[0003] At present, there are various ways of plasma welding application in automobile part production. Some welding plants use a rotating table combined with an industrial welding robot for collaborative operation, and divide the processing area and the processed area on the rotating table.

For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of these terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0040] Please refer to Figures 1-12 The present application provides a technical solution:
[0041] The automobile parts production plasma welding tool comprises a rack 1, and a fixed frame 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the rack 1.

[0043] When the first hydraulic cylinder 311 on the L-shaped plate 310 is started, the piston end will bring the plasma welding head 312 to the welding seam on the circular workpiece body at the center of the circular ring plate 33, and move close until the appropriate welding distance is reached. Then, the asynchronous motor 31 on the rack 1 is started, and the output shaft of the asynchronous motor 31 will drive the driving gear 32 to start rotating. Since the driving gear 32 is engaged with the driven gear ring 35, the driven gear ring 35 will rotate synchronously under the limiting and guiding action of the multiple sets of limiting wheels 34, and the support 36 fixed to the outer wall of the driven gear ring 35 away from the circular ring plate 33 will rotate synchronously with the driven gear ring 35. At this time, the plasma welding head 312 is started, which will cooperate with the revolution of the support 36 to perform continuous and uniform welding on the circular weld seam on the circular workpiece body. When a square workpiece body needs to be welded, first rotate the support 36 to be horizontal and outside the top end of the circular ring plate 33, then start the first asynchronous motor 37, and the output end of the first asynchronous motor 37 will drive the unidirectional threaded rod 38 to rotate. Since the moving column 39 is threadedly connected with the unidirectional threaded rod 38 and is slidably installed at one end inside the support 36, the rotation of the unidirectional threaded rod 38 will be converted into the horizontal movement of the moving column 39, thereby enabling the plasma welding head 312 to move horizontally.
