Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of radiator welding technology, specifically a flip-type radiator welding device. Background Technology

[0002] In the prior art, the main technical structure of the heat sink includes end caps on both sides and a heat dissipation chip in the middle. The end caps on both sides are used for water inlet and outlet, while the heat dissipation chip in the middle is used for heat dissipation. The heat dissipation chips in the middle need to be set with the same spacing for heat dissipation. In the specific welding process, the heat dissipation chip in the middle needs to be welded and fixed to the end caps on both sides. In the prior art, there are two important issues regarding the specific welding of the end caps on both sides and the heat dissipation chip in the middle.

[0003] First, the fixed position of the end caps on both sides and the heat sink chip in the middle. When welding, the end caps on both sides and the heat sink chip in the middle need to be fixed and pressed together. There are welds on the end caps that correspond to the position of the heat sink chip. The position of the heat sink chip and the welds need to be aligned before welding. This requires the position of the end caps and the heat sink chip to be fixed.

[0004] Secondly, when welding the heat sink chip to the end cover, welding is required at both end faces, as well as at the top and bottom end faces. This means that after welding one side, the entire device needs to be flipped over before welding again, requiring the entire heat sink to be flipped over.

[0005] In the two issues mentioned above, existing technologies have some fixed fixtures that can specifically achieve the fixed welding of radiators, while the flipping of radiators still mostly relies on manual flipping and welding. Of course, there are also some mechanical devices that can assist in flipping, but there are still few structures in existing technologies that integrate the fixing and flipping of radiators into one unit. The inability to combine the two into one setting will affect welding efficiency and welding quality.

[0006] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, it is necessary to develop a flip-type radiator welding equipment with a reasonable structure that can effectively improve welding efficiency and quality. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a flip-type radiator welding device; the technical solution is as follows:

[0008] A flip-type radiator welding device includes a fixed base with upwardly protruding mounting seats on both sides. A horizontally rotating motor is mounted on each mounting seat. The main shafts of the two rotating motors extend inward laterally, and a sleeve is mounted on the main shaft. A sleeve rod is correspondingly mounted inside the sleeve. A pressure plate is mounted on the end of the sleeve rod. A flip plate is also mounted on the sleeve, which is perpendicular to the sleeve. Electric push rod devices are mounted on both sides of the flip plate. The push rod of the electric push rod device extends inward to the pressure plate and is fixed on the pressure plate.

[0009] The flip plate and the pressing plate are arranged in parallel, and the pressing plate can move inward under the action of the electric push rod device on the flip plate. The flip plate, the pressing plate and the electric push rod device on the flip plate can all be flipped under the drive of the flip motor. The heat sink to be welded is fixed between the pressing plates on both sides, and the heat sink is pressed by the pressing plates on both sides.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner end face of the clamping plate is provided with a clamping groove, which is adapted to the size of the end cover of the radiator to be welded. During welding, the radiator is pressed into the clamping groove accordingly.

[0011] Furthermore, a movable guide rail is provided above the fixed base, and an electric movable base is correspondingly installed on the movable guide rail. A welding assembly is installed on the electric movable base, which can be used to weld the end cover of the heat sink to the docking position of the heat sink chip. The welding assembly can be used for welding by manual operation or by control equipment.

[0012] Furthermore, the welding assembly includes a robotic arm and a welding head mounted on the end of the robotic arm. The welding assembly is provided in two sets, each set on both sides of the heat sink at the parts to be welded. Both sets of welding assemblies can be moved and adjusted on the moving guide rail.

[0013] Furthermore, the positions of the movable guide rail, electric movable seat, and welding components above the fixed base are set accordingly so that the radiator will not be affected when it is flipped over under the action of the clamping plates on both sides.

[0014] Furthermore, a lifting mechanism is also installed on the fixed base. A lifting support plate is installed on the lifting rod of the lifting mechanism. The position of the lifting support plate corresponds to the position of the two pressing plates above. The heat sink to be welded, which is pressed between the two pressing plates, is lifted by the lifting support plate below.

