Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of valve overlay welding technology, specifically, it relates to a valve overlay welding device. Background Technology
[0002] During engine operation, valves undergo high-speed reciprocating motion in a high-temperature environment. The valve disc cone surface is subjected to high-frequency reciprocating impact forces and high-speed airflow scouring under these conditions, making the working environment extremely harsh. This places extremely high demands on the wear resistance and high-temperature resistance of the valve disc cone surface. However, the high-temperature performance of the valve base material cannot meet the actual needs of engine use. Welding, as an economical and efficient technique for material surface modification, has been widely used in the manufacturing and repair of parts in various industrial fields. However, existing welding methods suffer from complex procedures and numerous parameter settings, leading to high requirements for operators and equipment, which in turn results in increased defect rates and reduced production efficiency.
[0003] However, in existing valve welding processes, the preheating and welding processes are generally completed in the same processing chamber. Specifically, after the valve is delivered to the processing chamber, the preheating process is performed before the welding process, resulting in a long welding operation time. Furthermore, the heat generated during the welding process cannot be effectively utilized, especially since the metal powder needs to be preheated during the powder feeding process, which requires additional heat consumption and causes serious energy waste. In addition, this process mode cannot achieve continuous production of valve welding. Summary of the Invention

The number of rod plasma welding torches 51 is one, two or three, and the distribution is set according to the actual length of the valve rod to ensure sufficient and uniform welding. The sealing cone plasma welding torch 52 and the rod plasma welding torch 51 are mainly composed of the torch body, tungsten electrode, nozzle and plasma gas channel. All welding torches are connected to an external plasma welding power source through cables and connected to the control unit of the device through control lines to realize real-time adjustment of welding current and arc voltage. The plasma welding device is a relatively mature technology and will not be described in detail here.
[0038] Please see Figures 1-7 To facilitate simultaneous clamping and positioning of two sets of valves, and to allow them to enter the preheating and welding stations synchronously, enabling synchronized rotation, preheating before welding, and welding after preheating, ensuring welding quality and shortening welding time, a rotating clamping mechanism is installed between two adjacent clamping plates 24. This rotating clamping mechanism is used to clamp and position the valves. A drive mechanism is also installed in the preheating chamber 12 and the welding chamber 13. When the two valves enter their preset positions in the preheating chamber 12 and the welding chamber 13 respectively, the drive mechanism engages with the corresponding rotating clamping mechanism to drive the rotating clamping mechanism to rotate the valves synchronously. The rotating clamping mechanism includes components installed between two adjacent clamping plates 24. 4. Rotating rods 42 are located close to each other on the sidewalls. Rotating rods 42 are rotatably connected to clamping plates 24 via bearings. Mounting plates 41 are provided at the ends of the rotating rods 42. Clamping assemblies are provided on the sidewalls of the two mounting plates 41 that are close to each other. The clamping assemblies include a first electric push rod 81 fixed to the sidewall of one of the mounting plates 41, with a first clamping plate 83 fixed to its output end; a second electric push rod 82 is fixed to the sidewall of the other mounting plate 41, with a second clamping plate 84 fixed to its output end; elastic protective gaskets 85 are fixed to the clamping surfaces of both the first clamping plate 83 and the second clamping plate 84. The first clamping plate 83 is adapted to the sealing cone end of the valve and is used for its clamping and positioning. The two clamping plates 84 are adapted to the valve stem end face and used for clamping and positioning. The inner diameter of the first clamping plate 83 is larger than that of the second clamping plate 84, which facilitates clamping and positioning of the sealing cone end and the stem end face respectively. The elastic protective gasket 85, made of high-temperature resistant silicone with a thickness of 3-5mm, is attached to the arc-shaped inner wall of the first clamping plate 83 and the left side wall of the second clamping plate 84 with high-temperature resistant adhesive to prevent damage to the valve surface during clamping. The drive mechanism includes a rotating shaft 32 rotatably supported in the preheating chamber 12 and the welding chamber 13. A main gear 33 is fixedly fixed on the rotating shaft 32 at equal intervals along its axial direction. A driven gear 36 is fixed on the outer wall of the mounting plate 41 connected to the first electric push rod 81. The axis of the shaft 32 coincides with the axis of the rotating rod 42, and the gear 36 meshes with the main gear 33. One end of the rotating shaft 32 near the preheating chamber 12 passes through the side wall of the processing chamber 11 and extends to the outside, and is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 31. A rotating ring 34 is rotatably provided on the outside of the rotating shaft 32. A support rod 35 is provided at the bottom of the rotating ring 34.

It is made of copper alloy and is sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 32 through a sliding bearing. The top end of the support rod 35 is welded to the rotating ring 34, and the bottom end is welded to the bottom of the processing chamber 11. It is used to assist in supporting the rotating shaft 32 and prevent the rotating shaft 32 from sagging due to its own weight, which would cause gear meshing deviation.
