DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] Example

[0030] like Figures 1 to 11As shown, the automatic welding device provided in this embodiment includes a ground rail 100, a workbench 200, a cantilever 300, a welding robot arm 400 and a gun cleaner 500. The ground rail 100 includes a bottom frame 101, a short beam 103, a guide rail 104, a rack 106, a guard plate 107 and a leveler 113. Multiple short beams 103 are welded in parallel in the bottom frame 101. The short beams 103 can increase the structural strength of the bottom frame 101, thereby ensuring the load-bearing effect of the bottom frame 101. Levelers 113 are installed at the bottom of the bottom frame 101 at both ends of each short beam 103. Multiple levelers 113 are used In order to adjust the horizontal position and height of the ground rail 100 to provide a stable working environment for the welding robot arm 400 to ensure the welding quality, parallel guide rails 104 are installed on the top of both sides of the bottom frame 101, and the workbench 200 is slidably installed on the guide rails 104 through sliders. A drag chain 109 connected to the workbench 200 is installed on the bottom frame 101. On the one hand, it is used to detect the position of the workbench 200 to facilitate welding by the welding robot arm 400, and on the other hand, it increases the coverage of the welding robot arm 400 to adapt to the welding of oversized workpieces. The rack 106 is installed on one side of the guide rail 104, and a servo reduction motor 504201 is installed on the workbench 200. The servo reduction motor 504201 drives the workbench 200 to move by engaging the gear with the rack 106. The bottom and both sides of the bottom frame 101 are installed with a guard plate 107 that wraps the ground rail 100. The guard plate 107 is used to wrap the guide rail 104 and the rack 106 of the ground rail 100, which can reduce the impact of the external environment on the accuracy of the ground rail 100, thereby ensuring the welding accuracy. One end of the cantilever 300 is fixed on the workbench 200, and the welding robot arm 400 is installed at the other end of the cantilever 300. The workbench 200 is equipped with a welding machine 203, a welding wire barrel 204, and a water tank that assist the welding robot arm 400 to realize welding processing. 205 and control cabinet 206, welding machine 203, welding wire barrel 204, water tank 205 and control cabinet 206 are installed on the workbench 200. On the one hand, they can increase the weight of the workbench 200, thereby improving the stability of the workbench 200 moving on the ground rail 100. On the other hand, they can reduce the deadweight of the welding robot arm 400, improve the stability of the cantilever 300 support, and ensure the stability of the welding robot arm 400 when moving. A line laser sensor 414 for identifying the position and direction of the weld is installed at the end of the welding robot arm 400. The line laser sensor 414 can effectively improve the welding accuracy of the welding robot arm 400 and improve the welding quality. A gun cleaner 500 is installed on the cantilever 300. The gun cleaner 500 is used to clean the welding gun to ensure the welding quality.

[0031] In order to improve the stability of the workbench 200 traveling on the ground rail 100, as Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown, a drag chain 109 is installed in the base frame 101, a groove 110 for storing the drag chain 109 is installed on the short beam 103, end point limiters 111 are installed at both ends of the outer wall of the base frame 101, and an in-position switch 112 that can be connected to the end point limiter 111 is installed on the workbench 200. The drag chain 109 can provide energy and signals for the workbench 200 and the welding robot 400 installed on the workbench 200, effectively ensuring the normal operation of welding. At the same time, the end point limiter 111 and the in-position switch 112 can limit the moving stroke of the workbench 200 to prevent the workbench 200 from moving out of the support range of the ground rail 100.

[0032] Since the workbench 200 has a heavy load, in order to improve the stability of the ground rail 100 support, Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, the guide rail 104 is uniformly processed with a plurality of connecting holes 105 along the length direction, and the base frame 101 is processed with a positioning hole aligned with each connecting hole 105. The guide rail 104 is fixedly connected to the base frame 101 by passing the locking screws through the connecting holes 105 and the positioning holes. The locking screws can improve the stability and anti-bending effect of the connection of the guide rail 104, and effectively prevent the guide rail 104 from being laterally displaced due to being too long or the weight of the workbench 200 pressing the guide rail 104.

