Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of welding equipment, in particular to a motorcycle frame welding fixture and a welding method. Background Art
[0002] The motorcycle frame provides structural support for the entire motorcycle. It is like the skeleton of the motorcycle, connecting the engine, wheels, suspension system, seat, fuel tank and other components together so that they can work together. The strength and rigidity of the frame determine the stability and safety of the motorcycle during driving. If the frame is not strong enough, it may be deformed or even broken when driving at high speeds, making sharp turns or encountering bumpy roads, seriously affecting the life safety of the rider.
[0003] In the prior art, there is a method for using a rear fork welding fixture for an off-road motorcycle frame with a publication number of "CN106624533A", which belongs to the field of welding application technology, and the steps are: step one: adjusting the position of the lifting ear positioning support in the welding fixture for the rear fork of the off-road motorcycle frame; step two: positioning the components of the rear fork of the frame corresponding to the supports on the upper end surface of the tooling bottom plate; step three: pushing the quick chuck I to clamp the rear fork shaft positioning pin on its top into the inner hole of the rear fork shaft; step four: pushing the quick chuck II to push the rear wheel fixing plate against the rear fork positioning support, and the rear fork positioning pin passes through the fixing groove on the rear wheel fixing plate and is engaged in the rear fork positioning hole on the rear fork positioning support; step five: adjusting the position of the lifting ear positioning support to engage the shock absorber seat lifting ear with the shock absorber seat positioning spacer; step six: after the rear fork of the frame is fixed, welding is performed. The technical solution of the present invention enables the rear fork of the frame to be accurately positioned during the welding process, ensures the accuracy of the size of the rear fork of the frame after welding, and improves the welding efficiency.
[0004] However, the existing technology still has major deficiencies, such as:
[0005] In the prior art, there are many obvious drawbacks when performing welding operations on motorcycle frames, especially in the welding process between the head tube and the frame body. First, operators often need to operate multiple clamps to clamp and fix the frame body. This process is not only cumbersome and complicated, but also greatly increases the labor intensity of the processing personnel. Secondly, the fixing method of the head tube is extremely limited, and it cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the angle and height of the head tube of different specifications. As a result, in the actual welding process, it is impossible to adapt well to various specifications of head tubes, which seriously affects the welding accuracy of the frame and the head tube.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0064] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0065] See also Figure 1-16 , the present invention provides a technical solution:
[0066] Embodiment 1:
[0067] The motorcycle frame welding fixture in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, it mainly includes a stable bracket 1, on which a crossbeam 2 is rotatably arranged through rotating parts such as bearings, so that the crossbeam 2 can be rotated and adjusted on the bracket 1. Three key clamping components are fixedly arranged on the crossbeam 2: a first clamping component 4, a second clamping component 5 and a third clamping component 6, which are respectively used to clamp different parts of the frame.
[0068] like Fig.13As shown, the first clamping assembly 4 specifically includes a first fixed plate 41, which is firmly mounted on the crossbeam 2 by fasteners such as bolts. A first rotating rod 42 is rotatably arranged on the first fixed plate 41, and the rotating rod and the fixed plate are connected by a bearing so that the rotating rod can rotate freely. A first sliding sleeve 43 is slidably arranged on the first rotating rod 42, and a clearance fit or a slide rail structure is adopted between the sliding sleeve and the rotating rod to ensure that the sliding sleeve can slide smoothly on the rotating rod. A first connecting plate 44 is fixedly arranged on the first sliding sleeve 43, and the connecting plate and the sliding sleeve are connected by welding or fasteners. A first supporting shaft 45 is fixedly arranged on the first connecting plate 44, and the supporting shaft is used to insert and fix the head tube of the frame, so as to achieve a stable clamping of the front part of the frame.
