Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of welding equipment, and in particular relates to a gas protection device for welding. Background Art

[0002] Welding, also known as fusion, is a manufacturing process and technology that uses heat, high temperature, or high pressure to join metals or other thermoplastic materials, such as plastics. Welding is a critical step in the manufacturing process. To prevent the weld from reacting with oxygen and nitrogen in the air at high temperatures, a shielding gas is used during the welding process. This prevents oxidation and nitridation of the weld, ensuring weld quality and performance.

[0003] Nowadays, argon gas is usually sprayed from the welding gun nozzle to isolate the oxidation effect of air on the weld and heat-affected zone. However, this method has great limitations. The argon gas sprayed from the welding gun nozzle can only cover part of the front area of ​​the weld. The protection range is small and the argon gas cannot accumulate, and cannot provide complete protection for the weld and its heat-affected zone. In particular, the back of the weld is often difficult to take care of, and it is easy to form welding defects such as embrittlement, porosity, and cracks after welding. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a gas protection device for welding, which reduces the oxidation risk of the back of the weld during the welding process and improves the quality of the weld.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is: a gas protection device for welding, comprising a gas protection hood and an air pipe joint, an L-shaped opening is provided on one side of the gas protection hood, an L-shaped laminar plate is provided at the L-shaped opening, and a plurality of through holes are provided on the L-shaped laminar plate; the air pipe joint is connected to the interior of the gas protection hood, and the air pipe joint is used to connect a protective gas storage device; the two sides of the L-shaped opening are used to rest against two parts to be welded, and are located on the back of the welding position.

[0006] Furthermore, a connecting rod is fixed on the gas protection cover.

[0007] Furthermore, several layers of wire mesh are provided inside the gas protection cover.

[0008] Furthermore, the gas shield is used to abut against two parts to be welded and is provided with sealing layers on both sides.

[0009] Furthermore, extended side panels are provided around the L-shaped opening.

[0010] The working principle of this technical solution is:

[0011] Hold the connecting rod and use it to snap the gas shield onto the back of the weld. Place the two sides of the shield firmly against the two parts to be welded. Before welding begins, open the shielding gas reservoir to allow the shielding gas to quickly and evenly fill the shield, covering the heat-affected zone. After welding is complete and the temperature of the weld has dropped below 100°C, remove the shielding gas reservoir and move to the next weld. Repeat the above steps until welding is complete.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this technical solution are:

[0013] The shielding gas storage device is connected via a gas pipe connector, allowing the gas shield to be filled with shielding gas. During welding, the shield covers the back of the weld to be welded, allowing the shielding gas to reach the weld pool surface and cover the heat-affected zone. This significantly reduces the weld surface's exposure to air, lowering the risk of oxidation during welding and improving weld quality. This solves the existing problem of insufficient backside protection during welding, which can lead to quality defects such as embrittlement, porosity, and cracks. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] The following is further described in detail through specific implementation methods:

[0020] The reference numerals in the drawings of the specification include: gas protection cover 1, L-shaped laminar flow plate 2, extended side plate 3, connecting joint 4, gas pipe joint 5, wire mesh 6, connecting rod 7.

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] The embodiment is basically as shown in the attached Figure 1-5 As shown: A gas protection device for welding, which can be used for welding protection of pressure vessels, and can also be used for welding protection of simple tube and shell structures. The material can be titanium alloy, stainless steel, carbon steel, etc. The overall structure includes a gas protection hood 1 and a gas pipe joint 5. The gas protection hood 1 can be a square box structure or a cylindrical structure. An L-shaped opening is provided on one side of the upper side of the gas protection hood 1, and an L-shaped laminar plate 2 is provided at the L-shaped opening. The L-shaped laminar plate 2 is provided with a plurality of through holes. The interior of the gas protection hood 1 is provided with a plurality of layers of wire mesh 6 (specifically, corrugated metal wire mesh 6). Extended side panels 3 are provided around the L-shaped opening. The two sides of the L-shaped opening are used to abut against the two parts to be welded, and are located on the back of the welding position. The two sides of the gas protection hood 1 used to abut against the two parts to be welded are provided with a sealing layer (specifically, Teflon high-temperature tape). A tracheal connector 5 and a connecting connector 4 are provided on the underside of the gas shield 1. The tracheal connector 5 communicates with the interior of the gas shield 1 and is used to connect to a protective gas storage device (specifically, an argon cylinder). The outlet of the protective gas storage device is equipped with a gas outlet check valve. Connecting connector 4 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 7. The overall shape of the connecting rod 7 is determined according to specific requirements and can be a support rod or an L-shaped rod.

[0023] The gas shield 1, the extended side plate 3, the L-shaped laminar flow plate 2, the gas pipe joint 5, and the connecting joint 4 can be made of copper, brass, or stainless steel, wherein copper is more suitable for a welding environment.

[0024] The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0025] Hold the connecting rod 7 in your hand, and then use the connecting rod 7 to snap the gas shield 1 onto the back of the weld. The two sides of the gas shield 1 are respectively pressed against the two parts to be welded. Before welding begins, open the shielding gas storage device so that the shielding gas quickly and evenly fills the gas shield 1, covering the heat-affected zone of the weld. After welding is completed, wait until the welding of this section of the weld is completed and the temperature drops to below 100°C, move the gas shield device away to the position of the next weld section, and repeat the above steps until welding is completed. When the pressure in the argon cylinder drops to 0.5MPa, the cylinder should be replaced immediately to prevent affecting the quality of the weld joint.
