Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive manufacturing equipment technology, specifically relating to a projection welding machine for automotive stamping parts. Background Technology

[0002] Projection welding machines are among the most commonly used welding equipment in the automotive industry. Their working principle is as follows: a cylinder or other pressurizing mechanism drives the upper electrode rod downwards, pressing the workpiece between the upper and lower electrodes. A welding current is then applied, forming a weld nugget on the workpiece. The upper electrode rod then returns, completing the welding process. However, due to the varying shapes, sizes, and thicknesses of automotive stampings, the clamping components of existing projection welding machines cannot effectively hold and fix these parts, leading to displacement during welding. This affects welding accuracy and product quality, hindering production. Therefore, a projection welding machine for automotive stampings is needed to solve these technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned deficiencies in existing technologies, this utility model provides a projection welding machine for automotive stamping parts. The machine body includes an upper electrode rod that moves vertically and a lower electrode rod that cooperates with the upper electrode rod. The lower electrode rod is fixed to the machine body via a connecting plate. A support platform is provided on the lower electrode rod, and two cooperating clamping members are provided on the support platform. A vertical telescopic rod is connected to the bottom of each clamping member. A linear module is provided on the support platform corresponding to the vertical telescopic rod, and the lower end of the vertical telescopic rod is mounted on the slide of the linear module. By fixing the automotive stamping part to be welded using the two clamping members, the stability of the automotive stamping part during the welding process is improved, the welding accuracy is increased, and the projection welding effect is enhanced.

[0004] Preferably, the vertical telescopic rod is an electric push rod or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0005] Preferably, the clamping component includes a horizontal plate with a bracket fixed on it. A bidirectional screw is mounted on the bracket, with both ends of the screw rotatably connected to the ends of the bracket via bearings. One end of the screw is connected to a forward / reverse motor. Slider blocks are threaded into the forward and reverse threaded sections of the screw, respectively. Limit blocks are fixedly connected to each of the two sliders. Guide grooves are provided on the brackets corresponding to the two limit blocks, parallel to the bidirectional screw. One side of each limit block is slidably disposed within the guide groove. Vertical fixing plates are fixed to each slider, and horizontal telescopic rods are mounted on the fixing plates. Clamping plates are connected to the telescopic ends of the horizontal telescopic rods, and the clamping plates of the two clamping components face each other. By rotating the forward / reverse motor, the two sliders on the bidirectional screw can move towards or away from each other, thereby adjusting the position between the two clamping plates. The distance between the two clamping plates of the two clamping components can be flexibly adjusted as needed to accommodate automotive stamping parts of different sizes and shapes. The extension and retraction of the horizontal telescopic rods effectively clamps the automotive stamping parts.

[0006] Preferably, the horizontal telescopic rod is an electric push rod or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0007] Preferably, the bracket is a U-shaped bracket.

[0008] This utility model also includes other components that enable the projection welding machine for automotive stamping parts to operate normally, such as the control components for the projection welding machine body, the control components for the forward and reverse motors, the control components for the electric push rod, the control components for the hydraulic cylinder, and the control components for the linear module, all of which are conventional technical means in the art. Furthermore, devices or components not limited in this utility model, such as the linear module, bidirectional screw, electric push rod, hydraulic cylinder, upper electrode rod, and lower electrode rod, all employ conventional technical means and conventional equipment in the art.

[0009] Working principle: During projection welding, based on the size, thickness, and shape of the automotive stamping part to be projected, the length of the vertical telescopic rod is first adjusted appropriately to match the height of the clamping parts with the automotive stamping part, the upper electrode rod, and the lower electrode rod. Then, the automotive stamping part is placed between the two clamping parts. Two forward and reverse motors rotate, driving two bidirectional screws to rotate. Based on the size of the automotive stamping part, the distance between the two clamping plates on each clamping part is adjusted appropriately. Subsequently, the horizontal telescopic rod extends, so that the clamping plates of the two clamping parts hold the automotive stamping part stably, and the machine housing performs the projection welding operation.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: it can stably clamp and fix automotive stamping parts, improve the stability of automotive stamping parts during the welding process, improve welding accuracy, and help improve projection welding effect; it can effectively clamp automotive stamping parts of different sizes, shapes, and thicknesses, and has a wide range of applications.
