[0002] Argon arc welding equipment is a common type of welding equipment that uses an electric arc between a tungsten electrode and the workpiece to melt the metal and form a weld. In the prior art, most argon arc welding equipment includes a clamping device and a welding torch. The clamping device holds the workpiece and can rotate or move to move the workpiece to the welding torch for welding.
[0003] However, in this type of welding equipment, when the clamping device moves the workpiece, the clamping device has a relatively complex and heavy structure. Combined with the weight of the workpiece itself, this reduces the stability of the workpiece during movement, thereby reducing the positioning accuracy and alignment between the workpiece and the welding torch, and consequently reducing the welding quality and welding efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, there is room for further improvement in existing argon arc welding equipment. Utility Model Content

Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limitations on this application.
[0070] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, see below. Figures 1 to 5 illustrate.
[0071] This application provides an argon arc welding equipment, hereinafter referred to as the welding equipment. This welding equipment is fully automatic and can automatically weld the workpiece.
[0072] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the welding equipment includes a welding torch device 1, a clamping device 2, a displacement device, and a mounting mechanism 6. The mounting mechanism 6 is used to mount the welding torch device 1, the clamping device 2, and the displacement device. The clamping device 2 is used to clamp the workpiece, and the welding torch device 1 is used to weld the workpiece. The displacement device is connected to the welding torch device 1 and is used to drive the welding torch device 1 to move parallel to the axial direction and radial direction, as well as to rotate around the central axis of the clamping device 2, so as to ensure multi-directional welding of the workpiece. In this application, the clamping device 2 is not required to drive the displacement of the workpiece. The welding torch device 1 is used to perform multi-directional welding of the workpiece by displacement. The welding torch device 1 is small in size, lightweight and simple in structure. The displacement does not affect the stability of the workpiece, thereby improving the positioning accuracy and centering between the welding torch and the workpiece, and improving the welding quality and welding efficiency.
[0073] In particular, based on the rotation around the center line, the welding torch device 1 can be finely adjusted parallel to the axial and radial directions, thereby ensuring the positioning accuracy and centering between the welding torch device 1 and the workpiece, and improving the welding quality.
[0074] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the mounting mechanism 6 is further described below; the mounting mechanism 6 includes a fixed base 61, a rotating base 62, a connecting bracket 66, and a fixing column 63, as shown. Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the fixed base 61 is a sleeve structure, the fixed column 63 is a columnar structure, and the fixed base 61, fixed column 63, and rotating base 62 are coaxially arranged. The upper end of the fixed column 63 is fixedly connected to the clamping device 2, and the lower end of the fixed column 63 is connected to the fixed base 61 via a connecting bracket 66, thereby achieving a relatively fixed connection between the clamping device 2 and the fixed base 61, enabling the clamping device 2 to stably clamp the welded parts. The rotating base 62 is sleeved on the outside of the fixed column 63, with a gap between the inner wall of the rotating base 62 and the outer wall of the fixed column 63. The connecting bracket 66 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating base 62, and a bearing assembly 64 is provided between the connecting bracket 66 and the rotating base 62, allowing the rotating base 62 to rotate relative to the fixed base 61. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the welding torch device 1 is connected to the rotating base 62, which in turn enables the rotating base 62 to drive the welding torch device 1 to rotate relative to the clamping device 2, so as to realize the circumferential welding of the workpiece on the clamping device 2 around the central axis.
[0075] In this embodiment, the bearing assembly 64 includes at least two bearings, which are spaced apart along the axial direction; a bearing is provided at both ends of the rotating base 62 to ensure the connection stability between the rotating base 62 and the fixed base 61; the bearings are preferably deep groove ball bearings.
[0076] Among them, such as Figure 5 As shown, the bearing assembly 64 includes a first bearing 641 and a second bearing 642. The first bearing 641 is disposed at one end of the rotating base 62 near the clamping device 2, and the second bearing 642 is disposed at the other end of the rotating base 62. The rotating base 62 is provided with a limiting groove for mounting the first bearing 641. The limiting groove has an L-shaped structure and limits the inner ring of the first bearing 641 radially and axially. The fixed base 61 is provided with a limiting ring groove, which can limit the outer ring of the first bearing 641 axially and radially, thereby ensuring that the first bearing 641 can be stably connected between the rotating base 62 and the fixed base 61, and ensuring the connection stability between the rotating base 62 and the fixed base 61.
[0077] like Figure 5 As shown, the outer side of the rotating base 62 is provided with a mounting groove for mounting the second bearing 642, which is used to limit the inner ring of the second bearing 642 axially and radially; the inner ring of the connecting bracket 66 is provided with a limiting part, the L-shaped annular groove of the limiting part, the limiting part limits the outer ring of the second bearing 642 axially and radially, thereby enabling the second bearing 642 to be stably connected between the rotating base 62 and the connecting bracket 66, and relatively fixed in the radial and axial directions, ensuring the rotational stability of the rotating base 62 around the central axis.
