[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Example

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 6This utility model provides a technical solution: a workpiece clamping mechanism for a welding production line, including a welding workbench, a welding frame 1 with support legs D installed at the bottom near the corner, a fixed plate 21 installed between opposing support legs D, and support plates 22 connected to the fixed plate 21 at both ends. The fixed plate 21 is combined with the welding frame 1 and the support plate 22 by conventional methods. The support plate 22 supports the lifting electric push rod 31. The lifting mechanism includes the lifting electric push rod 31 connected to the support plate 22 at the bottom, a fixed plate 33 connected to the top of the lifting electric push rod 31, and a support turntable 32 rotatably connected to the fixed plate 33. When the lifting electric push rod 31 is running, the fixed plate 33, the support turntable 32 and the workpiece placement plate 4 move vertically upward, which can achieve the function of lifting the workpiece C at different heights. The outer surface of the support turntable 32 is provided with a fixed round edge 321. The fixed round edge 321 and the support turntable 32 are combined by conventional methods to limit the position of the limiting plate 53. The limiting mechanism for clamping workpiece C includes a workpiece placement plate 4 whose bottom surface is connected to the support turntable 32, a support rod 6 that supports workpiece C, and a clamping assembly. The clamping assembly includes a stabilizing rod 71 installed inside the support rod 6, a contraction spring 72 sleeved on the outer side of one end of the stabilizing rod 71, a compression block 73 that slides along the axial direction of the stabilizing rod 71, a rotating ring 741 rotatably sleeved on the outer side of the compression block 73, and a clamping plate 74 whose one end is connected to the outer surface of the rotating ring 741. Workpiece C is placed inside the workpiece placement plate 4, and the top surface of the workpiece placement plate 4 is flush with the bottom surface of the workpiece C. The clamping plate 74 rotates about the rotating ring 741 as an axis. Under the elastic force of the contraction spring 72, the clamping plate 74 clamps the workpiece C, making it in a firm state. The clamping plate 74 drives the rotating ring 741 and the compression block 73 to move and squeeze the contraction spring 72. The contraction spring 72 can be compressed to change its own length, and contraction springs of different lengths can also be replaced to adapt to workpieces C of different widths.

[0027] In this embodiment, a pressing assembly is provided on the bottom surface of the fixed plate 33. The pressing assembly includes a fixed block 51 connected to the top of the fixed plate 33, a pressing rod 52 rotatably connected to the fixed block 51 at one end, a limiting plate 53 mounted on the pressing rod 52 at one end, and a compression spring 54 connected to the fixed block 51 and the pressing rod 52 at both ends respectively. The fixed block 51 has an "L" shaped structure and a limiting rod 511 inserted into the bottom end of the compression spring 54. After the workpiece C is lifted, one end of the pressing rod 52 is pressed, and the compression spring 54 is compressed. The angle of the workpiece placement plate 4, the support turntable 32, and the workpiece C is rotated to a suitable position. The pressing rod 52 is released. Under the action of the compression spring 54, one end of the limiting plate 53 is inserted into the slot of the fixed round edge 321, thereby limiting the fixed round edge 321 and the support turntable 32, and thus keeping the workpiece placement plate 4, the support turntable 32, and the workpiece C stable. The angle position of the workpiece C can be changed, which is beneficial for welding at different positions and is convenient for operation and use.

[0028] In this embodiment, the pressing rod 52 is provided with a limiting seat 521. The limiting seat 521 includes an inclined plate connected to the surface of the pressing rod 52 and a connecting post inserted into the top of the compression spring 54. The fixed round edge 321 is perpendicular to the pressing rod 52, and the inclined top of the fixed round edge 321 is curved. The limiting seat 521 and the limiting rod 511 serve to limit the compression spring 54 and prevent the compression spring 54 from falling off after being squeezed and deformed.

[0029] In this embodiment, the outer surface of the fixed circular edge 321 is provided with uniformly distributed slots. The curved top end of the limiting plate 53 cooperates with the slots, and one end of the limiting plate 53 is inserted into the slot of the fixed circular edge 321 to limit the fixed circular edge 321 and the supporting turntable 32.

[0030] In this embodiment, a rectangular groove is provided at the center of the surface of the support rod 6, and a groove 61 communicating with the groove is provided on the side surface of the support rod 6. The clamping plate 74 cooperates with the groove 61, and the clamping plate 74 is inserted into the groove 61, thereby limiting the clamping plate 74.

[0031] In this embodiment, the distance between the top surface of the workpiece placement plate 4 and the top surface of the welding stand 1 is the spacing H. The lifting electric push rod 31 extends up and down by the same distance as the spacing H. The top surface of the support rod 6 is curved. The workpiece C is tangent to the surface of the support rod 6. The friction between the workpiece C and the support rod 6 is small, which does not affect the horizontal sliding position of the workpiece C. This facilitates moving the workpiece C to different positions on the welding stand 1 and does not affect the repositioning of the workpiece C in the production line.

[0032] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0033] When welding workpiece C, workpiece C is placed on workpiece placement plate 6, and workpiece C is tangent to the surface of support rod 6. The friction between workpiece C and support rod 6 is small. Adjust the position of workpiece C.

[0034] The clamping plate 74 rotates around the rotating ring 741. Under the elastic force of the contraction spring 72, the clamping plate 74 clamps the workpiece C, making it in a firm state, thus achieving the clamping of the workpiece C.

[0035] The clamping plate 74 drives the rotating ring 741 and the compression block 73 to move and squeeze the contraction spring 72. The contraction spring 72 can be compressed to change its own length, and contraction springs 72 of different lengths can also be replaced to adapt to workpieces C of different widths.

[0036] The operation of the lifting electric actuator 31 causes the fixed plate 33, the support turntable 32 and the workpiece placement plate 4 to move vertically upward, which can lift the workpiece C to a higher position, making it easier to perform welding processing on the suspended end of the workpiece C.

[0037] Press one end of the pressing rod 52, and the compression spring 54 is compressed, rotating the workpiece placement plate 4, the support turntable 32 and the workpiece C to a suitable position.

[0038] Release the pressing rod 52, and under the action of the compression spring 54, one end of the limiting plate 53 is inserted into the slot of the fixed round edge 321, thereby limiting the fixed round edge 321 and the support turntable 32, and thus keeping the workpiece placement plate 4, the support turntable 32 and the workpiece C stable. The angle position of the workpiece C can be changed, which is conducive to welding at different positions and is easy to operate and use.

[0039] After workpiece C is reset, the friction between workpiece C and support rod 6 is small, which does not affect the horizontal sliding position of workpiece C, making it easier to move it to different workpiece placement plates 4 on welding stand 1, without affecting the rearrangement of workpiece C in production line.

[0040] In summary: The design facilitates the adjustment of the position of large-area workpieces. The operation of the lifting electric actuator 31 causes the fixed plate 33, the support turntable 32, and the workpiece placement plate 4 to move vertically upward, which can lift the workpiece C to a higher or lower position. This facilitates welding processing on the suspended end of the workpiece C and moves it to different positions on the workpiece placement plate 4 on the welding stand 1 without affecting the rearrangement of the workpiece C in the production line.

[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described (see the detailed description above), it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
