Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of equipment processing technology, and more specifically to a clamping and welding device for processing power distribution cabinets. Background Technology
[0002] As a core supporting equipment in the power system, the machining accuracy of the distribution cabinet shell directly affects the installation stability and power safety of electrical components, and the clamping and positioning in the welding process is the key link that determines the shell accuracy. With the development of the power industry, distribution cabinets are developing towards multiple specifications and high strength, which puts forward higher requirements for the adaptability and stability of welding clamping devices.
[0003] Existing welding clamping devices for distribution cabinets have several significant drawbacks: First, the clamping methods are limited, often employing single- or double-sided rigid clamping without adequate internal support. This makes the casing prone to warping and deformation during welding due to uneven stress, especially for thin-walled cabinets, where the deformation rate can exceed 15%, significantly increasing processing costs during subsequent correction. Second, the coordination between internal and external mechanisms is poor. The external clamping and internal support are often driven independently, requiring repeated manual adjustments and positioning. This is not only cumbersome but also prone to positioning errors, leading to misaligned joints and a welding pass rate of less than 85%. Third, the compatibility is narrow. Most devices are designed only for cabinets of fixed specifications. Changing the processing model requires disassembling and replacing the clamping components, with adjustment times reaching 1-2 hours, making it difficult to meet the needs of mass production. Fourth, the limiting structure is inadequate, causing the cabinet to tilt or slide during clamping, resulting in poor molten pool stability during welding and defects such as porosity and slag inclusions.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, there is an urgent need to develop a welding clamping device that can achieve synchronous internal and external clamping, precise positioning, and strong adaptability, in order to improve the processing efficiency and quality of power distribution cabinets and reduce production costs.

[0010] Furthermore, the linkage mechanism consists of a gear plate, a rack, a fixing block, and a limiting hole. The bottom of the gear plate is movably connected to a rotating shaft.

[0011] Furthermore, the inner support mechanism is composed of a turntable, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to a gear plate. The turntable has four centrally symmetrical arc-shaped grooves inside. A cross-shaped block is movably connected to the upper part of the turntable. The cross-shaped block has T-shaped grooves both horizontally and vertically inside.

Each L-shaped support slider has a second limiting post at its bottom, and each second limiting post is located in an arc-shaped groove.
[0012] The technical effects and advantages of this invention are as follows: 1. This invention fundamentally solves the industry problem of shell shaking and deformation during welding by using a synergistic structure of "symmetrical external clamping + four-way internal support," providing core assurance for high-precision welding. Regarding external fixation, when the drive device moves the active clamping component, the driven clamping component moves synchronously towards the center through the gear and rack transmission of the linkage mechanism, forming a symmetrical clamping force and avoiding shell displacement caused by traditional single-sided clamping. Simultaneously, the longitudinal box-shaped placement block on the lower surface of the clamping plate is embedded into the bottom edge of the shell, achieving both horizontal limiting and longitudinal support to prevent the bottom of the shell from denting and deforming due to the high temperature of welding.
[0013] The inner support mechanism starts synchronously with the outer clamping mechanism. The rotation of the gear disc drives the turntable to rotate. The arc-shaped groove pushes the mounting slider and the L-shaped support slider outward along the T-shaped groove of the cross-shaped block through the limiting post. It presses against the inner wall of the shell from four directions: front, back, left, and right, forming a balanced force state of "outer clamping and inner support", effectively resisting shell warping caused by welding stress. The limiting block of the auxiliary mechanism is embedded in the slide rail of the clamping assembly. Through the cooperation of lateral and oblique guides, it ensures that the clamping plate is always perpendicular to the processing table, further ensuring the verticality of the shell sidewall and keeping the weld straightness error within a very small range.
[0014] 2. This invention achieves synchronized action of multiple mechanisms through mechanical linkage, significantly simplifying the operation process and improving processing efficiency. Traditional devices require separate control of the outer clamping and inner support mechanisms, which is cumbersome and prone to asynchronous operation. In this invention, the extension of the telescopic cylinder piston rod sequentially drives the active clamping component to move, the linkage mechanism to drive, the driven clamping component to close, and the inner support mechanism to expand. The entire fixing process requires no manual intervention and can be completed with a single button start. The fixing time of a single housing is reduced by more than 60% compared to the traditional method.
[0015] After welding is completed, the retraction of the telescopic cylinder piston rod resets each mechanism via reverse linkage. The outer clamping assembly separates, and the inner support mechanism retracts, allowing operators to directly remove the workpiece, avoiding the hassle of resetting multiple mechanisms individually in traditional devices. Furthermore, compared to multi-power source designs, the mechanical linkage structure has a lower failure rate and faster response speed, reducing equipment downtime for maintenance and further enhancing the continuous operation capability of the production line.
[0016] 3. This invention, through modular and adaptive design, possesses strong adaptability while reducing the cost of equipment use and maintenance. Regarding size adaptation, the sliding stroke of the outer clamping component along the slide bar can be adjusted via the stroke of the telescopic cylinder, and the expansion range of the slider of the inner support mechanism is determined by the arc-shaped groove profile, meeting different size requirements from small distribution boxes to medium-sized distribution cabinets without the need to replace special clamps, significantly reducing the enterprise's clamping investment costs. Regarding material adaptation, the "outer clamp, inner support" force mode can achieve adaptive clamping based on the rigidity differences of the shell material through elastic contact of the mechanical structure, avoiding shell damage due to excessive rigidity or instability due to insufficient rigidity. Regarding maintenance costs, a single power source reduces the maintenance needs of complex systems such as hydraulics and electrical control. All components adopt standardized structures, and easily damaged parts such as slide bars and hinges are convenient to procure and replace, reducing long-term maintenance costs.

