Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of contact network steel pipe column manufacturing, and relates to a seam-joining mechanism for a contact network steel pipe column seam-joining welding integrated machine. Background Art

[0002] The raw materials for the production of circular steel pipe columns (hereinafter referred to as steel pipe columns) of electrified railway contact networks are generally steel plates, and the basic processing and production process is steel plate cutting → beveling → bending → jointing → spot welding → welding → grinding → assembly → inspection → galvanizing → re-inspection. Among them, the jointing process is carried out by a hydraulic jointing machine, and manual spot welding is used during the jointing. After the jointing is completed, the welding process is carried out. During welding, manual gas shielded welding is first used for base welding, and then an automatic submerged arc welding machine is used for secondary welding. It can be seen that the steel pipe column has the current status of low productivity, high labor intensity and unstable quality in the two processes of jointing and welding.

[0003] The technology of the existing domestic integrated seam welding machines is relatively mature, but since the inclination angle of the clamping devices on both sides cannot be adjusted, they can only be used in the production of large and medium-diameter steel pipe columns. For small and medium-diameter steel pipe columns with a diameter of φ200 to φ400, and some products have tapers, the wall thickness is usually 10 to 16 mm, the existing integrated machines cannot be directly used in the production of this product.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a seam-joining mechanism for a contact network steel pipe column seam-joining welding integrated machine to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art and to provide a seam-joining mechanism for a contact network steel pipe column seam-joining welding integrated machine, which can not only seam large-diameter steel pipe columns, but also small and medium-diameter steel pipe columns. During seam joining, the workpiece is not deformed and has high quality, thereby facilitating subsequent welding and achieving high-quality seam welding of the manufactured steel pipe columns.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a seam-joining mechanism for a contact network steel pipe column seam-joining welding machine, comprising a base, an upper clamping device, a bottom support wheel and clamping devices on both sides; the bottom support wheel is fixed to the middle of the front end of the base through a bracket;

[0007] The upper clamping device comprises a support frame fixed to the rear end of the base, a vertical hydraulic cylinder whose cylinder body is fixed to the upper end of the support frame, and an upper guide and clamping wheel fixed to the piston rod of the vertical hydraulic cylinder; the upper guide and clamping wheel is located directly above the bottom support wheel;

[0008] The clamping devices on both sides include a left support seat and a right support seat with inclined upper end faces symmetrically fixed on the base, hydraulic cylinders on both sides with inclined distribution and cylinder bodies respectively fixed on the left support seat and the right support seat, and clamping wheels on both sides fixed on the piston rods of the hydraulic cylinders on both sides with adjustable inclination angles; the clamping wheels on both sides are respectively located on both sides above the bottom support wheel; when in a closed state, the workpiece is placed on the bottom support wheel, and the upper guide and clamping wheels are pressed at the gap just above the workpiece, and the clamping wheels on both sides symmetrically tilt and clamp the workpiece on both sides of the workpiece in a closed manner at an inclination angle of 0-40° with the horizontal clamping degree.

[0009] Further preferably, the specific structure of the side pressure wheel being fixed on the piston rod of the side hydraulic cylinder with an adjustable tilt angle is: the upper end of the connecting piece is fixed to the piston rod of the side hydraulic cylinder through a first pin shaft, and the lower end thereof is rotatably fixed to the connecting block protruding from the rear end of the side base of the side pressure wheel through a second pin shaft; the connecting rod is composed of a middle long nut and two adjustable bolts threadedly connected to the two ends of the middle long nut, the upper adjustable bolt is fixed to the upper end of the connecting piece, and the lower adjustable bolt is fixed to the upper end of the side base of the side pressure wheel; a linear guide is fixed to the inclined surface of the upper end of the left support seat or the right support seat, and the bottom surface of the connecting piece is slidably fixed to the linear guide rail. In this way, when the piston rod of the side hydraulic cylinder drives the connecting piece to move up and down, the connecting piece can move up and down along the linear guide rail with high precision. The inclination of the side clamping wheel is not only determined by the inclined surface of the left support seat or the right support seat, but also its inclination angle can be adjusted by the connecting rod. The inclination angle can be adjusted within the inclination range of 0-40° with the horizontal clamping degree. The smaller the diameter of the workpiece steel pipe column, the smaller the angle between the side clamping wheel and the horizontal clamping degree.

[0010] Further preferably, the specific structure of the upper guide and pressure wheel being fixed on the vertical hydraulic cylinder piston rod is: the vertical hydraulic cylinder piston rod is fixed to the middle of the upper end of the gear rod through a connecting shaft, the middle of the lower end of the gear rod is fixed to the upper end of the base of the upper guide and pressure wheel; vertical racks are fixed on the symmetrical vertical support frames at both ends of the support frame; the gears at both ends of the gear rod are respectively meshed with the two vertical racks. In this way, the upper guide and pressure wheel are more stable and accurate in the process of moving up and down.

[0011] Further preferably, the upper guide and clamping wheel comprises an upper base, a plurality of cylindrical clamping wheels at the front end, and a thin-sheet guide wheel at the rear end that can be inserted into the gap of the workpiece steel pipe column; the clamping wheel and the guide wheel are hinged in the groove at the lower end of the upper base. In this way, when the workpiece steel pipe column is transported to the bottom of the upper guide and clamping wheel, it can be accurately positioned.

[0012] Further preferably, the bottom support wheel comprises a lower base and a plurality of support wheels hinged in the upper end groove of the lower base, and the support wheel is composed of two integrally formed tapered columns with a small middle diameter and large diameters at both ends. In this way, it has the function of supporting and limiting the workpiece steel pipe column.

[0013] Further preferably, the side clamping wheel comprises a side base and a plurality of side supporting wheels hinged in the lower end groove of the side base, and the side supporting wheel is composed of two integrally formed tapered columns with a small middle diameter and large diameters at both ends. In this way, the workpiece steel pipe column has the function of clamping and limiting.

[0014] The side clamping wheel of the joint mechanism of the utility model has a large adjustable range of the clamping direction, so that not only the height of the clamping on both sides of the workpiece steel pipe column can be adjusted, but also the horizontal clamping degree of the clamping on both sides of the steel pipe column can be adjusted, and the adjustable range is wide. When the diameter of the workpiece steel pipe column changes, it not only depends on the feed distance of the side hydraulic cylinder piston rod, but also can adjust the feed angle of the side clamping wheel to ensure that the workpiece steel pipe column can still be clamped at the most suitable position on the side of the workpiece steel pipe column when the diameter changes, so as to make the joint gap of the workpiece steel pipe column smaller and ensure that the workpiece steel pipe column does not deform. The utility model is applied to the contact network steel pipe column joint welding integrated machine, which not only facilitates the reliability and high quality of welding, but also improves the qualified rate and quality of the product. The utility model can also be used alone, and then manual spot welding is performed and then secondary welding is performed with an automatic submerged arc welding machine. The utility model can not only implement jointing of steel pipe columns of small and medium diameters, but also implement jointing of steel pipe columns of large diameters.

[0015] In short, the utility model can not only join large-diameter steel pipe columns, but also join small and medium-diameter steel pipe columns. During the joining, the workpieces are not deformed and the quality is high, which facilitates subsequent welding and the manufactured steel pipe column joints are of high quality.
