[0002] Rare earth steel, as a high-performance alloy steel, is widely used in aerospace, automotive manufacturing, and high-end equipment due to its unique physical and chemical properties.

[0037] Example 3: Based on Examples 1 and 2, specifically as follows... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a rare earth steel sheet welding device includes a magnetic clamping and positioning mechanism as described in any of the above-mentioned embodiments and a welding robot 40, wherein the welding robot 40 is disposed inside a rotating base 37. The rare earth steel sheet is welded by the welding robot 40.

[0038] The welding robot 40 is articulated: mimicking the human arm, it adopts a multi-axis linkage design, which has high flexibility and can adapt to complex three-dimensional space weld seam trajectories, such as body welding in automobile manufacturing. It uses a PID control algorithm to adjust the joint speed and position in real time to ensure that the distance error between the welding torch and the weld seam is ≤0.1mm. It introduces trajectory interpolation technology to achieve smooth connection of weld seam transition sections. This is an existing technology and will not be described in detail.

[0039] In summary, the structure of the rotating base 37 and the welding robot 40 achieves the goal of rapid welding of rare earth steel sheets, improving the flexibility of the device, increasing the welding efficiency of rare earth steel sheets, and optimizing the user experience.

[0040] Working principle: After placing the rare earth steel sheet in a suitable position on the fixed base plate 10, start the second electrical control box 21 to energize the first electromagnet 20. When energized, the first electromagnet 20 generates magnetic force, attracting the bottom of the rare earth steel sheet, causing the bottom of the rare earth steel sheet to be in close contact with the top of the first electromagnet 20, thus achieving initial positioning and fixation of the rare earth steel sheet at the bottom. According to the width of the rare earth steel sheet, the first electrical control box 16 is activated, driving the first electric push rod 17 to move, pushing the first slider 13 to move along the first guide plate 15 inside the first slide groove 12, adjusting the position of the first slider 13, and then driving the first limiting plate 14 to move, so that the first limiting plate 14 contacts the two sides of the rare earth steel sheet, achieving the limitation of the two sides of the rare earth steel sheet, preventing the rare earth steel sheet from shifting in the horizontal direction. After the bottom and two sides of the rare earth steel sheet are positioned, the hydraulic cylinder 28 is activated. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 28 drives the hydraulic push rod 31 to descend inside the first fixed sleeve 30, thereby driving the first fixed plate 32 to descend, so that the second electromagnet 33 approaches the top of the rare earth steel sheet. Then, the third control box 34 is activated, drawing power from the power supply box 36 via the first wire 35 to energize the second electromagnet 33. The energized electromagnet 33 generates magnetic force, tightly adhering to the top of the rare earth steel sheet, applying downward pressure to ensure the sheet maintains a stable position during welding. During welding, the first protective plate 23 and the second protective plate 24 surround the welding area, blocking sparks and spatter to prevent harm to the surrounding environment and personnel, thus providing safety protection. The fourth control box 38 and the second wire 39 supply power and control to the rotating base 37. During welding, the fourth control box 38 can control the rotating base 37 to rotate according to welding requirements, thereby rotating the welding robot 40 inside the base 37 to adjust the welding angle and achieve welding at different positions on the rare earth steel sheet. The fixed base plate 10 has a guide groove 25 inside, where the rare earth steel sheet body 26 is placed. The guide trough 25 serves two purposes: firstly, it can temporarily hold the rare earth steel sheet to be welded, facilitating operator access; secondly, it provides initial guidance for the placement of the rare earth steel sheet on the fixed base plate 10, ensuring it is positioned appropriately for subsequent positioning and welding operations. After the rare earth steel sheet is precisely positioned and clamped by the magnetic clamping and positioning mechanism, the welding robot 40 performs welding operations on the rare earth steel sheet using its own welding tools according to the preset welding program and path. Simultaneously, combined with the rotation function of the rotating base 37, the welding robot 40 can flexibly adjust the welding angle to achieve high-quality welding of various parts of the rare earth steel sheet.
