[0047] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages disclosed in the embodiments of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this application.

[0048] This application provides a welding process equipment for irregularly shaped column structures. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the irregular column structure in the embodiments of this application, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the irregular column structure 100 includes an outer side plate 200 and an inner side plate 300. Both the outer side plate 200 and the inner side plate 300 are irregularly shaped rectangular structures. The outer side plate 200 and the inner side plate 300 have similar heights, and the width of the inner side plate 300 is smaller than that of the outer side plate 200. The inner side plate 300 has a through hole 310, and the outer side plate 200 has a splicing groove along its own height direction. After the outer side plate 200 and the inner side plate 300 are spliced ​​together, the inner side plate 300 is located in the splicing groove.

[0049] Before welding, the outer side plate 200 and the inner side plate 300 need to be tightly assembled. Welding is then performed on the gap between the outer side plate 200 and the inner side plate 300. However, due to the irregular shape of the outer side plate 200 and the height of the inner side plate 300, alignment errors are prone to occur when manually assembling and aligning them, which affects the accuracy of welding and the quality of the finished product.

[0050] Therefore, this application provides a welding process equipment for an irregular column structure 100, which is specifically designed for the irregular column structure 100. It can accurately position the inner and outer side plates 200 and fully position and clamp them before assembling the inner and outer side plates 200. This ensures the accuracy of the position of the irregular column structure 100 after assembly and clamping, guarantees the consistency and reliability of repeated positioning for each clamping, and a high first-pass welding qualification rate. It saves labor costs and improves welding efficiency.

[0051] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a welding process equipment for an irregularly shaped column structure provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 ,like Figure 2 As shown, the welding equipment for the irregular column structure includes a base 1, a fixed clamping mechanism 2, and a movable clamping mechanism 3, with the fixed clamping mechanism 2 and the movable clamping mechanism 3 mounted on the base 1.

[0052] In this embodiment of the application, the base 1 is a rectangular platform used to support various mechanisms installed on the base 1.

[0053] In one possible embodiment, a support plate 4 is provided perpendicularly to the base 1, and the support plate 4 is used to support various mechanisms provided on the base 1. The fixed clamping mechanism 2 and the movable clamping mechanism 3 are provided on the base 1 along the length direction of the support plate 4.

[0054] In other possible embodiments, the base 1 is provided with two sets of fixed clamping mechanisms 2 and movable clamping mechanisms 3, and the two sets of fixed clamping mechanisms 2 and movable clamping mechanisms 3 are arranged symmetrically, which further accelerates the positioning efficiency of the irregular column structure 100 before welding. More sets of fixed clamping mechanisms 2 and movable clamping mechanisms 3 may also be provided on the base 1, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0055] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a welding process equipment for an irregularly shaped column structure provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 ,like Figure 3 As shown, the fixing and clamping mechanism 2 includes a first positioning component 21, a first clamping component 22, a second clamping component 23, a third clamping component 24, and a fourth clamping component 25.

[0056] In one possible embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first positioning component 21 includes an outer plate positioning plate 212 and an outer plate positioning groove 211 disposed perpendicular to the base 1. The height of the outer plate positioning plate 212 is similar to that of the outer plate 200, and the whole is a semi-enclosed structure, forming the outer plate positioning groove 211. The outer plate positioning groove is used to position the outer plate 200 of the irregular column structure.

[0057] Continue as Figure 3 As shown, in one possible embodiment, the first pressing assembly 22, the second pressing assembly 23, and the third pressing assembly 24 are arranged from bottom to top along the height direction of the positioning groove of the outer side plate 200, and are used to press the bottom, middle, and top of the outer side plate 200, respectively. The fourth pressing assembly 25 is disposed at the top of the positioning groove of the outer side plate 200, and is used to apply pressure to the outer side plate 200 at a preset angle downward.

[0058] In one possible embodiment, the first pressing assembly 22 includes a first pressing drive 221 and a first pressing plate 222. The first pressing drive 221 is disposed on the base 1 and arranged along the width direction of the support plate 4. The first pressing drive 221 is preferably configured as a telescopic cylinder, and the telescopic shaft of the telescopic cylinder is perpendicular to the first pressing plate 222. When the telescopic shaft of the telescopic cylinder extends, it drives the pressing surface of the first pressing plate 222 to align with the side edge of the positioning groove of the outer plate 200, pressing the bottom of the outer plate 200 to achieve accurate positioning.

