Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of laser welding, and in particular relates to a plastic laser welding fixture with three-point positioning. Background Art
[0002] Plastic laser welding generally adopts the principle of transmission welding, using near-infrared laser or mid-infrared laser as the heat source of two superimposed plastic parts. Laser welding of plastics has high strength and good effect, and has more cost and effect advantages than traditional ultrasonic welding, hot melt welding, vibration welding and other processes. Plastic refers to a high molecular polymer material that can be plastically processed and formed under certain conditions. Because of its stable performance and easy processing, it is widely used in various industries, such as construction, agriculture, transportation, electronics and other fields.
[0003] During the laser welding process of plastics, the uneven contact surface will lead to poor welding results. Therefore, in order to obtain better welding results, it is usually necessary to apply pressure to the plastic workpieces so that the superimposed plastic workpieces fit tightly and the welding effect is consistent. Existing plastic laser welding fixtures all use glass pressure, which will damage the glass surface during debugging and production, so the glass needs to be replaced frequently. If this method is used to weld larger plastic parts, the entire piece of glass must be replaced if the glass surface is damaged a little, which greatly increases the production cost. And for larger film-like plastic workpieces, the larger the glass, the more difficult it is to make the plastic workpiece fit tightly. Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a plastic laser welding fixture that can press large-sized film-like plastic workpieces and is easy to replace when the glass is damaged, and has low cost.

[0035] Furthermore, in order to effectively protect the tempered glass, three rectangular holes correspond to the tops of the three groups of cylinders A respectively.
[0036] In the present invention, two positioning blocks A and two positioning blocks B are respectively installed on the outer sides of the left and right ends of the two high-precision linear guides, so that a limiting structure can be formed at the left and right ends of the two high-precision linear guides, so that the slider A can be prevented from slipping off the high-precision linear guides; in addition, the two positioning blocks A can also limit the maximum stroke of the left side of the bottom plate during the horizontal movement after contacting with the slider A, which is conducive to quickly locating the first point loading and unloading position. At the same time, the two positioning blocks B can also limit the maximum stroke of the right side of the bottom plate during the horizontal movement after contacting with the slider A, which is conducive to quickly locating the second point first part welding position; installing the slider A on the high-precision linear guide, and then using the bottom plate adapter to install the bottom plate on the slider A, so that the bottom plate can slide smoothly along the length direction of the mounting base, so that the subsequent plastic parts to be welded have the degree of freedom in the X-axis direction. Two cylinders B are installed oppositely at the left and right ends of the base plate, and two pressure plates A are connected oppositely to the piston rod ends of the two cylinders B, so that the two pressure plates A can be driven by the two cylinders B to move vertically, thereby realizing the pressing and loosening of the plastic parts to be welded. The workpiece support plate is installed above the base plate through the heightening plate, and the heightening plate can be used to lift the workpiece support plate above the cylinder barrel of the cylinder B. In this way, when the plastic parts to be welded are set above the workpiece support plate, it can be ensured that the cylinder B can act on the plastic parts to be welded during the process of driving the pressure plate A; the welding base plate is connected to the workpiece support plate through the silicone pad, which can ensure that the plastic parts to be welded have a certain elastic buffering range after being placed on the welding base plate. In this way, when the pressure plate A presses on the end of the plastic parts to be welded, it can ensure that the middle section of the plastic parts to be welded can have a good fit with the welding base plate. Workpiece positioning blocks A and B are installed at both ends of the workpiece support plate relative to the outside of the silicone pad and the welding base plate, which can ensure that after the two ends of the plastic parts to be welded are overlapped on the workpiece positioning blocks A and B, the two pressure plates A can be used to stably press the two ends of the plastic parts to be welded on the workpiece positioning blocks A and B. The six cylinders A fixedly installed on the mounting base are used to support the pressure plate B above the welding base plate, which can facilitate the use of the synchronous telescopic action of the six cylinders A to drive the pressure plate B to move vertically, so that the middle section of the plastic parts to be welded can be stably pressed on the surface of the welding base plate after a certain distance of downward movement, which is conducive to ensuring the stability of the welding process. Three rectangular holes are opened in the length direction of the pressure plate B, and tempered