Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gas shielded welding guns, in particular to a nozzle for a consumable gas shielded welding gun. Background Art

[0002] The gun head of the consumable electrode gas shielded welding gun must be connected to an external nozzle. Its main function is that during welding, active or inert shielding gas is ejected from the welding gun body to form a protective cover at the nozzle mouth, so that the welding wire and the molten pool are in a protective atmosphere isolated from the air.

[0003] During welding, the diameter of the nozzle determines the flow rate of the shielding gas. The larger the nozzle diameter, the greater the flow rate of the shielding gas, which causes the shielding gas to form turbulent flow; the smaller the nozzle diameter, the smaller the flow rate of the shielding gas, which causes the shielding gas to have a small range. It can be seen that a nozzle diameter that is too large or too small will affect the weld formation and surface quality.

[0004] In the prior art, the MIG / MAG welding gun mainly relies on the shielding gas passing through the nozzle to cool the nozzle. In industrial applications, due to the high heat generated during welding and the close proximity of the nozzle to the weld pool, the nozzle is kept at a high temperature for a long time, which will lead to the following problems:

[0005] 1. During continuous welding, the cooling effect of the shielding gas is poor, and a large amount of welding spatter will accumulate at the nozzle mouth. After a certain period of welding or weld length, the spatter at the nozzle mouth must be cleaned, otherwise the inner diameter of the nozzle mouth will be reduced or blocked, thereby reducing the shielding gas flow rate, which will seriously affect the quality of the weld and cause the weld inspection to fail to meet the standards.

[0006] 2. The nozzle is in a high temperature state for a long time, and the nozzle mouth is easy to deform, which in turn affects the range of the protective gas during welding, resulting in poor weld formation.

[0007] 3. Deformed nozzles require frequent shutdowns for replacement, which not only interrupts the production rhythm, but also increases production costs, and is especially not conducive to long-term continuous welding of large components.

[0008] 4. The existing nozzle size is not suitable, and its diameter is too large, which has poor accessibility to thick workpieces, especially difficult to weld at the root of the workpiece. At this time, in order to smoothly weld, a large angle groove needs to be opened on the workpiece, which will cause unnecessary processing difficulties in production. Utility Model Content

[0038] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to implement different structures of the present invention.

Of course, they are only examples and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0039] The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] See also Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, the utility model provides a nozzle for a consumable electrode gas shielded welding gun, comprising:

[0041] The shielding nozzle 100 is detachably connected to the gun head (not shown in the figure) of the metal arc welding gun;

[0042] The water cooling jacket 200 is threadedly connected to the protection nozzle 100 and is located outside the gun head; and

[0043] The sleeve ring 300 is fixed and sealingly sleeved on the water cooling ring groove 210 opened on the outer circumferential side wall of the water cooling jacket 200;

[0044] Among them, a symmetrically arranged water inlet pipe 310 and a water outlet pipe 320 are provided on the outer circumferential side wall of the sleeve ring 300. The water inlet pipe 310 and the water outlet pipe 320 are both connected to the water cooling ring groove 210, and are used to introduce and lead out external cooling water into and out of the water cooling ring groove 210 to circulate and cool the gun head.

[0045] Specifically, the protective nozzle 100 has a tubular structure, and one end thereof is provided with a plurality of expansion joints 110 evenly distributed circumferentially along its axial direction, and an annular groove orthogonal to all the expansion joints 110 is provided on the outer circumferential side wall of the end, and an elastic open ring 120 is clamped in the annular groove; through the expansion and contraction of the expansion joint 110 and the tightening effect of the open ring 120, the protective nozzle 100 can be quickly connected to the gun head.

[0046] The other end of the protection nozzle 100 (the end facing the gun head) is provided with an external pipe thread, and the first third of the water cooling jacket 200 is provided with an internal pipe thread; the water cooling jacket 200 is connected by its internal pipe thread with the external pipe thread of the protection nozzle 100, so that the last two thirds of the water cooling jacket 200 are located outside the gun head and exceed the length of the conductive nozzle at the gun head by 5 to 10 mm. The pipe thread connection has a good sealing effect and is easy to disassemble; the water cooling jacket 200 surrounds the gun head, which can effectively control the overall length of the nozzle, which is conducive to improving the convenience of replacement, disassembly and cleaning during use.

