MISSING WELD PREVENTION SYSTEM FOR SPOT WELDERS

摘要

A missing weld prevention system for spot welders is provided, which is a technology designed for spot welders to prevent missing welds by detecting any defects using a sensor while performing spot-welding before feeding work-pieces. Used for the spot welder is comprised of a lower welding tip and an upper welding tip moving up and down from the top of the lower welding tip, which welds the work-piece transferred through between the lower and upper welding tips by applying pressure and electric current, this invention features the primary photo sensor, the current sensor, the secondary photo sensor, and the control unit serving to detect missing spot welds.

1. A missing weld prevention system for spot welders, wherein the spot welder features a lower welding tip and an upper welding tip moving up and down designed to weld work-pieces transferred between the lower and upper welding tips by applying pressure and electric current,
the missing weld prevention system being comprised of a primary photo sensor located on one side of the spot welder, which detects the state of the work-pieces fed to the spot welder; a current sensor electrically connected to the upper welding tip, which identifies electric current in the work-pieces transferred through between the upper and lower welding tips when the upper welding tip moves down; a secondary photo sensor located on the other side of the spot welder, which detects the state of the work-pieces discharged from the spot-welder; and a control unit, wherein a per-cycle counter settings for a primary photo sensor, the current sensor, and the secondary photo sensor have been pre-entered and a per-cycle counter outputs from the sequential operations of the primary photo sensor, the current sensor, and the second photo sensor have been entered so that outputs and settings are compared to control the operation of the upper welding tip.
