[0028] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 3 This application will be described in further detail below.

[0029] A cabinet frame welding workstation, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The system includes a bracket 1, a first linear guide rail 2, and clamping plates 3. Two brackets 1 are provided, symmetrically arranged and both mounted on the first linear guide rail 2. The first linear guide rail 2 drives the two brackets 1 to move towards each other. The clamping plates 3 are located on the sides of the two brackets 1 that are close to each other. As the first linear guide rail 2 moves the two brackets 1 closer together, the clamping plates 3 clamp the cabinet frame 60 located between the two brackets 1. In this embodiment, the first linear guide rail 2 is a linear guide rail with dual output ends, and the two brackets 1 are fixed one-to-one with the two output ends of the first linear guide rail 2.

[0030] Each bracket 1 is fixedly connected to a rotating component 4, and each rotating component 4 is fixedly connected to a corresponding clamping plate 3. By rotating the rotating component 4, the clamping plate 3 is driven to rotate, thereby enabling the two clamping plates 3 to drive the clamped cabinet frame 60 to rotate, thus facilitating welding. In this embodiment, the rotating component 4 is a motor.

[0031] A welding robot 5 is installed on one side of the first linear guide rail 2. The welding robot 5 welds the cabinet frame 60. Specifically, a third linear guide rail 6 is installed on one side of the first linear guide rail 2. The third linear guide rail 6 is arranged parallel to the first linear guide rail 2. The welding robot 5 is fixed at the output end of the third linear guide rail 6. The third linear guide rail 6 drives the welding robot 5 to move back and forth.

[0032] During welding, the third linear guide 6 first moves the welding robot 5 to a welding position on the cabinet 60. After welding is completed at this position, the third linear guide 6 moves the welding robot 5 to another welding position on the cabinet 60 for welding. After welding is completed, the rotating component 4 drives the clamping plate 3 to rotate, thereby causing the clamped cabinet 60 to rotate, so that the other position to be welded rotates to correspond with the welding robot 5. The above process is repeated until the cabinet 60 is welded.

[0033] The first linear guide 2 is fixedly connected to the feeding plate 7 in the middle. The feeding plate 7 is located between the two supports 1. Before the clamping plate 3 clamps the cabinet 60, the cabinet 60 can be temporarily placed on the feeding plate 7 for easy clamping of the cabinet 60 by the clamping plate 3.

[0034] A loading platform 8 is fixedly connected to the side of the first linear guide rail 2 away from the third linear guide rail 6. The position of the loading platform 8 corresponds to the position of the loading plate 7. The cabinet frame 60 can move from the position of the loading platform 8 to the position of the loading plate 7 to facilitate loading of materials into the cabinet frame 60. A support plate 9 is provided on the loading platform 8. The support plate 9 is slidably mounted on the loading platform 8 and can slide from the loading platform 8 to the loading plate 7. A clamping device 10 is provided on the support plate 9. The clamping device 10 is used to clamp the cabinet frame 60 to prevent the cabinet frame 60 from loosening during the welding process, which could cause the actual welding position to not correspond to the predetermined welding position.

[0035] In this embodiment, the sliding of the support plate 9 can be achieved by pushing it with an electric telescopic rod or a telescopic hydraulic cylinder. In other embodiments, the sliding of the support plate 9 can also be achieved manually or by a conveyor belt.

[0036] The support plate 9 is provided with several limiting rods 40. The limiting rods 40 are arranged in a rectangle and are arranged around the cabinet frame 60. The limiting rods 40 are used to limit and clamp the cabinet frame 60. Then, the clamping device 10 fixes the profile on the cabinet frame 60 to the limiting rods 40, thereby completing the limiting and clamping of the cabinet frame 60.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 A cabinet frame welding workstation also includes a connecting device 20, which is used to connect the limiting rod 40 and the support plate 9 or the limiting rod 40 and the clamping plate 3. Specifically, the cabinet frame 60 is first placed on the support plate 9, and then the limiting rods 40 are distributed around the cabinet frame 60. The limiting rods 40 and the support plate 9 are connected through the connecting device 20. At this time, the cabinet frame 60 is clamped by the cooperation of the limiting rods 40, the support plate 9 and the clamping device 10. Then, the support plate 9 is pushed to slide onto the loading platform 8. At this time, the first linear guide rail 2 drives the two clamping plates 3 to move towards each other until the limiting rods 40 are clamped, that is, the cabinet frame 60 is clamped. At this time, the connecting device 20 releases the limiting rods 40 from the support plate 9 and fixes the limiting rods 40 and the clamping plates 3 to each other, so that the clamping plates 3 clamp and fix the cabinet frame 60. Then, the support plate 9 is reset onto the loading platform 8, and the welding work can begin.

