[0038] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The welding device provided in one embodiment of the present application includes a bearing assembly 10, a plurality of side profiling members 20 and a plurality of pre-tightening members 30. The plurality of side profiling members 20 are mounted on the bearing assembly 10 and enclose a welding space 21 for accommodating the workpiece 100 to be welded. The surface of each side profiling member 20 can be in contact with the circumferential side wall of the workpiece 100 to be welded. When the workpiece 100 to be welded is welded at high temperature, the workpiece 100 to be welded will expand due to the high temperature, and the shape of the workpiece 100 to be welded is corrected by the plurality of side profiling members 20 to avoid a large change in the dimensional accuracy of the workpiece 100 to be welded.
[0039] During the high-temperature welding process, the workpiece 100 to be welded will not only expand due to the high temperature, but also soften due to the high temperature, which will eventually cause the workpiece 100 to collapse, thereby causing an uneven surface of the product after welding.
[0040] To this end, a plurality of pre-tightening members 30 correspond to a plurality of side profiling members 20 one by one, and each pre-tightening member 30 is disposed between the corresponding side profiling member 20 and the bearing assembly 10, and is used to apply a pre-tightening force to the corresponding side profiling member 20 toward the welding space 21. When the workpiece 100 to be welded is located in the welding space 21, the pre-tightening force applied by the pre-tightening member 30 can enable the side profiling member 20 to always press the workpiece 100 to be welded, thereby achieving the effect of correcting the shape of the workpiece 100 to be welded, and further ensuring that the surface of the product formed by the workpiece 100 to be welded after welding is flat.
[0041] The above-mentioned welding device is surrounded by a plurality of side profiling members 20 to form a welding space 21 for accommodating the workpiece 100 to be welded. The surface of each side profiling member 20 can be in contact with the circumferential side wall of the workpiece 100 to be welded, and a pre-tightening force toward the welding space 21 is applied to the corresponding side profiling member 20 by a plurality of pre-tightening members 30, so that the side profiling member 20 can always press the workpiece 100 to be welded, thereby correcting the shape of the workpiece 100 to be welded, thereby ensuring that the surface of the product formed by the workpiece 100 to be welded after welding is smooth, thereby improving the precision size of the final product.
[0042] Optionally, the piece to be welded 100 is formed by splicing multiple glass pieces together. After the piece to be welded 100 is placed in the welding device, the welding device is placed in an atmosphere-protected high-temperature furnace so that the splicing parts of the multiple glass pieces are melted and melted together, and finally the multiple spliced pieces are formed into a whole. In some other embodiments, the piece to be welded 100 can also be a workpiece such as plastic that needs to undergo a welding process.
[0043] In some embodiments of the present application, the bearing assembly 10 includes a base 11, a top seat 12 and a plurality of connecting members 13. The base 11 and the top seat 12 are arranged at intervals along a first direction X. All side profiling members 20 are arranged between the base 11 and the top seat 12. The two ends of each connecting member 13 are respectively connected to the base 11 and the top seat 12. The plurality of connecting members 13 are arranged at intervals around the welding space 21. Each preload member 30 is arranged between at least one connecting member 13 and the corresponding side profiling member 20.
[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, when the preload member 30 applies a preload force to the corresponding side profiling member 20, the preload member 30 will also apply a reaction force to the connecting member 13 connected to itself, and the base 11 and the top seat 12 are connected to form a whole through multiple connecting members 13, so that the reaction force will not only act on the connecting member 13, but also act on the welding device as a whole, thereby reducing the deformation of the connecting member 13 caused by the reaction force, thereby ensuring that the preload member 30 can normally apply a preload force to the side profiling member 20.
[0045] In some embodiments, in some embodiments of the present application, a guide slope 22 is provided on a side of each side profiling member 20 away from the welding space 21, each connecting member 13 extends longitudinally along the first direction X, and each pre-tightening member 30 abuts between the guide slope 22 of the corresponding pre-tightening member 30 and the connecting member 13. The guide slope 22 intersects with the first direction X, and when the welding device is working, the pre-tightening member 30 will be pressed by gravity, so that the pre-tightening member 30 can press the part to be welded 100.
