[0009] As a further solution of the present invention: the external thread of the screw rod is connected to a movable plate, and hinge rods are respectively installed on both sides of the bottom of the movable plate. The middle part of the hinge rod is hinged to the fixed seat through a pin shaft, and a splint is installed at the bottom end of the hinge rod. One side of the top of the splint is hinged with a support arm through a pin shaft, and the top of the support arm is hinged to the bottom of the fixed seat through a pin shaft.

[0011] As a further solution of the present invention: the welding assembly includes an extension block, the extension block is fixed to the inner wall of the deflection assembly, a welding gun is installed on the other side of the extension block, and a welding head is threadedly connected to the bottom end of the welding gun.

[0012] A method for using an automatic rotary welding device for automobile curved pipe fittings, the method comprising the following steps:

[0013] When welding the curved pipe fittings of automobiles, the pipe fittings are placed in the notch at the bottom of the support seat so that the pipe fittings can pass through the clamping plates in the two limit assemblies, and the pipe fittings are moved horizontally so that the welding position of the pipe fittings corresponds to the position of the welding assembly. Secondly, the second motor is controlled to drive the screw rod to rotate. Since the moving plate is threadedly connected to the outside of the screw rod, the moving plate can move up and pull the hinged rods on both sides so that the middle part of the hinged rod rotates around the end of the fixed seat. The bottom end of the hinged rod can push the clamping plate to rotate during the deflection process, so that the two opposite clamping plates are closed and the pipe fittings are clamped. The clamping plates are supported by the support arms to improve the stability of the clamping plates on the pipe fittings.

[0014] After completing the locking work of the pipe fitting, the welding head in the welding assembly is aligned with the welding part of the pipe fitting, and the first motor is started. The output shaft of the first motor drives the two driving gears to rotate, and the driving gear drives the driven gear to rotate through the connecting gear. Since the two driven gears have the same rotation direction and are meshed with the gear ring, the driven gear can drive the gear ring to rotate, and the gear ring drives the slip ring to slide in the slideway. Since the cross-sectional shapes of the slip ring and the slideway are both T-shaped, the slideway can play a role in supporting and limiting the slip ring, ensuring the stability of the rotation of the gear ring and the ear plate. During the rotation of the gear ring, the welding assembly can be driven to revolve around the center of the pipe fitting. At the same time, the welding assembly works, and the welding gun and the welding head cooperate to automatically weld the connection of the pipe fitting. After the welding gun and the welding head rotate around the outer wall of the pipe fitting for one circle, the first motor is started to reverse, so that the welding assembly can return to its position;

[0015] When welding pipes of different specifications, in order to ensure the best welding distance between the welding head and the outer wall of the pipe, the first motor is controlled to work, so that the driven gear in the adjustment component drives the gear ring to rotate, and the gear ring drives the welding component to rotate, so that the welding component is not blocked by the limit component, and the first motor is controlled to stop working, and then the welding head is rotated. Since the welding head is threadedly connected to the end of the welding gun, the welding head can be freely extended and adjusted inside the welding gun, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the distance between the welding head and the outer wall of the pipe;

[0016] When removing the pipe fitting, control the second motor to reverse and drive the screw to rotate. During the rotation of the screw, the moving plate will move downward. The moving plate squeezes the two hinged rods at the bottom to push the two clamps to deflect, that is, the two clamps can open, thereby releasing the locking state of the pipe fitting, and then the pipe fitting can be removed.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. In the present invention, by aligning the welding head with the welding part of the pipe fitting, the output shaft of the first motor drives the two driving gears to rotate, and the driving gear drives the driven gear to rotate through the connecting gear. Since the two driven gears have the same rotation direction and are meshed with the gear ring, the driven gear can drive the gear ring to rotate, and the gear ring drives the slip ring to slide in the slideway. Since the cross-sectional shapes of the slip ring and the slideway are both T-shaped, the slideway can play a role in supporting and limiting the slip ring, thereby ensuring the stability of the rotation of the gear ring and the ear plate. During the rotation of the gear ring, the welding assembly can be driven to revolve around the center of the pipe fitting. At the same time, the welding assembly works, and the welding gun cooperates with the welding head to automatically rotate and weld the connection of the pipe fitting, thereby abandoning the method of using multi-segment welding, preventing defects from occurring at the arc start and end of the weld, improving the welding effect, and when welding the pipe fitting, there is no need to rotate the pipe fitting, preventing the bending part of the pipe fitting from interfering with the rotation stroke, reducing the welding difficulty.

