Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of welding technology, and in particular to a clamp mechanism with an inspection module. Background Art

[0002] Currently, using fixtures to position and secure products is a common process in welding technology. However, existing welding fixtures present numerous challenges in practical applications. First, traditional fixture mechanisms lack intuitive maintenance indicators. When a fixture malfunctions or operates abnormally, operators struggle to quickly locate the problem visually, often requiring machine downtime for individual inspections. This results in inefficient maintenance and increased labor costs. Second, existing fixtures often feature exposed wiring, lacking effective protective structures. This can lead to damage from collisions, wear, and other factors over long periods of use, impacting the stability and lifespan of the equipment. Furthermore, some fixtures are fixed, making it difficult to flexibly add additional components based on production needs, limiting the scalability of production lines. For example, published patent 2019108845812 discloses a laser welding fixture that uses in-process quality detection sensors to provide real-time feedback on welding data during the welding process. This allows for detection of various faults and transmits the data in real time for technicians to analyze the cause. Compared to traditional laser welding fixtures, this design offers intelligent, parameterized control, enabling better control of the welding process and quality. However, if the welding robot fails to start during operation, employees with this structure don't know the cause and will seek out maintenance personnel for troubleshooting. In 80% of cases, this is due to a non-illuminating sensor, resulting in a low line utilization rate. Therefore, designing a fixture mechanism with visual inspection status, comprehensive line protection, and an expandable structure to address the existing problems of inconvenient maintenance, fragile lines, and poor scalability has become a key area of ​​urgent improvement in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a fixture mechanism with a maintenance module, in which all sensors on the fixture are externally connected through electrical circuits. When the sensor senses a part, the electrical signal is transmitted to the indicator light, and the indicator light lights up. In this way, it can be clearly seen at which position the sensor is not lit, thereby shortening the maintenance time and improving the line operation rate.

[0004] The present invention provides a fixture mechanism with an inspection module, comprising a fixture base, a supporting plate provided on the fixture base, a fixture mounting hole provided on the upper end of the supporting plate, a fixture mounted on the fixture mounting hole, a wiring tube provided above the supporting plate, the wiring tube for protecting the circuit of the mechanism, a sensor provided on the fixture, the working status of the fixture detected by the sensor, the circuit of the sensor also routed through the wiring tube, a display box provided on the wiring tube, an indicator light provided on the display box, the indicator light and the circuit of the sensor connected in series.

[0005] A further improvement is that the number of indicator lights on the display box is the same as the number of sensors on the fixture, and the indicator lights operate according to the working conditions of the connected sensors.

[0006] A further improvement is that: the number of the display boxes is two, and they are distributed on the left and right sides of the carrying plate, respectively indicating the sensors on both sides of the upper end of the carrying plate.

[0007] A further improvement is that: an additional installation hole is provided on the wiring tube, and a mounting seat is installed on the additional installation hole, and an additional clamp is installed through the mounting seat.

[0008] A further improvement is that a positioning block is provided on the carrying plate, and the installation position of the clamp is limited by the positioning block.

[0009] A further improvement is that a centralized air intake pipe is provided at the lower end of the supporting plate, and an adjustment plate is provided next to the centralized air intake pipe, and the position of the centralized air intake pipe is adjusted by the adjustment plate.

[0010] A further improvement is that the clamp is installed on the wiring tube through a mounting hole.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: all sensors on the fixture are externally connected through electrical circuits. When the sensor senses a part, the electrical signal is transmitted to the indicator light, and the indicator light lights up. In this way, it can be clearly seen at which position the sensor is not lit, which shortens the maintenance time and improves the line operation rate. At the same time, the position of the additionally installed fixture can be adjusted through the installation holes and the mounting seat to meet different usage requirements. At the same time, the centralized air intake pipe with adjustable direction can adapt to the air intake angles at different positions, and the positioning block is used to ensure the installation accuracy of the fixture.
