Welding can provide a strong connection, enabling the coal mining machine to withstand various stresses and loads in complex working environments.
[0003] Chinese patent document CN218745794U discloses a novel pipe welding device. In operation, two pipes to be welded are placed inside two fixing rings, with their joints aligned vertically with the welding head on an L-shaped support frame. The welding head is then activated to begin welding. Simultaneously, two drive motors rotate corresponding drive gears, which in turn rotate T-shaped limit blocks, which in turn rotate the fixing rings.

[0039] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a new technical solution: a pipe welding device for coal mining machine production, including a workbench 1, a placement groove 2 on the upper side of the workbench 1, the workbench 1 extending from both the front and rear sides of the placement groove 2, a support frame 3 mounted on the upper side of the workbench 1, a welding head 4 fixedly mounted on the lower wall of the support frame 3, a lifting groove 5 on the upper side of the workbench 1, the lifting groove 5 being located to the right of the placement groove 2, the lower side of the support frame 3 slidingly extending into the interior of the lifting groove 5, a hydraulic cylinder assembly 6 fixedly connected inside the workbench 1, the right side of the hydraulic cylinder assembly 6 extending out of the workbench 1, a hydraulic telescopic rod 7 fixedly connected to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder assembly 6, the upper side of the hydraulic telescopic rod 7 slidingly extending into the interior of the lifting groove 5, the upper side of the hydraulic telescopic rod 7 fixedly connected to the support frame 3, and two connecting grooves on the workbench 1. 8. Two connecting grooves 8 are respectively set on the left and right sides of the placement groove 2. Two limiting slide grooves 9 are opened inside the worktable 1. The bottom walls of the two connecting grooves 8 extend into the interior of the two limiting slide grooves 9. Two fixing mechanisms are set on the worktable 1. The two fixing mechanisms can fix the two pipes that need to be welded together. The connection structure of the two fixing mechanisms is the same and is set in front and behind. The following description focuses on the front fixing mechanism. The fixing mechanism includes a fixing frame 10, two limiting blocks 11, a fixing pressure plate 12, a threaded rod 13, a handle 14 and two limiting insert rods 15. A control mechanism is set on the worktable 1. The control mechanism can control the rotation and flipping of the two pipes. The control mechanism includes a rotating groove 16, a motor assembly 17 and a rotating roller 19.
[0040] Furthermore, the fixing frame 10 is set on the upper side of the workbench 1. The fixing frame 10 is an inverted U-shaped block. The two lower sides of the fixing frame 10 slide into the interior of the two connecting grooves 8 respectively. The two limiting blocks 11 are slidably connected to the interior of the two limiting grooves 9 respectively. The two limiting blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the two lower sides of the fixing frame 10 respectively. The fixing pressure plate 12 is installed on the lower side of the top wall of the fixing frame 10. The fixing pressure plate 12 is an arc-shaped plate. The lower side of the fixing pressure plate 12 is a smooth surface. The fixing pressure plate 12 is set above the placement groove 2. The threaded rod 13 is rotatably connected to the upper side of the fixing pressure plate 12. The upper end of the threaded rod 13 is threaded through the fixing frame 10. The handle 14 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the threaded rod 13. The two limiting rods 15 are fixedly connected to the upper side of the fixing pressure plate 12 respectively. The two limiting rods 15 are respectively set on the left and right sides of the threaded rod 13. The upper ends of the two limiting rods 15 slide through the fixing frame 10.
[0041] Furthermore, a rotating groove 16 is formed inside the workbench 1 and is located below the placement groove 2. The rotating groove 16 is connected to the placement groove 2. A motor assembly 17 is fixedly connected to the front side of the workbench 1. A drive shaft 18 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor assembly 17. The rear end of the drive shaft 18 extends rotatably into the interior of the rotating groove 16 and is rotatably connected to the rear wall of the rotating groove 16. A rotating roller 19 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the drive shaft 18 and is located inside the rotating groove 16. A portion of the upper side of the rotating roller 19 extends into the interior of the placement groove 2 and can contact the tube. The rotating roller 19 is made of fluororubber material with high friction.
