Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of welding technology, and in particular to an integrated welding and forming machine suitable for basketball steel frames. Background Technology

[0002] Basketball hoops are a widely used piece of sports equipment, and the manufacturing quality of their core supporting structure—the steel frame—directly affects the product's safety, stability, and durability. Currently, the welding production of basketball steel frames typically separates multiple processes such as material preparation, bending, assembly, welding, and slag removal, which are completed by different equipment or workstations. Frame components need to be repeatedly transferred, positioned, and clamped between these processes, resulting in a lengthy production process, large floor space requirements, and heavy reliance on the skill level of the operators. The numerous manual interventions lead to low production efficiency, making it difficult to achieve stable, large-scale, assembly-line output.

[0003] However, ordinary integrated welding and forming machines for basketball steel frames often have some problems in daily use. With the development of technology, technicians in related fields have also made a lot of optimizations to the integrated welding and forming machines for basketball steel frames to solve some of the problems that different consumer groups are concerned about. For a more accurate comparison, Chinese patent with publication number CN119238003A discloses a basketball hoop welding device, including a base; a pair of support columns are slidably connected to the top surface of the base; the two support columns are driven by a lead screw and a servo motor; and the top surface of the support columns is fixedly connected to... A connecting frame is formed; multiple evenly arranged receiving plates are fixed to the top surface of the connecting frame; a baffle is installed at the end of the top surface of the receiving plate near the center of the connecting frame; a hydraulic cylinder is fixed to the end of the top surface of the receiving plate away from the baffle; a push plate is fixed to the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder; a guide rail is fixed to the top surface of the base; a welding robotic arm is slidably connected to the surface of the guide rail, and the welding robotic arm is driven by a servo motor. By sliding the welding robotic arm along the surface of the guide rail, the welding of the top and bottom of the square tube is completed, thereby avoiding the need for the user to manually remove the square tube and flip it over, thus reducing the process of flipping the square tube and improving production efficiency.

[0004] However, the aforementioned basketball hoop welding equipment still has some shortcomings in actual use: 1. The above-mentioned basketball hoop welding equipment uses a welding robotic arm to slide along the guide rail surface to complete the welding of the top and bottom of the square tube. This avoids the user having to manually remove the square tube and flip it over, thus reducing the process of flipping the square tube and improving production efficiency. However, the welding robotic arm will hinder the movement of the square tube during the movement, resulting in uneven loading and unloading of the square tube, which in turn affects the welding efficiency.

[0005] 2. The above-mentioned basketball hoop welding equipment drives the square tube to stop between the push plate and the baffle by rotating the drive roller for a period of time and then stopping it. This reduces the range of manual adjustment of the square tube by the user and reduces the difficulty of fixing the square tube. However, the above device can only fix the square tube and cannot fix the steel to be welded, which makes it inconvenient to weld the square tube.

[0006] Therefore, based on the above-stated viewpoints, there is still room for improvement in the existing integrated welding and forming machines and methods applicable to basketball steel frames. Summary of the Invention

[0033] This application discloses an integrated welding and forming machine suitable for basketball steel frames. Specifically, this application is mainly used in the welding process of basketball steel frames. Technically, it can automatically fix and position the steel, preventing displacement during welding and ensuring the steel is fixed in a suitable position for further processing.

A short plate 13 is hinged to the side of the long plate 12 away from the mounting plate 11 and can rotate under the restriction of the long plate 12. A rotating shaft 14 is provided between the short plate 13, the long plate 12, and the mounting plate 11. Rolling rollers 15 are symmetrically rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft 14 and can rotate under the restriction of the rotating shaft 14. When the steel comes into contact with the rolling roller 15, the steel can move along the rolling roller 15 from the mounting plate 11 to between the short plates 13.

The top of the welding platform 1 is equipped with a cutting mechanism 3, which is used to cut the steel so that the steel can be bent into the shape of a basketball hoop, thereby facilitating the welding of the steel.

