The pressure change means that when the follower component contacts the rugged region on the surface of the workpiece, the protrusion will have a force for jacking up the follower 323 in the follower component, and when the follower encounters the concavity, the force is caused by gravity to slide the follower 323 into the groove, so that the follower 323 receives forces of different magnitudes when encountering the rugged region.

The adjusting mechanism comprises a balance valve 311, an air cylinder 312 and an air passage joint 313, wherein the balance valve 311 is installed on the supporting seat 1, the air cylinder 312 is installed on the supporting seat 1, and the air passage joint 313 is respectively connected with the air cylinder 312 and the balance valve 311.

With continued reference to fig. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, the follower 323 is mounted on the cross slide 322. The universal joint 324 is mounted on the first mounting plate 321, and the tie rod of the cylinder 312 and the universal joint 324 are connected to each other. The mounting block 325 is mounted on the first mounting plate 321, the universal joint 324 is mounted on the mounting block 325, and the cylinder 312 and the mounting block 325 are located on the same plane, so that the force of the mounting block 325 on the cylinder 312 through the universal joint 324 and the pull rod of the cylinder 312 are located on the same straight line, and the force generated by the mounting block 325 on the universal joint 324 can be more timely and accurately acted on the pull rod of the cylinder 312. The second mounting plate and the cross slide 322 are connected to each other, the follower 323 and the second mounting plate are connected to each other, and the follower 323 is located between the cross slide 322 and the welding mechanism 2. The second mounting plate may include a follower mounting bracket 3261 and a follower mounting plate 3262, the follower mounting bracket 3261 and the cross slide 322 being interconnected, the brackets in the follower mounting plate 3262 and the follower 323 being interconnected by the screw 6. The follower 323 includes a bracket mounted to the second mounting plate and a tracking wheel rotatably mounted to the bracket, such as the tracking wheel is coupled to the bracket via a shaft, and the tracking wheel is rotatable relative to the shaft. The weld joint tracking welding system provided by the embodiment of the invention can further comprise a track, wherein the track is arranged on the supporting seat 1, and the follow-up mechanism is arranged on the track, so that the follow-up mechanism can move along the track. If the track may include a guide rail 41 and a slider 42, the slider 42 and the guide rail 41 are matched with each other, and the slider 42 may slide on the guide rail 41 by mounting the guide rail 41 on the support base 1, so that the carriage 33 mounted on the slider 42 can move with respect to the support base 1.
Specifically, the adjusting mechanism includes a balance valve 311, a cylinder 312, and a gas path joint 313, the cylinder 312 is fixed to the support base 1, a rod of the cylinder 312 and a universal joint 324 are connected to each other, the universal joint 324 and a mounting block 325 are connected, and when gas is inputted or outputted to the inside of the cylinder 312 through an external gas box, pressure generated in the inside of the cylinder 312 can act on a follower 323 through the rod of the cylinder 312, the universal joint 324, and the carriage 33. The balance valve 311 is fixed on the support base 1, the balance valve 311 is communicated with the cylinder 312 through the air passage joint 313, the air passage joint 313 is arranged on the cylinder 312, and the air passage joint 313 and the balance valve 311 are communicated with each other. Since the internal pressure of the cylinder 312 can be maintained in a constant state at the balance valve 311, that is, the internal pressure of the cylinder 312 is at a certain constant value (or within a preset fixed value range). The pull rod of the air cylinder 312 is extended or retracted, so that the welding head can be driven to adjust the welding position, and the welding spot is always positioned on the welding seam. If the welding surface of the welding seam of the welding workpiece is uneven, the balance valve 311 can enable the internal pressure of the air cylinder 312 to be in a constant state all the time, so that the pull rod of the air cylinder 312 is forced to extend or retract, the adjustment of the welding position of the welding head is driven, and the welding head moves along the position of the welding seam.
It should be noted that the follower mechanism includes a first mounting plate 321, a cross sliding table 322, a follower 323, a universal joint 324, a mounting block 325 and a second mounting plate, and the welding head and the mounting bracket of the cross sliding table 322 are both fixed on the slide carriage 33, i.e. the slide carriage 33 can drive the welding head and the cross sliding table 322 to move together. The guide rail 41 is fixed on the supporting seat 1, the baffle 5 is fixed on the supporting seat 1, one surface of the slide carriage 33 is connected with the sliding block 42 and then is installed above the guide rail 41, the other surface of the slide carriage 33 is connected with the installation block 325, the installation block 325 is connected with the pull rod of the air cylinder 312 through the universal joint 324, and after the pull rod of the air cylinder 312 is connected with the universal joint 324, the slide carriage 33 can be driven to slide by pushing the universal joint 324. The follower 323 is mounted on a follower mounting plate 3262 and the pressure of the cylinder 312 causes the follower 323 to compress the outer surface of the weld workpiece. When the tracking wheel in the follower 323 rolls along the outer surface of the welding seam of the workpiece, the pressure exerted by the tracking wheel is fed back to the inside of the cylinder 312 through the pull rod of the cylinder 312, and the pressure in the cylinder 312 is ensured to be unchanged, and the pressure variation exerted by the tracking wheel can be balanced through the fact that the pull rod of the cylinder 312 extends out a little bit or retracts a little bit, so that the welding head can be adjusted to the welding position along with the movement of the pull rod.
