Detailed Implementation

[0020] The specific embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this application.

[0021] The terminology of the welding system for welding track frames according to this application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a specific embodiment of this application provides a welding system for welding a track frame 500, including an inner weld welding device 200, a drive wheel welding device 100, and an outer weld welding device 300. The inner weld welding device 200 is used to weld the inner weld of the box girder body 520; the drive wheel welding device 100 is used to weld the weld of the drive wheel 510 and includes a first drive wheel clamp 130, on which a clamping part with a curved structure for clamping the drive wheel 510 is formed; the outer weld welding device 300 is used to weld the outer weld of the box girder body 520 and the weld between the box girder body 520 and the drive wheel 510, and the outer weld device includes a second drive wheel clamp 310 for clamping the drive wheel 510.

[0023] The track frame 500 is welded from the box girder body 520 and the drive wheel 510. Both the box girder body 520 and the drive wheel 510 are welded from multiple structural components, forming welds between adjacent components. Even with automated welding equipment, different welding postures are required when welding different types of welds, and different movement directions need to be set for different weld directions. Adjusting the welding posture and movement direction takes a lot of time, resulting in a decrease in welding efficiency. In this application, all welds in the track frame 500 welding process are divided into drive wheel welds, inner welds, and outer welds, and drive wheel welding device 100, inner weld welding device 200, and outer weld welding device 300 are respectively set up to perform welding operations accordingly, so as to reduce the number of welding posture and movement direction adjustments for each welding device, thereby improving the welding efficiency of the track frame 500.

[0024] In this application, a first drive wheel fixture 130 is provided for the structural features of the drive wheel 510 to assist in the welding of the drive wheel weld, so as to ensure the welding stability of the drive wheel weld process and thereby improve the welding quality of the drive wheel weld.

[0025] Furthermore, a second drive wheel fixture 310 is provided to assist in the welding of the outer weld seam, taking into account the structural features of the drive wheel 510, so as to ensure the stability of the welding process of the outer weld seam and thus improve the welding quality of the outer weld seam.

[0026] In a specific embodiment of this application, the welding of the drive wheel weld is performed by the drive wheel welding device 100 to complete the manufacturing of the drive wheel 510.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the drive wheel welding device 100 includes a double-rotor L-shaped positioner 110 and a drive wheel welding robot 120. The double-rotor L-shaped positioner 110 includes a rotary platform for mounting the first drive wheel fixture 130. The drive wheel welding robot 120 is capable of welding the drive wheel 510 according to the weld seam orientation. The coordinated operation of the double-rotor L-shaped positioner 110 and the drive wheel welding robot 120 achieves automated welding of the drive wheel weld seam, replacing manual welding and thus improving welding efficiency and quality.

[0028] Specifically, the double-rotary L-shaped positioner 110 also includes a mounting base and an L-shaped mounting component. The mounting base can move along a first direction. The vertical part of the L-shaped mounting component is pivotally connected to the mounting base to realize the rotation of the L-shaped mounting component in a plane perpendicular to the straight line extending along the first direction. The rotary platform is pivotally connected to the horizontal part of the L-shaped mounting component to realize the rotation of the rotary platform in a plane perpendicular to the straight line extending along the second direction. The rotation of the first drive wheel clamp 130 is realized by the rotation of the L-shaped mounting component in the vertical plane and the rotation of the rotary platform in the horizontal plane, thereby realizing the attitude adjustment of the drive wheel 510 so that the weld of each drive wheel is welded in the flat welding position, thereby improving welding efficiency and welding quality.

[0029] Furthermore, the double-rotating L-shaped positioner 110 and the drive wheel welding robot 120 are arranged at intervals along the first direction, and the rotating platform and the drive wheel 510 have sufficient movement space, thereby avoiding interference of the drive wheel welding robot 120 with the attitude adjustment of the drive wheel 510.

[0030] In specific embodiments of this application, the first direction, second direction, and third direction are specified for ease of description and simplification, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application. When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly. Specifically, the first direction, second direction, and third direction are three mutually perpendicular directions.

