Improved weld tracking technology still needs to be continuously improved. Utility Model Content

The rotating seat and the additional seat both have adjacent wing plate structures bent at right angles; the clamp comprises two mutually buckled clamping blocks with corresponding clamping grooves, the clamp is installed on one of the wing plates of the rotating seat, and the other wing plate of the rotating seat is hingedly connected to one wing plate of the additional seat.

[0009] The rotating seat is composed of a first mounting plate and a second mounting plate which are perpendicular to and connected to each other; a first rotating hole is opened in the middle of the first mounting plate, and a first arc-shaped adjustment groove is opened on at least one side edge of the first mounting plate.

[0013] Furthermore, to achieve the above purpose, the utility model is configured as follows: a first mounting hole is provided on the second mounting plate. Alternatively, a third rotating hole and a second arc-shaped adjustment groove are provided on the second mounting plate of the rotating seat.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0015] By installing a screw-on seat-additional seat-clamp as an adjustable combined bracket for installing a laser tracker on the welding gun, the installation and adjustment structure is reasonably designed to provide stable support, reduce vibration and offset of the equipment during use, and improve the convenience of adjusting the angle and position of the laser tracker.