[0015] Furthermore, the fixed base is provided with two lifting mechanisms, and correspondingly set the rising and falling positions of the lifting plate. When the lifting plate is lowered, the heat sink between the two pressing plates can be flipped accordingly.

[0016] Furthermore, the sleeve has a square cross-sectional shape; the rod is a corresponding square rod structure; and the clamping plate is fitted and fixed to the outside of the sleeve, with an L-shaped reinforcing strip installed between the clamping plate and the sleeve.

[0017] Beneficial effects: The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1) This invention can realize the pressing and fixing of the end cover of the heat sink and the heat sink chip, as well as the welding of the left and right end faces after the heat sink is pressed and fixed. After the upper end face is welded, the heat sink can be flipped over by a flipping motor to realize the welding of the heat sink on the other end face. The structure is reasonable and effectively improves welding efficiency and quality.

[0019] 2) In this invention, the end caps on both sides are fixed by the clamping plates on both sides and the clamping grooves on the clamping plates. In addition, an electric push rod device is installed on the sleeve. The electric push rod presses the clamping plates inward, thereby pressing the end caps between the two clamping plates. The heat dissipation chip between the two end caps is also pressed accordingly, thus fixing the heat sink.

[0020] 3) In this invention, a sleeve and a rod are installed on the main shaft of the flip motor. A flip plate is installed on the sleeve and is set to flip accordingly. A clamping plate is installed at the end of the rod and also flips accordingly. On the one hand, it can achieve flipping, and on the other hand, it can achieve clamping. The structure is ingenious and reasonable.

[0021] 4) In this invention, a lifting mechanism is also installed on the fixed base and a lifting plate is installed on the lifting shaft of the lifting mechanism. The radiator above can be supported by the lifting plate, so that the radiator can be fixed from both the bottom and left and right sides, and the structure is stable and reliable.

[0022] 5) In this invention, a movable guide rail is set directly above the fixed base and an electric movable base is installed on the movable guide rail. A welding assembly is also installed on the electric movable base, so that the welding of the radiator can be achieved through the welding assembly. The structure is reasonably designed.

[0023] 6) In this invention, after welding is completed on one end face of the radiator, the position of the lifting support plate and the position of the welding components above are adjusted so that neither component can obstruct the flipping. Then, the radiator is flipped by the flipping motor, thereby realizing the welding work on both end faces of the radiator and effectively improving the welding efficiency.

Detailed Implementation

[0032] The present invention will be further illustrated below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. These embodiments are implemented based on the technical solutions of the present invention, and it should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a flip-type radiator welding device includes a fixed base 1. The fixed base 1 has upwardly protruding mounting seats 2 on both sides. A horizontal flip motor 3 is installed on both sides of the mounting seats 2. The main shafts of the two flip motors 3 extend horizontally inward and are equipped with sleeves 4. A sleeve rod 5 is installed inside the sleeve 4. A pressure plate 6 is installed at the end of the sleeve rod 5. A flip plate 7 is also installed on the sleeve 4. The flip plate 7 is perpendicular to the sleeve 4. Electric push rod devices 8 are installed on both sides of the flip plate 7. The push rod 9 of the electric push rod device 8 extends inward to the pressure plate 6 and is fixed on the pressure plate 6.

[0034] The flip plate 7 and the clamping plate 6 are arranged in parallel, and the clamping plate 6 can move inward under the action of the electric push rod device 8 on the flip plate 7. The flip plate 7, the clamping plate 6 and the electric push rod device 8 on the flip plate 7 can all be flipped under the drive of the flip motor 3. The heat sink 10 to be welded is fixed between the clamping plates 6 on both sides, and the heat sink 10 is pressed by the clamping plates 6 on both sides.

