Description
A fully automatic anchor chain welding equipment Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of anchor chain welding technology, and in particular to a fully automatic anchor chain welding equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In shipbuilding, marine engineering and other fields, anchor chains are key components that ensure the safe berthing and operation of ships. Their quality and reliability are of paramount importance. With the rapid development of related industries, the demand for anchor chains is constantly increasing, and higher requirements are also being placed on the quality standards of anchor chains. Fully automatic anchor chain welding equipment has emerged to improve the efficiency and quality of anchor chain welding. However, traditional anchor chain welding equipment and processes have many problems in practical applications and are difficult to meet the needs of modern production.
[0003] During the welding process, due to the difficulty in precisely controlling the welding parameters, a large number of burrs, weld beads, and other protruding weld pieces are often generated at the weld joint. These excess weld pieces not only affect the appearance quality of the anchor chain, but more importantly, they reduce the overall strength and corrosion resistance of the anchor chain. During the use of the anchor chain, these burrs and weld pieces can easily cause stress concentration, leading to the anchor chain breaking at the weld joint when under stress, which seriously threatens the safety of the ship.
[0004] Existing equipment for trimming welded anchor chains is complex and inefficient. It usually requires manual handling to move the welded anchor chain to a specialized trimming device and then manually adjust the position of the anchor chain to align the weld with the trimming tool. Therefore, the need for a fully automated anchor chain welding device that can accurately align the weld with the trimming device has become a problem that the industry needs to solve. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Given that the existing equipment has problems of complicated operation and low efficiency when repairing welded anchor chains, it is usually necessary to manually transport the welded anchor chain to a special repair equipment and then manually adjust the position of the anchor chain to align the weld with the repair tool. Therefore, the need for a fully automatic anchor chain welding equipment that can accurately align the weld with the repair device has become a problem that the industry needs to solve, and this utility model is proposed.
[0006] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a fixed constraint post on one side of the rotating plug block. The fixed constraint post rotates synchronously with the rotating plug block. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the fixed anchor chain, the rotating plug block rotates, which drives the fixed constraint post to rotate. A fixed connecting block is provided on one side of the fixed constraint post. As the rotating component rotates, the fixed anchor chain will also rotate together. The rotation of the fixed constraint post can drive the fixed anchor chain to rotate 90 degrees back and forth, so that the weld of the fixed anchor chain directly below the trimming box is always aligned with the trimming box. After alignment, the weld is trimmed to remove burrs, weld beads and other protruding weld pieces generated by welding, thereby improving the overall production efficiency.

[0025] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] Example 1
[0027] Referring to Figures 1-3, the first embodiment of this utility model provides a fully automatic anchor chain welding device, including a welding device body 1 and a fixed constraint plate 18 on one side of the welding device body 1. The welding device body 1 is a CNC anchor chain flash butt welding machine. A limiting sleeve 2 is provided on one side of the welding device body 1. A limiting plug-in block 3 is provided on the inner wall of the limiting sleeve 2. A rotating plug-in block 4 is installed on the inner side of the limiting sleeve 2. A fixed constraint column 6 is provided on one side of the rotating plug-in block 4. A fixed connecting block 7 is provided on one side of the fixed constraint column 6. A discharge port 20 is opened on the welding device body 1. A fixed anchor chain 16 is provided inside the discharge port 20.
[0028] A rotating insertion groove 5 is provided on one side of the rotating insertion block 4. The limiting insertion block 3 is inserted into the inner side of the rotating insertion groove 5. A mechanical stop is provided on the contact surface between the limiting insertion block 3 and the rotating insertion groove 5 to limit the rotation angle to ±90°. A movable constraint block 8 is provided on one side of the fixed connection block 7. A movable constraint groove 10 is provided on the inner side of the movable constraint block 8. An anchor chain constraint groove 9 is provided on the inner side of the rotating insertion block 4 and the fixed constraint column 6. Multiple fixed anchor chains 16 are provided on the inner side of the anchor chain constraint groove 9.
