[0046] The specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0047] like Figures 1-18 As shown, the discrete automatic welding workstation includes a moving ground rail 1, a welding jig 2, a positioning device 3, and a welding device 4. This workstation is suitable for the non-standard bulk material handling equipment manufacturing industry, covering welding operations for large structural components such as box girders, turntables, and booms, as well as medium and small-sized products such as trolley frames and balance beams. The workstation configuration can be flexibly changed according to product type to meet the welding needs of various products.

[0048] Mobile rails 1 are laid on the ground, providing a path for the corresponding equipment. There are two mobile rails 1, arranged parallel to each other with a gap between them. The two rails 1 are of different lengths, one longer than the other. The other ends of the two mobile rails 1 are flush. A safety fence 30 is installed outside the mobile rails 1 for the safety protection of the entire workstation. The safety fence 30 is composed of several steel structure fences assembled together, thus enclosing the two mobile rails 1. At least one set of laser-guided electronic fences is installed within the safety fence 30.

[0049] Multiple welding jigs 2 are laid between two moving ground rails 1. There are nine welding jigs 2 in total, arranged in a straight line with intervals between them. A connecting plate 5 is set between two adjacent welding jigs 2. The welding jigs 2 are steel structure grid frames with sufficient strength to support the products to be welded. One or more welding jigs 2 can be used to support the products, which can be large structural components such as box girders, turntables, and booms.

[0050] The variable position device 3 is arranged between one end of the two movable ground rails 1, and is located at the end where the two movable ground rails 1 are not flush. The variable position device 3 comprises a variable position machine 31 and a fixed clamp 32 controlled by the variable position machine 31. The variable position machine 31 is an L-shaped variable position machine 31, and the fixed clamp 32 is used to clamp small products to be welded, such as the balance beam in the walking mechanism of the ship unloader. The variable position machine 31 can drive the fixed clamp 32 to rotate, adjust the position and angle of the fixed clamp 32, and thus change the posture of the product.

[0051] In this embodiment, the fixed clamp 32 comprises a clamp base plate 6, a centering module one 7 and a centering module two 8. The centering module one 7 and the centering module two 8 are arranged on the clamp base plate 6 in a spaced manner, and a support column 26 is further arranged between the centering module one 7 and the centering module two 8. The number of the support column 26 is four arranged in a rectangular shape. The four support columns 26 are used to support the product to be welded together, and then the centering module one 7 and the centering module two 8 are used to clamp the product to be welded at the same time, so as to firmly fix the product on the fixed clamp 32.

[0052] Here, the centering module one 7 and the centering module two 8 each comprise a manual bidirectional screw rod module and a clamp controlled by the manual bidirectional screw rod module. The manual bidirectional screw rod module can control the operation of the clamp. The manual bidirectional screw rod module adopts a positive and negative bidirectional trapezoidal screw rod. The threads at both ends of the screw rod are opposite in rotation direction, and the trapezoidal screw rod has a self-locking function. The two ends of the positive and negative bidirectional trapezoidal screw rod are in the form of a quadrangular prism, which facilitates the use of a wrench to rotate the positive and negative bidirectional trapezoidal screw rod.

[0053] The two ends of the positive and negative bidirectional trapezoidal screw rod are each engaged with a nut seat, and the clamp is arranged on the nut seat. The clamps at the two ends move linearly along the manual bidirectional screw rod module. The rotation of the positive and negative bidirectional trapezoidal screw rod adjusts the distance between the clamps at the two ends, and the clamps at the two ends are used to clamp the product to be welded. Specifically, the clamp on the centering module one 7 is a circular table cylinder 24, which can match the circular hole of the balance beam and clamp the circular hole of the balance beam. The clamp on the centering module two 8 is a pressing plate 25 in the form of an inverted “L” plate body. A pressing bolt 27 is threadedly connected to the upper side of the pressing plate 25. The pressing plate 25 can clamp the outer edge of the balance beam, and the pressing bolt 27 is used to press and fix the product, so as to prevent the balance beam from falling off.

[0054] The two movable ground rails 1 are respectively provided with a welding device 4, so that the entire workstation has two welding devices 4. The two welding devices 4 are arranged opposite to each other, and can form a door-shaped frame after being aligned. The welding device 4 is used to weld the product to be welded on the variable position device 3 and the welding jig 2. The variable position device 3 can be matched with one welding device 4 for welding, and the welding jig 2 can be matched with one or two welding devices 4 for welding.

