Detailed Description
It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
The invention provides a multi-state double-wire welding device which is mainly used for solving the problem that a welding wire is frequently broken in an arc striking stage in a welding process.
Referring to fig. 3-5, in one embodiment, the multi-state twin-wire welding apparatus includes: the welding gun comprises a welding gun 50, a first power supply 100, a second power supply 200, a main control circuit 300, a wire feeding circuit 400 and a full-bridge inverter circuit 500, wherein the welding gun 50 is used for installing a first welding wire L1 and a second welding wire L2; the main control circuit 300 is configured to control a bridge arm switching state of the full-bridge inverter circuit 500; the full-bridge inverter circuit 500 is used for correspondingly adjusting the welding wire current and the welding current of the first welding wire L1 and the second welding wire L2 according to the current output by the first power supply 100 and the second power supply 200 under the control of the main control circuit 300; the wire feeding circuit 400 drives the welding gun 50 to feed wire to the workpiece 700 under the control of the main control circuit 300, so as to weld the workpiece 700. The welding guns 50 are two in number, and are a first welding gun for mounting the first welding wire L1 and a second welding gun for mounting the second welding wire L2, respectively.
In this embodiment, the main control circuit 300 is configured to: upon receiving a welding command, controlling the first power source 100 to output power to the first welding wire L1 and controlling the first welding wire L1 to perform a wire feeding operation to the workpiece 700 such that the first welding wire L1 ignites upon contact with the workpiece 700 and an ionization region is formed; after the first welding wire L1 is determined to be stable in arcing, the second welding wire L2 is controlled to perform a wire feeding operation on the workpiece 700, and the second welding wire L2 is in contact with the ionization region of the first welding wire L1 to form an ionization loop; when the current of the second power source 200 is determined to be constant, the power source output to the first welding wire L1 is switched to be output to the second welding wire L2 to ignite the second welding wire L2, and the double-wire arcing action is completed, wherein the time of the power source output to the first welding wire L1 is the same as the time of the power source output to the first welding wire L1, namely, the phase of the power source output to the first welding wire L1 is 180 degrees different from that of the power source output to the second welding wire L2 in the same known period.
Specifically, as will be described in detail below with reference to fig. 4, first, two welding wires L1 and L2 are prepared on the welding gun 50, and in the initial state shown in fig. 4, one welding wire L1, e.g., Step 1, is fed first, so that the welding wire L1 is short-circuited with the workpiece 700 to generate a large current I1, and the welding wire L1 is ignited, and at this time, the welding wires L2 and L1 cannot form a loop, so that there is no Im current, e.g., Step 2. Then, by controlling the I1 current to make the L1 enter a stable arcing state, and then feeding the L2 welding wire to the workpiece 700, a low speed, such as Step 3, can be used, when the welding wire contacts the arc formed by the L1, the L1 and the L2 can form an ionization loop, at this time, Im current is formed, and the ionization loop has a much larger impedance than a short circuit loop, therefore, the Im current is easy to control, a large current without overshoot is generated to blow off the welding wire, at this time, after the second power source 200 current is constant, the power source output to the first welding wire L1 is switched and output to the second welding wire L2 to ignite the second welding wire L2, so that double-wire welding arcing is realized, which is also called as a double-wire three-arc welding process. It can be understood that, in the process of arc striking, the problem that the welding wire is broken in the process of arc striking is avoided because two welding wires are simultaneously contacted with the workpiece 700 to generate large uncontrollable short-circuit current instantly.
In an alternative embodiment, the first power source 100 is a constant voltage dc power source, and the second power source 200 is a constant current dc power source, so as to improve the welding stability and improve the arcing effect.
In this embodiment, optionally, the full-bridge inverter circuit 500 includes a first upper bridge arm electronic switch K1, a first lower bridge arm electronic switch K3, a second upper bridge arm electronic switch K2, and a second lower bridge arm electronic switch K4, where first ends of the first upper bridge arm electronic switch K1 and the second upper bridge arm electronic switch K2 are both connected to the positive electrode of the constant-voltage dc power supply and the positive electrode of the constant-current dc power supply; the second end of the first upper bridge arm electronic switch K1 and the first end of the first lower bridge arm electronic switch K3 are interconnected and are both connected with a first welding gun 50; the second end of the second upper bridge arm electronic switch K2 and the first end of the second lower bridge arm electronic switch K4 are interconnected and are both connected with a second welding gun 50; the second ends of the second upper bridge arm electronic switch K2 and the second lower bridge arm electronic switch K4 are both connected with the negative electrode of the constant-voltage direct-current power supply; the controlled ends of the first upper bridge arm electronic switch K1, the first lower bridge arm electronic switch K3, the second upper bridge arm electronic switch K2 and the second lower bridge arm electronic switch K4 are all connected with the main control circuit 300; the negative electrode of the constant current dc power supply is connected to the welding workpiece 700.