[0039] Please see Figures 1-7To preheat the metal powder before powder feeding and welding, preventing it from easily agglomerating and clogging the channel, and to avoid porosity caused by low-temperature powder entering the molten pool, the residual heat from the welding process can be utilized for preheating the preheating chamber 12, which can preheat the valves and powder feeding channel 72, shortening processing time, ensuring welding quality, and saving energy. A powder feeding component is provided on one side of the welding assembly, and a residual heat recovery component is installed at the bottom of the welding chamber 13. The heat output end of the residual heat recovery component extends into the preheating chamber 12 to provide a preheating heat source to the preheating chamber 12. The powder feeding component includes a fixing frame 73 fixed on one side of the rod plasma welding gun 51 and the sealing cone plasma welding gun 52, and a powder feeding nozzle 7 is fixed on the fixing frame 73. 1. The powder feeding nozzle 71 is made of stainless steel and is fixed to the mounting bracket 73 by pipe clamps. The distance between the nozzle outlet and the welding torch nozzle is 10-15mm, and the outlet faces the welding area. When welding the conical surface, the nozzle is at an angle of 15°-30° to the generatrix of the conical surface; when welding the end face, the nozzle is at an angle of 45°-60° to the end face. The powder feeding nozzle 71 is connected to a powder feeding channel 72. The inner layer of the powder feeding channel 72 can be a high-temperature ceramic fiber tube, and the outer layer is equipped with a protective sleeve. It is made of stainless steel corrugated pipe, which is wear-resistant, heat-resistant, and can be bent at will. It is a relatively mature technology and will not be described in detail here. The powder feeding channel 72 passes through the side walls of the welding chamber 13 and the preheating chamber 12 and extends to the outside of the processing chamber 11. Argon gas is used as the carrier gas to transport metal powder in the powder feeding channel 72. The powder feeding channel 72 is connected to a powder feeder at one end, which can be a screw-type automatic powder feeder equipped with a hopper for storing alloy powder and a frequency converter motor 31 to control the screw speed. The powder feeder is connected to an argon cylinder via an argon pipeline and is equipped with a pressure reducing valve and a flow meter. Argon gas is used as a carrier gas to push the powder from the powder feeder to the powder feeding channel 72, and finally into the molten pool through the powder feeding nozzle 71. This is a relatively mature technology and will not be described in detail here. The waste heat recovery component includes an exhaust pipe 61 fixed at the bottom of the welding chamber 13. The bottom end of the exhaust pipe 61 is connected to a filter box 62. The end of the filter box 62 away from the exhaust pipe 61 is connected to a blower 63. The output end of the blower 63 is connected to a connecting pipe 64. Preheating outlet pipes 65 are equidistantly connected along the length of the connecting pipe 64. The top of the preheating outlet pipe 65 extends into the internal space of the preheating chamber 12. The filter box 62 is a rectangular box made of 304 stainless steel and has a metal filter screen inside. The side wall of the box has a removable cover for easy replacement of the filter material. The blower 63 can be a centrifugal fan or other blower equipment, which can be connected and fixed by a flange. The preheating outlet pipe 65 is a stainless steel branch pipe, one end of which is connected to the connecting pipe 64, and the other end extends vertically upward through the bottom of the preheating chamber 12 and into the interior of the preheating chamber 12. The pipe opening faces the valve clamping area and is equipped with a wind shield to prevent the airflow from blowing directly on the valve. The preheating chamber 12 is equipped with a temperature sensor connected to the control unit. When the temperature of the preheating chamber 12 is lower than the preset value, such as 200-300℃, the control unit increases the speed of the blower 63.When the temperature exceeds the preset value, the rotation speed is reduced or the heat dissipation valve on the side wall of the preheating chamber 12 is opened to stabilize the preheating temperature. A recovery pipe 14 is connected to the top of the preheating chamber 12. The recovery pipe 14 is used to recover the protective argon gas inside the preheating chamber 12 and is connected to an external argon gas recovery machine. The recovery machine compresses the argon gas inside the preheating chamber 12 using a compressor, stores it in a gas storage tank, and after drying and filtration, returns it to the welding torch shielding gas channel, thus achieving argon gas recycling.
[0040] Working principle: The operator places the valve to be welded into the rotating clamping mechanism between adjacent clamping plates 24 through the feeding port of the preheating chamber 12. The first electric push rod 81 is activated, causing the first clamping plate 83 to fit against the valve sealing cone surface. The second electric push rod 82 is activated, causing the second clamping plate 84 to press against the valve stem end face. The elastic protective gasket 85 prevents damage to the valve surface. The guide rail device 21, in conjunction with the guide rail slider 23, drives the clamping plate 24 to move the valve into the preheating chamber 12. The waste heat recovery component is activated, and the high-temperature waste heat of the welding chamber 13 enters the filter box 62 through the air outlet pipe 61. After filtration, it is pushed by the blower device 63 to the preheating outlet pipe 65, delivering hot air to the preheating chamber 12. The drive mechanism is activated, and the rotating shaft 32 drives the main gear 33 to rotate. The main gear 33 meshes with the driven gear 36 of the rotating clamping mechanism to drive the valve to rotate at a constant speed. At the same time, the section of the powder feeding channel 72 placed in the preheating chamber 12 is preheated synchronously to prevent powder agglomeration. Preheating is completed. Afterwards, the moving component drives the card plate 24 to transfer the preheated valve to the preset station in the welding chamber 13. At the same time, the next valve to be welded enters the preheating chamber 12 to start preheating, and the two stations work synchronously. The drive mechanism of the welding chamber 13 is started, and the rotating shaft 32 drives the main gear 33 to rotate. The main gear 33 meshes with the driven gear 36 of the rotating clamping mechanism, driving the valve to rotate at a constant speed. The plasma welding power supply and powder feeding component are started: the tungsten electrode of the sealing cone plasma welding gun 52 generates a plasma arc to melt the surface layer of the valve sealing cone. The powder feeder is started, and argon gas is used as the carrier gas to send cobalt-based alloy powder into the molten pool through the preheated powder feeding channel 72 and the powder feeding nozzle 71. The servo rotation device 55 drives the sealing cone plasma welding gun 52 to rotate slowly, and the servo angle adjustment device 57 adjusts the angle of the sealing cone plasma welding gun 52 in real time. At the same time, the rod plasma welding gun 51 can simultaneously weld the rod and the sealing cone to ensure that the thickness of the weld layer is uniform.
