TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of forklift mast section steel processing, in particular to a welding deformation control clamp for forklift mast section steel. BACKGROUND
[0002] The forklift mast section steel welding clamp is a tooling device specially used for precise assembly and welding of forklift masts. The clamp usually includes a solid base frame and multiple sets of quick pressing clamps, which can reliably fix the mast channel steel and internal lining plate at the preset ideal position, thereby ensuring the welding quality and dimensional accuracy.
[0003] However, the overall or local shaking of the clamp caused by arc impact, welding machine high-frequency vibration and component thermal stress during welding can cause the positioning of the welded part to deviate, the weld forming to be poor, and even irreversible welding deformation to occur.

During welding, on the one hand, the pawl wheel deadlocks to limit the movement of the section steel, and on the other hand, if the forklift mast section steel has a slight reverse displacement trend, the hydraulic oil will form a temporary hydraulic lock due to the large flow resistance in the flow channel, thereby hindering the movement of the components.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.
[0029] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0030] See Figures 1-8 A welding deformation control fixture for forklift mast steel, comprising:
[0031] The machine body 1 has a ratchet wheel 11 rotatably connected to the machine body 1, and the ratchet wheel 11 is slidably connected to the surface of the forklift mast steel.
[0032] The dual-station unit 2 is slidably connected to the machine body 1. A clamping unit 4 is installed at the end of the dual-station unit 2. The dual-station unit 2 is used to alternately clamp and fix the upper surface of the forklift mast steel through the clamping unit 4.
[0033] The automatic clamping unit 7 is rotatably connected to the machine body 1 and connected to the ratchet wheel 11. It is used to cooperate with the ratchet wheel 11 to achieve automatic clamping and fixing of both sides of the forklift mast steel.
[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the dual-station unit 2 includes:
[0035] The bracket 21 is fixed to the body 1, and a support plate 22 is fixed in the middle of the bracket 21;
[0036] The slide rod 23 is slidably connected to the support plate 22, and a roller 231 is installed at the upper end of the slide rod 23;
[0037] Cylinder 24 is mounted on top of bracket 21;
[0038] The slide groove 26 is opened on the top of the bracket 21, and a sliding member 25 is slidably connected inside it. One side of the sliding member 25 is fixed to the output end of the cylinder 24.
[0039] The sliding frame 27 is slidably connected to the top inner wall of the bracket 21, and the sliding frame 27 and the sliding member 25 are fixedly connected.
[0040] An arc-shaped groove 271 is formed on the sliding frame 27. One end of the rolling wheel 231 is slidably connected to the surface of the arc-shaped groove 271, and the other end of the rolling wheel 231 is connected to the support plate 22 through an elastic element.
[0041] When welding the forklift mast steel, first place the C-shaped or J-shaped steel between the two sets of ratchet wheels 11, then activate the cylinder 24. The output end of the cylinder 24 will drive the sliding member 25 to slide within the slide groove 26. The sliding member 25 will drive the sliding frame 27 to slide on the inner wall of the machine body 1. The sliding frame 27 will drive the arc-shaped groove 271 to slide synchronously. Since the arc-shaped groove 271 and the rolling wheel 231 are connected by rolling, as the sliding frame 27 slides from the leftmost to the rightmost position, the left sliding rod 23... The end roller 231 slides to the protrusion of the arc groove 271, and the end roller 231 of the right slide rod 23 slides to the concave part of the arc groove 271. Thus, the left slide rod 23 slides downward in the support plate 22 under the action of the roller 231 and the protrusion of the arc groove 271. When the roller 231 slides, it compresses the elastic element (specifically a spring). The right roller 231 drives the right slide rod 23 to move upward under the action of the corresponding elastic element.
[0042] Therefore, when the sliding frame 27 slides to the right, the left sliding rod 23 will drive the clamping unit 4 at its end to slide upward, and the right sliding rod 23 will drive the clamping unit 4 at its end to slide downward. Thus, the two sets of clamping units 4 can alternately clamp the forklift mast steel. When one set of clamping units 4 is clamping the forklift mast steel, the forklift mast steel can be welded.
[0043] In this embodiment, the slider 25 drives the sliding frame 27 to slide on the inner wall of the body 1, and the sliding frame 27 drives the slider 32 to slide on the slide rail 31. Through the cooperation of the slide rail 31 and the slider 32, the stability of the sliding frame 27 during sliding can be improved.
[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the clamping unit 4 includes:
[0045] The fixing frame 41 is connected to the lower end of the slide rod 23, and four sets of spring columns 46 are slidably connected on the fixing frame 41;
[0046] A fixed wheel 47 is fixed to the end of a spring column 46, and the fixed wheel 47 and the fixed frame 41 are connected by a compression spring 48;
[0047] The extension rod 42 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the fixed frame 41, and the end is connected to the limit frame 421;
[0048] The fixed plate 43 is slidably connected to the middle of the extension rod 42, and the lower side of the fixed plate 43 is connected to the clamping block 45 through the support column 44.
