Abstract
Description
More particularly, the present invention relates to a welding gun for automatically welding a stud to a base material, and more particularly, to a welding gun that generates an arc between an air cylinder for moving the stud received in the chuck and a lower portion of the chuck, The present invention relates to a stud welding gun using an actuator capable of increasing the service life by using an actuator for lifting the air cylinder and stably welding the stud to the base material.
In general, stud welding refers to welding in which an arc is generated by using a stud or the like as an electrode, and the stud is pressed on the base material in a molten state.
The studs are typically relatively short-length steel rods that have threads at one end and are welded or welded to the base material, such as a plate or part, where the thread is not formed, and other plates or parts can be joined using threads . It is also referred to as a stud bolt in that a thread is formed on one side.
Such studs are being developed in a variety of forms, particularly stud welders that automatically weld studs as they are consumed in large quantities in automotive assembly processes. The stud welding gun can continuously weld studs to a plurality of points previously set on the base material while moving horizontally relative to the base material, which is usually a flat plate. It is usually said that the stud welding gun is placed upright in the vertical direction by horizontally arranging the base material, the stud is held in the lower chuck of the stud welding gun and then raised or lowered. It is desirable to express the forward / backward operation of the welding gun forward or backward with respect to the base material by raising and lowering it by operating the three axes by mounting the robot arm on the robot arm.
The stud welding gun according to the related art includes a large-sized gun base, a cylindrical housing fixed by the gun base, and a pushing rod which is installed inside the housing so as to be movable back and forth, An adapter provided at a front of the gun body and having a chuck for gripping the stud according to advancement of the pushing rod; a lifting module installed at the rear of the gun body for advancing or retracting the gun body; A main spring interposed between the gun body and the lifting module, and a stud supply unit for supplying the stud into the adapter.
An arc current flows through a gun body made of a conductive metal, a pushing rod, an adapter, and a chuck through an electric wire connected to a rear end of the gun body, thereby melting the contact surface of the stud held by the chuck.
The stud welding process using the above-described stud welding process is as follows: 1) contact, 2) backward and induced arc generation, 3) main arc generation, and 4) pressing by advancing.
First, the stud is automatically supplied to the inside of the adapter through the stud supply unit before the 1) contact process is performed, and the pushing rod provided inside the gun body advances by the provision of pneumatic pressure. As the pushing rod advances, the stud is held on the chuck of the adapter, and the stud is brought into contact with the base material while the stud welding gun is close to the base material.
1) In a state where the stud is initially in contact with the base material, the pushing rod is advanced to the front of the gun body, and the tip of the pushing rod is in contact with the rear end of the stud. In this case, regardless of whether the contact surface of the base material to which the stud is contacted is flat or embossed, the forward and backward strokes of the pushing rod by the air pressure are the same as the fully moved strokes. However, if there is embossing on the contact surface of the base material, the advance stroke by the pneumatic pressure of the pushing rod is completely performed, and the main body itself is pushed backward by the height of the embossing so that the main spring is compressed.
2) The lifting module operates from the process of backward and induced arc generation. If there is a gap between the stud and the base material before the arc is generated, no arc is generated. However, if the main arc is directly generated in the state where the stud and the base material are in contact with each other, the stud is not melted properly and the stud is welded to the base material with defects. Therefore, in the contact state, the induction arc is generated first, and the gun body is operated by operating the lifting module to make the optimal arc generating distance where the melting of the stud is optimized by the main arc described later. At this time, the optimum arc generation distance is about 1.5 mm as a widely known distance based on many experiments and experiences, and the lifting module is to pull back the gun body by 1.5 mm. The induced arc current is about 20A so that an arc is maintained between the stud and the base material before generating a main arc, which will be described later.
3) The main arc generation process is performed by the lifting module after the induction arc is generated, and the gun body is backward by 1.5 mm, that is, by the optimum arc generating distance. At this time, the main arc current flows from 200A to 1800A. As the main arc is generated, the contact surface of the stud and a part of the contact surface of the facing base material are melted.
4) In the pressing process by forward movement, when the main arc flows for a predetermined time and the contact surface of the stud and the base material is melted, when the lifting module is operated to advance the gun body, the molten contact surface of the stud is welded to the contact surface of the base material, Is completed.
As described in Korean Patent Registration No. 0729082, the conventional stud welding welding method as described above is a method in which a stud is brought into contact with a surface of a base material to fix a back body of the gun body using a lifting module, The main body is moved backward by actuating the lifting module, and then the stud body is welded due to the action of advancing the gun body by using the main spring. Therefore, the main part fixing the gun body by repeated operation is worn or damaged Frequent maintenance occurs, which leads to a decrease in work efficiency and an increase in manufacturing cost.
The main spring also has a problem in that the elastic force is lowered due to the repeated operation so that the forward movement of the key body is not smoothly performed and welding is bad in the pressing operation.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to solve the above problems of the prior art. In the conventional stud welding gun, not only the components of the lifting module for fixing the gun body due to repeated operation are worn and damaged, The problem of welding is solved. The solution to this problem is that there is no wear of the components even in the repeated operation using the actuator, and even if there is no main spring, the first air cylinder, which corresponds to the conventional gun body, And a stud welded gun using the same.
