Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of steel pipe welding technology, and in particular to a welding device for butt joints of steel pipes of different diameters. Background Technology
[0002] Steel pipes are tubular products made of steel, and can be divided into seamless steel pipes and welded steel pipes. Seamless steel pipes are formed by heating steel billets and extruding them through a steel pipe die. Seamless steel pipes have a smooth surface and a uniform inner wall, making them suitable for applications requiring high pressure, high temperature, or complex shapes. Welded steel pipes are made by bending, rolling, and then welding steel plates, and are commonly used in the construction of structural frames, load-bearing columns, and beams. In the oil and gas industry, steel pipes are used to transport fluids such as oil, gas, and water. In machinery manufacturing, steel pipes are used to manufacture bearings, automotive exhaust systems, and hydraulic equipment.
[0003] Current welding devices for joints of steel pipes of different diameters lack a center alignment device during welding. If center alignment is not performed, the steel pipes may tilt after welding multiple steel pipes of different diameters, affecting the quality of the finished product.
[0004] Therefore, in view of this situation, there is an urgent need to design and produce a welding device for the joints of steel pipes of different diameters to meet the needs of practical use. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a welding device for the joint of steel pipes of different diameters, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a welding device for joint seams of steel pipes of different diameters, comprising a base, a rotating circular tube for joint seams of steel pipes of different diameters, and a welding machine for welding joint seams of steel pipes of different diameters. A second fixing plate is fixedly connected inside the rotating circular tube. A second motor is installed on the side of the second fixing plate. A spur gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor. A rack that is slidably connected to the rotating disk is meshed on the side of the spur gear. A support plate is fixedly connected to the lower side of the rack. A push-button switch is installed on the side of the support plate away from the rack.
[0007] Preferably, a first fixing plate is fixedly connected to the upper side of the base and rotatably connected to the rotating round tube, and a first motor is installed on the side of the first fixing plate.
[0008] Preferably, a first telescopic rod is installed on the side of the base, and a first movable block is fixedly connected to the extended end of the first telescopic rod.
[0009] Preferably, a second telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the upper side of the first movable block, a first support frame is fixedly connected to the extended end of the second telescopic rod, and a third telescopic rod is installed on the side of the first movable block.
[0010] Preferably, the extended end of the third telescopic rod is fixedly connected to a second movable block, and the upper side of the second movable block is fixedly connected to a fourth telescopic rod.
[0011] Preferably, the extended end of the fourth telescopic rod is fixedly connected to a second support frame, a fifth telescopic rod is installed on the side of the base, and a third moving block is installed on the extended end of the fifth telescopic rod.
[0012] Preferably, a sixth telescopic rod is installed on the upper side of the third moving block, and the extended end of the sixth telescopic rod is connected to the welding machine.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] The welding device for the joint of steel pipes of different diameters uses a second motor to drive a spherical gear to rotate, which in turn drives a rack to move. The movement of the rack drives a support plate to move, and the support plate supports the inside of the steel pipes, fixing the steel pipes of different diameters at the same center. During movement, the second support frame limits the movement of the two steel pipes of different diameters to prevent the smaller steel pipe from being fitted inside the larger steel pipe.
[0015] The steel pipe is moved by the second telescopic rod, the first moving block and the first support frame, and is limited by the second support frame, so that there is a small gap between the two steel pipes of different diameters, which makes it easy to weld them by a welding machine.

The fourth telescopic rod 17 is then activated, moving the second support frame 18 away from the steel pipes. The welding machine 21 is then activated to weld the steel pipes. Finally, the first motor 3 is activated, rotating the rotating disc 4 and the steel pipes to perform a full weld.
