Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、ガス管や上下水道管,石油プラント等の各種配管の内面を補修溶接するときに溶接電源のマイナス側を母材へ接地を行うアースクランプ装置に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
例えば200A〜800Aの小中径管のガス管等の溶接継手の内面を補修溶接するために溶接装置を搭載した溶接台車と溶接電源を搭載した溶接電源台車をテレビカメラ等を搭載した駆動走行車に連結し、駆動走行車の駆動力で溶接台車と溶接電源台車を管内で走行させている。そして、補修位置で溶接台車に搭載した溶接装置で補修溶接を行っている。この管内を補修溶接するときに、溶接電源のマイナス側を鋼管に接続してアースを取っている。このアースを取る方法としては、管内の溶接電源台車からのアースケーブルの先端部に取り付けたアース端子を管外に引き出しておき、管端部をグラインダ研磨処理してから、図7に示すように締付け装置71によりアース端子72を固定する方法と、図8に示すように、溶接電源台車からの空気圧でエアーシリンダ73を駆動してアース接触子74を溶接電源台車近傍の管8内面に押圧する方法が採用されている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
管内の溶接電源台車からアースケーブルを管外に引き出して管端部にアースを取る方法は、駆動走行車で溶接台車と溶接電源台車を管内で移動するときに他の制御ケーブル等とともにアースケーブルも駆動走行車の限られた牽引力で牽引する必要がある。このため溶接台車等の移動距離が制限されてしまい、長距離の管路に適用することは困難であった。例えば図9に示すように、管路81内に45度のベンドのL2=5mの伏越82と90度のベンドのL3=5mの伏越83がそれぞれ1個所存在するL=150mのラインを索引力が610kgの駆動走行車で始端aから終端fへ溶接台車等を進行するときに、単位長さあたりの重量が1.37kg/mのケーブルでは150m走行できるが、単位長さあたりの重量が1.96kg/mのケーブルでは90m程度しか走行できなかった。このため長距離の管路で作業を行うためには中継のための作業用ピットを必要とし、費用がかかるとともに交通障害等原因にもなってしまう。
【0004】
また、溶接電源台車からの空気圧でエアシリンダを駆動してアース接触子を溶接電源台車近傍の管内面に押圧する方法は、上記のように駆動走行車の限られた牽引力でアースケーブルを牽引する必要はなく、管内に例えばタール等のごみが1.5mmから2mm程度の厚さで堆積していても、アース接触子を300kgfの加圧力で加圧すると確実にアースを取ることができる。しかしながら管内面に例えば膜厚20〜30μmのタールエポキシ系の塗料の塗装がある場合は、アース接触子と母材間でアークが発生し、アース接触子の接触部と母材に損傷が生じる。この現象はアース接触子の加圧力を500kgfまで増加しても生じてしまう。この現象が生じることを防ぐにはアース接触子の加圧力を大きくする必要があるが、溶接台車等を管内で走行させるために装置の小型化する必要があり、アース接触子の加圧力をあまり大きくすることは困難である。
【0005】
そこで、溶接台車と溶接電源台車とともに研磨台車も管内を走行させ、管内面をグラインダー研磨処理してから、その位置にアース接触子を押圧することが行われている。しかしながら溶接継手の研磨には多くの時間を要し、例えば300Aの鋼管で1個所を研磨するのに90分程度必要である。また、研磨した場所にアース接触子を位置決めする時間も必要になり作業能率が非常に悪かった。さらに、研磨した場所にアース接触子を位置決めするための監視用のカメラも必要になり、溶接電源台車の構成が複雑になって価格も高価になってしまう。
【0006】
この発明はかかる短所を改善し、簡単な構成で確実にアースを取ることができるアースクランプヘッド及びアースクランプ装置を得ることを目的とするものである。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
この発明に係るアースクランプヘッドは、ホルダとコンタクタを保持するロッドと圧縮バネ及びボールとを有し、ホルダは内部にガイド穴とガイド穴の側壁に設けられたボール保持部を有し、ロッドはホルダのガイド穴と嵌合するガイド部を有し、ガイド部表面には螺旋状に形成された溝カムが設けられ、圧縮バネはホルダのガイド穴に挿入されロッドを押圧し、ボールはホルダのボール保持部に保持され、ロッドのガイド部に形成された溝カムと係合し、ホルダの直進運動によりロッドの先端部で保持したコンタクタが母材と接触したときに、ロッドを圧縮バネで押圧しながら回動することを特徴とする。
【0008】
上記コンタクタの母材との接触面に複数の溝を有することが望ましい。
【0009】
