[0034] The present invention will be further illustrated by way of embodiments below, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments described herein.
[0035] like Figure 1-10 As shown, a positioning fixture includes a movable platform 1, the top of which is provided with a top plate 102; it also includes:
[0036] The partition 2 has two movable platforms 1, and the two movable platforms 1 are fixedly installed on the bottom sides of the partition 2 respectively. The top plates 102 of the two movable platforms 1 are each provided with a clamping assembly 3.
[0037] A rotary drive mechanism 8, the output end of which is connected to the bottom center of the partition 2;
[0038] The guide plate 4 is fixedly installed on the top plate 102 of the movable table 1, and the height of the top surface of the guide plate 4 gradually decreases along the direction away from the partition plate 2.
[0039] A striking mechanism 14 is used to strike the guide plate 4. The bottom surface of the guide plate 4 and the top surface of the top plate 102 of the movable table 1 form a cavity 13. The striking mechanism 14 is disposed in the cavity 13.
[0040] In specific implementation, the bottom of the movable platform 1 is provided with a moving wheel 101. When the rotary drive mechanism 8 drives the partition 2 and the two movable platforms 1 to rotate together around the center of the partition 2, the positions of the two movable platforms 1 are swapped, thereby swapping the positions of the two clamping components 3.
[0041] like Figure 2-3 As shown, as a specific technical solution, the clamping assembly 3 includes a first clamping part and a second clamping part; the first clamping part and the second clamping part are respectively used to clamp two workpieces to be welded.
[0042] The first clamping part includes a first carrier 301. A first movable clamping seat 304 and a first fixed clamping seat 302 are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the top of the first carrier 301, and the first fixed clamping seat 302 is fixedly connected to the first carrier 301. A first cylinder 303 is fixedly mounted on the first carrier 301, and the output shaft end of the first cylinder 303 is fixedly connected to the first movable clamping seat 304. The first cylinder 303 is used to drive the first movable clamping seat 304 away from or towards the first fixed clamping seat 302. A plurality of first positioning pins 305 are fixedly mounted on the first carrier 301. A plurality of second carriers 306 are provided on one side of the first clamping part. A support base 307 is fixedly installed on the top of the second carrier 306, and a plurality of second positioning pins 308 are also fixedly installed on the top of the second carrier 306. The second clamping part is located on the side of the second carrier 306. The second clamping part includes a third carrier 311. A second fixed clamping seat 315 is fixedly installed on the third carrier 311. A flipping frame 309 is hingedly installed on the third carrier 311 through a first rotating shaft 313. A first movable clamping seat 304 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the flipping frame 309. A second cylinder 312 is hingedly installed on one side of the third carrier 311, and the output shaft end of the second cylinder 312 is hinged to one side of the flipping frame 309.
[0043] The clamping assembly 3 is provided with a first clamping part and a second clamping part, which are used to clamp two different workpieces respectively, and the two workpieces are welded in a clamped and fixed state; the first clamping part and the second clamping part can also be used independently to fix and clamp a single workpiece.
[0044] The specific use of clamping assembly 3 is as follows: When fixing a workpiece through the second clamping part, the flipping frame 309 of the second clamping part is first in the flipped open state. A workpiece is placed on the support base 307 and the second fixed clamping base 315, and the workpiece is positioned by the second positioning pin 308. Then, the flipping frame 309 is driven to flip by the second cylinder 312, so that the second movable clamping base 314 presses down on the workpiece. The second movable clamping base 314 and the second fixed clamping base 315 clamp the workpiece. When fixing a workpiece through the first clamping part, the first cylinder 303 is first in the retracted state. There is a sufficient distance between the first movable clamping base 304 and the first fixed clamping base 302. The workpiece is placed between the first movable clamping base 304 and the first fixed clamping base 302, and the workpiece is positioned by the first positioning pin 305. The first cylinder 303 extends, driving the first movable clamping base 304 to press the workpiece. The workpiece is clamped and fixed by the first movable clamping base 304 and the first fixed clamping base 302.
[0045] After being clamped and fixed, the two workpieces are positioned by the first positioning pin 305 and the second positioning pin 308 respectively, and the clamping position of the two is fixed, maintaining a fixed posture and position for welding.
