Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0026] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "equipped with," and "connected," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a welding machine for steel structure production, including a base 1, a side plate 2 fixedly connected to the rear of the top wall of the base 1, a welding mechanism 21 provided on the side plate 2, L-shaped fixing plates 3 fixedly connected to both sides of the top wall of the base 1, a rotating shaft 31 rotatably provided on the inner wall of the side of the two L-shaped fixing plates 3 that are far apart from each other, a housing 4 fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 31, a sleeve 41 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the housing 4 that is far away from the rotating shaft 31, a telescopic rod 42 provided inside the sleeve 41, a fixing frame 5 fixedly connected to the end of the telescopic rod 42 that is far away from the rotating shaft 31, a positioning mechanism 6 provided on the fixing frame 5, and a rotating mechanism 7 provided inside the base 1.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, a welding machine for steel structure production includes a positioning mechanism 6 comprising a piston cylinder 61, a piston 62, a piston rod 63, a positioning plate 64, a return spring 65, a mounting plate 66, a bidirectional air pump 67, and a diverter pipe 68. Four piston cylinders 61 are circumferentially arranged on the outer wall of the fixed frame 5. A piston 62 slides within each piston cylinder 61. The piston rod 63 of the piston 62 extends into the fixed frame 5 and is fixedly connected to the positioning plate 64. A return spring 65 is provided between the piston 62 and the inner wall of the piston cylinder 61 near the fixed frame 5. A mounting plate 66 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed frame 5 near the telescopic rod 42. A bidirectional air pump 67 is mounted on the mounting plate 66. A diverter pipe 68 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the fixed frame 5. The output end of the bidirectional air pump 67 is connected to the diverter pipe 68. 8 is connected to the four piston cylinders 61. The bidirectional air pump 67 pressurizes the distribution pipe 68. The air pressure is distributed to each piston cylinder 61 through the distribution pipe. Driven by the air pressure, the piston 62 drives the piston rod 63 to move. The piston rod 63 pushes the positioning plate 64 closer to the steel structure. The width and height of the steel structure may be different, so there will be two positioning plates 64 that will contact the steel structure first. After contact, the air pressure can no longer push the positioning plate 64 to move, so it will enter the other two piston cylinders 61 to continue to push the other two pistons 62 to move, until all positioning plates 64 contact the steel structure. The bidirectional air pump 67 stops, and the positioning of the steel structure is completed. When the positioning is canceled, the bidirectional air pump 67 depressurizes, and the return spring 65 pushes the piston 62 to return, thereby releasing the positioning plate 64 from the steel structure.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 7As shown, a welding machine for steel structure production includes a rotating mechanism 7 comprising a vertical rod 71, a first worm gear 72, a motor 73, a transmission rod 74, a first worm 75, a second worm 76, and a second worm gear 77. Vertical rods 71 ​​are rotatably mounted on both sides of the lower inner wall of the base 1. The upper ends of the vertical rods 71 ​​extend to the outer side of the base 1 and are rotatably connected to the upper inner wall of the L-shaped fixing plate 3. The first worm gear 72 is fixedly sleeved on the rod wall of the vertical rod 71 within the base 1. A motor 73 is mounted on one outer wall of the base 1. The output shaft of the motor 73 extends into the base 1 and is fixedly connected to the transmission rod 74. Two first worm gears 75, meshing with the first worm gear 72, are fixedly connected to the transmission rod 74. The vertical rod 71 is located on the lower inner wall of the base 1. A second worm 76 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rod. A second worm wheel 77 that meshes with the second worm 76 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 31. During the welding process, the output shaft of the motor 73 can drive the transmission rod 74 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission rod 74 drives the first worm 75 to rotate. When the first worm 75 rotates, it can drive the first worm wheel 72 that meshes with it to rotate the vertical rod 71. The rotation of the vertical rod 71 drives the second worm 76 to rotate. The rotation of the second worm 76 can drive the second worm wheel 77 to rotate the rotating shaft 31, thereby causing the rotating shaft 31 to rotate the fixed frame 5. The two fixed frames 5 will drive the two ends of the steel structure to rotate in the same direction, making the welding point more stable, avoiding uneven stress on the welding point, and making it less likely to produce welding defects.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, a welding machine for steel structure production has a screw 43 rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the housing 4 near the rotating shaft 31. The other end of the screw 43 extends into the interior of the telescopic rod 42 and is threadedly connected to its inner wall. A third worm gear 44 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the screw 43 near the rotating shaft 31. A third worm 45 is rotatably mounted on the lower inner wall of the housing 4. The upper end of the third worm 45 extends to the top of the housing 4 and is fixedly connected to a rotating wheel. Rotating the rotating wheel can drive the third worm 45 to rotate, and the rotation of the third worm 45 can drive the third worm gear 44 to rotate the screw 43. When the screw 43 rotates, it can cause the telescopic rod 42 to move the fixed frame 5, adjusting the distance between the two fixed frames 5, thus making it suitable for steel structures of different lengths.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, a welding machine for steel structure production has two symmetrically distributed grooves 411 on the inner wall of the sleeve 41, and two sliders 421 that cooperate with the grooves 411 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the telescopic rod 42. The sliders 421 cooperate with the grooves 411 to limit the telescopic rod 42 so that it can only move in a straight line and will not rotate with the screw 43.

[0032] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, a welding machine for steel structure production has a rubber pad on the side wall of the positioning plate 64 away from the piston rod 63.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, a welding machine for steel structure production has a base 1 with support frames 11 fixedly connected to both sides of the top wall. The sleeve 41 is in rolling engagement with the support frame 11, and the support frame 11 can support the sleeve 41 to prevent the rotating shaft 31 from being overloaded.

[0034] It should be noted that this utility model is a welding machine for steel structure production. In use, rotating the rotary wheel drives the third worm gear 45 to rotate. The rotation of the third worm gear 45 causes the third worm wheel 44 to drive the screw 43 to rotate. When the screw 43 rotates, the telescopic rod 42 moves the fixed frame 5, thus making it suitable for steel structures of different lengths. After adjusting the distance between the two fixed frames 5, the bidirectional air pump 67 is started. The bidirectional air pump 67 pressurizes the distribution pipe 68, and the air pressure is distributed to each piston cylinder 61 through the distribution pipe. Driven by the air pressure, the piston 62 drives the piston rod 63 to move. The piston rod 63 pushes the positioning plate 64 closer to the steel structure. Since the width and height of the steel structure may differ, there will be two positioning plates 64 that preferentially contact the steel structure. After contact, the air pressure can no longer push the positioning plate 64 to move. The pump will enter the other two piston cylinders 61 and continue to push the other two pistons 62 to move until all positioning plates 64 are in contact with the steel structure. The bidirectional air pump 67 will then stop, completing the positioning of the steel structure. Welding will then be performed using the welding mechanism 21. During the welding process, the output shaft of the motor 73 can drive the transmission rod 74 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission rod 74 drives the first worm 75 to rotate. When the first worm 75 rotates, it can cause the first worm wheel 72 meshing with it to drive the vertical rod 71 to rotate. The rotation of the vertical rod 71 drives the second worm 76 to rotate. The rotation of the second worm 76 can cause the second worm wheel 77 to drive the rotating shaft 31 to rotate, thereby causing the rotating shaft 31 to drive the fixed frame 5 to rotate. The two fixed frames 5 will drive the two ends of the steel structure to rotate in the same direction, making the welding point more stable, avoiding uneven stress on the welding point, and making it less likely to produce welding defects.

[0035] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