[0035] In the specific implementation process, the steel is placed between the mounting plates 11, and the steel comes into contact with the rotating roller. The steel moves from the mounting plates 11 to the short plates 13 along the rolling roller 15. Then, the steel is fixed and positioned by the fixing mechanism 2 to prevent the steel from shifting during the welding process and to fix the steel in a suitable position for the next step of processing. Then, the control mechanism 4 is used to cut the steel so that it can be bent into the shape of a basketball hoop, which facilitates the welding of the steel.

[0036] Reference Figure 2As shown, this is the fixing mechanism 2 in this application; specifically, the fixing mechanism 2 includes a rotating rod 20, an active plate 21, a fixed plate 22, a spring 220, a contact rod 23, and a driven plate 24.

The short plate 13, the long plate 12 and the mounting plate 11 are connected by a spring 220. The spring 220 can always provide a pushing force to the long plate 12 for the rotating rod 20. Multiple abutment rods 23 are rotatably arranged between the inner walls of the short plate 13, the long plate 12 and the mounting plate 11. The abutment rods 23 can rotate under the restriction of the short plate 13, the long plate 12 or the mounting plate 11. When the abutment rods 23 abut against the steel, they can fix the steel. A driven plate 24 is provided on the side of the abutment rod 23 near the long plate 12 and through the short plate 13, the long plate 12 or the mounting plate 11. When the driven plate 24 rotates, it can drive the abutment rods 23 to rotate together.

[0037] In the specific implementation process, when the rotating rod 20 rotates, it can drive the active plate 21 to rotate together, and when the driven plate 24 rotates, it can drive the abutting rod 23 to rotate together. When the abutting rod 23 abuts against the steel, it can fix the steel.

[0038] Reference Figure 3 As shown, this is the fixing mechanism 2 in this application; specifically, the fixing mechanism 2 also includes a rigid slide 25, a rigid slide plate 250, a flexible slide 26, a flexible slide plate 260, a moving frame 27, a strip frame 28, and a bending unit 29.

A flexible slide plate 260, connected to the rigid slide plate 250, is slidably disposed within the flexible slide 26, allowing the flexible slide plate 260 to bend when the rigid slide plate 250 moves. The flexible slide 26 slides under the constraint of the flexible slide 26; the top of the flexible slide 260 and the rigid slide 250 are provided with a moving frame 27 sleeved on the driven plate 24, and the top of the flexible slide 26 is provided with a strip frame 28 sleeved on the active plate 21. When the active plate 21 rotates, it can drive the flexible slide 260 to slide under the constraint of the flexible slide 26 through the strip frame 28. When the flexible slide 260 moves, it can drive the rigid slide 250 to slide under the constraint of the rigid slide 25.

The top of the welding platform 1 is provided with a bending unit 29, which is used to drive the long plate 12 and the short plate 13 to move.

[0039] In the specific implementation process, when the steel moves along the rolling roller 15 to the rotating rod 20, it can push the rotating rod 20 to rotate. When the rotating rod 20 rotates, it can drive the active plate 21 to rotate together. When the active plate 21 rotates, it can drive the flexible slide plate 260 to slide under the restriction of the flexible slide track 26 through the strip frame 28.

When the flexible slide plate 260 and the rigid slide plate 250 move, they can drive the moving frame 27 to move together. When the moving frame 27 moves, it can drive the driven plate 24 to rotate. When the driven plate 24 rotates, it can drive the abutting rod 23 to rotate together. When the abutting rod 23 abuts against the steel, it can fix the steel.

[0040] Reference Figure 4 As shown, this is the bending unit 29 in this application; specifically, the bending unit 29 includes a drive shaft 290, an extension rod 291, a long push rod 292, a short push rod 293, and a drive motor 294. The drive shaft 290 is rotatably mounted inside the welding platform 1, located on one side of the inner wall of the long plate 12. The drive shaft 290 can rotate under the constraint of the welding platform 1. An extension rod 291, which slides on the top of the welding platform 1, is sleeved on the drive shaft 290. When the drive shaft 290 rotates, it drives the extension rod 291 to rotate together. The extension plate 12 is close to the short plate 13. A long push rod 292 is provided on one side. When the extension plate 12 rotates, it can drive the long push rod 292 to rotate together. When the long push rod 292 rotates, it can drive the short plate 13 to move. A short push rod 293 is provided on the side of the extension plate 12 near the long plate 12. When the extension plate 12 rotates, it can also drive the short push rod 293 to rotate together. When the short push rod 293 rotates, it can drive the long plate 12 to move. A drive motor 294 connected to the transmission shaft 290 is provided at the bottom of the welding platform 1 through the motor housing.