[0078] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the mounting mechanism 6 also includes a rotating sleeve 65, which is sleeved on the outside of the fixed post 63. The rotating sleeve 65 and the fixed base 61 are distributed axially, and the rotating base 62 is located close to the clamping device 2. One end of the rotating sleeve 65 is rotatably connected to the clamping device 2, and the other end is fixedly connected to the fixed base 61, thereby making the rotating sleeve 65 and the fixed base 61 indirectly rotatably connected. A third bearing is provided between the rotating sleeve 65 and the clamping device 2. The rotating sleeve 65 limits the outer ring of the third bearing axially and radially, and the clamping device 2 limits the inner ring of the third bearing axially and radially, thereby enabling the rotating sleeve 65 and the clamping device 2 to be stably rotatably connected through the third bearing.
[0079] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the connecting bracket 66 includes a connecting plate and a connecting frame; the connecting plate has a through hole for the rotating base 62 to pass through, the connecting plate is set inside the fixed base 61, the outer side of the connecting plate is connected to the inner side wall of the fixed base 61, and the inner side wall of the connecting plate is connected to the rotating base 62 through the first bearing 641; the connecting frame has an inverted n-shaped structure, the axial support of the connecting frame is fixedly connected to the connecting plate, and the middle of the radial support of the connecting frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed column 63, thereby connecting the fixed column 63 and the fixed base 61.
[0080] Based on any of the above embodiments, the displacement device will be further described; such as Figures 2 to 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the displacement device includes a rotating mechanism 3, an axial displacement mechanism 4, and a radial displacement mechanism 5; wherein, the rotating mechanism 3 is disposed in the fixed base 61, and the axial displacement mechanism 4 and the radial displacement mechanism 5 are disposed in the rotating sleeve 65. The rotating mechanism 3 is used to drive the welding torch device 1 to rotate around the central axis of the clamping device 2, the axial displacement mechanism 4 is used to drive the welding torch device 1 to translate parallel to the axial direction, and the radial displacement mechanism 5 is used to drive the welding torch device 1 to translate parallel to the radial direction.
[0081] Specifically, such as Figures 2 to 3 , Figure 5As shown, the rotating mechanism 3 includes a rotating drive component 31, a driving gear 32, and a driven gear 33. The fixed part of the rotating drive component 31 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate of the connecting bracket 66. The output end of the rotating drive component 31 can rotate relative to the connecting bracket 66. The output end of the rotating drive component 31 is connected to the driving gear 32. The driven gear 33 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rotating base 62. The driving gear 32 and the driven gear 33 mesh. Then, with the cooperation of the driving gear 32 and the driven gear 33, the power transmitted by the rotating drive component 31 can be transmitted to the rotating base 62 to realize the rotation of the rotating base 62. Then, the rotating base 62 drives the welding torch device 1 to rotate.
[0082] like Figure 3 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the radial displacement mechanism 5 is fixedly connected to the rotating sleeve 65 via a mounting base 7, the fixed part of the axial displacement mechanism 4 is connected to the sliding part of the radial displacement mechanism 5, and the welding torch device 1 is connected to the sliding part of the axial displacement mechanism 4; thereby enabling the radial displacement mechanism 5 to simultaneously drive the axial displacement mechanism 4 and the welding torch device 1 to move radially, while the axial displacement mechanism 4 can independently drive the welding torch device 1 to move axially.
[0083] In another optional embodiment of this application, the axial displacement mechanism 4 is fixedly connected to the rotating sleeve 65 via a mounting base 7, the fixed part of the radial displacement mechanism 5 is connected to the sliding part of the axial displacement mechanism 4, and the welding torch device 1 is connected to the sliding part of the radial displacement mechanism 5; thereby enabling the axial displacement mechanism 4 to simultaneously drive the radial displacement mechanism 5 and the welding torch device 1 to move axially, while the radial displacement mechanism 5 can drive the welding torch device 1 to move radially independently.
[0084] In this application, the rotary drive 31 is a servo motor; the axial displacement mechanism 4 and the radial displacement mechanism 5 are driven by linear drive motors, preferably lead screw motors.
[0085] Based on any of the above embodiments, the welding torch device 1 will be further described; such as Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the welding torch device 1 includes a welding head 11, a wire feeding mechanism 12, and a conveying mechanism. The welding head 11 extends into the rotating sleeve 65 via an L-shaped connecting rod 14 and is connected to the radial displacement mechanism 5 and the axial displacement mechanism 4. This allows the welding head 11 to be indirectly and fixedly connected to the rotating base 62, enabling it to rotate with the rotating base 62 while simultaneously being driven independently by the radial displacement mechanism 5 and the axial displacement mechanism 4. This avoids other devices moving axially or radially together, achieving precise fine-tuning of the welding head 11 and ensuring its positioning accuracy. In this embodiment, the wire feeding mechanism 12 is used to feed welding wire at the welding point to complete the welding; the conveying mechanism is used to supply power to the welding head 11 and deliver argon gas and cooling liquid to ensure the welding head 11 can operate normally.
