Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of welding fixtures, in particular to a welding fixture used for a welding robot. Background Art

[0002] Automatic welding robots are becoming increasingly common in workpiece welding. By using the automatic welding robot in conjunction with a welding fixture, the welding fixture clamps the workpiece to be welded, and then the automatic welding robot welds the workpiece to be welded.

[0003] The prior art provides a welding fixture for an automatic welding robot (Announcement No. CN216858759U), which includes a base plate and a hinge seat. The upper surface of the base plate is fixedly connected to a mounting plate. A groove is provided inside the hinge seat. A shaft cylinder is installed inside the groove. A first insertion shaft is provided at both ends of the shaft cylinder. The first insertion shaft passes through the hinge seat. The side surface of the shaft cylinder is fixedly connected to a first connecting rod and a second connecting rod. The first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are in a "V" shape. The utility model provides a rotatable shaft cylinder. When in use, the workpiece to be welded is placed on the base plate, and the second connecting rod is rotated so that the limiting stud slides along the track in the slot. Due to the lever-type design, the first connecting rod at the other end is pressed downward, and the movable limiting pressure plate squeezes and limits the workpiece to be welded to prevent deviation, which is convenient for welding. At this time, after the limiting pressure plate presses the workpiece tightly, a limiting nut is used to fix the position of the second connecting rod at this time.

[0004] The above-mentioned welding fixture for automatic welding robots can only clamp and fix the workpiece during actual use. However, after welding the upper surface or side of the workpiece, when it is necessary to weld the bottom of the workpiece, it is necessary to manually remove the bolts and disassemble the workpiece and readjust it before continuing to weld the workpiece. The installation and fixation of the workpiece are troublesome, which reduces the welding efficiency of the workpiece. Therefore, we need to propose a welding fixture for a welding robot.

[0026] In an optional embodiment: a bracket 21 is fixedly connected to the side of the base frame 1, and a driving mechanism for driving the transmission mechanism is provided on the bracket 21, the driving mechanism includes a cylinder 22, a mounting seat 23, a second driving motor 24, a connecting rod 19 and a conical plug block 14, the cylinder 22 is fixedly mounted on the side of the bracket 21, the mounting seat 23 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the cylinder 22, the second driving motor 24 is fixedly mounted on the mounting seat 23, the connecting rod 19 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second driving motor 24 through a coupling, and the conical plug block 14 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod 19.

[0027] In an optional embodiment: the transmission mechanism includes a bidirectional screw 6, a first adjusting screw 9, a second adjusting screw 10, a first bevel gear 16 and a second bevel gear 17, the bidirectional screw 6, the first adjusting screw 9 and the second adjusting screw 10 are all movably installed in the support plate 3, and the movable seat 11 and the adjusting plate 18 are each provided with two groups, one group of movable seats 11 is threadedly installed on the first adjusting screw 9, and the other group of movable seats 11 is threadedly installed on the second adjusting screw 10, one group of adjusting plates 18 is threadedly installed on the left-handed thread of the bidirectional screw 6, and the other type of adjusting plate 18 is threadedly installed on the right-handed thread of the bidirectional screw 6.

[0036] When in use, first place the workpiece on the top of the support plate 3, make the side of the workpiece 2 contact with the side of the stop block 25, start the second drive motor 24, and the output shaft of the second drive motor 24 rotates to drive the connecting rod 19 to rotate, so that when the connecting rod 19 rotates, the conical plug block 14 is driven to rotate, so that when the conical plug block 14 rotates, it drives the bidirectional screw rod 6 to rotate through the plug-in slot 8 and the fixed seat 7, so that when the bidirectional screw rod 6 rotates, the second conical gear 17 that meshes with the first conical gear 16 drives the first adjusting screw rod 9 and the second adjusting screw rod 10 to rotate, and when the bidirectional screw rod 6 rotates, it can drive the adjusting plate 18 on the left-hand thread and the right-hand thread to approach the workpiece 2, so that the adjusting plate 18 can clamp and fix the workpiece 2. At the same time, when the first adjusting screw rod 9 and the second adjusting screw rod 10 rotate, they can drive the moving seat 11 to approach each other, so that the moving seat 11 can drive the positioning seat 15 to approach the workpiece 2 through the push plate 12, so that the positioning seat 15 clamps and fixes the workpiece 2. At this time, the welding robot can weld the connection between the workpieces 2;

[0037] When it is necessary to weld the bottom of the workpiece 2, the telescopic rod of the cylinder 22 retracts to drive the mounting base 23 to move, so that the mounting base 23 can be pulled out of the conical plug block 14 from the insertion slot 8 during the movement, and the first drive motor 5 is started. When the output shaft of the first drive motor 5 rotates, it cooperates with the rotating rod 4 to drive the support plate 3 to rotate and flip.