[0031] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the first drive wheel clamp 130 includes a movable clamping assembly, which includes a first clamping block 131 along a first direction, a first moving track extending in a first direction, and a first lifting track extending in a second direction. The first lifting track and the first moving track are movablely engaged with each other, and the first clamping block 131 is movably mounted on one of the first moving track and the first lifting track. The first clamping block 131, which can move in the second direction, cooperates with the rotary platform to clamp the drive wheel 510 in the second direction, and the first clamping block 131, which can move in both the second and first directions, is suitable for drive wheels 510 of different sizes.

[0032] In some embodiments, the drive wheel 510 includes a curved structure and a flat structure. The flat structure of the drive wheel 510 is in contact with the rotating platform. The first clamping block 131 will contact the curved structure of the drive wheel 510. In order for the first clamping block 131 to fully clamp the drive wheel 510, a wedge-shaped surface as a clamping part is formed on the first clamping block 131.

[0033] In some embodiments, the first drive wheel clamp 130 includes a fixed limiting component spaced apart from the movable clamping component along a first direction, the fixed limiting component including a plurality of fixing blocks 133 spaced apart along a third direction.

[0034] Specifically, the movable clamping assembly also includes a movable column 132, which is movable along a first moving track, and a first lifting track is mounted on the movable column 132. The movable column 132, which is movable along a first direction, cooperates with the fixed block 133 to clamp the drive wheel 510 along the first direction, and is suitable for drive wheels 510 of different sizes.

[0035] In some embodiments, the first drive wheel clamp 130 includes a first clamping block 134 arranged at a third-party alignment interval, the first clamping block 134 being movable in the third-party direction.

[0036] Specifically, there are at least two first clamping blocks 134, which are arranged at intervals along a third direction. The first clamping blocks 134, which can move relative to or away from each other along the third direction, are used to clamp the drive wheel 510 along the third direction and are suitable for drive wheels 510 of different sizes.

[0037] The working process of the first drive wheel clamp 130 is as follows: after the drive wheel 510 is hoisted onto the rotating platform, the first clamping block 134 automatically clamps the drive wheel 510 along the third direction. Then, the movable column 132 pushes the drive wheel 510 to abut against the fixed block 133 to complete the clamping along the first direction. Finally, the first pressing block 131 on the movable column 132 moves along the second direction to press the drive wheel 510 to complete the clamping along the second direction.

[0038] In some embodiments, the fixing block 133 has a limiting slot for engaging the flat plate structure of the drive wheel 510, so that the fixing block 133 can not only fix the drive wheel 510 in the first direction, but also limit the drive wheel 510 in the second direction.

[0039] In some embodiments, the first clamping block 134 has a limiting slot for engaging the flat structure of the drive wheel 510, so that the first clamping block 134 can not only fix the drive wheel 510 in a third direction, but also limit the drive wheel 510 in a second direction.

[0040] In a specific embodiment of this application, the welding of the inner weld is carried out by the inner weld welding device 200, which completes the internal connection of all structural components of the box girder body 520. The welding of the drive wheel weld and the welding of the inner weld can be carried out simultaneously.

[0041] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the welding system further includes an anti-deformation device 400, which includes a traveling fixture 410, an end clamping assembly 420, a middle clamping assembly 430, and an anti-deformation assembly 440. The axial length of the traveling fixture 410 is greater than the axial length of the box girder body 520. The end clamping assemblies 420 are aligned and spaced on the traveling fixture 410 and are used to clamp the two ends of the box girder body 520 respectively. The middle clamping assembly is installed on the traveling fixture 410 and is used to clamp the middle of the box girder body 520. The anti-deformation assembly 440 is installed on the traveling fixture 410 and is used to apply an anti-deformation amount to the box girder body 520.

[0042] Specifically, there are two end clamping components 420, which are arranged at intervals along the first direction on the traveling fixture 410 and can clamp the box girder body 520 placed on the traveling fixture 410 along the first direction; there can be multiple middle clamping components, which are arranged at intervals along the first direction on the traveling fixture and can clamp the box girder body 520 placed on the traveling fixture 410 along the third direction.

[0043] In reality, the structural components of the box girder body 520 include a bottom plate, a cover plate, side plates, and multiple transverse diaphragms. During the internal weld welding of the box girder body 520, the cover plate is not welded to the side plates, forming an open box structure. In this case, performing internal weld welding would cause significant deformation of the structural components. In this application, an anti-deformation component 440 is used to apply anti-deformation to the box girder body 520 placed on the accompanying tooling 410 to prevent significant deformation of the structural components during internal weld welding, thereby improving welding quality.

