Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of welding robots, and in particular relates to an arch rib welding robot mechanism for a long-span steel tube concrete arch bridge. Background Art
[0002] Concrete-filled steel tube arch bridges are modern bridges that utilize a composite structure of steel tubes and concrete. They offer advantages such as large spans and beautiful shapes. Their arch supports are constructed from numerous prefabricated steel tube segments, assembled and welded on-site. However, due to site constraints, these supports are often welded manually, which is labor-intensive and can also negatively impact the health of workers during prolonged welding.
[0003] Therefore, the current arch-assisted welding has begun to have a walking welding trolley. For the arch-assisted welding of steel tube concrete arch bridges, the walking welding trolley is fixed on the steel tube segment by magnetic adsorption, and walks along the arch-assisted welding route. During the walking process, welding is performed. For example, the invention with patent announcement number CN110666285B discloses an automatic walking welding system for arch bridges, which includes a welding power cabinet, a wire feeder, an automatic walking welding trolley and a control system. The automatic walking welding trolley includes a trolley body, an adjustable permanent magnetic wheel module, a longitudinal movement module, a transverse movement module, a welding gun and a wire feeding tube. The trolley body is provided with a transverse movement module, the transverse movement module is provided with a longitudinal movement module, the bottom of the trolley body is provided with an adjustable permanent magnetic wheel module, and the welding power cabinet, wire feeder, adjustable permanent magnetic wheel module, longitudinal movement module and transverse movement module are all connected to the control system.

However, the control system controls the trolley's welding gun, which can only move vertically and horizontally in the longitudinal and transverse modules. It cannot steer, and can only adjust the distance between the welding gun and the weld seam as the trolley moves. This results in limited flexibility and poor adjustability.
