Rotating the driving screw 10 can drive the lifting plate 9 to move up and down, and the height of the frequency adjustment welding machine 4 can be adjusted, so that the distance between the induction coil 8 and the cover plate 7 can be adjusted, which is helpful for adjustment during annealing heating.

[0030] The lifting plate 9 is provided with a plurality of guide posts 12, which are arranged along the edge of the lifting plate 9. In this embodiment, two guide posts 12 are provided, and are arranged symmetrically with respect to the central axis of the lifting plate 9. In order to smoothly lift the lifting plate 9, the lifting plate 9 is further provided with a guide screw 14, and the lifting plate 9 is threadedly connected to the guide screw 14. When the lifting plate 9 reaches the annealing height, the bottom of the guide screw 14 is pressed against the bottom plate 1, so that the height of the lifting plate 9 can be fixed, and the threaded structure can support the lifting plate 9.
