[0049] Embodiments of this disclosure are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are used only to explain this disclosure, and should not be construed as limiting this disclosure. Rather, embodiments of this disclosure include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0050] like Figure 1 As shown in the present disclosure, an embodiment of an automatic splicing machine's welding scraping system is proposed, comprising: a machine tool 1, a welding module 3, and a slag scraping module 4. The machine tool 1 is used to clamp a first linear material moving longitudinally when it rises to a first height, so that the machine tool 1 and the first linear material are either relatively stationary or moving relative to each other longitudinally. The welding module 3 and the slag scraping module 4 are respectively disposed on the machine tool 1 and distributed sequentially at intervals along the longitudinal direction. The welding module 3 is used to clamp the splice tail formed after cutting the first linear material and the splice head formed after cutting a second linear material moving longitudinally, and to weld the splice tail and the splice head together to form a splice section. The slag scraping module 4 is used to clamp the splice section and scrape off the welding slag from the surface of the splice section.

[0051] Understandably, when machine tool 1 rises to the first height, it clamps the first linear material moving longitudinally and remains relatively stationary or moves relative to the first linear material. Simultaneously, in coordination with the movement of machine tool 1, the welding module 3 and the slag scraping module 4, which are spaced apart on machine tool 1, process the first linear material and the second linear material in sequence. Specifically, welding module 3 clamps the continuing material tail formed after cutting the first linear material and the continuing material head formed after cutting the second linear material moving longitudinally. Then, it aligns and welds the continuing material tail and the continuing material head to form a continuing section. Finally, slag scraping module 4 clamps the continuing section and scrapes off the welding slag on the surface of the continuing section. Thus, by using welding module 3 and slag scraping module 4, the continuation of the first linear material and the second linear material is realized. Furthermore, based on the integrated cooperation of welding module 3 and slag scraping module 4, the welding process and the slag scraping process are effectively connected. Therefore, by utilizing the continuous operation of the automatic continuing machine, the continuation efficiency and quality of linear materials are improved.

[0052] It should be noted that when industries such as aerospace, shipbuilding, automobiles and their parts (manufacturing), construction and building materials (prefabricated raw materials), steelmaking and metallurgy (continuous casting, continuous rolling, composite material coating, and cladding) use or process linear materials (bars, wires, etc.), the automatic splicing machine of this embodiment can achieve automatic, efficient, and stable splicing of materials.

[0053] In one application scenario, the first linear material, as the previous material, needs to be continued at the tail end, and the second linear material, as the next material, continues the first linear material. Based on this, the machine tool 1 rises to a first height and clamps the first linear material that moves continuously along the longitudinal direction. In conjunction with the relative stillness or relative movement between the machine tool 1 and the first linear material, the first and second linear materials are joined together. Specifically, the irregular section at the tail end of the first linear material is cut off to form a regular continuous tail, and the irregular section at the head end of the second linear material is cut off to form a regular continuous head. Subsequently, the welding module 3 aligns and welds the continuous tail and the continuous head to form a continuous section, while avoiding problems such as incomplete welding and misalignment caused by manual welding and independent operation of each process. Finally, the slag scraping module 4 scrapes off the welding slag on the surface of the continuous section, thereby completing the continuation of the linear material and ensuring the high quality of subsequent operations such as copper coating.

[0054] Machine tool 1 is used for the integrated arrangement of welding module 3, slag scraping module 4, etc., so that linear materials can be processed continuously, achieving high efficiency and high quality of continuous processing. Machine tool 1 has clamping and lifting functions. The specific type of machine tool 1 can be set according to actual needs, and there are no restrictions on it.

[0055] Welding module 3 and slag scraping module 4 are used for welding and slag scraping of the first and second linear materials, thereby achieving efficient continuation operations. The specific types of welding module 3 and slag scraping module 4 can be set according to actual needs, and there are no restrictions on them.

[0056] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the welding module 3 includes: a welding position support 31, a first welding position clamping mechanism 32, a second welding position clamping mechanism 33, a power supply unit 34, and an upsetting drive mechanism 35. The welding position support 31 is mounted on the machine tool 1, and the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 is mounted on the end of the welding position support 31 near the slag scraping module 4 and is used to clamp the continuous material tail. The second welding position clamping mechanism 33 is slidably mounted on the end of the welding position support 31 away from the slag scraping module 4 and is used to clamp the continuous material head. The power output terminal of the power supply unit 34 is connected to the clamping end of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 and the clamping end of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 respectively. The power output terminal of the upsetting drive mechanism 35 is connected to the power input terminal of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33. The upsetting drive mechanism 35 is used to drive the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 to move in the direction close to the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 when the power supply unit 34 supplies power to the clamping end of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 and the clamping end of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33, so that the continuous material head and the continuous material tail are aligned and welded.

[0057] Understandably, when the cut material head and tail are moved to the welding position, the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 clamps the tail and the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 clamps the head. Subsequently, the power supply unit 34 supplies power to the clamping ends of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 and the second welding position clamping mechanism 33. At the same time, the upsetting drive mechanism 35 drives the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 to move in a direction close to the first welding position clamping mechanism 32, so that the tail clamped by the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 and the tail clamped by the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 are aligned and welded to form a continuous section.

[0058] It should be noted that the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 is used to clamp the continuation tail of the first linear material after cutting, and the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 is used to clamp the continuation head of the second linear material after cutting. The specific types of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 and the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 can be set according to actual needs, and there are no restrictions on this.

[0059] The power supply unit 34 is used to supply power to the clamping ends of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 and the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 so as to enable hot-melt welding between the continuing material tail and the continuing material head. The specific type of the power supply unit 34 can be set according to actual needs and there is no limitation. For example, the power supply unit 34 can be a 300kvA AC isolation transformer. The transformer converts the external power and supplies it to the clamping ends of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 and the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 so that the voltage at the clamping end (welding end) is 14V.

[0060] The transformer can be a two-phase 380V power supply transformer or a three-phase 380V power supply transformer.

[0061] A transformer for a two-phase 380V power supply can be matched with current detection, an open system, where the current can be monitored but not controlled, offering advantages such as high economic efficiency; a transformer for a three-phase 380V power supply can be matched with a power regulator and a thyristor, enabling real-time monitoring of the current and achieving closed-loop control, offering advantages such as controllable welding conditions.

[0062] The upsetting drive mechanism 35 is used to drive the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 to move closer to the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 so that the continuing material head and the continuing material tail are aligned and welded. The specific type of the upsetting drive mechanism 35 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto. For example, the upsetting drive mechanism 35 can be a thin-type hydraulic cylinder with a pressure resistance of 16.5 MPa and a push rod that extends and retracts longitudinally. The upsetting drive mechanism 35 (thin-type hydraulic cylinder) is controlled by two hydraulic lines, which are matched with a pressure regulating valve and a throttle valve respectively. The first line matched with the pressure regulating valve provides power for the "flash" stage of the hydraulic cylinder and controls the speed, while the second line matched with the throttle valve provides power for the upsetting stage and controls the speed.