[0019] The two hinged rods on both sides are connected to the movable plate, and the movable plate can be moved upward to pull the hinged rods on both sides so that the middle part of the hinged rod can rotate around the end part of the fixed seat. The bottom end of the hinged rod can push the clamping plate to rotate during the deflection process, so that the two relative clamping plates can be closed and the pipe fitting can be clamped, and the clamping plate can be supported by the support arm to improve the stability of the clamping plate on the pipe fitting. When the pipe fitting is removed, the second motor is controlled to reverse and drive the screw rod to rotate. During the rotation of the screw rod, the movable plate will move downward, and the movable plate squeezes the two hinged rods at the bottom to push the two clamping plates to deflect, that is, the two clamping plates can be opened, which is convenient for releasing the locking state of the pipe fitting, thereby improving the loading and unloading efficiency of the pipe fitting.

[0020] 3. In the present invention, by controlling the operation of the first motor, the driven gear in the adjusting assembly drives the gear ring to rotate, and the gear ring drives the welding assembly to rotate, so that the welding assembly is not blocked by the limiting assembly, and the first motor is controlled to stop working. Secondly, the welding head is rotated. Since the welding head is threadedly connected to the end of the welding gun, the welding head can be freely extended and retracted inside the welding gun, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the distance between the welding head and the outer wall of the pipe fitting. When welding pipe fittings of different specifications, the optimal welding distance between the welding head and the outer wall of the pipe fitting is guaranteed, thereby making the welding device more versatile.

[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, an adjustment component 6 is installed on one side of the support base 2, and the adjustment component 6 includes a bracket 601, and the bracket 601 is fixedly connected to one side of the support base 2. A first motor 603 is installed on the outer side of the bracket 601, and a driving gear 602 is fixed on the output shaft of the first motor 603. The driving gear 602 is externally meshed and connected with a connecting gear 604, and a driven gear 605 is meshed on the connecting gear 604. The driving gear 602, the connecting gear 604 and the driven gear 605 are respectively installed inside the bracket 601, and the driven gear 605 is connected to the outside of the deflection component 9. The output shaft of the first motor 603 drives the two driving gears 602 to rotate, and the driving gear 602 drives the driven gear 605 to rotate through the connecting gear 604, so that the driven gear 605 can drive the welding component 10 to rotate by driving the deflection component 9, so as to facilitate the automatic adjustment of the position of the welding component 10.

[0033] like Figure 6As shown, the other side of the support seat 2 is fixedly connected with a baffle 7, and the side where the adjustment component 6 and the baffle 7 are away from each other is respectively installed with a limit component 8, and the limit component 8 includes a fixed seat 801, and the fixed seat 801 is installed on the bracket 601 and the baffle 7. A screw rod 802 is installed in the fixed seat 801, and the top end of the screw rod 802 passes through the fixed seat 801 and is connected to a second motor 803, and the second motor 803 is fixed on one side of the bracket 601, and the bottom end of the screw rod 802 is movably connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the fixed seat 801. The external thread of the screw rod 802 is connected to the movable plate 804, and hinge rods 805 are installed on both sides of the bottom of the movable plate 804. The middle part of the hinge rod 805 is hinged to the fixed seat 801 through a pin, and the bottom end of the hinge rod 805 is installed on the top side of the clamping plate 806 through a pin. Because the movable plate 804 is threadedly connected to the outside of the screw rod 802, the movable plate 804 can move up and down outside the screw rod 802 during the rotation of the screw rod 802, which is convenient for adjusting the angle of the two hinge rods 805 below to control the opening and closing of the clamping plate 806. The other side of the top of the splint 806 is hinged with a support arm 807 through a pin, and the top of the support arm 807 is hinged to the bottom of the fixed seat 801 through a pin. The bottom end of the hinged rod 805 can push the splint 806 to rotate during the deflection process, so that the two opposite splints 806 are closed and the pipe 4 is clamped. The support arm 807 cooperates to support the splint 806, thereby improving the stability of the splint 806 in clamping the pipe 4.

