Four moving wheels 22 are provided, and the four moving wheels 22 are respectively installed at the four corners of the bottom end of the moving plate 21, the mounting frame 23 is installed in the middle of the bottom end of the moving plate 21, two limiting frames 24 are provided, the two limiting frames 24 are respectively installed on the upper parts of the outer walls on both sides of the mounting frame 23, and the lower parts of the outer surfaces of the two limiting frames 24 are respectively slidably connected with the two limiting grooves 10, the driving shaft 25 is installed between the inner walls on both sides of the mounting frame 23 through a bearing, the driving gear 26 is installed in the middle of the outer surface of the driving shaft 25, the adjusting motor 27 is installed in the lower part of the outer wall of the mounting frame 23, and a plurality of speed sensors 28 and a plurality of temperature sensors 29 are provided, and a plurality of speed sensors 28 and a plurality of temperature sensors 29 are installed at the top of the moving plate 21.

[0056] Depend on Figures 1 to 7 It can be seen that a controller 7 is installed in the middle of the outer wall of the fixing frame 5, two pipe bodies 8 are installed in each of the multiple fixing mechanisms 3, a supporting frame 9 is installed at the bottom end of the processing table 1, triggers 11 are embedded on both sides of the bottom inner wall of the two limiting grooves 10, and a plurality of tooth grooves 12 are opened in the middle of the top of the processing table 1;

[0057] The adjustment mechanism 4 includes a stabilizing frame 41, a driver 42, an adjusting screw 43, an adjusting frame 44, an adjusting rack 45 and a limit frame 46. The stabilizing frame 41 is installed between the outer walls of the two middle fixing mechanisms 3, the driver 42 is installed at one end of the stabilizing frame 41, the adjusting screw 43 is installed between the inner walls on both sides of the stabilizing frame 41 through a bearing, the adjusting frame 44 is installed on the outer surface of the adjusting screw 43, the adjusting rack 45 is installed on the top of the adjusting frame 44, and a plurality of limit frames 46 are provided. The plurality of limit frames 46 are all sleeved and installed on the outer surface of the adjusting rack 45, and the plurality of limit frames 46 are respectively installed on the outer walls of the plurality of fixing mechanisms 3.

[0058] As can be seen from the above, when the pipe bodies 8 are installed in the multiple fixing mechanisms 3, the controller 7 can be used to control the adjustment motor 27 to start, so that the drive shaft 25 drives the drive gear 26 to rotate. At this time, through the meshing transmission between the drive gear 26 and the multiple tooth grooves 12, the sliding limit of the limit frame 24 in the limit groove 10 is coordinated, and the moving wheel 22 moves in the limit groove 10, so that the moving plate 21 can stably drive the multiple fixing mechanisms 3 to move, and then the positions of the multiple pipe bodies 8 can be stably moved. When the moving wheel 22 contacts the trigger 11, the information can be transmitted to the controller 7 to control the adjustment motor 27 is closed, the multiple fixing mechanisms 3 on one side can be accurately moved to the bottom of the multiple welding heads 63, so that the multiple pipe bodies 8 on one side can be welded, and it is also convenient to install or remove the pipe body 8 on the fixing mechanism 3 on the other side, so that the welding and loading and unloading operations of the pipe body 8 can be carried out simultaneously. Further, during the welding process, the controller 7 can control the driver 42 to start, so that the adjusting screw 43 drives the adjusting frame 44 thereon to move, so that the adjusting rack 45 can move stably under the guide limit of the multiple limit frames 46. At this time, the meshing of the adjusting rack 45 with the multiple rotating gears 363 is achieved. The transmission makes the rotating shaft 362 drive the fixed frame 361 to rotate, and the positions of multiple pipe bodies 8 can be rotated and adjusted at the same time, so as to facilitate the welding operation of multiple pipe bodies 8 at the same time, shortening the production cycle. At the same time, through multiple speed sensors 28, the moving speed of the pipe body 8 during the welding process can be accurately measured, so as to ensure the stability and consistency of the welding process. In addition, multiple temperature sensors 29 can monitor the temperature changes in the welding area in real time, effectively preventing the adverse effects of overheating or overcooling on the welding quality. At the same time, using multiple weld tracking sensors 13, the weld position can be scanned in real time, and the welding gun path can be dynamically adjusted in combination with advanced AI algorithms. In addition, multiple displacement sensors 14 can monitor the displacement changes of the pipe body 8 during the welding process in real time to ensure the accuracy of the welding position. In addition, multiple cameras 15 are also equipped to capture images and videos of the pipe body 8 during the welding process, and detect the welding path and weld position through image processing algorithms, which further enhances the automation capability of the equipment. In summary, the equipment can give full play to its degree of automation, improve overall work efficiency, ensure the efficient and stable progress of welding operations, and have continuous and stable production capacity.

