In order to prevent such incidents from happening, first, the workpiece is placed on the machine body 1, and the two sets of clamping assemblies 6 on the machine body 1 are used to clamp and tighten it. After tightening, the welding work can be started. When the angle of the workpiece needs to be rotated, the staff needs to drive the meshing block 82 in the meshing assembly 8 to move. When the meshing block 82 moves, it will drive the rotating disk 71 to move through the turntable 83 on the top. During the movement, the tooth groove 74 on the side wall of the rotating disk 71 is engaged with the driving gear 53 on the support plate 5. The meshing connection drives the rotating shaft 52 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 52 rotates, it will drive the driving gear 53 to rotate.

When in contact, the engagement block 82 continues to move, and the card block 94 will be squeezed into the card box 9 and the card spring 93 will be squeezed at the same time. When the rotating disk 71 is connected, the card block 94 will pop out into the card groove 84 provided on the side wall of the engagement block 82 through the card spring 93 to ensure that the engagement block 84 below the rotating disk 71 is engaged when the rotating disk 71 rotates. 2 is kept in a fixed state, and while the clamping block 94 is clamped into the clamping groove 84, the driving gear 53 is also meshed into the tooth groove 74 on the inside of the rotating disk 71, and the rotating disk 71 can be driven to rotate. When the welding work is completed, when it is necessary to disengage the meshing block 82 from the clamping block 94, the staff can pull the pull rod 92 to pull the clamping block 94 back into the clamping box 9, and then the staff drives the rotating disk 71 to move so that the meshing block 82 is disengaged, and when the disengagement is disengaged, the rotating disk 71 and the driving gear 53 are also disengaged.

After tightening, the welding work can be started. When the angle of the workpiece needs to be rotated, the staff needs to drive the meshing block 82 in the meshing component 8 to move. When the meshing block 82 moves, it will drive the rotating disk 71 to move through the top turntable 83. During the movement, the tooth groove 74 on the side wall of the rotating disk 71 is meshed and connected with the driving gear 53 on the support plate 5. After the meshing connection, the rotating shaft 52 is driven to rotate. When the rotating shaft 52 rotates, it will drive the driving gear 53 to rotate. The driving gear During the rotation of the wheel 53, the driving gear 53 can be attached to the side wall of the rotating disk 71 and drive the rotating disk 71 to rotate through the meshing connection between the teeth and the tooth grooves 74. During the rotation, the rotation arc of the rotating disk 71 is consistent with the driving gear 53. The center point of rotation is the turntable 83 under the middle plate 73. The workpiece can be driven to adjust the angle during rotation. Two groups of rotating disks 71 are provided. According to the process requirements, during actual use, one group of rotating disks 71 can be driven to mesh with the driving gear 53. In this way, the two groups of workpieces can be presented at different angles to facilitate welding and realize the diversification of the device.

[0039] Among them, the engagement block 82 is fixed by the snap-fit ​​box 9 to prevent the engagement block 82 from moving during rotation. The snap-fit ​​box 9 and other components are set on the side wall of the engagement frame 81. When the moving engagement block 82 drives the rotating disk 71 to connect, the side wall of the engagement block 82 will contact the snap-fit ​​block 94 in the snap-fit ​​box 9. When in contact, the engagement block 82 continues to move, and when moving, the snap-fit ​​block 94 will be squeezed into the snap-fit ​​box 9, and the snap-fit ​​spring 93 will be squeezed at the same time. When the rotating disk 71 is connected, the snap-fit ​​block 94 is ejected into the snap-fit ​​groove 84 opened on the side wall of the engagement block 82 through the snap-fit ​​spring 93 to ensure that the engagement block 82 is in a stable state. When the rotating disk 71 rotates, the engaging block 82 below remains in a fixed state, and when the clamping block 94 is clamped into the clamping groove 84, the driving gear 53 is also engaged with the tooth groove 74 on the inside of the rotating disk 71, and the rotating disk 71 can be driven to rotate. When the welding work is completed, when it is necessary to disengage the engaging block 82 and the clamping block 94, the staff can pull the pull rod 92 to pull the clamping block 94 back into the clamping box 9, and then the staff drives the rotating disk 71 to move to disengage the engaging block 82. When disengaging, the rotating disk 71 and the driving gear 53 are also disengaged.
