Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of rail weld heating equipment, and particularly relates to a mobile rail induction welding device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, flash welding is the primary method used for connecting railway rails. However, the high temperature at the weld joint causes excessive grain growth on both sides of the rail, severely impacting the mechanical properties of the weld joint. Normalizing treatment can effectively improve the grain size on both sides of the rail weld, thereby enhancing the rail's mechanical properties.

[0003] Currently, the normalizing system for rail welded joints mainly employs two heating methods: medium-frequency induction heating coil heating and flame heating. Induction welding utilizes the eddy current effect in the workpiece induced by an alternating magnetic field-electric field to heat the workpiece, causing it to melt and thus achieving welding; it belongs to pressure welding. Induction heating can be divided into high-frequency induction heating (100kHz~1000kHz), medium-frequency induction heating (1kHz~10kHz), and power frequency induction heating (50Hz) according to the frequency of the current used. Medium-frequency (1~10kHz) heating depth is 2-10mm, generally used for heating large-diameter shafts and large and medium-sized forged workpieces. Compared with flame heating, medium-frequency induction heating has advantages such as faster heating speed, measurable heating temperature, automatic control, and guaranteed normalizing quality.

[0004] Currently, rail welding and post-weld heat treatment at railway sites are carried out separately using different devices or equipment. This process suffers from low automation, high labor intensity, low organizational efficiency, and long construction cycles. Furthermore, the aforementioned separate devices are cumbersome and lack mobility. When welding and heat treatment is required at the rail joints, workers must manually operate the coil clamps to hold the rails and manually judge the coil alignment, resulting in high labor intensity and poor repeatability. Additionally, the welding devices lack weld bead removal capabilities, requiring manual removal, which is cumbersome. Moreover, after welding heating stops, the weld head cools rapidly from its high temperature; delays in removal significantly increase the difficulty. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a mobile rail induction welding device to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention provides a mobile rail induction welding device with a reasonable structural design to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art. This invention can complete welding, deburring, and heat treatment operations on a rail in a single clamping operation. It can also adjust the relative position of the weld and the coil to achieve precise positioning. It has a high degree of integration, reduces site requirements, lowers the labor intensity of workers, and reduces investment costs.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art is as follows: A mobile rail induction welding device includes a frame body assembly, on which a first rail clamping assembly and a second rail clamping assembly are installed in parallel along the length of the rail for clamping the rail; a rail upsetting assembly is installed on the frame body assembly for driving the first rail clamping assembly and the second rail clamping assembly to move relative to each other along the length of the rail; it also includes a weld bead pushing assembly and a welding heating assembly installed on the frame body assembly, both of which can move along the length of the rail; it also includes a transformer installed on the welding heating assembly for providing electrical energy to the welding heating assembly; the frame body assembly includes a static frame member and a moving frame member arranged in parallel and respectively for installing the second rail clamping assembly and the first rail clamping assembly, and a rail groove for the rail to pass through is opened at the lower end of both the static frame member and the moving frame member; a component that is slidably connected to the static frame member and parallel to the rail is installed on the moving frame member. The system includes multiple frame guide shafts; a rail upsetting assembly including an upsetting cylinder mounted on a stationary frame member, an upsetting shaft mounted on the upsetting cylinder parallel to the frame guide shafts and fixedly connected to the moving frame member; a welding heating assembly including a welding heating cylinder mounted on a stationary frame member, a coil transverse shifting plate mounted at the extended end of the welding heating cylinder between the stationary and moving frame members, a transfer electrode mechanism electrically connected to a transformer mounted on the coil transverse shifting plate, a right coil mechanism and a left coil mechanism slidably connected to the coil transverse shifting plate on both sides of the transfer electrode mechanism, and a coil drive mechanism for driving the right and left coil mechanisms to dock / open, after which the right and left coil mechanisms are docked and electrically connected to the transfer electrode mechanism and have cavities adapted to the cross-section of the rail; and a weld bead pushing assembly including a pushing cylinder mounted on a moving frame member, a pushing moving seat mounted at the extended end of the pushing cylinder between the stationary and moving frame members, and a pushing knife mechanism mounted on the pushing moving seat.