[0034] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 The inner support mechanism 6 is composed of a turntable 601. The bottom of the turntable 601 is fixedly connected to the gear plate 501. The interior of the turntable 601 has four centrally symmetrical arc-shaped grooves 6011. The upper part of the turntable 601 is movably connected to a cross-shaped block 602.

Each L-shaped support slider 606 has a second limiting post 6061 at its bottom. Each second limiting post 6061 is located in the arc-shaped groove 6011.
[0035] Working principle of the invention: When the device is not started, all mechanisms are in a "reset state": the active clamping component 406 and the driven clamping component 407 of the outer clamping mechanism 4 are at their maximum distance and are distributed in the rectangular slots 102 on the left and right sides of the processing table 1; the inner support plate 604 and the L-shaped support slider 606 of the inner support mechanism 6 are retracted in the center of the cross-shaped slot 101 and do not expand outward; the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 305 of the drive device 3 is in a retracted state, and the gear plate 501 and the rack 502 of the linkage mechanism 5 have no relative movement; the limiting block 207 of the auxiliary mechanism 2 is located at the initial end of the first limiting slide rail 4066 and the second limiting slide rail 4076 on the back of the clamping component and no limiting force is applied.
[0036] At this point, the operator can place the distribution cabinet housing to be welded (usually a rectangular frame or side panel assembly) in the center of the processing table 1, with the bottom edge of the housing aligned with the junction of the cross-shaped groove 101 and the rectangular groove 102, ensuring that the bottom of the housing fits snugly against the table surface.
[0037] When the equipment is started, the drive unit 3, as the sole power source, begins to work: the telescopic cylinder 305 receives a signal, the piston rod extends outward, and pushes the front end of the sliding groove connecting shaft 306 to slide along the square sliding groove 302 at the bottom of the support plate 301; the sliding groove connecting shaft 306 is connected to the cylinder mounting support 4067 of the active clamping assembly 406 through a hinge structure, so the thrust of the piston rod is directly transmitted to the active clamping assembly 406, forcing the active clamping assembly 406 to move along the slide rod 404 toward the center of the processing table 1; the slide rod 404 is fixed on the clamping support 403 to ensure that the movement trajectory is a straight line.
[0038] The movement of the active clamping component 406 triggers the outer clamping action, and at the same time, the driven clamping component 407 moves synchronously through the linkage mechanism 5: The active clamping component 406 moves as follows: the first slide plate 4061 slides along the slide bar 404 toward the center, which drives the first mounting column 4062 and the first support frame 4063 above to move synchronously, and finally makes the first outer clamping plate 4064 gradually approach one side of the outer wall of the distribution cabinet housing; the first longitudinal box placement block 4065 on the lower surface of the clamping plate is embedded in the gap at the bottom edge of the housing, which not only prevents the housing from sliding, but also prevents the bottom of the housing from deforming through longitudinal support. The inner side of the first mounting post 4062 of the active clamping assembly 406 is connected to the fixing block 503 of the linkage mechanism 5. When the active assembly moves, the fixing block 503 drives the rack 502 connected to it to move towards the gear disk 501. The rack 502 meshes with the gear disk 501, and the linear motion of the rack 502 is converted into the rotational motion of the gear disk 501. The rotation of the gear disk 501 drives the rack 502 on the other side to move in the opposite direction. The rack 502 is connected to the second mounting post 4072 of the driven clamping assembly 407 through another fixing block 503, thereby pushing the driven clamping assembly 407 to move towards the center. The second sliding plate 4071 of the driven clamping assembly 407 slides synchronously along the sliding rod 404. The second outer clamping block 4074 approaches from the other side of the housing, and the second longitudinal box placement block 4075 on its lower surface is also embedded in the bottom edge of the housing. Finally, the active and driven clamping assemblies 407 apply symmetrical clamping forces to the outer wall of the housing from the left and right sides to achieve external fixation.
