The pipe heads extend from the holes of the orifice plates, and the holes are provided with grooves that are wide outside and narrow inside. For pressure vessels, due to the deep grooves, welding requirements are also high. Usually, four passes are required to weld the outer periphery of each pipe head, and the welding workload is very large. Traditionally, manual welding is used. For a large number of repetitive tasks, the labor intensity of manual work is high, the efficiency is low, and the quality of the welds is unstable, which is closely related to the quality of the welders. The appearance of manual welds is relatively poor.

The lower end of the positioning ejector is inserted into the center hole of the cover plate, and the inner wall of the pipe is used to provide centering for the welding equipment. When the tool is working, there are the following defects: 1. The size of the centering cover plate is fixed and cannot be adjusted. Draw pipes of different diameters require centering covers of corresponding specifications; 2. There are deviations in the inner diameters of the same specification of different batches of drawn pipes, which causes deviations in the positioning of the centering cover plate. During the welding process, the position of the welding gun needs to be manually adjusted from time to time, affecting the welding efficiency and quality. Utility Model Content