[0007] The advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model provides a mobile rail induction welding device. By setting up a welding heating component, it can realize induction welding and normalizing of rails. The coil drive mechanism in the welding heating component can drive the right coil mechanism and the left coil mechanism to close / open, thereby realizing the operation of wrapping the rail to be welded for induction welding, reducing the flash time during the welding process and reducing the amount of rail burning. The welding heating cylinder can drive the right coil mechanism and the left coil mechanism to move as a whole along the extension direction of the rail, thereby adjusting the relative position of the weld and the coil to achieve the desired welding effect. The precise positioning allows the right and left coil mechanisms to be moved to the weld position via a welding heating cylinder after welding to complete the heat treatment operation. This makes it suitable for various working environments and reduces site requirements. The rail upsetting assembly, in conjunction with the first and second rail clamping assemblies, applies upsetting pressure to the two mating rails, forging them and improving welding quality. The weld bead pushing assembly automatically removes the weld bead after welding, eliminating the need for manual removal and simplifying the process, further reducing labor intensity. This invention integrates induction welding and normalizing into a single welding heating assembly, using a single control and execution mechanism. This allows for multiple tasks—upsetting, induction welding, weld bead pushing, and normalizing—to be completed in a single rail clamping operation. The high degree of integration and automation, along with the compact and rational structure, improves work efficiency and reduces labor intensity and equipment costs.

Finally, the electrode transfer mechanism 6-4, the left second coil 6-2-5, the left first coil 6-2-4, the right first coil 6-1-4, and the right second coil 6-1-5 form a double-turn circuit.

[0049] See further Figure 12 The aforementioned weld bead pushing assembly 5 includes two sets of pushing cylinders 5-1 mounted on the moving frame member 9-3, arranged side by side. A pushing moving seat 5-3, located between the stationary frame member 9-1 and the moving frame member 9-3, is mounted at the extended end of the pushing cylinder 5-1. Multiple through holes are provided on the pushing moving seat 5-3 for the frame guide shaft 9-2 and the upsetting shaft 10-2 to pass through, and guide copper sleeves are installed within these through holes. Additionally, a pushing knife mechanism 5-2 is mounted on the pushing moving seat 5-3.

[0050] See further Figure 13 The aforementioned push-convex knife mechanism 5-2 includes a left push-convex knife seat 5-2-3 mounted on the push-convex moving seat 5-3, an upper push-convex knife seat 5-2-4 pivotally connected to the top of the left push-convex knife seat 5-2-3, a right push-convex knife seat 5-2-5 pivotally connected to the end of the upper push-convex knife seat 5-2-4, and a locking plate 5-2-1 pivotally connected to the end of the left push-convex knife seat 5-2-3 for hooking and connecting with the right push-convex knife seat 5-2-5. It also includes a locking member mounted on the right push-convex knife seat 5-2-5 for locking the locking plate 5-2-1 and the right push-convex knife seat 5-2-5.

[0051] The aforementioned locking component includes a push-pull handle 5-2-7 pivotally connected to the right push-pull cutter seat 5-2-5, and a screw mounting block 5-2-6 fixedly connected to the push-pull handle 5-2-7. When the locking plate 5-2-1 is hooked and connected to the right push-pull cutter seat 5-2-5, the screw mounting block 5-2-6 is connected to the locking plate 5-2-1 by bolts.

[0052] When the locking plate 5-2-1 is hooked and connected to the right push-face knife seat 5-2-5, the left push-face knife seat 5-2-3, the upper push-face knife seat 5-2-4, and the right push-face knife seat 5-2-5 form a cavity adapted to the cross-section of the rail 1.