[0063] like Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 and the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 respectively include: a welding position clamping seat 331, a first welding jaw 332, a second welding jaw 333, and a welding position clamping drive assembly 334. The welding position clamping seat 331 of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 is disposed at the end of the welding position support 31 near the slag scraping module 4, and the welding position clamping seat 331 of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 is longitudinally slidably disposed at the end of the welding position support 31 away from the slag scraping module 4. The power output end of the upsetting drive mechanism 35 is connected to the power input end of the welding position clamping seat 331 in the second welding position clamping mechanism 33, and the upsetting drive mechanism 35 is used to drive the welding position clamping seat 331 in the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 to move in a direction close to the welding position clamping seat 331 in the first welding position clamping mechanism 32. The first welding jaw 332 is disposed on the welding position clamping seat 331 and connected to the power output of the power supply unit 34. The first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333 are slidably disposed on the welding position clamping seat 331 and connected to the power output terminal of the power supply unit 34. The first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333 are disposed opposite to each other and form an upward welding position clamping opening. The welding position clamping drive assembly 334 is disposed on the welding position clamping seat 331. The power output terminal of the welding position clamping drive assembly 334 is connected to the power input terminal of the second welding jaw 333. The welding position clamping drive assembly 334 is used to drive the second welding jaw 333 to move laterally. The welding position clamping opening of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 is used to clamp or release the continuation material tail, and the welding position clamping opening of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 is used to clamp or release the continuation material head.

[0064] It is understandable that, since the first welding jaw 332 is mounted on the welding position clamping seat 331, and the second welding jaw 333 is slidably mounted on the welding position clamping seat 331 laterally, the power output end of the welding position clamping drive assembly 334 is connected to the power input end of the second welding jaw 333, enabling the welding position clamping drive assembly 334 to drive the second welding jaw 333 to move laterally. This allows the first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333 of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 to clamp or release the continuing material tail, and the first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333 of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 to clamp or release the continuing material head. Furthermore, since the welding position clamp of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32... The holder 331 is located at one end of the welding position support 31 near the slag scraping module 4, and the welding position clamping seat 331 of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 is slidably located at the end of the welding position support 31 away from the slag scraping module 4. The power output end of the upsetting drive mechanism 35 is connected to the power input end of the welding position clamping seat 331 in the second welding position clamping mechanism 33, so that the upsetting drive mechanism 35 can drive the welding position clamping seat 331 in the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 to move in the direction close to the welding position clamping seat 331 in the first welding position clamping mechanism 32, thereby cooperating with the power supply unit 34 to realize the centering welding between the continuing material tail clamped by the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 and the continuing material head clamped by the second welding position clamping mechanism 33.

[0065] It should be noted that the first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333 are used to clamp or release linear materials under the drive of the welding position clamping drive assembly 334. Specifically, the first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333 of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 clamp or release the continuing material tail, and the first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333 of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 clamp or release the continuing material head. At the same time, by utilizing the power supply unit 34 and the drive of the upsetting drive mechanism 35, the centering welding between the continuing material tail and the continuing material head can be realized.

[0066] The specific types of the first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited thereto. For example, the first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333 are made of copper and are extended to make them clamp stably while increasing the effective contact conductive area with the linear material and reducing the probability of abnormal heating and "arcing".

[0067] The welding position clamping ports of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 and the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 overlap longitudinally to ensure alignment between the continuing material tail and the continuing material head.

[0068] The welding position clamping drive assembly 334 is used to drive the clamping and releasing actions of the first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333. The specific type of the welding position clamping drive assembly 334 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto. Under the drive of the welding position clamping drive assembly 334, the clamping force of the first welding jaw 332 and the second welding jaw 333 is 200KN (0-260), which is calculated based on the friction coefficient between the material surface and the jaw (0.15-0.18) and the upsetting force (30KN), as well as taking into account the working conditions (safety factor of 1.3).

[0069] In some embodiments, the welding position clamping drive assembly 334 includes a welding position cylinder, an adapter plate, and a plurality of elastic elements. The welding position cylinder is mounted on the welding position clamping seat 331, the adapter plate is mounted on the push rod of the welding position cylinder, and the plurality of elastic elements are disposed between the adapter plate and the second welding jaw 333.

[0070] Understandably, since the adapter plate is set on the push rod of the welding position cylinder and multiple elastic elements are set between the adapter plate and the second welding jaw 333, the welding position cylinder can use the cooperation of the adapter plate and multiple elastic elements to drive the second welding jaw 333 to move, thereby cooperating with the first welding jaw 332 to achieve flexible clamping of linear materials.

[0071] It should be noted that the specific types of the welding position cylinder, adapter plate, and multiple elastic elements can be set according to actual needs, and there are no restrictions on this. For example, the push rod of the welding position cylinder (pressure resistant 31.5MP) extends and retracts laterally, and the elastic element is a spring and is sleeved on the telescopic sliding rod between the adapter plate and the second welding jaw 333.

[0072] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the welding module 3 further includes multiple guiding mechanisms 36, each including a guide post 361, an insulating guide sleeve 362, and a guide seat 363. The guide post 361 is longitudinally disposed on the welding position support 31, and the insulating guide sleeve 362 is slidably sleeved on the guide post 361. The guide seat 363 is sleeved on the insulating guide sleeve 362. The welding position clamping seat 331 of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 is disposed on the multiple guide seats 363.

[0073] It is understandable that, since the insulating guide sleeve 362 is slidably mounted on the guide post 361 along the longitudinal direction, and the guide seat 363 is mounted on the insulating guide sleeve 362, the welding position clamping seat 331 of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 is arranged on multiple guide seats 363. This allows the welding position clamping seat 331 of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 to slide along the guide post 361 while also achieving insulation isolation with the insulating guide sleeve 362, thereby ensuring stable welding between the continuing material tail and the continuing material head.

[0074] It should be noted that the guide post 361, insulating guide sleeve 362, and guide seat 363 are used for longitudinal guidance of the welding position clamping seat 331 of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33. The specific types of the guide post 361, insulating guide sleeve 362, and guide seat 363 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited thereto. For example, the guide post 361 can be a special steel tempered and chrome-plated shaft, the insulating guide sleeve 362 can be a POM insulating sliding sleeve with a grease groove, and the guide seat 363 can be a steel sliding sleeve seat (coefficient of about 3.5). Among them, the upsetting force is transmitted and insulated by a POM sheet of reasonable volume, and the upsetting force is 30KN (0-35), which is determined comprehensively based on the material, material diameter, and flash welding process conditions.

[0075] The welding position clamping seat 331 of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 can also be fixedly mounted on the guide mechanism 36 to ensure that the welding position clamping port of the first welding position clamping mechanism 32 and the welding position clamping port of the second welding position clamping mechanism 33 are aligned longitudinally.

[0076] In some embodiments, the automatic welding machine further includes a welding position protective cover, which is disposed on the machine tool 1 and covers the welding module 3, and cooling compressed air is introduced into the welding position protective cover.

[0077] It is understandable that, since the welding position protective cover is set on the machine tool 1 and covers the welding module 3, and cooling compressed air is introduced into the welding position protective cover, the welding module 3 can use compressed air for cooling during the welding of linear materials, thereby achieving efficient welding between the continuation tail and the continuation head.

[0078] It should be noted that the welding position protective cover covers the welding module 3 to form a semi-enclosed space at the welding module 3. Compressed air is introduced from the outside and sprayed out from the nozzle inside the welding position protective cover to cool the welding position. The specific type of welding position protective cover can be set according to actual needs and there are no restrictions on it. For example, the welding position protective cover is a cover structure and avoids the movement path of linear materials.

