Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0027] Therefore, the following detailed description of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention claimed for protection, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] This embodiment discloses an automatic welding displacement device for a penstock tile stiffening ring (hereinafter referred to as the automatic welding displacement device), as a preferred implementation scheme of the technical solution. Figure 1 As shown, it includes a welding / operating platform; two tile fixing and flipping mechanisms are arranged in mirror symmetry below the welding / operating platform, a stiffening ring support truss is arranged between the two tile fixing and flipping mechanisms, and a stiffening ring positioning unit is arranged on the top of the stiffening ring support truss. Among them, the welding / operating platform is used to control the operation of the entire automatic welding displacement device, and the staff can implement operation control of the automatic welding displacement device on the welding / operating platform. It is also possible to remotely install an industrial computer to communicate with the welding / operating platform, and control some operating functions of the automatic welding displacement device through the industrial computer.
[0030] The fixed flip mechanism includes a machine 1, a tile turntable 2, a transmission shaft 3 and a power mechanism; the power mechanism is installed on the machine 1 and is electrically connected to the welding / operating platform; the transmission shaft 3 horizontally penetrates the machine 1 and is rotatably connected to the machine 1 through a bearing; one end of the transmission shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the center of the tile turntable 2, and the other end is fixedly connected to the power mechanism; a number of tile fixing mechanisms 4 are arranged at intervals on the edge of the lower half of the tile turntable 2. Among them, the machine mainly provides an installation interface for the power mechanism, and is also the bearing basis of the automatic welding displacement device.
[0031] Based on the above structure, in the actual welding process: the first step is to lift the corresponding stiffening ring body 18 to the stiffening ring support truss through external lifting equipment, and use the stiffening ring positioning unit on the stiffening ring support truss to position the stiffening ring body 18. The second step is to lift the tile body 19 between the two tile fixing and flipping mechanisms by external lifting, and then use the tile fixing mechanism 4 on the edge of the lower half of the two tile turntables 2 to fix the two sides of the tile body 19. The third step is to place a wedge block between the stiffening ring positioning unit and the stiffening ring body 18, so that the stiffening ring body 18 and the tile body 19 are tightly attached, and then spot welding is performed on the stiffening ring body 18 and the tile body 19. The fourth step is to start the power mechanism of the two fixed flipping mechanisms through the welding / operating platform, so that the two power mechanisms run synchronously, and cooperate to control the two tile turntables 2 to rotate synchronously to flip the tile body 19 upward. The fifth step is to start the welding / operating platform during the flipping process of the tile body 19, and to synchronously weld the welds on both sides of the stiffening ring body 18 along the length direction of the stiffening ring body 18 through the welding / operating platform. During this period, the frequency conversion speed regulation method can be used to control the power mechanism to drive the tile turntable 2 to match the flipping speed of the tile body 19 with the speed of the welding operation of the welding / operating platform.

A set of stiffening ring positioning assemblies 14 is installed with one stiffening ring body 18. When the number is greater than the number of stiffening ring bodies 18 required to be welded, some stiffening ring positioning assemblies 14 can be selected to be used.
