Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of washing machine production and manufacturing, in particular to a welding device for a washing machine top cover. Background Art
[0002] The top cover of existing vertical washing machines is generally equipped with a control panel for controlling the start and stop functions of the washing machine. Since the control panel and the top cover of the washing machine are both made of plastic, an ultrasonic welding machine is usually used for welding when the two are assembled. At present, in the actual welding process of the washing machine top cover and the control panel, in order to prevent the welding head of the ultrasonic welding machine from leaving indentations on the outer surface of the washing machine top cover and the control panel, it is usually necessary to pad a layer of protective film on the bottom of the fixing seat that fixes the washing machine top cover and the side of the control panel that contacts the welding head. The control panel itself has a protective film, and workers do not need to lay it frequently, but the protective film at the bottom of the fixing seat requires workers to use tape to stick it to the bottom of the fixing seat. Not only is it very inconvenient to replace the protective film, but the tape will also leave offset marks on the bottom of the fixing seat, making it more difficult to clean the fixing seat.

[0006] The utility model is further configured as follows: the rotating assembly includes a rotating shaft rotatably arranged on the welding processing table and vertically rotating through a U-shaped fixed seat, a pair of worm gears respectively fixedly installed on one end of the unwinding roller and the winding roller, a pair of worms fixedly installed on the rotating shaft and respectively meshing with the two worm gears, and a hand crank fixedly installed on one end of the rotating shaft.
[0007] The utility model is further configured as follows: a pair of tension rollers parallel to the unwinding rollers or the winding rollers are rotatably arranged on both sides of the U-shaped fixing seat, and the tension rollers are located below the long hole, and the bottoms of the long hole are tangent.
[0008] The utility model is further configured as follows: the welding processing table is located at both ends of the unwinding roller and are respectively provided with a fixed support and a movable support for supporting the rotation of the unwinding roller; the fixed support is fixed to the welding processing table, and one end of the unwinding roller is rotatably connected to the fixed support; the movable support includes an articulated seat fixed to the welding processing table, a pair of connecting rods whose one ends are jointly hinged to the articulated seat, a pair of support wheels respectively rotated on the upper ends of the two connecting rods, and a locking plate that movably passes through the gap between the articulated seat and the lower ends of the two connecting rods; the sides of the lower ends of the two connecting rods that are close to each other are rounded corners, and the sides that are away from each other are angular corners, and the top of the locking plate is in parallel contact with the end of the lower end of the two connecting rods, and one end of the unwinding roller is placed on the two support wheels.
[0009] The utility model is further configured as follows: the locking plate is provided with a square through hole penetrating the top and the bottom thereof, and the square through hole is close to one end of the locking plate.
[0010] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0011] 1. By adopting the above-mentioned unwinding roller, winding roller, rotating assembly and other structures, when it is necessary to replace the washing machine top cover protection mold, first manually crank the hand crank to rotate the rotating shaft, and then the two worm gears on the rotating shaft will respectively engage and drive the two worm wheels, so that the unwinding roller and the winding roller connected to the two worm wheels respectively rotate synchronously, and then the new part of the washing machine top cover protection mold will be released from the unwinding roller and pass through the long strip hole into the U-shaped fixing seat, while the old part will pass through another long strip hole to pass through the U-shaped fixing seat, and finally be wound onto the winding roller. Not only can the new and old washing machine top cover protection molds be replaced in this way, but also due to the self-locking characteristics of the worm wheel and the worm, the new washing machine top cover protection mold can be stably fixed on the inner bottom of the U-shaped fixing seat. Compared with the traditional manual replacement and tape fixing of the washing machine top cover protection mold, this structure is easier and more convenient to replace the washing machine top cover protection mold, and there is no need to fix it with tape or the like. Among them, the tensioning rollers on both sides of the U-shaped fixing seat can ensure that the washing machine top cover protection mold passes through the long hole safely and smoothly.
[0012] 2. By adopting the above-mentioned structures such as the winding roller, the clamping assembly and the movable support, when the washing machine top cover protection mold on the unwinding roller is used up, first use scissors and other tools to clean the old washing machine top cover protection mold on the winding roller and the U-shaped fixed seat, then manually pull out the locking plate in the gap between the hinge seat and the second connecting rod to release the lock of the second connecting rod relative to the hinge seat, and then manually break the two connecting rods apart to facilitate the staff to put a new washing machine top cover protection mold coil from one end of the unwinding roller, and then close the two connecting rods again and insert the locking plate back, so that the support wheel at the upper end of the second connecting rod can lift one end of the unwinding roller again to ensure stable unwinding of the unwinding roller, and then manually shake the hand crank to pull out part of the washing machine protective film in the coil, and at the same time manually guide this part of the washing machine top cover protection mold through the two ends of the U-shaped fixed seat. The long hole, when the top cover protective film of the washing machine passes through the long hole to the side of the winding roller, the knob is manually turned to rotate the rotating clamp rod between the connecting rods. Since the hinge shaft of the rotating connecting rod is eccentrically connected to the rotating clamp rod, the rotating clamp rod will gradually move away from the fixed clamp barrel on the winding roller during the rotation process and open a gap. Finally, the top cover protective film of the washing machine is manually guided through the gap, and the knob is released. The torsion spring will rebound quickly, causing the hinge shaft to drive the rotating clamp rod to rotate in the opposite direction. Because the farthest distance from the axis of the hinge shaft to the contour surface of the rotating clamp rod is greater than or equal to the distance from the axis of the hinge shaft to the contour surface of the fixed clamp barrel, the rotating clamp rod will clamp the top cover protective film of the washing machine passing through the gap during the reverse rotation process, thereby realizing a stable connection between the top cover protective film of the washing machine and the winding roller. Among them, the square through hole on the locking plate can facilitate the user to quickly pull out the locking plate from the gap between the hinge seat and the second connecting rod.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the rotating assembly 9 includes a rotating shaft 91 rotatably arranged on the welding processing table 1 and vertically rotating through the U-shaped fixed seat 4, a pair of worm gears 92 respectively fixedly installed on one end of the unwinding roller 5 and the winding roller 6, a pair of worms 93 fixedly installed on the rotating shaft 91 and respectively meshing with the two worm gears 92, and a hand crank 94 fixedly installed on one end of the rotating shaft 91.