In this embodiment, the controlling the first power source 100 to output power to the first welding wire L1 specifically includes: and controlling the first upper bridge arm electronic switch K1 and the second lower bridge arm electronic switch K4 to be opened, and controlling the second upper bridge arm electronic switch K2 and the first lower bridge arm electronic switch K3 to be turned off. When the first upper arm electronic switch K1 and the second lower arm electronic switch K4 are turned on, the first power source 100 outputs power to the first bonding wire L1.
In this embodiment, the switching the power output to the first bonding wire L1 to the second bonding wire L2 specifically includes: and controlling the first upper bridge arm electronic switch K1 and the second lower bridge arm electronic switch K4 to be turned off, and controlling the second upper bridge arm electronic switch K2 and the first lower bridge arm electronic switch K3 to be turned on. When the first upper arm electronic switch K1 and the second lower arm electronic switch K4 are turned off, the power supply to the first bonding wire L1 is cut off, and when the second upper arm electronic switch K2 and the first lower arm electronic switch K3 are turned on, the power supply from the first power supply 100 is supplied to the second bonding wire L2.
The arcing control principle based on the present embodiment is that when the welding machine is working, the welding wire L1 is fed first through the wire feeding circuit 400, and the first power source 100 and the second power source 200 are pulsed simultaneously, and the switches K1 and K4 are turned on. When the L1 wire contacts the workpiece, the first power supply 100 forms a loop, which arcs the L1 wire similar to the normal gas shield welding operation, and the second power supply 200 has no output because the L1 and the L2 fail to form a loop. When the L1 welding wire is detected to be stable in arcing, the wire feeding circuit 400 controls the L2 welding wire to feed, and the second power source 200 forms a loop when the L2 welding wire penetrates into the L1 arc, so that an M arc is generated between the two wires. When the second power source 200 detects a steady current, the system can be considered to be in steady operation, and at this time, the switches K2 and K3 can be controlled to be turned on, and the switches K1 and K4 are turned off, that is, the first power source 100 is switched to supply power to the welding wire L2, so that the welding wire L2 is arcing, and thus, double-wire arcing is realized.
In this embodiment, optionally, the main control circuit 300 is configured to determine that the first welding wire L1 is stable in arcing specifically as:
the voltage of the first power source 100 is detected, and when it is determined that the voltage of the first power source 100 is in the preset voltage interval, it is determined that the arc of the first welding wire L1 is stable. It should be noted that the arc length is proportional to the voltage, and the arc striking length can be known by detecting the voltage of the first power supply 100, so as to further determine whether the arc is stable. Wherein the preset voltage interval corresponds to the approximate length of the striking arc when the striking arc is stable.
In this embodiment, optionally, the second power supply 200 with a constant current specifically includes:
the current of the second power source 200 is detected, and when it is determined that the current of the second power source 200 is in the preset current interval, the current of the second power source 200 is constant. It can be understood that when the second welding wire L2 is in the ionization region formed by the arcing of the first welding wire L1, a current is formed on the second welding wire L2, and since the second power supply 200 is a constant current power supply, after the arcing is stabilized, the current is not influenced by the arcing fluctuation any more, the current of the second power supply 200 gradually tends to be constant, and at the moment, the arcing of the second welding wire L2 is controlled, the current is easy to control, and the arc can not be broken. Wherein the preset voltage interval corresponds to the current of the second power supply 200 when the arc is stable.
In this embodiment, optionally, the main control circuit 300 is configured to control the second welding wire L2 to perform the wire feeding operation on the workpiece 700 at a speed greater than 1.5 m/min and less than 24 m/min. As the speed becomes slower, the current becomes more stable and the second wire L2 is less likely to explode and strike the arc when it approaches the ionization region of the first wire L1.
