[0038] See also Figures 1 to 10 , this embodiment provides a welding positioning mechanism 100, which includes:

[0039] Support base 1,

[0040] A welding electrode assembly 2, wherein the welding electrode assembly 2 is connected to the supporting base 1;

[0041] a left positioning assembly 3, wherein the left positioning assembly 3 is connected to the support base 1 and is located on one side of the welding electrode assembly 2; and

[0042] a right positioning assembly 4, the right positioning assembly 4 being connected to the support base 1 and being located at the other side of the welding electrode assembly 2 relative to the left positioning assembly 3;

[0043] Among them, the left positioning component 3 and the right positioning component 4 have the same structure and are symmetrically arranged with the welding electrode assembly 2. When the weld is positioned for welding, the left positioning component 3 and the right positioning component 4 move laterally to approach the electrode end of the welding electrode assembly 2 to clamp and position the weld.

[0044] Please refer again Figures 3 to 10The left positioning assembly 3 and the right positioning assembly 4 have the same structure. Taking the left positioning assembly 3 as an example, it includes: a support plate 31, a driving device 33 connected to the support plate 31, a first guide unit 32, a second guide unit 34 and a movable positioning unit; the first guide unit 32, the second guide unit 34 and the movable positioning unit are linearly distributed in sequence toward the welding electrode assembly 2, the driving device 33 has a wedge 332, the wedge 332 has a plane 3322 and an inclined surface 3321, and the inclined surface 3321 is arranged on the side of the wedge 332 opposite to the plane 3322. Among them, the plane 3322 abuts against the first guide unit 32, the inclined surface 3321 abuts against the second guide unit 34, and the movable positioning unit is connected to the second guide unit 34; the driving device 33 drives the wedge 332 to telescopically move, so that the inclined surface 3321 drives the second guide unit 34 abutting against it to move toward the direction of the welding electrode assembly 2, thereby synchronously driving the movable positioning unit to clamp or loosen the welding part.

[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, the first guide unit 32 abuts against the plane 3322 of the wedge 332, and the drive device 33 drives the wedge 332 to move in a straight line. Therefore, the first guide unit 32 acts to abut against and limit the plane 3322 of the wedge 332, so that the wedge 332 can only move parallel to the telescopic direction of the drive device 33. The second guide unit 34 abuts against the inclined surface 3322 of the wedge 332, and when the wedge 332 moves, the second guide unit 34 is driven to move perpendicular to the moving direction of the drive device 33, thereby driving the mobile positioning unit to clamp and position the weldment. Since the left positioning assembly 3 adopts a combined transmission structure of the first guide unit 32, the second guide unit 34, the mobile positioning unit and the drive device 33, the drive device 33 does not need to use a large-sized cylinder, and its operation is more stable and reliable, with a longer service life and lower processing and maintenance costs.

[0046] In one embodiment, each of the first guide unit 32 and the second guide unit 34 is provided with a roller 343, and the inclined surface 3321 and the plane 3322 are respectively connected to the wheel surface of the roller 343. The inclined surface 3321 and the plane 3322 with which the roller 343 provided on the first guide unit 32 and the second guide unit 34 slide in contact can reduce friction resistance, making the operation smoother and less abrasive.

[0047] When the wedge-shaped member 332 is controlled by the driving device 33 to telescopically move, the plane 3322 always remains perpendicular to the moving direction of the mobile positioning unit. Under this angle setting, the resistance is minimal and the transmission distance is maximized.

[0048] In this embodiment, the first guide unit 32 and the second guide unit 34 have the same structure. Taking the second guide unit 34 as an example, it includes: a connecting member 341, a rotating shaft 342 connected to the connecting member 341, and a roller 343 rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 342, and the connecting member 341 is connected to the support plate 31.

[0049] The connecting member 341 is a C-shaped member, with an opening 3411 on one side, the rotating shaft 342 is longitudinally connected to the opening, and the roller 343 is passed through the rotating shaft 342, so its rolling surface is in the vertical direction. The connecting member 341 is connected to the top surface of the support plate 31 by screws.

[0050] In order to reduce the friction between the roller 343 and the rotating shaft 342 , at least one bearing 344 is sleeved between the roller 343 and the rotating shaft 342 .

[0051] The mobile positioning unit includes: a guide unit 35 and a positioning unit 36. The guide unit 35 has a guide structure. The positioning unit 36 ​​is inserted into the guide structure, and the end of the guide unit 35 is connected to the second guide unit 34. When the second guide unit 34 is moved by force, it drives the positioning unit 36 ​​to move back and forth along the guide structure of the guide unit 35.

[0052] The guide unit 35 includes: a guide seat 351 and a sealing plate 352. The guide seat 351 is provided with a guide groove 3511. The sealing plate 352 is connected to the opening of the guide groove 3511 to form a guide structure with front and rear openings.

[0053] Among them, at least one connecting hole 3512 is also provided on the guide seat 351 of the guide unit 35, and an elastic member 38 is inserted into the connecting hole 3512. One end of the elastic member 38 abuts against the second guide unit 34, so as to provide buffering between the second guide unit 34 and the movable positioning unit and drive the positioning unit 36 ​​to reset after releasing the welding part.

[0054] like Figure 8 As shown, the positioning unit 36 ​​includes: a telescopic member 364, a connection seat 361 connected to the end of the telescopic member 364, a positioning terminal 363 fixed on the connection seat 361, and the guide structure is a guide hole, and the telescopic member 364 is inserted into the guide hole. Specifically, a connection groove is provided on the connection seat 361, and the rear end portion of the positioning terminal 363 is plugged into the connection groove and is pressed and locked by a locking plate 362 connected to the top of the connection groove.

[0055] like Figure 7As shown, the driving device 33 includes a driving cylinder 331 , which is connected to the support plate 31 through a mounting plate 333 , and a wedge 332 is connected to the telescopic end of the driving cylinder 331 .

[0056] Please refer again Fig.10 The support base is also provided with an adjusting member 37, which includes: a connecting arm 371 and an elastic member 372 passing through the connecting arm 371, one end of the elastic member 372 abuts against the connecting seat 361, and when the telescopic member 364 is extended, its front end is supported by the adjusting member 37.

[0057] The welding positioning mechanism of this embodiment positions the weldment by means of a left positioning assembly and a right positioning assembly that are identical in structure and symmetrically arranged. The positioning assembly uses a small cylinder to drive a wedge, and the wedge drives the mobile positioning unit to move closer to or away from the welding electrode, thereby realizing the replacement of the large cylinder with the small cylinder and ensuring reliable positioning and clamping of large-sized workpieces. The processing and maintenance costs are lower, and the telescopic positioning action is more stable and reliable.

[0058] The above examples are only used to further illustrate the technical content of the utility model, so that readers can understand it more easily, but it does not mean that the implementation methods of the utility model are limited to this. Any technical extension or re-creation made based on the utility model is protected by the utility model. The protection scope of the utility model shall be based on the claims.