[0069] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the second clamping assembly 5 includes a second sliding block 51, and the sliding plate 77 is slidably arranged on the cross beam 2 through a linear guide 73 or a sliding member such as a slider, and can move linearly along the cross beam 2. The second sliding block 51 is fixedly provided with a support frame 3, and the support frame 3 is connected to the sliding plate 77 by welding or fasteners. The support frame 3 is provided with a symmetrically arranged second clamping block 52 through a synchronous clamping assembly 7, which is used to clamp the middle part of the frame.
[0070] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the third clamping assembly 6 includes a third sliding block 61, and the sliding plate 77 is also slidably arranged on the crossbeam 2 through a linear guide 73 or a sliding member such as a slider. The third sliding block 61 is provided with a support frame 3 for fixing the rear flat fork of the frame through a lifting assembly 8, and the connection between the support frame 3 and the sliding plate 77 is flexible and can adapt to frames of different heights. The support frame 3 on the third sliding block 61 is also provided with a symmetrical third clamping block 62 through a synchronous clamping assembly 7, and a third support shaft 63 is fixedly arranged on the third clamping block 62 to further stabilize the rear part of the frame.
[0071] like Fig.11 and 12 As shown, the synchronous clamping assembly 7 mainly includes a synchronous shaft 71 rotatably arranged in the support frame 3. This design enables the synchronous shaft 71 to rotate freely in the support frame 3 to provide power for the subsequent clamping action. A synchronous gear 72 is also rotatably arranged on the synchronous shaft 71, and the synchronous gear 72 cooperates with the synchronous rack 75 described later to achieve synchronous movement of the clamping block.
[0072] Furthermore, symmetrically arranged guide rails 73 are provided on the side walls of the support frame 3, and this design ensures the stability and accuracy of the clamping action. A plurality of synchronous sliders 74 are slidably provided on the guide rails 73, and these synchronous sliders 74 can slide freely on the guide rails 73 to provide stable support and guidance for the clamping block.
[0073] A synchronous rack 75 is also fixedly arranged on the synchronous slider 74, and the synchronous rack 75 meshes with the aforementioned synchronous gear 72. When the synchronous gear 72 rotates, it drives the synchronous rack 75 to slide on the guide rail 73, thereby realizing the reverse synchronous movement of the clamping block (such as Fig.16 As shown, the direction of movement of the components is already shown in the figure). It is worth noting that the synchronous rack 75 on the guide rail 73 is arranged symmetrically around the synchronous rotating shaft 71, and this design ensures the balance and stability of the clamping action.
[0074] In addition, a support slot 76 is provided on the support frame 3, and this design provides a sliding space for the sliding plate 77. The sliding plates 77 are fixedly provided on the synchronous rack 75, and these sliding plates 77 penetrate and slide in the support slot 76. When the synchronous rack 75 slides on the guide rail 73, the sliding plate 77 will also slide in the support slot 76 accordingly, thereby driving the clamping block to move.
[0075] Finally, the second clamping block 52 and the third clamping block 62 are fixedly connected to the corresponding sliding plates 77, respectively. When the sliding plate 77 slides in the supporting slide groove 76, it will drive the second clamping block 52 and the third clamping block 62 to move synchronously, thereby clamping and fixing the motorcycle frame. This design not only improves the stability and accuracy of clamping, but also greatly improves the efficiency and flexibility of the welding fixture. When the synchronous shaft 71 rotates, it will drive the synchronous gear 72 to rotate. Since the synchronous rack 75 is engaged with the synchronous gear 72, the synchronous rack 75 will slide on the guide rail 73 in the opposite direction, thereby driving the second clamping block 52 and the third clamping block 62 to move synchronously, thereby achieving the centering clamping of the frame (such as Fig.15 and 16 As shown, the direction of movement of the components is indicated in the figure).
