Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fixtures, in particular to an adaptive robot welding fixture. Background Art
[0002] Robotic welding is the use of robots in automated welding systems to perform welding operations. This automation technology is efficient, precise and reliable, and is suitable for large-scale production and repetitive welding tasks. Fixtures play a key role in robotic welding, ensuring that the workpiece is accurately positioned and used to fix the workpiece to ensure correct position and stability.
[0003] A Chinese patent discloses an adaptive robotic welding fixture (authorization announcement number CN221538722U). The patented technology includes a base, the upper end of which is fixedly connected to a workbench, the upper end of which is located outside the workbench and fixedly connected to four evenly distributed support rods, the upper ends of which are fixedly connected to a top plate, the upper end of which is fixedly connected to a cylinder, and the output end of the cylinder is slidably connected to the top plate. The utility model designs the function of the cylinder, so that the output end of the cylinder can drive the pressure block to move downward, and the contact between the pressure block and the roller can push the roller to deflect along the connecting seat, so that the wheel frame can drive the clamping block to move in the direction close to the workpiece, so that the workpiece can be clamped. The deflection angle of the wheel frame can be adjusted by the downward displacement of the pressure block, so that it can automatically adapt to workpieces of different sizes for clamping and positioning, and the clamping is more stable. In addition, the two wheel frames keep moving synchronously, so that the workpiece can be positioned at the center of the workbench.
[0004] This patented technology clamps and positions the workpiece by squeezing during use to ensure the stability of the workpiece during welding. However, there are still some shortcomings during use. There are limitations when clamping the workpiece with only two clamping blocks. When welding tubular structures, the two-point clamping cannot meet the stability of the workpiece during welding. There is a situation where the workpiece shakes during welding and affects the welding. Therefore, those skilled in the art provide an adaptive robot welding fixture to solve the problems raised in the above background technology. Utility Model Content

[0014] Specifically, the limiting ring elastically supports one end of the spring, so that the elastic force of the spring acts on the slide bracket through the limiting ring, and further acts on the guide rod.
[0015] Furthermore, the outer wall of the ring seat is provided with connecting rods distributed in an annular array and connected to the outer wall of the support ring;
[0016] Specifically, the ring seat and the support ring are fixed together via a connecting rod.
[0017] Furthermore, the lower end of the support ring is provided with pulleys distributed in an annular array, the inner wall of the mounting frame is provided with two sets of guide rails distributed in an annular array, and the pulleys are rotatably mounted inside the guide rails;
[0018] Specifically, when the support ring rotates, the pulley rolls inside the guide rail, and the support ring is supported in rotation.
[0019] Furthermore, the outer wall of the rotating shaft is sleeved with symmetrically distributed gears, and the outer wall of the supporting ring is sleeved with a gear ring 1 that meshes with the gears;

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:
[0023] In the utility model, the workpiece is placed inside the ring seat, and the guide rod is squeezed by the squeezing block, thereby driving the clamping block to clamp the outer wall of the workpiece, so that the workpiece is clamped and fixed during robot welding;
[0024] At the same time, the clamping blocks are distributed in a circular array and move synchronously. When clamping the outer wall of the tubular structure, multi-point equidistant clamping is performed to adapt to the specifications of the tubular structure and perform adaptive multi-point clamping and fixing, thereby ensuring the stability of the tubular structure during welding.

[0039] The fixture structure 300 includes a symmetrically arranged ring seat 302, a rotating ring 308 rotatably mounted within the ring seat 302, a second gear ring 304 sleeved onto the outer wall of the rotating ring 308, a hydraulic rod 301 fixed to one side of the ring seat 302, a gear plate 303 connected to the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 301 and in contact with the second gear ring 304, extrusion blocks 305 distributed in an annular array on the inner wall of the rotating ring 308, a connecting ring 306 located on the inner wall of the ring seat 302, a slide bracket 309 distributed in an annular array on the inner wall of the connecting ring 306, a guide rod 310 slidably inserted into the interior of the slide bracket 309, and a clamping block 307 located at one end of the guide rod 310;
[0040] The inner wall of the extrusion block 305 is inclined, a ball 313 is embedded in one end of the guide rod 310, and a moving port 206 is provided inside the support ring 201;
[0041] The outer wall of the guide rod 310 is sleeved with a limit ring 312, and the outer side of the guide rod 310 is sleeved with a spring 311 whose two ends are respectively connected to the limit ring 312 and the slide bracket 309;
[0042] Performing use of the clamp structure 300;
[0043] The tubular structure is located inside the clamping block 307. The hydraulic rod 301 operates to drive the gear plate 303 to move back and forth. The gear plate 303 includes a travel plate and a rack. The travel plate moves with the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 301, thereby driving the rack to push the gear ring 2 304. The gear ring 2 304 is supported by the rotating ring 308 inside the ring seat 302. The rotating ring 308 drives the extrusion block 305 to rotate. The extrusion block 305 fits the outer wall of the ball 313, and the extrusion force acts on the guide rod 310 and the spring On 311, the spring 311 is forced to contract, and the guide rod 310 is forced to move toward the workpiece, driving the clamping block 307 to gradually fit the outer wall of the workpiece, and multi-point clamping is performed on the outer wall of the gap of the tubular structure. When the tubular structure is clamped, the multi-point clamping is distributed in a circular array, avoiding the problem of insufficient stability of two-point clamping when welding tubular structures. Two-point clamping is performed on the plate structure. When the welding robot performs automatic welding on the workpiece, adaptive adjustment is achieved when clamping the tubular structure, and the flexibility of the use process is improved.

[0046] as well as;
[0047] The adjustment structure 200 includes symmetrically distributed support rings 201 , a motor 207 fixed to one side of the upper end of the mounting frame 100 , and a rotating shaft 208 located at the lower end of the motor 207 and rotatably mounted inside the mounting frame 100 .
[0048] The outer wall of the ring seat 302 is provided with connecting rods 203 distributed in an annular array and connected to the outer wall of the support ring 201;
[0049] The lower end of the support ring 201 is provided with pulleys 202 distributed in an annular array. The inner wall of the mounting frame 100 is provided with two sets of guide rails 204 distributed in an annular pattern. The pulleys 202 are rotatably mounted inside the guide rails 204.
[0050] The outer wall of the rotating shaft 208 is sleeved with symmetrically distributed gears 209, and the outer wall of the supporting ring 201 is sleeved with a gear ring 1 205 that meshes with the gears 209;
[0051] Performing the use of the adjustment structure 200;
[0052] The motor 207 drives the rotating shaft 208 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 208 drives the gear 209 to push the ring gear 205, thereby driving the support ring 201 to rotate.

When the ring seat 302 rotates, it drives the clamped workpiece to rotate, and the clamped workpiece can be rotationally adjusted during welding. In particular, when welding tubular workpieces, the tubular workpiece can be rotationally adjusted. When welding tubular workpieces in annular surface butt joints, the rotating workpiece provides assistance for welding and compensates for the rotation stroke of the welding arm of the welding robot.