[0039] When the gear disk 501 of the linkage mechanism 5 rotates, the inner support mechanism 6 starts synchronously, providing support from inside the housing, forming a synergistic effect of "outer clamping and inner support": the turntable 601 rotates with the gear disk 501: the bottom of the turntable 601 of the inner support mechanism 6 is fixed on the gear disk 501, so when the gear disk 501 rotates, the turntable 601 rotates synchronously. The slider slides along the arc groove 6011 and the T-shaped groove: The four arc grooves 6011 on the turntable 601 are eccentrically designed. The first limiting post 6031 at the bottom of the mounting slider 603 and the second limiting post 6061 at the bottom of the L-shaped support slider 606 are both embedded in the arc grooves 6011. When the turntable 601 rotates, the contour of the arc groove 6011 forces the limiting post to slide along the groove, while driving the mounting slider 603 and the L-shaped support slider 606 to move outward along the T-shaped groove 6021 of the cross-shaped block 602. The T-shaped groove restricts the direction of movement to the horizontal radial direction, ensuring that the slider expands in the "cross" direction. The mounting slider 603 drives the upper inner support plate 604 to expand forward and backward, and the L-shaped support slider 606 expands to the left and right. Finally, the ends of the inner support plate 604 and the L-shaped support slider 606 are pressed against the inner wall of the distribution cabinet housing. The horizontal box placement block 605 at the bottom of the inner support plate 604 supports the bottom edge from inside the housing and cooperates with the vertical placement block on the outside to form a "bottom three-dimensional support" to prevent the housing from deforming due to high temperature during welding.
[0040] During the process of external clamping and internal support, the auxiliary mechanism 2 simultaneously plays a limiting role to prevent the housing from tilting or shifting: when the active and driven clamping components 407 move, the first limiting slide rail 4066 and the second limiting slide rail 4076 on their back slide accordingly. The limiting block 207 of the auxiliary mechanism 2 is embedded in the slide rail. Through the guiding effect of the slide rail, the lateral and oblique slide rails cooperate to limit the movement trajectory of the clamping components, ensuring that the first outer clamping plate 4064 and the second outer clamping block 4074 are always perpendicular to the processing table 1. The limiting block 207 is connected to the first hinge 204 of the square center frame 203 through the connecting rod 205. When the clamping components move, the connecting rod 205 rotates around the hinge, driving the limiting block 207 to make slight up and down adjustments along the sliding column 202. This does not hinder the clamping action and can continuously provide vertical limiting force. The L-shaped support frame 201 is fixed on both sides of the processing table 1 to provide rigid support for the entire auxiliary mechanism 2 and ensure the stability of the limiting force.
[0041] Once the outer clamps, inner supports, and auxiliary limiters are all in place, the distribution cabinet housing is completely fixed and subjected to forces from six sides: left and right / front and back outer clamps + internal four-way support + bottom three-dimensional limiters. At this point, welding operations such as welding of housing seams and fixing of accessories can be carried out. During the welding process, the housing does not shake or deform.
[0042] After welding is completed, the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 305 retracts, and through the above-mentioned linkage, it drives each mechanism to reset in the reverse direction: the outer clamping component separates, the inner support mechanism 6 retracts, and the auxiliary limit block 207 returns to its initial position, so that the operator can take out the welded cabinet.
[0043] In conclusion, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
