Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of welding equipment, in particular to a container basket welding line Background Art

[0002] A container basket is a container for loading items, usually welded by square tubes. During the welding process, after the side walls of the container basket are welded, assembly is carried out. The welding of the side walls also requires multiple square tubes to be welded into a plate-like structure. Therefore, during the welding of the container basket, the welding workload is large, and the welded side walls need to be repeatedly flipped and then the back side is repaired by welding to ensure reliable welding.

[0003] Currently, during the welding of container baskets, usually multiple operators carry out welding. After welding multiple side wall plates respectively, the side plates are manually spliced into a frame shape and then assembled and welded. In this way, the labor intensity of workers is high and the welding efficiency is also low.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a welding production line that can weld container baskets currently. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve at least one of the above problems, and provide a container basket welding line, and the technical solution adopted is as follows:

[0006] A container basket welding line includes a side plate welding mechanism and an assembly welding mechanism. The side plate welding mechanism includes

[0007] A first welding robot,

[0008] A first welding tooling, which is fixedly arranged beside the first welding robot. A first welding plate for placing workpieces to be welded is arranged thereon. A plurality of first quick clamps for clamping the workpieces to be welded are fixedly installed on the first welding plate. The plurality of first quick clamps are arranged in a matrix and define a plurality of horizontal and vertical first welding positions;

[0009] The assembly welding mechanism includes

[0010] A second welding robot,

[0011] A second welding tooling, which is fixedly arranged beside the second welding robot. A second welding plate is fixedly installed thereon.

[0031] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the present utility model clearer, the following further details the present utility model in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0032] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present utility model, all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) are only used to explain the relative position relationship and movement conditions between components in a specific posture (as shown in the drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0033] In addition, the descriptions such as "first" and "second" set in the embodiments of the present utility model are only for descriptive purposes, and cannot be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features.

[0034] This embodiment provides a container basket welding line for automatically welding the container basket, thereby reducing the labor input, lowering the labor intensity of the operator, and improving the welding efficiency.

[0035] As Figures 1-6 shown, the embodiment of the present utility model provides a container basket welding line, which includes a side plate welding mechanism 100 and an assembly welding mechanism 200. Among them, the side plate welding mechanism 100 includes a first welding robot 101 and a first welding tooling 110. The first welding tooling 110 is fixedly arranged beside the first welding robot 101, and a first welding plate 111 for placing the workpiece to be welded is arranged thereon. A number of first quick clamps 112 for clamping the workpiece to be welded are fixedly installed on the first welding plate 111. The number of first quick clamps 112 is arranged in a matrix and defines a number of horizontal and vertical first welding positions; the assembly welding mechanism 200 includes a second welding robot 201 and a second welding tooling 210. The second welding tooling 210 is fixedly arranged beside the second welding robot 201, and a second welding plate 211 is fixedly installed thereon. A side positioning and clamping device 220 is arranged on the second welding plate 211. The number of side positioning and clamping devices 220 defines a frame-shaped second welding position, and a second quick clamp 221 for clamping the workpiece to be welded is fixedly installed on the number of side positioning and clamping devices 220.

[0036] During the welding process, the square tubes are placed on the first welding plate 111 and placed along the first welding positions, and are clamped and fixed by the first quick clamps 112. The first welding robot 101 welds the fixed square tubes to form the side plates of the container basket. In this embodiment, two first welding toolings 110 are provided, so that two side plates can be welded simultaneously; then the welded side plates are transported onto the assembly welding mechanism 200, placed along the second welding positions, and fixed by the second quick clamps 221 on the side positioning and clamping devices 220 to form a frame-shaped structure. The second welding robot 201 welds the side plates assembled into the frame-shaped structure to form the container basket.

[0037] During the welding process of the container basket, the participation of manual labor is reduced, and the welding work is completed by the welding robots. Manual labor is more involved in the handling and placement of the side plates and welding materials, thus greatly reducing the labor intensity and improving the welding efficiency.

[0038] In this embodiment, the first welding tooling 110 has a fixedly arranged turnover positioner 102, and the first welding plate 111 is fixedly installed on the turnover positioner 102 and is driven by it to turn; the second welding tooling 210 includes a fixedly arranged rotary positioner 202, and the second welding plate 211 is fixedly installed on the rotary positioner 202 and is driven by it to rotate. Thus, during the process of side plate welding and assembly welding, the direction and angle can be changed, which is convenient for more meticulous welding work on the workpiece.