[0079] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, the slag scraping module 4 includes: a slag scraping support 41, a coarse scraping mechanism 42, a fine scraping mechanism 43, and a slag scraping drive mechanism 44. The coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43 are respectively disposed on the slag scraping support 41 and distributed longitudinally at intervals. The fine scraping mechanism 43 is located on the side of the coarse scraping mechanism 42 away from the welding module 3. The power output end of the slag scraping drive mechanism 44 is connected to the power input end of the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the power input end of the fine scraping mechanism 43, respectively. The slag scraping drive mechanism 44 is used to drive the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43 to rotate when there is relative movement between the machine tool 1 and the first linear material, so that the coarse scraping mechanism 42 scrapes off the slag on the surface of the continuous section that is greater than a first preset thickness, and the fine scraping mechanism 43 scrapes off the slag on the surface of the continuous section that is less than a second preset thickness.

[0080] Understandably, when the machine tool 1 and the first linear material move relative to each other, the slag removal drive mechanism 44 drives the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43 to rotate. This utilizes the longitudinal relative movement between the continuing section and the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43, as well as the circumferential relative movement between the continuing section and the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43, to remove the surface slag. Specifically, the coarse scraping mechanism 42 removes slag from the surface of the continuing section that is thicker than the first preset thickness, and the fine scraping mechanism 43 removes slag from the surface of the continuing section that is thinner than the second preset thickness. Thus, through the coarse and fine scraping of the surface of the continuing section, the slag after welding is effectively removed, thereby completing the high-quality continuation of the linear material.

[0081] It should be noted that the coarse scraping mechanism 42 is used to scrape off the weld slag on the surface of the joint section that is greater than the first preset thickness (coarse scraping), and the fine scraping mechanism 43 is used to scrape off the weld slag on the surface of the joint section that is less than the second preset thickness (fine scraping). The specific types of the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43 can be set according to actual needs, and there are no restrictions on them.

[0082] The slag scraping drive mechanism 44 is used to drive the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43 to rotate. The specific type of the slag scraping drive mechanism 44 can be set according to actual needs and there is no limitation on it.

[0083] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the slag scraping drive mechanism 44 includes: a slag scraping position main shaft 441 and a slag scraping position rotation drive assembly 442. The slag scraping position main shaft 441 is rotatably mounted on the slag scraping position support 41 and is arranged longitudinally. A coarse scraping mechanism 42 and a fine scraping mechanism 43 are spaced apart on the slag scraping position main shaft 441. The slag scraping position main shaft 441 has an upward-facing first slag scraping position opening for accommodating a connecting section. The slag scraping position rotation drive assembly 442 is mounted on the slag scraping position support 41, and its power output end is connected to the power input end of the slag scraping position main shaft 441. The slag scraping position rotation drive assembly 442 drives the slag scraping position main shaft 441 to rotate, thereby rotating the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43.

[0084] Understandably, since the scraping position spindle 441 is rotatably mounted on the scraping position support 41, and the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43 are spaced apart on the scraping position spindle 441, the power output end of the scraping position rotation drive assembly 442 is connected to the power input end of the scraping position spindle 441. This allows the scraping position rotation drive assembly 442 to drive the scraping position spindle 441 to rotate, thereby driving the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43 to rotate. Based on this, when the connecting section is located within the first scraping position opening of the scraping position spindle 441, the machine tool 1 and the first linear material move relative to each other. At the same time, the scraping position rotation drive assembly 442 drives the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43 to rotate, thereby causing the connecting section to move longitudinally and circumferentially relative to the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43 simultaneously, thus achieving effective scraping of the welding slag on the surface of the connecting section.

[0085] It should be noted that the specific type of the scraper spindle 441 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no restriction on it. For example, the scraper spindle 441 is a shaft structure, which is rotatably arranged on the scraper support 41 through multiple bearings.

[0086] The slag scraping position rotary drive assembly 442 is used to drive the slag scraping position main shaft 441 to rotate, thereby driving the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43 to rotate. The specific type of the slag scraping position rotary drive assembly 442 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto.

[0087] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the coarse scraping mechanism 42 includes a first wire-collecting ring 421 and a second wire-collecting ring 422. The first wire-collecting ring 421 is sleeved on the scraping position main shaft 441, and the second wire-collecting ring 422 is disposed on the scraping position support 41 and located on the side of the first wire-collecting ring 421 closer to the welding module 3. The second wire-collecting ring 422 and the first wire-collecting ring 421 are slidably connected along the circumference of the scraping position main shaft 441. The first wire-collecting ring 421 and the second wire-collecting ring 422 are respectively provided with a second scraping position opening in the same direction as the first scraping position opening.

[0088] It is understandable that, since the first wire gathering ring 421 is sleeved on the slag scraping position main shaft 441, and the second wire gathering ring 422 is set on the slag scraping position support 41 and located on the side of the first wire gathering ring 421 closer to the welding module 3, the second wire gathering ring 422 and the first wire gathering ring 421 are slidably connected along the circumferential direction of the slag scraping position main shaft 441, so that the connecting section can use the circumferentially fixed second wire gathering ring 422 and the circumferentially rotating first wire gathering ring 421 to achieve rough scraping of surface welding slag.

[0089] It should be noted that the first hub ring 421 and the second hub ring 422 are used to scrape off welding slag on the surface of the joint section that is larger than the first preset thickness. The specific types of the first hub ring 421 and the second hub ring 422 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited thereto. For example, the first hub ring 421 and the second hub ring 422 are both ring structures, which are sleeved on the main shaft 441 of the slag scraping position and are provided with a second slag scraping position opening in the same direction as the first slag scraping position opening, so as to allow the joint section to be moved in. The first hub ring 421 and the second hub ring 422 can be connected by multiple graphite rings and achieve circumferential sliding connection.

[0090] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the fine scraping mechanism 43 includes: a fine scraper seat 431, a scraping position clamping assembly 432, a scraper 433, and a scraping position advance and retreat drive assembly 434. The fine scraper seat 431 is sleeved on the scraper position main shaft 441, and the fine scraper seat 431 is provided with a third scraper position opening in the same direction as the first scraper position opening; the scraper position clamping assembly 432 is disposed on the fine scraper seat 431, and the clamping end of the scraper position clamping assembly 432 is located inside the first scraper position opening. The scraper position clamping assembly 432 is used to press or release the connecting section in the first scraper position opening along the radial direction of the scraper position main shaft 441; the scraper 433 is slidably disposed on the fine scraper seat 431 along the radial direction of the scraper position main shaft 441, and the power output end of the scraper position advance and retreat drive assembly 434 is connected to the power input end of the scraper 433. The scraper position advance and retreat drive assembly 434 is used to drive the scraper 433 to move along the radial direction of the scraper position main shaft 441, so that the scraper 433 approaches or moves away from the connecting section pressed by the scraper position clamping assembly 432.

[0091] Understandably, when the connecting segment moves into the opening of the first slag-scraping position, the slag-scraping position clamping assembly 432 presses the connecting segment against the opening of the first slag-scraping position along the radial direction of the slag-scraping position main shaft 441, thereby achieving a stable arrangement of the connecting segment within the opening of the first slag-scraping position. Furthermore, the slag-scraping position advance and retreat drive assembly 434 drives the scraper 433 to move radially along the slag-scraping position main shaft 441 and approach the connecting segment pressed against by the slag-scraping position clamping assembly 432, thereby using the scraper 433 to achieve fine scraping of the welding slag on the surface of the connecting segment.

[0092] It should be noted that the fine scraper seat 431 is used to support the scraping position clamping assembly 432, scraper 433, scraping position advance and retreat drive assembly 434, etc., and can realize the synchronous rotation of scraper 433 with scraping position main shaft 441. The specific type of fine scraper seat 431 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation thereto.

