At the same time, the whole equipment is made more stable. When welding parts, it can ensure that the parts will not shake due to external force, thereby improving the stability of the whole welding.

[0022] Working principle: when the welding robot body 3 needs to weld the parts on the welding platform 1, after placing the parts or two groups of pipes on the clamping plate 62, manually rotate the bidirectional screw rod 61, and the bidirectional screw rod 61 drives the clamping plate 62 to move toward the center of the welding platform 1 to achieve the function of clamping the two groups of parts, ensuring that the parts are more stable during welding. When welding two groups of pipes, after placing the pipes on the arc surface of the clamping plate 62, the elastic force of the spring three 610, the cooperation of the bracket two 69 and the slider 68 make the movable plate 64 move downward. After the movable plate 64 moves downward, it drives the roller 66 to move downward. After clamping one end of the pipe between the clamping plates 62, the bidirectional screw rod 61 is rotated. The screw rod 61 drives the clamping plate 62 to move the pipe onto the welding platform 1, so that the two groups of pipes are spliced, and after the welding robot body 3 is cooperated to weld one of the two groups of pipes, the small motor 65 is started, and the two groups of pipes are driven to rotate simultaneously through the roller 66, and the two groups of pipes are welded in all directions in cooperation with the welding robot body 3, and the motor in the driving bin 41 is started, and the motor drives the gear 42 to rotate, and the tooth bud 43 drives the welding robot body 3 to move around the welding platform 1. During the movement, the output shaft of the motor will drive the cleaning rod 44 to rotate, and the cleaning brush on the cleaning rod 44 will clean the tooth spacing in the tooth bud 43 to prevent the welding machine from When the robot body 3 moves, a jamming phenomenon may occur. At the same time, when the cleaning rod 44 rotates, the push rod 45 will squeeze the trapezoidal slope below the connecting rod 49, so that the connecting rod 49 moves upward. At the same time, when the connecting rod 49 moves upward, it will compress the spring 410. When the connecting rod 49 is not in contact with the push rod 45, the elastic force of the spring 410 is restored to continuously blow air into the annular groove 2 to prevent debris from accumulating and hindering the movement of the welding robot body 3. The connecting rod 49 drives the hydraulic rod 48 to move upward, generating air pressure in the hydraulic chamber 46. The air pressure emerges through the air outlet rod 47 to blow the debris accumulated in the annular groove 2 to prevent debris from accumulating and affecting the welding. The robot body 3 gets stuck when moving. At the same time, when the welding robot body 3 moves in the annular groove 2, if it comes into contact with other objects or people, it will preferentially come into contact with the arc baffle 52. After any group of arc baffles 52 is squeezed by an object, they will converge toward the center of the welding robot body 3. The arc baffle 52 cooperates with the bracket 1 55 to drive the ring body 54 to move upward, and at the same time compresses the spring 2 53. Multiple groups of arc baffles 52 are connected through the ring body 54 to drive four groups of arc baffles 52 to shrink toward the center of the welding robot body 3. At the same time, the extension plate 57 is driven to move toward the direction of the emergency stop button 56. Press the emergency stop button 56 to stop the drive compartment 41.