[0035] The inner end face of the clamping plate 6 is provided with a clamping groove 11, which is adapted to the size of the end cover 101 of the radiator 10 to be welded. During welding, the radiator 10 is pressed into the clamping groove 11.

[0036] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a movable guide rail 12 is provided above the fixed base 1, and an electric movable base 13 is installed on the movable guide rail 12. A welding assembly is installed on the electric movable base 13. The welding assembly can be used to weld the mating position of the end cover 101 of the heat sink 10 and the heat sink chip 102. The welding assembly can be used for welding by manual operation or by control equipment.

[0037] The welding assembly includes a robotic arm 14 and a welding head 15 mounted on the end of the robotic arm 14. There are two sets of welding assemblies, each set on both sides of the heat sink 10 at the parts to be welded. Both sets of welding assemblies can be moved and adjusted on the moving guide rail 12.

[0038] The positions of the movable guide rail 12, the electric movable seat 13, and the welding components above the fixed base 1 are set accordingly so that the radiator 10 will not be affected when it is flipped under the action of the clamping plates 6 on both sides.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, a lifting mechanism 16 is also installed on the fixed base 1. A lifting support plate 18 is installed on the lifting rod 17 of the lifting mechanism 16. The position of the lifting support plate 18 corresponds to the position of the two pressing plates 6 above. The heat sink 10 to be welded, which is pressed between the two pressing plates 6, is lifted by the lifting support plate 18 below.

[0040] There are two lifting mechanisms 16 on the fixed base 1, and the lifting plate 18 is set with a rising position and a falling position respectively. When the lifting plate 18 falls, the radiator 10 between the two pressing plates 6 can be flipped accordingly.

[0041] like Figure 6 As shown, the cross-sectional shape of the sleeve 4 is set as a square structure; while the sleeve rod 5 is set as a corresponding square rod structure; and the clamping plate 6 is fitted and fixed to the outside of the sleeve 4, and an L-shaped reinforcing strip 19 is also installed between the clamping plate 6 and the sleeve 4.

[0042] The technical solution of this invention is mainly used for the welding of end caps 101 and heat sink chips 102 in a heat sink 10. The most important part of the heat sink 10 during the specific welding process is the corresponding welding of end caps 101 and heat sink chips 102. The main difficulty lies in the fact that, on the one hand, it is necessary to weld the corresponding positions of end caps 101 on both sides and heat sink chips 102, and on the other hand, it is necessary to weld the corresponding positions of the upper and lower end faces of end caps 101. Therefore, the entire heat sink 10 needs to be flipped over for welding. Another technical problem that needs to be solved is the fixing of end caps 101 and heat sink chips 102. End caps 101 need to be set to be pressed against heat sink chips 102 in order to achieve welding. Therefore, it is also necessary to press and fix heat sink chips 102 and end caps 101 at both ends, and to be able to flip over after welding.

[0043] In the technical solution of this invention, a corresponding fixed base 1 is first set as a foundation. The protruding mounting seats 2 on both sides of the fixed base 1 are mainly used to correspondingly set the mounting seats 2. The rotating motor 3 is installed through the mounting seats 2. The setting of the rotating motor 3 is mainly to realize the rotation of the radiator 10, but it is also necessary to set up a structural component for pressing the radiator 10. In this invention, a sleeve 4 is installed on the main shaft of the rotating motor and a sleeve rod 5 is installed inside the sleeve 4. First of all, it should be noted that in this invention, both the sleeve 4 and the sleeve rod 5 are set as square cross-section structures. So when the rotating main shaft rotates, it will drive When the sleeve 4 and the sleeve rod 5 inside the sleeve 4 rotate together, and the end of the sleeve rod 5 is equipped with a clamping plate 6, the clamping plate 6 will also rotate together. In this invention, the inner end face of the clamping plate 6 is provided with a clamping groove 11. The size of the clamping groove 11 is consistent with the size of the end cover 101 of the heat sink 10. The end cover 101 can be installed in the clamping grooves 11 on both sides. However, since there is no external clamping force, even if the end cover 101 is installed in the clamping groove 11, the heat sink chip 102 between the two end covers 101 cannot be fixed in place. Therefore, this technical problem needs to be solved.

