[0002] Chinese patent CN108465913A discloses a precise push-pull wire feeding device, which uses a three-steel ball wire feeding chuck, has low cost, high reliability, can realize the push-pull action of welding wire "forward-backward-forward-backward", has the advantages of good welding quality and improved welding efficiency, etc. However, for welding wire made of softer materials such as aluminum, it is easy to be pinched by the steel balls, affecting the welding stability. Summary of the invention

[0003] The object of the present invention is to provide a welding wire clamping mechanism adopting a double wire feeding wheel parallel installation structure which will not cause clamping damage to the welding wire, effectively improves welding stability and improves welding efficiency.

[0005] The wire feed roll shaft of the wire feed roll is located in the waist-shaped groove of the retaining clip.

[0006] During operation: the wire feeding wheel rotates during the wire feeding process, and the wire pushing force is used to make the wire feeding wheel slide forward. The outer diameter of the wire feeding wheel contacts the inclined slider to reduce clamping friction, and the welding wire is transported stably. When the wire feeding is paused or reversed, the welding wire drives the wire feeding wheel, and the inclined slider slides inward along the inclined surface, converting the axial displacement into radial clamping force, triggering the self-locking effect of the double wire feeding wheels to prevent the welding wire from retreating. At the same time, the retaining frame ensures the accuracy of the component movement trajectory, and the wire guide tube guides the wire path to reduce bending loss.

[0007] The present invention increases the contact area through R-shaped groove or V-shaped groove to prevent deformation of welding wire, double-wheel synchronous clamping ensures straightness, springs adapt to welding wires of different diameters, rolling friction reduces wear, and modular structure facilitates maintenance. It is suitable for automated welding equipment, high-precision welding scenarios, and switching requirements for welding wires of multiple specifications, significantly improving welding stability and efficiency. The R-shaped groove is particularly suitable for feeding aluminum welding wire, and the V-shaped groove is particularly suitable for feeding steel welding wire. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