When the short push rod 293 rotates, it can drive the long plate 12 to move.

[0042] Reference Figure 5As shown, this is the cutting mechanism 3 in this application; specifically, the cutting mechanism 3 includes a square column 30, an electric slider 300, an L-shaped rod 31, a receiving plate 32, a rotating shaft 33, a cutting saw 34, a balance bar 35, a belt 350, a lifting unit 36, an arc-shaped triangular block 37, a top rod 38, a connecting plate 39, and a spring 390. A square column 30 is provided on the top of the welding platform 1 and located between the short plate 13 and the long plate 12 and between the long plate 12 and the mounting plate 11. An electric slider 300 is slidably installed inside the square column 30. The electric slider 300 can slide under the constraint of the square post 30; an L-shaped rod 31 is provided on the side of the electric slider 300 near the rolling roller 15, and the electric slider 300 can drive the L-shaped rod 31 to move together when it moves; a receiving plate 32 is provided at the bottom of the L-shaped rod 31 and at the top of the rolling roller 15, and the receiving plate 32 can move together when the L-shaped rod 31 moves; a rotating shaft 33 is provided at the bottom of the receiving plate 32 and rotatably through the L-shaped rod 31, and the rotating shaft 33 can rotate under the constraint of the receiving plate 32; a sleeve is provided on the rotating shaft 33. The cutting saw 34 is driven to rotate along with the rotating shaft 33 when the shaft rotates. The cutting saw 34 is used to cut steel. A balance bar 35 is rotatably mounted on the top of the L-shaped rod 31. The two ends of the balance bar 35 are sleeved on the rotating shaft 33 via belts 350. When the balance bar 35 rotates, it pulls the belts 350, which in turn drive the rotating shaft 33 to rotate. A top-drop unit 36 ​​is also provided on the L-shaped rod 31. The top-drop unit 36 ​​causes the cut steel to fall off the main body of the steel, preventing the cut steel from being welded. The following features are provided: an arc-shaped triangular block 37 is slidably mounted on one side of the L-shaped rod 31, which is used to drive the balance bar 35 to rotate; when the arc-shaped triangular block 37 moves, it can drive the square column 30 to move. The top and outer wall of the square column 30 are both provided with push rods 38, which are used to push the arc-shaped triangular block 37 to move; a connecting plate 39 is provided on the outer wall of the square column 30 away from the push rod 38, and the connecting plate 39 and the balance bar 35 are connected by a second spring 390. The second spring 390 can always provide the balance bar 35 with a tension close to the connecting plate 39.

[0043] In the specific implementation process, the electric slider 300 can slide under the restriction of the square column 30. When the electric slider 300 moves, it can drive the L-shaped rod 31 to move together. When the L-shaped rod 31 moves, it can drive the receiving plate 32 to move together. When the receiving plate 32 moves, it can drive the cutting saw 34 to rotate together. The cutting saw 34 is used to cut the steel. In the initial state, the balance rod 35 rotates towards the connecting plate 39 under the action of the second spring 390. When the balance rod 35 rotates, it will drive the belt 350 to rotate together. When the belt 350 rotates, it can drive the rotating shaft 33 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 33 rotates, it can drive the cutting saw 34 to rotate together, causing the cutting saw 34 to deflect. Then, under the drive of the electric slider 300, it moves downward to realize the cutting of the steel.