[0093] The slag-scraping clamping assembly 432 is used to clamp or release the connecting section in the first slag-scraping opening along the radial direction of the slag-scraping main shaft 441. When clamped, it can prevent the radial wobbling of the connecting section, thereby ensuring that the scraper 433 accurately scrapes the welding slag on the surface of the connecting section. The specific type of the slag-scraping clamping assembly 432 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto.

[0094] The slag removal drive assembly 434 is used to drive the scraper 433 to move radially along the scraper spindle 441, so that the scraper 433 moves closer to or away from the splice section clamped by the scraper clamping assembly 432. When the scraper 433 moves closer to the splice section, the relative movement (axial and circumferential) between the scraper 433 and the splice section can be used to remove the welding slag. In addition, during this process, the diameter of the splice section can also be adjusted by adjusting the radial position of the scraper 433. The specific type of the slag removal drive assembly 434 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto.

[0095] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the slag-scraping clamping assembly 432 includes: a slag-scraping clamping seat 4321, a clamping wheel 4322, and a slag-scraping clamping drive assembly 4323. The scraper clamping seat 4321 is slidably mounted on the fine scraper seat 431 along the radial direction of the scraper main shaft 441, and the clamping wheel 4322 is rotatably mounted on the scraper clamping seat 4321. The clamping wheel 4322 and the scraper 433 are located on the same side of the first scraper opening. The scraper clamping drive assembly 4323 is mounted on the fine scraper seat 431 and is located on both sides of the scraper main shaft 441, respectively, along with the scraper advance and retreat drive assembly 434. The power output end of the scraper clamping drive assembly 4323 is connected to the power input end of the scraper clamping seat 4321. The scraper clamping drive assembly 4323 is used to drive the scraper clamping seat 4321 to move radially along the scraper main shaft 441, so that the clamping wheel 4322 is pressed against or released from the connecting section in the first scraper opening.

[0096] It is understood that the scraper clamping seat 4321 is slidably mounted on the fine scraper seat 431 along the radial direction of the scraper main shaft 441, and the clamping wheel 4322 is rotatably mounted on the scraper clamping seat 4321. The power output end of the scraper clamping drive assembly 4323 is connected to the power input end of the scraper clamping seat 4321, so that the scraper clamping drive assembly 4323 can drive the scraper clamping seat 4321 to move radially along the scraper main shaft 441, thereby causing the clamping wheel 4322 to press against or release the connecting section in the first scraper opening, and then cooperate with the scraper 433 to realize the fine scraping operation of the connecting section.

[0097] The rotating arrangement of the clamping wheel 4322 allows for clamping of the continuous section while avoiding affecting the rotation of the scraper spindle 441 relative to the continuous section.

[0098] In addition, the slag-scraping position clamping drive assembly 4323 and the slag-scraping position forward and backward drive assembly 434 are located on both sides of the slag-scraping position main shaft 441, which can make reasonable use of the space on the fine scraper seat 431 and make the center of gravity of the fine scraper seat 431 as close as possible to the slag-scraping position main shaft 441, thereby ensuring the stable rotation of the slag-scraping position main shaft 441.

[0099] It should be noted that the slag-scraping position clamping seat 4321 is used to support the clamping wheel 4322, and under the drive of the slag-scraping position clamping drive assembly 4323, it drives the clamping wheel 4322 to move closer to or away from the connecting section. The specific types of the slag-scraping position clamping seat 4321 and the clamping wheel 4322 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation on this. For example, the slag-scraping position clamping seat 4321 is slidably set in the radial direction of the slag-scraping position main shaft 441 by means of the cooperation of the sliding sleeve and the sliding column, and the clamping wheel 4322 is rotatably set on the slag-scraping position clamping seat 4321 by means of the bearing, and the rotation center axis of the clamping wheel 4322 is located in the longitudinal direction.

[0100] The scraper clamping drive assembly 4323 is used to drive the scraper clamping seat 4321 to move radially along the scraper main shaft 441. The specific type of the scraper clamping drive assembly 4323 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto. For example, the scraper clamping drive assembly 4323 can be an integrated drive module composed of a motor and a reduction gear. At the same time, in order to adapt to the arrangement of the scraper clamping seat 4321 in the radial direction of the scraper main shaft 441, the integrated drive module of the motor and the reduction gear can use the transmission shaft on the outside of the scraper main shaft 441 to drive the scraper clamping seat 4321. Specifically, the gear sleeved on the transmission shaft and the gear sleeved on the lead screw mesh. At the same time, the lead screw and the scraper clamping seat 4321 are connected by threaded transmission. Based on this, the integrated drive module of the motor and the reduction gear drives the transmission shaft to rotate, thereby using the meshing gear to drive the lead screw to rotate, and thus driving the scraper clamping seat 4321 to move radially along the scraper main shaft 441.

[0101] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the slag scraping position rotation drive assembly 442 includes: a slag scraping position motor base 4421, a slag scraping position drive motor 4422, a first slag scraping position transmission wheel 4423, a second slag scraping position transmission wheel 4424, a first slag scraping position intermediate wheel 4425, a second slag scraping position intermediate wheel 4426, and a chain 4427 (not shown in the figure). The slag scraping position motor base 4421 is hinged to the bottom of the slag scraping position support base 41, and the slag scraping position drive motor 4422 is mounted on the slag scraping position motor base 4421. The first slag scraping position transmission wheel 4423 is sleeved on the slag scraping position main shaft 441 and has a fourth slag scraping position opening facing the same direction as the first slag scraping position opening. The second slag scraping position transmission wheel 4424 is sleeved on the output shaft of the slag scraping position drive motor 4422. The first slag scraping position intermediate wheel 4425 and the second slag scraping position intermediate wheel 4426 are respectively rotatably mounted on... The scraper position support 41 has the first scraper position intermediate wheel 4425 and the second scraper position intermediate wheel 4426 located on both sides of the first scraper position transmission wheel 4423, respectively; the chain 4427 passes around the second scraper position transmission wheel 4424, the first scraper position intermediate wheel 4425, the bottom of the first scraper position transmission wheel 4423 and the second scraper position intermediate wheel 4426 in sequence, and the scraper position drive motor 4422 is used to drive the first scraper position transmission wheel 4423 to rotate, so as to drive the scraper position main shaft 441 to rotate.

[0102] Understandably, because the chain 4427 sequentially passes around the bottom of the second scraper drive wheel 4424, the first scraper intermediate wheel 4425, the first scraper drive wheel 4423, and the second scraper intermediate wheel 4426, the scraper drive motor 4422 can use the chain 4427 to drive the first scraper drive wheel 4423 to rotate, thereby driving the scraper main shaft 441 to rotate. At the same time, by using this winding structure, the fourth scraper opening on the first scraper drive wheel 4423 can be avoided, thereby ensuring the smooth movement of the connecting section into and out of the first scraper opening on the scraper main shaft 441.

[0103] In addition, since the scraper motor seat 4421 is hinged to the bottom of the scraper support seat 41 and the scraper drive motor 4422 is mounted on the scraper motor seat 4421, the scraper motor seat 4421 and the scraper drive motor 4422 can use their own weight to tension the chain 4427 between the output shaft of the scraper drive motor 4422 and the scraper main shaft 441, thereby ensuring the stable drive of the scraper drive motor 4422 to the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43.