The invention also provides an arc starting control method of the multi-state double-wire welding device, wherein the multi-state double-wire welding device can be a hardware part of the multi-state double-wire welding device, and can also be a multi-state double-wire welding device with other different hardware structures, and the invention is not limited in the embodiment.
Referring to fig. 3 to 6, in an embodiment, the arc starting control method of the multi-state twin-wire welding device comprises the following steps:
step S10, preparing a first welding wire L1 and a second welding wire L2 on the welding gun 50 of the multi-state twin-wire welding device;
step S20, outputting power to the first welding wire L1 by the multi-state double-wire welding device when receiving a welding instruction, and controlling the first welding wire L1 to perform wire feeding operation on the workpiece 700, so that the first welding wire L1 is ignited when contacting the workpiece 700, and an ionization region is formed;
step S30, after the first welding wire L1 is determined to be stable in arcing, the second welding wire L2 is controlled to perform wire feeding operation on the workpiece 700, and the second welding wire L2 is made to contact with the ionization region of the first welding wire L1 to form an ionization loop;
and step S40, when the power current is determined to be constant, switching the power output to the first welding wire L1 to output to the second welding wire L2 to ignite the second welding wire L2, and completing the double-wire arcing action.
In this embodiment, the power output to the first wire L1 is the same as the power output to the first wire L1, i.e., the power output to the first wire L1 and the power output to the second wire L2 are different in phase by 180 degrees in the same known period.
Specifically, as will be described in detail below with reference to fig. 2, first, two welding wires L1 and L2 are prepared on the welding gun 50, and in an initial state shown in fig. 2, one welding wire L1, e.g., Step 1, is fed first, so that the welding wire L1 is short-circuited with the workpiece 700 to generate a large current I1, and the welding wire L1 is ignited, and at this time, the welding wires L2 and L1 cannot form a loop, so that there is no Im current, e.g., Step 2. Then, by controlling the I1 current to make the L1 enter a stable arcing state, and then feeding the L2 welding wire to the workpiece 700, a low speed, such as Step 3, can be used, when the welding wire contacts the arc formed by the L1, the L1 and the L2 can form an ionization loop, at this time, Im current is formed, and the ionization loop has a much larger impedance than a short circuit loop, therefore, the Im current is easy to control, a large current without overshoot is generated to blow off the welding wire, at this time, after the second power source 200 current is constant, the power source output to the first welding wire L1 is switched and output to the second welding wire L2 to ignite the second welding wire L2, so that double-wire welding arcing is realized, which is also called as a double-wire three-arc welding process. It can be understood that, in the process of arc striking, the problem that the welding wire is broken in the process of arc striking is avoided because two welding wires are simultaneously contacted with the workpiece 700 to generate large uncontrollable short-circuit current instantly.
In this embodiment, optionally, the determining that the first welding wire L1 is stable in arcing specifically includes:
when the power supply voltage of the multi-state twin-wire welding device is determined to be in the preset voltage interval, the first welding wire L1 is determined to be stable in arcing. It should be noted that the arc length is proportional to the voltage, and the arc striking length can be known by detecting the voltage of the first power supply 100, so as to further determine whether the arc is stable. Wherein the preset voltage interval corresponds to the approximate length of the striking arc when the striking arc is stable.
In this embodiment, optionally, the determining that the power supply current is constant specifically includes:
and when the power supply current of the multi-state double-wire welding device is determined to be in a preset current interval, determining that the power supply current is constant. It can be understood that when the second welding wire L2 is in the ionization region formed by the arcing of the first welding wire L1, a current is formed on the second welding wire L2, and since the second power supply 200 is a constant current power supply, after the arcing is stabilized, the current is not influenced by the arcing fluctuation any more, the current of the second power supply 200 gradually tends to be constant, and at the moment, the arcing of the second welding wire L2 is controlled, the current is easy to control, and the arc can not be broken. Wherein the preset voltage interval corresponds to the current of the second power supply 200 when the arc is stable.
In an alternative embodiment, the controlling the second welding wire L2 to perform the wire feeding operation on the workpiece 700 includes:
the second welding wire L2 is controlled to perform a wire feeding operation to the workpiece 700 at a first preset speed, which is greater than 1.5 m/min and less than 24 m/min. Note that, as the speed is lower, the current becomes more stable and the explosion arc is less likely to occur when the second wire L2 approaches the ionization region of the first wire L1.