[0076] like Fig.14 As shown, the lifting assembly 8 is used to adjust the height of the third clamping assembly 6 to adapt to frames of different heights. It specifically includes a third mounting block 81 fixedly set on the third sliding block 61, a telescopic cylinder 82 is fixedly set on the third mounting block 81, a third fixed block 83 is fixedly set on the movable end of the telescopic cylinder 82, and the third fixed block 83 is fixedly connected to the support frame 3 on the third sliding block 61. When the telescopic cylinder 82 is extended and retracted, it will drive the third fixed block 83 and the support frame 3 connected thereto to rise and fall, thereby achieving support and clamping of the tail of the frame of different heights. In order to ensure the stability of the lifting process, a plurality of guide holes 84 are opened on the third mounting block 81, and a guide rod 85 is slidably set in the guide hole 84, and one end of the guide rod 85 is fixedly connected to the third fixed block 83 to play a guiding and stabilizing role.
[0077] like Fig.10 and15 As shown, the synchronization component 9 is used to realize the synchronous movement of the second clamping component 5 and the third clamping component 6. It specifically includes a second rotating shaft 91 rotatably set on the second sliding block 51, and a synchronous spline shaft 92 is slidably set in the second rotating shaft 91, and the synchronous spline shaft 92 is rotatably set on the third sliding block 61. A driving bevel gear 93 is fixedly sleeved on the second rotating shaft 91 and the synchronous spline shaft 92, and a driven bevel gear 94 is fixedly sleeved on the synchronous rotating shaft 71. The driving bevel gear 93 and the driven bevel gear 94 are meshed and transmitted. When the synchronous spline shaft 92 rotates, it will drive the second rotating shaft 91 to rotate synchronously through the spline, and then drive the two driving bevel gears 93 to rotate. The driving bevel gear 93 is then meshed with the driven bevel gear 94 to drive the synchronous rotating shaft 71 to rotate, and finally realize the rotation of the synchronous gear 72 and the sliding of the synchronous rack 75, so that the second clamping block 52 and the third clamping block 62 move synchronously, and complete the centering clamping of the frame;
[0078] At the same time, a through slot 98 for the axis plate 97 to slide is provided on the cross beam 2, which not only ensures the stability of the axis plate 97, but also allows it to have a certain sliding space to meet different welding requirements.
[0079] Through the above arrangement, even if the distances between the second clamping assembly 5 and the third clamping assembly 6 are different, the synchronous clamping assembly 7 on the second clamping assembly 5 and the third clamping assembly 6 can be opened and closed synchronously to achieve stable clamping of the frame;
[0080] In particular, if Fig.12 As shown, the synchronous rotating shaft 71 installed in the third clamping assembly 6 is composed of a third rotating shaft 95 and a third spline shaft 96. The third spline shaft 96 can not only slide in the third rotating shaft 95, but also drive the third rotating shaft 95 to rotate synchronously. This design ensures that even if the telescopic cylinder 82 is extended and retracted to change the height of the support frame 3 on the third sliding block 61, the synchronous rotating shaft 71 can also drive the synchronous gear 72 to rotate normally, thereby achieving support and clamping of the rear of the frame at different heights.
[0081] Embodiment 2:
[0082] This embodiment is further optimized based on the first embodiment.
[0083] like Fig.13 As shown, an arc groove 411 is formed on the first fixing plate 41 around the rotation center of the first rotating rod 42. A first locking bolt 46 is provided on the first rotating rod 42, and the first locking bolt 46 is slidably disposed in the arc groove 411. With this design, when the angle of the first rotating rod 42 needs to be adjusted, the first locking bolt 46 can be loosened, and after sliding to a desired position in the arc groove 411, the first locking bolt 46 can be tightened, thereby achieving the first rotating rod 42 being fixed on the first fixing plate 41 at different angles.
[0084] The first sliding sleeve 43 is slidably disposed on the first rotating rod 42. A first pad 47 is disposed between the first sliding sleeve 43 and the first rotating rod 42. A threaded boss is fixedly disposed on the first sliding sleeve 43, and a first screw 48 is rotatably disposed in the threaded boss. When the position of the first sliding sleeve 43 on the first rotating rod 42 needs to be fixed, the first screw 48 can be tightened to squeeze the first pad 47 and the first rotating rod 42, thereby achieving the fixing of the first sliding sleeve 43 on the first rotating rod 42. In this way, head pipes of different heights can be adapted and fixed.