[0042] Furthermore, when starting work, first place both pipes inside the placement groove 2, then install the fixing bracket 10. At this time, the two limit blocks 11 are aligned with the two limit slides 9 respectively, so that the fixing bracket 10 can be installed on the workbench 1. Then move the fixing bracket 10 to the appropriate position and stop, then turn the handle 14. The handle 14 drives the threaded rod 13 to start rotating synchronously. Because the threaded rod 13 is threadedly connected to the fixing bracket 10, the threaded rod 13 will start to move downwards. In turn, the threaded rod 13 will drive the fixing pressure plate 12 to move downwards synchronously. Then the fixing pressure plate 12 will press and fix one pipe. As the fixing pressure plate 12 moves downwards, it will drive the two limit rods 15 to move downwards synchronously. The cooperation between the limiting rod 15 and the fixing frame 10 can limit the fixing plate 12, so that the fixing plate 12 can only move up and down but cannot rotate. When the fixing plate 12 presses and fixes the pipe, due to the mutual force, the threaded rod 13 will drive the fixing frame 10 to move upward, and then the fixing frame 10 will drive the two limiting blocks 11 to move upward synchronously. Then the upper side of the two limiting blocks 11 will fit against the top wall of the two limiting slide grooves 9. Thus, the fixing frame 10 and the two limiting blocks 11 can be fixed in the two connecting grooves 8 and the two limiting slide grooves 9 by mutual force. Then, the other fixing frame 10 is installed on the workbench 1 in the same way to fix another pipe.
[0043] After the fixing is completed, the hydraulic cylinder assembly 6 is activated. The hydraulic cylinder assembly 6 drives the hydraulic telescopic rod 7 to move up and down. In turn, the hydraulic telescopic rod 7 drives the support frame 3 to move up and down synchronously. The support frame 3 drives the welding head 4 to move up and down synchronously. Thus, the welding head 4 can move to a suitable welding height according to the thickness of the pipe. Then, the welding head 4 can weld the two pipes. At the same time, the motor assembly 17 is activated. The motor assembly 17 transmits power from the output end, drives the transmission shaft 18 to rotate synchronously. The transmission shaft 18 drives the rotating roller 19 to rotate synchronously. Then, the rotating roller 19 drives the two contacting pipes to rotate, so that the two pipes can rotate and flip during the welding process.
[0044] Furthermore, this method allows for adjustment based on the diameter of the pipe used for welding, enabling the welding equipment to be used in the production of different types of coal mining machines, thereby expanding the applicability of the welding equipment.
[0045] Structural Description: Workbench 1: The main body of the equipment, primarily used to provide a stable and safe working environment to facilitate welding operations;
[0046] Support frame 3 and welding head 4: Welding structure, through which the pipe can be welded. The structure of support frame 3 and welding head 4 is the same as the L-shaped support frame and welding head structure in the prior art document with publication number CN218745794U.
[0047] Lifting groove 5, hydraulic cylinder assembly 6, and hydraulic telescopic rod 7: Adjustment structure. The lifting groove 5 is located on the upper side of the workbench 1. The lower side of the support frame 3 slides into the interior of the lifting groove 5. The hydraulic cylinder assembly 6 is fixedly connected to the interior of the workbench 1. The right side of the hydraulic cylinder assembly 6 extends out of the workbench 1. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder assembly 6 is fixedly connected to the hydraulic telescopic rod 7. The upper side of the hydraulic telescopic rod 7 slides into the interior of the lifting groove 5. The upper side of the hydraulic telescopic rod 7 is fixedly connected to the support frame 3. When the hydraulic cylinder assembly 6 is activated, it will drive the hydraulic telescopic rod 7 to extend and retract. In turn, the hydraulic telescopic rod 7 will drive the support frame 3 and the welding head 4 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the welding head 4 so that the welding head 4 can be adjusted according to the thickness of the welded pipe. At the same time, the right side of the hydraulic cylinder assembly 6 extends out of the workbench 1, which facilitates the heat dissipation of the hydraulic cylinder assembly 6.