glass is installed in the rectangular holes, which can not only use the hardness of the tempered glass to ensure the pressing effect of the workpiece to be welded, but also facilitate the laser to pass through and act on the plastic parts to be welded. Two spring positioning pins A are arranged on the workpiece support plate, which can facilitate the positioning of the plastic parts to be welded placed on the welding base plate, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the placement position of the plastic parts to be welded and effectively ensuring the welding quality.Install a spring locating pin B with 45° on both sides of the upper end on the mounting base. At the same time, fix the stopper A and the slide rail on the lower end surface of the bottom plate, and slide the stopper B on the slide rail. At the same time, make the left side of the lower end of the stopper A 45° and the right side 90°. In this way, when the spring pin of the spring locating pin B abuts the right side of the stopper A, the second part of the welding position of the third point in the rightward lateral movement of the bottom plate can be positioned. Make the lower end of the stopper B lower than the lower end of the stopper A. At the same time, make the left side of the lower end of the stopper B 60° and the right side 45°, so that the bottom plate can smoothly pass through the positions of the stopper B and the stopper A during the first movement to the right, and can reach the position abutting with the locating block B. At the same time, when the bottom plate moves to the left from the position of the positioning block B, it can smoothly pass through the block A and can interact with the left side surface of the lower end of the block B to push the block B away from the block A for a certain distance, so as to generate a space between the blocks A and B for the elastic pin to bounce up. In this way, the bottom plate can be pushed in the reverse direction to achieve the positioning of the third point.
[0037] The present invention has low manufacturing cost, can realize stable clamping of the plastic workpiece to be welded, and can realize three-point positioning of the plastic workpiece to be welded, which can effectively ensure the welding quality. It is suitable for welding of large-sized film-like plastic parts, can compress large-sized film-like plastic workpieces, and is easy to replace after the tempered glass is damaged. For film-like plastic parts, due to their thin characteristics, when the large-sized glass is pressed down, the contact surface of the plastic workpiece cannot be fully contacted, and the large-sized tempered glass is damaged due to debugging and processing and needs to be replaced at a high cost. The use of this solution can effectively solve the welding clamping problem of film-like plastic parts and reduce production costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0064] The workpiece support plate 21 is horizontally arranged above the bottom plate 25 and is located between the two cylinders B7.

The outer ends of the two pressing plates are respectively fixedly mounted on the piston rod ends of the two cylinders B7, and the inner ends of the two pressing plates approach each other and extend to the inner side above the two ends of the workpiece support plate 21. The two pressing plates A8, driven synchronously by the two cylinders B7, can press the plastic parts to be welded onto the welding base plate 18, thereby avoiding the occurrence of adhesion between the plastic parts and the tempered glass 2 after welding.

[0082] Here’s how to use it:
[0083] Step 1: Pull the bottom plate 25 out to the position of the positioning block A6 through the handle A4. This position is the first loading and unloading position. Place the plastic workpiece to be welded on the upper part of the welding bottom plate 18. The circular holes reserved on both sides of the plastic workpiece to be welded are positioned with the elastic pins of the two spring positioning pins A17. Synchronously control the actions of the two cylinders B7 so that the high-pressure gas output by the high-pressure gas source enters the rod chambers of the two cylinders B7, driving the piston rods of the two cylinders B7 to retract synchronously, and synchronously drive the two pressing plates A8 to move downward until the two ends of the plastic workpiece to be welded are pressed tightly against the positioning workpiece positioning block A20 and the workpiece positioning block B26. In this process, the middle section of the plastic workpiece to be welded is tightly fitted with the welding bottom plate 18;
[0084] Step 2: Push the bottom plate 25 to the welding position of the first part of the second point through the handle A4. The bottom plate 25 moves horizontally to the right along the high-precision linear guide rail 5 through the four sliders A15. When it moves to the position of the spring positioning pin B12, the block B24 overlaps the left side of the spring positioning pin B12 by 45 degrees through the right side inclined surface. The horizontal force becomes a vertical force, so that the spring positioning pin B12 is pressed down, and the bottom plate 25 continues to move. After moving past the block B24, because the distance between the block A23 and the block B24 is almost 0, the spring positioning pin B12 always keeps pressing down, and the bottom plate 25 continues to move. When it moves to the position where it is restricted by the positioning block B14, this position is the welding position of the first part of the second point.
