[0020] 3. Through the coordination of multiple connecting strips, convex plates and extrusion springs in the welding assembly, the clamping plate first presses the reinforcing rib and the door inner panel, and then the welding head contacts the corresponding reinforcing rib and the door inner panel. The clamping plate locally presses up and down on both sides of the welding point of the reinforcing rib and the door inner panel to ensure the close contact between the welding point of the reinforcing rib and the door inner panel. After that, the linkage block continues to move to make the extrusion spring further elastically press the welding head to ensure the clamping force of the welding head. As the welding position moves, the clamping plate can press up and down on the previous spot welding position to maintain pressure, which greatly improves the welding effect.

Semi-circular protrusions 155 are arranged in the middle of the outer end faces of the fixed frame 151. Positioning groups are evenly arranged on the conveyor belt of the conveyor 11. During operation, through the plurality of rollers 154 provided, when the inner door panel 3 enters the fixed frame 151, it can play a role in guiding and reducing friction, facilitating entry and placement. Subsequently, the airbag 153 is activated, and the airbag 153 cooperates with the lower clamping plate 152 to flexibly clamp the multiple edge positions of the inner door panel 3 inside the fixed frame 151, thereby stably fixing the inner door panel 3. The positioning group is a plurality of positioning blocks 156 corresponding to the positions of the semi-circular protrusions 155 of the fixed frame 151. Semi-circular grooves are provided on the positioning blocks 156 to cooperate with the semi-circular protrusions 155 of the fixed frame 151. By the cooperation of the semi-circular grooves on the plurality of positioning blocks 156 and the semi-circular protrusions 155 of the fixed frame 151, the fixed frame 151 can be limited on the conveyor 11, ensuring stability during movement.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 8In this embodiment, the limiting assembly 24 includes an L-shaped frame 241, the bottom of the vertical section of the L-shaped frame 241 is installed on the sliding pillar 23, and the vertical section of the L-shaped frame 241 is symmetrically installed with a positioning plate 242 on the left and right sides of the end surface near the clamping group, and the lower end surface of the horizontal section of the L-shaped frame 241 is installed with an electric telescopic rod 243, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 243 is installed with a cross plate 244, and the lower end surface of the cross plate 244 is near the left and right sides. Connecting rods 245 are installed at the positions of the lower end surface of the cross plate 244 near the left and right sides, and a pressing plate 246 is installed at the lower ends of the two connecting rods 245. A trapezoidal groove is opened at the lower end of the pressing plate 246 between the two connecting rods 245, and a stabilizing rib 247 is arranged between the connecting rod 245 and the pressing plate 246; the stabilizing rib 247 improves the stability of the connection between the connecting rod 245 and the pressing plate 246.

A positioning groove is provided at the upper end surface of the positioning plate 242 corresponding to the pressure plate 246, and the front lower end surfaces of the two positioning plates 242 are commonly connected with a support rod 249; when working, when the sliding support 23 drives the L-shaped frame 241 to move to the specified position, the front of the positioning plate 242 moves to the position where welding is required, and the position for placing the reinforcing rib 4 is limited by the front upper part of the positioning plate 242 and the stopper 248. The front lower part of the positioning plate 242 and the support rod 24 9 provides stable support for the door inner panel 3 to prevent the downward pressure of the pressure plate 246 from causing deformation of the door inner panel 3, and then puts in the reinforcing rib 4, and then the upper electric telescopic rod 243 is extended outward, driving the cross plate 244, the connecting rod 245 and the pressure plate 246 to move downward, and the pressure plate 246 moves downward into the positioning groove to clamp and limit the position of the positioning plate 242. At the same time, the lower end of the pressure plate 246 is pressed tightly on the upper part of the reinforcing rib 4. The trapezoidal groove cooperates with the structure of the reinforcing rib 4, and can also limit the front and rear directions of the reinforcing rib 4 to a certain extent, thereby improving the stability of the fixing of the reinforcing rib 4.