[0059] The width of the first pressing plate 222 is greater than the sum of the widths of the inner and outer plates. The first pressing plate 222 is biased toward the direction of the moving pressing mechanism 3. With the above arrangement, the bottoms of the inner and outer plates can be aligned.

[0060] In one possible embodiment, the second pressing assembly 23 includes a second pressing drive 231 and a second pressing plate 232. The second pressing drive 231 is disposed on the outer side plate positioning plate of the first positioning assembly 21 and is arranged along the width direction of the support plate 4, with its height located at the middle position of the outer side plate positioning plate. The second pressing drive 231 is preferably configured as a telescopic cylinder, with the telescopic shaft of the telescopic cylinder perpendicular to the second pressing plate 232. The length of the second pressing plate 232 is approximately equal to the height of the irregular column structure 100. By applying force from the middle through the telescopic cylinder, the entire side of the outer side plate is pushed into the outer side plate positioning groove, achieving precise positioning of the outer side plate along the width direction.

[0061] In one possible embodiment, the third pressing assembly 24 includes a third pressing drive 241 and a third pressing plate 242. The third pressing drive 241 is disposed on the positioning plate of the outer side plate 200 of the first positioning assembly 21 and is disposed along the height direction of the support plate 4. The third pressing drive 241 is preferably configured as a telescopic cylinder. The telescopic shaft of the telescopic cylinder is perpendicular to the third pressing plate 242. When the telescopic shaft of the telescopic cylinder retracts, it drives the third pressing plate 242 to move downward and press the outer side plate downward, thereby achieving precise positioning of the outer side plate in the height direction.

[0062] In one possible embodiment, the fourth pressing assembly 25 includes a fourth pressing drive 251 and a fourth pressing plate 252. A connecting plate extends from the outer side plate of the first positioning assembly 21. The fourth pressing drive 251 is disposed on the connecting plate and is inclined downward at a preset angle. The fourth pressing drive 251 is preferably configured as a telescopic cylinder, and the telescopic shaft of the telescopic cylinder is perpendicular to the fourth pressing plate 252.

[0063] Among them, such as Figure 5 As shown, the shape of the fourth pressing plate 252 is adapted to the shape of the top of the irregular column structure 100. The fourth pressing plate 252 includes an inclined pressing surface 253 and a horizontal pressing surface 254 for contacting the outer plate 200. There is a preset deviation between the inclination angle of the inclined pressing surface 253 and the setting angle of the fourth pressing drive member 251. When the telescopic shaft of the fourth pressing drive member 251 extends, the inclined pressing surface 253 and the horizontal pressing surface 254 of the fourth pressing block can simultaneously apply force to the outer plate 200, firmly positioning the outer plate 200 and making the outer plate 200 tightly fit the outer plate positioning groove.

[0064] In one possible embodiment, such as Figure 6As shown, the fixing and pressing mechanism 2 also includes a magnetic positioning element 26. The magnetic positioning element 26 is disposed on the outer side plate positioning plate 212 and is used to adsorb and position the outer side plate 200. The magnetic positioning element 26 is arranged in two sets along the height direction of the positioning groove of the outer side plate 200, so that the outer side plate 200 can be pre-positioned before each pressing mechanism is pressed, thus preventing the outer side plate 200 from tipping over.

[0065] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of a moving clamping mechanism for a welding process equipment for an irregularly shaped column structure provided in an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 7 As shown, the movable pressing mechanism 3 includes a second positioning component 31 and a moving component 32. The second positioning component 31 includes an inner side plate positioning groove 311 perpendicular to the base 1, which is used to position the inner side plate 300 of the irregular column structure. The inner side plate 300 positioning groove of the second positioning component 31 and the outer side plate positioning groove of the first positioning component 21 are arranged opposite to each other. The moving component 32 is connected to the second positioning component 31 and drives the second positioning component 31 to move towards the direction of the first positioning component, thereby moving, assembling and pressing the inner side plate 300 in the inner side plate positioning groove 311 towards the direction of the outer side plate in the outer side plate positioning groove.

[0066] Continue as Figure 7 As shown, the second positioning component 31 also includes an inner side plate positioning plate 313. Four sets of limiting blocks are provided on both sides of the inner side plate 300 along its own height direction, forming an inner side plate positioning groove 311 for placing the inner side plate 300.

