Detailed description of the invention
In order better to describe technical scheme of the present invention and beneficial effect, next by reference to the accompanying drawingsWith the further detailed statement of embodiment.
Embodiment 1 the invention discloses a kind of fillet welding seam tracking based on ultrasonic wave oscillatory scanningSystem and method, it comprises ultrasonic sensor, discrete signal collection and treating apparatus, dataProcess of fitting treatment device, correction control apparatus, device for detecting temperature, actuating unit, welding torch, welderingConnect power supply etc. The present invention utilizes the sweep signal of ultrasonic sensor output, in conjunction with temperature monitoringThe temperature characterisitic of device, in data fitting processor adopting weighted least-squares method identification angle weldingThe heart, the intelligence that correction control apparatus adopts feedforward to add feedback regulates proofreaies and correct departure, holdsLuggage is put according to correcting feature and is driven welding torch to carry out fillet welding seam tracking, consults Fig. 1-Fig. 4.
The invention discloses a kind of fillet welding seam tracking system and side based on ultrasonic wave oscillatory scanningMethod, its concrete implementation step is as follows:
The first step: ultrasonic transmitter 4 is arranged on the rotating shaft 3 being driven by servomotor 1,Servomotor 1 carries out ultrasonic transmitter 4 through deceleration device 2 deceleration rear drive rotating shafts 3Oscillatory scanning, ultrasonic receiver 5 receives sweep signal simultaneously, as shown in Figure 3, ultrasonic waveSensor does oscillatory scanning, output scanning signal scanning weld seam information, and scanning angle is α, ginsengRead Fig. 3.
Second step: the collecting part of discrete signal collection and treating apparatus is according to ultrasonic receiverThe sweep signal of accepting is done even angle discrete sampling, gathers N discrete sweep signal, successivelyBe recorded as X1、X2、X3……Xn, processing section is carried out filtering to this N sampled signal and is putLarge processing, to carry out follow-up data fitting processing.
The 3rd step: the sampled signal after filter amplifying processing is transported to data fitting treating apparatusCarry out calculation process. Because SVEL is relevant with field of welding temperature, need to adopt temperature-compensatingMode guarantee data fitting precisely.