[0055] The welding equipment 4 comprises a walking base 9, a moving column 10, a suspension beam 11 and a welding robot 12. The walking base 9 is slidably connected to the moving rail 1, so as to expand the moving range of the welding equipment 4. Here, the walking base 9 moves along the moving rail 1 through a gear and rack walking mechanism, which is a prior art and will not be described here.

[0056] The moving column 10 is vertically arranged above the walking base 9, and the suspension beam 11 is horizontally arranged above the moving column 10. The moving column 10 and the suspension beam 11 are combined in an "L" shape. The suspension beam 11 is slidably connected to at least one side of the welding robot 12. Here, the welding robot 12 is arranged on only one side of the suspension beam 11. The welding robots 12 on the two welding equipment 4 are arranged on the two sides of the suspension beam 11, respectively. That is, the welding robot 12 on one welding equipment 4 is arranged on one side of the suspension beam 11 thereof, and the welding robot 12 on the other welding equipment 4 is arranged on the other side of the suspension beam 11 thereof. The welding robots 12 are reserved with a space for movement between the suspension beams 11 of the two welding equipment 4, so as to avoid interference.

[0057] The welding robot 12 is slidably arranged on the suspension beam 11 along the X-axis and Y-axis directions, so that the welding robot 12 can slide horizontally and vertically. The welding robot 12 comprises a robot body 121, a control cabinet 122, a welding power supply 123, a welding wire barrel 124 and a wire feeder 125, and the robot body 121 is a six-axis robot. The robot body 121 is slidably arranged on the suspension beam 11, and a dust removal welding torch 29 is arranged on the robot body 121.

[0058] Among the welding robot 12, only the robot body 121 can move bidirectionally, and the other components can only slide along the moving rail 1. In order to bear the other components of the welding robot 12, a column tray 13 is arranged on the moving column 10, and the column tray 13 is arranged around the moving column 10. The control cabinet 122, the welding power supply 123 and the welding wire barrel 124 are arranged on the column tray 13, and the wire feeder 125 is arranged on the moving column 10. A welding fume dust collector 28 is also arranged on the column tray 13. The welding fume dust collector 28 is in communication with the dust removal welding torch 29 through a dust removal hose. The welding fume dust collector 28 is used to suck the welding fume and waste gas generated during the welding of the dust removal welding torch 29 into the equipment through the fan suction force, and then discharge the purified gas. The entire welding robot 12 can move along the moving rail 1, and serve the variable position equipment 3 and the welding bed 2.

[0059] In order to realize the bidirectional movement of the robot body 121, a transverse seat 14 is horizontally slidably connected on the suspension beam 11, and the transverse seat 14 can move horizontally along the suspension beam 11 through a gear and rack walking mechanism. The transverse seat 14 is vertically provided with a lifting lead screw module 15, and the lifting lead screw module 15 moves together with the transverse seat 14. The lifting lead screw module 15 is slidably connected with a lifting column 16, and the lifting lead screw module 15 controls the lifting column 16 to move up and down. The robot body 121 is arranged below the lifting column 16, so that the robot body 121 can move horizontally and vertically.

[0060] The two welding devices 4 can independently operate along the respective movable rails 1, and of course when facing large structural parts, the two welding devices 4 can be combined to achieve the effect of cooperative work. Specifically, after the two welding devices 4 are aligned, the suspension beams 11 and the movable columns 10 are arranged in a door shape; after the two welding devices 4 are aligned, the connecting seats 17 are detachably connected between the suspension beams 11. Here, the connecting seats 17 are bolted to the flanges of the suspension beams 11 at both ends.

[0061] The suspension beams 11 of the two welding devices 4 are connected together through the connecting seats 17 to form a longer walking channel. In this way, the welding robot 12 slides along the X-axis on one suspension beam 11, moves to the other suspension beam 11 beyond the connecting seat 17, and then the welding robot 12 can walk between the two suspension beams 11, has a longer stroke, and can carry out a larger range of welding operations.

[0062] Here, the gear and rack walking mechanism for driving the transverse movement of the robot body 121 is described. The gear and rack walking mechanism includes a driving motor 19 with a gear 18 on the output shaft, a rack 20, a sliding rail 21, and a sliding block 22. The driving motor 19 is arranged on the front face of the transverse seat 14, and the output shaft of the driving motor 19 penetrates through the transverse seat 14 and extends out of the back face of the transverse seat 14 to be connected with the gear 18. Meanwhile, a plurality of sliding blocks 22 are arranged on the back face of the transverse seat 14.

