Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of watch strap processing and welding, and in particular to a watch strap laser welding device. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in the forming and assembly process of metal watch straps, many key steps rely heavily on welding technology to achieve precise and reliable connections. Specifically, the splicing and combination between links, the sealing and connection of the ends of the watch strap, and the final fixing and locking of various connectors all require precise and efficient welding technology. Welding technology not only ensures a firm connection and tight fit between various components, but also provides crucial technical support for the overall structural stability, long-term durability, and appearance integrity of the watch strap. Therefore, a laser welding device for watch straps is particularly needed.
[0003] However, existing watch strap laser welding equipment mostly adopts a single welding head integrated fixed welding structure during use, and is only equipped with a single welding operation module. It can only match fixed welding processes and cannot flexibly switch welding operation modes according to the actual production material and structural pattern of the watch strap. The process adaptability is poor. When dealing with different materials such as stainless steel, high-hardness alloys, and lightweight composite alloys, it is not possible to match the differentiated process parameters for spot welding and continuous running welding. Defects such as incomplete welding, desoldering, and weld penetration are very likely to occur, resulting in a low yield rate of finished products. At the same time, the traditional integrated welding head has weak controllability of concentrated heat source. When changing to produce different styles and specifications of watch straps, the whole machine needs to be debugged and modified, resulting in high technical modification costs, large downtime losses, and high time losses in subsequent shaping and grinding processes. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a watch strap laser welding equipment to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Existing watch strap laser welding equipment often uses a single welding head integrated fixed welding structure, equipped with only a single welding operation module. It can only match fixed welding processes and cannot flexibly switch welding operation modes according to the actual production material and structural pattern of the watch strap. This results in poor process adaptability. When dealing with watch straps made of different materials such as stainless steel, high-hardness alloys, and lightweight composite alloys, it cannot specifically match the differentiated process parameters for spot welding and continuous welding, easily leading to defects such as incomplete welding, weld failure, and burn-through. The finished product yield is low. Furthermore, the traditional integrated welding head has weak controllability of the concentrated heat source.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. This watchband laser welding equipment adopts a dual-station, split, independent welding structure, enabling independent switching between two processes without interference. This greatly improves the equipment's process adaptability and versatility. The entire system features independently designed running laser welding unit and spot laser welding unit, each equipped with dedicated running and spot welding components. The two welding systems have independent drive, control, and optical path execution structures, allowing for independent start / stop, independent parameter adjustment, and independent trajectory operation. This avoids the problems of process interference, parameter coupling, and inability to differentiate adjustments inherent in traditional integrated single-welding-head equipment. In the actual watch strap processing and production process, based on the material characteristics of the watch strap to be processed, continuous running welding or spot welding processes can be precisely matched for different base materials such as stainless steel watch straps, alloy watch straps, and composite metal watch straps. For long strip splicing seams and edge sealing positions of watch straps, continuous running welding is used to form the weld, ensuring the continuity and sealing of the weld. For watch strap link connection points and local reinforcement points, spot welding is used to reinforce them, ensuring connection strength and point accuracy. It truly achieves multi-purpose use and fully covers various watch strap welding processing conditions, greatly improving the applicability and reuse rate of the equipment. 2. This watch strap laser welding equipment, through the setting of a moving component, achieves stable and precise displacement of the watch strap workpiece, effectively improving welding alignment accuracy and finished product consistency. It can realize precise feeding, uniform speed displacement and position fine adjustment of the watch strap workpiece, effectively solving the problems of large alignment deviation, uneven feeding and unstable positioning in traditional watch strap welding. At the same time, the equipment is set with a dual-station placement structure, which can simultaneously place the watch strap body in the placement plate of the moving component and the placement frame of the worktable, realizing alternating feeding and continuous operation, effectively shortening the waiting time for loading and unloading, improving the continuous production capacity of the production line, and adapting to the needs of large-scale batch production. Moreover, the moving seat, slide rail and drive box structure have high compatibility, smooth sliding without jamming, further ensuring that the welding position of each batch of watch straps is uniform and the forming consistency is good. 3. This watch strap laser welding equipment, through the setting of running welding and spot welding components, adopts a detachable modular assembly structure, which makes equipment maintenance convenient, parts replacement costs low, and equipment failure rate low. The running welding head is assembled by a tenon-groove joint and a through-hole rod for fixation. The tenon-groove positioning accuracy is high and the joint fit is tight. With the double locking structure of the rod and the fixing block, it can effectively prevent the welding head from loosening or shifting during long-term operation, ensuring long-term stable welding accuracy. The spot welding head adopts a threaded column and threaded hole thread matching locking method, which is simple to disassemble and assemble, and precise in positioning. It is convenient for operators to quickly disassemble, replace, inspect and maintain the equipment. Compared with the traditional one-piece non-detachable welding head structure, this invention can replace individual worn or damaged welding heads individually without disassembling the entire welding mechanism, which significantly reduces equipment operation and maintenance costs and downtime for maintenance, and ensures stable mass production operation of the equipment for a long time.

