[0022] In order to better understand the technical means of the present invention and implement it in accordance with the content of the specification, the following further describes in detail the specific embodiments of the present invention in combination with the drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention but not to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0023] See the attached Figure 1-6 As shown in the figure, the welding fixture for the air conditioner outer casing in the first embodiment includes: an operating table 1; a tooling table rotatably provided on the operating table 1 for placing and positioning the air conditioner outer casing.

[0024] The tooling table includes: a placing plate 2; a plurality of positioning grooves 21 opened on the placing plate 2; and a through hole 22 penetrating through the middle of the placing plate 2, and the plurality of positioning grooves 21 are evenly spaced in a ring around the through hole 22; an adjustable bracket fixedly provided on the operating table 1 for mounting welding equipment; and a support mechanism mounted on the operating table 1 for supporting the tooling table and realizing its rotation.

[0025] The air conditioner outer casing can be placed on the placing plate 2, and then the positioning pins or locating pins are inserted into the positioning grooves 21 and the through hole 22 by passing through the holes on the air conditioner outer casing. When two positioning pins are inserted into the positioning grooves 21 and one positioning pin is inserted into the through hole 22, due to the annular interval distribution of the positioning grooves 21, triangular positioning of the air conditioner casing can be realized, which is simple and convenient to operate and improves work efficiency. Since the positioning grooves 21 have a certain length, the positioning pins can adjust their positions according to the length of the positioning grooves on the air conditioner outer casing to adapt to various sizes and shapes of air conditioner outer casings, improving practicability and reducing tooling costs.

[0026] The welding equipment can be fixed by the adjustable bracket, and the welding position can be adjusted by using the adjustable bracket. The support mechanism can support the tooling table and enable the rotation of the tooling table, facilitating the adjustment of the welding position.

[0027] Furthermore, the adjustable bracket includes: a vertical linear guide rail 3 vertically arranged on the operating table 1; a first driving member 31 that vertically reciprocates through the vertical linear rail; a transverse linear guide rail 32 transversely arranged on the first driving member 31; a second driving member 33 that transversely reciprocates through the transverse linear guide rail 32; and a fixing member 34 arranged on the second driving member 33 that can fix the welding equipment.

[0028] The vertical linear guide 3 and the horizontal linear guide 32 are composed of a screw assembly and a motor, which can realize the reciprocating motion of the first driving member 31 and the second driving member 33. When the fixing member 34 is fixed to the welding equipment, the multi-axis motion of the welding equipment can be realized through the first driving member 31 and the second driving member 33, so that the welding range is adjustable, and automatic welding can be realized through the PLC control system, thereby improving practicality.

[0029] Furthermore, the supporting mechanism includes: a mounting plate 4 fixed on the operating table 1; a shaft 41 vertically rotatable on the mounting plate 4; and a bearing seat fixed on the operating table 1 and driven by the shaft 41, which can realize the rotation of the tooling table.

[0030] The mounting plate 4 plays a supporting role, and a servo motor and a reducer connected to the mounting plate 4 can be installed on the mounting plate 4. The reducer can drive the shaft 41 to rotate through a pulley to realize the rotation of the shaft 41. When the shaft 41 rotates, it can drive the tooling table to rotate through the bearing seat, so as to achieve the purpose of supporting the tooling and rotating the tooling table. The specific situation of the outer shell rotation can be realized through the PLC control program, and the welding equipment on the bracket can be adjusted to realize the fully automatic welding steps, which greatly improves the work efficiency.

[0031] Furthermore, the bearing seat includes: a support plate 42 fixedly connected to the operating table 1; an outer ring sleeve 43 fixedly arranged on the support plate 42; an inner ring sleeve 44 rotatably connected to the outer ring sleeve 43 and capable of rotating through it; a plurality of connecting columns 45 arranged on the inner ring sleeve 44 for fixing the placement plate 2; and a positioning rod 46 that rotates through the shaft rod 41 and is coaxial with it, and a positioning hole is opened in the middle of the top end of the positioning rod 46.

[0032] The outer ring sleeve 43 can support the inner ring bearing. The outer ring sleeve 43 is fixed on the operating table 1 through the support plate 42 to improve the load-bearing capacity of the inner ring bearing. The connecting column 45 is used to fix the inner ring sleeve 44 and the placement plate 2. When the inner ring bearing rotates due to the shaft rod 41, the placement plate 2 can be driven to rotate through the connecting column 45 to realize the rotation of the air conditioner casing. The positioning rod 46 can pass through the through hole 22 to expose the positioning hole, which is convenient for triangular positioning.

[0033] Furthermore, a connecting piece 47 is fixedly connected to the top end of the shaft rod 41 , and the connecting piece 47 is fixedly connected to the positioning rod 46 and the inner ring sleeve 44 , respectively.

[0034] The connection area of the fixed connection can be increased through the connecting member 47, facilitating the fixed connection between the shaft rod 41, the positioning rod 46 and the inner ring bushing 44.

[0035] Furthermore, a number of connecting columns 45 are evenly spaced circumferentially around the inner ring bushing 44.

[0036] Using the evenly spaced distribution can evenly disperse the pressure received, making it better in load-bearing capacity.

[0037] Furthermore, a first support rod 11 for fixedly connecting with the support plate 42 is provided below the operating table 1, and a second support rod 12 located below the first support rod 11 and fixed to the operating table 1, and the second support rod 12 is used for fixedly connecting with the mounting plate 4.

[0038] The first support rod 11 is used for the fixed connection of the support plate 42, the second support rod 12 is used to support the mounting plate 4, and the upper and lower positions can save space.

[0039] Furthermore, an installation groove 13 through which the support mechanism passes is provided on the operating table 1, and a connection channel 14 for fixedly connecting the adjustable bracket is provided on the operating table 1.