[0047] The rear two-thirds of the water-cooling jacket 200 has the same inner diameter as the shielding nozzle 100. In this way, the cross-section of the internal passages of the shielding nozzle 100 and the water-cooling jacket 200 is guaranteed to remain unchanged, so that the flow path of the shielding gas ejected from the welding gun body is stable and turbulence is avoided, thereby improving the stability of the shielding gas flow rate.

[0048] The outer circumferential surface of the rear two-thirds of the water-cooling jacket 200 is arranged in a stepped manner to form the above-mentioned water-cooling annular groove 210. The sleeve ring 300 is sealed and arranged on the periphery of the water-cooling annular groove 210 by welding to form an annular cavity for circulating cooling water. The water outlet of the water inlet pipe 310 and the water inlet of the water outlet pipe 320 are both arranged on the inner circumferential side wall of the sleeve ring 300, and are eccentrically directed to the outer arc surface of the water-cooling annular groove 210 on different sides of the annular cavity. When working, the cooling water of the external water tank is pumped into the water inlet pipe 310 through the water pump, and sprayed to the outer arc surface of the water-cooling annular groove 210 through the water outlet of the water inlet pipe 310. Through the drainage of the arc surface, the cooling water flows along the annular cavity, and then flows out from the water inlet of the water outlet pipe 320 under the drainage of the outer arc surface of the water-cooling annular groove 210 on the other side, and finally returns to the external water tank, thereby circulating cooling of the gun head and the nozzle. In actual use, the shielding gas of the welding gun itself can exchange heat with the cooling water in the annular cavity and cool down when passing through the shielding nozzle 100, and the shielding effect is better, which can ensure the welding quality. The water outlet of the water inlet pipe 310 and the water inlet of the water outlet pipe 320 are both arranged on the inner circumferential side wall of the sleeve ring 300, so that the front and rear pipe openings of the water inlet pipe 310 and the water outlet pipe 320 have the same diameter, thereby preventing the flow of the cooling water from fluctuating, thereby effectively ensuring the cooling effect during use.

[0049] The outer diameter of the sleeve ring 300 is the same as that of the water-cooling jacket 200. In this way, the diameter of the water-cooling jacket 200 can be limited to not be too large, thereby controlling the size of the nozzle and ensuring accessibility during workpiece welding.

[0050] In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the water cooling jacket 200 is 20-24 mm. Within this range, the accessibility of the workpiece welding is good, which can meet the welding needs of most scenes.

[0051] The central angle of the line between the center of the water outlet of the water inlet pipe 310 and the center of the water inlet of the water outlet pipe 320 is 60°. That is to say, the angle formed by the three points of the water outlet center of the water inlet pipe 310, the center of the sleeve ring 300 and the water inlet center of the water outlet pipe 320 is 60° with the center of the sleeve ring 300 as the vertex. The water outlet of the water inlet pipe 310 and the water inlet of the water outlet pipe 320 are respectively located at 30° on both sides of the vertical plane passing through the center of the sleeve ring 300, so that the cooling water flowing through the water outlet of the water inlet pipe 310 and the water inlet of the water outlet pipe 320 will not interfere with each other, the flow rate is stable, and the cooling effect is good.

[0052] In summary, the nozzle is divided into two parts, front and back. The front part of the protective nozzle 100 can be detachably connected to the gun head of the metal arc welding gun, and the rear part of the water cooling jacket 200 is threadedly connected to the protective nozzle 100, and is circulated and cooled by the cooling water flowing in the annular cavity. On the one hand, it can prevent the nozzle from being deformed during long-term continuous welding, and no spatter will accumulate in the nozzle, which has a long service life, greatly reduces the frequency of replacement and cleaning, improves welding efficiency, and saves production costs; on the other hand, the front and back parts are independent of each other, and can be quickly disassembled and replaced.

[0053] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not limitations on the technical solutions of the present utility model. Any technical solution that can be implemented on the basis of the above embodiments without creative work should be deemed to fall within the scope of protection of the patent of the present utility model.