[0104] It should be noted that the first scraper drive wheel 4423, the second scraper drive wheel 4424, the first scraper intermediate wheel 4425, the second scraper intermediate wheel 4426, and the chain 4427 are used for transmission between the scraper drive motor 4422 and the scraper main shaft 441. The specific types of the first scraper drive wheel 4423, the second scraper drive wheel 4424, the first scraper intermediate wheel 4425, the second scraper intermediate wheel 4426, and the chain 4427 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no restriction on this.

[0105] The scraper motor seat 4421 is used to support the scraper drive motor 4422. The scraper drive motor 4422 is used to drive the scraper main shaft 441, and then drive the coarse scraping mechanism 42 and the fine scraping mechanism 43. The specific types of the scraper motor seat 4421 and the scraper drive motor 4422 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited. For example, one end of the scraper motor seat 4421 is hinged to the bottom of the scraper support seat 41. The scraper drive motor 4422 is arranged on the scraper support seat 41 and the angle of the scraper motor seat 4421 is flexibly positioned by the pulling of the chain 4427. At the same time, the other end of the scraper motor seat 4421 can be positioned and stored when stopped by a hinge bolt.

[0106] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the machine tool 1 includes: a base 11, a frame 12, a lifting mechanism 13, a follower clamping mechanism 14, and a longitudinal sliding mechanism 15. The welding module 3 and the slag scraping module 4 are respectively disposed on the frame 12 and spaced apart longitudinally. The longitudinal sliding mechanism 15 is disposed between the base 11 and the bearing surface, and the base 11 is slidably disposed on the bearing surface longitudinally via the longitudinal sliding mechanism 15. The lifting mechanism 13 is disposed between the frame 12 and the base 11, and is used to drive the frame 12 to rise to a first height. The follower clamping mechanism 14 is disposed on the frame 12, and is used to clamp a first linear material moving longitudinally when the frame 12 rises to the first height, so that the frame 12 and the first linear material are relatively stationary or move relative to each other longitudinally.

[0107] It is understandable that, since the longitudinal sliding mechanism 15 is disposed between the base 11 and the bearing surface, the base 11 can slide longitudinally on the bearing surface through the longitudinal sliding mechanism 15. Since the lifting mechanism 13 is disposed between the frame 12 and the base 11, the frame 12 can be lifted and lowered on the base 11 by means of the lifting mechanism 13. Since the follower clamping mechanism 14 is disposed on the frame 12, the follower clamping mechanism 14 can be lifted and lowered synchronously with the frame 12 and can perform clamping actions.

[0108] Specifically, when the lifting mechanism 13 drives the frame 12 to rise to the first height, the follow-up clamping mechanism 14 clamps the first linear material moving longitudinally, thereby making the frame 12 and the first linear material relatively stationary or moving relative to each other in the longitudinal direction based on the longitudinal sliding mechanism 15, which facilitates the automatic continuation of the linear material in conjunction with the welding module 3 and the slag scraping module 4 on the frame 12.

[0109] It should be noted that the frame 12 is used to support the welding module 3, slag scraping module 4, etc. of the automatic splicing machine, and the base 11 is used to support the frame 12. The specific types of the base 11 and the frame 12 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited thereto. For example, the frame 12 is composed of multiple horizontal beams, multiple vertical beams and multiple vertical beams, and the base 11 is composed of multiple horizontal beams and multiple vertical beams. The frame 12 is located above the base 11. When the frame 12 rises to the first height, it can realize the clamping and processing of the first and second linear materials by the welding module 3 and the slag scraping module 4. When the frame 12 falls to the second height, it can move away from the linear materials to avoid affecting the subsequent operations of the linear materials.

[0110] The lifting mechanism 13 is used to drive the lifting of the frame 12, so that the frame 12 rises to a first height, or falls to a second height, or even falls to a third height, to lift the longitudinal sliding mechanism 15. The specific type of the lifting mechanism 13 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto.

[0111] The follower position clamping mechanism 14 is used to clamp the first linear material moving longitudinally when the frame 12 rises to the first height. The specific type of the follower position clamping mechanism 14 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto.

[0112] The longitudinal sliding mechanism 15 is used for the longitudinal sliding of the base 11 on the bearing surface. The specific type of the longitudinal sliding mechanism 15 can be set according to actual needs and there is no limitation thereto.

[0113] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 13 includes a lifting drive assembly 131 and a plurality of telescopic transmission assemblies 132. The telescopic transmission assemblies 132 are disposed between the frame 12 and the base 11, and the plurality of telescopic transmission assemblies 132 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the frame 12. The power output end of the lifting drive assembly 131 is connected to the power input end of the plurality of telescopic transmission assemblies 132, and the lifting drive assembly 131 is used to drive the plurality of telescopic transmission assemblies 132 to extend and retract synchronously, thereby driving the frame 12 to rise to a first height or descend to a second height.

[0114] Understandably, since the telescopic transmission assembly 132 is located between the frame 12 and the base 11, and the power output end of the lifting drive assembly 131 is connected to the power input end of multiple telescopic transmission assemblies 132 respectively, the lifting drive assembly 131 can drive multiple telescopic transmission assemblies 132 to extend and retract synchronously, thereby driving the frame 12 to rise and fall. Specifically, under the drive of the lifting drive assembly 131, the frame 12 rises to a first height so that the welding module 3 and the slag scraping module 4 of the automatic splicing machine can perform splicing processing on the linear material, or falls to a second height so as to avoid the automatic splicing machine from affecting the subsequent operation of the linear material.

[0115] It should be noted that the lifting drive assembly 131 is used to drive the telescopic transmission assembly 132 to extend and retract. The specific type of the lifting drive assembly 131 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto. For example, the lifting drive assembly 131 can be an integrated drive module composed of a motor and a reduction gear.

[0116] The telescopic transmission assembly 132 is used to convert the rotational motion of the power output end of the lifting drive assembly 131 into telescopic motion. The specific type of the telescopic transmission assembly 132 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto.

[0117] In some embodiments, the telescopic transmission assembly 132 includes an inner rod, an outer cylinder, a worm gear, and a worm. The inner rod is mounted on the base 11, the outer cylinder is rotatably mounted on the frame 12 and threaded onto the inner rod, the worm gear is mounted on the outer cylinder, and the worm is rotatably mounted on the frame 12, with the worm gear and worm meshing. The power output end of the lifting drive assembly 131 is connected to the power input end of the worm, and the lifting drive assembly 131 drives the worm to rotate, thereby causing the outer cylinder to rotate and rise relative to the inner rod.

[0118] Understandably, since the inner rod is mounted on the base 11 and the outer cylinder is rotatably mounted on the frame 12, with the outer cylinder threaded onto the inner rod, the outer cylinder can be raised and lowered by utilizing the threaded structure on the inner rod when it rotates. Furthermore, since the worm gear is mounted on the outer cylinder and the worm is rotatably mounted on the frame 12, with the worm gear and worm meshing, the rotation of the worm can drive the turbine to rotate, thereby driving the outer cylinder to rotate. Simultaneously, since the power output end of the lifting drive assembly 131 is connected to the power input end of the worm, the lifting drive assembly 131 can drive the worm to rotate. Therefore, driven by the lifting drive assembly 131, the frame 12 can be raised and lowered on the base 11 by utilizing the cooperation of the inner rod, outer cylinder, worm gear, and worm.