[0046] After welding, when removing the workpiece, the first cylinder 303 retracts, causing the first movable clamp 304 to move away from the first fixed clamp 302. The second cylinder 312 drives the flipping frame 309 to flip and open, releasing the clamping of the welded workpiece. Then, the workpiece can be removed manually or by mechanical grippers.
[0047] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the bottoms of the first carrier 301, the second carrier 306, and the third carrier 311 of the clamping assembly 3 are all fixedly mounted with fixing frames 310; the guide plate 4 is a thin metal plate, which can be made of stainless steel; and as shown... Figure 4 As shown, multiple through slots 401 are provided on the guide plate 4 for the fixing frame 310 to pass through; after the fixing frame 310 passes through the through slots 401, its bottom is fixed to the top plate 102 of the movable table 1.
[0048] When welding is performed at the clamping assembly 3, the generated debris will fall onto the guide ramp 4. Its inclined setting facilitates the debris to slide off and avoids accumulation on the movable table 1. Furthermore, in order to facilitate the collection of debris, a detachable receiving cover can be installed on the side of the movable table 1 away from the partition 2 to collect the debris that slides off the guide ramp 4.
[0049] It should be noted that a wedge-shaped strip 5 is fixedly installed on both sides of the guide plate 4, and the wedge-shaped strip 5 is fixed to the top surface of the top plate 102 of the movable table 1; through the wedge-shaped design of the wedge-shaped strip 5, after providing fixation for both sides of the guide plate 4, the guide plate 4 is in an inclined state.
[0050] like Figure 7 As shown, as a specific technical solution, the rotary drive mechanism 8 includes a housing 801 and a base plate 802; the housing 801 is fixedly installed on the base plate 802, a second rotating shaft 803 is rotatably installed inside the housing 801, a motor 805 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate 802, a second gear 806 is fixedly installed on the output shaft end of the motor 805, a first gear 804 is fixedly installed on the second rotating shaft 803, the first gear 804 and the second gear 806 are meshed and connected, and the top end of the second rotating shaft 803 is fixedly connected to the bottom center of the partition 2.
[0051] The bottom of the rotary drive mechanism 8 is directly fixed to the floor in the workshop. The motor 805 drives the second gear 806 to rotate. The second gear 806 meshes with the first gear 804, causing the first gear 804 and the second shaft 803 to rotate together. The second shaft 803 drives the two movable platforms 1 and the partition 2 to rotate together, so that the two movable platforms 1 can switch and exchange positions.
[0052] Among them, motor 805 is preferably a motor with a brake or self-locking structure, wherein the self-locking structure can be a worm gear or a worm.
[0053] like Figure 7-8 As shown, as a specific technical solution, a circular swashplate 10 is fixedly sleeved on the part of the second rotating shaft 803 located inside the housing 801; the bottom surface of the circular swashplate 10 is connected to a lubrication assembly 11 that provides lubrication for the meshing of the first gear 804 and the second gear 806 and a vertical movement mechanism 9 for driving the striking mechanism 14.
[0054] like Figure 7-8As shown, as a specific technical solution, the lubrication assembly 11 includes two sets of injection cylinders; the two sets of injection cylinders are respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom of the circular swashplate 10, and each injection cylinder includes a cylinder body 1101; the bottom of the cylinder body 1101 is fixed to the top surface of the base plate 802, a piston 1103 is fitted inside the cylinder body 1101, and the bottom surface of the piston 1103 and the inner wall of the cylinder body 1101 form a cavity, a second spring 1102 is arranged inside the cavity, and the two ends of the second spring 1102 abut against the bottom surface of the piston 1103 and the bottom inner wall of the cylinder body 1101 respectively, and a vertical rod 1104 is fixedly installed on the top of the piston 1103, and the vertical rod 1104 passes through. A hole is provided at the top of the cylinder 1101, and a spherical surface is provided at the top of the vertical rod 1104. The spherical surface of the vertical rod 1104 abuts against the bottom surface of the circular swashplate 10. A first one-way valve 1105 and a second one-way valve 1106 are installed at the bottom of the cylinder 1101. The first one-way valve 1105 is connected to an oil inlet pipe 1107. An oil tank 1110 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the base plate 802. The oil inlet pipe 1107 extends into the oil tank 1110. The second one-way valve 1106 is connected to an oil outlet pipe 1108. A nozzle 1109 is provided on the oil outlet pipe 1108, and the nozzle 1109 is located above the meshing point of the first gear 804 and the second gear 806.