[0067] In one possible embodiment, a positioning hole 312 is provided on the inner side plate positioning groove 311, and the positioning hole 312 is located at the same position as the through hole of the inner side plate 300. The movable pressing mechanism 3 also includes an inner side plate positioning assembly 34, which includes a rotary drive 341 and a rotary positioning member 342. The rotary drive 341 is disposed on the side of the inner side plate positioning groove 311 opposite to the outer side plate positioning groove, and the rotation shaft of the rotary drive 341 passes through the positioning hole 312. The rotary positioning member 342 is disposed on the side of the inner side plate positioning groove 311 facing the outer side plate positioning groove and is connected to the rotary shaft. The rotary drive 341 can be configured as a rotary cylinder or a motor, which can drive the rotary positioning member 342 to rotate a specific angle.

[0068] For example, both the through hole and the rotating positioning member 342 are rectangular in shape. When their positions and angles correspond, the inner side plate 300 can pass through the rotating positioning member 342 and be movably placed on the inner side plate positioning plate 313. However, when the rotating positioning member 342 is at the first angle, there is an angle deviation between the rotating positioning member 342 and the through hole, and the rotating positioning member 342 passes through the through hole of the inner side plate 300 to lock the inner side plate 300. In the embodiments of this application, the first angle is not specifically defined, but refers to the angle at which the inner side plate 300 can be locked.

[0069] In one possible embodiment, since the inner side plate 300 is relatively high, in order to achieve precise positioning of the inner side plate 300, the moving pressing mechanism 3 includes three sets of inner side plate positioning components 34. The three sets of inner side plate positioning components 34 are arranged from bottom to top along the height direction of the inner side plate positioning groove 311, and are respectively used to position the bottom, middle and top of the inner side plate 300. More sets of inner side plate positioning components 34 may also be provided on the inner side plate positioning plate 313, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0070] Continue as Figure 7 As shown, the moving component 32 includes a linear drive member, which is disposed on the support plate 4 along the length direction of the support plate 4. The telescopic end of the linear drive member is connected to the middle position of the inner side plate positioning plate 313, and the telescopic end of the linear drive member is perpendicular to the inner side plate positioning plate 313. The linear drive member is preferably configured as a telescopic cylinder. When the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder extends, it drives the inner side plate positioning plate 313 and the inner side plate 300 to move in the direction of the fixed pressing mechanism.

[0071] In one possible embodiment, the movable pressing mechanism 3 further includes a guide mechanism 33, which includes a slide rail 331 and a slider 332. The slide rail 331 is arranged along the length direction of the support plate 4, and the slider 332 is slidably arranged on the slide rail 331. The slider 332 is connected to the inner side plate positioning plate 313 of the second positioning component 31 through a connecting plate, thereby driving the second positioning component 31 to move along the slide rail 331.

[0072] In this embodiment, the movable pressing mechanism 3 includes two sets of guide mechanisms 33, which are arranged in parallel on the support plate 4 to ensure that the movable pressing mechanism 3 moves to the fixed pressing mechanism, thereby ensuring the alignment of the inner plate 300 and the outer plate.

[0073] On the other hand, embodiments of the present invention describe the working principle of the above-mentioned welding process equipment, specifically as follows:

[0074] Positioning stage: The outer side plate 200 to be welded is placed in the outer side plate positioning groove 211 of the first positioning component 21, and the magnetic positioning component 26 holds the outer side plate 200 to ensure that the outer side plate 200 does not tip over; the inner side plate 300 to be welded is placed in the inner side plate positioning groove 311 of the second positioning component 31, and the three sets of inner side plate positioning components 34 operate to fix the inner side plate 300.

[0075] Assembly stage: After the second clamping component 23 moves to the designated position and clamps the side of the outer panel 200, pressure is released. After the third clamping component 24 moves and rotates to the designated position and clamps the top of the outer panel 200, pressure is released. After the fourth clamping component 25 moves to the designated position and clamps the top inclined edge of the outer panel 200, pressure is released. After the moving component 32 moves with the inner panel 300 in the second positioning component 31 to the designated position and fits against the outer panel 200 in the first positioning component 21, pressure is released. After the first clamping component 22 moves to the designated position and clamps the inner panel 300, pressure is released. After the outer side plate 200 is depressurized, the second pressing component 23 presses the outer side plate 200 and maintains pressure. The third pressing component 24 rotates and presses down to press the outer side plate 200 and maintains pressure. The fourth pressing component 25 presses the outer side plate 200 and maintains pressure. The moving component 32 moves with the inner side plate 300 in the second positioning component 31 to fit and maintain pressure with the outer side plate 200 in the first positioning component 21. The first pressing component 22 presses the inner side plate 300 and the outer side plate 200 and maintains pressure. After all pressing actions are completed, laser welding is performed.
