[0045] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0046] In the description of the utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, or the positions or positional relationships in which the utility model product is usually placed when in use, and are only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the utility model. In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a tool.

[0048] First of all, the tooling includes a plurality of support components 1 and lifting components, wherein the support component 1 is used to carry the workpiece to be processed, and the support component 1 allows the workpiece to be processed to move at least along the length direction of the tooling, and can also be movable in both the length direction and the width direction, so as to facilitate the workpiece to be processed to be placed on the support component 1, and then adjust the workpiece to be processed to the target position (i.e., the position where the workpiece to be processed undergoes subsequent assembly, welding, etc.); the lifting component is connected to the support component 1, and the lifting component can drive the support component 1 to rise or fall in the vertical direction. It should be noted that too many support components 1 will result in a longer operation time, and too few will make it difficult to adjust to the required curvature of the workpiece to be processed. The number of support components 1 can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to actual needs. In addition, the arrangement of multiple support assemblies 1 is based on the camber requirements of the workpiece to be processed, ensuring that the height of the workpiece to be processed is adjustable in the direction where the camber is required. For large components or box girders formed on three sides, at least the camber requirements along the length direction must be guaranteed, that is, at least multiple support assemblies 1 are arranged along the length direction; in addition, for components with a relatively small length-to-width ratio, the camber requirements in the width direction also need to be considered. In this case, multiple support assemblies 1 need to be arranged along the length direction, and multiple support assemblies 1 need to be designed along the width direction.

[0049] It can be seen that in the tooling provided by the embodiment of the utility model, the lifting assembly can drive the support assembly 1 to rise or fall in the vertical direction, and the height of the support assembly 1 can be adjusted, thereby realizing the adjustment of the height of the workpiece to be processed, and since a plurality of support assemblies 1 are provided, different parts of the workpiece to be processed can be adjusted to different heights, and the problem of bending and deformation of the workpiece to be processed can be solved by pre-arching the workpiece to be processed. At the same time, the structure is simple and easy to operate.

[0050] For specific implementation, see Figure 1 The support assembly 1 includes a support member 11, a base 12 and a rolling member 13, wherein the support member 11 is connected to the lifting assembly; the base 12 is located on the support member 11; the rolling member 13 is rotatably arranged on the base 12, and at least partially protrudes from the top surface of the base 12, so that the rolling member 13 can abut against the bottom plate of the workpiece to be processed. The rolling member 13 can be cylindrical, rugby-shaped or spherical. When it is cylindrical or rugby-shaped, the workpiece to be processed abutting against the rolling member 13 can be moved in one direction; when it is spherical, the workpiece to be processed abutting against the rolling member 13 can be moved in any direction within the plane where its abutting surface is located, but it is not limited to this. The specific structure of the support assembly 1 can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to actual needs. It should be noted that the support member 11 can be an I-beam or a U-shaped steel, as long as it can ensure that there is a connection surface for connecting the base 12 and a connection surface for connecting the lifting assembly, and there is enough operating space when the lifting assembly adjusts its height. The specific structure of the support member 11 can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0051] In a specific implementation, the base 12 extends along the width direction of the tooling, and a plurality of rolling elements 13 are provided on the base 12; or, a plurality of bases 12 are provided along the width direction, and a plurality of rolling elements 13 are provided on each base 12; this is suitable for arching the workpiece along the length direction. It should be noted that when the workpiece needs to be arched in both the length direction and the width direction, one base 12 is provided along the width direction, and one rolling element 13 is provided on the base 12.

[0052] For specific implementation, see Figure 1The lifting assembly includes a mounting platform 21, a connector 22 and a height adjustment member 23, wherein the mounting platform 21 is connected to the support member 11 through the connector 22; the height adjustment member 23 connects the support member 11 and the connector 22, and the height adjustment member 23 can make the support member 11 rise or fall in the vertical direction relative to the connector 22. It should be noted that the height adjustment member 23 can be a bolt with a jacking adjustment nut and a locking nut sleeved in it; it can also be a structure in the form of a telescopic rod connecting a clamping member, but it is not limited to this. As long as the height adjustment member 23 can achieve the height change of the support member 11, the specific structure of the height adjustment member 23 and the lifting assembly can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0053] In specific implementation, the bottom of the support member 11 is provided with a protrusion protruding from the bottom surface, and the surface of the connecting member 22 is provided with a groove adapted to the protrusion, so as to facilitate the positioning and subsequent installation of the support member 11 and the connecting member 22. It should be noted that the structure for facilitating positioning can also be that the bottom surface of the bottom of the support member 11 is provided with a groove, and the surface of the connecting member 22 is provided with a protrusion protruding from the surface and adapted to the groove. The specific structure of the support member 11 and the connecting member 22 cooperating with each other for facilitating positioning can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0054] In a specific implementation, a limit block 24 is provided on the connecting member 22, and the limit block 24 can abut against the connecting member 22, and the limit block 24 can limit the support member 11 at least along the width direction of the workpiece to be processed. The vertical cross-section of the limit block 24 can be rectangular or L-shaped, but is not limited thereto. The specific structure of the limit block 24 can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0055] For specific implementation, see Figure 3 , and also includes a guide assembly 3, which is located on both sides of the tooling in the width direction, and the gap of the guide assembly 3 along the width direction is greater than or equal to the width of the base plate of the workpiece to be processed; the guide assembly 3 includes a column 31 and a reinforcement 32 located at the root of the column 31, and the top of the column 31 protrudes from the top surface of the base plate, which can not only guide the workpiece to be processed to the target position, but also limit its width direction. It should be noted that the guide assembly 3 can also be set on both sides of the tooling in the length direction. Avoid excessive deviation between the position where the workpiece to be processed is placed and the position where it is assembled and welded.

