Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of welding robot technology, and relates to a motorcycle frame welding robot with a positioner. Background Technology
[0002] The motorcycle frame assembly includes structures such as the head tube, main beam tube, front support tube, engine underbody tube, lower connecting tube, and rear tail frame. These components are assembled by welding. In existing technologies, welding robots are used for welding, and positioners are used to adjust the orientation. For example, a welding robot disclosed in patent number CN201920526372.6 automates the welding process, has six degrees of freedom in space, and provides precise, reliable, high-quality, and efficient welding. When used with a positioner, it achieves good welding results. However, in actual use, the welding environment is relatively open, and the odor generated during welding can spread from all sides to the surrounding area of the welding workshop. Therefore, we have designed a motorcycle frame welding robot with a positioner. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a motorcycle frame welding robot with a positioner to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: A motorcycle frame welding robot with a positioner, comprising a welding support base plate, a welding robot, and a positioner. The welding robot includes a robot support base, a rotary drive unit, a robotic arm, a robotic arm drive unit, a shaft joint drive unit, a telescopic cylinder, a swing arm, a shift fork, and a laser welding head. The robot support base is fastened to the top of the welding support base plate by bolts. The rotary drive unit is assembled on the top of the robot support base. The top of the rotary drive unit is connected to the robotic arm drive unit. The output shaft of the robotic arm drive unit is bolted to the robotic arm. The top of the robotic arm is connected to the shaft joint drive unit. A cylinder connecting seat is installed at the output end of the shaft joint drive unit. The telescopic cylinder is connected to the shaft joint drive unit through the cylinder connecting seat. The output end of the telescopic cylinder is bolted to the swing arm. The swing arm is connected to the shift fork. The laser welding head is assembled at the screw hole of the shift fork by back plate bolts.
[0005] The positioner includes two I-shaped support bases, two AC motors, and two rotating connecting discs. The two I-shaped support bases are welded to the top of the welded support base plate. The two AC motors are bolted to the corresponding I-shaped support bases through their housings. The two rotating connecting discs are mounted on the output shafts of the corresponding AC motors through bushings.
[0006] A winding connecting shaft is installed at one corner of the welded support base plate. A sound-absorbing roller shutter is wound around the surface of the winding connecting shaft. The sound-absorbing roller shutter consists of a particle adsorption mesh, a double-layer activated carbon mesh, and a rubber sound insulation pad. The double-layer activated carbon mesh is located between the rubber sound insulation pad and the particle adsorption mesh, and the particle adsorption mesh is located on the inner side of the rubber sound insulation pad.
[0007] In the aforementioned motorcycle frame welding robot with a positioner, a miniature rotating part is provided on the side of the shift fork, and a spot welding cleaning head is provided at the bottom end of the miniature rotating part. A cleaning cap is movably installed inside the spot welding cleaning head. The purpose of this arrangement is to use the rotation of the miniature rotating part to drive the cleaning cap inside the spot welding cleaning head to rotate, thereby cleaning the welding point, preventing welding spots from appearing in the welding area, and improving the overall aesthetics.
[0008] In the aforementioned motorcycle frame welding robot with a positioner, each of the two rotating connecting plates has a tooling clamping plate on one side. The two tooling clamping plates support a motorcycle frame fixture, and the top of the motorcycle frame fixture has multiple frame support brackets. This arrangement facilitates the mounting of the motorcycle frame on the tooling clamping plates. The frame support brackets, in conjunction with bolts and corresponding frame clamps, achieve limited and fixed positioning of the motorcycle frame, ensuring stability during position changes.
[0009] In the aforementioned motorcycle frame welding robot with a positioner, insertion holes are provided at the remaining three corners of the welding support base plate. Each of these three insertion holes contains a vertical rod, which is housed at the bottom of the motorcycle frame fixture. The length of each vertical rod is equal to the length of the winding connecting shaft, and a roller shutter hook is provided in the middle of each vertical rod. This arrangement ensures that the welding support base plate has connecting elements on all four sides, facilitating the sequential pulling of the sound-absorbing roller shutter through the roller shutter hooks on the three vertical rods. The shutter can then return to the winding connecting shaft, allowing the unfolded sound-absorbing roller shutter to form a barrier structure that encloses the welding area, reducing the leakage of odors during welding and, to some extent, lowering noise levels.
[0010] In the aforementioned motorcycle frame welding robot with a positioner, the rotary drive unit, the robotic arm drive unit, and the joint drive unit are all driven by servo motors. This arrangement aims to utilize servo motors as drive components, which offer excellent electrical controllability, facilitate the coordination of motion deviations, and simultaneously ensure good drive accuracy while reducing motion errors.
[0011] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model of a motorcycle frame welding robot with a positioner are as follows: By installing a winding connecting shaft at one corner of the welding support base plate, and wrapping a sound-absorbing roller shutter around the surface of the winding connecting shaft, the sound-absorbing roller shutter is composed of a particle adsorption mesh, a double-layer activated carbon mesh, and a rubber sound-absorbing pad. Combined with three uprights, the unfolded sound-absorbing roller shutter forms a enclosure structure that can enclose the welding area. The composite structure composed of the particle adsorption mesh, the double-layer activated carbon mesh, and the rubber sound-absorbing pad can adsorb welding particles, purify welding odors, and absorb welding noise. This not only reduces the leakage of odors during welding but also reduces noise to a certain extent, ensuring a safe environment in the welding workshop. Furthermore, by setting a miniature rotating part on the side of the shift fork, and a spot welding cleaning head at the bottom of the miniature rotating part, with a cleaning cap movable inside the spot welding cleaning head, the rotation of the miniature rotating part drives the cleaning cap inside the spot welding cleaning head to rotate, cleaning the welding points, preventing welding spots from appearing in the welding area, and improving the overall aesthetics of the welded parts.
