial map inside the machine tool and driving parameter information of the welding unit;

[0111] The scanning module 820 is used to perform image scanning processing on the workpiece to be welded, and determine the workpiece size information of the workpiece to be welded and the welding station coordinates corresponding to each welding point;

[0112] A second acquisition module 830 is used to obtain the constraint conditions of the welding unit layout;

[0113] A planning module 840 is configured to generate a unit layout plan based on the constraints, the spatial map, the drive parameter information, and the welding station coordinates; wherein the unit layout plan includes the installation coordinates of each welding unit;

[0114] a modification module 850 for modifying the installation coordinates corresponding to the welding unit and updating the unit layout plan based on the constraint conditions in response to the first instruction;

[0115] The display module 860 is configured to send and render the newly generated unit layout solution to a preset display unit in response to the second instruction.

[0116] The specific implementation of the layout planning device of the welding unit is basically the same as the specific embodiment of the layout planning method of the welding unit described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0117] In a third aspect, the present application also provides an electronic device comprising: at least one memory, at least one processor and at least one program, wherein the program is stored in the memory, and the processor executes one or more programs to implement the above-mentioned layout planning method of the welding unit.

[0118] The electronic device first obtains a spatial map of the machine tool's interior and the drive parameters of the welding units. It then scans and processes an image of the workpiece to be welded, determining the workpiece dimensions and the corresponding welding station coordinates for each weld point. It then obtains constraints for the welding unit layout, identifying various limiting factors, such as machine space and equipment performance. Based on these constraints, an algorithm generates a unit layout plan, including the installation coordinates of each welding unit, using the spatial map, drive parameter information, and welding station coordinates. After planning is complete, the system can respond to a first user command to modify the installation coordinates of the corresponding welding units based on the constraints and update the unit layout plan. Finally, in response to a second user command, the newly generated unit layout plan is sent and rendered on a pre-set display unit for easy viewing and further adjustment by the operator. By acquiring data such as the machine tool's spatial map, welding unit drive parameters, and workpiece weld point coordinates, the layout plan is based on objective data. This effectively addresses the complexities arising from the interplay of these factors, avoids planning errors caused by inexperience, rationally plans the welding unit installation coordinates, reduces the risk of collisions and interference between devices, and improves the reliability of the welding unit layout, enabling simultaneous welding of products and ultimately increasing production efficiency.

[0120] The memory may include a program storage area and a data storage area, wherein the program storage area may store an operating system and application programs required for at least one function; the data storage area may store data related to the layout planning method of the welding unit, etc. In addition, the memory may include a high-speed random access memory and may also include a non-volatile memory, such as at least one disk storage device, a flash memory device, or other non-volatile solid-state storage device. In some embodiments, the memory may optionally include a memory remotely located relative to the processor, and these remote memories may be connected to the processing module via a network. Examples of the above-mentioned network include, but are not limited to, the Internet, an intranet, a local area network, a mobile communication network, and combinations thereof.
