Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of excavator boom welding technology, specifically to an excavator boom welding centering clamping fixture. Background Technology

[0002] The excavator boom is one of the main working components of an excavator. It is responsible for moving the excavator's bucket, grab bucket, and other attachments to the required position to complete earthmoving, transporting, and lifting operations. The boom consists of multiple parts, including the base, boom body, connecting rod, and hydraulic cylinders. Its design and structure determine the excavator's working performance, such as digging depth, working range, and load capacity. The excavator boom bears a huge working load. Welding improves the overall strength and rigidity of the boom by connecting different components, ensuring that it is not easily deformed or damaged during operation. Welding is an important means of connecting the various parts of the boom. Since the boom may experience wear and cracks during long-term use, welding is not only used in the initial manufacturing process but also in the maintenance and repair of the boom to restore its original performance.

[0003] When welding excavator booms, clamping fixtures are required for fixation. However, general clamping fixtures are difficult to effectively center and fix the excavator boom, which is prone to displacement during welding. This can lead to significant errors in the welding position of connecting components, making subsequent assembly difficult. Furthermore, welding position deviations can reduce the strength of the excavator boom, making it more susceptible to damage during use. Excavator booms come in various specifications and sizes depending on usage requirements, and general clamping fixtures have poor adjustability, making them unsuitable for multiple sizes and resulting in low work efficiency. To address these issues, a new excavator boom welding centering clamping fixture is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, a welding centering clamping fixture for excavator booms is provided. This solves the problem that current excavator booms require clamping fixtures for fixation during welding, but these fixtures are often ineffective in effectively centering and fixing the boom. The boom is prone to shifting during welding, leading to significant errors in the welding positions of connecting components. This makes subsequent assembly difficult, reduces the boom's strength, and increases its susceptibility to damage during use. Furthermore, excavator booms come in various specifications and sizes depending on usage requirements, and the poor adjustability of general clamping fixtures makes them unsuitable for multiple boom sizes, resulting in low work efficiency.

An L-shaped mounting plate is fixedly connected to the upper side of the T-shaped slider. An adjusting groove is opened through the middle of the side plate of the L-shaped mounting plate. Clamping plates are slidably connected to the front and rear ends of the adjusting groove. Fixing plates are fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the side plate of the L-shaped mounting plate. An adjusting motor is fixedly installed on the front side of the fixing plate. The output end of the adjusting motor passes through the front side of the fixing plate and is fixedly connected to a bidirectional threaded rod.

[0006] Preferably, the front side of the fixing rod passes through the interior of the mounting hole and is fixedly connected to a knob.

Fixed push rods 5 are fixedly installed at both the front and rear ends of the upper side of the processing platform 1. Adjusting rods 6 are fixedly connected to the output ends of the two sets of fixed push rods 5. Several threaded holes 7 are opened on the front side of the rear adjusting rod 6, and several mounting holes 8 are opened through the front side of the front adjusting rod 6 to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the fixing rods 9. The fixture can fix excavator booms of various sizes. The fixing rods 9 are slidably connected inside the mounting holes 8. The rear end of the fixing rods 9 passes through the interior of the mounting holes 8 and is threadedly connected to the interior of the threaded holes 7. The front side of the fixing rods 9 passes through the interior of the mounting holes 8 and is fixedly connected to a knob 10 to facilitate the installation of the fixing rods 9.

[0020] Specifically, the upper left and right ends of the processing platform 1 have T-shaped grooves 11, and T-shaped sliders 12 are slidably connected inside the T-shaped grooves 11. Adjusting push rods 13 are fixedly installed on both the left and right sides of the processing platform 1 to facilitate the adjustment of the spacing of the L-shaped mounting plates 14 and to fix excavator booms of various sizes in the left and right directions. The output end of the adjusting push rod 13 passes through the outer side of the processing platform 1 and is fixedly connected to the outer side of the T-shaped slider 12. The upper side of the T-shaped slider 12 is fixedly connected to the L-shaped mounting plate 14. A rectangular groove 15 is opened on the upper side of the bottom plate of the L-shaped mounting plate 14 near the adjusting push rod 13. A connecting slider 16 is slidably connected inside the rectangular groove 15. A storage tray 17 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the connecting slider 16 to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the excavator boom in the front and back directions. An adjusting groove 18 is opened through the middle of the side plate of the L-shaped mounting plate 14. Clamping plates 19 are slidably connected at both the front and back ends of the adjusting groove 18.

[0021] Specifically, the front and rear ends of the side plate of the L-shaped mounting plate 14 are fixedly connected to the fixing plates 20. The front side of the front fixing plate 20 is fixedly installed with the adjusting motor 21. The output end of the adjusting motor 21 passes through the front side of the fixing plate 20 and is fixedly connected with the bidirectional threaded rod 22. The front and rear ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 22 have opposite thread directions to ensure that the clamping plates 19 can move synchronously in opposite directions, so that the excavator boom is centered.

[0022] Working principle: Before fixing the excavator boom, the adjusting push rod 13 drives the T-shaped slider 12 and L-shaped mounting plate 14 to move according to the length of the excavator boom, so that both ends of the excavator boom can be placed on the placement tray 17. The adjusting push rod 13 pushes the L-shaped mounting plate 14 inward to fix the excavator boom in the left and right directions. At the same time, the adjusting motor 21 drives the double-threaded rod 22 to rotate. The threads of the double-threaded rod 22 are opposite, and the two clamping plates 19 are symmetrical about the center line. When the double-threaded rod 22 rotates, the clamping plates 19 at the front and rear ends will move inward. The excavator boom and the loading platform 17 move synchronously, centering them in the front-to-back direction. Correspondingly, the support push rod 2 drives the support frame 3 to move upward, so that the support rod 4 abuts against the lower side of the excavator boom for support. After the position of the excavator boom is determined, a suitable mounting hole 8 is selected and the fixing rod 9 is inserted. The knob 10 is turned so that the end of the fixing rod 9 is connected to the corresponding threaded hole 7. After the fixing rod 9 is installed, the fixing push rod 5 drives the adjusting rod 6 to move downward, so that the fixing rod 9 abuts against the upper side of the excavator boom, completing the overall fixing of the excavator boom.