この発明に係るアースクランプ装置は、管内を移動する溶接台車に連結された溶接電源台車に取り付けられたフレームと、フレームに絶縁体を介して取り付けられたシリンダと、シリンダのピストンロットに連結されたアースクランプヘッドとを有し、アースクランプヘッドはホルダとコンタクタを保持するロッドと圧縮バネ及びボールとを有し、ホルダは内部にガイド穴とガイド穴の側壁に設けられたボール保持部を有し、シリンダのピストンロットに連結され、ロッドはホルダのガイド穴と嵌合するガイド部を有し、ガイド部表面には螺旋状に形成された溝カムが設けられ、圧縮バネはホルダのガイド穴に挿入されロッドを押圧し、ボールはホルダのボール保持部に保持され、ロッドのガイド部に形成された溝カムと係合し、シリンダによるホルダの直進運動によりロッドの先端部で保持したコンタクタが母材と接触したときに、ロッドを圧縮バネで押圧しながら回動することを特徴とする。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
この発明のアースクランプ装置は、管内を移動する溶接台車に連結した溶接電源台車に取り付けられたフレームと、フレームに絶縁体を介して取り付けられた2本のエアーシリンダと、アーム及びアースクランプヘッドとを有する。2本のエアーシリンダはピストンロッドが平行になるように配置されている。アームはU字状に形成され、先端部の中央部にはクランプヘッドを通すガイド溝が形成され、ガイド溝を挟んだ両側がエアーシリンダのピストンロッドに固定され、後端部の中央部にはアースクランプヘッドが固定されている。アースクランプヘッドはホルダとコンタクタを保持するロッドと圧縮バネ及びボールとを有する。ホルダは内部にガイド穴とガイド穴の側壁に設けられたボール保持部を有し、ガイド穴の開口部と反対側がアームの後端部に固定されている。ロッドはホルダのガイド穴と嵌合するガイド部を有し、ガイド部表面には螺旋状に形成された溝カムが設けられている。圧縮バネはホルダのガイド穴に挿入されロッドを押圧する。ボールはホルダのボール保持部に取り付けられ、ロッドのガイド部に形成された溝カムと係合してホルダの直進運動によりロッドを回動する。
【0011】
駆動走行車により溶接台車と溶接電源台車を管内を移動して溶接継手の位置に達して補修溶接をするとき、アースクランプ装置のエアーシリンダに所定の圧力の加圧空気を供給してピストンロッドを前進させ、ピストンロッドに固定したアームによりアースクランプヘッドを前進させて、アースクランプヘッドのロッドの先端部で保持したコンタクタを管内面に接触させる。この状態でアームを更に前進させると、クランプヘッドのホルダがロッドのガイド部に沿って前進し、ロッドをホルダのボール保持部に取り付けられたボールで案内して回動しながら圧縮バネの弾性力で押圧し、コンタクタの先端接触面を管内面に強く押し付けながら回動させ、管内面に付着したごみや塗装を剥離して除去する。したがってコンタクタの先端接触面と管を導通状態とすることができ、溶接電源のアースを確実に取ることができる。
【0012】
【実施例】
図1,図2,図3はこの発明の一実施例のアースクランプ装置の構成を示し、図1は正面断面図、図2は側面断面図、図3は平面図である。図に示すように、アースクランプ装置1はフレーム2と2本のエアーシリンダ3a,3bとアーム4及びクランプヘッド5とを有する。フレーム2は、図4に示すように、溶接電源を搭載した溶接電源台車6に取り付けられている。溶接電源台車6と溶接装置を搭載した溶接台車7は不図示の駆動走行車により管8内を移動する。2本のエアーシリンダ3a,3bは絶縁板9を介してフレーム2の内面に固定され、ピストンロッド31が平行になるように配置されている。アーム4の先端部41中央にはクランプヘッド5を通すU字状のガイド溝42が形成され、ガイド溝42を挟んだ両側がエアーシリンダ3a,3bのピストンロッド31に固定され、後端部43の中央部にクランプヘッド5を固定するキー溝付きの貫通穴44を有する。
【0013】
クランプヘッド5は、図5の断面図に示すように、ホルダ51とロッド52とコンタクタ53と圧縮バネ54と2個のボール55とボールサポータ56とガイド57及びストップリング58とを有する。ホルダ51は内部にガイド穴511を有する外筒512と支持部513を有する。外筒512は中間部にリング57を位置決めする係止部514を有し、係止部514より先端の側壁にはボールサポータ56を嵌入する2個の貫通穴515を有し、貫通穴515より先端部にリング57を固定するストップリング58を取り付けるキー溝516を有する。支持部513は側面に回転防止用のキー溝517を有し、先端部に取付ねじ穴518を有する。ロッド52はホルダ51のガイド穴511と嵌合するガイド部521とコンタクタ53を固定する保持部522とを有する。ガイド部521には、図6の斜視図に示すように、ボール55を案内する溝カム523が例えば45度のリード角で螺旋状に設けられている。保持部522の先端部にはコンタクタ53をロッド52と同軸心で固定するねじ穴524が設けられ、側面には溶接電源のマイナス側に接続されたアースケーブルの端子を取り付けるねじ穴525を有する。コンタクタ53の先端接触面は管8の内径の半径と同じ曲率半径で形成され、碁盤目状に交差した複数の溝531を有する。