[0024] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the welding processing table 1 is located at both ends of the unwinding roller 5 and is respectively provided with a fixed support 11 and a movable support 12 for supporting the rotation of the unwinding roller 5.

The movable support 12 includes an articulated seat 121 fixed on the welding processing table 1, a pair of connecting rods 122 whose one ends are jointly hinged to the articulated seat 121, a pair of support wheels 123 respectively rotated on the upper ends of the two connecting rods 122, and a locking plate 124 that movably passes through the gap between the articulated seat 121 and the lower end of the connecting rod 122. The side of the lower end of the connecting rod 122 that is close to each other is a rounded corner, and the side that is away from each other is an angular corner, and the top of the locking plate 124 is in parallel contact with the end of the lower end of the connecting rod 122, and one end of the unwinding roller 5 is placed on the two support wheels 123. The locking plate 124 is provided with a square through hole 125 penetrating the top and bottom thereof, and the square through hole 125 is close to one end of the locking plate 124 .
[0025] The working principle of this embodiment:
[0026] When it is necessary to replace the washing machine top cover protection mold 7, first manually crank the hand crank handle 94 to rotate the rotating shaft 91, and then the two worm gears 93 on the rotating shaft 91 will respectively engage and drive the two worm wheels 92, so that the unwinding roller 5 and the winding roller 6 respectively connected to the two worm wheels 92 rotate synchronously, and then the new part of the washing machine top cover protection mold 7 will be released from the unwinding roller 5 and pass through the long strip hole 41 into the U-shaped fixing seat 4, while the old part will pass through another long strip hole 41 to pass through the U-shaped fixing seat 4 and finally be wound onto the winding roller 6. Not only can the new and old washing machine top cover protection molds 7 be replaced in this way, but also due to the self-locking characteristics of the worm wheel 92 and the worm gear 93 themselves, it can also ensure that the new washing machine top cover protection mold 7 is stably fixed on the inner bottom of the U-shaped fixing seat 4. Compared with the traditional manual replacement and tape fixing of the washing machine top cover protection mold 7, this structure is easier and more convenient to replace the washing machine top cover protection mold 7, and there is no need to use tape or other methods to fix it. The tensioning rollers 10 on both sides of the U-shaped fixing seat 4 can ensure that the washing machine top cover protection mold 7 passes through the long hole 41 safely and smoothly.
[0027] When the washing machine top cover protection mold 7 on the unwinding roller 5 is used up, first use scissors or other tools to clean the old washing machine top cover protection mold 7 on the winding roller 6 and the U-shaped fixing seat 4, then manually pull out the locking plate 124 of the gap between the hinge seat 121 and the second connecting rod 122 to release the locking of the second connecting rod 122 relative to the hinge seat 121, and then manually pry apart the two second connecting rods 122 to facilitate the staff to put a new washing machine top cover protection mold 7 roll from one end of the unwinding roller 5, then close the two second connecting rods 122 again, and insert the locking plate 124 back, so that the supporting wheel 123 at the upper end of the second connecting rod 122 can lift one end of the unwinding roller 5 again to ensure that the unwinding roller 5 is stably unwound, and then manually shake the hand crank 94 to pull out part of the washing machine protective film in the roll, and at the same time manually guide this part of the washing machine top cover protection mold 7 through the two long holes 41 of the U-shaped fixing seat 4, and wait until the washing machine is finished. When the top cover protective film of the washing machine passes through the long hole 41 to the side of the winding roller 6, the knob 85 is manually turned to rotate the rotating clamp rod 83 between the connecting rod 82. Since the hinge shaft 84 of the rotating connecting rod is eccentrically connected to the rotating clamp rod 83, the rotating clamp rod 83 will gradually move away from the fixed clamp cylinder 81 on the winding roller 6 during the rotation process and open a gap. Finally, the washing machine top cover protective film is manually guided through the gap and the knob 85 is released. The torsion spring 86 will rebound quickly, causing the hinge shaft 84 to drive the rotating clamp rod 83 to rotate in the opposite direction. Because the maximum distance from the axis of the hinge shaft 84 to the contour surface of the rotating clamp rod 83 is greater than or equal to the distance from the axis of the hinge shaft 84 to the contour surface of the fixed clamp cylinder 81, the rotating clamp rod 83 will clamp the washing machine top cover protective film passing through the gap during the reverse rotation process, thereby achieving a stable connection between the washing machine top cover protective film and the winding roller 6. The square through hole 125 on the locking plate 124 can facilitate the user to quickly pull out the locking plate 124 from the gap between the hinge seat 121 and the second connecting rod 122 .
