Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pantograph technology, specifically to a welding fixture for the lower arm of a pantograph. Background Technology
[0002] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN218695526U, published on March 24, 2023, which discloses a flexible tooling for welding pantograph frames. The tooling includes a worktable with multiple positioning holes arranged on both the tabletop and the surrounding panels. Multiple support members, horizontal fixing members, and vertical fixing members are connected to the tabletop and the surrounding panels. Each support member includes a support base and a mounting rod connected to the bottom of the support base. The horizontal fixing members include an L-shaped mounting block and a quick-release clamp connected to the L-shaped mounting block for horizontal locking. The vertical fixing members include a vertical rod, a horizontal rod, and a vertical locking rod. This invention uses a worktable with multiple positioning holes as a standard platform and designs integrated, detachable support members, horizontal fixing members, and vertical fixing members. This design facilitates easy assembly, disassembly, and adjustment, effectively solving the problems of dimensional positioning and deformation control in mass welding production of pantograph frames, thus improving welding quality and production capacity.
[0003] However, during the processing of this pantograph welding fixture, it is not convenient to automatically rotate the pantograph according to the usage requirements, nor is it convenient to automatically realize the full welding operation of the pantograph lower arm. Manual rotation is not conducive to avoiding the displacement of the pantograph lower arm, which directly affects the accuracy of the welding position of the parts, does not meet the user's needs, and reduces welding efficiency.

The device is fixedly connected to a second gear 45 and two first sprockets 46. The surfaces of both rotating shafts 43 are fixedly connected to second sprockets 47. Chains 48, made of alloy steel, are meshed between the two first sprockets 46 and adjacent second sprockets 47. These chains 48 are durable and tightly meshed with the two sprockets, preventing slippage, detachment, and breakage. Clamping components 49 are provided at opposite ends of the two rotating shafts 43. The first gear 44 and second gear 45 mesh with each other. By setting a clamping and flipping mechanism 4, the pantograph lower arm workpiece is clamped and fixed, preventing displacement during welding and thus welding failure.

A horizontal screw 75 is fixedly connected to the output end of the horizontal motor 74. A second slider 76 is slidably connected to the surface of each of the two horizontal guide rods 72. A vertical motor 77 is fixedly connected to the front of the rear second slider 76. Both the horizontal motor 74 and the vertical motor 77 are servo-geared motors, capable of precisely controlling the rotation speed and angle of the output shaft. Both are electrically connected to an external power supply and controlled by an external program. The vertical motor 77 has a vertical screw 78 fixedly connected to its output end.

It achieves efficient welding by inputting welding parameters through a preset PLC program and coordinating with the internal welding mechanism. Since this is existing technology, it will not be described in detail in this article. The automatic welding device 2 is electrically connected to the power supply and is controlled by an external program.
[0021] The bottom of the base 1 is fixedly connected to four support feet 8. The design of multiple support feet 8 ensures the stability of the entire device. The bottom of each of the four support feet 8 is fixedly connected to a support base plate 9.
[0022] The two clamping components 49 have the same structure and are symmetrically distributed on opposite ends of the two rotating shafts 43. Stable clamping is achieved through the cooperation of the two clamping components 49.
[0023] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.
[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the workpiece is placed between four clamping plates 497. Then, the third motor 492 on the left is started, causing it to drive the third gear 495 to rotate via its output shaft. When the third gear 495 rotates, it drives the fourth gear 496, which rotates within the inner wall of the fixing groove 491 via a double-toothed screw 493. When the double-toothed screw 493 rotates, it drives the two clamping plates 497, causing them to move along the surface of the guide rod 494 towards opposite sides, thus clamping the left side of the workpiece with the two clamping plates 497 on the left. This operation is then continued by starting the third motor on the right. The machine 492 clamps the right side of the workpiece, securing it in place with two clamping components 49. Then, the first motor 41 is started, driving the first gear 44 to rotate via its output shaft. The rotation of the first gear 44 drives the second gear 45, causing it to rotate between the inner walls of the two support plates 3 via a connecting shaft 42. The rotation of the connecting shaft 42 drives the two first sprockets 46 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the two first sprockets 46, in turn, drives the two second sprockets 47 via two chains 48. These second sprockets 47 then drive the two rotating shafts 43 to rotate within the inner walls of the two support plates 3. 3. When rotating, the two clamping components 49 also rotate synchronously, causing the clamped workpiece to rotate and perform a flipping operation. Then, the vertical motor 77 is started, causing the vertical screw 78 at the output end to rotate. When the vertical screw 78 rotates, it drives the connecting table 79, which in turn drives the horizontal screw 75 and the horizontal motor 74. The horizontal screw 75 and the horizontal motor 74 move forward between the surfaces of the two vertical guide rods 71 via the two first sliders 73, causing the connecting table 79 to drive the automatic welding device 2 forward (by controlling the start of the vertical motor 77 and reversing its output shaft, backward adjustment can be achieved). Then... Start the horizontal motor 74, which drives the horizontal screw 75 at the output end to rotate. The rotation of the horizontal screw 75 drives the connecting table 79, which in turn drives the vertical screw 78 and the vertical motor 77. The vertical screw 78 and the vertical motor 77 move to the left between the surfaces of the two horizontal guide rods 72 via the two second sliders 76. This causes the connecting table 79 to drive the automatic welding device 2 to move to the left (by controlling the start of the horizontal motor 74 and reversing its output shaft, the rightward adjustment can be achieved). After adjusting the automatic welding device 2 to the required welding position, finally start the automatic welding device 2 to perform automatic welding on the workpiece.