【0014】
このクランプヘッド5を組み立てるときは、ホルダ51のガイド穴511に圧縮バネ54を挿入する。次にコンタクタ53を取り付けたロッド52のガイド部521にリング57を通してガイド部52をガイド穴511に挿入し、ロッド52のガイド部521に設けた溝カム523がホルダ51の貫通穴515の位置にくるように圧縮バネ54を圧縮し、溝カム523にホルダ51の貫通穴515からボール55を入れ、ボール55をボールサポータ56で位置決めして取り付ける。そしてボールサポータ56をリング57で覆い、リング57をストップリング58で固定する。このクランプヘッド5のホルダ51の支持部513に設けたはキー溝517に回転防止用のキーを取り付けて支持部513をアーム4の後端部43のキー溝付きの貫通穴44に挿入して座金とボルト10によりクランプヘッド5をアーム4に固定する。
【0015】
上記のように構成したアースクランプ装置1で管8の内面にアースを取るときの動作を説明する。
【0016】
駆動走行車により溶接台車7と溶接電源台車6を管8内を移動して溶接継手の位置に達して補修溶接をするとき、アースクランプ装置1のエアーシリンダ3a,3bに所定の圧力の加圧空気を供給してピストンロッド31を前進させる。ピストンロッド31を前進すると、ピストンロッド31の先端部に固定したアーム4が前進してクランプヘッド5を管8の内面側に移動させる。クランプヘッド5が移動してコンタクタ53の先端接触面が管8の内面に接触した状態でアーム4を更に前進させると、クランプヘッド5のホルダ51がロッド52のガイド部521に沿って前進する。ホルダ51が前進するとボール55がロッド52の溝カム523に案内され、ロッド52を回動しながら圧縮ばね54の弾性力で押圧し、コンタクタ53の先端接触面を管8の内面に強く押し付けながら回動させる。このようにコンタクタ53の先端接触面を管8の内面に強く押し付けながら回動させると、コンタクタ53の先端接触面に設けてある碁盤目状に交差した複数の溝531により管8内面に付着したごみや塗装を剥離して除去し、コンタクタ53の先端接触面を管8自体に直接接触させる。このようにしてコンタクタ53と管8の接触抵抗を小さくしてコンタクタ53と管8を導通状態とする。したがって溶接電源のアースを確実に取ることができる。また、ロッド52に対してコンタクタ53を着脱できるように構成したから、任意の径の管に適用することができる。
【0017】
このようにして溶接電源のアースを取ってから溶接台車7に搭載した溶接装置により補修溶接を行う。この補修溶接が終了したらアースクランプ装置1のエアーシリンダ3a,3bに対する加圧空気の供給を停止してピストンロッド31を後退させてアーム4すなわちクランプヘッド5のホルダ51を初期位置に戻してコンタクタ53を管8の内面から離して次の補修個所に溶接台車7と溶接電源台車6を移動させる。
【0018】
上記実施例は2本のエアーシリンダ3a,3bを使用した場合について説明したが、内部に回り止め機構を有するエアーシリンダを1本使用しても良い。
【0019】
また、上記実施例はボールサポータ56で位置決めしたボール55とロッド52の溝カム523を係合させた場合について説明したが、ボールサポータ56とボール55を一体にしたカムを溝カム523に係合させても良い。また、ロッド52とコンタクタ53を一体に形成しても良い。
【0020】
【発明の効果】
この発明は以上説明したように、シリンダによるホルダの直進運動によりロッドの先端部で保持したコンタクタが母材と接触したときに、コンタクタの先端接触面を管内面に強く押し付けながら回動させるようにしたから、管内面に付着したごみや塗装を剥離して除去することができ、コンタクタの先端接触面と管を確実に導通状態として、溶接電源のアースを簡単に取ることができる。
【0021】
また、コンタクタの母材との接触面に複数の溝を設けておくことにより、コンタクタを管内面に押し付けながら回動させたときに、管内面に付着したごみや塗装を確実に剥離して除去することができる。
【0022】
さらに、溶接台車に連結した溶接電源台車にアースクランプヘッドを設けることにより、溶接位置近傍でアースをとることができ、パルスMAG溶接法で溶接する場合でもパルス波形が鈍ることを防止することができ、安定した溶接を行うことができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an earth clamp device for grounding a negative side of a welding power source to a base material when repair welding the inner surfaces of various pipes such as a gas pipe, a water and sewage pipe, and an oil plant.
