[0055] Both sides of the positioning block 55 fix the side seat 57 through the connecting rod 56. The adjusting screw 58 is screwed on the side seat 57. The bottom is connected to the pressure ball 59 through a support block.

[0056] The abutting and adjusting assembly includes a support 7 and a receiving cavity 8. By abutting and positioning through the profiling and positioning device, the opening and closing state of the spiral water cooling channel 4 is adjusted to facilitate timely and uniform heat dissipation.

[0057] Figure 8 This is a schematic structural diagram of the abutting and adjusting assembly part of the present invention, Figure 9 For the present invention Figure 8Schematic diagram of the enlarged structure at position C in the figure. A receiving cavity 8 is provided on the positioning block 55. A first airbag 81 is arranged in the receiving cavity 8. An installation block 82 is fixed to the opening of the receiving cavity 8 by screws. A top block 83 is slidably inserted into the installation block 82. The top block 83 is bonded to the first airbag 81. One end of the first airbag 81 is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe 84. The end of the top block 83 protrudes. One side of the positioning block 55 is used to abut against the middle edge of the lower cross beam of the passenger door in front of the bus.

[0058] When the positioning block 55 abuts against the workpiece, the first airbag 81 in its receiving cavity 8 is compressed, pushing the top block 83 to slide inward, squeezing the gas in the first airbag 81 and transporting it to the second airbag 74 through the connecting pipe 84.

[0059] Figure 10 Cross-sectional view of the square seat of the present invention, Figure 11 For the present invention Figure 10 Schematic diagram of the enlarged structure at position D in the figure. The adjusting assembly includes a support block 9. A support block 9 is fixedly connected above the top block 83 on one side of the positioning block 55. A square seat 91 is fixedly connected to the top of the support block 9. A sliding cavity is provided on the square seat 91. A fixing plate 92 is arranged at the opening of the sliding cavity. The fixing plate 92 is fixed to the square seat 91 by screws.

[0060] A contact block 94 is slidably inserted into the sliding cavity. The contact block 94 has an "L" - shaped structure and a semi - circular arc - shaped bottom. A contact spring 95 is fixedly connected between the contact block 94 and the sliding cavity. A third airbag 93 is bonded between the other end of the contact block 94 and the fixing plate 92. A communicating pipe 96 is connected between the third airbag 93 and the first airbag 81.

[0061] When the first airbag 81 is compressed, the gas in the first airbag 81 is transmitted to the third airbag 93 through the communicating pipe 96. The third airbag 93 expands and squeezes the contact block 94 to move downward. Then, the end of the contact block 94 abuts against the lower cross - beam welded body, further increasing the fixing points, thereby improving the clamping stability of the lower cross - beam welded body.

[0062] Figure 12 Schematic diagram of another part of the contact adjusting assembly of the present invention, Figure 13 For the present invention Figure 12 Schematic diagram of the enlarged structure at position E in the figure. The contact adjusting assembly includes a movable sealing block 73. A support 7 is arranged on the lower cross - beam welding table 1. A limit seat 71 is fixedly connected to the top of the support 7. The limit seat 71 is fixedly connected to one side of 4. A receiving cavity 72 is provided on the limit seat 71. A movable sealing block 73 is slidably inserted into the receiving cavity 72. A second airbag 74 is bonded between the movable sealing block 73 and one side of the receiving cavity 72. The second airbag 74 is communicated with the connecting pipe 84. One end of the movable sealing block 73 is inserted into the cross - section of the opening of the spiral water - cooling channel 4. A return spring 75 is fixedly connected between the movable sealing block 73 and the other side of the receiving cavity 72.

[0063] The second airbag 74 is inflated and expanded, pushing the movable sealing block 73 to extend from the receiving cavity 72 against the resistance of the return spring 75, partially opening the port cross-section of the spiral water-cooling channel 4 and increasing the cooling water flow rate; when the workpiece disengages from the abutment, the first airbag 81 resets, the gas in the second airbag 74 flows back, and the return spring 75 pulls the movable sealing block 73 to reset and close the port, reducing the flow rate.

