[0022] Working principle: The device is installed in the position where the welding robot is adapted to feed the wire. At this time, the external switch of the drive motor 5 is turned on. The output shaft of the drive motor 5 drives the first wire feed wheel 4 to rotate, and the second wire feed wheel 9 is driven to rotate synchronously in the same direction through the sprocket 6 and the chain to complete the feeding of the welding wire 3.

[0023] In order to increase the friction between the welding wire 3 and the first wire feeding wheel 4 and the second wire feeding wheel 9, the two sets of lower pressure wheels 10 move downward at this time, pressing the welding wire 3 on the surface of the first wire feeding wheel 4 and the second wire feeding wheel 9, completing the efficient and smooth wire feeding of the welding wire 3.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment, the transverse section of the limit frame 1 is a "cross" shape, and the longitudinal section of the limit frame 1 is a rectangular shape. At the same time, two groups of limit frames 1 are symmetrically installed at both ends of the wire feeding frame 2, and the welding wire 3 is inserted into the interior of the two groups of limit frames 1.

[0025] The rotating shaft of the first wire feeding wheel 4 is fixedly connected to the driving motor 5, and sprockets 6 are installed on the rotating shafts of the first wire feeding wheel 4 and the second wire feeding wheel 9. At the same time, the first wire feeding wheel 4 and the second wire feeding wheel 9 are driven by the sprocket 6 and the chain.

[0026] By setting the sprocket 6 and the chain, the first wire feeding wheel 4 and the second wire feeding wheel 9 can rotate synchronously.

At the same time, three groups of limiting cylinders 8 are respectively installed on the support frame 7, and the welding wires 3 are inserted into the inside of the three groups of limiting cylinders 8.

[0031] The arrangement of two sets of limit frames 1 and three sets of limit cylinders 8 can ensure that the welding wire 3 is transported horizontally inside the wire feeding frame 2 without tilting. The downward pressing wheel 10 can ensure that the welding wire 3 is in a taut state when being transported, making the wire feeding smoother.

[0032] The pressing force of the lower pressing wheel 10 on the welding wire 3 can be adjusted by the stud 12 and the nut 14.