[0034] like Figure 7-8 As shown, the bottom of the adjustment component 6 is connected to a deflection component 9, and the deflection component 9 includes a gear ring 901, which is meshed with the driven gear 605, and the two sides of the gear ring 901 are respectively fixedly connected with an ear plate 902 and a slip ring 903; a slideway 11 is provided on one side of the support seat 2 close to the deflection component 9, and the slip ring 903 is slidably connected in the slideway 11, and the cross-sectional shapes of the slip ring 903 and the slideway 11 are both T-shaped; because the cross-sectional shapes of the slip ring 903 and the slideway 11 are The T-shape enables the slideway 11 to support and limit the slip ring 903, and the slip ring 903 will not separate from the slideway 11, thereby ensuring the stability of the rotation of the ring gear 901 and the ear plate 902; through the mutual cooperation between the ring gear 901 and the driven gear 605, because the two driven gears 605 have the same rotation direction and are meshed with the ring gear 901, the driven gear 605 can drive the ring gear 901 to rotate, thereby improving the stability of the ring gear 901 driving the welding assembly 10 to rotate.

[0035] A welding assembly 10 is installed on one side of the inner wall of the deflection assembly 9. The welding assembly 10 is located between the limit assembly 8 and the support seat 2, and the welding assembly 10 is arranged above the pipe fitting 4. The welding assembly 10 includes an extension block 101, which is fixed to the inner walls of the gear ring 901 and the ear plate 902. A welding gun 102 is installed on the other side of the extension block 101. The bottom end of the welding gun 102 is threadedly connected with a welding head 103. Since the welding head 103 is threadedly connected to the end of the welding gun 102, the welding head 103 can be freely telescopically adjusted inside the welding gun 102, which is convenient for adjusting the distance between the welding head 103 and the outer wall of the pipe fitting 4, and ensuring the optimal welding distance between the welding head 103 and the outer wall of the pipe fitting 4.

[0036] A method for using an automatic rotary welding device for automobile curved pipe fittings, the method comprising the following steps:

[0037] When welding the curved pipe fitting 4 of the automobile, the pipe fitting 4 is placed in the notch 5 at the bottom of the support seat 2, so that the pipe fitting 4 can pass through the clamping plates 806 in the two limiting assemblies 8, and the pipe fitting 4 is moved horizontally, so that the welding position of the pipe fitting 4 corresponds to the position of the welding assembly 10, and then the second motor 803 is controlled to work so that it drives the screw rod 802 to rotate. Since the movable plate 804 is threadedly connected to the outside of the screw rod 802, the movable plate 804 can move up and pull the hinge rods 805 on both sides, so that the middle part of the hinge rod 805 rotates around the end of the fixed seat 801, and the bottom end of the hinge rod 805 can push the clamping plate 806 to rotate during the deflection process, so that the two opposite clamping plates 806 are closed and the pipe fitting 4 is clamped, and the clamping plate 806 is supported by the support arm 807 to improve the stability of the clamping plate 806 on the pipe fitting 4;

[0038] After completing the locking work of the pipe fitting 4, the welding head 103 in the welding assembly 10 is aligned with the welding part of the pipe fitting 4, and the first motor 603 is started. The output shaft of the first motor 603 drives the two driving gears 602 to rotate, and the driving gear 602 drives the driven gear 605 to rotate through the connecting gear 604. Since the two driven gears 605 rotate in the same direction and are meshed with the gear ring 901, the driven gear 605 can drive the gear ring 901 to rotate, and the gear ring 901 drives the slip ring 903 to slide in the slideway 11. The cross-sectional shape of 11 is T-shaped, so that the slideway 11 can play the role of supporting and limiting the slip ring 903, ensuring the stability of the rotation of the gear ring 901 and the ear plate 902. During the rotation of the gear ring 901, the welding assembly 10 can be driven to revolve around the center of the pipe 4. At the same time, the welding assembly 10 works, and the welding gun 102 cooperates with the welding head 103 to automatically weld the connection of the pipe 4. After the welding gun 102 and the welding head 103 rotate around the outer wall of the pipe 4 for one circle, the first motor 603 is started to reverse, so that the welding assembly 10 can return to its original position;

