[0002] Among metal parts, there are many frame-shaped parts, and the frame-shaped parts are welded from four frame components. The four frame components are combined into a complete frame, and the four frame components are connected by welding. Before welding, the frame components need to be positioned to avoid positional deviation of the frame components.

[0003] When welding the frame parts, the two frame parts are brought into contact with each other, and the two frame parts are clamped by a fixture to position the frame parts, and then the frame parts are welded by a welding machine. The frame parts are placed in the fixture, and the gap at the bottom between the two frame parts is in contact with the fixture, so that the welding machine cannot weld the gap at the bottom. Therefore, after welding the top, outside and inside of the frame parts, the frame parts need to be taken out, and then the frame parts are turned over, the frame parts are turned over, and then the frame parts are placed in the fixture, and the frame parts are clamped and positioned by the fixture. The frame-shaped parts are welded from four frame parts, and the frame-shaped parts have four corners, so they need to be welded four times. Each welding requires manual turning over, and the fixture also needs to be manually operated. The operation is cumbersome, which affects work efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0031] Embodiment 2: Based on Embodiment 1, Figure 6 As shown, a conveying mechanism is also included, which includes a frame 22 and a conveyor belt 23. The frame 22 is connected to the right side of the mounting platform 1, and the conveyor belt 23 is installed on the top of the frame 22.

[0032] like Figure 7-Figure 9As shown, it also includes a limiting mechanism, which includes a slide plate 24, a spring 25, a guide rod 26, a limiting plate 27, a bidirectional screw rod 28, a lifting assembly and a guide assembly. The slide plate 24 is slidably connected to the upper right part of the frame 22, and two springs 25 are connected between the bottom of the slide plate 24 and the frame 22. Two guide rods 26 are connected to the front and rear sides of the slide plate 24. The two guide rods 26 on the front side are slidably connected to the limiting plate 27, and the two guide rods 26 on the rear side are also slidably connected to the limiting plate 27. The left side of the slide plate 24 is rotatably connected to the bidirectional screw rod 28, and the bidirectional screw rod 28 and the limiting plate 27 are threadedly connected. The lifting assembly is used to lift the limiting plate 27 so that the limiting plate 27 no longer blocks the positioning block 6, and the guide assembly is used to guide the frame parts so that the frame parts can fall smoothly onto the placement block 4.

[0033] like Fig. 9 As shown, the lifting assembly includes a contact rod 29 and a cam 30. The contact rod 29 is connected to the sides of the two limit plates 27 that are close to each other. The front and rear ends of the driven shaft of the conveyor belt 23 are connected to the cam 30, and the cam 30 is in contact with the contact rod 29.

[0034] like Figure 7 and Fig. 9 As shown, the guide assembly includes a slide bar 31 and a stop bar 32 . The slide bar 31 is slidably connected to the two limit plates 27 , and the stop bar 32 is connected to the middle of the bottom of the slide bar 31 .

[0035] Initially, the cam 30 presses the contact rod 29, the bottom of the limit plate 27 is flush with the top of the placement block 4, the spring 25 is in a compressed state, and the frame parts are transferred to the conveyor belt 23. The conveyor belt 23 runs intermittently, and the conveyor belt 23 runs once, the cam 30 rotates one circle, and the conveyor belt 23 conveys the frame parts to the left. The limit plate 27 can limit the frame parts to prevent the frame parts from deviating. Then the frame parts will fall on the placement block 4, and the stop rod 32 can block the frame parts, and the stop rod 32 can guide the frame parts. The two ends of the frame parts are inclined surfaces, and the inclined surfaces on two adjacent frame parts contact each other to form an L-shaped frame, so the four frame parts can form a complete frame, and the blocking rod 32 guides the frame parts to avoid the change of the direction of the inclined surfaces on the frame parts. The bottom of the limiting plate 27 is flush with the top of the placement block 4, so after the frame parts fall on the placement block 4, the limiting plate 27 can still limit the frame parts, and the conveyor belt 23 continues to run. The driven shaft of the conveyor belt 23 drives the cam 30 to rotate, and the cam The wheel 30 is out of contact with the contact rod 29, and the cam 30 no longer presses the contact rod 29. Under the action of the spring 25, the slide plate 24 moves upward, and the slide plate 24 drives the limit plate 27 to move upward, raising the limit plate 27 so that the limit plate 27 no longer blocks the positioning block 6. At this time, the output shaft of the stepper motor 20 rotates, driving the cross-shaped guide rail 3 to rotate, thereby driving the placement block 4 to rotate, turning away the placement block 4 with the frame parts, and rotating the next placement block 4 to be close to the conveyor belt 23. The cam 30 continues to rotate, and the cam 30 will push the contact rod 29 downward. The contact rod 29 drives the limit plate 27 to move downward. After the cam 30 rotates one circle, the limit plate 27 stops moving downward. The frame parts on the conveyor belt 23 fall onto the placement block 4, and this reciprocating process can automatically load the materials, thereby further improving the work efficiency. By rotating the bidirectional screw rod 28, the two limit plates 27 can be driven to move toward or away from each other, and the distance between the two limit plates 27 can be adjusted according to the length of the frame parts to adapt to frame parts of different lengths.

[0036] The above is a detailed introduction to the present application. Specific examples are used in this article to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present application. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method of the present application and its core idea. At the same time, for general technical personnel in this field, according to the idea of ​​the present application, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.
