[0029] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0030] like Figure 2 The diagram shows the washers and gaskets to be welded. Both gasket 1 and washer 2 are annular. Gasket 1 is a tinplate washer, and washer 2 is a brass mesh ring. Gasket 1 has a raised ring 11 in the middle for washer 2 to be fitted on, and the upper end face of gasket 1 has several protrusions 12. Gasket 1 and washer 2 are pressed together so that the protrusions 12 are embedded in washer 2, and gasket 1 and washer 2 are reinforced by welding.

[0031] In this washer, the protrusion 12 on washer 1 can be pre-positioned with the center hole of washer 2. The protrusion 12 on washer 1 can also be embedded inside washer 1 when washer 1 and washer 2 are pressed together, forming a stable and non-slip structure. Finally, washer 1 and washer 2 are reinforced by welding.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, this utility model provides an automated medium-frequency welding equipment for brass mesh rings and tinplate washers, aiming to achieve a high-efficiency and low-cost welding process for washers and gaskets. The equipment includes a frame 3, with a turntable 4 mounted on top of the frame 3. The rotation mechanism of the turntable 4 connects different processes in series, thereby achieving a continuous production flow. The turntable 4 is connected to a turntable drive device (e.g., a motor), which can precisely control the rotation speed and position of the turntable, ensuring that each fixture 5 arrives at the corresponding workstation for operation at the appropriate time.

[0033] The fixtures 5 are evenly distributed around the turntable 4, and each fixture can hold the gasket 1 and the washer 2. With the help of the fixtures 5, the turntable can automatically transfer the gasket 1 and the washer 2 to each process, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency.

[0034] Each fixture 5 is equipped with multiple receiving slots, meaning it has a multi-station characteristic. This embodiment can weld two washers and gaskets simultaneously.

[0035] The equipment incorporates multiple automated processes around the turntable 4. The first is the gasket feeding device 6, which automatically transfers the gaskets 1 to the clamps 5 on the turntable. The gasket feeding device 6 ensures accurate positioning and rapid feeding of the gaskets, avoiding errors and delays that may occur with traditional feeding methods.

[0036] Next is the washer feeding device 7, which functions similarly to the gasket feeding device. It is responsible for automatically feeding the washer 2 into the fixture 5 and ensuring proper fit with the gasket 1.

[0037] After washer 2 and gasket 1 are successfully mated, the pressing device 8 presses them together to ensure a tight fit before welding. This device is pneumatically or electrically driven and can provide stable pressure to ensure that there is no displacement or loosening during the welding process, further improving the welding quality.

[0038] Subsequently, welding device 9 will weld the pressed gaskets and washers. Welding device 9 can employ laser welding, ultrasonic welding, or spot welding, selecting the appropriate welding technology based on different materials and application requirements. The entire welding process is controlled by a computer system, which can monitor welding parameters in real time to ensure the quality and consistency of each weld point.

[0039] Finally, the welded finished product will be automatically conveyed to the next process or packaging area via the unloading device 10. The unloading device 10 is designed to improve product transfer efficiency and reduce dwell time on the production line.

[0040] The entire welding process is fully automated, greatly improving production efficiency and product quality. Compared with traditional manual welding methods, this equipment not only reduces labor costs but also minimizes quality fluctuations caused by human factors. Therefore, the automated welding equipment provided by this invention will bring significant economic benefits and technological advancements to the production of gaskets and washers.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the gasket feeding device 6 is designed to achieve an efficient and reliable automatic feeding process for the gaskets 1. The device includes a first vibratory feeder 61, which transmits the bulk gaskets 1 to its output end via vibration. The first vibratory feeder 61 arranges the gaskets 1 in an orderly manner through vibration, ensuring their smooth transfer in subsequent processes.

[0042] The first vibratory plate 61 has a first base 62 at its output end, and a pad track 63 is provided on the first base 62. The track provides guidance and transmission path for the pad 1, enabling it to move smoothly.

