Description

Automatic grinding device for resistance spot welding electrode
Technical Field
The invention relates to special process equipment for grinding a welding electrode in a resistance spot welding process, in particular to a grinding device special for automatically grinding the electrode of a linear motion welding tongs or a fixed spot welder in the resistance spot welding process.
Background
In the process of the continuous spot welding process, under the circulation action of severe working loads such as high temperature, high pressure and the like, the diameter and the components of the working surface of the electrode, the contact area between the surface of the electrode and the surface of a workpiece, contact resistance, contact thermal resistance and the like are continuously changed along with the increase of the ordinal number of a welding point, the relation between the total resistance value of spot welding joints and the distribution proportion of the resistance along the thickness direction of the plate is dynamically changed through a series of changes, the resistance heat generated between the joints is continuously redistributed again along with the change of the distribution proportion of the resistance, and the quality of the welding point is influenced in different degrees according to different relations of the redistribution proportions of the heat. In order to reduce the substantial adverse effect on the quality of a welding spot caused by overlarge change of the surface state of the electrode, the working surface of the electrode is periodically ground in production, so that the aim of restricting the quality dispersion of the welding spot within an allowable range is fulfilled by a precautionary measure of limiting the diameter of the electrode and the surface state of the electrode within a certain fluctuation range.
The electrode coping device is divided into a manual coping device and an automatic coping device; the price difference is very different because of different product types. The electrode grinding mainly aims to achieve the following purposes: firstly, the diameter of the working surface of the electrode which is enlarged is restored to the initial set value, namely the diameter of the conductive surface of the electrode is limited to fluctuate in the two electrode coping periods, and necessary conditions are created for ensuring the relative balance of the feeding and heat conducting cross section areas in the welding nugget forming process; and secondly, removing various non-electrode raw materials formed on the working surface of the electrode in the spot welding process, including an alloy layer, an attachment layer and the like, and simultaneously trimming the working surfaces of the two electrodes to be parallel to the surface of the workpiece, so as to ensure that the contact resistance, the process additional resistance, the effective feed cross section area and the like between the working surface of the electrode and the surface of the workpiece fluctuate within a limited range to the maximum extent, reduce fluctuation of various welding boundary conditions, and alleviate adverse effects on welding point quality caused by temperature field transfer and the like. When the manual grinding device is used, people's experience is needed, the consistency and the correspondence of the diameters of the working surfaces of the two small electrodes which are placed in a space state are ensured, and meanwhile, the parallel relation of the ground electrode surfaces relative to the surfaces of workpieces which are still at other positions at the moment is ensured, so that the manual grinding device is difficult to work. The automatic electrode sharpening device in the prior art mainly has the following defects:
(1) When the automatic electrode coping device works, an integral cutting tool with cutting edges on two sides and an electrode axis as a rotating shaft is coaxially and commonly clamped by the working surfaces of the upper electrode and the lower electrode to be coped, relatively constant electrode pressure always acts on the cutting edges on two sides of the cutting tool, and the cutting and coping amount of the electrode at each time is jointly determined by three parameters such as the rotating speed of the cutting edges, the electrode pressure and the coping time, which are common characteristics of the electrode coping device in working, and various negative processing attributes are generated according to the section (2).
(2) The automatic electrode coping device in the prior art has various negative attributes determined by the common working principle: firstly, the cutting tool rotates on a fixed plane by taking an electrode axis as an axis; because a grinding amount displacement control measure is not adopted, a theoretical track line of the electrode working surface processing has a helix angle, and the parallelism between the surfaces of two grinded electrodes and the surface of a workpiece cannot be ensured; secondly, in order to reduce the adverse effect of dynamic load on the impact of the cutting edge, a working mode that the cutting edge starts to rotate after electrode pressure is stably established on the cutting edge is mostly adopted, namely the cutting edge system carries starting under the action of great electrode pressure and the rotating speed is increased from zero moment to the maximum working rotating speed, and the impact on the cutting edge is great; thirdly, the cutting linear velocity of the cutting edge changes from V = Vmax to V =0 from the outer diameter of the electrode to the axis of the electrode, namely the cutting acceleration and the cutting linear velocity of the outer diameter part of the electrode are the maximum, and the impact action on the cutting edge is the strongest; within a certain radius range from the axis of the electrode, as the cutting linear velocity is less than the critical cutting velocity, no cutting effect is generated on the surface of the electrode, the stripping between the electrode material to be cut and the surface of the electrode in the area is the comprehensive result of the superposition of the rotary rolling and the rotary tearing of the cutting edge, and certain negative effects are generated on the uniformity, the conductive capability, the service life of the cutting edge and the like of the electrode material on the surface of the electrode; fourthly, in order to remove the metal to be cut at the position of the axis of the electrode, the length of the cutting edge must pass through the axis in the design of the length of the cutting edge by considering the inevitable factors of repeated positioning precision error of the electrode, necessary fit clearance for the rotation of the cutting tool and the like, and the local cutting edge exceeding the axis bears the adverse working conditions of cutting by a counter blade, hard extrusion and the like in the cutting process, so that the service life of the cutting edge is extremely unfavorable; fifthly, the repeated positioning error precision causes the deviation of a pressure center, the deviation of the pressure center utilizes the fit clearance to the maximum extent to enable the grinding surface of the electrode to form a certain processing deflection angle relative to the surface of the workpiece, the non-parallelism between the working surface of the electrode and the surface of the workpiece is aggravated, and then the relative stability of the feeding cross section area of the electrode and the quality of welding spots are adversely affected.
(3) The cutting force is established by utilizing the electrode pressure and the cutting edge rotating speed, the grinding amount is determined by the matching relation of three parameters such as the electrode pressure, the cutting edge rotating speed, the grinding time and the like, the grinding cutting amount is not controlled by the relative displacement between the surface to be repaired of the electrode and the cutting edge during grinding, and the excessive cutting of the electrode material is difficult to be effectively controlled.
(4) The electrode grinding machine is only suitable for grinding the electrode of the linear motion type welding tongs in the robot welding tongs.

