Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of molybdenum metal processing, in particular to a butt welding mechanism for molybdenum metal processing. Background Art

[0002] As a strategic rare metal, molybdenum occupies an irreplaceable position in the modern industrial system due to its outstanding physical and chemical properties. Its melting point of 2620°C, among the highest among metal materials, is accompanied by excellent high-temperature strength, electrical and thermal conductivity. At room temperature, it exhibits a silvery-white metallic luster, a density of 10.2g / cm³, and exceptional hardness. These properties make it a core material in key areas such as specialty steelmaking, aerospace engine components, nuclear reactor structures, and electrodes for high-end electronic devices. For example, in the aerospace sector, molybdenum alloys are widely used in the manufacture of rocket engine nozzle throat liners due to their ability to maintain stable mechanical properties above 1600°C. In the nuclear energy sector, molybdenum-based alloys, due to their radiation resistance and corrosion resistance, are important candidates for nuclear fuel cladding. In the electronics industry, high-purity molybdenum rods, used as sputtering targets and electrode materials, directly impact the precision and stability of chip manufacturing.

[0003] Butt welding is the core process for connecting molybdenum rods, and its quality directly determines the mechanical properties and safety and reliability of the final product. For example, offset or cold welds in the butt welds of molybdenum alloy components in nuclear reactors can lead to radioactive material leakage. Insufficient weld strength in molybdenum alloy connectors in aircraft engines can cause structural failure in high-temperature and high-pressure environments, with disastrous consequences. Therefore, the positioning stability and precision control of the molybdenum rods during the butt welding process have become key bottlenecks restricting the expansion of molybdenum metal applications.

[0004] The traditional butt welding mechanism used in molybdenum metal processing has significant limitations in positioning design. The current mainstream positioning methods mostly rely on mechanical clamping structures, such as bolt-fastened V-blocks or manually adjusted chucks. Such structures have poor adaptability and cannot flexibly match molybdenum rods of different diameters and lengths. When processing molybdenum rods of different specifications, the positioning components need to be disassembled and replaced. The adjustment process is time-consuming and seriously restricts production efficiency. At the same time, the positioning accuracy of existing butt welding equipment is insufficient. The gap between the mechanical structure and the error of manual adjustment can easily cause the center axis of the molybdenum rod to deviate, and the coaxiality of the weld is reduced. In addition, the clamping force of existing butt welding equipment is uneven. Molybdenum rods are hard but brittle. Local stress concentration during mechanical clamping can easily cause microcracks. Especially in the processing of thin molybdenum rods, the occurrence of cracks will increase material loss.

[0005] In addition to mechanical positioning, some existing butt welding mechanisms use hydraulic drive to improve positioning efficiency. However, the inherent characteristics of hydraulic systems result in response lag, making dynamic compensation difficult at the moment of welding. Furthermore, hydraulic oil has poor high-temperature stability and is prone to leakage and workpiece contamination in the high-temperature environment of molybdenum butt welding. Furthermore, existing mechanisms offer a single positioning dimension, often only achieving vertical or horizontal fixation while ignoring forward and backward constraints. During welding, the molybdenum rod is susceptible to axial movement due to the arc impact and thermal stress, resulting in weld defects such as beveling or lack of fusion. Summary of the Invention

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. In the present invention, by providing an auxiliary adjustment component and adopting a multi-directional pneumatic positioning method, the fixed state can be flexibly adjusted according to the length and diameter of the molybdenum rod to be welded. The V-shaped structures on both sides of the top of the placement frame cooperate with the pressure frames arranged symmetrically in opposite directions.

The side frame securely holds its position after movement through pneumatic extrusion using an air cylinder, extrusion column, and extrusion plate, combined with real-time monitoring by a pressure sensor. These multi-directional constraints effectively prevent the molybdenum rod from shifting due to arc shock or thermal stress during welding, fundamentally preventing defects such as weld offset and cold welds, significantly improving welding quality.

