Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of welding auxiliary tools, specifically to a tungsten electrode length-cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] Rotary arc automatic argon arc welding, an automated tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding method using rotating electrodes, has been widely used in the field of metal conduit welding. In this welding method, a tungsten electrode is fixed in a circumferentially rotating track, and the axis of the metal conduit to be welded is coaxial with the track. When an electric arc is generated, the tungsten electrode rotates along the track, thereby welding the circumferential weld seam of the pipe.

[0003] In actual welding operations, the length of the tungsten electrode needs to be adjusted before welding to meet the clearance requirements between its end and metal conduits of different specifications. This clearance is a direct factor affecting the welding arc. If the welding arc is too long or too short, it will adversely affect the weld quality.

[0004] Currently, the length of tungsten electrodes is usually ensured by manual mechanical cutting. However, this manual cutting method has many drawbacks: (1) Low cutting accuracy: Manual cutting requires human control, making it difficult to ensure the accuracy of the cutting dimensions, resulting in a large error in the length of the tungsten electrode, which in turn makes the welding arc length unstable and affects the welding quality; (2) Poor end face quality: Manual cutting makes it difficult to ensure the flatness of the end face of the tungsten electrode, which is prone to tilting and unevenness, which is not conducive to the adjustment of the tungsten electrode in the equipment and reduces production efficiency; (3) Low safety: Metal spatter is generated when cutting and repairing tungsten electrodes, which can easily cause injury to the operator and is not conducive to safe production.

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, a device is needed that can achieve stable, fixed-size cutting of tungsten electrodes, while ensuring the smoothness of the tungsten electrode end face, and is convenient and safe to use. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention provides a tungsten electrode length-cutting device. This device, through precise dimensional positioning, stable cutting feed, convenient operation, and effective safety protection measures, solves the problems of low precision, poor end-face quality, and low safety associated with manual tungsten electrode cutting, thereby improving welding quality and production efficiency.

[0007] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0008] A tungsten electrode length-cutting device includes a positioning seat and a cutting seat. The positioning seat has a mounting hole for mounting a tungsten electrode blank to be cut. A measuring device that can be adjusted in position along the axis of the mounting hole is mounted on the positioning seat. The measuring device includes a positioning plate, which is perpendicular to the axis of the mounting hole. After the tungsten electrode blank to be cut passes through the mounting hole, its end rests on the positioning plate. The cutting seat includes a cutting seat base and a cutting blade. The cutting blade is rotatably mounted on the cutting seat base. The positioning seat is movably connected to the cutting seat through a positioning guide mechanism and can be fed toward the cutting blade. The positioning seat is provided with a clearance groove to provide working space for the cutting blade.

[0009] The measuring instrument also includes a scale plate, which is perpendicular to the axis of the mounting hole and has graduation lines.

[0010] The scale plate has graduation lines on both the top and front.

[0011] The accuracy of the scale lines is 1mm.

[0012] The measuring instrument also includes a connecting platform, which is fixedly connected to the back of the scale plate and is set parallel to the axis of the mounting hole. A connecting groove that slides with the connecting platform is provided on the positioning seat.

[0013] The positioning seat is provided with a fastening threaded hole, and a set screw is installed in the fastening threaded hole. The end of the set screw abuts against the side of the connecting table to fasten the measuring instrument to the positioning seat.

[0014] The cutting disc is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting shaft, which is rotatably mounted on the cutting base.

[0015] The connecting shaft is mounted in the bearing mounting hole of the cutting seat base via a bearing.

[0016] The cutting disc is equipped with a protective cover plate, which is fixedly installed at the opening of the cutting base.

[0017] The positioning and guiding mechanism includes a guide groove and a positioning surface set on the cutting base, as well as a web plate and a portal plate that make up the positioning base. Portal plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the web plate. The web plate and the guide groove cooperate to slide and feed along the guide groove towards the cutting blade. Positioning surfaces are set at both ends of the cutting base, and the inner sides of the portal plates on both sides cooperate with the positioning surfaces.

[0019] 1. This utility model discloses a tungsten electrode length-cutting device. This tungsten electrode length-cutting device can accurately position the tungsten electrode blank to be cut by means of a positioning plate and a scale plate on the measuring device. The scale lines set on the scale plate allow the operator to accurately determine the cutting length of the tungsten electrode, thereby controlling the dimensional error of the tungsten electrode after cutting within ±0.5mm. This effectively solves the problem of large length error of tungsten electrodes when cutting manually, ensures the stability of the welding arc length, and thus improves the welding quality.

[0020] 2. The present invention discloses a tungsten electrode length-cutting device. In this tungsten electrode length-cutting device, the positioning seat is movably connected to the cutting seat through a positioning guide mechanism and can feed toward the cutting blade, ensuring the vertical angle and stability of the cutting feed. At the same time, the clearance groove provided on the positioning seat provides working space for the cutting blade, so that the cutting blade can cut the tungsten electrode vertically, thereby ensuring the flatness of the tungsten electrode cutting end face, which is beneficial to the adjustment of the tungsten electrode in the equipment and improves the installation efficiency.

[0021] 3. The present invention discloses a tungsten electrode length-cutting device, in which the measuring tool can slide arbitrarily in the connecting groove of the positioning seat. The operator can quickly adjust the position of the measuring tool as needed, thereby quickly obtaining the required tungsten electrode length, making the device more convenient to use and improving work efficiency.

[0022] 4. The present invention discloses a tungsten electrode length-cutting device. The cutting base and the protective cover plate of the tungsten electrode length-cutting device form a relatively closed space. The metal spatter generated during the cutting of the tungsten electrode is effectively blocked by the protective cover plate, avoiding the impact of metal spatter on the operator and the surrounding environment, and improving the safety of the device in use.

The web plate 11 can be vertically inserted into the cutting seat base 31 to ensure the vertical angle of the tungsten electrode blank cutting feed, so that the end face of the tungsten electrode after cutting is flush. A clearance groove 16 is opened in the web plate 11 to provide working space for the cutting blade 33. During operation, the web plate 11 is inserted into the cutting seat base 31, and the rotating cutting blade 33 cuts the tungsten electrode in the clearance groove 16 to achieve fixed-length cutting.

[0058] The cutting base 31 has three threaded holes 311 at one end, and the protective cover plate 34 has three through holes II 341. The threaded holes 311 and the through holes II 341 are matched.