[0053] This embodiment also includes a hydraulic station connected to the valve assembly 2. One end of the valve assembly 2 is connected to a hydraulic circuit, which is adapted to be connected to the inlet end of each of the above-mentioned oil cylinders. The other end of the valve assembly 2 is connected to the hydraulic station.

[0054] This embodiment also includes a cooling system. During welding and normalizing, the cooling system uses external water circulation, allowing water to pass through the hollow coils in the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2 to prevent the coils from overheating. This embodiment also includes a control box, which includes a PLC controller and a touch screen connected to the PLC controller. The PLC controller is connected to the power circuit, and the control terminals of each hydraulic cylinder are connected to the control terminals of the PLC controller. Several sensors and probes are connected to the detection terminals of the PLC controller. The PLC controller receives the detection information from the sensors and probes, acquires and displays the detection information on the touch screen, and automatically controls the corresponding actions of each component after judgment, or sends instructions through the touch screen. After receiving the instructions, the PLC controller controls the corresponding actions of each component.

[0055] Working principle:

[0056] In use, first connect transformer 7 to IGBT power supply, then start the clamping cylinders in each rail clamping assembly. The clamping cylinders drive the clamping mechanism to rotate around the clamping mounting shaft 3-8, thereby causing the jaws at the bottom of the first rail clamping assembly 3 and the second rail clamping assembly 8 to clamp and center the two rails 1 to be welded. The upsetting cylinder 10-1 applies an initial upsetting force to make the end faces of the two rails 1 at the joint close together. The welding heating cylinder 6-6 pushes the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2 to the joint of the rails 1 to be welded. The opening and closing cylinder 6-3-4 in the coil drive mechanism 6-3 causes the two coils in the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the two coils in the left coil mechanism 6-2 to move closer to the joint of the two rails 1, and realizes the closing of the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2, thereby wrapping the joint of the rails 1.

[0057] The PLC controller starts the IGBT power supply, energizing the electrode transfer mechanism 6-4, which in turn heats the rail 1 via the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2. Simultaneously, the cooling system is controlled to water-cool the coils in the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2, and the hydraulic system is controlled to maintain the movement of the clamping cylinder and the upsetting cylinder 10-1. Once the welding heating assembly 6 has heated the joint of the rail 1 to the preset temperature (range 1200~1430℃), the PLC controller shuts off the IGBT power supply and... The opening and closing cylinder 6-3-4 controls the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2 to open rapidly, while simultaneously commanding the upsetting cylinder 10-1 to apply the set upsetting force, so that the end faces of the two steel rails 1 are joined together; at the same time, the piston rod of the welding heating cylinder 6-6 drives the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2 to return to their initial positions, and the push-out cylinder 5-1 in the weld bead pushing assembly 5 pushes the push-out knife mechanism 5-2 to cut the weld bead, completing the push-out action of the weld bead; after the push-out is completed, the push-out knife mechanism 5-2 returns to its initial position;

[0058] Then, the weld at the joint of the two rails 1 is heat-treated. The welding heating cylinder 6-6 pushes the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2 back to the weld of the two rails 1. The opening and closing cylinder 6-3-4 pushes the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2 towards the two rails 1 and encloses the weld. When the weld cools to below 500℃, the PLC controller restarts the IGBT power supply, and the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2 are energized to heat the rails 1, raising the rail head temperature to the predetermined positive temperature. The heating temperature (usually in the range of 900 to 1100℃) completely austenitizes the microstructure at the rail weld. When the predetermined normalizing temperature is reached, the PLC controller shuts off the IGBT power supply, and the opening and closing cylinder 6-3-4 quickly pulls the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2 apart. The welding heating cylinder 6-6 drives the right coil mechanism 6-1 and the left coil mechanism 6-2 back to their initial positions. Then, the clamping cylinder is started, driving the jaws in the first rail clamping assembly 3 and the second rail clamping assembly 8 to open, finally completing the induction welding and heat treatment of the rail.
