Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of moving contact welding equipment, in particular to a cooling mechanism for a moving contact welding machine. Background Art

[0002] The moving contact is an important component in the circuit breaker. Silver spots need to be welded at both ends of the moving contact. During the welding process, a large current is required, and the moving contact is usually a metal part with good electrical and thermal conductivity. Therefore, after the silver spot welding work on one end of the moving contact is completed, the temperature on the moving contact is high, which will affect the silver spot welding work on the other end of the moving contact, and may result in poor welding effect. Therefore, after the silver spot welding work on one end of the moving contact is completed, it is necessary to wait for the moving contact to be completely cooled before the next welding work can be carried out. In the prior art, the cooling of the moving contact is usually completed by natural cooling. Such cooling efficiency is low, which will cause reduced welding efficiency. In addition, cooling the moving contact by natural cooling requires two loading and unloading processes for the moving contact. Through the existing feeding and discharging equipment, it is impossible to ensure that the end of the unwelded silver spot faces the welding machine. According to the characteristic that the moving contact in the prior art is usually centrally symmetrically arranged, a new type of moving contact cooling mechanism is designed. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a cooling mechanism for a moving contact welding machine, which can ensure the accurate welding position of the moving contact, improve the welding efficiency, and ensure that the moving contact is welded in a completely cooled state.

The constant current fan is located directly above the transmission track. The flipping device includes a third sliding base slidably connected to the equipment base, a fourth sliding base slidably connected to the third sliding base, a second electric clamping claw connected to the fourth sliding base, a third hydraulic cylinder for driving the third sliding base to move in a horizontal direction, a fourth hydraulic cylinder for driving the fourth sliding base to move in a vertical direction, and a rotating motor for driving the second electric clamping claw to rotate. When the first sliding base is in an initial state, the first electric clamping claw is located directly above the fixed workstation, and the second electric clamping claw corresponds to the end position of the transmission track. The controller is electrically connected to the first hydraulic cylinder, the second hydraulic cylinder, the third hydraulic cylinder, the fourth hydraulic cylinder, the rotating motor, the first electric clamping claw, the second electric clamping claw, the driving member and the constant current fan, respectively.According to the technical scheme, first, the moving contact to be welded is placed on a fixed station to complete the first welding, and then the controller is used to control the first hydraulic cylinder to drive the first sliding base to move to the top of the fixed station, and then the controller is used to control the second hydraulic cylinder to drive the second sliding base to move vertically downward, so that the first electric clamping claw contacts the moving contact to be processed, and then the controller is used to control the first electric clamping claw to clamp the moving contact to be welded, and then the controller is used to control the first hydraulic cylinder and the second hydraulic cylinder to drive the first sliding base and the second sliding base to move, so that the first electric clamping claw moves to the top of the carrier on the transmission track, and then the moving contact to be processed is placed on the limiting groove of the carrier, and then the controller is used to control the driving member to drive the carrier to move along the transmission track, so that the next carrier without the moving contact is placed moves to the bottom of the first electric clamping claw, and the above steps are repeated, and then the moving contact with silver spot welding completed at one end moves in the direction of the constant current fan, and after being cooled by the cold air blown by the constant current fan, it continues to move in the direction of the flipping device. When the carrier moves into place, The controller controls the third hydraulic cylinder to drive the third sliding base to move in the direction of the carrier, and then controls the fourth hydraulic cylinder to drive the fourth sliding base to move in the vertical direction through the controller, so that the second electric clamping claw moves to the position corresponding to the moving contact, and then the moving contact is clamped by the second electric clamping claw, and then the fourth hydraulic cylinder is controlled by the controller to drive the fourth sliding base to move vertically upward, so that the moving contact is separated from the carrier, and then the controller controls the rotating motor to drive 180 degrees, and then the controller controls the fourth hydraulic cylinder to drive the fourth sliding base to move vertically downward, so that the moving contact is installed on the carrier.

With the above technical solution, since the first transmission track, the second transmission track, the third transmission track and the fourth transmission track form a closed loop, the travel required for the carrier to return to the bottom of the welding machine after completing the silver spot welding work at one end of the moving contact is further improved, thereby further ensuring that the moving contact is in a completely cooled state when welding the other end of the moving contact. The utility model is further configured as follows: the driving member includes a push rod slidably connected to the equipment base and a fifth hydraulic cylinder for driving the push rod to move in a horizontal direction. The number of the driving members is four, and the positions of the four driving members respectively correspond to the connection between the first transmission rail and the second transmission rail, the connection between the second transmission rail and the third transmission rail, the connection between the third transmission rail and the fourth transmission rail, and the connection between the fourth transmission rail and the first transmission rail.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, first, the fifth hydraulic cylinder is controlled by the controller to drive the push rod to move the carrier located on the first transmission track toward the direction of the welding machine. The carrier subjected to the thrust will push the adjacent carrier the same distance, and then the carrier moves to the connection between the first transmission track and the second transmission track, and the moving contact on the carrier is rotated 180 degrees by the flipping device, and then the fifth hydraulic cylinder is controlled by the controller to drive the push rod at this position to push the carrier from the first transmission track to the second transmission track.

Then, the moving contact with silver spot welding completed at one end moves in the direction of the constant current fan 6, and after being cooled by the cold air blown by the constant current fan 6, it continues to move in the direction of the flip device 4. When the carrier After the carrier 15 moves to the right position, the controller 7 controls the third hydraulic cylinder 21 to drive the third sliding base 18 to move in the direction of the carrier 15, and then controls the fourth hydraulic cylinder 22 to drive the fourth sliding base 19 to move in the vertical direction through the controller 7, so that the second electric clamping claw 20 moves to the position corresponding to the moving contact, and then the moving contact is clamped by the second electric clamping claw 20, and then the controller 7 controls the fourth hydraulic cylinder 22 to drive the fourth sliding base 19 to move vertically upward, so that the moving contact is separated from the carrier 15, and then the controller 7 controls the rotating motor 23 to drive 180 degrees, and then the controller 7 controls The fourth hydraulic cylinder 22 drives the fourth sliding base 19 to move vertically downward, so that the moving contact is installed on the carrier 15.

Compared with the traditional moving contact welding machine, this greatly improves the welding efficiency because there is no need to wait for the moving contact to cool naturally. At the same time, it ensures that the moving contact can be welded in a completely cooled state, thereby improving the welding effect.The transfer track 14 includes a first transfer track 24, a second transfer track 25, a third transfer track 26 and a fourth transfer track 27. The first transfer track 24 is located below the first fixed frame 8, and the third transfer track 26 is located directly below the constant flow fan 6.

[0013] Since the first transmission track 24, the second transmission track 25, the third transmission track 26 and the fourth transmission track 27 form a closed loop, the travel required for the carrier 15 to return to the bottom of the welding machine after completing the silver spot welding work at one end of the moving contact is further improved, thereby further ensuring that the moving contact is in a completely cooled state when welding the other end of the moving contact.