[0085] Step 3: After reaching the welding position of the first part of the second point, control the six cylinders A11 to move synchronously, so that the high-pressure gas output by the high-pressure gas source enters the rod chamber of the six cylinders A11, drives the piston rods of the six cylinders A11 to shrink synchronously, and drives the pressing plate B1 to move toward the mounting base 9, directly pressing the plastic workpiece to be welded and then starting the welding operation. After welding, synchronously control the piston rods of the six cylinders A11 to extend synchronously, and separate the pressing plate B1 from the state of contact with the plastic workpiece to be welded. At this time, move to the welding position of the second part of the third point, and pull the bottom plate 25 back in the opposite direction through the handle A4. Because the left side of the stopper A23 is a 45° inclined surface, it is positioned with the spring. The 45° inclined surfaces of the pin B12 overlap, and the horizontal force becomes a vertical force, so that the spring positioning pin B12 is pressed down, and the bottom plate 25 continues to move. Because the block B24 is slightly lower than the block A23, and the left side of the block B24 is a 60° inclined surface, when the bottom plate 25 is moved, the slowly rebounding spring positioning pin B12 drives the block B24 to move on the slide rail 22 with friction resistance, and finally the gap between the block A23 and the block B24 becomes larger, and the spring positioning pin B12 is completely lifted. After being lifted, it pushes the bottom plate 25 in the opposite direction to move close to the positioning block B14. At this time, the right side of the block A23 is limited by the spring positioning pin B12, and this position is the welding position of the second part of the third point;
[0086] Step 4: After reaching the welding position of the second part of the third point, synchronously control the six cylinders A11 to retract, so that the high-pressure gas output by the high-pressure gas source enters the rod chamber of the six cylinders A11, and drives the piston rods of the six cylinders A11 to retract synchronously, driving the pressure plate B1 to move in the direction close to the mounting base 9, and directly press the plastic workpiece to be welded and start the welding operation. After welding, synchronously control the piston rods of the six cylinders A11 to extend synchronously, and separate the pressure plate B1 from the contact state with the plastic workpiece to be welded. At this time, use the handle A4 to move the bottom plate 25 to the starting position of the first point, so that the bottom plate 25 moves horizontally to the left along the high-precision linear guide 5 through the four sliders A15. During the movement, it encounters the limit stop of the positioning block A6. This position is the loading and unloading position of the first point.