[0119] It should be noted that the inner rod and outer cylinder are used to cooperate to convert rotational motion into lifting motion. The specific types of the inner rod and outer cylinder can be set according to actual needs and there are no restrictions. For example, the inner rod is a rod-shaped structure and is arranged vertically on the base 11. The outer cylinder is rotatably mounted on the frame 12 using bearings and is arranged vertically. The outer cylinder is threaded onto the inner rod so that the inner cylinder can be lifted and lowered while rotating.

[0120] The worm gear and worm are used to change the direction of rotation. The specific type of worm gear and worm can be set according to actual needs and there is no restriction. For example, the worm gear is sleeved on the outer cylinder with its central axis in the vertical direction, and the worm is rotated on the frame 12 with its central axis in the horizontal direction.

[0121] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the plurality of telescopic transmission components 132 include: a first telescopic transmission component 132, a second telescopic transmission component 132, a third telescopic transmission component 132, and a fourth telescopic transmission component 132. The first, second, third, and fourth telescopic transmission components 132 are respectively disposed between the frame 12 and the base 11, and the first and second telescopic transmission components 132, as well as the third and fourth telescopic transmission components 132, are distributed laterally at intervals. The moving component 132, the second telescopic transmission component 132, and the fourth telescopic transmission component 132 are respectively distributed longitudinally at intervals; the lifting mechanism 13 also includes: a first transfer transmission box 133, a second transfer transmission box 134, and a third transfer transmission box 135. The second transfer transmission box 134, the first transfer transmission box 133, and the third transfer transmission box 135 are respectively arranged on the frame 12 and distributed laterally at intervals. The second transfer transmission box 134 is located between the first telescopic transmission component 132 and the second telescopic transmission component 132, and the third transfer transmission box 135 is located between the third telescopic transmission component 132 and the fourth telescopic transmission component 132.

[0122] The lifting drive assembly 131 has its power output end connected to the power input end of the first transfer transmission box 133, and the first power output end of the first transfer transmission box 133 is connected to the power input end of the second transfer transmission box 134. The second power output end of the first transfer transmission box 133 is connected to the power input end of the third transfer transmission box 135. The first power output end of the second transfer transmission box 134 is connected to the power input end of the first telescopic transmission assembly 132, and the second power output end of the second transfer transmission box 134 is connected to the power input end of the second telescopic transmission assembly 132. The first power output end of the third transfer transmission box 135 is connected to the power input end of the third telescopic transmission assembly 132, and the second power output end of the third transfer transmission box 135 is connected to the power input end of the fourth telescopic transmission assembly 132.

[0123] Understandably, since the power output end of the lifting drive assembly 131 is connected to the power input end of the first transfer transmission box 133, and the first power output end of the first transfer transmission box 133 is connected to the power input end of the second transfer transmission box 134, and the first power output end of the second transfer transmission box 134 is connected to the power input end of the first telescopic transmission assembly 132, and the second power output end of the second transfer transmission box 134 is connected to the power input end of the second telescopic transmission assembly 132, the lifting drive assembly 131 can use the first transfer transmission box 133 and the second transfer transmission box 134 to drive the first telescopic transmission assembly 132 and the second telescopic transmission assembly 132 to extend and retract.

[0124] Since the power output end of the lifting drive assembly 131 is connected to the power input end of the first transfer transmission box 133, and the second power output end of the first transfer transmission box 133 is connected to the power input end of the third transfer transmission box 135, the first power output end of the third transfer transmission box 135 is connected to the power input end of the third telescopic transmission assembly 132, and the second power output end of the third transfer transmission box 135 is connected to the power input end of the fourth telescopic transmission assembly 132, the lifting drive assembly 131 can use the first transfer transmission box 133 and the third transfer transmission box 135 to drive the third telescopic transmission assembly 132 and the fourth telescopic transmission assembly 132 to extend and retract.

[0125] Therefore, under the drive of the lifting drive assembly 131, and with the cooperation of the first transfer transmission box 133, the second transfer transmission box 134 and the third transfer transmission box 135, the synchronous extension and retraction of the first telescopic transmission assembly 132, the second telescopic transmission assembly 132, the third telescopic transmission assembly 132 and the fourth telescopic transmission assembly 132 can be realized, thereby achieving stable lifting and lowering of the frame 12.

[0126] It should be noted that the first telescopic transmission assembly 132, the second telescopic transmission assembly 132, the third telescopic transmission assembly 132, and the fourth telescopic transmission assembly 132 are all telescopic transmission assemblies 132 including an inner rod, an outer cylinder, a worm gear, and a worm. The first transfer transmission box 133, the second transfer transmission box 134, and the third transfer transmission box 135 are used for transmission between the lifting drive assembly 131 and each telescopic transmission assembly 132. The specific types of the first transfer transmission box 133, the second transfer transmission box 134, and the third transfer transmission box 135 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited thereto. For example, the first transfer transmission box 133, the second transfer transmission box 134, and the third transfer transmission box 135 can be rotational steering mechanisms with multiple bevel gears to convert the power output direction of the lifting drive assembly 131 to the power input direction required by each telescopic transmission assembly 132.

[0127] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the follower clamping mechanism 14 includes: a follower clamping seat 141, a first follower clamping component 142, a second follower clamping component 143, and a follower clamping drive component 144. The follower clamping seat 141 is disposed on the frame 12, and the first follower clamping component 142 and the second follower clamping component 143 are respectively slidably disposed laterally on the follower clamping seat 141, with the first follower clamping component 142 and the second follower clamping component 143 arranged opposite to each other. The follower clamping drive component 144 is disposed on the follower clamping seat 141, and is used to drive the first follower clamping component 142 and the second follower clamping component 143 to move laterally relative to each other to clamp a first linear material, and to drive the first follower clamping component 142 and the second follower clamping component 143 to move laterally opposite to each other to release the first linear material.

[0128] It is understandable that when the first linear material is located between the first follower clamping component 142 and the second follower clamping component 143, the follower clamping drive component 144 drives the first follower clamping component 142 and the second follower clamping component 143 to move laterally relative to each other, thereby using the first follower clamping component 142 and the second follower clamping component 143 to clamp the first linear material, and then cooperate with the welding module 3 and the slag scraping module 4 to achieve high-efficiency and high-quality splicing of the linear material.

[0129] It should be noted that the first follower position clamping component 142 and the second follower position clamping component 143 are used to move relative to or away from each other under the drive of the follower position clamping drive component 144, so as to realize the clamping and release of the first linear material. The specific types of the first follower position clamping component 142 and the second follower position clamping component 143 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation thereto.

[0130] The follower position clamping drive component 144 is used to drive the relative or opposite movement of the first follower position clamping component 142 and the second follower position clamping component 143. The specific type of the follower position clamping drive component 144 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto.

[0131] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the second follower-position clamping assembly 143 includes: a follower-position driven clamping seat 1431, a driving wheel 1432, and a clamping drive assembly 1433. The follower-position driven clamping seat 1431 is slidably disposed on the follower-position clamping seat 1431 in a lateral direction, and the driving wheel 1432 is rotatably disposed on the follower-position driven clamping seat 1431. The power output end of the clamping drive assembly 1433 is connected to the power input end of the driving wheel 1432; the first follower-position clamping assembly... 142 includes: a follower active clamping seat 1421 and a driven wheel 1422. The follower active clamping seat 1421 is slidably disposed on the follower clamping seat 141 in a transverse direction, and the driven wheel 1422 is rotatably disposed on the follower active clamping seat 1421 and is disposed opposite to the active wheel 1432. The power output end of the follower clamping drive assembly 144 is connected to the power input end of the follower active clamping seat 1421 and the power input end of the follower driven clamping seat 1431, respectively.

