The shaft 24 passes through the aluminum tube 25 and the baffles 26 and is spot-welded to secure it.

[0037] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0038] like Figure 8 As shown, when the damping roller shaft assembly needs to be welded, the tooling is first adjusted according to the product size, including the position of the fixed top platform 1, the movable top platform 2 and the two V-shaped support blocks 6 on the base 3, to ensure that the fixed top platform 1 and the movable top platform 2 are symmetrically arranged relative to the axis 24, and the two V-shaped support blocks 6 are symmetrically arranged relative to the aluminum tube 25. The positioning plate 8 on the V-shaped support block 6 positions the end face of the aluminum tube 25. After the adjustment is appropriate, the locking nuts 11 on the fixed top platform 1, the movable top platform 2 and the two support blocks 6 are tightened.

[0039] Then assemble the shaft assembly. Shaft 24 passes through aluminum tube 25. Two end baffles 26 are fitted on the outside of shaft 24. The two baffles 26 are pushed into the inner stop of the aluminum tube 25, ensuring that the two baffles on the outside of the baffles 26 are inserted into the two slots of the inner stop.

[0040] Then, press down on handle 23, causing the actuating plate 22 to rotate upwards. The actuating plate 22 drives the actuating nut 16 to slide away from the fixed center base 1. The actuating nut 16 drives the movable center 5 to slide away from the fixed center base 1, compressing the spring 17. The spike end of the movable center 5 retracts into the movable center mounting hole. Then, place the shaft assembly into the V-groove of the two support blocks 6, so that the two positioning plates 8 contact the baffles 26 at both ends, thereby positioning the shaft assembly. The shaft 24 is located between the movable center 5 and the fixed center 4. Then, release handle 23. Under the rebound force of spring 17, the movable center 5 slides back towards the fixed center 4, contacting the shaft 24. The movable center 5 and the fixed center 4 are pressed against the center holes at both ends of the shaft 24 by the force of spring 17.

[0041] The shaft 24 is pressed by the movable tip 5 and the fixed tip 4, and the aluminum tube 25 is positioned by the two support blocks 6 and the two positioning plates 8, thus controlling the relative position of the shaft 24 and the aluminum tube 25. The baffle 26 and the shaft 24 are fixed by three-point evenly distributed spot welding with a handheld laser welding machine.

[0042] Finally, press down the handle 23 to disengage the movable tip 5 from the shaft 24, releasing the clamping of the shaft assembly, thus completing the positioning and welding work of a set of shaft assemblies.

[0043] 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 specific 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 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.
