A gripper 8 is mounted on the robotic arm of the transport robot 6. A worktable 9 is provided on one side of the linear ground rail 7, and two arc-shaped ground rails 5 are provided on the other side. A hydraulic lifting assembly 11 is installed inside each arc-shaped ground rail 5. A three-jaw chuck 10 is installed on the upper side of the hydraulic lifting assembly 11, and a sponge titanium reactor 14 is located above the three-jaw chuck 10. A cutting robot 1 is mounted on one of the arc-shaped ground rails 5, and a plasma cutting assembly 2 is mounted on the cutting robot 1. A vision system 12 is installed on one side of the plasma cutting component 2, and a welding robot 3 is installed on another arc-shaped ground rail 5. A welding machine component 4 is installed on the welding robot 3, and a grinding component 13 is installed on the welding robot 3 on one side of the welding machine component 4. With the cooperation of the arc-shaped ground rail 5, the cutting robot 1, the welding robot 3, the straight ground rail 7, the handling robot 6, the vision system 12, the three-jaw chuck 10, and the hydraulic lifting component 11, the automated cutting and welding operation of the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 is realized, which improves the efficiency of cutting and welding the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 and reduces labor and time costs.

[0025] like Figures 1-4As shown, in this embodiment, the transport robot 6 slides with the linear ground rail 7, which is bolted to the mounting base. The linear ground rail 7 ensures convenient movement of the transport robot 6 between the two arc-shaped ground rails 5. The transport robot 6 slides with the linear ground rail 7, which is bolted to the mounting base. The transport robot 6 cooperates with the gripper 8 to assist in clamping operations when cutting and welding the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14. The telescopic part of the hydraulic lifting component 11 is bolted to the three-jaw chuck 10. The fixed part of the hydraulic lifting component 11 has its own bracket. The fixed part of the hydraulic lifting component 11 is placed on the mounting base. The three-jaw chuck 10 can clamp the flange to be welded at the bottom of the sponge titanium reactor 14 and lift the flange to be welded under the action of the hydraulic lifting component 11.

[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, the cutting robot 1 slides with the corresponding arc-shaped ground rail 5, and the plasma cutting component 2 is bolted to the robotic arm of the cutting robot 1. With the cooperation of the cutting robot 1 and the plasma cutting component 2, the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 can be easily cut. The camera of the vision system 12 is directly facing the cutting part of the plasma cutting component 2. The vision system 12 is bolted to the cutting robot 1. The vision system 12 is mainly used for visual imaging and positioning during the cutting and welding process to ensure the accuracy of cutting and welding. The welding robot 3 slides with the corresponding arc-shaped ground rail 5. The welding machine component 4 is installed on one side of the welding robot 3. The grinding component 13 is installed on the welding robot 3 on one side of the welding machine component 4. A vision system 12 is also installed on the welding robot 3 on one side of the grinding component 13. With the cooperation of the welding robot 3 and the welding machine component 4, the flange can be easily welded at the bottom of the sponge titanium reactor 14.

[0027] The specific implementation process of this embodiment is as follows: When cutting the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14, the cutting robot 1 first takes a visual photograph to locate the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 that has been hoisted. After the above steps are completed, the hydraulic lifting group 11 will rise, driving the three-jaw chuck 10 to move to the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14. The three-jaw chuck 10 opens, and the cylinder of the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 falls into the middle of the three-jaw chuck 10. The three-jaw chuck 10 clamps the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14, and the cutting robot 1 starts to work. The cutting gun at the front end of the robotic arm cuts along the edge of the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14. The cutting robot 1 moves in a circle along the sponge titanium reactor 14 on the arc-shaped ground rail 5 to cut the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 until the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 is completely cut off.

[0028] After the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 is completely cut off, the hydraulic lifting assembly 11 descends and separates the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 from the anti-sponge titanium reactor 14. The gripper 8 on the front robotic arm of the handling robot 6 picks up the cut-off bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 and places it on the workbench 9 next to the linear ground rail 7.

[0029] After the bottom flange of the sponge titanium reactor 14 is cut, the sponge titanium reactor 14 is hoisted away to push out the sponge titanium inside the sponge titanium reactor 14. After the sponge titanium is pushed out of the sponge titanium reactor 14, the sponge titanium reactor 14 is hoisted to the bottom flange welding area.

[0030] The gripper 8 at the front end of the robotic arm of the handling robot 6 grabs the bottom flange of the previously cut-off sponge titanium reactor 14 and places it on the three-jaw chuck 10 in the welding area. The three-jaw chuck 10 clamps the bottom flange of the reactor.

[0031] Welding robot 3 first switches to and installs vision system 12. Vision system 12 takes visual pictures of the bottom flange and bottom interface of sponge titanium reactor 14. After taking pictures, the front arm of welding robot 3 switches again and installs grinding machine component to grind the bottom flange and bottom flange interface of sponge titanium reactor 14. After grinding, the front arm of welding robot 3 switches to and installs welding gun of welding machine component 4 through quick-change device. Hydraulic lifting component 11 lifts the bottom flange of sponge titanium reactor 14 and connects it with the bottom opening of sponge titanium reactor 14. Welding robot 3 starts welding operation on bottom flange of sponge titanium reactor 14. Welding robot 3 makes circular motion on arc-shaped ground rail 5 until the welding of bottom flange and bottom opening of sponge titanium reactor 14 is completed.

[0032] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
