Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automatic welding of milling cutters, in particular to automatic laser welding equipment for milling cutters. Background Art
[0002] A milling cutter is a rotary tool with one or more teeth used for milling. During operation, each tooth cuts off the workpiece's excess in turn and intermittently. Milling cutters are mainly used to process planes, steps, grooves, formed surfaces, and cut workpieces on milling machines. They generally include a shank and a blade. The blade is welded and fixed to the shank by welding. The welding process is a key process in the milling cutter manufacturing process, which is used to weld the blade to the milling cutter. This process is directly related to the quality and cost of the product. At present, domestic manufacturers basically use manual welding. Manual welding is usually extremely difficult to control the welding positioning point, and the welding accuracy is low. As a last resort, the blade grinding allowance can only be widened. This practice will lead to a waste of expensive alloy raw materials on the one hand; on the other hand, it will increase the workload of the subsequent process and increase the cost; the third aspect is that the blade reserved angle is changed, which seriously affects the product quality. Manual mass welding is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also the welding quality and quality cannot be guaranteed. For example, the welding temperature and mechanical strength are difficult to control, which directly affects the product quality.
[0003] And in the application document with the publication number CN213497157U, an automated laser welding device for a milling cutter is mentioned. The device first fixes the connecting column of the milling cutter on the milling cutter fixing device, and places a group of blades on the blade pushing mechanism. The milling cutter fixing device is started to drive the milling cutter body to rotate to the position where the blade needs to be welded, and then the blade pushing mechanism is started to push the blade to the welding position on the cutter head, and then the laser welding head is used for welding. After completing one welding, the blade pushing mechanism withdraws from the working position, the milling cutter fixing device drives the milling cutter body to rotate to the next position where the blade needs to be welded, and then the blade pushing mechanism advances to the working position, and pushes the blade to the welding position on the cutter head again, and the laser welding head is used for welding, and so on, until all positions on the milling cutter are welded with blades, the milling cutter is removed from the milling cutter fixing device, and the next milling cutter to be welded is replaced. After the blade is used up, the next group of blades are replaced. However, there are still certain defects, which need to be optimized. The specific defects are as follows: the ejector pin in the device will be worn after a long contact with the milling cutter body, which is not convenient for replacement.
[0004] Therefore, it is particularly important to design an automated laser welding device for a milling cutter to change the above technical defects and improve overall practicality. Utility Model Content