[0087] In the present invention, two positioning blocks A and two positioning blocks B are respectively installed on the outer sides of the left and right ends of the two high-precision linear guides, so that a limiting structure can be formed at the left and right ends of the two high-precision linear guides, so that the slider A can be prevented from slipping off the high-precision linear guides; in addition, the two positioning blocks A can also limit the maximum stroke of the left side of the bottom plate during the horizontal movement after contacting with the slider A, which is conducive to quickly locating the first point loading and unloading position. At the same time, the two positioning blocks B can also limit the maximum stroke of the right side of the bottom plate during the horizontal movement after contacting with the slider A, which is conducive to quickly locating the second point first part welding position; installing the slider A on the high-precision linear guide, and then using the bottom plate adapter to install the bottom plate on the slider A, so that the bottom plate can slide smoothly along the length direction of the mounting base, so that the subsequent plastic parts to be welded have the degree of freedom in the X-axis direction. Two cylinders B are installed oppositely at the left and right ends of the base plate, and two pressure plates A are connected oppositely to the piston rod ends of the two cylinders B, so that the two pressure plates A can be driven by the two cylinders B to move vertically, thereby realizing the pressing and loosening of the plastic parts to be welded. The workpiece support plate is installed above the base plate through the heightening plate, and the heightening plate can be used to lift the workpiece support plate above the cylinder barrel of the cylinder B. In this way, when the plastic parts to be welded are set above the workpiece support plate, it can be ensured that the cylinder B can act on the plastic parts to be welded during the process of driving the pressure plate A; the welding base plate is connected to the workpiece support plate through the silicone pad, which can ensure that the plastic parts to be welded have a certain elastic buffering range after being placed on the welding base plate. In this way, when the pressure plate A presses on the end of the plastic parts to be welded, it can ensure that the middle section of the plastic parts to be welded can have a good fit with the welding base plate. Workpiece positioning blocks A and B are installed at both ends of the workpiece support plate relative to the outside of the silicone pad and the welding base plate, which can ensure that after the two ends of the plastic parts to be welded are overlapped on the workpiece positioning blocks A and B, the two pressure plates A can be used to stably press the two ends of the plastic parts to be welded on the workpiece positioning blocks A and B. The six cylinders A fixedly installed on the mounting base are used to support the pressure plate B above the welding base plate, which can facilitate the use of the synchronous telescopic action of the six cylinders A to drive the pressure plate B to move vertically, so that the middle section of the plastic parts to be welded can be stably pressed on the surface of the welding base plate after a certain distance of downward movement, which is conducive to ensuring the stability of the welding process. Three rectangular holes are opened in the length direction of the pressure plate B, and tempered glass is installed in the rectangular holes, which can not only use the hardness of the tempered glass to ensure the pressing effect of the workpiece to be welded, but also facilitate the laser to pass through and act on the plastic parts to be welded. Two spring positioning pins A are arranged on the workpiece support plate, which can facilitate the positioning of the plastic parts to be welded placed on the welding base plate, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the placement position of the plastic parts to be welded and effectively ensuring the welding quality.Install a spring locating pin B with 45° on both sides of the upper end on the mounting base. At the same time, fix the stopper A and the slide rail on the lower end surface of the bottom plate, and slide the stopper B on the slide rail. At the same time, make the left side of the lower end of the stopper A 45° and the right side 90°. In this way, when the spring pin of the spring locating pin B abuts the right side of the stopper A, the second part of the welding position of the third point in the rightward lateral movement of the bottom plate can be positioned. Make the lower end of the stopper B lower than the lower end of the stopper A. At the same time, make the left side of the lower end of the stopper B 60° and the right side 45°, so that the bottom plate can smoothly pass through the positions of the stopper B and the stopper A during the first movement to the right, and can reach the position abutting with the locating block B. At the same time, when the bottom plate moves to the left from the position of the positioning block B, it can smoothly pass through the block A and can interact with the left side surface of the lower end of the block B to push the block B away from the block A for a certain distance, so as to generate a space between the blocks A and B for the elastic pin to bounce up. In this way, the bottom plate can be pushed in the reverse direction to achieve the positioning of the third point.
[0088] The present invention has low manufacturing cost, can realize stable clamping of the plastic workpiece to be welded, and can realize three-point positioning of the plastic workpiece to be welded, which can effectively ensure the welding quality. It is suitable for welding of large-sized film-like plastic parts, can compress large-sized film-like plastic workpieces, and is easy to replace after the tempered glass is damaged. For film-like plastic parts, due to their thin characteristics, when the large-sized glass is pressed down, the contact surface of the plastic workpiece cannot be fully contacted, and the large-sized tempered glass is damaged due to debugging and processing and needs to be replaced at a high cost. The use of this solution can effectively solve the welding clamping problem of film-like plastic parts and reduce production costs.
[0089] The structure and implementation modes of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above implementation modes, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in this field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