[0029] Example 2
[0030] Referring to Figures 2-4, this is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that it includes a telescopic cylinder 14 installed on one side of the welding device body 1. A telescopic fixing rod 13 is provided on one side of the telescopic cylinder 14, and a U-shaped fixing block 12 is provided on one side of the telescopic fixing rod 13. The telescopic fixing rod 13 adopts a double guide rod structure to ensure that the U-shaped fixing block 12 moves horizontally without deviation. A rotation constraint column 11 is fixed on the U-shaped fixing block 12. The rotation constraint column 11 is inserted into the inner side of the movable constraint groove 10. Multiple anchor chains 15 to be welded are provided on the inner side of the welding device body 1.
[0031] Part of the anchor chain 15 to be welded is sleeved on the fixed anchor chain 16. A trimming box 17 is provided on one side of the main body 1 of the welding device. The movable constraint block 8 is located inside the U-shaped fixed block 12. A fixed constraint plate 18 is provided on one side of the main body 1 of the welding device. A dust collection port 19 is opened on the fixed constraint plate 18. The dust collection port 19 is located directly below the trimming box 17. The dust collection port 19 is connected to an external negative pressure dust collection device to remove debris in real time.
[0032] When using this fully automatic anchor chain welding equipment, first place multiple anchor chains 15 to be welded inside the main body 1 of the welding device. Some of the anchor chains 15 to be welded are sleeved on the fixed anchor chain 16 inside the main body 1 of the welding device. The main body 1 of the welding device starts to work and performs welding operation on the anchor chains 15 to be welded sleeved on the fixed anchor chain 16 to weld them into fixed anchor chains 16.
[0033] After welding, since the rotating plug 4 is installed inside the limiting sleeve 2 and the limiting plug 3 is inserted into the rotating plug groove 5 on one side of the rotating plug 4, the rotating plug 4 can only rotate around a specific axis inside the limiting sleeve 2. A fixed constraint post 6 is provided on one side of the rotating plug 4, and the fixed constraint post 6 rotates synchronously with the rotating plug 4.
[0034] When the position of the fixed anchor chain 16 needs to be adjusted, the rotating plug block 4 rotates, which drives the fixed constraint column 6 to rotate. A fixed connecting block 7 is provided on one side of the fixed constraint column 6, and the movable constraint block 8 on the fixed connecting block 7 will also rotate. Anchor chain constraint grooves 9 are opened on the inner side of the rotating plug block 4 and the fixed constraint column 6. Multiple fixed anchor chains 16 are located in the anchor chain constraint grooves 9. As the rotating component rotates, the fixed anchor chains 16 will also rotate together. The telescopic cylinder 14 in the telescopic component is installed on one side of the welding device body 1. When the telescopic cylinder 14 is working, it pushes the telescopic fixed rod 13 to move.
[0035] A U-shaped fixing block 12 is provided on one side of the telescopic fixing rod 13. A rotating constraint column 11 is fixed on the U-shaped fixing block 12. The rotating constraint column 11 is inserted into the movable constraint groove 10 inside the movable constraint block 8. When the telescopic cylinder 14 pushes the U-shaped fixing block 12 to move, the rotating constraint column 11 slides in the movable constraint groove 10, driving the movable constraint block 8 and the fixed connecting block 7, fixed constraint column 6 and rotating insertion block 4 connected to it to rotate. This allows the rotation of the fixed constraint column 6 to drive the fixed anchor chain 16 to rotate back and forth 90 degrees, so that the welded part of the fixed anchor chain 16 directly below the trimming box 17 is always aligned with the trimming box 17.
[0036] After alignment, the welded joint is trimmed to remove burrs, weld beads, and other protruding weld pieces. Dust and debris generated during the trimming process will fall off. Since the fixed constraint plate 18 has a dust collection port 19 and the dust collection port 19 is located directly below the trimming box 17, the dust and debris will be collected through the dust collection port 19 to keep the working environment clean.
[0037] The remaining structure is the same as that in Example 1.
[0038] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
