Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of welding equipment technology, and in particular relates to a clamp for rapid clamping and welding of cableway clamps. Background Technology
[0002] Passenger ropeways are "ropeways" used to transport passengers. There are two types: reciprocating ropeways and circulating ropeways. The former has a passenger car hanging on each of the support cables on both sides of the track support, and is pulled back and forth along the track by one or two traction cables; the latter has several passenger cars or chairlifts hanging at equal intervals on the steel wire ropes on both sides of the track support, and is driven by a drive motor to circulate the steel wire ropes.
[0003] Cableway clamps are an indispensable component of passenger cableway lines, and their quantity is relatively large compared to other components. They are also a common part in cableways, so the number produced each time is relatively large. During the welding process, because the welding work is concentrated in the center, the deformation is large, and correction is required after welding. When welding the conduit, the dimensions need to be checked, and when welding the center tube, it needs to be flipped for welding. The labor intensity is relatively high, and the operation is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inconvenient. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention addresses the technical problems mentioned in the background art, namely, the relatively large production quantities each time, the large deformation during welding due to the concentration of welding work in the center, the need for correction after welding, the need to check the dimensions when welding the conduit, and the need to flip the conduit when welding the center tube, resulting in relatively high labor intensity, time-consuming and labor-intensive operation, and inconvenience. Therefore, the present invention proposes a clamp for quick clamping and welding of cableway clamps.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A clamp for quick clamping and welding of cableway clamps includes a base plate and multiple frames fixedly connected to both sides of the base plate. A support column is fixedly installed on the base plate between the two side frames, and a rotating block is fixedly installed at the upper end of the support column. The cableway clamp is placed between the multiple frames.
[0007] Each of the frames is provided with a limiting mechanism on the side near the cableway clamp. The limiting mechanism includes an electric push rod and a clamping member rotatably connected to the drive end of the electric push rod. The clamping member is engaged with the edge of the cableway clamp.
[0008] Rotation mechanisms are provided on both sides of the base plate. Each rotation mechanism includes a rotating body and a driving mechanism. The rotating body is snapped onto the cableway clamp, and the driving mechanism is mounted on the frame. The driving mechanism rotates the cableway clamp through the rotating body.
[0009] Preferably, the cableway clamp includes a conduit, a steel plate at one end of the conduit, and a steel channel at the other end. The conduit is placed on a rotating block, and the steel plate and steel channel are respectively located on both sides of the rotating block. Holes for welding the conduit are provided on both the steel plate and the steel channel.
[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the electric push rod is rotatably connected to the surface of the frame, the drive end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to a telescopic shaft, the end of the telescopic shaft away from the electric push rod is rotatably connected to a clamping member, one end of the clamping member is rotatably connected to the surface of the frame, each clamping member has a groove, and multiple grooves respectively engage with the edges of the corresponding steel plates and steel channels.
[0011] Preferably, the rotating body includes a head, a middle section, and a tail section. The head of the rotating body is engaged with the cableway clamp, the driving mechanism is connected to the middle section of the rotating body, and the head, middle section, and tail section of the rotating body are fixedly connected together by connecting round blocks.
[0012] Preferably, the head of the rotating body is provided with a shaft and a card fixedly connected to one side of the shaft. The cards of the two rotating bodies abut against the edges of the steel plate and the steel channel, respectively. The shaft is inserted into the conduit and fits against half of the inner wall surface of the conduit. A linkage shaft is provided in the middle of the rotating body, and a sliding shaft is provided at the tail of the rotating body. The linkage shaft is fixedly connected to the same angular position of the two connecting blocks that are off-center. The sliding shaft is fixedly connected to the center position of the two connecting blocks. The driving mechanism is used to realize the movement of the linkage shaft along the center of the connecting blocks.
[0013] Preferably, one end of the slide shaft is provided with a magnet fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting circular block, and the other end is provided with an electromagnet. A first fixed shaft is slidably connected to the slide shaft, and the end of the first fixed shaft away from the slide shaft is fixedly connected to the frame.