[0043] At the end of the shim track 63, a first limiting component 64 is provided for limiting the foremost shim 1. This limiting component typically includes a limiting rod 641 located at the end of the shim track 63. The limiting rod can be controlled by a limiting actuator (usually a cylinder) to achieve the extension and retraction function of the limiting rod. When the shim 1 reaches the end of the track, the limiting rod 641 extends into the shim track 63, accurately positioning and restricting the movement of the shim 1, thereby preventing misalignment or confusion of the shim in subsequent operations.

[0044] The rear of the pad track 63 is also provided with a first intercepting component 65 for intercepting other pads 1. This component typically includes an intercepting lever 651 that can extend into or out of the pad track 63. The movement of the intercepting lever 651 is controlled by an intercepting actuator (usually a cylinder). When the preceding pad 1 is removed, the intercepting lever 651 automatically extends outward to prevent other pads 1 from entering the track at will, ensuring that only one pad 1 can move smoothly to the clamping component for extraction at a time.

[0045] Above the gasket track 63, a first clamping assembly 66 is provided for picking up and placing the gasket 1. The first clamping assembly 66 can grip the gasket from the gasket track 63 and transfer it into the fixture 5. The clamping assembly includes a first clamping seat 661 and a first two-axis moving module 662 for driving the first clamping seat 661 to move up and down and in and out. The moving module can be a cylinder moving module or a ball screw moving module, which can achieve precise vertical and horizontal movement. The first clamping seat 661 is provided with a first insert 663 that can be inserted into the center hole of the gasket 1. This design ensures that the clamping assembly can firmly grip the gasket 1. In order to smoothly eject the gasket 1 and place it into the fixture 5, the first clamping assembly is also equipped with a first ejector rod 664 for ejecting the gasket 1 downward. The ejector rod 664 is provided with a first ejector driver 665, which is usually a cylinder, for driving its lifting and lowering. Through the coordinated operation of these components, the feeding device can achieve efficient and precise automatic feeding of gasket 1, ensuring the smooth progress of subsequent welding processes.

[0046] Similarly, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the washer feeding device 7 includes a second vibratory plate 71 and a second base 72 located at the output end of the second vibratory plate 71. The second base 72 is provided with a washer track 73. The end of the washer track 73 is provided with a second limiting component 74 for limiting the foremost washer 2. The rear part of the washer track 73 is provided with a second intercepting component 75 for intercepting the remaining washer 2. The top of the washer track 73 is provided with a second clamping component 76 for picking up and placing the washer 2.

[0047] The second limiting component 74 includes a limiting rod 741 and a limiting actuator 742 (preferably a cylinder); the second intercepting component 75 includes an intercepting rod 751 and an intercepting actuator 752 (preferably a cylinder).

[0048] Furthermore, the second clamping assembly 76 includes a second clamping seat 761 and a second two-axis moving module 762 for driving the second clamping seat 761 to move up and down and in and out. The second clamping seat 761 is provided with a jaw 763 that can be inserted into the center hole of the washer 2 and open to clamp the washer 2, and a clamping driver 764 (preferably a cylinder) for driving the jaw 763 to open and close.

[0049] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, the pressing device 8 includes a pressing bracket 81, on which a pressing head 82 is mounted, and a pressing actuator 83 (preferably a cylinder) for driving the pressing head 82 to rise and fall. The pressing head 82 is designed with the shape and size of the washer 2 and the gasket 1 in mind, and its shape is generally matched to the contact surface of the washer and the gasket to maximize the contact area and ensure uniform pressure distribution. In addition, the pressing device 8 may also be equipped with some auxiliary functions, such as pressure sensors and position sensors, to monitor the pressing status and position in real time. These sensors can feed the data back to the control system to ensure the accuracy and stability of the pressing process, thereby optimizing the entire welding process.

