[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0025] The utility model provides a welding device for elbow welding, combined with Figure 1-2 As shown, it includes a bracket 10, the bracket 10 is provided with a bent pipe placement plate 11, the bent pipe placement plate 11 is provided with a fixing structure for fixing the bent pipe, the bracket 10 is provided with an X-axis moving frame 12, the X-axis moving frame 12 is slidably connected to an X-axis transverse movement device, the X-axis transverse movement device is provided with a vertical rod 13, and the vertical rod 13 is slidably connected to a welding device 14.

[0026] In this embodiment, the bent steel pipe that needs to be repaired is fixed on the bent pipe placement plate 11 through a fixed structure, and the welding device 14 can be moved in the vertical direction and the X-axis direction through the X-axis lateral movement device and the vertical rod 13, so that the welding device 14 can be moved to the place where the bent pipe needs to be repaired for welding operation. During the operation, there is no need for workers to manually fix the bent pipe, and automatic welding is performed by the movable welding device 14, and no workers are required to weld, saving time and labor.

[0027] The fixing structure includes placement blocks 15 arranged on both sides of the elbow placement plate 11, and a placement groove 31 is provided in the middle of the placement block 15. The height of one end of the placement block 15 closer to the center of the elbow placement plate 11 is lower than the height of the other end.

[0028] In this embodiment, when fixing the bent pipe, the lower edges of both sides of the bent pipe are placed in the two placement grooves 31 respectively. The height setting of the two ends of the placement block 15 can prevent the lower edge of the bent pipe from being worn when placing the bent pipe.

[0029] The placement block 15 is horizontally slidably arranged on the bend pipe placement plate 11. The inner side of the bend pipe placement plate 11 is provided with a rotating motor 16. The output shaft of the rotating motor 16 is provided with a gear 17. The gear 17 is meshed and connected with a tooth block 18. The tooth block 18 is fixedly connected to the placement block 15. The tooth block 18 slides inside the bend pipe placement plate 11.

[0030] In this embodiment, the bent pipes have different lengths, and the rotating motor 16 is operated according to the length of the bent pipes, so that the two placement blocks 15 are moved to a suitable spacing through the cooperation of the gear 17 and the tooth block 18, so that the two ends of the bent pipe can be just placed in the two placement grooves 31 for fixed placement.

[0031] The placement block 15 is composed of a fixed block 19 and a movable block 20. The fixed block 19 is fixedly connected to the tooth block 18. The movable block 20 is slidingly connected to the tooth block 18 through the cooperation of the card strip and the card slot. The movable block 20 is slidably inserted into the fixed block 19, and a spring 21 is provided between the fixed block 19 and the movable block 20 to drive the movable block 20 close to the fixed block 19. The thickness of the fixed block 19 is less than the thickness of the movable block 20.

[0032] In this embodiment, when the bent pipe is placed on the placement block 15, the movable block 20 is pulled away from the fixed block 19 to lengthen the length of the placement slot 31. After the bent pipe is placed in the placement slot 31, the placement block 15 is moved so that the lower edge of the bent pipe first contacts the fixed block 19, and then the movable block 20 is released so that the movable block 20 is brought closer so that the movable block 20 contacts the bent pipe and the bent pipe is further fixed by the elastic force of the spring 21.

[0033] The fixed structure also includes a transverse top device arranged on the moving block 20, and the transverse top device includes a transverse top rod 22 slidingly connected to the moving block 20.

[0035] An arc-shaped rod 25 is provided at the end of the transverse push rod 22 away from the transverse push linear driver 23 .

[0036] In this embodiment, since the bent pipe is curved, the arc rod 25 further increases the contact area with the bent pipe, thereby improving the firmness and preventing the cross rod 22 from wearing the bent pipe.

[0037] The bent pipe placement plate 11 is also connected to a Y-direction lateral movement device arranged on the bracket 10.

[0038] In this embodiment, the Y-axis direction of the bent pipe placement plate 11 is achieved through the Y-axis lateral movement device, and the X-axis lateral movement device and the welding device 14 can move on the vertical rod 13 to achieve the movement of the welding device 14 in the three-axis directions of XYZ, which greatly increases the weldable coverage area of the bent pipe.

[0039] The X-axis lateral movement device includes an X-axis driver 26 arranged on the bracket 10, the output shaft of the X-axis driver 26 is connected to the X-axis support frame 27, the X-axis support frame 27 is slidingly connected to the X-axis moving frame 12, the vertical rod 13 is arranged on the X-axis support frame 27, and the X-axis support frame 27 is provided with a vertical linear driver 28 connected to the welding device 14, the Y-axis lateral movement device includes a Y-axis linear driver 29 arranged on the bracket 10, and the output shaft of the Y-axis linear driver 29 is connected to the bent pipe placement plate 11.