[0023] The movable seat 1006 is slidably connected to the slide rail 1005, and the movable seat 1006 is slidably connected to the drive housing 1002. The movable hole 1007 is adapted to the drive housing 1002. By setting the movable seat 1006 and the slide rail 1005, the movable seat 1006 has high linear displacement accuracy, low sliding resistance, smooth operation without jamming or left and right deviation throughout the entire process. This effectively ensures the uniform and stable feeding of the watch strap workpiece, further improves the consistency of the welding trajectory and the uniformity of the finished product appearance, and ensures high consistency and high precision of batch welding production from the perspective of the conveying structure.
[0024] The welding head 709 is compatible with the tenon 707. The diameter of the connecting hole 708 is the same as that of the through hole 710. Two identical sets of connecting holes 708, through holes 710, and insertion rods 711 are provided. By configuring the welding head 709 and the tenon 707, rapid alignment and insertion of the tenon and mortise are achieved, resulting in high alignment accuracy and tight fit. This effectively limits the horizontal displacement of the welding head 709, forming a symmetrical locking layout on both sides. The compatible structure of the welding head 709 and the tenon 707 enables rapid positioning and installation of the welding head 709. Combined with the double-sided locking structure, this significantly improves the installation stability of the welding head 709, providing strong resistance to equipment vibration interference. It ensures no displacement or loosening during long-term operation, effectively guaranteeing the straightness, flatness, and uniformity of the weld seam during continuous welding operations.
[0025] The insertion rod 711 is compatible with both the connecting hole 708 and the through hole 710. The insertion rod 711 passes through the connecting seat 706 and the welding head 709 and extends to the outside of the connecting seat 706. The fixing block 712 is compatible with the insertion rod 711. By setting the insertion rod 711 with the connecting hole 708 and the through hole 710, the welding head 709 and the connecting seat 706 form an integral rigid connection, eliminating gap wobbling and slight displacement. The structure has extremely strong stability and can effectively cope with long-term, high-frequency, and continuous welding conditions, ensuring that the welding accuracy of the equipment remains constant over a long period of time and reducing the defect rate in mass production.
[0026] The watch strap body 11 is located on the top of the placement plate 1008, and another set of watch strap bodies 11 is located on the top of the workbench 12. By setting the watch strap bodies 11, dynamic continuous running welding and static fixed spot welding can be carried out in parallel. The workstation switching is flexible and loading and unloading do not require machine downtime, which effectively improves the equipment utilization rate and unit time production capacity. It can adapt to the diverse welding needs of different styles and specifications of watch straps, and greatly improve the equipment's versatility and mass production adaptability.
[0027] The spot welding head 1908 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 1904 via a threaded post 1909. The threaded post 1909 is adapted to the threaded hole 1905, and the threaded post 1909 and the connecting seat 1904 are connected by threads. By setting the threaded post 1909 and the connecting seat 1904, the spot welding head 1908 is easy to assemble and disassemble, accurately positioned, firmly locked, and has high coaxiality. It can effectively ensure the consistency of the spot position accuracy for each pulse spot welding, with no deviation in the weld position and uniform formation. At the same time, it is easy to clean and remove impurities, replace worn parts, and carry out regular inspection and maintenance, which greatly reduces the difficulty of equipment operation and maintenance and production costs.
[0028] The connecting rod 1912 and the display screen 1914 do not contact each other, while the tension ring tube 1916 is fixedly connected to the display screen 1914. By setting the tension ring tube 1916 and the display screen 1914, the display screen 1914 can be flexibly supported and its angle limited, allowing the display screen angle to be freely adjusted and then stably fixed without loosening or sagging. This facilitates operators to observe equipment parameters, operating status, and welding screens from multiple angles, providing a good human-machine interaction experience and high ease of operation. It further enhances the overall intelligence and operability of the equipment and is suitable for long-term continuous production operations.
