TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of welding, and particularly relates to a small water tank automatic welding device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Welding refers to a process of forming permanent connection by using or not using filler material through heating, pressing or both, and welding can be used for metal and non-metal; and in the manufacturing process of a circular water tank, top welding is a key step to ensure the sealing performance and structural strength of the water tank. However, in the actual production process, the welding operation of the circular water tank faces a series of challenges, especially in welding positioning and clamping, and welding heat and cooling management.
[0003] Specifically, the conventional welding device often lacks self-adaptive clamping capability for water tanks of different sizes when welding the circular water tank. Since the sizes of the water tanks are various, the conventional fixed clamping device cannot meet the diversified production requirements, which not only limits the universality of the device, but also may cause the water tank to be unable to be stably fixed in the clamping process, thereby affecting the precision and safety of welding. Secondly, when welding the top of the water tank, the welding area will generate extremely high temperature, and as the distance from the welding area gradually increases, the temperature gradually decreases. The cooling air flow of the water tank is often unable to be accurately adjusted according to the temperature distribution of the welding area, which leads to insufficient cooling in the high-temperature area and excessive cooling in the low-temperature area, causing waste of resources and reduction of cooling efficiency, thereby affecting the production efficiency and cost control.

[0072] and when the water tank is positioned firmly, the welding mechanism 30 is started by program control, the cooperation between longitudinal drive assembly 31, transverse drive assembly 32, angle adjusting assembly 34 and welding gun 35 is used to realize the welding operation of the top of the water tank, and by the setting can flexibly adjust the welding angle to adapt to the welding requirement of the surface of the circular water tank, so as to improve the automation degree and flexibility of the welding operation, ensure the uniformity and consistency of the welding quality;
[0073] Further, in the process that the clamping part 51 clamps the water tank, the extrusion piece 524 extrudes the first air bag 532 based on the reaction force when the fitting assembly 52 clamps the water tank, drives the gas in the first air bag 532 to the second air bag 533 along the air pipe, makes the second air bag 533 begin to expand and become larger, and pushes the movable plate 535 and the cooling plate 534 to move by the expanded second air bag 533, so that the cooling plate 534 extends outward along the two sides of the clamping part 51, thereby wrapping the water tank and forming a cooling area; and when the welding gun 35 welds the water tank, the cooling gas pump 54 is started by the program control, the cooling gas flow is delivered to the cooling shell 531 along the air hose 541 by the cooling gas pump 54, and then the cooling gas flow is sprayed to the surface of the water tank by the cooling nozzle 537 on the cooling shell 531, so that the cooling gas flow can uniformly and accurately cover the surface of the water tank, thereby realizing the cooling of the water tank; and by providing the first air hole 5371 and the second air hole 5372 on the cooling nozzle 537, when the cooling gas flow passes through the first air hole 5371 and the second air hole 5372, the inner diameter of the first air hole 5371 is larger than that of the second air hole 5372, so that the flow speed of the cooling gas flow is accelerated when the cooling gas flow passes through the smaller inner diameter of the second air hole 5372, thereby enhancing the cooling effect of the water tank; in addition, the cooling nozzle 537 can accurately guide the cooling gas flow to the surface of the water tank, and by decreasing the number of the cooling nozzle 537 from top to bottom, the intelligent distribution of the cooling gas flow is realized, more cooling gas flow is guided to the high-temperature area, i.e., the top of the water tank, to rapidly reduce the local temperature and prevent thermal stress concentration and weld deformation, and the supply of the cooling gas flow is reduced in the area with relatively low temperature, thereby avoiding the waste of resources and improving the cooling efficiency and the welding quality and efficiency.