[0044] The technical solution of this invention is to install a rotating flip plate 7 on the sleeve 4. The flip plate 7 is embedded and fixed on the sleeve 4. In order to further strengthen the flip plate 7, an L-shaped reinforcing strip 19 is also provided to make the flip plate 7 more stable. The flip plate 7 is mainly set for the corresponding installation of the electric push rod 9 device 8. The push rod 9 of the electric push rod 9 device 8 extends inward and is fixed on the pressure plate 6. Then, the electric push rod 9 device 8 can move forward and press against the pressure plate 6 to achieve the fixation of the pressure plate 6. Figure 5As shown, each flip plate 7 is equipped with an electric push rod 9 device 8 on both sides, so the pressing plate 6 can be pressed down from both sides. The pressing plates 6 on both sides press the end cover 101 inward, so the heat dissipation chip 102 between the end cover 101 is also pressed down accordingly, so that the end cover 101 and the heat dissipation chip 102 are pressed into one piece, and welding can be achieved accordingly.

[0045] However, in the above technical solution, the end caps 101 on both sides are only pressed and fixed by the clamping plates 6 on both sides, and no lifting device is set at the bottom, which poses a certain risk. Therefore, the technical solution of the present invention also provides a lifting mechanism 16, such as... Figure 1 As shown, in this invention, two lifting mechanisms 16 can be installed on the fixed base 1, and lifting plates 18 are installed on the lifting shafts of the two lifting mechanisms 16. The radiator 10 can be lifted from below by the lifting plates 18. Figure 4 As shown, the end cover 101 of the radiator 10 is pressed inward by the pressure plates 6 on both sides, while the bottom is lifted upward by the lifting support plate 18, making the position very stable and providing certain support and stability from both directions.

[0046] In this invention, welding is achieved through a movable guide rail 12 mounted on the upper side, an electrically operated movable seat 13 on the movable guide rail 12, and a welding assembly. Firstly, the structural arrangement of the movable guide rail 12 and the electrically operated movable seat 13 is common in the prior art, essentially an electrically operated moving device that allows the electrically operated movable seat 13 to move on the movable guide rail 12. The welding assembly is mounted on the movable guide rail 12, specifically as follows... Figure 4 As shown, the welding assembly is existing technology and may include components such as the robotic arm 14 and the welding head 15 on the wall of the robotic arm 14. All welding components are existing technology equipment, so welding can be performed manually. After the overall device below fixes the end cover 101 and the heat sink chip 102 of the heat sink 10, welding can be performed by the welding assembly above. Manual welding is convenient, and the structure is reasonable and clear.

[0047] Importantly, this invention involves the flipping of the radiator 10. After the welding of the radiator 10 on its upper surface is completed, the radiator 10 needs to be flipped over before welding can proceed. Therefore, in this invention's technical solution, the lower lifting support plate 18 first needs to be moved downwards. Figure 7As shown, the lifting plate 18 needs to be moved to a position below that will not obstruct the rotation of the radiator 10, and the welding components above are also set up in the same way so that they will not affect the rotation of the radiator 10. After the restrictions above and below are removed, the rotating motor 3 can drive the rotating plate 7, the pressing plate 6 and the radiator 10 inside the pressing plate 6 to rotate together, so that the radiator 10 rotates to the other side. Then the lifting plate 18 is raised so that the lifting plate 18 supports the radiator 10 upwards, and the welding can be completed. The structure is set up in a very reasonable and effective way, which can easily complete the rotation of the radiator 10, making the welding of both ends very efficient.

[0048] The above-described specific embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present invention or the scope of the claims. All equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of patent protection of the present invention should be included within the scope of the present invention patent application.
