Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hot melt tapping, and in particular to an integrated hot melt tapping device. Background Technology

[0002] Hot melt tapping is a metalworking technique that uses a hot melt device to melt metal wire and inject it into a pre-drilled hole to form a threaded connection.

[0003] The working principle of thermofusion tapping is as follows: First, holes are pre-drilled in the materials to be joined. Then, a thermofusion device is used to heat the metal wire to its melting point, turning it into a liquid. Next, the molten metal wire is injected into the pre-drilled holes to form a threaded connection. Once the molten metal wire cools and solidifies, a strong connection is achieved.

[0004] Existing hot melt tapping equipment has many problems, such as stress concentration and damage risk in the material during hot melt drilling. When tapping certain car bodies, the efficiency of hot melt tapping is reduced due to the thickness of the sheet metal. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an integrated hot melt tapping device.

[0006] The integrated hot melt tapping device provided by this utility model adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An integrated hot melt tapping device includes a transverse moving assembly, a pre-drilling assembly, a hot melt drilling assembly, and a tapping assembly. The pre-drilling assembly, hot melt drilling assembly, and tapping assembly are all mounted on the transverse moving assembly. The pre-drilling assembly is located on one side of the hot melt drilling assembly. The pre-drilling assembly includes a connecting plate, a connecting box, a motor, a drive wheel, a driven wheel, a belt, a lifting driver, a rotating shaft assembly, and a drill bit. The connecting plate is mounted on the transverse moving assembly, and the connecting box is fixed to the connecting plate. The motor is located inside the connecting box, and its output end is connected to the drive wheel. The drive wheel is connected to the driven wheel via a belt, and the driven wheel drives the rotating shaft assembly to rotate. The rotating shaft assembly is connected to the drill bit, and the lifting driver drives the rotating shaft assembly to move up and down.

[0008] Optionally, the pre-drilled assembly is further provided with a clamping mechanism, which is disposed on the connecting box. The clamping mechanism includes a connecting frame, a cylinder, a push plate, and a pressure block. The connecting frame is disposed on the connecting box, the cylinder is fixed on the connecting frame, the piston rod of the cylinder is connected to the push plate, and the pressure block is disposed at the bottom of the push plate.

[0009] Optionally, the pressure block is disposed around the drill bit, and a through hole is formed on the pressure block, through which the drill bit passes.

[0011] In summary, this utility model has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0012] 1. By setting a pre-drilled hole assembly on the lateral movement component, pre-drilling ensures the precise size and position of the hole, making it easier for the tapping assembly to enter the hole and form a firm connection. It also reduces the cutting resistance of hot melt tapping in the material, making operation easier and more efficient. Reducing cutting resistance also extends the service life of the hot melt equipment.

[0020] This utility model discloses an integrated hot melt tapping device. (Refer to...) Figure 1 An integrated hot melt tapping device includes a transverse moving assembly 1, a pre-drilling assembly 2, a hot melt drilling assembly 3, and a tapping assembly 4.

The rotating shaft assembly is connected to the drill bit 27. The lifting drive 26 drives the rotating shaft assembly to move up and down. By setting a pre-drilled hole assembly 2 on the transverse moving assembly 1, pre-drilling ensures the precise size and position of the hole, making it easier for the tapping assembly 4 to enter the hole and form a firm connection.
