[0047] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0048] A bearing seat annular argon arc welding fixture, including a base 1, a lower pressure plate 2, an annular pressure plate 8, a guide tube 12, a cone sleeve 15, a cone sleeve bolt 16 and a positioning block; the lower part of the base 1 is connected to multiple lower pressure plates 2, and the middle part of the upper end of the base 1 is fixedly connected to the cone sleeve 15 by the cone sleeve bolt 16. Due to the large size of the product, the fixture should be easy to operate to improve work efficiency. The cone sleeve 15 adopts a conical surface structure. When the cone sleeve bolt 16 is tightened downward, the cone sleeve 15 contacts downward with the conical surface of the positioning block, pushing the positioning block to slide, forming a linkage, and meeting the positioning requirements. The outer side of the cone sleeve 15 is fitted with the wedge-shaped surfaces of multiple positioning blocks. The upper end of each positioning block is plugged with a vertically arranged conduit 12. Each conduit 12 is provided with an air passage connected to the inside of the corresponding positioning block. The outer wall of each positioning block is provided with multiple air outlets. Since two annular single pieces need to be welded on the entire annular belt, argon needs to be injected into the product as a protective gas for argon arc welding to isolate the air outside the welding area to prevent oxidation of the welding area to achieve welding requirements. The annular structure welding causes the argon box to be unable to enter the product to inject argon. Therefore, the combined structure of the positioning block and the conduit is used to form an air passage. The argon box can be connected to the conduit, and multiple air outlets are processed at the position where the positioning ring is flush with the welding position. Argon is injected into the inner wall of the product to ensure welding requirements. The upper end of the base 1 is fixedly connected to the annular pressure plate 8 by corresponding connecting bolts. The annular pressure plate 8 adopts an annular structure according to the shape of the product. The pressing part is an inclined surface, which contacts the inclined surface of the outer wall of the product. The annular pressure plate 8 is pressed by connecting bolts, and the positioning blocks are evenly distributed in all directions at the pressing position. At the same time, in order to avoid the conduit for rushing in argon gas, the annular pressure plate 8 is designed into a "flower" shape structure to realize the pressing function of the product.

[0049] The base 1 includes a bottom plate 1-1, columns 1-2 and a top plate 1-3; the upper end of the bottom plate 1-1 is welded and fixed to the lower ends of multiple columns 1-2 evenly distributed along its circumference, and the upper end of each of the columns 1-2 is welded and fixed to the top plate 1-3. The upper surface of the top plate 1-3 is provided with a center hole 1-5 and multiple slideways 1-4. The multiple slideways 1-4 are all arranged along the radial direction of the top plate 1-3 and evenly distributed along the circumference of the top plate 1-3, and the multiple slideways 1-4 are connected to the center hole 1-5; the upper surface of the bottom plate 1-1 is connected to multiple lower pressure plates 2 evenly distributed along its circumference through corresponding supporting structures, a cone sleeve 15 is inserted in the center hole 1-5, and a positioning block is slidably provided in each slideway 1-4.

[0050] Due to the structural characteristics of the product, the welding position is relatively high, so the base 1 uses columns 1-2 to weld the bottom plate 1-1 and the top plate 1-3 to raise the fixture and control it to the welding ring position.

[0051] Each of the positioning blocks includes a positioning ring and an expansion block; the wedge-shaped surface at the inner end of the expansion block is fitted with the wedge-shaped surface of the cone sleeve 15, the outer end of the expansion block is fixedly connected to the inner end of the positioning ring by a positioning pin, the upper end of the expansion block is plugged with a conduit 12, and the expansion block is slidably arranged in the corresponding slideway 1-4, the interior of the positioning ring and the expansion block has an air passage connected to the conduit 12, and the outer side wall of the positioning ring is provided with an air outlet; both ends of the interior of the positioning ring are provided with pads for closing the air passage to ensure normal air outlet.

[0052] In order to ensure the processability of the fixture processing, a two-body structure is adopted between the locating ring and the expansion block, which is convenient for the processing of the slender hole for the argon gas duct and has strong processability. Since the locating ring needs to contact the inside of the product, copper material is used for processing to prevent scratches on the parts. However, the copper locating ring is also easy to be damaged, affecting the positioning. Therefore, a two-body structure is adopted to facilitate the replacement of the locating ring.

[0053] The positioning blocks include large positioning blocks and small positioning blocks of the same number and arranged alternately along the circumference of the base 1. The large positioning blocks include large expansion blocks 18 and large positioning rings 19. The small positioning blocks include small positioning rings 6 and small expansion blocks 11. The side walls of each adjacent large positioning ring 19 and small positioning ring 6 are fitted together.

[0054] The product positioning requirements are high. The top plate in the base 1 is designed with eight evenly distributed slideways 1-4, which cooperate with the expansion block. Four evenly distributed small positioning rings 6 and four evenly distributed large positioning rings 19 are alternately arranged to form a full circle. When the small expansion block 11 slides outward at the junction of the side wall of the large positioning ring 19 and the side wall of the small positioning ring 6, the small positioning ring can push the large positioning ring to form a linkage, which is convenient for operation and adjustment, so that the inclined surface of the positioning ring fits the inside of the product to ensure the positioning requirements. The setting of the large positioning block and the small positioning block better ensures the positioning state.

[0055] An expansion block bolt 13 is slidably inserted on each expansion block, and a washer 14 is sleeved on the outer side of the expansion block bolt 13. The lower end of the expansion block bolt 13 is screwed to the base 1.

[0056] The cone sleeve bolt 16 is plugged with a cylindrical pin 17, which is arranged in the cone sleeve 15. Since the cone sleeve 15 is difficult to disassemble after the cone surface is in contact, after the bolt 16 is inserted into the cone sleeve 15, a φ4 hole is combined and processed on the bolt 16, and the cylindrical pin 17 is assembled. When the bolt is disassembled, the cone sleeve 15 can be taken out, which is convenient for disassembly.

[0058] S1: fix the base 1 on the welding workbench;

[0059] S2: The lower part of the product is guided and assembled onto the base 1 through the outer diameter of the top plate in the base 1, and the lower part of the product is pressed and positioned by the lower pressing plate 2;

At the same time, the air outlet of the positioning block corresponds to the welding position H of the product.

[0062] S5: Tighten the expansion block bolt 13 to fix the position of the positioning block through the washer 14;

[0063] S6: Assemble the upper part of the product onto the positioning block to ensure that the upper and lower parts of the product fit together;

The upper and lower parts of the product are positioned and pressed, and the position of the annular argon arc welding to be performed is fixed;

[0065] S8: Connect the argon box pipeline to all the conduits 12 to flush the product with argon;

[0066] S9: Weld the joints between the upper and lower parts of the product to complete the circular argon arc welding of the product.
