[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-8 In this embodiment of the invention, a stainless steel pipe rotating mechanism includes a base plate 1. A fixed plate 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the base plate 1, and a movable plate 4 is provided on the other side of the base plate 1. A moving assembly for driving the movable plate 4 to move is provided on the base plate 1. The moving assembly includes a sliding seat 5, which is fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower end face of the movable plate 4. T-shaped rails 3 are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper end face of the base plate 1 below the movable plate 4. The sliding seat 5 is slidably connected to the T-shaped rails 3 on both sides. A third electric cylinder 37 is fixedly connected to the upper end face of the base plate 1 below the middle of the movable plate 4. The output end of the third electric cylinder 37 is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the movable plate 4 by means of a support. When the movable plate 4 is pushed to move, the output end of the third electric cylinder 37 moves to push the movable plate 4 along the T-shaped rails 3. The sliding cooperation between the sliding seat 5 and the T-shaped rails 3 can ensure the stability and smoothness of the sliding of the movable plate 4.

[0032] Both ends of the fixed plate 2 and the movable plate 4 are fixedly connected to mounting vertical plates 10. Each mounting vertical plate 10 has a U-shaped groove 13 in the middle. A rotating frame is provided above the movable plate 4 and the fixed plate 2 at the position between the mounting vertical plates 10. The rotating frame includes a driven turntable 7 and a driven turntable 11. Several fixed connecting rods 8 are fixedly connected between the driven turntable 7 and the driven turntable 11. Both the driven turntable 7 and the driven turntable 11 have V-shaped grooves 19. One end of the circumference of the driven turntable 11 is fixedly connected to a transmission tooth 20 for transmission. The V-shaped grooves 19 provided on the driven turntable 11 and the driven turntable 7 can be used to place stainless steel pipes 14. The two V-shaped grooves 19 support the stainless steel pipes 14, and can then cooperate with the fixing components to fix the stainless steel pipes 14.

[0033] The mounting vertical plate 10 is provided with a limiting component for limiting the rotation frame. The limiting component includes a plurality of first limiting wheels 6, which are rotatably connected to the mounting vertical plate 10 at the opposite ends of the fixed plate 2 and the movable plate 4. The first limiting wheels 6 are evenly distributed around the circumference of the driven turntable 7, and the surface of the first limiting wheels 6 is in contact with the circumferential surface of the driven turntable 7. Second limiting wheels 36 are rotatably connected to the mounting vertical plate 10 at the opposite ends of the fixed plate 2 and the movable plate 4. The second limiting wheels 36 are distributed around the driving turntable. At position 11, the surface of the second limiting wheel 36 contacts the circumferential surface of the active turntable 11; the mounting vertical plate 10 is provided with ball bearings on the side near the pull arm 17, and the ball bearings are distributed in a ring; through the multiple second limiting wheels 36 and the first limiting wheel 6, the active turntable 11 and the driven turntable 7 can be limited, so that the active turntable 11 and the driven turntable 7 can only rotate within the space restricted by the second limiting wheels 36 and the first limiting wheel 6. At the same time, the ball bearings can reduce the friction between the driven turntable 7 and the active turntable 11 and the mounting vertical plate 10.

[0034] The mounting vertical plate 10 is also equipped with a rotating assembly for driving the rotating frame to rotate. The rotating assembly includes three end shafts 34, each of which is rotatably connected to the mounting vertical plate 10 below the drive turntable 11. The three end shafts 34 are evenly distributed on both sides and the middle of the lower end of the drive turntable 11. A first gear 30 is fixedly connected to the end of each end shaft 34 near the drive turntable 11, and the first gear 30 meshes with the transmission gear 20. A second gear 31 is fixedly connected to the end of each end shaft 34 away from the first gear 30. An idler gear 35 is rotatably connected between each adjacent second gear 31, and the idler gear 35 meshes with the adjacent second gear 31. The mounting vertical plate 10 is equipped with a driving assembly for driving the end shafts 34 to rotate. During operation, the driving assembly drives the end shafts 34 to rotate, which in turn drives the second gears 31 to rotate. The rotation of the second gears 31 drives the idler gears 35 on both sides to rotate. The two idler gears 35 transmit power to the second gears 31 on both sides of the mounting vertical plate 10, thereby causing the three first gears 30 to rotate. The synchronous rotation ensures that even when the V-groove 19 of the drive turntable 11 passes through one of the first gears 30, the other two first gears 30 still mesh with the transmission gears 20, thus ensuring continuous power transmission and avoiding the problem of interruption of rotational power caused by the V-groove 19.

[0035] The driving assembly includes a stepper motor 15, which is fixedly connected to the lower end of the mounting vertical plate 10 at the end of the fixed plate 2 away from the moving plate 4. A drive shaft 29 is fixedly connected to the output end of the stepper motor 15. The end of the drive shaft 29 away from the stepper motor 15 is fixedly connected to a corresponding end shaft 34. An internal hexagonal sleeve 32 is provided above the middle of the base plate 1. A hexagonal shaft 33 is slidably connected within the internal hexagonal sleeve 32. The opposite ends of the internal hexagonal sleeve 32 and the hexagonal shaft 33 are respectively connected to the ends located on both sides of the base plate 1. The end shaft 34 is fixedly connected; when the drive end shaft 34 rotates, the stepper motor 15 drives the transmission shaft 29 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission shaft 29 can drive the end shaft 34 on one side to rotate. At the same time, the internal hexagonal sleeve shaft 32 and the hexagonal shaft 33 can transmit power to the other end shaft 34, thereby realizing the synchronous rotation of the active turntable 11 above the fixed plate 2 and the moving plate 4. Meanwhile, the internal hexagonal sleeve shaft 32 and the hexagonal shaft 33 are slidably connected, so they can adapt to the movement of the moving plate 4, so that the movement of the moving plate 4 can also ensure normal transmission.