[0085] A first turntable 49 is also rotatably arranged on the first sleeve 43, and the first connecting plates 44 are arranged in a circumferential array on the first turntable 49. Such a design enables the first connecting plates 44 to rotate around the first turntable 49, and multiple first connecting rods can increase the number of working positions of the head pipe, making the welding efficiency higher.
[0086] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, a positioning rack 10 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the crossbeam 2. A positioning gear 11 is rotatably provided on each of the second sliding block 51 and the third sliding block 61, and both positioning gears 11 are meshed with the positioning rack 10. A shaft seat 12 is fixedly provided on the bracket 1, and the crossbeam 2 is rotatably provided on the bracket 1 through the shaft seat 12. A worm gear 13 is fixedly provided at one end of the crossbeam 2, and a worm 131 meshed with the worm gear 13 is fixedly provided on the bracket 1. A stepper motor 14 is connected to the worm 131, the positioning gear 11, and one end of the synchronous spline shaft 92.
[0087] Specifically, the stepper motor 14 driving the worm 131 is fixedly mounted on the bracket 1; the stepper motor 14 driving the positioning gear 11 is fixedly mounted on one end of the second sliding block 51 and the third sliding block 61 respectively; and the stepper motor 14 driving the synchronous spline shaft 92 is fixedly mounted on one end of the shaft plate 97. With such a design, the rotation of the beam 2, the positions of the second sliding block 51 and the third sliding block 61 on the beam 2, and the rotation of the synchronous spline shaft 92 can be controlled respectively, thereby achieving more precise adjustment.
[0088] like Figure 7As shown, the third clamping block 62 includes a fixed clamping plate 621 and a movable clamping plate 624. A plurality of guide sleeves 622 are fixedly arranged on the fixed clamping plate 621, and guide posts 623 are slidably arranged in these guide sleeves 622. The movable clamping plate 624 is fixedly arranged at one end of the guide post 623. An adjusting bolt 626 is also rotatably arranged on the fixed clamping plate 621, and a threaded sleeve 625 is fixedly arranged on the movable clamping plate 624. The adjusting bolt 626 cooperates with the threaded sleeve 625, and the movable clamping plate 624 can be pushed to move along the guide post 623 by rotating the adjusting bolt 626, thereby realizing fine adjustment of the position of the movable clamping plate 624. The third support shaft 63 is fixedly arranged at one end of the movable clamping plate 624.
[0089] like Fig.11 As shown, a second clamping frame 53 is rotatably provided on the second clamping block 52, and an arc-shaped groove is provided on the second clamping frame 53. Such a design enables the second clamping frame 53 to adapt to objects of different shapes and provide more stable support.
[0090] like Figure 1 As shown, a control panel 15 is fixedly provided on the bracket 1 for controlling the operation of each stepper motor 14. A universal wheel 16 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the bracket 1 to facilitate the movement of the entire device. A travel switch 17 is also fixedly provided on the movable clamping plate 624 for detecting the moving position of the movable clamping plate 624 and controlling the stop of the stepper motor 14.
[0091] Working principle: During the use of the present invention, when performing motorcycle frame welding operations, first adjust the position of the first rotating rod 42 on the first fixing plate 41 according to the angle of the head tube, and achieve angle fixation of the first rotating rod 42 by sliding and tightening the first locking bolt 46 in the arc groove 411. Then adjust the position of the first sliding sleeve 43 on the first rotating rod 42 according to the height of the head tube, tighten the first screw 48, so that the first screw 48 squeezes the first pad 47 and the first rotating rod 42, and achieves the fixation of the first sliding sleeve 43, thereby adapting to head tubes of different heights. A plurality of head tubes are sleeved on the first connecting plate 44 on the first rotating disk 49.
