[0002] In the field of aviation manufacturing, the welding of product shells and bottom plates is an important process link in building aircraft structures. Existing welding techniques face a series of challenges in this process. Specifically, the current operation mode mainly relies on manual alignment to achieve accurate positioning of the shell and the bottom plate. This manual operation not only is inefficient, but also is extremely susceptible to human factors, leading to welding deviations from time to time.

[0018] The technical solutions in the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0019] A welding fixture that can meet the requirements of different welding positions includes a base 1, a positioning mechanism 2, and a clamping mechanism 5. The upper end of the base 1 is provided with the positioning mechanism 2 and the clamping mechanism 5. The clamping mechanism 5 includes a flat pressure plate 9 and a flat pressure plate bolt 10. The flat pressure plate 9 has an inverted L-shaped structure. The lower end of the vertical plate of the flat pressure plate 9 contacts the upper surface of the base 1. The horizontal plate of the flat pressure plate 9 is used to clamp the bottom plate 4 of the product. The horizontal plate of the flat pressure plate 9 is provided with a waist-shaped groove. The flat pressure plate bolt 10 is provided in the waist-shaped groove. The lower end of the flat pressure plate bolt 10 is threaded to the base 1. The positioning mechanism 2 includes an outer sleeve 6 and a positioning plate 8. The outer sleeve 6 is placed inside the outer shell 3 of the product. The outer side wall of the outer sleeve 6 is fitted with the inner side wall of the outer shell 3. The bottom surface of the outer sleeve 6 is provided with a waist-shaped groove. The positioning plate 8 is placed on the bottom surface of the outer sleeve 6. A positioning plate bolt is screwed onto the positioning plate 8. The positioning plate bolt is located in the waist-shaped groove and its lower end is threaded to the base 1.

[0020] When using this utility model, the base plate 4 of the product is clamped by the clamping mechanism 5, and then the outer shell 3 of the product is moved to the desired position on the base plate 4 by the moving outer sleeve 6. After that, the positioning plate bolts are tightened, and the outer shell 3 and the base plate 4 are positioned by the positioning plate 8 and then welded.

[0021] The upper end of the base 1 is provided with multiple transverse grooves and multiple longitudinal grooves extending through its thickness direction. The flat plate bolts 10 are respectively set in the corresponding transverse grooves or longitudinal grooves to realize the transverse / longitudinal movement of the flat plate 9. It can be finely adjusted according to the base plate 4 of different sizes and shapes, increasing versatility and flexibility.

[0022] The contact surface of the planar pressure plate 9 is provided with an elastic adaptive layer (such as a spring array / air cushion structure). When pressing the base plate 4 of different thicknesses, the elastic adaptive layer automatically compensates for the gap through deformation, avoids local stress concentration, and maintains uniform pressing force.

[0023] The contact surface of the flat pressure plate 9 is provided with a thermal expansion self-compensating clamping structure, such as a bimetallic strip compensation layer. When the equipment operates in a high-temperature environment, the bimetallic strip bends towards the base plate 4 to offset the decrease in clamping force caused by the thermal expansion of the metal material. Under low-temperature conditions, the compensation layer returns to a flat state to avoid overpressure. The clamping force fluctuation rate is reduced to within ±3%; the applicable temperature range is extended to -20℃ to 120℃.

[0024] The waist-shaped groove is equipped with a buffer layer (rubber damping layer or hydraulic buffer) to absorb the impact vibration when the positioning plate bolts are tightened, and reduce the risk of mechanism loosening caused by high-frequency vibration.

[0025] A handle 7 is installed at the upper end of the outer sleeve 6.

[0026] The handle 7 is hinged to the outer sleeve 6 and is designed to be foldable for storage. When not in use, the handle 7 can be stored away to reduce the space occupied by the equipment.

[0027] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0028] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
