[0025] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] This invention provides an overall structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of a movable clamping fixture and a seat surround welding device containing the fixture, comprising: Please see Figures 1-6 The present invention provides a technical solution: See also Figure 1 Figure 6 As shown, a movable clamping fixture includes a device body 1 and a support base 22 fixedly connected to the inside of the device body 1 by bolts. It also includes: a limiting plate 31 disposed on the inner wall of the device body 1; a cleaning roller 343 disposed above the limiting plate 31; a grinding block 355 disposed on one side of the cleaning roller 343; and a clamping assembly 3 disposed inside the device body 1 for driving the cleaning roller 343 to move and simultaneously driving the grinding block to move. This facilitates the use of the threaded rod 341 to drive the cleaning roller 343 to move for cleaning. After welding, the cross block 354 is slidably connected to the drive rod 352 to grind the welded material.

[0027] See also Figure 2 Figure 3 As shown, the clamping assembly 3 also includes a clamping rod 334. The side wall of the clamping rod 334 is movably connected to a clamping plate 332 via a bearing. The side wall of the clamping plate 332 is movably connected to a clamping strip 331 via a bearing. One side of the clamping strip 331 is movably connected to a slider 33 via a bearing. The side wall of the clamping plate 332 is movably connected to a locking block 333 via a bearing. This facilitates driving the slider 33 to achieve the displacement of the clamping strip 331, thereby clamping the plastic part to be welded.

[0028] See also Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple clamping rods 334, clamping strips 331 and clamping plates 332. The clamping rods 334, clamping strips 331 and clamping plates 332 are symmetrically distributed, which facilitates the opposite clamping of plastic parts.

[0029] See also Figure 2 Figure 3 As shown, a groove 32 is provided at the bottom of the limiting plate 31, the slider 33 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove 32, and the locking block 333 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove 32 by bolts, thereby facilitating the stability of the slider 33 during the displacement process.

[0030] See also Figure 2 Figure 4 As shown, a protruding plate 321 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the limiting plate 31 by bolts. A cross plate 322 is coaxially connected to the side wall of the protruding plate 321. A sliding rod 323 is sleeved on the surface of the cross plate 322. The sliding rod 323 is inserted into the inner wall of the slider 33, thereby facilitating the rotation of the slider 33 by using the sliding rod 323, thereby realizing the adjustment of the clamping distance.

[0031] See also Figure 2As shown in Figure 5, the top of the limiting plate 31 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 34 by bolts. The inner wall of the mounting base 34 is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 341 by bolts. The outer circumference of the threaded rod 341 is threadedly connected to the moving block 342. The side wall of the moving block 342 is fixedly connected to the cleaning roller 343 by bolts. This facilitates the cleaning roller 343 to clean the surface dust of the clamped plastic part and reduce interference with subsequent welding.

[0032] See also Figure 2 Figure 5 As shown, the top of the limiting plate 31 is fixedly connected to the limiting seat 35 by bolts. The side wall of the limiting seat 35 is provided with a groove 346. The side wall of the cleaning roller 343 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 344 by bolts. The inner wall of the groove 346 is welded with a spring 345. The side wall of the mounting plate 344 abuts against the spring 345. This makes it convenient to clean the body of the cleaning roller 343 by the elastic force of the spring 345 after the cleaning roller 343 has finished cleaning, thereby reducing interference with subsequent cleaning.

[0033] See also Figure 2 Figure 6 As shown, the inner wall of the limiting seat 35 is provided with a transverse groove 351. The inner wall of the transverse groove 351 is fixedly connected to the drive rod 352 by bolts. The outer circumferential wall of the drive rod 352 is provided with an annular groove 353. A transverse block 354 is movably sleeved on the outer circumferential wall of the drive rod 352. The bottom of the transverse block 354 is fixedly connected to the grinding block 355 by bolts, which facilitates the reciprocating translation of the grinding block 355, so that the plastic part is fully ground.

[0034] See also Figure 6 As shown, a horizontal plate 356 is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting seat 35 by bolts. A square groove 357 is provided inside the horizontal plate 356. The horizontal block 354 is movably sleeved on the inner wall of the square groove 357, which facilitates the back-and-forth movement of the grinding block 355 on the top of the clamped plastic part, so that the plastic part can be fully ground.