[0017] 3. The use of pneumatic components such as air pumps, cylinders, and pistons to drive positioning offers faster response and more precise pressure regulation compared to traditional mechanical clamping or hydraulic drives. Precise control via solenoid valves allows for rapid switching between pressing the press frame and securing the side frames, reducing clamping and adjustment time. Furthermore, pneumatic operation avoids gap errors in mechanical structures and lag issues in hydraulic systems, further improving positioning accuracy and ensuring weld coaxiality and strength.

[0018] 4. Detailed designs such as the sliding limit of the sliding frame by the fixed rail, the movement constraint of the piston by the limit rod, and the timely discharge of cylinder gas by the exhaust pipe ensure the stability of the mechanism operation; the setting of elastic components such as the auxiliary spring, the first spring, and the second spring not only assists in the reset of each component, but also provides a buffer during the positioning process to avoid rigid damage to the molybdenum rod. The overall structural layout is compact, and there is no need to frequently disassemble and replace components during operation, which greatly reduces manual intervention and improves the convenience of operation and product quality consistency in mass production.

The locking reinforcement structure includes a T-shaped plate 9 fixed to the front and back of each group of placement racks 2. The two adjacent groups of T-shaped plates 9 are symmetrically arranged in reverse. Each group of T-shaped plates 9 is symmetrically inserted with an arc-shaped plate 16 fixed at one end to the pressure frame 15. The arc-shaped plate 16 is evenly fixed on the side away from the pressure frame 15. A plurality of groups of second teeth 17 are evenly fixed.

One end of the pump 24 and the I-shaped pipe 30 is connected to a main pipe 33 fixed to the bottom of the placement plate 1 through a side block. The two adjacent groups of air cylinders 38 are connected to a second connecting frame 34 on the side away from each other. The end of the second connecting frame 34 away from the air cylinder 38 is connected to the main pipe 33.

Both ends of the main pipe 33 are provided with The third solenoid valve 36, the second solenoid valve 32 and the third solenoid valve 36 are designed to quickly discharge the gas in the cylinder 26 and the air cylinder 38, and with the cooperation of the first spring 28 and the second spring 41, the auxiliary piston 27 and the extrusion column 39 can be quickly reset. By setting up an auxiliary adjustment component, the two adjacent groups of pressure frames 15 can be driven pneumatically to swing downward synchronously, and cooperate with the placement rack 2 with a V-shaped structure on both sides of the top to quickly position the molybdenum rod according to the size of the molybdenum rod, and the auxiliary spring 7 can be used to drive the side frame 3 to move inward, so as to push the two groups of molybdenum rods to quickly fit together and be in a centered state according to the length of the molybdenum rod. At the same time, the side frame 3 can be quickly positioned by pneumatic extrusion after moving, so that the side end of the molybdenum rod can be quickly fixed. At this time, a multi-directional pneumatic positioning method is adopted, and the length and diameter of the welding molybdenum rod can be quickly and stably fixed in multiple directions according to the needs, so as to avoid the molybdenum rod from easily moving during the welding process, and avoid weld offset or cold welding, and the pneumatic method has higher accuracy.

