The subframe is not a complete frame, but a bracket that supports the front and rear axles and suspension, so that the axles and suspension are connected to the "main frame" through it, and is customarily called the "subframe". The function of the subframe is to block vibration and noise and reduce their direct entry into the car compartment, so it mostly appears in luxury cars and off-road vehicles. Some cars also install subframes for the engine, and the subframe needs to be fixed on the workbench by a clamp during welding to prevent the subframe from moving during welding, resulting in errors in the welding position and affecting the processing accuracy of the subframe.
[0003] The existing sub-frame welding fixture usually uses a cylinder to drive a pressure block to clamp the four corners of the frame for positioning. This clamping and positioning method only exerts a longitudinal pressure on the sub-frame, and the clamping effect is not good. Utility Model Content

[0022] A first air hole 9 is formed at the end of the cylinder 3 , and the first piston 6 discharges the air on its right side through the first air hole 9 when sliding, so as to ensure the air pressure balance in the air groove 5 .
[0023] The horizontal clamping assembly includes a fixing seat 10 fixedly arranged on the outer wall of the supporting seat 2. The fixing seat 10 is an L-shaped structure. Two groups of inner grooves 11 are symmetrically opened inside the fixing seat 10, and an air passage 12 connected with the two groups of inner grooves 11 is opened inside the fixing seat 10. A hose 13 is connected between the air passage 12 and the inner groove 11. An elastic sliding structure is arranged inside the inner groove 11. The subframe can be clamped in the horizontal direction through the horizontal clamping assembly.
[0024] The elastic sliding structure includes a second piston 14 that slides with the inner groove 11, and the side wall of the second piston 14 is fixedly connected to a second movable rod 15 that penetrates the outer wall of the fixed seat 10, and the end of the second movable rod 15 is fixedly connected to a first clamping block 16. A second spring 18 is fixedly connected to the outside of the second movable rod 15 between the second piston 14 and the inner groove 11. Under the filling pressure of the gas, the second piston 14 slides in the inner groove 11 and squeezes the second spring 18. At the same time, the second piston 14 drives the second movable rod 15 to slide, and the second movable rod 15 drives the first clamping block 16 to move, so that the two groups of first clamping blocks 16 on the same clamping mechanism adaptively contact the edge of the sub-frame.
[0025] A first rubber pad 17 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the first clamping block 16, and a second air hole 19 communicating with the inner groove 11 is opened on the outer wall of the fixing seat 10. When the second piston 14 slides, the air on its right side is discharged through the second air hole 19 to ensure the air pressure balance in the inner groove 11. The first clamping block 16 avoids surface scratches when clamping the sub-frame through the first rubber pad 17 on its outer wall.
[0026] The longitudinal clamping assembly includes a fixing plate 20 fixedly arranged on the outer wall of the support seat 2 and located above the fixing seat 10, and a movable column 21 slidably matched therewith is arranged at the end of the fixing plate 20, and a second clamping block 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable column 21, and the end of the first movable rod 7 is located on the outer side of the movable column 21 and is symmetrically fixedly connected with two groups of guide rods 24, and guide grooves 25 are provided inside the two groups of guide rods 24, and guide columns 26 slidably matched with the guide grooves 25 are respectively fixed on the outer wall of the movable column 21, and the sub-frame can be longitudinally clamped and positioned by the longitudinal clamping assembly.
[0027] A second rubber pad 23 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the second clamping block 22, and the guide rods 24 are all obliquely arranged at the ends of the first movable rod 7. The second clamping block 22 avoids surface scratches when the sub-frame is pressed by the second rubber pad 23 on its outer wall, and since the guide rod 24 is obliquely arranged, the guide groove 25 in the guide rod 24 pushes the guide column 26, so that the movable column 21 slides longitudinally in the fixed plate 20.
[0028] Working principle: When using the sub-frame welding fixture, first, place the sub-frame on the bottom plate 1 and between the clamping mechanisms, and start the air pump 4 on the clamping mechanism. The air pump 4 inflates the air tank 5. Since the elastic force of the first spring 8 is greater than the second spring 18, the gas is first transported to the two sets of inner tanks 11 through the hose 13 and the air channel 12. Under the pressure of the gas, the second piston 14 slides in the inner tank 11 and squeezes the second spring 18. At the same time, the second piston 14 drives the second movable rod 15 to slide. , the second movable rod 15 drives the first clamping block 16 to move, so that the two groups of first clamping blocks 16 on the same clamping mechanism adaptively abut against the edge of the sub-frame, wherein the second piston 14 discharges the air on its right side through the second air hole 19 when sliding, so as to ensure the air pressure balance in the inner groove 11, and the first clamping block 16 avoids surface scratches when clamping the sub-frame through the first rubber pad 17 on its outer wall. After the first clamping blocks 16 on the clamping mechanism abut against the edge of the sub-frame, the sub-frame can be horizontally limited;
[0029] Then, after the first clamping block 16 all hits the edge of the sub-frame and cannot move further, the gas pressure starts to push the first piston 6 to slide in the gas groove 5, and the first piston 6 squeezes the first spring 8, wherein the first piston 6 discharges the air on its right side through the first air hole 9 when sliding, to ensure the gas pressure balance in the gas groove 5, and the first piston 6 pushes the first movable rod 7 to move, and the first movable rod 7 drives the guide rod 24 to move horizontally. Since the guide rod 24 is inclined, the guide groove 25 in the guide rod 24 pushes the guide column 26, so that the movable column 21 slides longitudinally in the fixed plate 20, and passes through the bottom of the movable column 21. The second clamping block 22 presses the top of the sub-frame, and the second clamping block 22 avoids surface scratches when pressing the sub-frame through the second rubber pad 23 on the outer wall. When the second clamping blocks 22 on the clamping mechanism are all pressed on the top of the sub-frame, the air pump 4 is turned off. At this time, the clamping mechanism not only presses and positions the top of the sub-frame, but also clamps and positions the sub-frame in the horizontal direction, thereby improving the clamping stability of the clamp. Otherwise, the air pump 4 is turned on to evacuate air. Under the action of the first spring 8 and the second spring 18, the first clamping block 16 and the second clamping block 22 are moved and reset, and the positioned sub-frame can be disassembled.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