[0059] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 7As shown, the driver 42, the adjustment motor 27, the speed sensor 28, the temperature sensor 29, the trigger 11, the weld tracking sensor 13, the displacement sensor 14 and the camera 15 are all electrically connected to the controller 7, the adjustment frame 44 is configured as an F-type structure, the driving gear 26 is meshed with the tooth groove 12, the limit frame 24 is configured as an L-type structure, and the lower part of the outer surface of the limit frame 24 and the limit groove 10 are both configured as a dovetail structure, and the lower part of the outer surface of the moving wheel 22 is slidably connected to the corresponding limit groove 10.

[0060] As can be seen from the above, it is ensured that each component can work according to the instructions of the controller 7 to achieve automation and precise control. The F-shaped adjustment frame 44 can be limited on the stabilizing frame 41 to improve the stability of the adjustment frame 44 during the adjustment process. The movement of the movable plate 21 can be achieved by engaging the driving gear 26 with the multiple tooth grooves 12. The L-shaped limit frame 24 provides stable support and limitation. The dovetail structure ensures the stable sliding of the limit frame 24 in the limit groove 10 to prevent it from falling off or shaking. The moving wheel 22 rolls in the limit groove 10 to limit the moving wheel 22.

[0061] Embodiment 2:

The mounting frame 31 is mounted on the top of the movable plate 21. The positive and negative screw rods 32 are mounted between the inner walls of both sides of the mounting frame 31 through bearings. The driving motor 33 is mounted on the outer wall of the mounting frame 31. Two adjusting plates 34, guide grooves 35 and clamping mechanisms 36 are provided. Two adjusting plates 34 are respectively mounted on both sides of the outer surface of the positive and negative screw rods 32. Two guide grooves 35 are respectively opened at the bottom ends of the two adjusting plates 34.

The rotating gear 363 is installed on the other end of the rotating shaft 362. There are two electric telescopic rods 364, two clamping blocks 365 and two clamping grooves 366. The two electric telescopic rods 364 are respectively installed at the top and bottom ends of the fixed frame 361, and the two clamping blocks 365 are respectively installed at the output ends of the two electric telescopic rods 364. The two clamping grooves 366 are respectively opened on the opposite surfaces of the two clamping blocks 365.

[0065] Preferably, reference Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the rotating gear 363 is meshed with the adjusting rack 45, the electric telescopic rod 364 and the driving motor 33 are both electrically connected to the controller 7, and the clamping groove 366 is set to a V-shaped structure.

[0066] As can be seen from the above, the movement of the adjusting rack 45 through meshing can realize the rotation of the rotating gear 363, ensuring that the electric telescopic rod 364 and the driving motor 33 can perform telescopic and rotational movements according to the instructions of the controller 7, and the V-shaped clamping groove 366 can facilitate clamping and fixing pipe bodies 8 of different sizes, thereby improving the stability and flexibility of clamping.

A purification box 67 is installed on the outer wall of the air pump 66, and the bottom ends of the purification box 67 and the air pump 66 are both installed on the top of the fixed frame 5.

[0070] As can be seen from the above, when welding operation is required on the pipeline body 8, the controller 7 controls the electric push rod 62 to start, and the electric push rod 62 extends to push the fixed plate 61 downward, so that the folded pipeline on the transmission pipe 64 is unfolded, and the positions of multiple welding heads 63 can be stably moved at the same time, so that the welding heads 63 are in contact with the connection between the two pipeline bodies 8 and welding processing is performed, thereby realizing the welding operation on multiple pipeline bodies 8. Subsequently, the controller 7 starts the vacuum pump 66, which can generate suction force for multiple suction heads 65 through the transmission pipe 64, and can fully extract the gas generated by the pipeline body 8 during the welding process, and input these gases into the purification box 67 through the transmission pipe 64 for purification treatment, thereby avoiding the harm of welding harmful gases to the environment and operators, and improving safety.
