Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of welding fixtures, and more specifically, to a rotary welding machine center alignment adjustment device. Background Technology
[0002] Hydraulic cylinder accessories such as control valve seats, pipe fittings, and fluid supply pipes are important components of the hydraulic cylinder system, and their welding quality directly affects the cylinder's performance and lifespan. To improve efficiency, rotary welding machines can be used to weld the fluid supply pipes and valve seats. However, this method has several drawbacks: the workpiece needs multiple measurements to align its rotation center on the rotary welding machine's worktable; there are no fixed points on the workpiece's worktable, resulting in poor workpiece stability; furthermore, due to the fixed rotation center of the welding torch and the misalignment of the bevel circumference between the fluid supply pipe / valve seat and the welding torch's rotation circumference, the welding torch's direction may deviate from the bevel, compromising weld size and strength, and making weld cracking and leakage highly likely.
[0003] Patent CN119016973B discloses a fire pump impeller machining straightening and shaping device, including a blade synchronous straightening mechanism, a blade straightening control mechanism, an internal support coaxial fastening mechanism, and a rotary welding mechanism. This fire pump impeller machining straightening and shaping device proposes a blade straightening control mechanism. Through a linkage mechanism, when adjusting the outer rotating ring, the inner rotating ring can rotate in tandem. When adjusting the curvature, only the position of the inner straightening rod needs to be adjusted. Furthermore, since the robotic arm needs to rotate during welding of the evenly distributed annular arc-shaped blades, this fire pump impeller machining straightening and shaping device proposes an internal support coaxial fastening mechanism. Through the rotational movement of the robotic arm, the impeller base plate is automatically positioned and locked in place via internal expansion before welding, greatly simplifying the structure and operation steps. However, this fire pump impeller machining and straightening device is a specific device for welding fire pump impellers. It cannot clamp and position the liquid pipe and valve seat, does not improve the concentricity of the bevel circumference of the liquid pipe and valve seat with the rotation circumference of the welding torch, and does not solve the problems of the workpiece not being able to be fixed, poor stability, difficulty in adjustment and alignment, and inability to guarantee welding accuracy. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problem of difficulty in adjusting and aligning the liquid-conducting pipe and the inability to guarantee welding accuracy due to the lack of specialized fixtures when welding the liquid-conducting pipe onto the control valve seat and pipe fitting seat, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a rotary welding machine center alignment adjustment device, including a bottom positioning mechanism, a side positioning mechanism and a two-axis displacement platform;
[0005] The bottom positioning mechanism or the side positioning mechanism can be detachably installed on the top of the two-axis displacement platform;
[0006] The bottom positioning mechanism is used to clamp the control valve seat liquid inlet pipe to be welded.
[0007] The side positioning mechanism is used to clamp the liquid-passing pipe to be welded from the pipe joint seat.
[0008] The two-axis displacement platform is used to drive the bottom positioning mechanism or the side positioning mechanism to move left and right and forward and backward, so that the weld circumference of the control valve seat liquid pipe to be welded is concentric with the welding torch rotation circumference, or so that the weld circumference of the pipe joint seat liquid pipe to be welded is concentric with the welding torch rotation circumference.

[0010] Based on the above, the two-axis displacement platform includes a lower base, a lower slider, an upper base, and an upper fixed base plate. The upper base is connected to the lower slider and is located directly above the lower base.
[0011] The lower slider is slidably disposed within the lower base; the upper fixed base plate is slidably disposed within the upper base, and the sliding direction of the lower slider is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the upper fixed base plate.
[0012] Based on the above, in order to facilitate the smooth sliding of the lower slider and the upper fixed base plate, guide rods for guiding are respectively provided in the lower base and the upper base.
[0013] Based on the above, in order to be used in conjunction with a rotary welding machine, the bottom of the lower base is provided with a lower base mounting boss for use with the rotary welding machine.
[0014] Based on the above, the positioning hole is located at the center of the upper fixed base plate.
[0015] Based on the above, in order to facilitate installation, the top of the bottom positioning mechanism is provided with a control valve seat fixing boss that cooperates with the control valve seat.
[0016] Based on the above, the side positioning mechanism includes a connecting base plate and a positioning side plate. The positioning side plate is perpendicular to the connecting base plate. The bottom of the connecting base plate is provided with the positioning protrusion. The connecting base plate is detachably connected to the upper fixed seat plate through the positioning protrusion.
[0017] Based on the above, in order to improve the versatility of the side positioning mechanism and enable it to clamp pipe fittings of different sizes and specifications, the connecting base plate is provided with an assembly strip hole, which is used to adjust the installation position of the positioning side plate; the positioning side plate is provided with a vertical strip hole, which is used to adjust the position of the pipe fitting installed on the positioning side plate.
[0018] Based on the above, in order to facilitate the assembly and connection of the positioning side plate and the connecting base plate, a positioning strip is provided at the bottom of the positioning side plate, and an assembly slot for cooperating with the positioning strip is provided on the connecting base plate.

Specifically, the rotary welding machine center alignment adjustment device provided by this utility model provides a two-axis displacement platform that can move forward and backward and left and right. It also designs a bottom positioning mechanism and a side positioning mechanism that can be used in conjunction with the two-axis displacement platform. After the bottom positioning mechanism and the side positioning mechanism are installed on the two-axis displacement platform, the workpiece clamped in the bottom positioning mechanism and the side positioning mechanism can be aligned by adjusting the left and right position and the forward and backward position of the two-axis displacement platform. This ensures the concentricity of the working circumference and the rotation circumference of the welding torch and avoids welding deviation.
[0020] Furthermore, by integrating the structures of the bottom positioning mechanism and the side positioning mechanism, the side positioning mechanism is designed as a connection between the base plate and the positioning side plate. This allows the bottom positioning mechanism and the connecting base plate to be assembled and fixed using a single upper fixed seat plate, improving the versatility of the two-axis displacement platform. This enables the platform to complete the centering adjustment and clamping when welding the control valve seat to the liquid pipe during the installation of the bottom positioning mechanism, and to complete the centering adjustment and clamping when welding the pipe joint seat to the liquid pipe during the installation of the side positioning mechanism.
[0021] Furthermore, by opening mounting slots on the connecting base plate of the bottom positioning mechanism and vertical slots on the positioning side plate, the position of the positioning side plate on the connecting base plate and the position of the pipe fitting seat on the positioning side plate can be adjusted according to the size of the pipe fitting seat, thus satisfying the welding work of valve seat liquid passage pipes of different types, models and sizes.
[0022] Therefore, applying this rotary welding machine center alignment adjustment device to the liquid pipe valve seat welding machine production line can solve the problems of workpieces being unable to be fixed, poor stability, and difficulty in adjustment and alignment, thus ensuring welding accuracy. It improves the concentricity of the bevel circumference of the liquid pipe and valve seat with the rotation circumference of the welding torch, avoids welding deviation, and improves welding quality and efficiency.