[0086] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the welding head 11 includes a tungsten needle, an exhaust block 112, and a cooling block 111. The exhaust block 112 is provided with an exhaust channel for argon gas to flow through. The exhaust channel is arranged around the tungsten needle so that argon gas can be exhausted around the tungsten needle to isolate the air around the tungsten needle, stabilize the arc, and ensure welding quality. The cooling block 111 is provided with a cooling channel and an intake channel, which are connected to the exhaust channel. Two connectors are connected to both ends of the cooling channel for liquid inlet or liquid outlet. The intake end of the intake channel is connected to an intake connector for argon gas to enter.
[0087] The conveying mechanism may include both gas-conducting slip rings and liquid-conducting slip rings, or it may only include a water-gas-conducting slip ring 13. In this embodiment, the conveying mechanism includes a water-gas-conducting slip ring 13, which simultaneously conveys electricity, gas, and cooling liquid. Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the water-gas conductive slip ring 13 is sleeved on the outside of the fixed column 63. The water-gas conductive slip ring 13 is rotatably connected to the fixed column 63, but the water-gas conductive slip ring 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating base 62. The water-gas conductive slip ring 13 can transmit electricity, gas and liquid simultaneously, has a high degree of integration, and can reduce the structural complexity of the conveying mechanism. In addition, it can rotate with the welding head 11, thereby avoiding the pipe entanglement when the welding head 11 rotates, and improving the stability of the output of electricity, gas and liquid.
[0088] Specifically, the water-gas conductive slip ring 13 is provided with a gas flow path, a liquid inlet flow path, a liquid return flow path, and a reserved flow path. The gas flow path is used to guide gas, the liquid inlet flow path and the liquid return flow path are used to guide liquid, and the reserved flow path can provide an additional alternative for the liquid flow path. When the liquid inlet flow path or the liquid return flow path is blocked, the reserved flow path can be used instead, thereby ensuring reduced maintenance costs.
[0089] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the conveying mechanism also includes a power connector, an air inlet connector, an air outlet connector, a first liquid inlet connector, a first liquid outlet connector, a second liquid inlet connector, and a second liquid outlet connector. The power connector is located at the axial end of the water-gas conductive slip ring 13 near the welding head 11 and is used to connect to the welding head 11. The air inlet connector is located at the radial end of the water-gas conductive slip ring 13 and is connected to the air inlet end of the gas flow path, enabling it to guide gas into the gas flow path. The air outlet connector is located at the axial end of the water-gas conductive slip ring near the welding head 11 and is connected to the air outlet end of the gas flow path, discharging gas out of the gas flow path to supply gas to the welding torch device 1. The first liquid inlet connector is located at the radial end of the water-gas conductive slip ring 13 and is connected to the air outlet end of the gas flow path, discharging gas into the gas flow path to supply gas to the welding torch device 1. The inlet end of the liquid flow path is connected to guide the fluid into the liquid flow path; the first outlet connector is located at the axial end of the water-air guide slip ring near the welding head 11, and is connected to the outlet end of the liquid flow path, for guiding the cooling liquid in the liquid flow path to the cooling block 111 of the welding head 11; the second inlet connector is located at the axial end of the water-air guide slip ring near the welding head 11, and is connected to the inlet end of the return flow path, for guiding the used cooling liquid in the cooling block 111 of the welding head 11 to the return flow path; the second outlet connector is located at the radial side end of the water-air conductive slip ring 13, and is connected to the outlet end of the return flow path, for guiding the liquid in the return flow path back to the liquid storage location.
[0090] It should be noted that each joint in the conveying mechanism is connected to each joint on the welding head 11 via a corresponding conduit.
[0091] like Figure 4 As shown, the wire feeding mechanism 12 includes a wire feeding nozzle 121 and a wire feeding drive 122. The wire feeding nozzle 121 is used to clamp the welding wire and is connected to the welding head 11. The wire feeding drive 122 is disposed inside the rotating sleeve 65 and is fixedly connected to the rotating sleeve 65. The wire feeding drive 122 is connected to the welding wire and can store the welding wire. The wire feeding drive 122 can drive the welding wire to move towards the welding point to realize automatic supply of welding wire to the welding point.
[0092] Based on any of the above embodiments, the clamping device 2 will be further described; such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the clamping device 2 includes a clamping mounting part 21, a jaw 22, and a clamping drive. The clamping mounting part 21 has an axial through hole for inserting the weldment. The jaw 22 is radially slidably connected to the end face of the clamping mounting part 21 away from the fixed post 63. At least three jaws 22 are provided, and the jaws 22 are distributed at equal intervals along the same circumference for clamping the weldment. The clamping drive is connected to the jaw 22 and is used to drive the jaw 22 to move radially to release or clamp the weldment, so as to ensure the clamping stability of the weldment and improve the welding accuracy and welding quality of the welding equipment.
[0093] It should be noted that in this application, the welding head 11, clamping device 2, rotating sleeve 65, rotating base 62, and water-gas conductive slip ring 13 are arranged sequentially along the axial direction to ensure the high integration of the welding equipment and reduce the total volume occupied.