[0044] Then, as the L-shaped rod 31 moves upward, it will drive the arc-shaped triangular block 37 to move as well. When the arc-shaped triangular block 37 contacts the top rod 38, it will push the arc-shaped triangular block 37 downward. During the downward movement, the arc-shaped triangular block 37 will overcome the tension of the spring 390 and push the balance rod 35 to rotate. When the balance rod 35 rotates, it will drive the rotating shaft 33 to rotate through the belt 350. When the rotating shaft 33 rotates, it can drive the cutting saw 34 to rotate as well, causing the cutting saw 34 to deflect. Then, the L-shaped rod 31 moves downward, driving the cutting saw 34 to perform a secondary cut on the steel. At the same time, when the L-shaped rod 31 moves, it can drive the arc-shaped triangular block 37 to move as well. When the arc-shaped triangular block 37 contacts the bottom top rod 38, it pushes the arc-shaped triangular block 37 to move upward, so that the arc-shaped triangular block 37 no longer pushes the balance rod 35 to rotate. Then, the balance rod 35 rotates towards the connecting plate 39 under the action of the second spring 390. When the balance rod 35 rotates, the cutting saw 34 is reset again under the action of the belt 350. Finally, the L-shaped rod 31 drives the cutting saw 34 to move upward again. This time, the arc-shaped triangular block 37 on the L-shaped rod 31 does not contact the top rod 38 above, so that the cutting saw 34 is in the initial position when it moves downward, thereby realizing the triangular cutting of the steel, so that the inclined surface of the steel can overlap to form the bending of the basketball frame.

[0045] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, this is the top-drop unit 36 ​​in this application; specifically, the top-drop unit 36 ​​includes a threaded top rod 360, a collection channel 361, and a collection frame 362. The threaded top rod 360 is rotatably installed inside the L-shaped rod 31 through a threaded engagement, and the threaded top rod 360 extends downward through the receiving plate 32. The threaded top rod 360 and the rotating shaft 14 are connected by a belt drive. When the rotating shaft 14 rotates, it can drive the threaded top rod 360 to move up and down. The threaded top rod 360 is used to top off the cut steel. The welding platform 1 has a collection channel 361 located below the threaded top rod 360. The welding platform 1 is provided with a collection frame 362 located at the bottom of the collection channel 361. The cut steel can enter the collection frame 362 through the collection channel 361, and the cut steel is centrally processed through the collection frame 362.

[0046] In the specific implementation process, when the L-shaped rod 31 moves, it can drive the threaded push rod 360 to move together. When the rotating shaft 14 rotates, it can drive the threaded push rod 360 to move downward, thereby pushing off the cut steel. The cut steel can enter the collection frame 362 through the collection channel 361, and the cut steel is centrally processed through the collection frame 362.

[0047] Example 2: Refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, based on Embodiment 1, in order to prevent the welding equipment from affecting the cutting of steel and to facilitate the processing of steel, in this specific embodiment of the solution, a control mechanism 4 is provided on the top of the welding platform 1; specifically, the control mechanism 4 includes a support rod 40, a slide 41, a sliding plate 42, a U-shaped limiting plate 43, a welding robot 44, a double linkage 45, and a push rod 46. The support rod 40 is provided on the side of the top of the short plate 13 and the long plate 12 near the mounting plate 11, and the support rod 40 can move together when the short plate 13 and the long plate 12 move; the slide 41 is provided on the side of the support rod 40 near the mounting plate 11, and the sliding plate 42 is slidably arranged in the slide 41, and the sliding plate 42 can move in the slide 41. 1. The sliding plate 42 is hinged to a C-shaped limiting plate 43 at its bottom. When the sliding plate 42 moves, it can drive the C-shaped limiting plate 43 to move together. A welding robot 44 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the C-shaped limiting plate 43. When the C-shaped limiting plate 43 moves, it can drive the welding robot 44 to move together. At the same time, the welding robot 44 can also slide on the inner wall of the C-shaped limiting plate 43. The welding robot 44 is used to weld steel. A two-link rod 45 is hinged between the C-shaped limiting plate 43 and the sliding plate 42. The two-link rod 45 can drive the rotation of the C-shaped limiting plate 43. A push rod 46 is provided on one side of the support rod 40, which abuts against the two-link rod 45. The push rod 46 is used to drive the two-link rod 45 to rotate.