[0046] Specifically, when the welding device is working, the first direction X is parallel to the direction of gravity. At this time, the guide slope 22 is inclined relative to the direction of gravity. The preload member 30 placed between the guide slope 22 and the bearing assembly 10, because the guide slope 22 is inclined relative to the direction of gravity, causes the preload member 30 to move downward along the guide slope 22 under the action of gravity until it abuts against the connecting member 13. At this time, the gravity of the preload member 30 is all applied to the guide slope 22, and finally converted into a horizontal preload force applied to the side profiling member 20, so that the side profiling member 20 can be tightly attached to the to-be-welded member 100 located in the welding space 21.
[0047] It is understandable that, in other embodiments, the preload member 30 may also be an elastic member such as a spring. By arranging the spring between the connecting member 13 and the side profiling member 20 and making the spring in a compressed state, a certain preload force can also be applied to the side profiling member 20 by the spring, so that the side profiling member 20 can be close to the part to be welded 100.
[0048] Specifically in some embodiments, the preload member 30 is a cylinder, and the axial direction of the preload member 30 is parallel to the guide bevel 22. When the preload member 30 is placed on the guide bevel 22, the side surface of the cylinder is tangent to the guide bevel 22, thereby reducing the contact area between the preload member 30 and the guide bevel 22, thereby making the rolling of the preload member 30 smoother. When the welded part 100 is deformed, the movement of the preload member 30 on the guide bevel 22 can push the side profiling member 20 to move together, so that the side profiling member 20 is always close to the side wall of the welded part 100.
[0049] Among them, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The part 100 to be welded includes a top plate 111, a bottom plate 112 and a plurality of side plates 113. The plurality of side plates 113 are arranged around the edges of the top plate 111 and the floor, and are respectively spliced with the top plate 111 and the floor to form the part 100 to be welded. After welding is completed, the top plate 111, the bottom plate 112 and each side plate 113 bracket will form a whole.
[0050] Specific to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In the embodiment of the invention, the side plate 113 includes three, and the side profiling members 20 include three, and the three side profiling members 20 are respectively a first side profiling member 23, a second side profiling member 24 and a third side profiling member 25, wherein the first side profiling member 23 and the third side profiling member 25 are arranged opposite to each other, and the second side profiling member 24 is respectively connected to the first side profiling member 23 and the third side profiling member 25. The pre-tightening members 30 also include three, namely a first pre-tightening member 37, a second pre-tightening member 38 and a third pre-tightening member 39, wherein the first pre-tightening member 37 abuts between the first side profiling member 23 and two connecting members 13, the second pre-tightening member 38 abuts between the second side profiling member 24 and one connecting member 13, and the third pre-tightening member 39 abuts between the third side profiling member 25 and two connecting members 13.
[0051] Furthermore, the top plate 111 and the bottom plate 112 of the part 100 to be welded can be shaped directly by the top seat 12 and the base 11, but different top seats 12 and bases 11 must be prepared for different parts 100 to be welded, which is costly. For this reason, in some embodiments, the welding device also includes a lower profiling member 40, which is installed on the base 11, and the lower profiling member 40 can fit together with the bottom surface of the welding part, so that when the part 100 to be welded is welded, the bottom of the part 100 to be welded is shaped by the lower profiling, thereby avoiding excessive deformation of the bottom of the part 100 to be welded, ensuring the precise size of the product after welding, and when a different part 100 to be welded is replaced, it is only necessary to replace the corresponding lower profiling member 40 without replacing the base 11.
[0052] Furthermore, the welding device also includes an upper profiling member 41, which is placed on the top of the workpiece 100 to be welded, and the upper profiling member 41 is in contact with the top surface of the workpiece 100 to be welded, so that when the workpiece 100 to be welded is welded, the top of the workpiece 100 to be welded is shaped by the upper profiling member, thereby avoiding excessive deformation of the top of the workpiece 100 to be welded and ensuring the precise size of the product after welding.