The electric push rod extends and retracts at its drive end to rotate the clamping parts, which then engage with the edges of the steel plates. The limiting mechanisms fix the positions of the steel plates on both sides, thus fixing and restricting their positions. They also press the steel plates tightly against the conduit, allowing for direct welding at the connection point. Attached Figure Description

They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.
[0029] Reference Figures 1-7 A clamp for quick clamping and welding of cableway clamps includes a base plate 1 and multiple frames 2 fixedly connected to both sides of the base plate 1. A support column 13 is fixedly installed on the base plate 1 between the two side frames 2. A rotating block 12 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the support column 13. A cableway clamp is placed between the multiple frames 2. The cableway clamp includes a cable conduit 11 and a steel plate 3 at one end of the cable conduit 11 and a steel channel 7 at the other end. The cable conduit 11 is placed on the rotating block 12. The steel plate 3 and the steel channel 7 are respectively located on both sides of the rotating block 12. Holes for welding the cable conduit 11 are opened on both the steel plate 3 and the steel channel 7.
[0030] Each frame 2 is equipped with a limit mechanism on the side near the cableway clamp. The limit mechanism includes an electric push rod 5 and a clamping part 4 rotatably connected to the drive end of the electric push rod 5. The clamping part 4 is engaged with the edge of the steel plate 3 or the steel channel 7. Rotation mechanisms are provided on both sides of the base plate 1. The rotation mechanism includes a rotating body and a drive mechanism. The rotating body is engaged with the cableway clamp, and the drive mechanism is installed on the frame 2. The drive mechanism realizes the rotation of the cableway clamp through the rotating body.
[0031] The bottom of the electric push rod 5 is rotatably connected to the surface of the frame 2. The drive end of the electric push rod 5 is fixedly connected to a telescopic shaft 23. The end of the telescopic shaft 23 away from the electric push rod 5 is rotatably connected to the clamping member 4. One end of the clamping member 4 is rotatably connected to the surface of the frame 2. Each clamping member 4 has a groove 22. Multiple grooves 22 respectively engage with the edges of the corresponding steel plate 3 and steel channel 7. When the drive end of the electric push rod 5 extends or retracts, it can drive the clamping member 4 to rotate. Multiple limiting mechanisms clamp and fix the steel plate 3 or steel channel 7, thus fixing the steel plate 3 or steel channel 7 on both sides of the conduit 11, which facilitates welding operations.
[0032] The rotating body includes a head, a middle section, and a tail. The head of the rotating body is provided with a shaft 16 and a card 18 fixedly connected to one side of the shaft 16. The cards 18 of the two rotating bodies respectively abut against the edges of the steel plate 3 and the steel channel 7. The shaft 16 is inserted into the conduit 11 and fits against half of the inner wall surface of the conduit 11. The middle section of the rotating body is provided with a linkage shaft 19, and the tail section is provided with a sliding shaft 9. The head, middle section, and tail of the rotating body are fixedly connected together by connecting blocks 17. The linkage shaft 19 is fixedly connected to the two connecting blocks 17 at the same angular position off from the center. The drive mechanism is used to realize the movement of the linkage shaft 19 along the center of the connecting blocks 17. The drive mechanism drives the linkage shaft 19 to make a circular motion, thereby driving the connecting blocks 17 and the head of the rotating body to rotate. The head of the rotating body is inserted into the cableway clamp. When the linkage shaft 19 moves, it can drive the cableway clamp to rotate through the head, thereby enabling the cableway clamp to be flipped and welded.
[0033] One end of the sliding shaft 9 is provided with a magnet 15 fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting block 17, and the other end is provided with an electromagnet 14. A first fixed shaft 6 is slidably connected to the sliding shaft 9. The first fixed shaft 6 is fixedly connected to the frame 2. The electromagnet 14 is fixedly connected to the first fixed shaft 6. When placing and removing the cableway clamp, the rotating mechanism needs to be unloaded from the cableway clamp. The sliding shaft 9 drives the rotating body to move relative to the first fixed shaft 6, thereby separating the head of the rotating body from the cableway clamp. Reverse movement can limit the head of the rotating body by the cableway clamp. There is a magnetic force between the electromagnet 14 and the magnet 15. Under the action of electricity, they can attract or repel each other, thereby pushing the sliding shaft 9 to move back and forth relative to the clamping member 4.
