Abstract

PURPOSE:To feed exactly a welding wire to a normal welding position without receiving curving and deforming, by feeding the welding wire to a feed route having a curving part while twisting the wire circumferentially just before the curving part. CONSTITUTION:A welding wire W is fed in an arrow alpha-direction by a wire feeder (not shown), and the wire W is twisted circumferentially in an arrow beta direction by a wire twister 10 provided on the side just before a welding torch having a feed route 12 provided with a curving part 11. The twister 10 consists of a pair of press rolls 16, 16 which are pivotally supported to the output shaft 13a of a driving motor 13, on support shafts 17, 17, by means of a bracket 15 and support arms 14, 15. Said twister grasps the wire W by the rolls 16, 16 pressed by spring members (not shown). As the wire W is twisted, the curving and deforming are dispersed uniformly in the circumferential direction, and the wire is exactly fed to the normal welding position P in an approximately straight shape.

In automatic arc welding using consumable electrodes such as G welding and MIG welding, and in T-work G welding and brazing that use additive wire, the welding wire is fed smoothly to the welding point and accurately hits the arc part. Needless to say, it is necessary to supply it.

By the way, if there is a curved part in the middle of the feeding path for feeding the welding wire (usually a wire guide tube etc. is used), even if a straight welding wire is fed into the feeding path, It is possible to prevent the welding torch from being deflected in a direction different from the groove direction when it exits the tip of the welding torch due to bending distortion occurring when passing through the curved portion.

Particularly when there is a welding joint in a narrow space and a welding torch with an extremely curved tip called a so-called curved torch must be used, or when using robot welding equipment, wrist rotation is required. If it is unavoidable that the welding wire is extremely curved in the feed path due to movement, etc., the welding wire passes through such a curved portion, causing the wire itself to curve and deform, and the wire cannot be fed from the tip of the torch. The welding wire will come out curved and deformed with a radius of curvature larger than the radius of curvature of the curved part existing in the feeding path, and the actual feeding position of the welding wire will deviate from the normal feeding position, causing welding This will result in a hindrance to your work.

By the way, when the welding wire W is fed in the direction of the arrow α through such a feeding path by the wire feeder (not shown) provided on the proximal end side of the guide tube l, the welding torch 2
Although it is fed in a completely straight line until it reaches , it is deformed into a curve when passing through the curved part 2a of the welding torch 2, and in the space where it exits the welding torch 2 and reaches the welding part, it is fed in a curve with a radius of curvature R1. This results in the welding progressing in a direction largely deviated from the normal welding position P.

Of course, the value of the radius of curvature R1 of the curved portion 40 caused in the welding wire w due to this bending tendency increases as the degree of curvature of the curved portion in the feeding path (here, the curved portion a of the welding torch 2 is referred to) is significant, that is, the value of the radius of curvature R1 increases. The smaller the radius of curvature R of the curved portion 2a, the smaller the radius of curvature R tends to be.

Table 1 shows the actual measured correlation between the radius of curvature R of the curved part in the feeding path and the radius of curvature R1 of the welding wire W that has been curved and deformed for CO2 welding steel wires with diameters of 1 and 2, which are currently widely used. This shows an example of the results obtained.

In addition, in Fig. 1, the normal welding position of the welded part is P,

This imposes a constraint on the force required to maintain a feed path that curves gently so that the length is approximately 5+++ m or 90 mm or more, which is a major obstacle in designing welding equipment. It had become.

Here, the deviation amount δ of the welding wire W with respect to the regular welding position P is determined by using a welding wire of the same standard as the welding wire used to obtain the measurement results shown in FIG. Figure 4 shows the results of detailed measurements using a wire.

In addition, the welding wire W is fed through the feeding path at a constant speed, and if that speed is ■, the torsion pitch P of the welding wire W is expressed by the following formula O ■ Now, the welding wire W is fed Feeding speed V = lom/win
Then, the value of the torsion pitch P in each of the above curves [3], +4+, and (5) is 80 mm + 60 mm, respectively.

By the way, by comparing each of the above curves (al+ (4L(5)) with the curves (1) and (2) shown in FIG. By comparison, when using the method of the present invention, the amount of wire deflection -9 = δ at the same radius of curvature R is reduced to a much lower value than when using the conventional feeding method. .

In other words, under the constraint that the amount of deviation δ at the welding part of the welding wire must be suppressed to a predetermined value or less, according to the method according to the present invention, the radius of curvature of the curved part generated in the feeding path can be reduced. This allows R to be much smaller than in the conventional 110-meter feeding method, and the degree of freedom in setting the feeding path is greatly expanded.

Also, Figure 5 shows a CO with a diameter of 1.2 am, similar to the measurement described above.
2. Using a welding steel wire, the rotational speed of the wire is sequentially changed and the twist pitch P is changed, and the change in the deviation amount δ of the wire is expressed as the change in the radius of curvature R of the curved part in the feeding path. Measurements were made with various values changed, and the results are shown in a graph.

Similar to the graph shown in FIG. 4, this graph also shows that the smaller the torsion pitch P, the smaller the deviation amount δ. It is easily understood that the method of feeding the material while twisting it on the near side is very effective.

The reason why the straight wire W curves in this way is that the wire W undergoes bending deformation when passing through the curved part of the wire guide 20. Tensile stress is generated in a portion close to the inner circumference, and compressive stress is generated in a portion indicated by R1 near the inner periphery, and as a result, the wire W is deformed into an arc shape.

Therefore, when considering such changes in the torsional pitch section of the welding wire of one pitch or more, the tensile and compressive forces acting on each part of the welding wire are uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction of the wire, and the welding wire is This means that the welding wire deforms evenly in the circumferential direction, which is a completely different phenomenon than when the welding wire is subjected to tensile or compressive force only in a specific direction, as shown in Figure 6(a). It is easy to understand that

Further, when the welding wire in such a state is viewed macroscopically, the direction of movement of the wire is always constant, and the wire is fed in a state close to a straight line.

Therefore, the amount of deviation from the normal welding position in the welded part is extremely small, and stable welding work can be performed.

In the above embodiment, a case where the welding torch 12 includes the curved portion 11 has been described, but the curved portion is not limited to the welding torch, and the curved portion may occur anywhere in the feed path 14 for feeding the welding wire to the welding location. It can also be applied to cases.

Further, the location where the welding wire is twisted is not limited to the front side of the welding torch, and the welding wire may be twisted in the circumferential direction using a guide, for example.