[0053] Among them, the bottom plate 112 of the part to be welded 100 is in contact with the surface of the lower profiling member 40, the multiple side plates 113 correspond to and fit with the multiple side profiling members 20 respectively, and the top plate 111 is in contact with the surface of the upper profiling member 41. During the welding process of the part to be welded 100, the middle part of the top plate 111 will soften due to the high temperature. Since only the edges of the top plate 111 can be supported on the multiple side plates 113, and the upper profiling member 41 is placed above the top plate 111, the middle part of the top plate 111 will collapse, affecting the precision size of the product formed after welding.
[0054] To this end, in some embodiments of the present application, the welding device also includes a lifting member 31, which is installed on the supporting assembly 10, and multiple side panels 113 on the workpiece 100 to be welded are arranged in sequence, and an opening 110 connected to the interior of the workpiece 100 to be welded is formed between the first side panel 113 and the last side panel 113. The lifting member 31 can enter the interior of the workpiece 100 to be welded through the opening 110, and can abut against the top of the workpiece 100 to be welded, so as to support the top plate 111 of the workpiece 100 to be welded through the lifting member 31, thereby preventing the top plate 111 from collapsing.
[0055] In some embodiments, the lifting member 31 is constructed to be able to apply a lifting force to the top of the workpiece 100 to be welded toward the profiling member, that is, the lifting member 31 can apply a lifting force toward the profiling member to the top plate 111 of the workpiece 100 to be welded, so that the top plate 111 can press the upper profiling member 41, and then the top plate 111 can fit the surface of the upper profiling member 41, and finally the surface of the top plate 111 can be smoother after welding, thereby improving the precision size of the final product.
[0056] Specifically, in some embodiments, the welding device further includes a fixing member 32 and a weight 33. The fixing member 32 is mounted on the bearing assembly 10. The middle part of the lifting member 31 is swingably mounted on the fixing member 32. The weight 33 is mounted on one end of the lifting member 31 in the longitudinal direction. The other end of the lifting member 31 extends into the interior of the part to be welded 100 through the opening 110 and abuts against the top of the part to be welded 100. In this way, when the welding device is working, the end of the lifting member 31 on which the weight 33 is mounted will move downward under the gravity of the weight 33, while the end of the lifting member 31 extending into the interior of the part to be welded 100 will move upward and apply a certain pressure to the top of the part to be welded 100, which is the lifting force.
[0057] Specific to Figure 1 In the embodiment, a through hole 34 is provided on the fixing member 32, and the axial direction of the through hole 34 is perpendicular to the first direction X. The lifting member 31 is penetrated by the through hole 34, and a mounting groove 36 is provided on one end of the lifting member 31, and the longitudinal direction of the mounting groove 36 is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the lifting member 31. A mounting column 35 is provided on the weight 33, and the mounting column 35 can be placed in the mounting groove 36, so that the weight 33 is installed on one end of the lifting member 31, and the other end of the lifting member 31 can pass through the opening 110 to enter the interior of the to-be-welded member 100 and abut against the middle part of the top plate 111. Under the action of the weight 33, the lifting member 31 can apply a certain pressure to the top plate 111, so that the surface of the top plate 111 fits with the upper contour member 41.
[0058] The embodiment of the present application also provides a glass processing device, including a welding device as in any of the above embodiments, wherein the piece to be welded 100 is formed by splicing a plurality of glass pieces, and the glass processing device can heat the piece to be welded 100 in the welding device, so that the splicing points between the plurality of glass pieces melt and fuse with each other, and finally the plurality of glass pieces form a whole. The above welding device enables the side profiling piece 20, the upper profiling piece 41 and the lower row piece to always press the glass pieces, thereby achieving the effect of correcting the shape of each glass piece, thereby ensuring that the surface of the product formed after the plurality of glass pieces are welded is flat, and improving the precision size of the final product.
[0059] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0060] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent application shall be subject to the attached claims.