[0002]
[Prior art]
For example, a driving vehicle equipped with a TV camera, etc., equipped with a welding carriage equipped with a welding device and a welding power supply carriage equipped with a welding power source to repair and weld the inner surface of a welded joint such as a gas pipe of a 200A to 800A small and medium diameter pipe The welding cart and the welding power source cart are driven in the pipe by the driving force of the driving vehicle. Then, repair welding is performed with a welding device mounted on the welding carriage at the repair position. When this pipe is repaired and welded, the negative side of the welding power source is connected to the steel pipe for grounding. As a method of taking this grounding, the grounding terminal attached to the tip of the grounding cable from the welding power supply carriage in the pipe is pulled out of the pipe, and the pipe end is grinder polished, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 8, the air cylinder 73 is driven by the air pressure from the welding power supply carriage to press the ground contact 74 against the inner surface of the pipe 8 near the welding power supply carriage. The method is adopted.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Pulling out the ground cable from the welding power supply carriage inside the pipe and grounding it at the end of the pipe means that the ground cable can be used together with other control cables when moving the welding carriage and welding power supply carriage inside the pipe in the driving vehicle. It is necessary to tow with the limited traction force of the driving vehicle. For this reason, the moving distance of the welding cart or the like is limited, and it has been difficult to apply to a long-distance pipeline. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, there is a 45-degree bend L 2 = 5 m overpass 82 and a 90-degree bend L 3 = 5 m overpass 83 in the pipe 81. When driving a welding carriage, etc., from the start end a to the end f with a driving vehicle with an index of 610 kg, the cable can travel 150 m with a cable with a unit length of 1.37 kg / m. The cable with a weight of 1.96kg / m could only travel about 90m. For this reason, in order to work on a long-distance pipeline, a work pit for relaying is required, which is expensive and causes traffic troubles.
[0004]
In addition, the method of driving the air cylinder with the air pressure from the welding power supply carriage and pressing the ground contact against the inner surface of the pipe near the welding power supply carriage pulls the grounding cable with the limited traction force of the driving vehicle as described above. There is no need, and even if dust such as tar accumulates in the pipe with a thickness of about 1.5 mm to 2 mm, the earth can be reliably grounded by pressurizing the earth contact with a pressure of 300 kgf. However, when a tar epoxy paint having a film thickness of 20 to 30 μm, for example, is applied to the inner surface of the tube, an arc is generated between the earth contact and the base material, and the contact portion of the ground contact and the base material are damaged. This phenomenon occurs even when the pressing force of the ground contact is increased to 500 kgf. In order to prevent this phenomenon from occurring, it is necessary to increase the pressure of the ground contact, but it is necessary to reduce the size of the device in order to run a welding carriage, etc. in the pipe, and the pressure of the ground contact is too small. It is difficult to enlarge.
[0005]
In view of this, a polishing carriage as well as a welding carriage and a welding power supply carriage run in the pipe, grind-polishing the inner surface of the pipe, and then pressing the ground contact at that position. However, it takes a lot of time to polish the welded joint. For example, it takes about 90 minutes to polish one place with a 300A steel pipe. In addition, it takes time to position the earth contact at the polished place, and the work efficiency is very poor. Furthermore, a monitoring camera for positioning the earth contact at the polished location is also required, which complicates the construction of the welding power supply carriage and increases the price.