[0035] See also Figure 2 As shown, a support base 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 21 by bolts. A support rod 23 is movably connected to the inner wall of the support base 22 by bearings. A fixing rod 24 is movably connected to one end of the support rod 23 by bearings. A fixing plate 25 is movably connected to one end of the fixing rod 24 by bearings, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the height and position of the entire device.

[0036] See also Figure 2 Figure 4 As shown, the side wall of the fixed plate 25 is fixedly connected to the motor 2 by bolts. The output shaft of the motor 2 is inserted into the cross plate 322, which facilitates the use of the motor to drive the slide bar 323 to rotate, thereby driving subsequent operations.

[0037] This type of movable clamping fixture is installed inside the seat surround welding equipment.

[0038] In addition, the circuits, electronic components and modules involved in this invention are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need not be elaborated upon. The content protected by this invention does not involve any improvement to the internal structure and method.

[0039] Combination Figures 1-6 The following is a detailed description of the use of a movable clamping fixture and a seat surround welding device containing the fixture, as described in this embodiment: 1. In actual use, the operator moves the device to a suitable position and, according to the size of the plastic part and the welding operation requirements, adjusts the relative angle and length of the support rod 23 and the fixed rod 24 to adjust the height and horizontal position of the entire device, so that the clamping component 3, the cleaning roller 343 and the grinding block 355 are all aligned with the position of the plastic part to be processed. After adjustment, the motor 2 is started. The output shaft of the motor 2 drives the cross plate 322 to rotate. The cross plate 322 drives the sliding rod 323 sleeved on the surface to rotate. The sliding rod 323 is linked to the slider 33 inserted into its inner wall, so that the slider 33 slides smoothly in the groove 32 at the bottom of the limiting plate 31 (the locking block 333 limits the slider 33 to avoid...). (Without offset) When the slider 33 slides, it drives the clamping strip 331 connected to it via the bearing to move. The clamping strip 331 is linked with the clamping plate 332 and the clamping rod 334. Since the clamping rod 334, clamping strip 331 and clamping plate 332 are symmetrically distributed, the clamping strips 331 on both sides move synchronously in opposite directions until they tightly clamp the plastic part to be welded. After clamping is completed, the motor 2 pauses to maintain the clamping state and starts the threaded rod 341. The rotation of the threaded rod 341 drives the moving block 342 on its outer circumference to move. The moving block 342 drives the cleaning roller 343 fixed on the side wall to move synchronously. The cleaning roller 343 rotates during the displacement, thereby cleaning the surface of the clamped plastic part of dust and impurities to ensure the surface of the plastic part is clean. The surface is clean, reducing interference in subsequent welding processes. After cleaning, the device moves the clamped plastic part to a suitable position for welding. At this time, the moving block 342 drives the cleaning roller 343 to reset. As a result, the mounting plate 344 on the side wall of the cleaning roller 343 presses the spring 345 in the groove 346 of the limiting seat 35. The elastic force of the spring 345 reacts to the mounting plate 344, thereby cleaning the dust attached to the surface of the cleaning roller 343, realizing the self-cleaning of the cleaning roller 343 and avoiding affecting subsequent cleaning operations. After the plastic part is welded, the drive rod 352 is activated. When the drive rod 352 rotates, the annular groove 353 on its outer circumference drives the movable sleeved cross block 354 along the drive rod. 352 moves axially in a reciprocating translational motion, while the horizontal block 354 slides in the square groove 357 of the horizontal plate 356, limiting the displacement trajectory of the grinding block 355. This causes the grinding block 355 at the bottom of the horizontal block 354 to move back and forth on the top of the clamped plastic part, thoroughly grinding the surface of the welded plastic part to ensure that the weld joint is flat and meets the processing requirements. After the overall grinding is completed, the drive rod 352 and threaded rod 341 are turned off, and the motor 2 is restarted to drive the slider 33 to slide in the reverse direction, causing the clamping bar 331 and clamping plate 332 to reset, releasing the clamping of the plastic part, and taking out the processed plastic part. Then the motor 2 is turned off, and all components of the device are reset to complete one complete processing operation.

In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the disclosed embodiments can be combined with each other in any manner.
