Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of laser welding technology, specifically a handheld laser welding gun with lens inspection function. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of industrial technology, welding technology has been widely used in various fields. Traditional welding methods have problems such as low welding precision, high technical requirements for operators, and low welding efficiency. Laser welding, as an advanced welding technology, has advantages such as fast welding speed, high weld quality, small heat-affected zone, and low technical requirements for operators.

[0003] However, existing laser welding heads mostly use temperature probes for lens protection. Due to the large time delay of temperature rise, the protection lens is often severely damaged when the alarm is triggered, which may even lead to damage to the focusing, collimating, reflecting lenses, and laser. To address this, we propose a handheld laser welding gun with lens detection function. Utility Model Content

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] The gun body has a water pipe inside, which is connected to the water circulation hole. The gun body also has an air channel inside, located around the protective gas guide ring, which is connected to the air hole.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] An insulating plate is placed on the left side wall of the gun body, and a wire feeding mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the left side wall of the gun body and to the left of the insulating plate.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The inner cavity of the wire feeding mounting bracket is fitted with an anti-collision chuck. A scale tube is inserted into the left side of the inner cavity of the anti-collision chuck. A locking nut is sleeved on the right side of the outer wall of the scale tube, and the locking nut is screwed onto the outer wall of the anti-collision chuck.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This handheld laser welding gun with lens detection function has an air passage that allows air to enter through the air passage. The protective gas is then evenly formed into an air curtain by the protective gas guide ring and blown onto the protective lens to prevent splashing and dust contamination of the protective lens. The gas is also blown onto the weld seam through the scale tube, thus protecting the weld seam. At the same time, water enters through the water passage through the water passage inside the gun body to cool the heat of the welding head through water circulation. Furthermore, a photosensitive sensor is used to collect the scattered light signal caused by lens contamination and use this as a basis for judging whether the lens is contaminated. The lens can be replaced by pulling it out. This effectively protects the internal lens of the laser welding gun, cools it down, and facilitates lens replacement. Attached Figure Description

[0034] In practical use, when using the laser welding gun, those skilled in the art hold the gun body 100, pass the welding wire through the wire feed mounting bracket 180, and adjust it to begin welding. During the operation of the laser welding gun, the gas passage 104 allows air to enter through the gas passage, and the protective gas is then evenly distributed into an air curtain by the protective gas guide ring 110, blowing it towards the protective mirror 121 to prevent splashing and dust contamination of the protective mirror 121. The gas is also blown towards the weld seam through the scale tube 191. Simultaneously, as the temperature rises during the operation of the laser welding gun, water enters through the water circulation hole 103 through the water passage pipe, flowing through the gun body 100. The internal water pipes cool the welding head by circulating water, and the photosensitive sensor 105 collects the scattered light signal caused by lens contamination to indicate whether the lens is contaminated. If contaminated, the protective drawer 120 is pulled out and the protective clamping ring is rotated out. After replacing the protective lens 121, the protective clamping ring is rotated to tighten, and then the protective drawer 120 is installed to complete the replacement of the protective lens 121.
