[0025] The fixture assembly for laser-arc hybrid welding based on the above technical features is provided with two sets of web fixtures 3 on the base 1, and at the same time, a plurality of columns 2 are provided on the base 1. The upper end of the column 2 is provided with a flange fixture 5. When welding is required, first fix the web 7 vertically between the two sets of web fixtures 3, and then adjust the height of the telescopic fixture 4 so that when the flange 6 is placed on the web 7, the telescopic fixture 4 just supports the flange 6, and then clamp the flange 6 with the flange fixture 5 to realize the fixation of the flange 6. With the joint cooperation of the telescopic fixture 4, the flange fixture 5 and the column 2, it can precisely ensure that the gap between the flange 6 and the web 7 meets the technical requirements of laser-arc hybrid welding, and during the welding process, it can ensure that the welding position never changes, achieving an ideal clamping effect, effectively improving the welding accuracy of the T-joint laser-arc hybrid welding and controlling the welding deformation to the minimum, thereby improving the welding efficiency and accuracy of the T-joint.
[0026] In addition, the column 2, the web fixture 3 and the telescopic fixture 4 are all adjustably arranged on the base 1, so as to be able to meet the assembly of T-joints of different sizes, making the fixing assembly have universal applicability.
[0027] In this embodiment, the base 1 is provided with a plurality of threaded holes 11. The web fixture 3 and the telescopic fixture 4 are both connected to the threaded holes 11 through bolts. The column 2 is provided with an external thread, and the column 2 is connected to the threaded holes 11.

The threaded holes 11 can be arranged in a rectangular array.
[0028] Please refer to the appendix Figure 2, in this embodiment, the web clamp 3 includes a mounting base 31. A first connection hole 32 connected to the threaded hole 11 is provided at the bottom of the mounting base 31. The first connection hole 32 can be set as a round hole or an oval hole. When it is set as a round hole, the distance between the two round holes is the same as the distance between the two threaded holes 11. However, it is preferably set as an oval hole, which is convenient for the connection between the web clamp 3 and the base 1 and has a more flexible adjustment range. A fixing plate 33 is height-adjustably provided on the mounting base 31. A screw clamp 34 is provided on the fixing plate 33. The screw clamp 34 includes a screw that can be finely adjusted and a clamping block provided at the clamping end of the screw.

The clamping block is directly in contact with the web 7 and has elasticity, which can avoid damaging the web 7 during the clamping process.
[0029] The fixing plate 33 is height-adjustably arranged on the mounting base 31, so that the height can be adjusted according to different webs 7, thereby better assembling and fixing the web 7. Specifically, an installation groove with an open upper end is provided on the mounting base 31. A locking bolt 35 is provided on the side wall of the installation groove. The fixing plate 33 is telescopically arranged in the installation groove and fixed by the locking bolt 35. That is, when the height of the screw clamp 34 needs to be adjusted, first loosen the locking bolt 35, then move the fixing plate 33 up and down, and lock the locking bolt 35 after the fixing plate 33 moves to a determined position. The operation is simple and convenient.
[0030] , in this embodiment, the telescopic clamp 4 includes a telescopic cylinder 41. A second connection hole connected to the threaded hole 11 is provided at the bottom of the telescopic cylinder 41. The second connection hole has the same structure as the first connection hole 32 and can be a round hole or an oval hole. A locking stud is provided on the outer wall of the telescopic cylinder 41. A telescopic rod 42 is telescopically inserted into the telescopic cylinder 41 and fixed by the locking stud 43. When the height of the telescopic clamp 4 needs to be adjusted, loosen the locking stud 43, move the telescopic rod 42 up and down, and tighten the locking stud 43 after moving to a determined position. An elastic block can be provided at the upper end of the telescopic rod 42, which is in direct contact with the wing plate 6 to avoid damaging the wing plate 6.
[0031] Please refer to the appendix Figure 3, in this embodiment, the wing plate clamp 5 is a vise clamp. The wing plate 6 is pressed against the upper surface of the web 7 through the column 2 and the vise clamp, and a structure in which the two are in perpendicular contact with each other is formed to ensure that the wing plate 6 and the web 7 are perpendicular to each other and reduce the gap between the two. The wing plate clamp 5 includes an upper clamp block 51 and a lower clamp block 52 arranged oppositely. The upper clamp block 51 can move up and down along with the column 2, and can rotate relative to the column 2. A limit nut is provided on the column 2. When the position of the upper clamp block 51 is determined, the limit nut abuts against the upper surface of the upper clamp block 51. When clamping the wing plate 6, first insert the column 2 into the corresponding base threaded hole 11 according to the size of the T-joint, fix the height of the column 2 by tightening or loosening the column 2, and make the upper clamp block 51 press against the upper surface of the wing plate 6, so that the wing plate 6 and the web 7 form a structure in perpendicular contact with each other.
[0032] At the same time, in order to finely assemble the gap between the wing plate 6 and the web 7 and make the pressing of the wing plate 6 more reliable, the upper clamp block 51 and the lower clamp block 52 are connected by an adjusting bolt 53, so that the upper clamp block 51 and the lower clamp block 52 move towards or away from each other. Specifically, one end of the upper clamp block 51 is provided with a guide plate 54, the guide plate 54 is provided with an adjusting block 55, the lower clamp block 52 is provided with a guide groove 56 corresponding to the guide plate 54, the adjusting bolt 53 is threadedly connected to the lower clamp block 52 and the adjusting block 55, and the lower clamp block 52 can move up and down along the column 2. After the upper clamp block 51 abuts against the wing plate 6, rotate the adjusting bolt 53 to make the lower clamp block 52 move towards the upper clamp block 51 to clamp the wing plate 6 and reduce welding deformation. After welding is completed, rotate the adjusting bolt 53 in the opposite direction to make the lower clamp block 52 move away from the upper clamp block 51. At the same time, through the cooperation of the guide plate 54 and the guide groove 56, the moving accuracy of the lower clamp block 52 moving towards or away from the upper clamp block 51 can be guaranteed, and the precise clamping of the wing plate 6 can be guaranteed.
[0033] It is also possible that through holes are provided on both the upper clamp block 51 and the lower clamp block 52. The through holes are sleeved on the column 2, and the diameter of the through holes is larger than the outer diameter of the column 2. When clamping, first connect the column 2 to the base 1, then adjust the position of the upper clamp block 51 so that it abuts against the upper surface of the wing plate 6, then make the limit nut abut against the upper clamp block 51, and then adjust the position of the lower clamp block 52 through the adjusting bolt 53 to clamp the wing plate 6 with the upper and lower clamp blocks.
[0034] In addition, in order to facilitate the rotation of the column 2, a rotating rod can be provided at the upper end of the column 2. The rotating rod is perpendicular to the column 2. When rotating the column 2, just hold the rotating rod tightly, which is convenient for applying force.
[0035] In this embodiment, a positioning groove 12 extending along the length direction is provided on the base 1, and two sets of web clamps 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the positioning groove 12. When fixing the web 7, first place the web 7 in the positioning groove 12, and then make the web clamp 3 clamp the web 7. This is not only convenient for operation, but also convenient for positioning the web 7, ensuring the accuracy of the web 7. There are two telescopic clamps 4, which are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the two sets of web clamps 3, that is, one telescopic clamp 4 is arranged on one side of the positioning groove 12. Preferably, each set of web clamps 3 has two, and the telescopic clamp 4 is arranged between the two web clamps 3.