[0055] The oil outlet pipe 1108 consists of a three-way pipe and two fittings, and is made of rigid pipe. The bottom end of the three-way pipe is connected to the nozzle 1109, while the other two ends of the three-way pipe are connected to the second one-way valves 1106 on the two injection cylinders respectively through two fittings.
[0056] The lubrication assembly 11 operates as follows: when the second rotating shaft 803 is driven to rotate, the swashplate 10 on it rotates together, and the swashplate 10... Figure 7-8 As shown, it is in a tilted state. Figure 7 At this point, the left side of the swashplate 10 is lower than the right side. Figure 8 At this time, the swash plate 10 is higher on the left and lower on the right. When rotating, the swash plate 10 switches back and forth between the two states.
[0057] From the circular swashplate 10 Figure 7 Switch to Figure 8In the indicated state, the swashplate 10 presses down on the vertical rod 1104 of the injection cylinder on the right side inside the outer casing 801. The vertical rod 1104 drives the piston 1103 to move downward, increasing the compression of the second spring 1102. At the same time, the piston 1103 pushes the lubricating oil in the cavity, causing the lubricating oil to pass through the second one-way valve 1106 and the oil outlet pipe 1108, and then be sprayed from the nozzle 1109 to the meshing position of the first gear 804 and the second gear 806. 06 provides lubrication and reduces wear; while the position of the circular swashplate 10 above the left side of the injection cylinder inside the outer casing 801 is increased. Through the elastic force of the second spring 1102, the piston 1103 and the vertical rod 1104 move upward together. The vertical rod 1104 always abuts against the bottom surface of the circular swashplate 10, and the volume of the cavity inside the injection cylinder increases, so as to draw oil and allow the oil in the oil tank 1110 to enter the cavity through the oil inlet pipe 1107 and the first one-way valve 1105 to replenish the oil.
[0058] And the circular swashplate 10 from Figure 8 Switch to Figure 7 In the indicated state, the swash plate 10 presses down on the vertical rod 1104 of the left-side injection cylinder inside the housing 801, injecting oil into the oil outlet pipe 1108 through the injection cylinder and spraying it out through the nozzle 1109 to lubricate the meshing point of the first gear 804 and the second gear 806, while the right-side injection cylinder inside the housing 801 draws in and replenishes the oil.
[0059] Through the above design, lubrication can be automatically provided for the first gear 804 and the second gear 806 when the shaft rotates, reducing wear during continuous operation.
[0060] like Figure 5 As shown, it illustrates the state of the rotary drive mechanism 8 installed on the workshop floor, while the oil tank 1110 is pre-buried underground. An L-shaped oil replenishment pipe is set on the right side of the oil tank 1110 for replenishing oil in the oil tank 1110.
[0061] like Figure 7-8 As shown, as a specific technical solution, an oil receiving cover 12 is provided below the meshing point of the first gear 804 and the second gear 806; the bottom of the oil receiving cover 12 is fixedly connected to a return pipe 1201, the return pipe 1201 is fixed to the base plate 802, and the bottom end of the return pipe 1201 is connected to the top of the oil tank 1110.
[0062] During the lubrication process, excess lubricating oil at the meshing point of the first gear 804 and the second gear 806 falls back into the oil receiving cover 12 and is transported back to the oil tank 1110 through the return pipe 1201.
[0063] In practical implementation, a cooling component can be installed in the oil tank 1110 to keep the lubricating oil at a low temperature for lubrication, thereby cooling the first gear 804 and the second gear 806.
[0064] like Figure 9-10 As shown, as a specific technical solution, the striking mechanism 14 includes a third rotating shaft 1402 rotatably installed in the cavity 13. A third gear 1403 and a cam 1404 are fixedly sleeved on the third rotating shaft 1402. A rack 1401 is meshed with one side of the third gear 1403. The bottom of the rack 1401 is connected to the vertical movement mechanism 9.