[0048] In the specific implementation process, when the steel needs to be welded after being cut and bent, the sliding plate 42 moves towards the steel. As the sliding plate 42 moves, it drives the U-shaped limiting plate 43 to move as well, ensuring that the U-shaped limiting plate 43 is in a vertical position. The movement of the U-shaped limiting plate 43 also drives the welding robot 44 to move together. The welding robot 44 slides within the U-shaped limiting plate 43 to achieve welding of the steel. At this time, the two connecting rods 45 are not folded. After welding is completed, the sliding plate 42 moves away from the steel. When one side moves, the sliding plate 42 can drive the two-link 45 to move together. When the two-link 45 moves, it abuts against the push rod 46, causing the two-link 45 to fold under the action of the push rod 46. When the two-link 45 folds, it can drive the C-shaped limiting plate 43 to rotate, so that the C-shaped limiting plate 43 moves in the horizontal direction. At the same time, when the sliding plate 42 moves, it can drive the C-shaped limiting plate 43 and the welding robot 44 to move together, so that the C-shaped limiting plate 43 and the welding robot 44 move out from above the rolling roller 15.

[0049] Reference Figure 10As shown, this is the control mechanism 4 in this application; specifically, the control mechanism 4 also includes a support frame 47, a spring 470, a rotating rod 48, and a push plate 49. The top of the welding platform 1 is provided with a support frame 47, and the support frame 47 and the sliding plate 42 are connected by a spring 470. The spring 470 can always provide a pulling force to the sliding plate 42 towards the support frame 47; the bottom of the support frame 47 is rotatably provided with a rotating rod 48, and a push plate 49 is sleeved on the rotating rod 48. When the rotating rod 48 rotates, it can drive the push plate 49 to rotate together. When the push plate 49 rotates, it can move the sliding plate 42 towards the steel; the drive motor 294 and the rotating rod 48 are connected by a belt drive. When the drive motor 294 rotates, it can drive the rotating rod 48 to rotate together.

[0050] In the specific implementation process, when the drive motor 294 drives the extension rod 291 to drive the long plate 12 and the short plate 13 to rotate, it can drive the rotating rod 48 to rotate together. When the rotating rod 48 rotates, it can drive the push plate 49 to rotate together. When the push plate 49 rotates, it can move the sliding plate 42 towards the steel. When the sliding plate 42 moves, it can drive the welding robot 44 to come into contact with the steel, preventing the welding robot 44 from affecting the cutting of the steel.

[0051] During operation: First, the steel is placed between the mounting plates 11, and the steel abuts against the rotating roller. When the steel moves along the rolling roller 15 towards the rotating rod 20, it can push the rotating rod 20 to rotate. When the rotating rod 20 rotates, it can drive the active plate 21 to rotate together. When the active plate 21 rotates, it can drive the flexible slide plate 260 to slide under the restriction of the flexible slide track 26 through the strip frame 28. When the flexible slide plate 260 moves, it can drive the rigid slide plate 250 to slide under the restriction of the rigid slide track 25. When the flexible slide plate 260 and the rigid slide plate 250 move, they can drive the moving frame 27 to move together. When the moving frame 27 moves, it can drive the driven plate 24 to rotate. When the driven plate 24 rotates, it can drive the abutting rod 23 to rotate together. When the abutting rod 23 abuts against the steel, it can fix the steel.

[0052] Step 2: Next, the electric slider 300 can slide under the constraint of the square column 30. When the electric slider 300 moves, it can drive the L-shaped rod 31 to move together. When the L-shaped rod 31 moves, it can drive the receiving plate 32 to move together. When the receiving plate 32 moves, it can drive the cutting saw 34 to rotate together. The cutting saw 34 is used to cut the steel. In the initial state, the balance rod 35 rotates towards the connecting plate 39 under the action of the spring 390. When the balance rod 35 rotates, it will drive the belt 350 to rotate together. When the belt 350 rotates, it can drive the rotating shaft 33 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 33 rotates, it can drive the cutting saw 34 to rotate together, causing the cutting saw 34 to deflect. Then, driven by the electric slider 300, it moves downward to achieve the cutting of the steel.