[0036] See also Figure 1 , Fig. 9, in this embodiment, the spot welding assembly 25 includes a telescopic cylinder 251. The vertical section of the L-shaped frame 241 is embedded and installed with a telescopic cylinder 251 at the middle position between the two positioning plates 242. Support telescopic rods 252 are embedded and installed on the left and right sides of the telescopic cylinder 251 to improve the stability of movement. A displacement box 253 is jointly installed on the telescopic ends of the telescopic cylinder 251 and the support telescopic rods 252. An installation groove is formed in the middle of the front end of the displacement box 253, and a transverse screw rod 254 is rotatably installed in the installation groove. One end of the transverse screw rod 254 extends outside the displacement box 253. An intermittent rotation motor 255 is installed on the displacement box 253 through a motor base. The output shaft of the intermittent rotation motor 255 is connected to the transverse screw rod 254 extending outside the displacement box 253. An installation frame 256 is threadedly connected to the transverse screw rod 254. The installation frame 256 is a U-shaped structure with an opening facing forward; a limiting groove 257 is vertically formed on the front end face of the vertical section of the installation frame 256. Two sliding long blocks 258 are symmetrically and slidably arranged up and down in the limiting groove 257. A welding head 2520 is installed on the front side of the opposite faces of the two sliding long blocks 258. Linkage grooves 259 are formed at the positions on the left and right sides of the installation frame 256 where the limiting groove 257 is located. Bidirectional threaded rods 2510 are rotatably installed in the linkage grooves 259. The upper ends of the bidirectional threaded rods 2510 all extend outside the installation frame 256. A rotation motor 2511 is installed on the installation frame 256 through a motor base. The upper end of one of the bidirectional threaded rods 2510 is connected to the output shaft of the rotation motor 2511. The outer walls of the two bidirectional threaded rods 2510 extending outside the installation frame 256 are connected through a pulley group 2512. Linkage blocks 2513 are symmetrically and threadedly connected to the outer walls of the bidirectional threaded rods 2510 up and down. A plurality of connecting strips 2514 are evenly arranged from front to back on the opposite faces of the adjacent linkage blocks 2513 on the left and right. Vertical through holes 2519 are formed at the corresponding positions of the side end faces of the sliding long blocks 258. The middle parts of the connecting strips 2514 slide up and down in the vertical through holes 2519.The upper and lower opposite surfaces of the linkage block 2513 are installed with spring telescopic rods 2515 at the positions corresponding to the welding head 2520, and the telescopic ends of the spring telescopic rods 2515 are installed with clamping plates 2516. The length of the welding head 2520 is smaller than the length of the spring telescopic rods 2515. The two adjacent linkage blocks 2513 on the left and right are jointly installed with a plurality of convex plates 2517 arranged from front to back, and the convex positions of the convex plates 2517 are installed with extrusion springs 2518, and the other end of the extrusion springs 2518 is installed on the sliding long block 258. When working, after the reinforcing rib 4 is fixed, it is extended outward through the telescopic cylinder 251, driving the supporting telescopic rods 252 on both sides to extend outward synchronously, so that the displacement box 253 When the welding head 2520 is moved to the welding position, the rotating motor 2511 is started to drive the two bidirectional threaded rods 2510 to rotate synchronously through the pulley group 2512, so that the upper and lower corresponding linkage blocks 2513 move toward each other. When the multiple convex plates 2517 and the extrusion springs 2518 cooperate, the linkage blocks 2513 drive the corresponding sliding long blocks 258 to move synchronously while moving, thereby driving the welding head 2520 and the clamping plate 2516 to approach the position of the door inner panel 3. During the movement, the clamping plate 2516 first contacts the reinforcing rib 4 and the door inner panel 3, and then continues to move to squeeze the spring telescopic rod 2515, and then the welding head 2520 also contacts the corresponding reinforcing rib 4 The linkage block 2513 continues to drive the clamping plate 2516 to move downward to further squeeze the spring telescopic rod 2515. At this time, the welding head 2520 cannot move further, and the connecting strip 2514 slides in the vertical through hole 2519. At the same time, the convex plate 2517 presses the squeezing spring 2518. The welding head 2520 is further elastically compressed by the force of the squeezing spring 2518 to ensure the compression force of the welding head 2520. The clamping plate 2516 is used to press the two sides of the welding point of the reinforcing rib 4 and the inner door panel 3 up and down to ensure that the reinforcing rib 4 and the inner door panel 3 are fully compressed and contacted, the gap is reduced, and the welding stability is improved. When the welding of this welding point is completed, The clamping plate 2516 and the welding head 2520 return to their original positions, and the intermittent rotating motor 255 is started to drive the transverse screw 254 to rotate forward and drive the mounting frame 256 to move to the left to the next position where welding is required, and the above operations are repeated to perform spot welding in sequence. When spot welding is performed on the next position, the clamping plate 2516 can continuously press up and down to maintain the pressure on the previous spot welding position, and this is repeated. When all the spot welding on the rear side of the reinforcement rib 4 is completed, the telescopic cylinder 251 extends outward for a distance, so that the clamping plate 2516 and the welding head 2520 move to the front side of the reinforcement rib 4, and the intermittent rotating motor 255 drives the transverse screw 254 to reverse and perform spot welding on the front side of the reinforcement rib 4 to the right in sequence.

