Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of gantry, and specifically relates to a large gantry double-wire robot welding workstation. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing requirements for welding quality and welding speed, automated welding technology has become the future development trend. Moreover, due to the influence of subjective factors of welders during the welding process, including personal welding proficiency, physical fitness, sense of responsibility, etc., it is impossible to ensure the good welding effect and the smoothness of the welding process.
[0003] Using a robot for welding can free people from extremely harsh working environments. Through reliable welding processes, the welding quality and efficiency can be reliably guaranteed. At the same time, by equipping with fully automatic loading and unloading equipment, a closed cutting space and a dust removal system, a fully automatic robot welding production line is formed, which completely realizes the automation of welding processing, greatly reduces the labor intensity of workers, and also purifies the welding fumes, preventing environmental pollution. Such a production line has significant advantages in terms of quality, efficiency, environmental protection, safety, and reduction of labor intensity.
[0004] Generally, a welding robot is needed for combined welding on a gantry. However, some welding robots on the market currently need to be programmed by programmers before welding operations, which is rather cumbersome. Since the programmed points are fixed, once the gantry shakes, miswelding and missed welding will occur. In short, it is impossible to effectively grind off the redundant parts of the welding nodes, and thus improvements are needed. Summary of the Utility Model
[0005] To solve the problem of miswelding and missed welding caused by the shaking of the gantry during the movement of the welding robot, the utility model provides a large gantry double-wire robot welding workstation.
[0006] The utility model is realized through the following technical solutions:

A guiding base capable of sliding along the rail is installed at the bottom of the gantry frame structure. A base driving device is provided on the guiding base, and the base driving device is in contact with the rail through a compression spring; a transverse moving mechanism slides horizontally on the upper cross beam of the gantry frame structure. An elevating ram mechanism that moves along the vertical direction thereof is provided on the transverse moving mechanism, and a welding robot is connected to the elevating ram mechanism.
[0008] The base driving device drives the guide base to move along the rail. The base driving device is pressed against the rail through a compression spring, thereby avoiding large shaking due to poor contact during movement. It helps to reduce the impact on the welding robot by reducing the shaking amplitude, thereby improving the situation of wrong welding and missed welding and improving the welding quality.

By adjusting the position of the guide wheel on the guide wheel bracket, it is helpful to adjust the degree of fit between the guide wheel and the rail, thereby reducing the shaking amplitude of the gantry frame structure in the plane perpendicular to the rail during movement.
[0013] A further improvement of the utility model is that a pressing block is slidably mounted on the guide wheel bracket, a supporting roller bearing is rotatably mounted on the pressing block, and the guide wheel is sleeved on the supporting roller bearing; at least two top screws arranged on a horizontal plane and parallel to each other are rotatably mounted on the pressing block, and the top screws are threadedly matched with the flange of the guide wheel bracket. The top screws are adjusted to achieve the movement of the guide wheel driven by the pressing block.
[0014] A further improvement of the present utility model is that a polyurethane buffer is installed on one side of the guide wheel bracket away from the guide base. The polyurethane buffer cooperates with the end of the rail, which helps to reduce the impact force when the guide base moves to the end of the rail.
[0015] A further improvement of the present utility model is that the above-mentioned lateral movement mechanism includes a sliding plate.

[0016] A further improvement of the present utility model is that travel switches are respectively arranged at both ends of the moving direction on the sliding plate. The travel switches cooperate with the limit protons on the cross beam to limit the moving track of the sliding plate.

[0029] A through groove allowing the installation of the base driving device is provided on the outer side of the middle part of the guiding base 6. The base driving device arranged in the middle part of the guiding base 6 can increase the tight covering area between the guiding base 6 and the rail 2 through the base driving device. The base driving device is installed in this through groove through the pressing support 18. One end of the pressing support 18 is hinged to the guiding base 6 outside the through groove, and the other end is provided with the pressing spring 16. The pressing support 18 is hinged to the guiding base 6 to facilitate the installation of the base driving device on the guiding base 6 in cooperation with the pressing spring 16. A through hole is provided at one end of the pressing support 18 where the pressing spring 16 is arranged. A guiding rod with a diameter smaller than the diameter of this through hole and installed on the guiding base 6 penetrates through this through hole. One end of the compression spring is connected to the pressing support 18, and the other end is connected to the end of the guiding rod away from the guiding base 6.
