[0002] The robotic welding gun is a commonly used automated tool in automobile assembly. During the normal use of the robotic welding gun, it is common for the welding gun to collide with the workpiece. Once the welding gun touches the workpiece, it may cause the welding gun to deform, and the original welding trajectory of the robotic welding gun will change, which will cause the robot to be unable to accurately weld the weld.

[0003] When calibrating the welding gun, the welding gun needs to be fixed to ensure that the welding gun does not shake during the calibration. However, some existing calibration devices need to be fixed with bolts, resulting in low efficiency in fixing the welding gun. At the same time, when calibrating the welding gun, a calibrator is generally used to frequently calibrate and adjust the welding gun, resulting in low efficiency in adjusting the welding gun. Therefore, a robot welding gun calibration device is urgently needed to improve the efficiency of welding gun calibration. Summary of the invention

[0008] Furthermore, a further technical solution of the present invention is that a spring sheet is clamped on the inner side of the first clamping slot, and one end of the spring sheet is detachably connected to the positioning member by a bolt.

[0009] Furthermore, a further technical solution of the present invention is that a clamping block is fixedly connected to the other side of the positioning member, a second limiting groove is clamped on one side of the clamping block, and the second limiting groove is provided on both sides of the fixing member.

[0010] Furthermore, a further technical solution of the present invention is that a fourth limiting groove, a third limiting groove and a first limiting groove are sequentially opened inside the fixing member.

[0011] Furthermore, a further technical solution of the present invention is that the curved surface of the fourth limit groove is sleeved with a connecting rod, the curved surface of one end of the connecting rod is sleeved with a return spring, the curved surface of the return spring is sleeved on the inner surface of the third limit groove, and the upper end of the third limit groove is slidably connected to a limiting plate.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0016] The welding gun fixed at one end of the robot moves to the upper side of the push plate and moves downward with the movement of the robot. As the push plate moves downward, the clamping plates on both sides of the upper side of the push plate move toward each other synchronously and fix the welding gun.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The specific implementation of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a robot welding gun correction device includes a correction wheel 13, which reciprocates along the correction slide groove 8 arranged on the positioning member 7. A clamping plate 15 is arranged on one side of the positioning member 7, and a push plate 2 is arranged on the lower side of the clamping plate 15. A connecting rod 19 is arranged on the lower side of the push plate 2, and a return spring 12 is arranged on the curved surface of the connecting rod 19. Under the action of the gravity of the welding gun, the push plate 2 is driven to move downward, and the clamping plates 15 and the return spring 12 at both ends of the push plate 2 move synchronously. The clamping plate 15 fixes the welding gun and the return spring 12 is contracted by force, so that the push plate 2 that loses gravity can automatically return to the upper position.

[0026] In this specific embodiment, the welding gun fixed at one end of the robot moves to the upper side of the push plate 2 and moves downward with the movement of the robot. As the push plate 2 moves downward, the clamping plates 15 on both sides of the upper end of the push plate 2 move toward each other synchronously and fix the welding gun. At the same time, the return spring 12 on the lower side of the push plate 2 is forced to shrink to fix the welding gun. Then the welding gun is put in the middle of the two correction wheels 13, and the correction wheels 13 are reciprocated along the correction slide groove 8 to achieve rapid correction of the welding gun. When the welding gun moves upward, the return spring 12 drives the push plate 2 to move upward and makes the two clamping plates 15 move synchronously relative to each other, so that the welding gun is separated from the correction device.

[0027] In another specific embodiment of the present invention, the cross-section of the positioning member 7 is L-shaped, and a correction groove 8 is opened inside one side of the positioning member 7. A connecting shaft 11 is slidably connected inside the correction groove 8. A correction wheel 13 is sleeved on the middle part of the connecting shaft 11. The correction wheel 13 reciprocates along the length direction of the correction groove 8 to calibrate the welding gun.

[0028] Specifically, the two ends of the connecting shaft 11 are fixedly connected with the handle 9, and a first slot 91 is provided on the opposite side of the handle 9. The first slot 91 is engaged with the spring piece 10 to fix the correction wheel 13 so that the correction wheel 13 remains stable.

[0029] Specifically, a spring piece 10 is clamped on the inner side of the first clamping slot 91 , and one end of the spring piece 10 is detachably connected to the positioning member 7 via a bolt, so that the spring piece 10 can be easily replaced, thereby extending the service life of the equipment and reducing costs.

[0030] Specifically, a clamping block 6 is fixedly connected to the other side of the positioning member 7, and a second limiting groove 5 is clamped on one side of the clamping block 6. The second limiting groove 5 is opened on both sides of the fixing member 1. The correction part can be quickly replaced through the second limiting groove 5, and welding guns of different specifications can be calibrated.

[0031] Specifically, the fixing member 1 has a fourth limiting groove 20, a third limiting groove 18 and a first limiting groove 3 in sequence, and the axes of the fourth limiting groove 20, the third limiting groove 18 and the first limiting groove 3 are distributed on the same straight line and are distributed in a stepped manner from bottom to top.

[0032] Specifically, the curved surface of the fourth limiting groove 20 is sleeved with a connecting rod 19, and the curved surface at one end of the connecting rod 19 is sleeved with a reset spring 12. The reset spring 12 facilitates the separation of the welding gun and improves the correction efficiency of the welding gun. The curved surface of the reset spring 12 is sleeved on the inner surface of the third limiting groove 18. The upper end of the third limiting groove 18 is slidably connected to a limiting plate 17. The limiting plate 17 limits the position of the connecting rod 19 so that the connecting rod 19 does not shake during movement, thereby allowing the clamping plates 15 on both sides to move synchronously.

[0033] Specifically, the upper end of the connecting rod 19 is fixedly connected to the push plate 2, and connecting plates 22 are hinged on both sides of the push plate 2. One end of the connecting plate 22 is hinged to a connecting block 21, and the upper end of the connecting block 21 is fixedly connected to a clamping plate 15. An arc-shaped clamping groove is provided on one side of the clamping plate 15 to improve the stability of the connection to the welding gun.

[0034] Specifically, the clamping plate 15 is slidably connected to the curved surface of the slide groove 14 , and the slide groove 14 is provided with the upper end of the fixing member 1 and is fixed by the fixing plate 4 .

[0035] Specifically, the connecting plate 22 is sleeved inside the fifth limiting groove 23 . The fifth limiting groove 23 is provided inside the fixing member 1 and has a cross section that is an inverted isosceles trapezoid with the first limiting groove 3 .