[0037] During specific operation, the inner door panel 3 is smoothly guided into the fixed frame 151 by multiple rollers 154. Subsequently, the airbag 153 is activated. The airbag 153 cooperates with the lower clamping plate 152 to flexibly clamp multiple edge positions of the inner door panel 3 within the fixed frame 151, ensuring both the stability of clamping and not damaging the inner door panel 3. Then, the conveyor 11 moves the edge clamping assembly 15 and the inner door panel 3 to the left intermittently. During the movement, they pass through the cleaning assembly 14. When the inner door panel 3 moves through the inside of the U-shaped plate 141, the upper and lower brushes clean the upper and lower sides of the welding position of the inner door panel 3. The cleaned particulate debris is sucked into the storage box 144 through the existing suction pump from the adsorption holes 143 for collection, thereby improving the cleaning effect. By cleaning the surface of the welding position of the inner door panel 3, it can prevent particulate debris from affecting the full fit between the inner door panel 3 and the reinforcing rib 4, resulting in insufficient welding. When the conveyor 11 drives the edge clamping assembly 15 and the inner door panel 3 to move to the positioning and welding mechanism 2, the conveyor 11 stops intermittently. The limiting component 24 is moved to the designated position by the cooperation of the sliding track 22 and the sliding support column 23. At this time, the front part of the positioning plate 242 moves to the welding position. The position for placing the reinforcing rib 4 is limited by the cooperation of the positioning plate 242 and the stop block 248. Subsequently, the reinforcing rib 4 is placed. Then, the upper electric telescopic rod 243 extends outward, driving the cross plate 244, the connecting rod 245, and the pressing plate 246 to move downward. The pressing plate 246 moves downward into the positioning groove to clamp and limit the position of the positioning plate 242. At the same time, the lower end of the pressing plate 246 presses against the upper part of the reinforcing rib 4. The structure of the trapezoidal groove cooperates with the reinforcing rib 4, and can also limit the front and rear directions of the reinforcing rib 4 to a certain extent, improving the stability of the fixing of the reinforcing rib 4.After the reinforcing rib 4 is fixed, the telescopic cylinder 251 is extended outward, driving the supporting telescopic rods 252 on both sides to extend outward synchronously, so that the displacement box 253 is close to the welding position. After moving to the welding position, the rotating motor 2511 is started to drive the two bidirectional threaded rods 2510 to rotate synchronously through the pulley group 2512, so that the upper and lower corresponding linkage blocks 2513 move toward each other. When the multiple convex plates 2517 and the extrusion springs 2518 cooperate, the linkage blocks 2513 move and drive the corresponding sliding long blocks 258 to move synchronously, thereby The welding head 2520 and the clamping plate 2516 are driven to approach the position of the door inner panel 3. During the movement, the clamping plate 2516 first contacts the reinforcing rib 4 and the door inner panel 3, and then continues to move to squeeze the spring telescopic rod 2515. After that, the welding head 2520 also conflicts with the corresponding reinforcing rib 4 and the door inner panel 3. The linkage block 2513 continues to drive the clamping plate 2516 to move downward to further squeeze the spring telescopic rod 2515. At this time, the welding head 2520 cannot move further, and the connecting strip 2514 slides in the vertical through hole 2519. At the same time, the convex plate 2517 compresses the extrusion spring 2518, and further elastically compresses the welding head 2520 through the force of the extrusion spring 2518 to ensure the clamping force of the welding head 2520, and compresses the two sides of the welding point of the reinforcing rib 4 and the door inner panel 3 up and down through the clamping plate 2516 to ensure that the reinforcing rib 4 and the door inner panel 3 are fully compressed and contacted, the gap is reduced, and the welding stability is improved; when the welding of this welding point is completed, the clamping plate 2516 and the welding head 2520 return to the original position, and the intermittent rotating motor 255 is started to drive the transverse screw 254 to rotate forward to drive The mounting frame 256 moves to the left to the next position to be welded, and repeats the above operation to perform spot welding in sequence. When spot welding is performed on the next position, the clamping plate 2516 can continuously press and hold the previous spot welding position up and down, and repeat this process. When all spot welding is completed on the rear side of the reinforcing rib 4, the telescopic cylinder 251 extends outward for a distance, so that the clamping plate 2516 and the welding head 2520 move to the front side of the reinforcing rib 4, and the intermittent rotating motor 255 drives the transverse screw 254 to reverse and perform spot welding on the front side of the reinforcing rib 4 in sequence to the right. ;
