Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of welding equipment, and specifically relates to an automatic welding equipment for the fabrication and forming of wheelchairs. Background Art

[0002] A wheelchair is an assistive mobility device used to help people with limited mobility improve their independence and quality of life. A wheelchair mainly consists of a frame, a seat, armrests, pedals, large wheels, small wheels, and additional accessories. The frame of the wheelchair is one of the most important components. The frame of the wheelchair is usually welded by multiple pipe fittings. However, during the welding process of the wheelchair frame, the following problems exist:

[0003] 1. The frame of the wheelchair is welded by multiple independent pipe fittings. In existing equipment, each independent pipe fitting is clamped by a separate clamping mechanism, which requires multiple positioning and clamping operations, and the operation is cumbersome. Since both sides of the connection of the pipe fittings need to be welded, for the convenience of welding, the existing equipment usually clamps the pipe fittings vertically. During the clamping process, it is usually necessary to manually hold the pipe fittings vertically and stably before clamping, which is cumbersome and requires multiple positioning, thus reducing the welding efficiency.

[0004] 2. In existing equipment, the pipe fittings are usually clamped and fixed at a single level by a fixture, and the clamping stability is poor. Therefore, during the welding process, the phenomenon of pipe fitting slippage is likely to occur, reducing the welding quality. In existing equipment, after welding is completed, the finished product needs to be removed, and after re-clamping the new pipe fittings, welding is carried out again. The intermediate blanking and loading take a long time, reducing the welding efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0048] When the angle adjustment mechanism 32 is in use, after the multiple pipe fittings are integrated and stably clamped, the servo motor 3211 is started at this time, and the servo motor 3211 drives the screw rod 3213 to rotate, and synchronously drives the movable block 3216 and the No. 1 mounting plate 3215 thereon to move forward, and at the same time, the No. 1 slider 3214 slides forward along the guide rail 3212, and then synchronously drives the fixed head 3222 and the No. 1 rotating seat 3221 thereon to move forward, and then synchronously drives the rotating arm 3223 and the No. 2 rotating seat 3224 thereon to move forward, and then synchronously drives the No. 1 fixed block 3225 to move forward, and then synchronously drives the flip plate 332 to flip forward around the rotating shaft 373 until the flip plate 332 moves to a perpendicular state with the table top 31, so that the flip plate 332 and the pipe fittings fixed thereon are flipped from a horizontal state to a vertical state, which is convenient for welding the pipe fittings, and as the No. 1 slider 3214 moves forward, it synchronously drives the mounting rod 3241 and the No. 2 mounting plate 3 242 moves forward, and then synchronously drives the No. 1 locking block 3245 and the plug pin 3243 to move forward until the No. 1 locking block 3245 fits with the No. 2 locking block 3248. At this time, the plug pin 3243 is plugged into the interior of the positioning block 3247 to achieve the limit fixation between the No. 1 locking block 3245 and the No. 2 locking block 3248.

[0049] Working principle: During the use of the present invention, first, with the turning plate 332 in a horizontal state, the pipe fittings to be welded are sequentially placed into the third inverted L-shaped positioning slide rail 339, the second horizontal positioning slide rail 338, the first inverted L-shaped positioning slide rail 333, the vertical positioning slide rail 337, the first horizontal positioning slide rail 335, and the second inverted L-shaped positioning slide rail 334. The pipe fittings are placed horizontally, with simple operation, achieving primary positioning and clamping of the pipe fittings. Subsequently, the clamping mechanism 34 is used to integrally clamp and fix multiple pipe fittings, eliminating the need for individual clamping, with high working efficiency. The clamping mechanism 34 realizes secondary positioning and clamping of the pipe fittings, improving the stability of the pipe fitting clamping. After the clamping is completed, the angle adjustment mechanism 32 flips the pipe fittings on the turning plate 332 by 90 degrees to a vertical state, facilitating the welding of the pipe fittings. After the turning plate 332 is flipped by 90 degrees, the locking mechanism 36 connects the turning plate 332 and the tabletop 31 to form a whole, further improving the stability of the turning plate 332 and the pipe fittings clamped thereon. Moreover, the structures of the first workbench 1 and the second workbench 3 are completely the same, and the first workbench 1 and the second workbench 3 work alternately. When the first workbench 1 is welding, the second workbench 3 performs loading and unloading, achieving continuous operation and improving the welding efficiency.