[0039] In this embodiment, the side plate welding mechanism 100 further includes a lower side plate welding frame 120, which is fixedly arranged beside the first welding tooling 110, and a plurality of third quick clamps 121 are fixedly arranged thereon. The plurality of quick clamps are arranged along at least two mutually parallel established directions, defining two upper horizontal or vertical third welding positions.

[0040] Place the square tube on the lower side plate welding frame 120 and position it through the third quick clamps 121, so as to place the square tube into a lower frame with a size smaller than that of the corresponding side plate, and then weld it by the first welding robot 101.

[0041] In this embodiment, the assembly welding mechanism 200 further includes a bottom surface welding assembly 230, which includes a welding frame 231. At least four columns 232 arranged in a rectangle are formed on the welding frame, and a fourth quick clamp 233 is fixedly installed on the columns 232.

[0042] After the container basket is welded, place the container basket on the welding frame 231 of the bottom surface welding assembly 230 and fix it by the fourth quick clamps on the four columns 232. At this time, it should be noted that the container basket is buckled on the welding frame 231, so that the bottom of the container basket faces upward, and the second welding robot 201 performs supplementary welding on the bottom of the container basket to improve the welding quality and prevent the occurrence of missed welding.

[0043] Embodiment 1

[0044] In this embodiment, a specific example of the side positioning and clamping device 220 is given, and the other structures of this welding line are the same as those above.

[0045] In this embodiment, as Figures 4-5As shown in the figure, the side positioning and clamping device 220 is used to vertically fix and position the welded sides, and align multiple side plates with each other within the second welding position to form a frame structure. The side positioning and clamping device 220 includes a mounting post 222, a positioning rod 223, and a snap component 224. Among them, the mounting post 222 is fixedly installed on the second welding plate 211; the positioning rod 223 is slidably connected to the mounting post 222 along the direction towards the second welding position, and the second quick clamp 221 is fixedly arranged at the end of the positioning rod 223 facing the second welding position; the snap component 224 is arranged on the mounting post 222 to fix the position of the positioning rod 223. It includes a clamping arm 2241 whose one end is rotatably connected to the mounting post 222. The positioning rod 223 is provided with a number of card slots 2242 adapted to the clamping arm 2241 at equal intervals along the axial direction.

[0046] After swinging the clamping arm 2241, the clamping arm 2241 is snapped into the card slot 2242, thereby fixing the positioning rod 223. It can be imagined that by adjusting the length of the positioning rod 223 extending towards the second welding position, the position of the clamped side plate is adjusted, so as to adjust the size of the frame formed by splicing the side plates. After the clamping arm 2241 is snapped into the card slot 2242, the positioning rod 223 is fixed, thereby fixing the position of the side plate, which is convenient for the second robotic arm to perform welding.

[0047] In this embodiment, the snap component 224 further includes a seat body 2243. The seat body 2243 is correspondingly arranged on the other side of the positioning rod 223 corresponding to the rotation axis of the clamping arm 2241 and is fixedly installed on the mounting post 222. A positioning slot 2244 corresponding to the clamping arm 2241 is opened on the seat body 2243.

[0048] After swinging the clamping arm 2241 and snapping it into the card slot 2242, the end of the clamping arm 2241 away from the rotating shaft is also placed in the positioning slot 2244 and is positioned by the positioning slot 2244 through a ball or a bolt to ensure that the clamping arm 2241 will not be flipped, thereby unlocking the positioning rod 223.

[0049] During the process of linearly moving the positioning rod 223, to prevent the positioning rod 223 from rotating circumferentially, a chute (not shown in the figure) is axially opened on the positioning rod 223, and a limiting block 226 is arranged on the mounting seat and placed in the chute to form a sliding fit. During the sliding process of the positioning rod 223, under the action of the limiting block 226, the positioning eye can only slide axially, avoiding the situation of rotation.

[0050] For those skilled in the art, various other corresponding changes and deformations can be obtained according to the structure and principle disclosed by the present utility model, and all such changes and deformations fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
