Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of friction welding technology, and in particular to a cleaning device for friction welding equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Friction welding equipment is widely used in manufacturing due to its high efficiency, energy saving, and stable welding quality. However, dust or foreign objects may accumulate on the fixtures holding the workpiece before friction welding. These dust and foreign objects may originate from dust, metal powder, or other tiny particles in the workshop environment. Furthermore, iron filings generated after friction welding also remain on the workpiece. These fine and sharp iron filings not only affect the quality of subsequent processing but also pose certain safety hazards. Therefore, operators carefully clean the workpiece, fixtures, and the workpiece itself before and after work to ensure a clean and free surface. However, this cleaning process increases downtime and reduces the overall production efficiency of the equipment. Simultaneously, the cleaning process increases physical exertion for operators; prolonged repetitive movements can easily lead to fatigue and even accidents such as falls, posing safety hazards. In addition, due to the complex shape of the workpiece, some hidden areas may be missed, resulting in incomplete cleaning and affecting welding quality and equipment maintenance.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cleaning device for friction welding equipment to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a cleaning device for friction welding equipment. The friction welding equipment includes a welding head 1, a tool holder 2, and a friction welding head. The tool holder 2 has an installation channel along its length. The friction welding head can be detachably installed on the inner wall of the installation channel. The welding head 1 can drive the tool holder 2 to move, thereby driving the friction welding head to perform friction welding. The welding head 1 has an air outlet for discharging compressed air. The cleaning device for the friction welding equipment includes a connecting pipe 3. An air inlet is opened on the outer wall of the tool holder 2, and the air inlet connects to the installation channel. The connecting pipe 3 connects the air outlet and the air inlet. With this configuration, the welding head 1 can drive the tool holder 2 to move along a set trajectory, and discharge compressed air sequentially through the air outlet, connecting pipe 3, air inlet, and installation channel to blow away the tooling and workpiece surface, achieving all-round cleaning. This can effectively improve the cleaning efficiency of the friction welding equipment, reduce labor costs, and thus form an integrated "welding-cleaning" device, greatly improving production efficiency.

[0027] Optionally, the cleaning device of the friction welding equipment also includes an air guide pipe 4, which is vertically arranged with one end connected to the mounting hole and the other end used to discharge compressed air. Furthermore, the air guide pipe 4 is made of steel.

Simultaneously, the steel component possesses excellent high-temperature resistance and wear resistance, effectively extending its service life.

[0028] Specifically, this embodiment provides the following exemplary technical solution: the cleaning device of the friction welding equipment further includes a first quick-change plug 5, which is detachably installed on the tool holder 2, and one end of the connecting tube 3 is connected to the first quick-change plug 5.

[0029] Optionally, the cleaning device of the friction welding equipment also includes a second quick-change plug 6, which is detachably installed on the welding head 1, and the other end of the connecting pipe 3 is connected to the second quick-change plug 6. Furthermore, the second quick-change plug 6 is threadedly connected to the welding head 1. This configuration, introducing the first quick-change plug 5 and the second quick-change plug 6, along with the threaded connection structure, allows for quick assembly and disassembly, facilitating operator maintenance and improving assembly efficiency. Simultaneously, the threaded connection structure effectively resists mechanical vibration, preventing plug loosening, making it suitable for high-pressure or dynamic operating conditions, and exhibiting good vibration resistance.

[0030] Optionally, the friction welding equipment also includes a spindle head 7 and a drive mechanism. The spindle head 7 is mounted on the welding head 1, and the drive mechanism is connected to the spindle head 7 and can drive the spindle head 7 to rotate. The tool holder 2 is mounted on the spindle head 7. Further, the drive mechanism is a servo drive motor.

[0031] Optionally, the cleaning device of the friction welding equipment also includes a control system. Based on a set computer program, the control system can drive the welding head 1 to move along a preset trajectory so that the compressed air flow covers the area where the tooling and workpieces accumulate residue, thereby achieving automatic cleaning and greatly improving the degree of automation.

[0032] Optionally, the cleaning device of the friction welding equipment also includes a pneumatic valve, which is located at the air outlet. The control system can control the pneumatic valve to open or close the air outlet. Furthermore, the pneumatic valve can also adjust the opening degree of the air outlet, thereby controlling and adjusting the speed and concentration of the exhaust airflow to adapt to the removal of residues of different volumes.