Meanwhile, one surface of the cross sliding table 322 is fixed on a mounting bracket of the cross sliding table 322, the other surface of the cross sliding table 322 is fixed on a follower mounting bracket 3261 through a screw 6, and a follower mounting plate 3262 is fixed on the follower 323 bracket. Since the follower mounting bracket 3261 is fixed on the follower mounting plate 3262 by the screw 6, the follower mounting bracket 3261 and the cross sliding table 322 are connected to each other, the follower 323 can be moved in a leftward or rightward direction in a horizontal plane by rotating the transverse adjustment handle 3221 of the cross sliding table 322, that is, the size of a gap between the follower 323 and a welding head in the welding mechanism 2 can be adjusted by rotating the transverse adjustment handle 3221 of the cross sliding table 322, so that the follower 323 is close to the welding head, or the follower 323 is far from the welding head. The movement of the follower 323 in an upward or downward direction in a vertical direction with respect to the horizontal plane is achieved by rotating the longitudinal adjustment handle 3222 of the cross slide table 322, i.e. by rotating the longitudinal adjustment handle 3222 of the cross slide table 322, the relative position between the follower 323 and the welding head in the welding mechanism 2 in the vertical direction can be adjusted such that the position of the follower 323 is higher than the position of the welding head or such that the position of the follower 323 is lower than the position of the welding head. Thus, the relative positions of the follower 323 and the welding head are adjusted through the cross sliding table 322, so that the follower 323 and the welding head can be suitable for welding workpieces with different sizes, and the adaptability is improved.
During actual operation, the support base 1 is in a fixed position in space and the workpiece can be moved relative to the welding head. Taking the example that the weld joint on the welding surface in the workpiece is circular, the welding head and the tracking wheel in the follower 323 are in point contact with the welding surface of the workpiece, and when the tracking wheel in the follower 323 encounters the uneven welding surface, the force acting on the tracking wheel by the uneven welding surface causes the universal joint 324 to push the pull rod of the air cylinder 312 to move towards or away from the interior of the air cylinder 312, and also causes the first mounting plate 321 to move along the directions of the two ends of the guide rail 41 mounted on the support base 1. Since the tracking wheel in the follower 323 and the weld joint of the welding surface of the workpiece to be welded are abutted against each other, the tracking wheel and the welding head in the follower 323 assume a tandem position with respect to the weld joint. If the welding surface is in an uneven shape, during welding, when the tracking wheel in the follower 323 and the bulge in the welding surface are in contact with each other, the bulge can jack the tracking wheel in the follower 323, at the moment, the force of the tracking wheel in the follower 323 on the universal joint 324 can push the pull rod of the cylinder 312 to move towards the direction close to the inner part of the cylinder 312, the balance valve 311 can keep the pressure in the inner part of the cylinder 312 in a constant state, the balance valve 311 can input gas into the cylinder 312 to force the pull rod to move towards the direction far away from the inner part of the cylinder 312, and the pressure generated in the cylinder 312 is fed back to the tracking wheel in the follower 323 through the pull rod of the cylinder 312 to adjust the position of the tracking wheel, so that the position deviation between the welding head and the welding seam caused by the jack of the tracking wheel in the follower 323 by the bulge is avoided. Or, when the tracking wheel in the follower 323 and the recess in the welding surface contact each other, the tracking wheel in the follower 323 is sunk into the recess, at this time, the force of the tracking wheel in the follower 323 acting on the universal joint 324 pulls the pull rod of the cylinder 312 to move away from the interior of the cylinder 312, and the balance valve 311 can keep the pressure inside the cylinder 312 to be in a constant state, so that the balance valve 311 can exhaust gas from the cylinder 312 to force the pull rod of the cylinder 312 to move towards the interior of the cylinder 312, the pressure generated inside the cylinder 312 is fed back to the tracking wheel in the follower 323 through the pull rod of the cylinder 312, and the position of the tracking wheel is adjusted, so that the position offset between the welding head and the welding seam caused by the fact that the tracking wheel in the follower 323 is slid into the recess is avoided. Through the mode, the fact that the welding head can move along with the circular welding line when the uneven welding surface is encountered is achieved, and the welding point is always located on the circular welding line.
In order to limit the sliding range of the slider 42, the seam tracking welding system according to the embodiment of the present invention further includes a baffle 5, where the baffle 5 is mounted on the support base 1, and the baffle 5 is configured to limit the moving range of the follower mechanism relative to the track, that is, the moving range of the follower mechanism in the direction toward the track.
Specifically, the balance valve 311, the cylinder 312, the guide rail 41, and the baffle 5 are fixed to the support base 1 by screws 6, the air passage joint 313 is attached to the cylinder 312, one surface of the carriage 33 and the slider 42 are connected together, and the slider 42 is attached to the guide rail 41. One side of the carriage 33 is coupled to a mounting block 325. The mounting block 325 is coupled to the cylinder 312 via a universal joint 324. When the cylinder 312 drives the slide carriage 33 to slide, the universal joint 324 can avoid that the slide carriage 33 cannot slide due to the fact that the pull rod of the cylinder 312 and the slide carriage 33 are not completely clamped on the same straight line. The cross sliding table 322 installing support is fixed on the slide carriage 33 through the screw 6 and the pin 7, and the cross sliding table 322 can be fixed on the installing support of the cross sliding table 322 through the screw 6. In the mounting, the follower mounting bracket 3261 may be fixed to the cross slide 322 by the screw 6, the follower 323 may be mounted on the follower mounting plate 3262, and the follower mounting plate 3262 may be fixed to the follower mounting bracket 3261 by the screw 6. Finally, the welding head is mounted on the slide carriage 33 by means of screws 6. When the slider 42 mounted on the carriage 33 slides back and forth in the direction of the both ends of the guide rail 41, the carriage 33 can also drive the follower 323 to slide back and forth in the direction of the both ends of the guide rail 41.