[0006]
An object of the present invention is to provide an earth clamp head and an earth clamp device that can improve such disadvantages and can reliably ground with a simple configuration.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
An earth clamp head according to the present invention includes a rod that holds a holder and a contactor, a compression spring, and a ball . The holder includes a guide hole and a ball holding portion provided on a side wall of the guide hole. It has a guide part that fits into the guide hole of the holder, and a groove cam formed in a spiral shape is provided on the surface of the guide part. The compression spring is inserted into the guide hole of the holder and presses the rod . The rod is held by the ball holder and engaged with the groove cam formed on the guide part of the rod.

[0016]
When the driving carriage moves the welding carriage 7 and the welding power supply carriage 6 through the pipe 8 to reach the position of the weld joint to perform repair welding, the air cylinders 3a and 3b of the earth clamp device 1 are pressurized to a predetermined pressure. Air is supplied to advance the piston rod 31. When the piston rod 31 moves forward, the arm 4 fixed to the tip of the piston rod 31 moves forward and moves the clamp head 5 to the inner surface side of the tube 8. When the clamp head 5 moves and the arm 4 is further advanced in a state where the tip contact surface of the contactor 53 is in contact with the inner surface of the tube 8, the holder 51 of the clamp head 5 moves forward along the guide portion 521 of the rod 52. When the holder 51 advances, the ball 55 is guided by the groove cam 523 of the rod 52, and is pressed by the elastic force of the compression spring 54 while rotating the rod 52, while strongly pressing the contact surface of the contactor 53 against the inner surface of the tube 8. Rotate. Thus, when the tip contact surface of the contactor 53 is rotated while pressing strongly against the inner surface of the tube 8, the contactor 53 adheres to the inner surface of the tube 8 by a plurality of grooves 531 intersecting in a grid pattern provided on the tip contact surface of the contactor 53. Debris and paint are removed and removed, and the contact surface of the contactor 53 is brought into direct contact with the tube 8 itself. In this way, the contact resistance between the contactor 53 and the tube 8 is reduced, and the contactor 53 and the tube 8 are brought into conduction. Therefore, the welding power source can be securely grounded. Moreover, since it comprised so that the contactor 53 could be attached or detached with respect to the rod 52, it can apply to the pipe | tube of arbitrary diameters.
[0017]
After taking the ground of the welding power source in this way, repair welding is performed by a welding apparatus mounted on the welding carriage 7. When this repair welding is completed, the supply of pressurized air to the air cylinders 3a and 3b of the ground clamp device 1 is stopped, the piston rod 31 is retracted, and the arm 51, that is, the holder 51 of the clamp head 5 is returned to the initial position to thereby return the contactor 53. Is moved away from the inner surface of the tube 8 and the welding carriage 7 and the welding power supply carriage 6 are moved to the next repair location.
[0018]
Although the said Example demonstrated the case where two air cylinders 3a and 3b were used, you may use one air cylinder which has a rotation prevention mechanism inside.
[0019]
In the above embodiment, the case where the ball 55 positioned by the ball supporter 56 and the groove cam 523 of the rod 52 are engaged is described. However, the cam in which the ball supporter 56 and the ball 55 are integrated is engaged with the groove cam 523. You may let them. Further, the rod 52 and the contactor 53 may be integrally formed.
[0020]
【The invention's effect】
In the present invention, as described above, when the contactor held by the tip of the rod comes into contact with the base material by the linear movement of the holder by the cylinder, it is rotated while strongly pressing the contact surface of the contactor against the inner surface of the pipe. Therefore, dust and paint adhering to the inner surface of the pipe can be peeled and removed, and the contact surface of the contactor and the pipe can be reliably connected to each other, so that the welding power source can be easily grounded.
[0021]
In addition, by providing a plurality of grooves on the contact surface of the contactor with the base material, when the contactor is rotated while pressing against the inner surface of the tube, dust and paint adhering to the inner surface of the tube are reliably peeled off and removed. can do.
[0022]
Furthermore, by providing a grounding clamp head on the welding power supply carriage connected to the welding carriage, it is possible to ground near the welding position, and even when welding by the pulse MAG welding method, it is possible to prevent the pulse waveform from becoming dull. , Stable welding can be performed.