[0044] like Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the inner weld welding device 200 includes an inner weld head and tail positioner 210, an inner weld welding robot 220, an inner weld preheating assembly 230, and a traveling fixture 240. The traveling fixture 240 is used to clamp the ends of the traveling fixture 410. Two traveling fixtures 240 are respectively mounted on the head and tail of the inner weld head and tail positioner 210. The inner weld welding robot 220 is movably mounted on the inner weld side gantry 250 and can perform welding according to the inner weld direction of the box girder body 520. The inner weld preheating assembly 230 is mounted on the inner weld welding robot 220. By using the two traveling fixtures 240 to clamp the two ends of the box girder body 520 respectively, and then cooperating with the inner weld head and tail positioner 210 and the inner weld welding robot 220, the automatic welding of the outer weld is achieved, replacing manual welding, thereby improving welding efficiency and welding quality.

[0045] It should be noted that the structure and working principle of the inner weld head and tail positioner 210, the inner weld preheating component 230 and the inner weld welding robot 220 are well known to those skilled in the art and are not part of the core inventive points of this application, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0046] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the accompanying tooling fixture 240 includes two positioning blocks 241 arranged at intervals along a third direction. Both positioning blocks 241 have wedge-shaped surfaces to support the box girder body 520 and perform preliminary positioning of the box girder body 520. The accompanying tooling fixture 240 also includes a cylindrical top block 243 located at the middle position between the two positioning blocks 241. The cylindrical top block 243 is aligned with the center line of the box girder body 520 to achieve precise positioning of the box girder body 520. The accompanying tooling fixture 240 also includes two third clamping blocks 242 respectively installed on the two positioning blocks 241. Both third clamping blocks 242 can move along a third direction to clamp the box girder body 520 along the third direction.

[0047] After completing the inner welds of the box girder body 520, the cover plate is welded to the side plates and transverse diaphragms, completing the basic assembly of the box girder body 520. After completing the welding of the drive wheel welds and the basic assembly of the box girder body 520, the drive wheel 510 is butt-welded to the box girder body 520, completing the basic assembly of the track frame 500. The end of the track frame 500 with the drive wheel 510 is the drive wheel end, and the end of the track frame 500 without the drive wheel 510 is the box girder end. After completing the basic assembly of the track frame 500, the outer welds are welded. The welding of the outer welds is performed by the outer weld welding device 300, completing the manufacturing of the track frame 500.

[0048] like Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the external weld welding device 300 includes a second drive wheel clamp 310, a box girder clamp 320, an external weld head and tail positioner 330, an external weld welding robot 340, and an external weld preheating assembly 350. The box girder clamp 320 and the second drive wheel clamp 310 are arranged in alignment and spaced apart. The box girder clamp 320 and the second drive wheel clamp 310 are respectively installed on the head and tail of the external weld head and tail positioner 330. The external weld welding robot 340 is installed on the external weld side gantry 360 and can perform welding according to the external weld direction of the box girder body 520 and the weld direction between the box girder body 520 and the drive wheel 510. The external weld preheating assembly 350 is installed on the external weld welding robot 340 and is used for weld preheating. The box girder clamp 320 and the second drive wheel clamp 310 respectively clamp the two ends of the track frame 500. Then, the external weld seam head and tail positioner 330 and the external weld seam welding robot 340 work together to realize the automatic welding of the external weld seam, so as to replace manual welding and improve welding efficiency and welding quality.

[0049] It should be noted that the structure and working principle of the external weld head and tail positioner 330, the external weld preheating component 350 and the external weld welding robot 340 are well known to those skilled in the art and are not part of the core inventive points of this application, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0050] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the second drive wheel clamp 310 includes a second moving track, a vertical mounting base 311, a second clamping block 312, and a horizontal mounting base 313. The second moving track extends along a first direction. The vertical mounting base 311 is movably mounted on the second moving track and is provided with a second lifting track extending along a second direction. The second clamping block 312 is movably mounted on the second lifting track and can abut against the flat plate structure of the drive wheel 510. The horizontal mounting base 313 and the second clamping block 312 are aligned and spaced apart along the second direction. A second clamping block 314 is movably mounted on the horizontal mounting base 313 and aligned and spaced apart along a third direction. The second clamping block 314 can move along the third direction.

