[0026] Example

[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a forklift rear axle assembly welding fixture 1 is disclosed, which is used to fix a forklift rear axle 2. The forklift rear axle 2 includes two perforated parts 26 / 23 arranged opposite each other, a bent part 24 connecting the two perforated parts 26 / 23, and two connecting parts 22 / 25. The circular holes 21 of the two perforated parts 26 / 23 are aligned. The fixture includes...

[0028] The base 11 is made of a metal plate, which serves to provide stable support;

[0029] The abutment is connected to the base 11. The abutment abuts against the forklift rear axle 2 from the inside and outside of the forklift rear axle 2 to fix the connecting parts 22 / 25, the bent parts 24 and the perforated parts 26 / 23. The abutment abuts against the inside of the bent parts 24 from the inside of the forklift rear axle 2, which makes it easier to accurately place the bent parts 24 between the two perforated parts 26 / 23 and improves the welding accuracy.

[0030] Positioning pins 12, two of which pass through the circular holes 21 of the two perforated parts 26 / 23, serve as initial positioning for the two perforated parts 26 / 23, ensuring the parallelism and precise alignment of the two perforated parts 26 / 23; the cross-section of the positioning pins 12 is circular, and the positioning pins 12 and the circular holes 21 are in a transition fit, that is, the diameter of the positioning pins 12 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the circular holes 21, and the gap between the positioning pins 12 and the circular holes 21 is very small, allowing the positioning pins 12 to slide within the circular holes 21, which facilitates assembly and ensures the coaxiality of the circular holes 21 and the positioning pins 12.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the clamping member further includes a fixed clamping member and a movable clamping member 13. The fixed clamping member abuts against the outer side of the forklift rear axle 2, and the movable clamping member 13 abuts against the inner side of the forklift rear axle 2.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the fixed fastener is welded to the base 11, and the movable fastener 13 is movably connected to the base 11. The position of the movable fastener 13 is determined according to the welding position of the bent part 24. The movable fastener 13 is then fixed to the base 11 after the bent part 24 is close to the movable fastener 13.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the volume of the movable abutment 13 is smaller than that of the forklift rear axle 2, so as to facilitate the placement of the movable abutment 13 between the two perforated parts 26 / 23.

[0034] Reference Figure 4 As shown, the movable abutment 13 further includes a bottom plate 132 and a top plate 136 arranged vertically. The bottom plate 132 is connected to the base 11 by screws. Specifically, both the bottom plate 132 and the base 11 are provided with screw holes 131. In order to adjust the position of the movable abutment 13, the bottom plate 132 is also provided with a strip hole 133. The screw passes through the strip hole 133 or the screw hole 131 to connect to the screw hole of the base 11. The top plate 136 supports the connector 22 located between the two perforated parts 26 / 23 so that the connector 22 can be welded. Furthermore, in order to reduce the weight of the movable abutment 13, the bottom plate 11 is provided with weight reduction holes.

[0035] Reference Figure 4 As shown, the movable retaining member 13 further includes a vertical plate 137. The bottom plate 132 and the top plate 136 are connected by the vertical plate 137. The vertical plate 137 is provided with weight-reducing holes. In order for the bending member 24 to be accurately placed between the two perforated members 26 / 23, the edge of the vertical plate 137 is provided with a retaining inclined surface 134. The retaining inclined surface 134 abuts against the inclined surface of the bending member 24, and the slope of the retaining inclined surface 134 is equal to the slope of the inclined surface of the bending member 24.

[0036] Furthermore, in order to evenly support both ends of the bent component 24 and prevent misalignment during welding, two parallel and spaced vertical plates 137 are included, with the two vertical plates 137 respectively supporting both ends of the bent component 24.

[0037] Reference Figure 4 As shown, further, in order to avoid the bend of the bent part 24, the edge of the vertical plate 137 is provided with a clearance opening 135. The clearance opening 135 is located at the bend of the vertical plate close to the inclined surface 134. The clearance opening 135 is set directly opposite the bend of the bent part 24. The clearance opening 135 can avoid the bend of the bent part 24 and prevent the vertical plate 137 from being damaged by impact with the bent plate.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the fixing fastener further includes a first fixing fastener 111 and a second fixing fastener 112. The first fixing fastener 111 abuts against one side of the forklift rear axle 2 along the first direction Y, while the other side of the forklift rear axle 2 along the first direction Y is left empty. The second fixing fastener 112 abuts against one side of the forklift rear axle 2 along the second direction X, while the other side of the forklift rear axle 2 along the second direction X is left empty. The purpose of leaving the empty side is to facilitate assembly and welding operations.

[0039] Reference Figure 2 As shown, further, since there is a height difference on the surface of the perforated part 23 due to the installation of other metal parts, both the first fixing fastener 111 and the second fixing fastener 112 are provided with abutting protrusions. The first fixing fastener 111 avoids and abuts against the side of the perforated part 23 through the abutting protrusion 113; the second fixing fastener 112 abuts against the connector 25 of the forklift rear axle through the abutting protrusion 114.

[0040] Reference Figure 2As shown, the first fixing member 111 further includes two parallel and spaced vertical plates, with the edges of the vertical plates protruding to form abutment protrusions 113; the second fixing member 112 also includes two parallel and spaced horizontal plates, with the edges of the horizontal plates protruding to form abutment protrusions 114. The second fixing member 111 abuts against the edges of the two perforated members 26 / 23 through the edges of the horizontal plates, and the second fixing member 111 abuts against the side of the connector 2 through the abutment protrusions 114.

[0041] The working principle of the forklift rear axle assembly and welding fixture 1 described in this utility model is as follows:

[0042] When assembling the forklift rear axle 2, place the two perforated parts 26 / 23 onto the two ends of the two locating pins 12. Then, place the two perforated parts 26 / 23 over the movable retaining part 13 from top to bottom and finally place them on the base 11. Move the two perforated parts 26 / 23 to fit tightly against the first fixed retaining part 111 and the second fixed retaining part 112. Then, adjust the spacing between the two perforated parts 26 / 23 to the correct position. Next, place the bent part 24 against the inclined surface 134 of the vertical plate 137. Then, fix the movable retaining part 13 with screws. Finally, place the connector 25 on one side of the two perforated parts 26 / 23 and place the connector 22 on the top plate 136 to complete the assembly. Then, start welding the connector 22, connector 25, and bent part 24 onto the two perforated parts 26 / 23. After welding, loosen the movable retaining part 13 and then remove the forklift rear axle 2.