[0065] like Figure 7-9 As shown, as a specific technical solution, the vertical movement mechanism 9 includes a rotating connecting part; the top and bottom of the rotating connecting part are respectively connected to a connecting rod 907 and a movable rod 903; the connecting rod 907 is slidably sleeved with a guide hole 103 opened on the top plate 102, the top end of the connecting rod 907 is fixed to the bottom of the rack 1401, the movable rod 903 is slidably sleeved with a through hole opened on the top of the outer shell 801, and the bottom end of the movable rod 903 is provided with a bent part, the bent part of the movable rod 903 extends to the bottom of one side of the circular swashplate 10, a concave hole is opened on the bent part of the movable rod 903, a ball bearing 904 is provided in the concave hole, and the ball bearing 904 abuts against the bottom surface of one side of the circular swashplate 10; the bottom of the movable rod 903 is elastically connected to a base 906 fixed on the inner wall of the outer shell 801 through a first spring 905.
[0066] like Figure 5-6 As shown, as a specific technical solution, the rotating connection part includes an outer ring 901 and an inner ring 902; the outer ring 901 is provided with an annular groove, the inner ring 902 is embedded in the annular groove, the cross-section of the inner ring 902 and the annular groove are both convex, the top surface of the inner ring 902 is fixed to the bottom end of the connecting rod 907, and the bottom surface of the outer ring 901 is fixed to the top end of the movable rod 903.
[0067] The aforementioned convex structure prevents the inner ring 902 and the outer ring 901 from separating vertically, ensuring that they can only rotate.
[0068] Since the connecting rod 907 is located on the movable platform 1, it needs to rotate with the movable platform 1, while the movable rod 903 is located on the outer shell 801 and does not rotate. However, by setting the rotating connection part, when the connecting rod 907 rotates, the inner ring 902 rotates with the connecting rod 907 and rotates within the outer ring 901, which does not affect the movable rod 903 from driving the connecting rod 907 to move up and down.
[0069] The vertical movement mechanism 9 and the striking mechanism 14 operate as follows: the circular swashplate 10... Figure 7-8 Switching between the two states.
[0070] Circular swashplate 10 Figure 7 In this state, connecting rod 907 and guide hole 103 are as follows Figure 10 As shown.
[0071] From the circular swashplate 10 Figure 7 Switch to Figure 8 In the indicated state, the height of the circular swashplate 10 at the bend of the movable rod 903 increases. Through the compression force of the first spring 905, the movable rod 903 moves upward, while the ball bearing 904 remains in contact with the bottom surface of the circular swashplate 10. The movable rod 903 drives the connecting rod 907 and the rack 1401 to move upward together through the rotating connecting part. Through the meshing transmission between the rack 1401 and the gear, the third rotating shaft 1402 drives the cam 1404 to rotate, and the cam 1404 separates from the bottom surface of the guide plate 4.
[0072] From the circular swashplate 10 Figure 8 Switch to Figure 7 In the indicated state, the height of the swashplate 10 at the bend of the movable rod 903 decreases, and the swashplate 10 presses down on the ball bearing 904, causing the ball bearing 904, the movable rod 903, the rotating connecting part, and the connecting rod 907 to move downward together, compressing the first spring 905. The connecting rod 907 drives the rack 1401 to move downward. Through the meshing transmission between the rack 1401 and the third gear 1403, the third rotating shaft 1402 drives the cam 1404 to rotate. The cam 1404 strikes the bottom surface of the guide plate 4 to facilitate the sliding of debris on the guide plate 4.
[0073] Applying the above positioning fixture to a welding device, such as Figure 1 As shown. The welding apparatus includes:
[0074] At least one welded part is disposed on one side of the positioning fixture;
[0075] The welding section includes a robotic arm 6 and a welding torch 7 mounted to the end of the robotic arm 6.
[0076] The positioning fixture drives two movable tables 1 to rotate via a rotary drive mechanism 8, causing the clamping components 3 on the two movable tables 1 to alternately feed material to the welding section. When the clamping component 3 moves to the side of the welding section to perform welding processing on the workpiece on it, the other clamping component 3 uses the aforementioned welding time to change material, remove the welded workpiece, and clamp and fix the next workpiece to be welded. This avoids the need to use a single clamping component 3 to change material after the previous workpiece is welded, which would reduce welding efficiency. By using two clamping components 3 alternately, the welding efficiency is improved.