[0092] Then, according to the length of the vehicle frame, the position of the second sliding block 51 and the third sliding block 61 on the cross beam 2 is adjusted by using the stepping motor 14 driving the positioning gear 11. The positioning gears 11 on the second sliding block 51 and the third sliding block 61 are meshed with the positioning rack 10 at the bottom of the cross beam 2, and the stepping motor 14 drives the positioning gear 11 to rotate, so that the second sliding block 51 and the third sliding block 61 slide on the cross beam 2, so that the second sliding block 51 corresponds to the bottom position of the vehicle frame, and the third sliding block 61 corresponds to the tail of the vehicle frame.
[0093] The frame is placed on the second clamping assembly 5 and the third clamping assembly 6. The second clamping frame 53 on the second clamping block 52 supports the bottom of the frame, and the third support shaft 63 on the third clamping block 62 supports the tail position of the frame. The stepper motor 14 on the start shaft plate 97 rotates the synchronous spline shaft 92, and drives the second rotating shaft 91 to rotate synchronously through the spline. The synchronous spline shaft 92 and the second rotating shaft 91 drive the two driving bevel gears 93 to rotate, and the driving bevel gears 93 mesh with the driven bevel gear 94 to drive the synchronous rotating shaft 71 to rotate. The synchronous gear 72 on the synchronous rotating shaft 71 rotates and meshes with the synchronous rack 75, so that the synchronous rack 75 slides on the guide rail 73 in the opposite direction. The sliding plate 77 on the synchronous rack 75 drives the second clamping block 52 and the third clamping block 62 to move synchronously to achieve the centering clamping of the frame. When both travel switches 17 contact the frame, the stepper motor 14 stops rotating.
[0094] Since the synchronous rotating shaft 71 installed in the third clamping assembly 6 is composed of the third rotating shaft 95 and the third spline shaft 96, the third spline can not only slide in the third rotating shaft 95, but also drive the third rotating shaft 95 to slide synchronously. Therefore, even if the telescopic cylinder 82 is extended and retracted, and the height of the support frame 3 on the third sliding block 61 changes, the synchronous rotating shaft 71 on the third sliding block 61 can also drive the synchronous gear 72 to rotate, thereby achieving support and clamping of the rear of the frame at different heights. (e.g. Fig.15 and 16 As shown, the direction of movement of the components is indicated in the figure).
[0095] After clamping, the head tube is aligned with the frame and the two are welded. The operator can choose manual welding or welding robot welding according to the actual situation. The specific welding method is not limited in this embodiment. After welding, the welded frame is removed, the first rotating disk 49 is rotated to rotate the head tube of the next station to the working position, and the frame installation steps are repeated to weld the next frame.
[0096] A welding method:
[0097] S1: The position of the first rotating rod 42 on the first fixing plate 41 is adjusted according to the angle of the head tube, and the position of the first sliding sleeve 43 on the first rotating rod 42 is adjusted according to the height of the head tube, and the head tubes are fixed by the first locking bolt 46 and the first screw 48, and the head tubes are sleeved on the first connecting plate 44 on the first rotating disk 49;
[0098] S2: adjusting the positions of the second slide plate and the third slide plate by using the stepping motor 14 according to the length of the frame, so that the second slide plate corresponds to the bottom position of the frame, and the third slide plate corresponds to the tail of the frame;
[0099] S3: Place the vehicle frame on the second clamping assembly 5 and the third clamping assembly 6, the second clamping frame 53 supports the bottom of the vehicle frame, the third support shaft 63 supports the tail position of the vehicle frame, start the stepper motor 14 on the shaft plate 97, and simultaneously center and clamp the vehicle frame body through the synchronization assembly 9 and the synchronization clamping assembly 7. When both travel switches 17 contact the vehicle frame, the stepper motor 14 stops rotating;
[0100] S4: After clamping, align the head tube with the frame and weld them together (the operator can choose manual welding or welding robot welding according to the actual situation);
[0101] S5: After welding is completed, the welded frame is removed, the first rotating disk 49 is rotated to rotate the head pipe of the next station to the working position, and the frame installation steps are repeated to weld the next frame.