[0038] The connecting device 20 includes a first electromagnet 201, a connecting block 202, a magnetic plate 203, and a second electromagnet 204. Each limiting rod 40 has a connecting block 202 fixedly connected to its bottom end, and each connecting block 202 has a first electromagnet 201 fixedly connected to its bottom surface. The support plate 9 is made of a magnetically absorbable material; in this embodiment, it can be made of iron. When the limiting rod 40 is placed on the support plate 9, the first electromagnet 201 abuts against the support plate 9. After all the limiting rods 40 surround and press against the cabinet frame 60, the first electromagnets 201 are activated, causing several of them to adhere to the support plate 9, thereby fixing the limiting rod 40. Then, the clamping device 10 is used to fix the profiles on the cabinet frame 60, thus fixing the cabinet frame 60.

[0039] In other embodiments, the first electromagnet 201 can be disposed on the support plate 9, and the connecting block 202 can be made of a magnetic material, such as iron. The first electromagnet 201 attracts the connecting block 202, thereby realizing the mutual connection between the limiting rod 40 and the support plate 9.

[0040] The connecting block 202 and the upper end of the limiting rod 40 are both fixedly connected to the magnetic suction plate 203. Each support plate 9 is provided with two second electromagnets 204. The two second electromagnets 204 correspond to the positions of the two magnetic suction plates 203 on the limiting rod 40. When the two clamping plates 3 are close to each other, the second electromagnets 204 and the corresponding magnetic suction plates 203 are in contact with each other. At this time, the second electromagnets 204 are energized and the first electromagnet 201 is de-energized, thereby realizing the mutual fixation of the limiting rod 40 and the clamping plate 3 and the separation of the limiting rod 40 and the support plate 9. Then, the support plate 9 is reset, and welding work can be carried out.

[0041] Furthermore, a first telescopic member 205 is also provided between the second electromagnet 204 and the clamping plate 3. Each second electromagnet 204 corresponds to two first telescopic members 205. Both first telescopic members 205 are set on the clamping plate 3, and their output ends are respectively fixed to the two ends of the second electromagnet 204. By extending the first telescopic member 205, the second electromagnet 204 is brought closer to the magnetic plate 203, and the second electromagnet 204 clamps the cabinet frame 60 more tightly, reducing the possibility of the cabinet frame 60 falling between the two clamping plates 3. In this embodiment, the first telescopic member 205 is an electric telescopic rod or a telescopic hydraulic cylinder.

[0042] Furthermore, each clamping plate 3 is equipped with a second linear guide rail 30, which is fixed to the clamping plate 3. The first telescopic member 205 is fixed to the output end of the second linear guide rail 30 via a connecting plate. The second linear guide rail 30 is a linear guide rail with two output ends. By moving the first telescopic member 205, the second electromagnets 204 on the same clamping plate 3 are moved towards each other. This allows for adjustment of the distance between the two second electromagnets 204, facilitating adaptation to the size of the cabinet frame 60.

[0043] After the cabinet frame 60 is clamped, the second electromagnet 204 can be moved upward by the second linear guide rail 30, thereby moving the cabinet frame 60 away from the loading plate 7, thus facilitating the rotation and welding of the cabinet frame 60.

[0044] At least four clamping devices 10 are provided, and the at least four clamping devices 10 are arranged in a rectangular pattern. Each clamping device 10 includes a second telescopic member 101 and a fixing plate 102. The second telescopic member 101 is fixed to the limiting rod 40 by a connecting plate. The fixing plate 102 is fixed to the output end of the second telescopic member 101, and the two ends of the fixing plate 102 correspond to the upper and lower profiles of the cabinet frame 60, respectively. There is a gap between the fixing plate 102 and the limiting plate, and the cabinet frame 60 can be placed in the gap. Then, by the contraction of the second telescopic member 101, the fixing plate 102 and the limiting rod 40 fix the upper and lower profiles of the cabinet frame 60, thereby achieving the fixation of the cabinet frame 60.

[0045] Furthermore, to facilitate the placement of the cabinet frame 60 between several limiting rods 40, the fixing plate 102 is detachably connected to the output end of the second telescopic member 101. When placing the cabinet frame 60, the fixing plate 102 is first removed. After the cabinet frame 60 is placed, the fixing plate 102 is then fixed to the output end of the second telescopic member 101. In this embodiment, the fixing plate 102 and the output end of the second telescopic member 101 are detachably connected by bolts. The second telescopic member 101 is an electric telescopic rod or a telescopic cylinder.

[0046] Furthermore, a connecting rod 50 is provided between adjacent limiting rods 40. Several limiting rods 40 can be fixedly connected to each other through the connecting rod 50 to form a whole. In this embodiment, the connecting rod 50 is detachably connected to the limiting rod 40 by bolts. After the position of the limiting rod 40 is fixed, several limiting rods 40 are fixedly connected together through the connecting rod 50 to reduce the occurrence of displacement of the limiting rod 40.

[0047] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Identical components are represented by the same reference numerals. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
