[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automatic welding equipment, and particularly relates to an automatic welding device. Background Art

[0002] An automatic welding equipment is a welding tool that adopts advanced technologies and an automatic control system to realize the automation and intelligence of the welding process. This equipment is widely used in fields such as automobiles, aerospace, and shipbuilding, greatly improving the welding production efficiency and product quality.

[0003] When some automatic welding equipment fixes workpieces, since multiple cylinders can support and fix the workpieces from different points to ensure the workpieces remain stable during the welding process and avoid displacement or deformation, multiple cylinders are used in cooperation to achieve the positioning and fixing of the workpieces. When positioning and fixing workpieces of different sizes, it is necessary to adjust the installation positions of multiple cylinders to achieve the position adjustment of the positioning pins. This method requires disassembling and assembling the cylinders, and at the same time, it is also necessary to re-adjust and fix the connecting pipelines of the cylinders, making the adjustment process of the cylinders complicated. In addition, using multiple cylinders means more control logics and hardware components, which may increase the complexity of the system, thus increasing the risk of failures and maintenance costs. Moreover, as the number of cylinders used increases, the response speed of the cylinders, air pressure fluctuations, or delays in the control system may affect the synchronization, resulting in unstable fixation of the workpieces.

One end of the pressure rod 10 is movably installed on the piston rod of the cylinder 7 and one end of the bracket 8. The pressure block 11 is movably installed at the lower end of the pressure rod 10. The mounting seat 12 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the pressure rod 10. The mounting rod 13 is movably installed on one side of the mounting seat 12. A connecting block A14 is also movably installed at one end of the mounting rod 13. A positioning rod 15 is movably installed inside the connecting block A14. A welding robot arm 27 is also fixedly installed on the main chassis 1 located between the two moving platforms A4, and the welding robot arm 27 is electrically connected to the main control board in the controller 2.

[0023] As Figures 2 - 3 shown, an installation groove 17 is opened at the lower end of the pressure rod 10. A connecting block B18 is arranged at the upper end of the pressure block 11. The pressure block 11 and the connecting block B18 are movably connected through a compression spring B19. The connecting block B18 is inserted and installed in the installation groove 17. A fixing block 20 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting seat 12. A screw groove 21 is opened at the central position inside the fixing block 20. The mounting seat 12, the pressure rod 10, and the connecting block B18 are fixedly connected by bolts. With the settings of the mounting seat 12 and the fixing block 20, basic conditions can be provided for the installation of the pressure block 11, the connecting block B18, and the mounting rod 13.

The pressing plate 22 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixing block 20 by screws;

[0024] As Figures 2 - 4 shown, a chute A23 is opened inside the mounting rod 13. A stud 24 is fixedly installed at the central position of one end of the mounting rod 13.
