[0032] By setting up the loading component 3, the circulating conveying component 4 and the unloading component 5, the automatic loading, conveying and unloading of the plate welding process are realized. The circulating conveying component 4 is adopted. Since it circulates through multiple sliding conveying plates 44 and moves one sliding conveying plate 44 at a time, intermittent feeding of the welding machine 2 is realized, thereby realizing automatic welding, greatly reducing manual operation, reducing labor costs, and improving production efficiency.

[0036] The third slide rail 43 passes through the welding machine 2, and the first slide rail 41 and the second slide rail 42 are respectively located on both sides of the welding machine 2. The sliding conveyor plate 44 on the first slide rail 41 is pushed out and enters the welding machine 2.

[0037] In actual use, positioning pins may be installed on the sliding conveying plate 44 to locate the position of the workpiece. The position and number of the positioning pins may vary depending on the workpiece.

The second pusher 522 in the pressing mechanism 52 drives the pressing plate 523 to press the workpiece back into place to avoid material jamming. Several second manipulators 51 in the unloading assembly 5 move the welded workpiece from the circulating conveying assembly 4. The whole process realizes the automated production of plate welding and improves production efficiency and welding quality.