[0034] The drive mechanism includes a low-speed motor 8 fixedly connected to the frame 2 via a second fixed shaft 21. A turntable 20 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the low-speed motor 8. A traction shaft 10 is rotatably connected to the turntable 20 away from the center. One end of the traction shaft 10 is slidably sleeved on the linkage shaft 19. The turntable 20 and the linkage shaft 19 have the same diameter. The low-speed motor 8 can drive the turntable 20 to rotate via the drive end. When the turntable 20 rotates, it will drive the traction shaft 10 to move synchronously. Then, the traction shaft 10 can drive the linkage shaft 19 to perform a circular motion, realizing the flipping effect of the rotating body. The rotating block 12 has a V-shaped groove 24. The wire tube 11 is set in the V-shaped groove 24. The V-shaped groove 24 can better accommodate the wire tube 11. At the same time, the wire tube 11 can also rotate in the V-shaped groove 24 to flip.
[0035] In the embodiment of the applied technical solution, during welding, the conduit 11 is placed inside the rotating block 12, and the steel plate 3 and steel channel 7 are placed at both ends of the rotating block 12. The steel plate 3 and steel channel 7 are provided with holes that fit with the conduit 11. When the conduit 11, steel plate 3, and steel channel 7 are in place, the various limiting mechanisms will operate. The electric push rod 5 rotates the clamping member 4 through the extension and retraction of the drive end. Then, the clamping member 4 will engage with the edges of the steel plate 3 and steel channel 7. The positions of the steel plate 3 and steel channel 7 are fixed by the various limiting mechanisms. The limiting mechanisms have the function of fixing and restricting the positions of the steel plate 3 and steel channel 7, and at the same time, they can also press the steel plate 3 and steel channel 7 tightly against the conduit 11, and the connection can be welded directly.
[0036] During welding, the rotating mechanism is located on both sides of the cableway clamp, and the head of the rotating body does not contact the cableway clamp. The presence of the rotating mechanism does not affect the welding operation at the connection.
[0037] During welding operations, the lower half of the connection is welded. When the cableway clamp needs to be rotated, it is flipped over to weld the other upper half. When the electromagnet 14 is energized, it has an attractive or repulsive force on the magnet 15. When the electromagnet 14 repels the magnet 15, it can push the magnet 15 to move the sliding shaft 9 away from the first fixed shaft 6, thereby moving the entire rotating body. The insertion shaft 16 at the head of the rotating body is inserted into the cable tube 11. The clip 18 is engaged with the edges of the steel plate 3 and the steel channel 7. Then, the linkage shaft 19 is operated through the drive mechanism. The low-speed motor 8 The turntable 20 is driven to rotate by the drive end. The turntable 20 drives the linkage shaft 19 to move through the traction shaft 10. The tail of the rotating body is restricted by the first fixed shaft 6, and the head is restricted by the cableway clamp. Thus, when the traction shaft 10 drives the linkage shaft 19 to move, the head of the rotating body and each connecting block 17 can rotate. Then, the rotation effect of the cableway clamp is achieved through the head of the rotating body. The cable tube 11 can rotate directly on the rotating block 12, which facilitates the welding of the rear half. When the cableway clamp is rotated, the limiting mechanism has disengaged from the cableway clamp.
[0038] This device can simultaneously perform welding operations at the connection points after the steel plate 3, steel channel 7, and conduit 11 are in place. The rotating mechanism can automatically rotate the cableway clamp, so that after one half of the connection is welded, the other half can be directly rotated for welding. The operation is convenient, efficient, time-saving, and labor-saving, and can achieve dimensional consistency. After welding is completed, the limiting mechanism disengages from the cableway clamp, and the welded cableway clamp can be directly removed.
[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