[0064] After the workpiece is positioned, the positioning block 55 abuts against its edge to trigger the top block 83 to squeeze the first airbag 81, and the gas drives the second airbag 74 to expand through the connecting pipe 84, pushing the movable sealing block 73 to open the spiral water-cooling channel 4 and enhancing heat dissipation; when disengaging from the abutment, the system automatically resets, forming a closed-loop control of contact - pressurization - heat dissipation, ensuring that the heat in the welding area is adjusted in real time according to the pressure change, avoiding local overheating or heat dissipation lag, and improving the welding accuracy and equipment reliability.

[0065] One side of the movable sealing block 73 is fixedly connected with a side plate 76. The side plate 76 is closely attached to one side of the second airbag 74. The length of the side plate 76 is greater than the width of the second airbag 74 in the initial state. A cylinder 77 is embedded in the limit seat 71. The cylinder 77 is electrically connected to the control center. The telescopic end of the cylinder 77 is fixedly connected with a push plate 78. One side of the push plate 78 abuts against the movable sealing block 73 in the initial state.

[0066] When the temperature sensor 41 detects a large temperature difference in the spiral water-cooling channel 4, the control center starts the cylinder 77. The telescopic end of the cylinder 77 pushes the push plate 78 to squeeze the movable sealing block 73. The end of the movable sealing block 73 moves away from the port cross-section of the spiral water-cooling channel 4, further increasing the port opening and enhancing the cooling effect.

[0067] During actual use, the serpentine groove 31 on the surface of the profiling reference block 3 matches the curved surface contour of the lower crossbeam to ensure that the workpiece fits without suspension; the driving double screw 52 drives the two side sliders 53 to move synchronously and reversely, driving the positioning block 55 to center and clamp towards the center of the workpiece, eliminating the positioning deviation caused by the non-matching curved surface of the traditional rigid fixture. In the dynamic pressure regulating mechanism, the pressure ball 591 detects the contact pressure in real time through the pressure sensor 591. After feedback to the control system, the height of the adjusting screw 58 is automatically adjusted to make the clamping force evenly distributed in the curved surface contact area, avoiding local stress concentration or loosening, and preventing welding edge misalignment and undercut defects;

[0068] The plasma welding head 23 is driven by the manipulator 25 and the electric telescopic rod 24. Combined with the lateral sliding of the sliding seat 21 along the driving main screw 26, precise trajectory control of the welding head in three-dimensional space is realized to adapt to the complex weld path of the lower crossbeam. During the welding process, the plasma welding controller 22 dynamically adjusts parameters such as current and gas flow rate to ensure the efficient penetration and weld forming quality of the thin-walled crossbeam.

[0069] When the positioning block 55 abuts against the workpiece, the first airbag 81 is compressed to convey gas to the second airbag 74 through the connecting pipe 84, pushing the movable sealing block 73 to open the opening of the spiral water-cooling channel 4 and increasing the cooling water flow rate; when the abutment is disengaged, the return spring 75 pulls the movable sealing block 73 to reset and close the opening; the spiral water-cooling channel 4 is embedded inside the profiling reference block 3, and the cooling water circulates through the cold water tank 6 to absorb the concentrated heat in the welding area; the greater the contact pressure, the greater the opening degree of the water-cooling channel, forming a dynamic matching between the welding heat input and the heat dissipation intensity, suppressing the shrinkage deformation of the crossbeam caused by high temperature, and ensuring the assembly accuracy of the car door; when the first airbag 81 is compressed, the gas in the first airbag 81 is transmitted to the third airbag 93 through the communicating pipe 96, and the third airbag 93 expands and squeezes the abutting block 94 to move downward, and then the end of the abutting block 94 abuts against the lower crossbeam welded body, further increasing the fixing points, thereby improving the clamping stability of the lower crossbeam welded body.

[0070] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