[0049] like Figure 3 As shown, a disc 61 is slidably connected to the surface of the extension rod 42. The upper surface of the disc 61 is slidably connected to the fixed wheel 47, and the lower surface of the disc 61 is slidably connected to the fixed plate 43. The disc 61 and the fixed plate 43 are provided with clearance holes 62. The extension rod 42 passes through two sets of clearance holes 62, and the clearance holes 62 are used for the free movement of the extension rod 42.
[0050] In this embodiment, when clamping the C-shaped steel, when one set of sliding rods 23 slides downward, the sliding rods 23 will drive the extension rod 42 and the fixing plate 43 to move downward. The fixing plate 43 will drive the clamping blocks 45 to move downward through the support column 44 until the two sets of clamping blocks 45 contact the side of the C-shaped steel, thus achieving initial fixation of the C-shaped steel. As the sliding rods 23 continue to descend, the clamping blocks 45 will push the support column 44 upward under the action of the C-shaped steel. The support column 44 will push the fixing wheel 47 upward through the fixing plate 43 and the disc 61. The fixing wheel 47 will push the spring column 46 to slide upward on the fixing frame 41. When the fixing wheel 47 slides, it will compress the compression spring 48. Thus, under the action of the rebound force of the compression spring 48, the four sets of clamping blocks 45 can tightly fit the surface of the C-shaped steel from both sides, enhancing the clamping force of the C-shaped steel and improving the stability and fixation effect of the C-shaped steel during the welding process.
[0051] When clamping the J-shaped steel, when one set of sliding rods 23 slides downward, the four sets of clamping blocks 45 connected to it will also move downward simultaneously, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown. Because the flange ends of the J-shaped steel are bent upward to form a rolled edge structure, during the downward pressing process, two sets of clamping blocks 45 on one side will first contact the rolled edge of the J-shaped steel. At the moment of contact, the rolled edge generates a reaction force on the clamping block 45, pushing the corresponding support column 44 to move upward, thereby causing the fixing plate 43 to tilt.
[0052] The tilting of the fixed plate 43 causes the disc 61 to deflect synchronously. The deflected disc 61 further applies an upward compressive force to the fixed wheel 47 on the same side, causing the fixed wheel 47 to push the spring column 46 to slide upward along the fixed frame 41. During this process, the fixed wheel 47 compresses the corresponding compression spring 48, forming an elastic buffer.
[0053] As the sliding rod 23 continues to move downwards, the two sets of clamping blocks 45 on the other side gradually contact the upper surface of the J-shaped steel, ultimately achieving synchronous clamping at four points. Even with some irregularity in the shape of the J-shaped steel, the four sets of clamping blocks 45 can still fit tightly against its surface under the action of the elastic structure, applying clamping force evenly, thereby significantly enhancing the stability of clamping and the structural fixation effect during welding. This design allows the clamping unit 4 to adapt to different models of forklift mast steel, effectively improving the versatility and applicability of the welding deformation control fixture.
[0054] In one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 6 , 7 As shown in Figures 8 and 9, the automatic clamping unit 7 includes:
[0055] L-shaped frame 71 is fixed on the body 1, and at least two sets of rotating shafts 72 are rotatably connected inside, with ratchet wheels 11 fixed on the surface of the rotating shafts 72.
[0056] The hydraulic cylinder 73 is fixed to the inner wall of the L-shaped frame 71. The hydraulic cylinder 73 has two sets of hydraulic oil grooves 74 inside, and the two sets of hydraulic oil grooves 74 are connected by a flow channel 75.
[0057] A sliding plug 78 is slidably connected inside a hydraulic oil groove 74, and the sliding plug 78 and the inner wall of the hydraulic oil groove 74 are connected by a spring 79.
[0058] The rotating frame 76 is fixed on the rotating shaft 72. The two ends of the rotating frame 76 are respectively connected to the arc-shaped frame 77, and the ends of the two sets of arc-shaped frames 77 are fixedly connected to the sliding plug 78.
[0059] In this embodiment, when welding the forklift mast steel, such as Figure 1 As shown, the forklift mast steel slides along the ratchet wheel 11 into the machine body 1. Due to the structural characteristics of the ratchet wheel 11, the forklift mast steel can slide along the ratchet wheel 11. When the forklift mast steel slides in the opposite direction, the forklift mast steel will be jammed under the action of the two sets of ratchet wheels 11, thereby restricting the movement of the forklift mast steel and improving the stability of the forklift mast steel.
[0060] like Figure 8 As shown, when the forklift mast steel slides along the ratchet wheel 11 into the machine body 1, the ratchet wheel 11 will drive the rotating shaft 72 to rotate on the L-shaped frame 71 under the action of both sides of the forklift mast steel. The rotating shaft 72 will drive the arc frame 77 to rotate synchronously through the rotating frame 76. As a result, the arc frame 77 will drive its two sets of sliding plugs 78 to slide inside the hydraulic oil groove 74. When the sliding plugs 78 slide, they will squeeze the hydraulic oil inside one set of hydraulic oil grooves 74 into the other set of hydraulic oil grooves 74 through the flow channel 75. At the same time, the sliding plugs 78 will compress the spring 79.
