Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances. The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.
[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 6 In this embodiment of the present invention, a forging force balancing mechanism for a friction welding machine includes: a machine body 1, a balancing mechanism rear wall 2 fixedly connected to one end of the top surface of the machine body 1, a spindle box 3 provided at the other end of the top surface of the machine body 1, a main push cylinder 4 provided at the center of the balancing mechanism rear wall 2, a slide table 5 slidably connected to the top surface of the machine body 1, a balancing tie rod 6 penetratingly connected to one end of the balancing mechanism rear wall 2, and locking nuts 7 connected to both ends of the balancing tie rod 6.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The balancing mechanism rear wall 2 and the spindle box 3 are respectively located at both ends of the top surface of the machine tool body 1. The spindle box 3 integrates a clamping structure for holding the workpiece and an electrical structure for driving its rotation. The slide table 5 is slidably connected to the top surface of the machine tool body 1 between the balancing mechanism rear wall 2 and the spindle box 3, and one side of the slide table 5 is fixedly connected to the moving end of the output shaft of the main push cylinder 4. The slide table 5 integrates a clamping structure for holding the workpiece, and the clamping structure is located on the side of the slide table 5 facing the spindle box 3. The clamping structure in the slide table 5 and the clamping structure in the spindle box 3 are located on the same central axis and are arranged opposite each other. The slide table 5 clamps and fixes the workpiece, and the internal driving element of the spindle box 3 drives the clamping to rotate the workpiece.
[0027] Using the above scheme: When welding the workpiece, the main push cylinder 4 applies the upsetting force during welding. The upsetting force is transmitted through the slide table 5 to the workpieces clamped by the slide table 5 and the spindle box 3 respectively, driving the spindle box 3 to rotate and perform rotary friction welding.
[0028] Reference Figures 3 to 6 The balance rod 6 is synchronously inserted through the rear wall 2 of the balance mechanism and the main spindle box 3 and is fixed in the inserted state by the locking nuts 7 at both ends. There are two sets of balance rods 6 and their connecting structures, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the central axis of the main spindle box 3.
[0029] The above scheme is adopted: the reverse force of the upsetting force is borne by the balance pull bar 6 and the locking nut 7 symmetrically distributed on both sides of the central axis of the spindle box 3, ensuring that the force structure of the upsetting force remains balanced throughout the welding process, so that the upsetting force is evenly distributed on the surface of the workpiece to ensure the welding quality.
[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During use, the two sets of balance levers 6 and locking nuts 7, the main force-bearing components, are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the central axis of the spindle box 3 to ensure that the upsetting force applied to the workpiece can be evenly transmitted to each support point. When welding the workpiece, the upsetting force is applied by the main push cylinder 4. The upsetting force is transmitted through the slide table 5 to the workpieces held by the slide table 5 and the spindle box 3 respectively. At the same time, the reverse force is borne by the symmetrical balance levers 6 and locking nuts 7, ensuring that the force structure of the upsetting force remains balanced throughout the welding process, so that the upsetting force is evenly distributed on the surface of the workpiece to ensure welding quality. Meanwhile, the equipment monitors the force changes during the welding process in real time through high-precision sensors and transmits the data to the central control system. The central control system uses advanced signal processing and machine learning algorithms to analyze the data in real time and identify anomalies. Once an anomaly is detected, the control system will immediately adjust the output force of the main push cylinder 4 through precise hydraulic control technology to ensure the stability of the welding force. The system will also coordinate other parameters of the welding equipment to maintain the overall stability and consistency of the welding process, thereby significantly improving the welding quality and the reliability of the joint.
[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
