Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of middle trough welding, in particular to a double-gun automatic welding machine for the middle trough of a scraper conveyor. Background Art
[0002] Scraper conveyors are used for transporting coal underground in coal mines. They are among the most widely used equipment in coal mines and are also among the most susceptible to wear and tear. The central trough is a box-shaped structure formed by a center plate, a bottom plate, and trough sides. Because the weld bead between the center trough bottom plate and the inner side of the trough sides is located in a narrow space, the operator's line of sight is obstructed, making welding difficult. The existing conventional welding method for this weld bead involves hoisting the workpiece onto a workbench, securing it with fixtures, and manually welding. To facilitate welding, the workbench can be tilted at a certain angle. However, this method presents problems such as unstable weld quality, high labor intensity, and operational difficulties due to limited space.
[0003] Utility model application number 202322615215.1 discloses a mid-slot undercut welding position adjustment device, comprising a chute scraper transfer mechanism housing, a position adjustment mechanism, and a dual-gun undercut welding mechanism. The dual-gun undercut welding mechanism comprises a first gooseneck welding gun, a second gooseneck welding gun, a three-dimensional movement mechanism, a first wire feed mechanism, a second wire feed mechanism, a first single-arm undercut welding machine, and a second single-arm undercut welding machine. The three-dimensional movement mechanism comprises an X-axis slide, a first Y-axis slide, a second Y-axis slide, a first Z-axis slide, and a second Z-axis slide. This device automates undercut welding of welds in confined spaces within the chute scraper transfer mechanism housing, while reducing labor intensity and improving production efficiency.
[0004] The invention application with application number 201910691006.0 discloses a dual-cantilever dual-gun dual CNC plasma surfacing machine, including a surfacing platform, a light shielding screen, a plasma welding gun, a cantilever, a slide rail drag, a Y-axis motor, a Z-axis motor and a powder feeder, etc.; a symmetrical surfacing method is adopted for the bottom plate in the same middle groove, so that the weld is evenly and symmetrically deformed, solving the problem of weld cracking caused by uneven deformation of the bottom plate in the middle groove.
[0005] It can be seen that some existing middle slot welding devices use two guns to achieve symmetrical welding, but there are still some shortcomings, such as the welding gun cannot automatically align with the workpiece position, and the welding gun cannot dynamically correct deviation during movement. Based on this, the application proposes a scraper conveyor middle slot automatic welding machine with two guns. Utility Model Content

[0011] Furthermore, the welding machine also includes an arc sensor for detecting welding current.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

The workbench is driven by the workbench rotation drive module to fine-tune the position of the workpiece so that the undercut welding position of the middle trough is parallel to the infrared light emitted by the infrared light emitter, thereby achieving automatic alignment of the welding gun and the workpiece position, solving the problem of position deviation caused by manually adding positioning blocks for alignment, and improving production efficiency. During the welding process, the arc sensor detects the welding current in real time to determine whether the welding gun deviates from the set welding trajectory, which is conducive to dynamic deviation correction of the welding gun.

The double water-cooled welding guns 4 are driven to walk by the welding gun walking modules, so that the double water-cooled welding guns 4 move according to the set welding trajectory; each double An oscillator 6 is provided in the middle of the water-cooled welding gun 4 for adjusting the swing angle of the welding gun; the two wire feeders 5 are respectively located on the columns 11 of the corresponding welding gun travel modules, and the barreled welding wire 13 enters the wire feeder 5 from the wire inlet to transport the welding wire to the double water-cooled welding gun 4; the two infrared light emitters are respectively installed on the columns 11 of the corresponding welding gun travel modules, and emit infrared rays to the workpiece welding position on the workbench 3. The workpiece position is fine-tuned by rotating the workbench 3 so that the workpiece welding position is parallel to the infrared rays, thereby realizing automatic alignment of the welding gun and the workpiece position.
[0020] The workbench rotation drive module includes a slewing bearing 2, a workbench drive motor (not shown in the figure) and a gear transmission module (not shown in the figure); the outer ring of the slewing bearing 2 is fixedly connected to the base 1, and the inner ring is fixedly connected to the workbench 3; the workbench drive motor is fixed on the base 1, and the output shaft of the workbench drive motor is fixedly connected to the driving gear of the gear transmission module, and the driven gear of the gear transmission module is engaged with the outer ring of the slewing bearing 2, so that the workbench drive motor drives the slewing bearing 2 to rotate through the gear transmission module, and then drives the workbench 3 to rotate.
[0021] The welding gun walking module includes an X-axis guide rail 7, an X-axis slide 8, an X-axis drive module (not shown in the figure), a Y-axis guide rail 9, a Y-axis slide 10, a Y-axis drive module (not shown in the figure), a column 11, a Z-axis slide 12 and a Z-axis drive module (not shown in the figure); wherein the X-axis guide rail 7 is fixed to the ground, the X-axis slide 8 is slidably mounted on the X-axis guide rail 7, and the X-axis drive module is connected to the X-axis slide 8 to drive the X-axis slide 8 to slide back and forth on the X-axis guide rail 7; the Y-axis guide rail 9 is fixed on the X-axis slide 8, and the Y-axis slide 10 is slidably installed on the Y-axis guide rail 9, and the Y-axis drive module is connected to the Y-axis slide 10, which is used to drive the Y-axis slide 10 to slide back and forth on the Y-axis guide rail 9; the column 11 is fixedly installed on the Y-axis slide 10, and the Z-axis slide 12 is slidably installed on the column 11, and the Z-axis drive module is connected to the Z-axis slide 12, which is used to drive the Z-axis slide 12 to slide back and forth on the column 11; the dual water-cooled welding gun 4 is installed on the Z-axis slide 12, and the spatial position of the dual water-cooled welding gun 4 is adjusted by the X-axis drive module, the Y-axis drive module and the Z-axis drive module.

During the welding process, the welding current is detected in real time by the current sensor. When the welding current is greater than the set value, it indicates that the welding gun has deviated from the set welding trajectory and its movement position needs to be corrected.