[0061] When the forklift mast steel slides to the designated position, under the elastic force of spring 79, the sliding plug 78 slides in the opposite direction within the hydraulic oil groove 74. The arc-shaped frame 77 drives the rotating shaft 72 to rotate in the opposite direction via the rotating frame 76. This causes the rotating shaft 72 to reset the ratchet wheel 11, ensuring that the ratchet wheel 11 makes tight contact with the surface of the forklift mast steel. During welding of the forklift mast steel...
[0062] On the one hand, due to the structural characteristics of the ratchet wheel 11, the forklift mast steel is locked by the ratchet wheel 11, restricting the movement of the forklift mast steel. On the other hand, when the forklift mast steel has a slight tendency to reverse displacement due to thermal stress or external force during the welding process, it will try to push the ratchet wheel 11 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the rotating shaft 72, rotating frame 76 and arc frame 77 to work together, causing the sliding plug 78 on one side to squeeze the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic oil groove 74. However, due to the large flow resistance of the hydraulic oil in the flow channel 75, the hydraulic oil cannot complete the rapid distribution between the two hydraulic oil grooves 74 in time through the flow channel 75, forming an instantaneous hydraulic locking effect, which hinders the displacement of the sliding plug 78, and thus restricts the reverse rotation of the ratchet wheel 11.
[0063] The ratchet wheel 11, with its dual function of locking and hydraulic damping, secures the forklift mast steel frame through both structural limiting and dynamic buffering. The ratchet wheel 11 ensures basic restriction of reverse displacement, while the hydraulic damping absorbs minor vibrations and displacement impacts generated during welding, preventing localized wear caused by hard contact between the ratchet wheel 11 and the forklift mast steel frame surface, and further suppressing minor vibrations of the forklift mast steel frame.
[0064] Furthermore, during the flow of hydraulic oil within the flow channel 75, some energy is consumed through friction with the inner wall of the flow channel 75 and internal friction between hydraulic oil molecules. This converts the vibrational kinetic energy of the forklift mast steel into heat energy and dissipates it, further weakening vibration transmission and providing a stable working environment for welding. This dual locking mechanism not only improves the positioning accuracy of the forklift mast steel during the welding process but also reduces the risk of welding defects caused by steel swaying, ensuring the quality and strength of the welded joint.
[0065] In one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, a cooling unit 5 is installed on the clamping unit 4. The cooling unit 5 is used to cool the clamping block 45. The cooling unit 5 includes:
[0066] A fixed cylinder 51 is connected to the lower side of the fixed frame 41, and a sliding piston 52 is sealed inside. An air inlet pipe 511 and an exhaust pipe 512 are respectively connected to the two sides of the fixed cylinder 51. Both the air inlet pipe 511 and the exhaust pipe 512 are connected to the fixed cylinder 51 through a one-way valve.
[0067] An elastic element 53 is connected between the piston 52 and the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 51. The elastic element 53 is a spring.
[0068] The support rod 54 is fixed to the lower side of the piston 52, and the end is connected to the clamp 55.
[0069] In this embodiment, as the fixing frame 41 descends, the fixing cylinder 51 moves downward accordingly, causing the support rod 54 to slide downward via the piston 52 inside. The support rod 54 then causes the clamping plate 55 at its end to descend synchronously until the clamping plate 55 contacts the upper surface of the C-shaped or J-shaped steel. Under the action of the forklift mast steel, the clamping plate 55, through the support rod 54, causes the piston 52 to slide upward inside the fixing cylinder 51. During this sliding motion, the piston 52 compresses the elastic element 53. Under the rebound force of the elastic element 53, the clamping plate 55 can tightly conform to the upper side of the forklift mast steel. As the piston 52 moves upward, the space between its top and the inner wall of the fixing cylinder 51 gradually decreases, and the internal gas is discharged through the exhaust pipe 512. During the exhaust process, the airflow passes over the surface of the clamping block 45, carrying away the accumulated heat and achieving rapid cooling, which helps extend the service life of the clamping block 45.
[0070] The working principle of this invention is as follows: During welding of the forklift mast steel, it slides into the machine body 1 along the direction of the ratchet wheel 11. The ratchet wheel 11 structure restricts its reverse sliding, achieving basic locking and positioning. At the same time, the sliding of the steel will drive the rotating shaft 72 and the arc frame 77 to work together, causing the sliding plug 78 to squeeze the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic oil groove 74 and compress the spring 79. After the forklift mast steel is in place, the spring 79 returns to its original position, allowing the ratchet wheel 11 to tightly fit against the surface of the steel. During welding, on the one hand, the ratchet wheel 11 locks and restricts the movement of the steel; on the other hand, if the forklift mast steel has a slight tendency to reverse displacement, the hydraulic oil has high flow resistance in the flow channel 75, forming an instantaneous hydraulic lock, thus fixing the forklift mast steel. It can also absorb small vibrations and consume vibration energy, improving the welding positioning accuracy.