[0132] The follower position clamping drive assembly 144 is used to drive the follower position active clamping seat 1421 and the follower position driven clamping seat 1431 to move laterally relative to each other or opposite to each other, so that the active wheel 1432 and the driven wheel 1422 clamp or release the first linear material. The clamping drive assembly 1433 is used to drive the active wheel 1432 to rotate when the active wheel 1432 and the driven wheel 1422 clamp the first linear material, so that the frame 12 moves longitudinally relative to the first linear material.

[0133] It is understandable that, since the follower-position driven clamping seat 1431 is slidably disposed on the follower-position clamping seat 141 in the lateral direction, and the follower-position active clamping seat 1421 is slidably disposed on the follower-position clamping seat 141 in the lateral direction, the power output end of the follower-position clamping drive assembly 144 is connected to the power input end of the follower-position active clamping seat 1421 and the power input end of the follower-position driven clamping seat 1431 respectively, so that the follower-position clamping drive assembly 144 can drive the follower-position active clamping seat 1421 and the follower-position driven clamping seat 1431 to move relative to each other or move away from each other in the lateral direction.

[0134] Furthermore, since the drive wheel 1432 is rotatably mounted on the follower position driven clamping seat 1431, and the driven wheel 1422 is rotatably mounted on the follower position active clamping seat 1421 and is arranged opposite to the drive wheel 1432, when the follower position active clamping seat 1421 and the follower position driven clamping seat 1431 move laterally relative to each other, the drive wheel 1432 and the driven wheel 1422 can clamp the first linear material, and when the follower position active clamping seat 1421 and the follower position driven clamping seat 1431 move laterally opposite to each other, the drive wheel 1432 and the driven wheel 1422 can release the first linear material.

[0135] Meanwhile, since the power output end of the clamping drive assembly 1433 is connected to the power input end of the drive wheel 1432, when the drive wheel 1432 and the driven wheel 1422 clamp the first linear material, the clamping drive assembly 1433 can drive the drive wheel 1432 to rotate, thereby causing the frame 12 to move longitudinally relative to the first linear material, and thus cooperate with the welding module 3 and the slag scraping module 4 to realize the automatic continuation of the linear material.

[0136] It should be noted that the follower position driven clamping seat 1431 is used to support the driving wheel 1432 and the clamping drive assembly 1433, and the follower position active clamping seat 1421 is used to support the driven wheel 1422. Furthermore, the follower position driven clamping seat 1431 and the follower position active clamping seat 1421 move relative to or away from each other under the drive of the follower position clamping drive assembly 144, thereby driving the driving wheel 1432 and the driven wheel 1422 to clamp or release the first linear material. The specific types of the follower position driven clamping seat 1431 and the follower position active clamping seat 1421 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited thereto. For example, the follower position driven clamping seat 1431 and the follower position active clamping seat 1421 are respectively seat structures, which are slidably set on the follower position clamping seat 141 by the cooperation of the rail groove and the guide rail.

[0137] The driving wheel 1432 and the driven wheel 1422 are used to clamp or release the first linear material. When the driving wheel 1432 and the driven wheel 1422 clamp the first linear material, the relative stationary position or relative movement between the frame 12 and the first linear material is achieved by driving the clamping drive assembly 1433. The specific types of the driving wheel 1432 and the driven wheel 1422 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited thereto.

[0138] The clamping drive assembly 1433 is used to drive the drive wheel 1432 to rotate or remain stationary, so as to achieve relative stationary or relative movement between the frame 12 and the first linear material. The specific type of the clamping drive assembly 1433 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto. For example, the clamping drive assembly 1433 can be an integrated drive module consisting of a motor and a reduction gear.

[0139] like Figure 8As shown, in some embodiments, the follower position clamping drive assembly 144 includes: a follower position gear 1441, a first follower position rack 1442, a second follower position rack 1443, and a follower position telescopic member 1444.

[0140] The follower gear 1441 is rotatably mounted on the follower clamping seat 141, and the first follower rack 1442 and the second follower rack 1443 are respectively slidably mounted on the follower clamping seat 141 in the lateral direction and respectively mesh with the two sides of the follower gear 1441.

[0141] The first follower rack 1442 is disposed between the power output end of the follower telescopic member 1444 and the follower active clamping seat 1421, and the second follower rack 1443 is connected to the follower driven clamping seat 1431. The follower telescopic member 1444 is used to drive the first follower rack 1442 to move laterally, so as to drive the follower active clamping seat 1421 and the follower driven clamping seat 1431 to move laterally relative to each other or opposite to each other.

[0142] It is understandable that, since the follower gear 1441 is rotatably mounted on the follower clamping seat 141, and the first follower rack 1442 and the second follower rack 1443 are respectively slidably mounted on the follower clamping seat 141 in the lateral direction and respectively mesh with the two sides of the follower gear 1441, when the first follower rack 1442 moves in the lateral direction, the second follower rack 1443 can be moved synchronously in the opposite direction by the transmission between the first follower rack 1442 and the second follower rack 1443 using the follower gear 1441.

[0143] Furthermore, since the first follower rack 1442 is disposed between the power output end of the follower telescopic member 1444 and the follower active clamping seat 1421, and the second follower rack 1443 is connected to the follower driven clamping seat 1431, when the power output end of the follower telescopic member 1444 extends or retracts, it can drive the first follower rack 1442 and the second follower rack 1443 to move synchronously in opposite directions in the lateral direction, thereby driving the follower active clamping seat 1421 and the follower driven clamping seat 1431 to move relative to each other or back to back in the lateral direction, thereby realizing the clamping and release of the first linear material.

[0144] It should be noted that the follower gear 1441 is used for the linkage between the first follower rack 1442 and the second follower rack 1443, that is, to make the first follower rack 1442 and the second follower rack 1443 move synchronously in opposite directions. The specific type of the follower gear 1441 can be set according to actual needs and there is no limitation. For example, the follower gear 1441 is a gear structure and is rotatably arranged on the follower clamping seat 141 using a bearing, wherein the rotation center axis of the bearing is located in the longitudinal direction.

[0145] The first follower rack 1442 and the second follower rack 1443 are used to cooperate with the follower gear 1441 to realize the linkage between the follower active clamping seat 1421 and the follower driven clamping seat 1431, so as to realize the synchronous action of the follower active clamping seat 1421 and the follower driven clamping seat 1431 by utilizing the extension and retraction of the same follower telescopic member 1444, thereby achieving stable clamping of the first linear material.

[0146] The follower telescopic component 1444 is used to directly drive the first follower rack 1442 and indirectly drive the second follower rack 1443, thereby realizing the synchronous action of the follower active clamping seat 1421 and the follower driven clamping seat 1431. The specific type of the follower telescopic component 1444 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto. For example, the follower telescopic component 1444 can be a thin hydraulic cylinder with the push rod extending and retracting laterally.

[0147] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the machine tool 1 further includes a transverse translation mechanism 16, which is disposed between the frame 12 and the bearing surface. The lifting mechanism 13 is also used to drive the frame 12 down to a third height, so that the base 11 is moved away from the bearing surface, and the frame 12 moves laterally on the bearing surface via the transverse translation mechanism 16.