[0056] In specific implementation, along the width direction, the gap at the top of the column 31 is larger than the gap at the bottom of the column 31 to avoid collision between the top of the column 31 and the workpiece when the workpiece begins to be transported between the two columns 31.

[0057] For specific implementation, see Figure 4, also includes a first clamping assembly 4, which is located on both sides of the width direction of the tooling, and the gap between the first clamping assemblies 4 on both sides is used to place the workpiece to be processed; the first clamping assembly 4 includes a fixing member 41, a power push rod 42, an abutment portion 43 and a guide rod 44, wherein the power push rod 42 passes through the fixing member 41; one end of the power push rod 42 close to the gap is connected to the abutment portion 43, and can abut against the side plate of the workpiece to be processed; one end of the guide rod 44 is fixedly connected to the abutment portion 43, and the other end is slidably connected to the fixing member 41. It should be noted that the guide rod 44 and the power push rod 42 are parallel to each other, and the guide rod 44 has a guiding effect on the axial movement of the power push rod 42, and at the same time has a limiting effect on the axial movement of the power push rod 42. When the guide rod 44 moves to the maximum value along the axial direction, the other end of the guide rod 44 is engaged with the fixing member 41 to prevent the guide rod 44 from being separated from the fixing member 41, thereby being able to limit the abutment portion 43.

[0058] In a specific implementation, the first clamping assembly 4 also includes a support portion 45, which is located on the side of the fixing member 41 close to the gap; the support portion 45 includes an abutment plate that can abut against the side plate, and the top end of the abutment plate is bent upward and away from the gap. When the abutment portion 43 in the first clamping assembly 4 has not yet contacted the workpiece to be processed, the support portion 45 can prevent the side plate of the workpiece from tilting too much, and can play a certain supporting role on the side plate. In addition, the top end of the abutment plate is bent upward and away from the gap to avoid scratching the side plate when the side plate contacts the support portion 45.

[0059] In specific implementation, the projection of the abutment portion 43 along the width direction is rectangular or cross-shaped, but not limited to this. The projection of the abutment portion 43 along the width direction can also be circular, elliptical or irregular. The specific shape can be designed by technical personnel in this field according to actual needs.

[0060] In specific implementation, the second clamping assembly 5 is set on both sides along the length direction of the tooling, and the workpiece to be processed is located in the gap between the second clamping assemblies 5 on both sides. During the working process, the workpiece to be processed is placed in the gap, and its position is adjusted in the length direction and then fixed to prevent it from moving in the length direction. Two second clamping assemblies 5 are set to facilitate the adjustment of its position from both ends; or, the second clamping assembly 5 is set at one end along the length direction of the tooling, and the stop assembly 6 is set at the other end. The workpiece to be processed is located in the gap between the second clamping assembly 5 and the stop assembly 6. During the working process, the workpiece to be processed is placed in the gap, and its position is adjusted in the length direction and then fixed to prevent it from moving in the length direction. The second clamping assembly 5 applies a thrust to the workpiece to be processed until one end of the workpiece to be processed that is away from the second clamping assembly 5 abuts against the stop assembly 6, thereby realizing the positioning of the workpiece to be processed in the length direction. It should be noted that the structure of the second clamping assembly 5 is the same as that of the first clamping assembly 4. As long as the stop assembly 6 can limit the workpiece to be processed in the length direction, the specific structure of the stop assembly 6 can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0061] In specific implementation, the assembly process of large three-sided formed components (those with a large length-to-width ratio only need to be arched in the length direction) is as follows:

[0062] According to the process arch requirement of the workpiece to be processed, the height of the middle rolling member 13 is not changed, and the rolling members 13 at both ends are adjusted symmetrically to reduce the height of the rolling members 13;

[0063] Place the bottom plate of the workpiece to be processed on the support assembly 1 so that the bottom plate abuts against the rolling element 13;

[0064] Adjust the second clamping assembly 5 to fix the lengthwise position of the bottom plate;

[0065] Weld the middle partition of the workpiece to be processed to the top surface of the bottom plate;

[0066] Place the first side plate of the workpiece to be processed on one side of the bottom plate in the width direction, and use the first clamping assembly 4 on the same side of the first side plate to cooperate with the partition plate to position the first side plate to the target position, and then perform subsequent work such as welding;

[0067] Repeat the process of the first side plate with the second side plate of the workpiece to be processed.

[0068] Finally, it should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, the elements defined by the sentence "comprise a ..." do not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the elements.
