And the limit posts 25 inside the support cylinder 1 can limit the elevating platform 21 through the limit sleeves 22 to ensure the stability of the connection frame 5 during lifting and welding, realizing the rapid adjustment of the device height.

In this way, after completing the welding of a set of structural parts, the welding mechanism can be quickly moved to other stations. Moving between multiple stations can save the time consumed by loading and unloading, thereby improving the welding efficiency. Then start the hydraulic rod 23 inside the support cylinder 1. The hydraulic rod 23 can push the lifting platform 21 to rise.
