In addition, in the environment of multi-batch and large-scale production, the production capacity of single-station welding equipment is limited, which is difficult to meet the needs of modern manufacturing for high-efficiency automatic welding.

[0004] To solve the above problems, multi-station rotary welding machines have been gradually developed in the industry, and the core feature is to use a multi-station rotary table structure to enable the to-be-welded cutter to rotate to different stations for continuous welding in sequence, combined with automatic feeding, positioning and welding system, to greatly improve the welding efficiency and quality. However, there are still many optimization spaces in the structure design and automation degree of existing multi-station welding equipment, for example:

[0005] Insufficient automation in the welding process: some equipment still needs manual intervention to complete the feeding, positioning or post-welding removal of the cutter, which is difficult to form a fully automated production process.

[0023] Embodiment:

[0024] Reference Figures 1-2The utility model provides a kind of multi-station rotary welding machine of hard alloy cutter, including support seat 1, workbench 2, welding device 3, fixed groove 4, rotary pedestal 5, telescopic link 51, gripper 52, first conveying device 6, second conveying device 7 and rotary table 8, the top of the support seat 1 is fixedly connected workbench 2;Workbench 2 upper position is equipped with first conveying device 6 and second conveying device 7, and welding device 3 is arranged in workbench 2 upper end both sides;Rotary table 8 is provided in the central region of workbench 2, and fixed groove 4 is provided on rotary table 8, and rotary table 8 can be indexed rotation under the driving of rotary device;Rotary pedestal 5 is provided on one side of rotary table 8, and rotary pedestal 5 is equipped with telescopic link 51 for up-down and front-back telescopic motion, and gripper 52 is installed at the end of telescopic link 51, for grabbing and placing hard alloy cutter.

[0025] More specifically, as shown in Figure 1 Support seat 1 is the body base, and the whole constitutes the bearing and installation base of equipment;Workbench 2 is fixed above support seat 1, for installing the transmission, rotation and fixture etc. functional components of welding machine. Workbench 2 side is provided with first conveying device 6, and the other side is provided with second conveying device 7, and first conveying device 6 and second conveying device 7 are respectively used to send the hard alloy cutter to be welded and output the cutter welded, and the direction of feeding and discharging can be set according to specific requirements, so that the transmission flow of cutter on workbench 2 is more smooth. The welding process is mainly completed by welding device 3, and the welding device 3 is fixed on workbench 2, which can effectively weld the hard alloy cutter positioned on rotary table 8.

[0026] In the above embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 Rotary table 8 is used in cooperation with rotary pedestal 5, and driving mechanism is arranged in rotary pedestal 5, which can drive telescopic link 51 and gripper 52 installed thereon to rotate and grab. The top of rotary table 8 can be provided with multiple stations according to the shape of cutter and welding requirements, and each station can correspond to welding device 3 when rotating to a predetermined position, to complete the welding operation of hard alloy cutter.

[0027] More specifically, as shown in Figure 1 Telescopic link 51 and gripper 52 jointly constitute automatic grabbing mechanism. The bottom of telescopic link 51 is connected with rotary pedestal 5, and gripper 52 is installed at the end of telescopic link 51. During work, gripper 52 grabs hard alloy cutter from first conveying device 6 through up-down (or front-back) movement of telescopic link 51, and places the cutter to corresponding station after rotary table 8 is indexed in position;After the completion of cutter welding, gripper 52 transfers the cutter to second conveying device 7, to realize the whole automatic feeding, welding and discharging process.

[0028] On the basis of the above embodiment, the first conveying device 6 and the second conveying device 7 adopt belt, chain or vibrating disc conveying mode, and the specific form can be selected according to the automation degree of the production line and the shape of the tool; the telescopic rod 51 can also be optimized in various structures according to the spatial arrangement of the welding machine and the size of the tool, for example, in the form of a pneumatic cylinder, an electric cylinder or a mechanical sliding table.
