Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooler technology, and in particular to a welding positioning mechanism for an all-aluminum cooler. Background Technology

[0002] An all-aluminum cooler is a heat exchange device made primarily of aluminum alloy. Utilizing the excellent thermal conductivity of aluminum and aluminum alloys, it achieves rapid heat transfer and dissipation, and is widely used in scenarios requiring heat dissipation or heat exchange. Its core function is to remove excess heat from the working medium (such as liquid or gas) to maintain the normal operating temperature of the equipment or system. Existing fixing devices for water cooler welding typically maintain a fixed direction and angle after the cooler is fixed, preventing flexible adjustment. To accommodate welding needs in different locations, welders must frequently bend over, turn sideways, or even squat, significantly increasing physical exertion and operational difficulty, thus directly lengthening the time required for a single weld. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that the direction and angle of existing water cooler welding fixing devices are not adjustable after fixing, requiring welders to frequently adjust their posture to adapt to welding, which increases physical exertion and operational difficulty, and also lengthens the time of a single welding operation.

[0024] Example

[0025] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the present invention proposes a welding positioning mechanism for an all-aluminum cooler, comprising a support 1 and a U-shaped frame 3. A base plate 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support 1, increasing the contact area between the support 1 and the ground and improving the stability of the entire mechanism. The U-shaped frame 3 houses the cooler, and a U-shaped positioning clamp 32, which covers the dual-axis motor 31, is fixedly connected inside the U-shaped frame 3. The U-shaped positioning clamp 32, fixed inside the U-shaped frame 3, covers the dual-axis motor 31, providing positioning and protection for the dual-axis motor 31.

[0026] Among them, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the U-shaped frame 3 contains a clamping mechanism for fixing the cooler. The clamping mechanism includes a dual-axis motor 31 fixedly connected within the U-shaped frame 3. The output shafts at both ends of the dual-axis motor 31 are connected to second screws 33, providing power for the rotation of the second screws 33 and driving the sliding clamps 4 to move, thus clamping the cooler. The dual-axis motor 31 refers to a motor system with two axes of motion, capable of working independently or collaboratively in two different directions. Compared to traditional single-axis motors, the dual-axis motor 31 can simultaneously control movement in two directions and is typically used in scenarios requiring precise control of multi-dimensional motion. The output shafts at both ends of the dual-axis motor 31 are fixedly connected to second screws 33, which are helically connected to the sliding clamps 4. Driven by the dual-axis motor 31, the second screws rotate, causing the sliding clamps 4 to move closer or further apart, thus clamping or releasing the cooler. The end of the second screw 33 furthest from the dual-axis motor 31 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 3. Inside the U-shaped frame 3 is a pair of sliding clamps 4 helically connected to the second screw 33. Driven by the second screw 33, the sliding clamps 4 move, cooperating with the first clamp 41 and the second clamp 42 to clamp and fix the cooler. One end of each sliding clamp 4 is fixedly connected to a sliding block 44 that holds the U-shaped frame 3. The sliding block 44 guides and limits the movement of the sliding clamp 4, ensuring stable movement.

[0027] In addition, such as Figure 3 As shown, a first rotating mechanism that drives the cooler to rotate is installed on the clamping mechanism. The first rotating mechanism includes a third motor 43 fixedly connected to the other end of one of the sliding clamps 4. The output shaft of the third motor 43 drives the first clamp 41 to rotate, providing power for adjusting the angle of the cooler itself. The output shaft of the third motor 43 passes through the sliding clamp 4 and is fixedly connected to the first clamp 41. The other end of the other sliding clamp 4 is rotatably connected to a second clamp 42 corresponding to the first clamp 41. Both the first clamp 41 and the second clamp 42 are covered with rubber pads to prevent scratching the cooler.

[0028] It is worth noting that, such as Figures 1 to 2As shown, a second rotating mechanism is located on the outer wall of the middle section of the U-shaped frame 3. This second rotating mechanism includes a support box 2, which provides support and a mounting base for the U-shaped frame 3, and is connected to the lifting mechanism via a lifting plate 22. Inside the support box 2 is a second motor 21, which provides power for the rotation of the U-shaped frame 3, allowing for adjustment of the overall orientation angle of the cooler. The output shaft of the second motor 21 passes through the support box 2 and is fixedly connected to the middle section of the U-shaped frame 3. The lifting plate 22 is fixedly connected to the end of the support box 2 furthest from the U-shaped frame 3. The lifting plate 22 moves up and down under the action of the first screw 13, causing the support box 2 and the U-shaped frame 3 to rise and fall. At the end of the lifting plate 22 furthest from the support box 2, a pair of rollers 23 abut against the outer wall of the support 1. These rollers reduce friction between the lifting plate 22 and the support 1 during lifting, ensuring a smooth lifting process.

[0029] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bracket 1 is equipped with a lifting mechanism that drives the support box 2 to move up and down. The lifting mechanism includes a support plate 11 fixedly connected to the top of the bracket 1. The support plate 11 provides mounting support for the first motor 12, ensuring the stable operation of the first motor 12. The first motor 12 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support plate 11. The first motor 12 provides power for the rotation of the first screw 13, driving the lifting mechanism to operate. The output shaft of the first motor 12 passes through the support plate 11 and is fixedly connected to the first screw 13. The first screw 13 rotates under the drive of the first motor 12, driving the lifting plate 22 to move up and down, realizing the lifting of the support box 2. The first screw 13 is screwed into the lifting plate 22. A support plate 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the bracket 1 and rotatably connected to the bottom end of the first screw 13. The support plate 14 rotatably connects to the bottom end of the first screw 13, providing support for the first screw 13 and ensuring its stable rotation.

[0030] In this embodiment, when using the all-aluminum cooler welding positioning mechanism, the all-aluminum cooler is placed inside the U-shaped frame 3, and the dual-axis motor 31 is started. Its output shaft drives the second screws 33 at both ends to rotate, so that the sliding clamps 4, which are spirally connected to the second screws 33, move closer to each other, and the sliding block 44 locks the cooler, thus achieving initial fixation.

[0031] When the height of the cooler needs to be adjusted, the first motor 12 on the bracket 1 is started, and its output shaft drives the first screw 13 to rotate. The lifting plate 22, which is screwed into the first screw 13, moves up and down accordingly. The support box 2 is stably raised and lowered along the outer wall of the bracket 1 by the rollers 23. The support plate 14 supports the bottom end of the first screw 13 to ensure that the height adjustment process is smooth.

[0032] Afterwards, if it is necessary to adjust the angle of the cooler itself, start the third motor 43. Its output shaft drives the first clamp 41 to rotate. In conjunction with the second clamp 42 at the other end, it can drive the cooler to rotate around the horizontal axis, which is convenient for operating the welding parts on different sides.

[0033] If it is necessary to adjust the overall spatial orientation of the cooler, the second motor 21 inside the support box 2 is activated. Its output shaft drives the U-shaped frame 3 to rotate around the support box 2, thereby adjusting the angle of the cooler in the vertical plane and preventing the welding point from being in a blind spot. Finally, through the cooperation of the above components, the fixed angle, direction, and height of the cooler can be flexibly adjusted to adapt to different welding position requirements, reduce the frequency of workers adjusting their body posture, and improve welding efficiency and ease of operation.

[0034] The preferred embodiments of this utility model described above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to any specific implementation. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of this utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