[0048] Connecting groove 8 and limiting slide groove 9: connecting structure. There are two connecting grooves 8 and two limiting slide grooves 9. The two connecting grooves 8 are opened on the upper side of the worktable 1 and are respectively set on the left and right sides of the placement groove 2. The worktable 1 has two limiting slide grooves 9 inside, which are respectively set on the left and right sides of the placement groove 2. The bottom wall of the two connecting grooves 8 extends into the interior of the two limiting slide grooves 9. The fixing mechanism can be connected to the worktable 1 through the connecting grooves 8, and the fixing mechanism can be limited and fixed through the limiting slide grooves 9.
[0049] Fixed frame 10 and limiting block 11: The frame of the fixing mechanism. The fixed frame 10 is an inverted U-shaped block. The two lower sides of the fixed frame 10 slide into the interior of the two connecting grooves 8 respectively. There are two limiting blocks 11. The two limiting blocks 11 are slidably connected to the interior of the two limiting grooves 9 respectively. The two limiting blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the two lower sides of the fixed frame 10 respectively.
[0050] Fixed pressure plate 12, threaded rod 13, handle 14, and limiting rod 15: These are fixed structures. The fixed pressure plate 12 is installed on the lower side of the top wall of the fixed frame 10. The threaded rod 13 is rotatably connected to the upper side of the fixed pressure plate 12, with its upper end threaded through the fixed frame 10. The handle 14 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the threaded rod 13. There are two limiting rods 15, both fixedly connected to the upper side of the fixed pressure plate 12. The upper sides of both limiting rods 15 slide through the fixed frame 10. The two limiting rods 14 are respectively positioned on the threaded rod 15. On the left and right sides of 3, the handle 14 is rotated, which drives the threaded rod 13 to rotate. The threaded rod 13 then moves up and down, which in turn drives the fixed pressure plate 12 to move up and down synchronously. The fixed pressure plate 12 is an arc-shaped plate with a smooth lower surface, so the fixed pressure plate 12 can press against the upper side of the pipe, thus fixing the pipe inside the placement groove 2. At the same time, the two limiting rods 15 are adapted to the fixing frame 10 to limit the fixed pressure plate 12, so that the fixed pressure plate 12 can only slide up and down and cannot rotate.
[0051] Motor assembly 17, drive shaft 18, and rotating roller 19: A rotating structure. Motor assembly 17 is fixedly connected to the front side of worktable 1. The output end of motor assembly 17 is fixedly connected to drive shaft 18. The rear end of drive shaft 18 rotatably extends into the interior of rotating groove 16 and is rotatably connected to the rear wall of rotating groove 16. Rotating roller 19 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of drive shaft 18 and is located inside rotating groove 16. Rotating roller 19 is made of fluororubber, a high-grade rubber with extremely strong heat resistance, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 300 degrees Celsius. The temperature of the area immediately after welding is typically between 200 and 235 degrees Celsius. At the same time, the friction of the rotating roller 19 is relatively high. Consequently, the motor assembly 17 starts and drives the transmission shaft 18 to rotate. The transmission shaft 18 drives the rotating roller 19 to rotate synchronously, which in turn drives the contacting pipe to rotate. Because the lower side of the fixed pressure plate 12 is a smooth surface, the fixed pressure plate 12 has low resistance to the rotation of the pipe, which facilitates the rotation of the rotating roller 19. At the same time, the fluororubber material also prevents the rotating roller 19 from melting when it comes into contact with the pipe, which has a high temperature after welding.
[0052] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
