Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicle body floor assembly, and in particular to a plasma welding device and method for a vehicle body floor assembly. Background Art

[0002] The underbody assembly is a very important part of the vehicle structure, forming the bottom frame of the vehicle. This component is usually composed of multiple parts welded or connected together by other means to form a solid overall structure, such as Figure 2 What is shown is a schematic diagram of the structure of an existing vehicle body floor assembly, including a bottom beam 800, a support beam 801 and a support rod 802, wherein the support beam 801 is welded at the center of the bottom beam 800, and the support rod 802 is welded to the support beam 801. There are usually two ways to weld the vehicle body floor assembly, the first is welding by a welding device, and the second is manual welding.

[0003] Chinese patent application No. 2022113146773 discloses a car body welding device, including a welding table, a clamping mechanism and a welding robot arm; the clamping mechanism includes a first frame, a second frame, a first driving member and a locking assembly; the first frame is installed on the welding table and a plurality of first positioning columns are slidably inserted thereon, one end of the second frame is hingedly connected to one end of the first frame, and a plurality of second positioning columns are vertically and slidably inserted in the second frame. In the present invention, when the first frame and the second frame are interlocked with each other, the columns of the side enclosure of the car body will squeeze the corresponding number of first positioning columns and second positioning columns to clamp the side enclosure of the car body in a surrounding form, but it is obvious that the above-mentioned welding device is not convenient for Figure 2 The underbody assembly shown is welded.

[0004] The process of manual welding is as follows: First, the worker uses a welding gun to weld the support rod 802 to the support beam 801, and then moves the welded parts of the support beam 801 and the support rod 802 to the center of the bottom beam 800. The worker then uses a welding gun to weld the support beam 801 to the center of the bottom beam 800. However, manual welding is cumbersome to operate and reduces the welding effect. Therefore, we propose a plasma welding device and method for a vehicle body floor assembly. Summary of the invention