[0023] Working principle: The user pulls the side frame 3 in advance to stretch the auxiliary spring 7, and then the user places the two groups of molybdenum rods to be welded on the two groups of placement frames 2 respectively. The top two sides of the placement frame 2 are designed in a V-shaped structure, which can adapt to molybdenum rods of different sizes. At this time, the elastic rebound of the auxiliary spring 7 can be used to drive the side frame 3 to move inward and perform preliminary extrusion and positioning on the molybdenum rods. At this time, the two groups of molybdenum rods are fitted to each other and are in a centered state on the placement plate 1. Then the user turns on the air pump 24 through the controller. , auxiliary solenoid valve 31 and first solenoid valve 35, at this time, the air pump 24 delivers the gas to the I-shaped pipe 30 and the main pipe 33 through the first connecting frame 25, and then the main pipe 33 delivers the gas to the second connecting frame 34, and then to the multiple groups of gas cylinders 38, which can push the extrusion column 39 to move inward and fit on the extrusion plate 8. At this time, the pressure sensor 40 can monitor the pressure value in real time. When the value reaches the preset value, the corresponding first solenoid valve 35 is closed in time. At this time, the bottom frame 37 can be quickly opened by pressing the extrusion column 39. The V-shaped plate 4 provides auxiliary support for the side end of the molybdenum rod, and the I-shaped tube 30 delivers gas to multiple groups of cylinders 26, thereby pushing the piston 27 upward, thereby driving the sliding frame 13 to move upward synchronously. At this time, the first tooth 14 on the sliding frame 13 is engaged with the first gear 11, thereby driving the first gear 11 to rotate, thereby driving the pressure frame 15 to swing downward, and pressing the top of the molybdenum rod to position, and the auxiliary ratchet 21, the third spring 23, the pawl 22, the second gear 20 and the second tooth 17, and the arc plate 16, can form an auxiliary support structure for the pressure frame 15, thereby improving the pressing stability of the pressure frame 15. At this time, a multi-directional pneumatic positioning method is adopted, and the length and diameter of the molybdenum rod to be welded can be quickly and stably fixed in multiple directions according to the needs, thereby avoiding the position movement of the molybdenum rod during welding, avoiding weld offset or cold welding, and the pneumatic method has higher accuracy.

[0024] However, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the working principles and wiring methods of the air pump 24 and the controller are commonplace, and are conventional means or common knowledge, and will not be elaborated here. Those skilled in the art can make any selections according to their needs or convenience.

[0025] In the present invention, by providing an auxiliary adjustment component and adopting a multi-directional pneumatic positioning method, the fixed state can be flexibly adjusted according to the length and diameter of the molybdenum rod to be welded. The V-shaped structure on both sides of the top of the placement frame 2 cooperates with the pressure frame 15 set symmetrically in opposite directions. The pressure frame 15 can be swung by pneumatic drive to adapt to molybdenum rods of different diameters and achieve stable pressing in the up and down directions; the side frame 3 can move along the sliding groove 5 under the action of the auxiliary spring 7. With the help of pneumatic extrusion positioning, it can push the two groups of molybdenum rods to quickly fit and keep them centered according to the length of the molybdenum rods, achieving precise horizontal constraint, solving the problem that the traditional positioning method is single and cannot adapt to various specifications.

[0026] In the auxiliary adjustment assembly, the press frame 15 achieves stable swinging through the linkage of the transverse shaft 10, the first gear 11, and the sliding frame 13. A locking and reinforcement mechanism, formed in conjunction with the curved plate 16, the second teeth 17, the auxiliary ratchet 21, and the pawl 22, creates a self-locking support, preventing the press frame 15 from tilting or loosening during welding. The side frame 3 securely holds its position after movement through pneumatic compression using the air cylinder 38, the extrusion column 39, and the extrusion plate 8, combined with real-time monitoring by the pressure sensor 40. These multi-directional constraints effectively prevent the molybdenum rod from shifting due to arc shock or thermal stress during welding, fundamentally preventing defects such as weld offset and cold welds, significantly improving welding quality.

[0027] The use of pneumatic components, including an air pump 24, cylinder 26, and piston 27, to drive positioning offers faster response and more precise pressure regulation compared to traditional mechanical clamping or hydraulic drives. Precise solenoid valve control allows for rapid switching between pressing the press frame 15 and securing the side frame 3, reducing clamping and adjustment time. Furthermore, pneumatic operation avoids gap errors in mechanical structures and hysteresis in hydraulic systems, further improving positioning accuracy and ensuring weld coaxiality and strength.

[0028] The detailed designs such as the sliding limit of the sliding frame 13 by the fixed rail 12, the movement constraint of the piston 27 by the limit rod 29, and the timely discharge of gas from the cylinder 26 by the exhaust pipe ensure the stability of the mechanism operation; the setting of elastic components such as the auxiliary spring 7, the first spring 28, and the second spring 41 not only assists in the reset of each component, but also provides a buffer during the positioning process to avoid rigid damage to the molybdenum rod. The overall structural layout is compact, and there is no need to frequently disassemble and replace components during operation, which greatly reduces manual intervention and improves the convenience of operation and product quality consistency in mass production.

[0029] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