[0050] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 As shown, the welding device 9 is designed to achieve precise welding of the washer 2 to ensure the strength and reliability of the weld joint. The welding device includes a welding support 91, above which is a pressure head 92. The main function of the pressure head 92 is to firmly press the washer 2 into the welding position, thereby ensuring that the welding torch 94 can accurately apply heat and pressure during the welding process. The design of the pressure head 92 takes into account the size of the center hole of the washer 2, enabling efficient insertion of the second insert 95 into the center hole of the washer to ensure accurate positioning.

[0051] In order to achieve the lifting and lowering movement of the top pressure head 92, the welding device 9 is equipped with a top pressure driver 93, which is usually a cylinder or an electric drive.

[0052] The welding apparatus 9 also includes a welding torch 94 for welding. Before welding, the welding torch 94 presses the washer 2 tightly with the support of the pressure head 92, and can stably apply heat so that the material reaches a molten state at the welding point, thereby forming a strong weld joint.

[0053] The top pressure head 92 is provided with a second insert 95 that can be inserted into the center hole of the washer 2. The design of this insert ensures good connection between the top pressure head and the washer, so that it can remain stable during the welding process.

[0054] In addition, the top pressure head 92 is equipped with a second ejector rod 96, which is responsible for ejecting the washer 2 after welding. This ejector rod is equipped with a second ejector actuator 97 for driving its lifting and lowering, typically a cylinder or electric device, to ensure a fast and accurate ejection process.

[0055] Of course, the welding device 9 adopts a dual-station medium-frequency welding method, which can perform welding operations on two groups of products at the same time.

[0056] Furthermore, such as Figure 9 As shown, the unloading device 10 is designed to achieve efficient unloading of materials or workpieces, thereby improving the automation level and work efficiency of the production line. The unloading device includes a stable unloading base 101, above which unloading grippers 102 are provided. The main function of the unloading grippers 102 is to clamp and release the workpiece to be unloaded, so as to smoothly transfer it to the next process.

[0057] The unloading device 10 also includes an unloading slide 103, which provides a smooth transition channel for the unloaded workpiece so that it can slide smoothly into the next process.

[0058] To achieve the lifting and lowering movement of the unloading gripper 102, the device is equipped with a lifting driver 104, typically consisting of a cylinder or an electric motor. Precise control of the lifting driver 104 ensures that the unloading gripper 102 performs clamping and releasing operations at the appropriate height, improving the accuracy and stability of the unloading process.

[0059] In addition, a rotary driver 105 is provided to enable the inward and outward rotation of the unloading jaws 102. This design allows the unloading jaws 102 to be adjusted according to the shape and position of the specific workpiece during the unloading process, improving the flexibility of unloading.

[0060] Furthermore, the unloading gripper 102 is equipped with a main shaft 106, and a rotating sleeve 107 is sleeved on the main shaft 106, rotating synchronously with it and capable of relative axial movement. The structural design of the rotating sleeve allows it to move to a certain extent without affecting the clamping force, so as to adapt to the unloading requirements of different workpieces. The rotating sleeve 107 is rotatably connected to the unloading base 101. At the same time, a gear and rack structure 108 is provided between the rotating sleeve 107 and the rotary driver 105, realizing efficient power transmission between the rotary driver and the rotating sleeve.

[0061] Furthermore, a rotary joint 109 is provided between the output end of the lifting drive 104 and the main shaft 106. This rotary joint design ensures that the main shaft maintains stable rotation during lifting motion, unaffected by the lifting movement. This combination of structures enables the unloading device 10 to operate efficiently in complex environments, ensuring the smooth operation of the production process.

[0062] In summary, the unloading device 10 achieves rapid and precise unloading of workpieces through the efficient collaboration of the unloading base 101, unloading gripper 102, lifting driver 104, rotary driver 105, and their auxiliary components. This design not only optimizes the production line workflow but also greatly enhances the level of automation, providing strong support for subsequent production processes.