(2) By changing the working principle of the cutting tool in the electrode grinding process, the method not only creates implementation conditions for using the cutting tool with multiple cutting edges and improving the sharpness of the cutting edges of the cutting tool, but also creates necessary conditions for further reducing the cutting stress of the cutting tool in the electrode grinding process.

The cutting displacement moving system is another important support system for realizing principle innovation of the automatic electrode coping device, and the cutting displacement moving system works in the following description mode:
the cutting displacement moving system comprises the following components in sequence from a power source: the servo motor 8, the speed reducer 7, the power input gear 16 and the transition gear 17 assembled at the two side shaft ends of the same rotating shaft 40; the two transition gears 17 each perform power transmission of the one-side cutting displacement moving mechanism. Wherein, the transition gear 17 positioned at the upper part of the rib plate of the main frame body 2 is meshed with the gear in the upper circular cam gear ring 23; in the rotating process of the upper circular cam gear ring 23, the circular cam part and the circular cam part of the upper cam disc 14 form a sliding fit pair; because the pair of keys 18 has a function of limiting the rotation of the upper cam disk 14, the upper cam disk 14 can only move in the axial direction according to the lift of the cam working pair formed by the change of the rotation angle of the upper ring cam ring gear 23 in response to the rotation of the upper ring cam ring gear 23. Because the subdivision step angle of the servo electrode 8 is very small, a series of elements jointly contribute to the rotation of the corresponding servo motor 8 from the gradual speed reduction function between the large speed reduction ratio speed reducer 7 and the power input gear 16 and the gradual speed reduction function between the upper circular ring cam gear ring 23 and the matching relation between the upper circular ring cam gear ring 23 and the small lift angle circular ring cam inclined plane between the upper convex wheel discs 14 and the like, and the upper convex wheel discs 14 move slowly along the axial direction according to the total speed reduction ratio relation. In the working process, the outer surface of the upper convex wheel disc 14 is also a positioning reference surface for grinding the upper electrode, and the low-speed movement speed of the upper convex wheel disc along the axial direction is also equal to the approaching speed of the surface to be ground of the electrode to the edge of the grinder; through controlling the rotating angle of each working of the servo motor 8, the axial displacement control of the upper convex wheel disc 14 can be realized, and the purpose of positioning, moving and grinding the upper electrode is also realized; the cutting speed during electrode coping corresponds to the axial movement speed of the upper convex wheel disc 14; the axial displacement of the upper convex wheel disc 14 corresponding to each revolution of the cutter is also the maximum inclination angle which can be theoretically generated when the sharpening device cuts the surface of the electrode; during the program design, when the upper convex wheel disc 14 moves to the grinding and cutting limit position every time along the axial direction, the cutter still continues to revolve for a plurality of turns, so the theoretical machining inclination angle does not exist during the actual electrode grinding, and the planeness of the electrode working surface and the parallelism between the electrode working surface and the workpiece surface and the like are ensured while the positioning, shifting and cutting of the upper electrode surface are realized.
The power transmission mode of the other side cutting displacement moving system is completely the same as that of the main frame body 2, and the other side cutting displacement moving system comprises a transition gear 17 arranged at the lower part of a rib plate of the main frame body 2, a lower circular ring cam gear ring 30, a pair of keys 18 and a lower cam disc 34. Except that the lead angles of the cam inclined planes in the lower circular cam ring gear 30 and the lower cam disc 34 and the lead angles of the upper cam ring gear 23 and the upper cam disc 14 are in a mirror image relationship, the other parts of the structures of the parts are completely the same; when the same input power servo motor 8 is operated in rotation, the surfaces of the lower convex discs 34 and the surfaces of the upper convex discs 14 move at the same speed but in opposite directions. Thereby realizing the positioning and cutting of the surface of the lower electrode.
The working process of the cutting displacement moving system enables the datum planes of the upper convex wheel disc (14) and the lower convex wheel disc (34) which are respectively arranged at the two sides to move in the same axial direction, namely, the grinding lengths of the working surfaces of the electrodes at the two sides are ensured to be equal.
