Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of car body welding of rail transportation, in particular to a bridge-type workstation for welding a train frame. Background Art

[0002] When welding rail transit car bodies, a bridge-type workstation is generally used to move outside the car body and adjust the processing position, so that the processing of longer car bodies can be achieved. For example, a bridge-type hanging robot arc welding workstation with application number CN202021655811.2 disclosed on January 1, 2021 controls the motor through PLC, so that the gantry can stay at any position of the stroke with an accuracy of 0.05mm. When the robot obtains the position of the weld and its own position through PLC, it runs a specific program to complete the welding, which can accurately complete the welding of extra-long parts in one time and ensure millimeter-level accuracy. The loading can be done by a crane, and after positioning by a fixture, the welding can be completed at a speed of 10mm / s, reducing the workload of workers.

[0003] The installation of the bridge workstation is on both sides of the guide rails, and the motor is used to synchronize the gear rack meshing on the two guide rails. The drive is generally completed by a single motor drive. Because the span of the workstation is very wide, the single side of the motor reducer will be subjected to a relatively large torque. In the later stage, it is easy to cause the gear rack to be inaccurate due to the single-sided drive, which is easy to get stuck and cause the final robot trajectory to deviate. Some of them adopt a dual-motor structure. When in use, the rack gear is directly exposed to the outside, which is easy to be contaminated or enter particulate impurities, causing the workstation to move bumpy or vibrate, thereby affecting the subsequent operation stability of the workstation. Utility Model Content

Because the span of the workstation is very wide, one side of the motor reducer will be subjected to a relatively large torque, and it is easy to appear that the gear and rack are not accurately engaged due to the one-sided drive in the later stage, and it is easy to get stuck, resulting in deviations in the final robot trajectory. Some of them adopt a dual-motor structure, and their rack and gear are directly exposed to the outside when in use, which is easy to be contaminated or enter particulate impurities in the future, resulting in bumps or vibrations when the workstation moves.

[0014] To further optimize the technical solution, the gear protection mechanism includes a protection belt, a reel, a torsion spring and a traction plate;

[0015] A protective strip is arranged above the support rail to cover the opening of the support rail;

[0016] A reel is rotatably mounted on the end of the support rail, and the end of the protective belt is wound around the surface of the reel;

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0022] (1) The train frame welding bridge workstation uses a dual-point motor drive mechanism, one active and one auxiliary.

[0026] (5) The train frame welding bridge workstation can lock the connection between the docking block and the docking groove through the limit block to complete the installation of the protective belt. When the tooth plate needs to be inspected or lubricated later, the connection between the traction plate and the driving base can be released by releasing the connection between the docking block and the docking groove, so that the reel can retract the protective belt and expose the tooth plate, which is convenient for inspection and other maintenance.
