Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of welding positioning, in particular to a positioning mechanism for a high-power hot forging and upsetting welding machine. Background Art
[0002] Many conductive materials can be welded by heating them to their melting points or even boiling points. The welding principle is to convert electrical energy into heat energy (such as the electric furnace in a steel mill), continuously heat the materials to be welded at the welding position, and when the temperature at this position rises to the melting point of the material, apply an upsetting force to this position. This external force can be designed to apply multiple forces with different intervals and upsetting forces according to the process requirements. Under the action of multiple external upsetting forces, two materials are permanently welded together.
[0003] When the existing welding track positioning tooling is in use, most of them are single clamping tooling for clamping workpieces, and the tooling cannot be adjusted separately for the workpieces. When the welded workpiece is relatively long, the operator needs to remove the bolts connecting the bottom of the track positioning tooling and the welding machine, and then disassemble and replace the track positioning tooling, which is rather troublesome and affects the welding efficiency of the workpiece. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] According to the above technical problems to be solved, a positioning mechanism for a high-power hot forging and upsetting welding machine is provided.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the utility model discloses a positioning mechanism for a high-power hot forging and upsetting welding machine, which includes a track workpiece and an installation table for supporting the positioning mechanism. A pressing oil cylinder connected to the installation table is arranged above the positioning mechanism. The bottom of the pressing oil cylinder is connected with a static fixture mechanism. A workpiece lifter is arranged on the left side of the installation table. An installation block fixed on the top of the installation table is arranged between the workpiece lifter and the positioning mechanism. Symmetrically arranged workpiece guides are installed on the installation block.
[0006] Further, the positioning mechanism includes a first positioning wheel and a second positioning wheel symmetrically distributed on both sides of the track workpiece. At least two groups of second positioning wheels are arranged and installed on a baffle. The first positioning wheel is far from the baffle, and the rear of the first positioning wheel is connected with a positioning cylinder through a connecting block. A drag chain is arranged between the connecting block and the installation table.
[0007] Furthermore, auxiliary electrodes are installed on the connecting blocks on the upper and lower sides of the first positioning wheel.
[0008] Furthermore, a clamping plate is arranged at the bottom of the static fixture mechanism. Pressing cylinders fixed on the side of the static fixture mechanism are arranged on both sides of the top of the clamping plate. The output end of the pressing cylinder is connected with the clamping plate. An electrode is fixedly installed at the bottom of the clamping plate. A pressing groove corresponding to the top contour of the track workpiece is opened at the bottom of the electrode.
[0009] Furthermore, the workpiece lifter includes a horizontally installed guide roller. The axis of the guide roller is perpendicular to the moving direction of the rail workpiece. Below the guide roller, a lifting cylinder fixed to the side of the mounting table is provided. The output end of the lifting cylinder is connected to the mounting plate at the bottom of the guide roller. Guide rods connected to the mounting plate are provided on both sides of the lifting cylinder.
[0010] Furthermore, the workpiece guide includes a movable rod connected to the mounting block. Guide wheels are installed on the movable rod. The guide wheels are horizontally installed and are located on both sides of the rail workpiece respectively.
[0011] Furthermore, a horizontally installed guide rail is provided on the center line of the mounting block. The inner side of the movable rod is clamped on the guide rail.
[0012] The beneficial effects of the present utility model compared with the prior art: The present utility model discloses a positioning mechanism for a high-power hot forging and upsetting fusion welding machine.

The first positioning wheel 22 is far from the baffle 20 and the rear of the first positioning wheel 22 is connected to the positioning cylinder 21 through a connecting block 25. A drag chain 24 is arranged between the connecting block 25 and the installation table 1. Below the connecting block 25, there is a detachable support table fixed to the installation table. The support table can be detached and replaced with a matching height according to different specifications of the rail workpiece.