[0051] Specifically, the vertical mounting base 311 is pivotally connected to the external weld head and tail positioner 330. The external weld head and tail positioner 330 is movably mounted on the second moving track so that the vertical mounting base 311 can move along the first direction to cooperate with the box girder clamp 320 to clamp the track frame 500 along the first direction and can adapt to welding track frames 500 of different sizes. The second clamping block 312 can move along the second direction and cooperate with the transverse mounting base 313 to clamp the drive wheel end of the track frame 500 along the second direction. The number of second clamping blocks 314 is at least two. The two second clamping blocks 314 are arranged at intervals along the third direction and can move along the third direction to cooperate with each other to clamp the drive wheel end of the track frame 500 along the third direction.

[0052] In some embodiments, the second drive wheel clamp 310 further includes a longitudinal mounting seat 315 fixedly mounted on a vertical mounting seat 311. A roller mounting seat 316 is formed at the end of the longitudinal mounting seat 315 away from the vertical mounting seat 311 along a first direction. A plurality of rollers 317 extending along a third third direction are mounted on the roller mounting seat 316. A transverse mounting seat 313 is located between the roller mounting seat 316 and the vertical mounting seat 311.

[0053] Specifically, after the track frame 500 is hoisted to the second drive wheel clamp 310, the drive wheel end of the track frame 500 can approach the vertical mounting seat 311 along the first direction via the roller 317 until it abuts against the vertical mounting seat 311. The roller 317 reduces the friction between the track frame 500 and the transverse mounting seat 313 during the process of the track frame 500 approaching the vertical mounting seat 311 along the first direction.

[0054] The working process of the second drive wheel clamp 310 is as follows: After the track frame 500 is hoisted onto the transverse mounting seat 313, the transverse mounting seat 313 moves along the first direction until the drive wheel end of the track frame 500 abuts against the vertical mounting seat 311. Then, the second clamping block 314 automatically clamps the drive wheel end of the track frame 500 along the third direction. At the same time, the second pressing block 312 moves downward until it abuts against the drive wheel end of the track frame 500 to complete the clamping along the second direction.

[0055] The working process of the external weld welding device 300 is as follows: while the second drive wheel clamp 310 moves toward the drive wheel end of the track frame 500 and clamps it, the box girder clamp 320 moves toward the box girder end of the track frame 500 and clamps it to complete the clamping along the first direction. Then, the external weld welding is performed to complete the manufacturing of the track frame 500.

[0056] It should be noted that all structural components installed on the moving track can continue to move after reaching the preset position, so as to exert a force on the workpiece they are acting on.

[0057] It should also be noted that all the movable structural components mentioned above are driven by motors, and all motors are controlled by a control unit.

[0058] In some embodiments, the drive wheel welding robot 120 adopts a single-wire welding method to adapt to the characteristics of small batches and complex drive wheel welds; the inner weld welding robot 220 adopts a single-wire welding method to adapt to the characteristics of small batches and complex drive wheel welds, and there are two inner weld welding robots 220 to perform symmetrical welding of the inner welds, thereby reducing deformation; the outer weld welding robot 340 adopts a double-wire welding method to adapt to the characteristics of large batches and many straight lines of drive wheel welds, and there are two outer weld welding robots 340 to perform symmetrical welding of the outer welds, thereby reducing deformation.

[0059] It should be noted that single-wire welding and double-wire welding processes are well known to those skilled in the art and are not part of the core inventive points of this application, so they will not be elaborated here.

[0060] In this application, firstly, the open box girder body 520 is clamped onto the anti-deformation device 400 and hoisted to the inner weld welding device 200 for inner weld welding. After the inner weld welding is completed, the cover plate is welded to the open box girder body 520 and the anti-deformation device 400 is removed. Simultaneously, the drive wheel 510 is hoisted to the drive wheel welding device 100 for drive wheel weld welding. Then, the drive wheel 510 is butt-welded to the box girder body 520. Finally, the track frame 500 is hoisted to the outer weld welding device 300 for outer weld welding. The entire welding process is divided into drive wheel weld welding, inner weld welding, and outer weld welding, which are respectively performed by the drive wheel welding device 100, the inner weld welding device 200, and the outer weld welding device 300 to reduce the number of welding posture adjustments and movement direction adjustments for each welding device, thereby improving the welding efficiency of the track frame 500.