[0036] The rotating frame is equipped with a fixing assembly for clamping the stainless steel pipe 14. The fixing assembly includes a tilting shaft 16, which is rotatably connected between the driven turntable 7 and the driving turntable 11. Pipe clamps 18 for fixing the stainless steel pipe 14 are fixedly connected to both ends of the tilting shaft 16. Several pull arms 17 are also fixedly connected to the tilting shaft 16. Tension springs 21 are installed between the ends of the pull arms 17 and adjacent fixing links 8. An actuating arm 22 is fixedly connected to the middle of the tilting shaft 16. Side plate seats 24 are fixedly connected to one side of the base plate 1 at positions corresponding to the actuating arm 22. A support frame 23 is fixedly connected to the side plate seat 24. A first electric cylinder 12 is fixedly connected to the upper part, and rollers 9 are rotatably connected to the output end of the first electric cylinder 12. When fixing the stainless steel pipe 14, the output end of the first electric cylinder 12 drives the rollers 9 to move. The movement of the rollers 9 pushes the bottom of the action arm 22, causing the action arm 22 to rotate against the tension of the tension spring 21. The rotation of the action arm 22 can drive the flipping shaft 16 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the flipping shaft 16 can drive the pipe clamp 18 to rotate synchronously. After the pipe clamp 18 rotates and opens, stainless steel can be inserted into the V-groove 19. After the stainless steel pipe 14 is inserted, the output end of the first electric cylinder 12 is reset. Then, the pull arm 17 rotates under the tension of the tension spring 21. The pull arm 17 drives the flip shaft 16 to rotate. The rotation of the pull arm 17 can drive the pipe clamp 18 to reset so that the pipe clamp 18 clamps the stainless steel pipe 14. The combined force of the tension of multiple tension springs 21 is used to clamp the stainless steel pipe 14. The tension of the tension spring 21 makes the pipe clamp 18 cooperate with the V-groove 19 to form a ring-shaped fixation on the steel pipe, ensuring that the steel pipe does not shift during rotation.

[0037] The base plate 1 is also provided with a positioning component for positioning the stainless steel pipe 14 in the middle. The positioning component includes a vertical slide rod 27, which is fixedly connected to the middle of one side of the upper end face of the base plate 1. A sliding sleeve 28 is slidably connected to the vertical slide rod 27. A positioning block 25 is fixedly connected to one side of the sliding sleeve 28. A second electric cylinder 26 is fixedly connected to the upper end face of the base plate 1 near the vertical slide rod 27. The output end of the second electric cylinder 26 is fixedly connected to the positioning block 25. When positioning the steel pipe, the welding ends of the two stainless steel pipes 14 to be welded can be pushed against the two surfaces of the positioning block 25 respectively. Then, the second electric cylinder 26 drives the positioning block 25 to descend to avoid the obstruction, thereby realizing the positioning of the two stainless steel pipes 14 and ensuring the accuracy of the weld during subsequent docking.

[0038] Please see Figures 9-10A welding device includes the aforementioned stainless steel pipe rotating mechanism, and further includes a vertical slide 38 fixedly connected to the middle of one side of a base plate 1. A lifting frame 39 is slidably connected to the vertical slide 38. A fourth electric cylinder 41 is provided on one side of the vertical slide 38 to push the lifting frame 39 up and down. A welding torch 40 is installed at the end of the lifting frame 39. When welding a stainless steel pipe 14, the aforementioned stainless steel pipe rotating mechanism is used to rotate the stainless steel pipe 14. Then, the fourth electric cylinder 41 drives the lifting frame 39 to descend so that the welding torch 40 reaches the set position. Then, the welding torch 40, in conjunction with the rotation of the stainless steel pipe 14, can complete the welding of the stainless steel pipe 14.

[0039] The working principle of this invention is as follows: When welding stainless steel pipes 14, the output end of the first electric cylinder 12 drives the roller 9 to move. The movement of the roller 9 pushes the bottom of the action arm 22, causing the action arm 22 to rotate against the tension of the tension spring 21. The rotation of the action arm 22 drives the flipping shaft 16 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the flipping shaft 16 drives the pipe clamp 18 to rotate synchronously. After the pipe clamp 18 rotates, it opens. Then, the two stainless steel pipes 14 to be welded are placed in the rotating frame above the fixed plate 2 and the moving plate 4, respectively. The welding ends of the two stainless steel pipes 14 to be welded are respectively pushed against the two surfaces of the positioning block 25. Then, the second electric cylinder 26 drives the positioning block 25 to descend to avoid the weld. Then, the output end of the first electric cylinder 12 is reset. Then, the pull arm 17 is pulled by the tension spring 21. Under the pulling force of 1, the pull arm 17 drives the flip shaft 16 to rotate. The rotation of the pull arm 17 can drive the pipe clamp 18 to reset and clamp the pipe clamp 18 onto the stainless steel pipe 14. The combined pulling force of multiple tension springs 21 is used to clamp the stainless steel pipe 14. During welding, the second electric cylinder 26 first drives the positioning block 25 to descend to avoid obstacles. Then the moving component drives the moving plate 4 to move towards the fixed plate 2, so that the ends of the two stainless steel pipes 14 are connected together. After docking, the fourth electric cylinder 41 drives the lifting frame 39 to descend and the welding torch 40 reaches the set position. Then the rotating component drives the rotating frame to rotate and the stainless steel pipe 14 rotates. At the same time as the rotation, the welding torch 40 performs welding synchronously. After the rotating frame rotates one revolution, it stops, thus completing the welding of the stainless steel pipe 14.