[0053] Then, as the L-shaped rod 31 moves upward, it will drive the arc-shaped triangular block 37 to move as well. When the arc-shaped triangular block 37 contacts the top rod 38, it will push the arc-shaped triangular block 37 downward. During the downward movement, the arc-shaped triangular block 37 will overcome the tension of the spring 390 and push the balance rod 35 to rotate. When the balance rod 35 rotates, it will drive the rotating shaft 33 to rotate through the belt 350. When the rotating shaft 33 rotates, it can drive the cutting saw 34 to rotate as well, causing the cutting saw 34 to deflect. Then, the L-shaped rod 31 moves downward, driving the cutting saw 34 to perform a secondary cut on the steel. At the same time, when the L-shaped rod 31 moves, it can drive the arc-shaped triangular block 37 to move as well. When the arc-shaped triangular block 37 contacts the bottom top rod 38, it pushes the arc-shaped triangular block 37 to move upward, so that the arc-shaped triangular block 37 no longer pushes the balance rod 35 to rotate. Then, the balance rod 35 rotates towards the connecting plate 39 under the action of the second spring 390. When the balance rod 35 rotates, the cutting saw 34 is reset again under the action of the belt 350. Finally, the L-shaped rod 31 drives the cutting saw 34 to move upward again. This time, the arc-shaped triangular block 37 on the L-shaped rod 31 does not contact the top rod 38 above, so that the cutting saw 34 is in the initial position when it moves downward, thereby realizing the triangular cutting of the steel, so that the inclined surface of the steel can overlap to form the bending of the basketball frame.

[0054] Step 3: When the L-shaped rod 31 moves, it can also drive the threaded push rod 360 to move together. When the rotating shaft 14 rotates, it can drive the threaded push rod 360 to move downward, thereby pushing off the cut steel. The cut steel can enter the collection frame 362 through the collection channel 361, and the cut steel is centrally processed through the collection frame 362.

[0055] Step 4: After the steel is cut, the drive motor 294 rotates, which drives the transmission shaft 290 to rotate as well. The transmission shaft 290 rotates, which drives the extension rod 291 to rotate as well. The extension plate 12 rotates, which drives the long push rod 292 to rotate as well. The long push rod 292 rotates, which drives the short plate 13 to move. At the same time, the extension plate 12 rotates, which also drives the short push rod 293 to rotate as well. The short push rod 293 rotates, which drives the long plate 12 to move. The movement of the short plate 13 and the long plate 12 can move the cut steel together, thus achieving the bending of the cut steel.

[0056] Step 5: When the drive motor 294 drives the extension rod 291 to rotate the long plate 12 and the short plate 13, it can drive the rotating rod 48 to rotate together. When the rotating rod 48 rotates, it can drive the push plate 49 to rotate together. When the push plate 49 rotates, it can move the sliding plate 42 towards the steel. When the sliding plate 42 moves, it can drive the C-shaped limiting plate 43 to move together, so that the C-shaped limiting plate 43 is in the vertical direction. When the C-shaped limiting plate 43 moves, it can drive the welding robot 44 to move together. By sliding the welding robot 44 within the C-shaped limiting plate 43, the welding of the steel is achieved. At this time, the two-way welding is completed. Rod 45 is not folded; after welding is completed, sliding plate 42 moves away from the steel. When sliding plate 42 moves, it can drive the two connecting rods 45 to move together. When the two connecting rods 45 move, they come into contact with push rod 46, causing the two connecting rods 45 to fold under the action of push rod 46. When the two connecting rods 45 fold, they can drive the C-shaped limiting plate 43 to rotate, so that the C-shaped limiting plate 43 moves in the horizontal direction. At the same time, when sliding plate 42 moves, it can drive the C-shaped limiting plate 43 and welding robot 44 to move together, so that the C-shaped limiting plate 43 and welding robot 44 move out from above the rolling roller 15.