[0063] Sliding rails 21 are arranged on both sides of the suspension beam 11 and the connecting seat 17, and the number of sliding rails 21 on each side is two arranged in an upper and lower interval. The sliding block 22 moves along the sliding rail 21, and then the transverse seat 14 can move along the suspension beam 11 through the cooperation of the sliding block 22 and the sliding rail 21. Meanwhile, racks 20 are arranged on both sides of the suspension beam 11 and the connecting seat 17, and the racks 20 are arranged between the two sliding rails 21 arranged in parallel. The gear 18 on the driving motor 19 is engaged with the rack 20.

[0064] In this way, after the driving motor 19 is started, the transverse seat 14 can be driven to move on the suspension beams 11 through the meshing of the gear 18 and the rack 20 and the cooperation of the slide rails 21, and since the suspension beams 11 and the connecting seats 17 are both provided with the racks 20 and the slide rails 21, the transverse seat 14 can reciprocate between the two suspension beams 11.

[0065] The principle of the present application is that the welding robot 12 is flexibly arranged according to the type of the product to be welded, for example, when small-sized products are processed, the products can be placed on the positioner 3 or on the welding jig 2 for welding. When placed on the positioner 3, a welding device 4 can be matched to work; when placed on the welding jig 2, multiple small-sized products can be placed, and two welding devices 4 can be matched to simultaneously weld. When large-sized products are processed, the products are hoisted to the welding jig 2, and two welding devices 4 can be simultaneously used for welding, or the suspension beams 11 of the two welding devices 4 are connected by the connecting seats 17, so that the welding robot 12 walks between the two suspension beams 11, better serving the welding of large-sized products, and having the characteristics of wide coverage and large activity radius.

[0066] The entire welding workstation is controlled by an industrial computer, and the industrial computer is connected with a PLC control cabinet 122, and can send control instructions to the PLC control cabinet 122. The PLC control cabinet 122 is connected with the positioner 3 and the welding device 4, and can control the movement of the positioner 3 and the movement of the welding device 4.

[0067] In order to optimize the product structure and realize smooth operation of the parts, the workstation further comprises a lubricating mechanism for lubricating the walking base 9 and the X-axis sliding of the welding robot 12, and the lubricating mechanism is arranged at two places, one on the walking base 9 and the other on the transverse seat 14.

[0068] The lubricating mechanism comprises an electric lubricating oil pump 231, a valve block 232, an oil pipe 233, a bracket 234 and a lubricating gear 235. The electric lubricating oil pump 231 can store and pump lubricating oil, and the electric lubricating pump is communicated with the valve block 232 through the oil pipe 233, and the valve block 232 plays a distribution role. The valve block 232 is communicated with multiple oil pipes 233, and each oil pipe 233 is communicated with a sliding block 22, so that lubricating oil can be distributed to each sliding block 22.

[0069] The support 234 is used to fix the lubricating gear 235 on a certain carrier, for example, the support 234 is installed on the walking base 9, and the lubricating gear 235 can be fixed on the walking base 9. The support 234 is connected with the lubricating gear 235 through a rotary joint, that is, the support 234 is provided with a rotary joint at one end, and the lubricating gear 235 is arranged on the rotary joint and can rotate. The lubricating gear 235 is engaged with the rack 20, and the valve block 232 is further communicated with the lubricating gear 235 through the oil pipe 233 and the rotary joint, so that the lubricating oil can be supplied to the lubricating gear 235 through the oil pipe 233 and the rotary joint.

[0070] The purpose of the lubricating gear 235 is to lubricate the rack 20, so that the gear 18 and the rack 20 on the motor 19 can be lubricated. The central hole of the lubricating gear 235 is a blind hole, and the lower end of the rotary joint is inserted into the central hole of the lubricating gear 235 and fixed with the rotary joint. Three oil outlet holes 236 are uniformly arranged on the circumferential side of the lubricating gear 235, the oil outlet holes 236 are arranged radially along the lubricating gear 235, the oil outlet holes 236 are communicated with the central hole of the lubricating gear 235 inwardly and extend to the edge of the lubricating gear 235 outwardly. The lubricating oil delivered by the rotary joint flows out of the lubricating gear 235 through the central hole and the oil outlet holes 236, so as to lubricate the rack 20.

[0071] The above-mentioned embodiments are only the preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not limited to the scope of the present application.
