The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation method.
[0028] The utility model is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0029] See also Figures 1 to 4 The present embodiment discloses a sheet metal welding tool, comprising a movable frame 1, a fixed frame 2, a rotating driving member 3, a clamping member 4 and a rotating positioning device, which can be used for tool clamping of a sheet metal workpiece a to be welded, and can perform flexible and precise angle control during the tool clamping process to meet the angle change requirements of some sheet metal workpieces a during welding.
[0030] The long side direction of the movable frame 1 is defined as the front-to-back direction, and the short side direction of the movable frame 1 is defined as the left-to-right direction.
[0031] The front and rear ends of the movable frame 1 are pivotally connected to a fixed frame 2 through a connecting rod and a bearing. The connecting rod serves as the central axis of rotation of the movable frame 1 relative to the fixed frame 2. The movable frame 1 and the fixed frame 2 are both "U"-shaped structures and form a double-layer structure arranged inside and outside. When in use, a flexible rotating structure can be formed with the help of the internal and external layered structures.
[0032] A rotating drive member 3 is provided on one side of the movable frame 1 in the front-to-back direction. The output end of the rotating drive member 3 passes through the fixed frame 2 from the outside to the inside and is connected to the connecting rod on the movable frame 1, so as to actively control the movable frame 1 to rotate relative to the fixed frame 2. In this embodiment, the rotating drive member 3 specifically adopts a reduction motor, which is connected and fixed to the fixed frame 2 through a mounting seat 31.
[0033] refer to Figure 3 As shown, the movable frame 1 is composed of a first bottom plate 11 and a first side plate 12 to form a "U"-shaped structure. The two first side plates 12 are vertically arranged at both ends of the first bottom plate 11 in the front and rear directions. The bottom of the first side plate 12 is detachably connected to the top surface of the first bottom plate 11 (connected by bolt locking). The first side plate 12 is connected to the above-mentioned connecting rod and bearing member. Therefore, the connection structure between the first side plate 12 and the fixed frame 2 is relatively fixed, and the detachable structural mode between the first bottom plate 11 and the first side plate 12 enables the first bottom plate 11 to be replaced during operation, which is convenient for maintenance and debugging of the equipment.
[0034] Furthermore, a rib plate 13 is provided between the first bottom plate 11 and the first side plate 12, and the rib plate 13 is a "U"-shaped structure, the bottom of the rib plate 13 is connected to the top surface of the first bottom plate 11, and the front and rear side walls of the rib plate 13 are connected to the inner side walls of the two first side plates 12 located at the front and rear sides of the first bottom plate 11. The provision of the rib plate 13 can greatly improve the structural strength of the movable frame 1.
[0035] The first bottom plate 11 is provided with a plurality of first strip holes 14, which are used to connect the clamping member 4 with bolts, and the first strip holes 14 can help flexibly fine-adjust the assembly position of the clamping member 4. In order to make the assembly position of the clamping member 4 on the movable frame 1 easier and more convenient, and to enable quick pre-positioning and installation, the first bottom plate 11 is provided with a plurality of positioning bosses 15 on one side of the first strip holes 14, and the positioning bosses 15 and the first bottom plate 11 are an integrated structure.
[0036] In this embodiment, the fixed frame 2 is composed of a second bottom plate 21 and a second side plate 22 to form a "U"-shaped structure. Two "L"-shaped second side plates 22 are relatively arranged at the two ends of the second bottom plate 21 in the front-rear direction. The bottom of the second side plate 22 is detachably connected to the top surface of the second bottom plate 21 (connected by bolt locking). Specifically, the above-mentioned connecting rod and bearing member are arranged between the first side plate 12 and the second side plate 22. Since the fixed frame 2 and the movable frame 1 are both "U"-shaped structures, they have a relatively wide open structure, so that the rotation space of the movable frame 1 is more relaxed and free, and has a larger travel space.
[0037] In this embodiment, the movable frame 1 is provided with two clamping members 4 spaced apart from each other, and the clamping members 4 serve as a tooling clamping structure adapted to the sheet metal workpiece a. The clamping member 4 has an opening and closing jaw 43 extending to the outer area of the movable frame 1, and the inner side of the opening and closing jaw 43 forms a clamping space adapted to the sheet metal workpiece a. Specifically, the clamping member 4 includes a cylinder 41, and the transmission output end of the cylinder 41 is connected to two opening and closing sliders 42 that can move closer to or away from each other, and the outer end of each opening and closing slider 42 is provided with a clamping jaw 43, and the clamping jaw 43 is vertically arranged to the opening and closing slider 42, so that the clamping opening forms a "U" structure, and the clamping jaw 43 is provided with an abutment member 44 for abutting the sheet metal workpiece a during clamping, and the abutment member 44 is installed on the outer end of the clamping jaw 43 by bolts, and the abutment member 44 is specifically an elastic contact structure made of rubber, which covers the core of the clamping jaw 43. The inner area of the positioning block 47, the abutment 44 and the limiting piece 45 constitute a clamping space, which can limit the front, back, left, right and bottom of the sheet metal workpiece a, and is used for accurate and safe tooling to clamp the sheet metal workpiece a. In order to effectively control the clamping force, a pressure sensor 46 is provided on the inner wall of the abutment 44, and the pressure sensor 46 specifically adopts a pressure sensor.
[0038] Further, combined with Figure 2 As shown, a rotation positioning device is provided between the connecting rod on the movable frame 1 and the fixed frame 2. Specifically, the rotation positioning device includes a follower 5 and a rotation sensor 6. The follower 5 is provided at the outer end of the connecting rod on the movable frame 1. The main body of the follower 5 is a disc structure, and a plurality of second strip holes 52 are provided on the disc structure. The second strip holes 52 are arc-shaped through-hole structures, which enable the assembly angle between the follower 5 and the outer end of the connecting rod to be fine-adjusted. The follower 5 has a signal rod 51 perpendicular to the axial direction of the connecting rod, and the signal rod 51 can rotate with the movable frame 1. The rotation sensor 6 is provided on the outer wall of the fixed frame 2 corresponding to the rotation path of the signal rod 51. The rotation sensor 6 specifically adopts a U-shaped photoelectric sensor. When the signal rod 51 rotates to the detection area, it can trigger an in-position detection signal. It is electrically connected to the rotation drive 3, and can accurately control the tooling angle during welding of the sheet metal workpiece a.
[0039] Furthermore, a guide rail 48 is provided between the clamping jaw 43 and the opening and closing slider 42. The guide rail 48 is parallel to the opening and closing direction of the opening and closing slider 42. The clamping jaw 43 can slide linearly along the guide rail 48 and then be locked and fixed by means of bolts. This allows the assembly position of the clamping jaw 43 to be flexibly adjusted, thereby adjusting the distance between the two clamping jaws 43.
[0040] In order to prevent the sheet metal workpiece a from excessive rotation, the fixed frame 2 is further provided with a travel limit column 23 on one side of the movable frame 1, which is used to control the rotation of the clamping member 4 at a safety threshold angle after the movable frame 1 drives the clamping member 4 to rotate at a large angle.
[0041] In the specific implementation process, the clamping member 4 can stably clamp the sheet metal workpiece a to be welded, and the rotary driving member 3 and the rotary positioning device can accurately adjust the angle of the sheet metal workpiece a after tooling according to actual welding requirements.
[0042] In other embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the two welding tools are used in combination to simultaneously perform welding of multiple groups of sheet metal workpieces a, thereby improving work efficiency.