[0039] When welding pipes 4 of different specifications, in order to ensure the best welding distance between the welding head 103 and the outer wall of the pipe 4, the first motor 603 is controlled to work, so that the driven gear 605 in the adjustment component 6 drives the ring gear 901 to rotate, and the ring gear 901 drives the welding component 10 to rotate, so that the welding component 10 is not blocked by the limit component 8, and the first motor 603 is controlled to stop working, and then the welding head 103 is rotated. Since the welding head 103 is threadedly connected to the end of the welding gun 102, the welding head 103 can be freely extended and adjusted inside the welding gun 102, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the distance between the welding head 103 and the outer wall of the pipe 4;

[0040] When removing the pipe fitting 4, control the second motor 803 to reverse and drive the screw rod 802 to rotate. During the rotation of the screw rod 802, the movable plate 804 will move downward, and the movable plate 804 will squeeze the two hinged rods 805 at the bottom to push the two clamping plates 806 to deflect, that is, the two clamping plates 806 can be opened, thereby releasing the locking state of the pipe fitting 4, and then the pipe fitting 4 can be removed.

8. A method for using an automatic rotary welding device for automobile curved pipe fittings, according to any one of claims 1 to 7, characterized in that: The method of use comprises the following steps: When welding a curved automobile pipe fitting (4), the pipe fitting (4) is placed in a notch (5) at the bottom of a support seat (2) so that the pipe fitting (4) can pass through two clamping plates (806) in the limiting assemblies (8). The pipe fitting (4) is horizontally moved so that the welding position of the pipe fitting (4) corresponds to the position of the welding assembly (10). Then, the second motor (803) is controlled to work so that it drives the screw rod (802) to rotate. Since the moving plate (804) is threadedly connected to the outside of the screw rod (802), the moving plate (804) is (804) can move upward and pull the hinged rods (805) on both sides, so that the middle part of the hinged rod (805) rotates around the end of the fixed seat (801), and the bottom end of the hinged rod (805) can push the clamping plate (806) to rotate during the deflection process, so that the two opposite clamping plates (806) are closed and the pipe fitting (4) is clamped, and the support arm (807) is used to support the clamping plate (806), thereby improving the stability of the clamping plate (806) on the pipe fitting (4); After the locking work of the pipe (4) is completed, the welding head (103) in the welding assembly (10) is aligned with the welding position of the pipe (4), and the first motor (603) is started. The output shaft of the first motor (603) drives the two driving gears (602) to rotate, and the driving gear (602) drives the driven gear (605) to rotate through the connecting gear (604). Since the two driven gears (605) rotate in the same direction and are meshed with the ring gear (901), the driven gear (605) can drive the ring gear (901) to rotate, and the ring gear (901) drives the slip ring (903) to slide in the slideway (11). The cross-sectional shape of the slideway (11) is T-shaped, so that the slideway (11) can play a role in supporting and limiting the slip ring (903), ensuring the stability of the rotation of the gear ring (901) and the ear plate (902). During the rotation of the gear ring (901), the welding assembly (10) can be driven to revolve around the center of the pipe fitting (4). At the same time, the welding assembly (10) works, and the welding gun (102) and the welding head (103) cooperate to automatically weld the connection of the pipe fitting (4). After the welding gun (102) and the welding head (103) rotate around the outer wall of the pipe fitting (4) for one circle, the first motor (603) is started to reverse, so that the welding assembly (10) can return to its original position; When welding pipes (4) of different specifications, in order to ensure the best welding distance between the welding head (103) and the outer wall of the pipe (4), the first motor (603) is controlled to work, so that the driven gear (605) in the adjustment component (6) drives the ring gear (901) to rotate, and the ring gear (901) drives the welding component (10) to rotate, so that the welding component (10) is not blocked by the limit component (8), and the first motor (603) is controlled to stop working, and then the welding head (103) is rotated. Since the welding head (103) is threadedly connected to the end of the welding gun (102), the welding head (103) can be freely extended and adjusted inside the welding gun (102), thereby facilitating the adjustment of the distance between the welding head (103) and the outer wall of the pipe (4); When removing the pipe fitting (4), the second motor (803) is controlled to reverse and drive the screw rod (802) to rotate. During the rotation of the screw rod (802), the movable plate (804) moves downward, and the movable plate (804) squeezes the two hinge rods (805) at the bottom to push the two clamping plates (806) to deflect, that is, the two clamping plates (806) can be opened, thereby releasing the locking state of the pipe fitting (4), and then the pipe fitting (4) can be removed.
