[workflow]
The following workflow describing the first embodiment of the present invention with reference to Fig. 5.
Fig. 5 is the workflow of control system of the present invention when welding equipment duty.As shown in Figure 5, in wire feeder side, in step s 11, by TIP 202(welding condition information input unit 21) input welding condition information (welding condition information input step).In step s 12, the welding condition information of input is passed through microcontroller 201(baseband signal generation unit 22) generate low-frequency analog signal (i.e. baseband signal) (baseband signal generation step).Then in step s 13, by microcontroller 201(high frequency carrier modulating unit 23) low-frequency analog signal is carried out from high frequency carrier f1 and f2 modulating (frequency of f1 and f2 is different) (high frequency carrier modulation step), then step S14 is entered, by high frequency carrier f1 and f2 by carrier wave transtation mission circuit 203(carrier wave transmitting element 24) be sent to (carrier wave forwarding step) on power line 9.
Then, in source of welding current side, in the step s 21, carrier wave coupling circuit 301(corresponds to carrier wave receiving element 31) receive high frequency carrier f1 and f2(carrier wave receiving step by power line).Then, in step S22, carrier wave demodulation unit 32 is corresponded to by carrier wave demodulation circuit 302() high frequency carrier is demodulated into low-frequency modulation signal (analog signal) B1 and B2(carrier modulation step).In step S23, B1 and B2 is corresponded to shaping filter unit 33 by plastic filter circuit 303() carry out shaping filter, and outputted to microcontroller 304(corresponding to determining unit 34) (shaping filter step).In step s 24 which, microcontroller 304(corresponds to determining unit 34) determine from the low-frequency modulation signal of shaping filter output the signal (determining step) controlling source of welding current output.Then, in step s 25, microcontroller 304(corresponds to control unit 35) output (rate-determining steps) of the source of welding current is controlled based on the signal determined in step s 24 which.
For the ease of understanding, Fig. 6 shows each waveform corresponding with each step in Fig. 5.As shown in Figure 6, baseband signal is analog signal.
Referring to Fig. 7, the flow process of the determination of the step S25 in Fig. 5 is described.As shown in Figure 7, first, in the step s 100, low-frequency modulation signal B1 and B2 is compared.In step S101, based on the result compared in S100, determine that whether B1 with B2 be consistent.If B1 with B2 consistent ("Yes" in step S101), then enter step S102.In step s 102, B1 or B2 is defined as the signal exported for controlling the source of welding current.If B1 and B2 inconsistent ("No" in step S101), then enter step S103.In step s 103, B1 and B2 is analyzed respectively, to determine the signal controlling source of welding current output.
For the determining step of step S24, can adopt with the following method.
First by com-parison and analysis f1 and f2, stable signal value V is obtained.It is correct for giving tacit consent to one-period, namely or wherein M represents carrier wave f2, and N represents carrier wave f1, and 1 represents the 1st cycle.Judge from second period, even if the period 1 is wrong like this, also can be corrected at once.The whole process judging to correct is described below.
If stable signal value is V, represent the signal value of carrier wave f2 in kth (k>=2) the individual cycle, Δ V mfor the difference of carrier wave f2 kth between cycle and stationary value T, namely
Δ V M = V M K - V - - - ( 1 )
represent the signal value of carrier wave f1 in kth (k>=2) the individual cycle, carrier wave Δ V nfor the difference of carrier wave f1 kth between cycle and stationary value T, namely
Δ V N = V N K - V - - - ( 2 )
Δ v mfor the difference in a carrier wave f2 kth cycle and-1 cycle of kth, namely
Δ v M = V M K - V M K - 1 - - - ( 3 )
Δ v nfor the difference in a carrier wave f1 kth cycle and-1 cycle of kth, namely
Δ v N = V N K - V N K - 1 - - - ( 4 )
When not considering that two paths of signals is subject to same interference simultaneously,
If (Δ V m=Δ V n), so (f2 and f1 signal is all effective, directly the value of f1 or f2 can be assigned to stationary value V);
If (Δ V m=0, Δ V n≠ 0), so (f2 is effective, directly the value of f2 can be assigned to stationary value V);
If (Δ V m≠ 0, Δ V n=0), so (f1 is effective, directly the value of f1 can be assigned to stationary value V);
If (Δ V m≠ 0, Δ V n≠ 0, Δ v m≠ Δ v n), so (need to judge Δ v mwith Δ v n);
If (Δ v m=0), so (get f2 effective, directly the value of f2 is assigned to stationary value V);
If (Δ v n=0), so (get f1 effective, directly the value of f1 is assigned to stationary value V).
In the above description, even if assuming that the harmonic wave that when inverter type welder works, output produces has interference to f1 or f2, but carrier wave receiving element still can receive f1 and f2, and a meeting just in f1 or f2 makes a mistake.
In addition, also there is the situation that two paths of signals is disturbed simultaneously, wherein for only in the situation that a certain cycle all makes a mistake, when adopting said method, Δ V m≠ 0, Δ V n≠ 0, Δ v m≠ Δ v n≠ 0, now can maintain original stationary value V constant, like this when next cycle signal is correct, can work on.
But in fact, also there is the interference of the harmonic wave that output produces when inverter type welder works, f1 or f2 Zhong mono-tunnel is caused not receive completely, in the case, in determining step, by the signal being defined as exporting for controlling the source of welding current from the low-frequency modulation signal after an other road high-frequency signal demodulation, shaping output.
In a first embodiment, in order to increase the accuracy determined, carrier wave transmitting element 31 sends repeatedly (multiple cycle) continuously by based on each the road high frequency carrier in the Multi-channel high-frequency carrier wave of same modulates baseband signals, determining unit 34 determines the signal of the output controlling the described source of welding current for the low-frequency modulation signal that each shaping filter unit 33 exports, the final result that control unit 35 is repeatedly determined based on described determining unit, controls the output of the described source of welding current.
Such as, assuming that have sent three times based on each road high frequency carrier of same baseband signal, in second and third time (second and third cycle), two-way high frequency carrier is all interfered and occurs mistake, then in determining step, the determination result of first time (period 1) the most at last, is defined as the signal exported for controlling the source of welding current, and is abandoned by the low-frequency modulation signal of second and third output.Or assuming that in first time (period 1), two-way high frequency carrier is all interfered and occurs mistake, then in determining step, the determination result of second and third time the most at last, is defined as the signal exported for controlling the source of welding current.
[the second embodiment]

Then, in source of welding current side, in step s 51, carrier wave coupling circuit 301(carrier wave receiving element 31) receive high frequency carrier f3 and f4(carrier wave receiving step by power line 9), then, in step S52, correspond to carrier wave demodulation unit 32 by carrier wave demodulation circuit 302() high frequency carrier is demodulated into low-frequency modulation signal B3 and B4(carrier wave demodulation step).In step S53, B3 and B4 is corresponded to shaping filter unit 33 by plastic filter circuit 303() carry out shaping filter, and outputted to microcontroller 304(shaping filter step).In step S54, microcontroller 304(corresponds to determining unit 34) determine the signal (determining step) controlling source of welding current output, then, in step S55, microcontroller 304(corresponds to control unit 35) relevant reference value (such as gas, string diameter) (rate-determining steps) that adopts when the signal determined being saved as the output controlling the source of welding current.
For the ease of understanding, Fig. 9 shows each waveform corresponding with each step in Fig. 8.As shown in Figure 9, baseband signal is data signal.
In the present embodiment, due in the standby state, welding condition information is sent to second control device by data signal from first control device, like this when welding job, only need to send a small amount of welding condition information, can increase work efficiency, be conducive to the stability and the real-time that ensure welding process.
