Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of relay production, in particular to a relay production welding device. Background Art
[0002] Relay welding is a core process to ensure the electrical conductivity and mechanical strength of contacts. Traditional welding devices have the following technical defects: Serious waste of shielding gas Open workstations require continuous gas supply (argon flow rate ≥ 10L / min), and the actual utilization rate is less than 30%, which is very costly.
[0003] Direct gas emissions lead to a decrease in oxygen content in the workshop, posing a safety hazard.
[0004] Insufficient sealing reliability Static sealing rings are prone to aging at high temperatures (rubber hardness decreases by 40% at temperatures above 150°C), and air infiltration causes oxidation of solder joints (contact resistance increases by 20% to 50%).
[0005] Welding slag splashes and contaminates the contacts, and the removal rate of traditional dust collection devices is less than 70%.
[0006] Low production efficiency The single-station welding cycle is >45 seconds, which cannot match the automated production line rhythm (<25 seconds / piece).
[0007] The existing unresolved issues of gas recycling and dynamic filtration of welding slag result in an overall defect rate of >5%. Summary of the Invention
[0008] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a relay production welding device that solves the above-mentioned problems.
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: a relay production welding device, comprising a rotary welding table driven by a motor, the inner cavity of the rotary welding table having three evenly spaced processing stations for placing relays, a loading mechanism disposed on the side of the rotary welding table for loading materials, and a welding mechanism for welding the relays in the processing stations; The processing station includes an air storage tank and a processing tank distributed sequentially from bottom to top in the inner cavity of the rotary welding table. The top of the air storage tank is connected to the inner cavity of the processing tank through a connecting groove. The inner cavity of the air storage tank is slidably sealed with a piston plate driven by a cylinder. The side of the processing tank is connected to an air nozzle connected to a shielding gas source. The processing station also includes a filter mechanism arranged in the inner cavity of the rotary welding table for filtering the shielding gas. The welding mechanism includes a frame arranged on the side of the rotary welding table, the top of the frame is slidably connected to an upper cover plate driven by a driving mechanism, the inner cavity of the upper cover plate is equipped with a welding head, and the bottom of the frame is sealed with the processing station through a sealing mechanism. When in use, shielding gas is injected downward through the air nozzle in advance. Because the shielding gas is heavier than air, it sinks into the processing tank and the gas storage tank. Then, the relay is placed in the processing tank in the processing station through the loading mechanism, and then rotated 120 degrees to place the reed through the unloading mechanism, and then rotated 120 degrees to the bottom of the welding mechanism. At this time, the frame drives the upper cover plate to descend, driving the welding head and the sealing strip to descend. The sealing strip is embedded in the sealing groove to isolate the processing groove from the outside world. At this time, the welding head descends to weld, and is protected by the shielding gas to prevent contact with oxygen in the air. After the processing is completed, there may be sputtered solid impurities in the air. At this time, the piston plate descends to form a negative pressure in the gas storage tank, and the shielding gas is drawn into the gas storage tank, and then filtered through the filter to filter out the impurities, and then the double-rod cylinder drives the connecting rod to drive the filter to move back into the inner groove. At this time, the top of the filter is scraped by the sealing scraper, and the impurities on the surface are scraped into the storage tank for storage, and then the upper cover plate opens and rises, and the piston plate moves to squeeze the shielding gas in the storage tank upward and lift it into the gas storage tank for repeated recycling. Then the relay is taken out and the next cycle is carried out. The three-station cycle processing.
[0010] As a further solution of the present invention: the processing groove is embedded, and the air nozzle is located above the relay. The argon-nitrogen mixed gas shielding gas, which is heavier than air, is injected through the air nozzle. The shielding gas sinks and squeezes the air upwards, so that the relay is surrounded by the shielding gas, resulting in a better welding effect.
[0011] As a further solution of the present invention: the sealing mechanism includes a sealing strip fixed under the upper cover plate, and the processing station also includes a sealing groove arranged around the side of the processing groove and interference fit with the sealing strip. When the upper cover plate descends, the sealing strip is driven downward to be squeezed into the sealing groove, and under pressure, it is deformed to fill the gap and seal it.
[0012] As a further solution of the present invention: a one-way exhaust port is provided on the top of the upper cover plate, which forms a positive pressure under the squeeze of the protective gas to discharge the top air, and the slightly positive pressure environment can prevent the outside air from entering.
[0013] As a further solution of the present invention: the filtering mechanism includes an inner groove opened in the inner cavity of the rotary welding table, one end of the inner groove is connected to the connecting groove, the side of the inner groove is slidably connected to a connecting rod driven by a double-rod cylinder, one end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a filter screen that penetrates and extends to the inner cavity of the inner groove, the inner cavity of the inner groove is fixedly connected to a sealing gasket that abuts the bottom of the filter screen, the inner cavity of the rotary welding table is provided with a receiving groove connected to the inner cavity of the inner groove, and the top of the inner cavity of the inner groove is fixedly connected to a sealing scraper for wiping impurities off the surface of the filter screen.
[0014] As a further solution of the present invention: a guide opening is provided on the surface of the rotary welding table and is connected to the receiving groove through a bolt sealing lock, and the residue in the receiving groove can be cleaned through the guide opening.
[0015] As a further solution of the present invention: the volume of the gas storage tank is greater than the volume of the processing tank and the upper cover plate.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. Protective gas zero waste closed loop system The original five-step cycle of "injection-welding-recovery-filtration-regeneration" reduces argon consumption from 10L / piece to 0.5L / piece.
[0017] Micro-positive pressure + interference seal stabilizes the oxygen content in the welding area to less than 50ppm, and the oxidation rate of the solder joint is reduced from 5% to 0.08%.
[0018] 2. Automatic removal of welding slag The dynamic filter captures >99% of particles ≥50μm under negative pressure suction, and with the 45° inclined sealing scraper, the impurity removal rate is 100%.
[0019] The storage tank is removable, and the maintenance interval is extended from 8 hours to 1 week.
[0020] Gas-slag synchronous processing mechanism: piston plate air extraction and filter screen translation scraping slag timing linkage; Interference self-compensating seal: The trapezoidal sealing strip produces radial deformation under 0.2mm interference, and the high-temperature sealing force is increased by 3 times; Modular filter unit: The inner groove integrates filter screen / sealing scraper / storage slot to achieve quick cleaning in 5 seconds; Volume optimization design: gas storage tank volume > 1.5 times the sum of the processing tank + upper cover plate volume to ensure sufficient gas storage.
