A method for assembling a crane before welding, characterized in that: The method uses the plate welding tool described in claim 5, and the process is as follows: (1) Open the tooling: control the telescopic cylinder to extend the piston rod, and control the swing cylinder to retract the tongue depressor; (2) Clamping and positioning of the lower diaphragm plate: The lower diaphragm plate of the lifting horse is placed on the support plate according to the hole positioning by manual or robot, and handle 1 or handle 2 is manually loosened, and the straight edge positioning block or arc edge positioning block is adjusted to position the side of the diaphragm plate and then handle 1 or handle 2 is locked; (3) Clamping and positioning of the panel and upper diaphragm: The panel and upper diaphragm of the hoist are installed coaxially and orientably on the lower diaphragm manually or by a robot. The swing cylinder is controlled to make the tongue press out, and the telescopic cylinder is controlled to make the tongue press the upper diaphragm of the workpiece. If the workpiece is long, the driven end needs to be adjusted before installation to make it fit the installation hole distance of the panel and meet the requirements of the panel placement level. When clamping, the self-locking pressure plate needs to be manually put on the self-locking rod, and the end of the self-locking pressure plate is hit with a hammer to press the other end of the panel, so that the workpiece is completely positioned and clamped. (4) Spot welding: Use a robot or manual labor to spot weld the upper membrane plate and the panel together, then start the flip drive device to flip the workpiece 180°, and spot weld the lower membrane plate and the panel together; (5) Installation and spot welding of web and bracket: Use robots or manual labor to install the web and bracket on the panel according to the design requirements of the drawings, and then perform spot welding. The hoisting horse assembly is completed; (6) Loosen the assembled parts: Start the rotary platform and rotate it 180° to send the assembled parts to the working area of ​​the next process, and control the telescopic cylinder and the swing cylinder to loosen the assembled parts; if it is a long workpiece, use a hammer to hit the end of the self-locking pressure plate at the driven end in the opposite direction before starting the rotary platform, remove the self-locking pressure plate, and loosen the other end of the panel; (7) Unloading: The assembled parts are taken down by the handling robot and enter the next process. At the same time, the assembly of the next hanging workpiece is continued on another assembly machine, and the above process is repeated in sequence.