[0033] In order to facilitate the leveling of the ground rail 100, Figure 3 As shown, the leveler 113 includes a load-bearing plate 114, a rib plate 115, an adjusting screw 116 and a foot support plate 117. One end of the load-bearing plate 114 extends to the outside of the base frame 101. The rib plate 115 supporting the load-bearing plate 114 is installed on the side wall of the lower part of the base frame 101. The rib plate 115 is vertically arranged, and the adjusting screw 116 is threadedly connected to the load-bearing plate 114. The bottom of the adjusting screw 116 is connected to the foot support plate 117. The vertically arranged rib plate 115 can increase the load capacity and further improve the supporting effect of the leveler 113 on the workbench 200.

[0034] To facilitate welding, Figure 6 、 Figure 7As shown, the welding robot arm 400 includes a base 401, a turntable 402, a support arm 403, a movable arm 404 and a welder 407. The base 401 is fixed to the end surface of the cantilever 300, the turntable 402 is rotatably mounted on the base 401, the turntable 402 is hinged with a support arm 403, the end of the support arm 403 away from the turntable 402 is hinged with the movable arm 404, and the end of the movable arm 404 is mounted with a welder 407. In order to adapt to the welding of super-large workpieces, the end of the movable arm 404 close to the support arm 403 is mounted with a wire feeder 405, and the wire feeder 405 is mounted with a wire feeding tube 406 connected to the wire drum. The welding wire in the welding wire reel is fed to the welder 407 along the wire feeding tube 406 under the action of the wire feeder 405. Placing the welding wire reel on the workbench 200 can reduce the weight of the robot arm and improve the stability of the cantilever 300 supporting the welding robot arm 400. However, in order to avoid entanglement between the wire feeding tube 406 and the welding robot arm 400, an inverted L-shaped support rod 207 is installed on the workbench 200 on one side of the cantilever 300, and a tension balancer 208 for hanging the wire feeding tube 406 is hung on the support rod 207. The tension balancer 208 bears the weight of the wire feeding tube 406 under the action of the support rod 207, thereby reducing the weight of the welding robot arm 400.

[0035] In order to improve welding accuracy, such as Figure 7 As shown, the welder 407 includes a support 408, a bent tip welding gun 409, a mounting plate 410, a visual recognition module 411, an extension rod 412 and an adjustment plate 413. The support 408 is hinged at the end of the movable arm 404. The support 408 is mounted with a bent tip welding gun 409. One side of the support 408 is also connected to a mounting plate 410. The visual recognition module 411 is connected to the mounting plate 410. The visual recognition module 411 is used to identify the position and direction of the weld. The visual recognition module 411 uses a structured light camera to shoot the weld and transmits the data to the controller to provide a reference for the welder 203 to work. The workbench 2 00 is equipped with a screen 209 for viewing the information captured by the visual recognition module 411, a keyboard, a mouse and other peripherals, and the controller then controls the welding robot arm 400 to drive the bent nozzle welding gun 409 to perform welding processing. An extension rod 412 is also installed on the mounting plate 410, and the end of the extension rod 412 is connected to an adjustment plate 413. The line laser sensor 414 is installed on the adjustment plate 413, and the line laser sensor 414 is parallel to the nozzle of the bent nozzle welding gun 409 through the adjustment plate 413. A light shielding plate is installed on the line laser sensor 414. The light shielding plate can reduce the influence of the temperature during welding on the line laser sensor 414, thereby effectively improving the welding accuracy.

The positioning block 510 and the clamping cylinder 511 are symmetrically installed on the side walls on both sides of the clamping seat 509, and the positioning hole cooperates with the clamping cylinder 511 to clamp the bent nozzle welding gun 409. When the bent nozzle welding gun 409 is aligned with the reamer 506, the motor 504 drives the reamer 506 to rotate, and the screw mechanism 505 drives the reamer 506 to move up and down to clean the bent nozzle welding gun 409. In order to shorten the cleaning time of the welding gun, the reamer 506 is hollow, and the side wall of the reamer 506 is processed with The chip groove 507 is provided, and the chips are thrown out from the chip groove 507.