[0029] Working Principle: First, the operator conducts a comprehensive inspection and assembly of all components of the device. After installation, the entire device undergoes comprehensive debugging. After the equipment is powered on, the control box 3 on top of the running laser welding machine 2 and the operation panel 16 and display screen 1914 on top of the spot welding laser welding machine 14 complete the power-on self-test. The system detects the optical path status, laser output power, and servo operating parameters of the running laser welding machine 6 and the spot welding machine 18, respectively. At the same time, it detects the transmission accuracy of the motor 1003, transmission screw 1004, and slide rail 1005 of the moving component 10, confirming that there is no jamming or fault in each structure and that the parameters are zeroed. The operator distinguishes different base materials such as stainless steel and alloy materials according to the material of the watch strap body 11 to be processed. The system is designed to be customized by pre-setting and retrieving corresponding laser running welding or laser spot welding process parameters. This allows for parameter settings for two independent welding systems, ensuring the equipment adapts to the welding requirements of the current watchband material. This guarantees controllable heat-affected zone and welding precision matching the substrate characteristics. Simultaneously, the angle of the display screen 1914 can be adjusted via the rotating shaft 1913, and fixed in place with the stretching ring tube 1916. This facilitates real-time monitoring of equipment operating parameters and processing status by the operator. The operator places the watchband body 11 to be processed in two separate workstations: one on the placement plate 1008 at the top of the moving component 10 for dynamic feed continuous running welding, and the other inside the placement frame 13 at the top of the worktable 12. For static spot welding or pre-work preparation, multiple sets of casters 4 evenly distributed at the bottom of the equipment can be pre-adjusted to ensure stable placement of the entire machine. This effectively avoids the impact of equipment tilting and vibration on high-precision welding, providing a stable working condition for subsequent precision welding operations. After the workpiece is placed, the moving component 10 starts its operating program, driving the motor 1003 on the outside of the drive housing 1002. The output of the motor 1003 drives the transmission screw 1004 to rotate. Utilizing the screw thread transmission structure, the threaded moving seat 1006 is driven to slide linearly along the slide rail 1005 with high precision. The moving seat 1006 is matched with the drive housing 1002 through the moving hole 1007, ensuring smooth, non-deviation-free, and stable sliding throughout the entire process. The system can precisely achieve uniform feed, micro-displacement, and fine-tuning of position according to the welding trajectory requirements of the watch strap. This drives the watch strap body 11 on top of the placement plate 1008 to precisely move to the welding area directly below the running welding component 7, completing precise alignment. For continuous welding conditions such as long strip splicing seams and edge sealing welds of the watch strap, the running welding laser welding machine 2 is activated. The running welding machine 6 drives the running welding component 7 to carry out continuous laser running welding operations. During the operation, the connecting plate 701 and the connecting column 702 stably support the running welding box 703, ensuring the welding operation height is stable. The flexible telescopic tube 704, together with the air nozzle 705, blows away fumes, molten spatter particles, and oxide impurities from the welding area in real time, effectively avoiding defects such as weld porosity, slag inclusions, and blackening.Meanwhile, the lighting lamp 714 at the end of the connecting pipe 713 continuously illuminates the weld area, ensuring a clear welding trajectory and precise alignment for long-trajectory welding. The running welding head 709 uses a tenon and groove 707 for positioning, and is locked in place by two sets of connecting holes 708, through holes 710, and insertion rods 711. It is further reinforced by a fixing block 712, ensuring a firm, vibration-resistant, and non-displacement assembly. This guarantees stable precision during long-term continuous running welding. Relying on the equipment's precise parameter matching capabilities, the laser power and welding speed are adaptively adjusted for different materials such as stainless steel and alloy watch straps, achieving low heat-affected zone welding. This effectively reduces watch strap welding deformation and ensures a tight, flat, and uniform weld. It also provides targeted reinforcement for watch strap link connection points, local reinforcement points, and joint reinforcement. In welding operation, the spot welding laser welding machine body 14 is started independently, and the running welding mechanism does not need to participate in the operation. The two mechanisms do not interfere with each other and operate independently. The drive box 15 controls the spot welding machine 18 to work. The spot welding assembly 19, which is stably supported by the support plate 17, performs pulsed precision spot welding. The spot welding head 1908 is threaded and fixed by the top threaded post 1909 and the threaded hole 1905 at the bottom of the connecting seat 1904. It has high coaxiality, accurate positioning, and convenient disassembly and assembly. During the welding process, the flexible telescopic tube 1910 and the air nozzle 1911 accurately blow air to cool down, remove impurities and dust from the tiny spot welding points, effectively reducing the heat-affected zone of spot welding and avoiding local oxidation and weld deformation. The lighting lamp 1907 illuminates the tiny weld points. Precise illumination ensures accurate alignment for spot welding. Based on the differences in hardness and thickness of stainless steel and alloy watch straps, the laser independently adjusts the spot welding pulse frequency, laser energy, and light emission duration to guarantee smooth, full, and strong welds without incomplete welds, spalls, or localized deformation. This meets the spot reinforcement welding needs of watch straps made of different materials. While the moving component 10 drives the dynamic watch strap to complete the running welding operation, the watch strap workpieces inside the placement frame 13 on the top of the worktable 12 can simultaneously complete spot welding or be ready for pre-processing. This allows for staggered parallel operation of the two processes, alternating material loading, and uninterrupted continuous production. After welding a single workpiece, the moving component 10 automatically resets, allowing operators to quickly unload finished products and load new workpieces without requiring equipment downtime. This significantly shortens the material loading and unloading gap, making it suitable for large-scale, assembly-line mass production of various watch strap styles. It significantly improves overall production efficiency. During long-term mass production, if wear, dirt accumulation, or precision degradation occurs in the welding head 709, it can be individually disassembled and maintained. For running welds, the welding head 709 can be quickly disassembled and replaced by pulling out the insert 711 and removing the fixing block 712. For spot welds, the threaded post 1908 can be directly screwed on to complete disassembly, cleaning, and replacement without disassembling the entire machine. Maintenance is convenient, downtime is extremely short, and after maintenance, recalibration is performed before the equipment can enter the next round of continuous welding operations, ensuring long-term stable mass production, consistent welding precision, and uniform finished product quality.