[0148] It is understandable that, since the transverse translation mechanism 16 is set between the frame 12 and the bearing surface, the frame 12 as a whole can move laterally on the bearing surface using the transverse translation mechanism 16. Specifically, the lifting mechanism 13 drives the frame 12 to descend to the third height so that the base 11 is away from the bearing surface and the frame 12 is supported on the bearing surface by the transverse translation mechanism 16. Thus, the frame 12 moves laterally on the bearing surface using the transverse translation mechanism 16, thereby satisfying the transfer and switching of the automatic splicing machine between different production lines.

[0149] It should be noted that the transverse translation mechanism 16 is used in conjunction with the lifting mechanism 13 to achieve the overall transverse movement of the machine tool 1. The specific type of the transverse translation mechanism 16 can be set according to actual needs, and there are no restrictions on it.

[0150] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the longitudinal sliding mechanism 15 includes: at least one longitudinal guide rail 151, which is longitudinally disposed on the bearing surface, and the base 11 is longitudinally slidably disposed on the longitudinal guide rail 151; the transverse translation mechanism 16 includes: at least one transverse guide rail 161, which is transversely disposed on the bearing surface, the longitudinal guide rail 151 and the transverse guide rail 161 are intersecting, and an intersection notch is provided at the intersection of the longitudinal guide rail 151 and the transverse guide rail 161, wherein, when the frame 12 descends At the third height, the base 11 is away from the longitudinal guide rail 151, and the frame 12 is slidably mounted on the transverse guide rail 161; the machine tool 1 also includes: a reversing mechanism 17, which includes: a reversing guide rail 171 and a reversing drive assembly 172. The reversing guide rail 171 is disposed in the cross notch, and the power output end of the reversing drive assembly 172 is connected to the power input end of the reversing guide rail 171. The reversing drive assembly 172 is used to drive the reversing guide rail 171 to rotate, so that the reversing guide rail 171 is arranged longitudinally or transversely.

[0151] It is understandable that, since the longitudinal guide rail 151 is arranged longitudinally on the bearing surface and the base 11 is slidably arranged on the longitudinal guide rail 151, when the lifting mechanism 13 has not been lowered to the third height, the base 11 can be slidably arranged on the bearing surface through the longitudinal guide rail 151, thereby facilitating the follow-up of the machine tool 1 to the linear material.

[0152] Based on the transverse guide rail 161 being arranged transversely on the bearing surface, when the frame 12 descends to the third height, the base 11 moves away from the longitudinal guide rail 151, and the frame 12 is slidably arranged on the transverse guide rail 161. Thus, the frame 12 can be slidably arranged transversely on the bearing surface via the transverse guide rail 161, thereby facilitating the transverse transfer of the machine tool 1.

[0153] In addition, since there is a cross gap at the intersection of the longitudinal guide rail 151 and the transverse guide rail 161, and the reversing guide rail 171 is located in the cross gap, the power output end of the reversing drive assembly 172 is connected to the power input end of the reversing guide rail 171, so that the reversing drive assembly 172 can drive the reversing guide rail 171 to rotate, so that the reversing guide rail 171 is arranged longitudinally or transversely, thereby meeting the movement requirements of the machine tool 1 in different directions.

[0154] Specifically, when the lifting mechanism 13 has not descended to the third height, the reversing drive assembly 172 drives the reversing guide rail 171 to rotate so that the reversing guide rail 171 is arranged longitudinally. At this time, the base 11 can be slidably mounted on the bearing surface in the longitudinal direction through the longitudinal guide rail 151, and the longitudinally arranged reversing guide rail 171 ensures the stable longitudinal movement of the machine tool 1 at the cross gap.

[0155] When the lifting mechanism 13 descends to the third height, the reversing drive assembly 172 drives the reversing guide rail 171 to rotate so that the reversing guide rail 171 is arranged laterally. At this time, the base 11 can be slidably mounted on the bearing surface through the transverse guide rail 161, and the transversely arranged reversing guide rail 171 ensures the stable transverse movement of the machine tool 1 at the intersection gap.

[0156] It should be noted that the longitudinal guide rail 151 and the transverse guide rail 161 are used for the longitudinal and transverse movement of the machine tool 1. The specific types of the longitudinal guide rail 151 and the transverse guide rail 161 can be set according to actual needs and there is no restriction. For example, two longitudinal guide rails 151 and two transverse guide rails 161 are used. The longitudinal guide rail 151 and the transverse guide rail 161 form a grid-shaped guide rail structure. The intersection of the grid is the intersection gap, which is used to reduce the vertical space occupied by the machine tool 1.

[0157] The reversing guide rail 171 is used to rotate under the drive of the reversing drive assembly 172 to fill the gap at the intersection of the longitudinal guide rail 151 and the transverse guide rail 161. The specific types of the reversing guide rail 171 and the reversing drive assembly 172 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited thereto. For example, the reversing guide rail 171 has the same structure as the longitudinal guide rail 151 and the transverse guide rail 161 respectively to ensure a smooth transition at the intersection. The reversing drive assembly 172 can be an integrated drive module composed of a thin hydraulic cylinder and a gear box. The gears and shafts in the gear box cooperate to realize the output direction of the thin hydraulic cylinder, for example, from the horizontal direction to the vertical direction.

[0158] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the longitudinal sliding mechanism 15 further includes at least one longitudinal roller 152, which is rotatably mounted on the base 11 and rollably mounted on the longitudinal guide rail 151; the transverse translation mechanism 16 further includes at least one transverse roller 162 and at least one translation drive assembly 163, wherein the transverse roller 162 is rotatably mounted on the frame 12, and the power output end of the translation drive assembly 163 is connected to the power input end of the transverse roller 162. When the frame 12 descends to the third height, the transverse roller 162 rolls on the transverse guide rail 161, and the translation drive assembly 163 drives the transverse roller 162 to rotate, thereby causing the frame 12 to move laterally on the bearing surface.

[0159] It is understandable that, since the longitudinal roller 152 is rotatably mounted on the base 11 and the longitudinal roller 152 is rolled on the longitudinal guide rail 151, when the lifting mechanism 13 has not descended to the third height, the base 11 can achieve longitudinal sliding arrangement on the bearing surface through the cooperation of the longitudinal roller 152 and the longitudinal guide rail 151.

[0160] Based on the rotatable horizontal roller 162 mounted on the frame 12, when the frame 12 descends to the third height, the horizontal roller 162 is rolled on the horizontal guide rail 161, and the translation drive assembly 163 drives the horizontal roller 162 to rotate, thereby causing the frame 12 to move laterally on the bearing surface, thus meeting the line switching requirements.

[0161] In some embodiments, the longitudinal guide rail 151 is a planar guide rail, and the longitudinal roller 152 corresponding to the longitudinal guide rail 151 is a planar roller; or, the longitudinal guide rail 151 is a protruding guide rail, and the longitudinal roller 152 corresponding to the longitudinal guide rail 151 is a concave roller.

[0162] For example, of the two longitudinal guide rails 151, one longitudinal guide rail 151 is a planar guide rail, while the other longitudinal guide rail 151 is a protruding guide rail (triangular protrusion).

[0163] In some embodiments, the transverse guide rail 161 is a planar guide rail, and the transverse roller 162 corresponding to the transverse guide rail 161 is a planar roller; or, the transverse guide rail 161 is a protruding guide rail, and the transverse roller 162 corresponding to the transverse guide rail 161 is a concave roller.

[0164] For example, of the two transverse guides 161, one transverse guide 161 is a planar guide, while the other transverse guide 161 is a convex guide.
