Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of welding, and in particular relates to a rotary welding positioning fixture. Background Art
[0002] At present, robots are an important member of the field of modern industrial automation and are increasingly widely used. Welding robots can achieve micron-level positioning accuracy through precise control systems and advanced sensing technology to ensure that every welding can meet extremely high quality standards. This not only reduces welding defects such as pores and cracks, but also improves the overall strength and aesthetics of the product. Compared with manual welding, welding robots can work continuously and uninterruptedly without being affected by factors such as fatigue and emotional fluctuations. By programming to optimize welding paths and parameters, robots can complete complex welding tasks in the shortest time and shorten production cycles. In the face of safety hazards such as high temperature, spatter, smoke and harmful gas emissions during welding, the use of welding robots releases operators from dangerous environments and reduces the risk of work-related accidents. The consistency and high quality of robot welding reduces scrap and rework rates, further saving costs.
[0003] The disadvantage of welding robots is that the height, angle and position of the welding workpieces can be adjusted freely during welding, which makes it difficult to ensure the best welding position, and easily leads to quality problems such as uneven welding and welding deformation. Especially for some large workpieces, the workpieces are large and not easy to flip, and it is difficult to adjust the angle, especially for some large special-shaped workpieces such as spherical or arc-shaped workpieces. Since the arc surface usually has a certain curvature and curvature, the welding space is relatively small, and it is more difficult to weld inside the workpiece. Considering the possible impact on the material during welding, such as deformation and discoloration, and to ensure the quality of the weld and avoid the appearance of ripples, intermittent, pores, cracks and other undesirable phenomena in the weld caused by the continuous rotation of the welding head, it is very important to maintain a stable welding speed. Summary of the invention

[0026] like Figure 1-2As shown, when it is necessary to weld an arc-shaped plate or a spherical workpiece, the welding workpiece can be placed on the radial rotating device 102 on the frame body 1011, and the fixed position of the bottom plate 19 on the top plate 901 and the bottom plate 902 is determined according to the size of the welding workpiece. If the size of the workpiece is not suitable, the bottom plate 19 can be fixed on the bottom plate 902 and the top plate 901 in the U-shaped hole by bolts to adapt to the appropriate size of the welding workpiece.

Since a servo motor is used, it can accurately control the speed and position of the motor, which can ensure that the welding accuracy reaches the micron level, accurately ensure the best welding angle and height of the welding gun, fully meet the best welding angle and height, and achieve consistency and stability of welding quality.
[0027] Embodiment 2: Figure 3 As shown, when it is necessary to weld a workpiece that is not an arc plate or a sphere, the workpiece can be placed on the radial rotating device 102, and the welding workpiece can be fixed and clamped by bolts, and the robot welding gun can weld the workpiece. When it is necessary to adjust the up and down, front and back positions of the workpiece, the servo motor is operated to operate the axial rotating device 4 to adjust the welding workpiece 360° up and down, front and back. When it is necessary to adjust the left and right, front and back positions of the workpiece, the servo motor is operated to operate the radial rotating device 102 to adjust the welding workpiece 360° left and right, front and back, to fully meet the optimal welding angle and position. Without rotating the welding gun, the workpiece is rotated 360° up and down, left and right, front and back. Since the servo motor is used, it can accurately control the speed and position of the motor, accurately ensure the optimal welding angle and height of the welding gun, and thus ensure the welding quality and consistency.
[0028] Embodiment 3: Figure 4 As shown, when the workpiece needs to be welded and there is no need to adjust the left and right position of the workpiece, the workpiece can be fixed to the axial rotating device 4 with bolts to adjust the welding workpiece 360° up and down and front and back to meet the welding position requirements of the workpiece. When the welding gun does not rotate, the position of the workpiece can be adjusted to adapt to the optimal welding angle and position of the welding gun. For some large workpieces that need to be turned over, the workpiece can be turned upward to weld the bottom of the workpiece, thereby saving labor and improving work efficiency.
