Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of auxiliary tooling equipment technology, and in particular relates to a welding tooling. Background Technology
[0002] As a crucial component of the outdoor unit of an air conditioner, the compressor generates vibrations during operation. This not only increases the noise of the outdoor unit but also affects the stability of the piping assemblies connected to the compressor, increasing the risk of piping detachment and refrigerant leakage. To mitigate the impact of vibration deterioration caused by compressor acceleration, some outdoor units use ring-shaped piping assemblies to connect to the compressor. These spatial ring-shaped assemblies can significantly absorb vibration energy in three directions, reducing the outward transmission of compressor vibration, lowering noise, and improving the stability of the piping assembly connection.
[0003] This type of piping assembly is manufactured by welding two arc-shaped piping units together. During welding, the two piping units need to be supported and positioned. Existing welding fixtures can only support a single piping unit and cannot meet the relative positional relationship between the two arc-shaped piping units. Therefore, during the welding process of the piping units, there are problems such as high positioning difficulty, complex operation, poor uniformity of the piping assembly after processing, and inability to guarantee the quality of the finished product.
[0004] The information disclosed in this background section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the background technology of this application, and therefore may include prior art that is not known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0061] refer to Figures 1-3 This utility model proposes a welding fixture 300 for welding a ring-shaped piping assembly. The welding fixture 300 includes a base 310, a support frame 320, and a positioning component.
[0062] The base 310 provides a supporting foundation for the welding work and is used to support it on a workbench or the ground.
[0063] The support frame 320 is supported on the base 310 at its bottom, and the support frame 320 extends upward to a certain height to provide installation and operation space for the piping assembly.
[0064] The positioning component is connected to the support frame 320, and the piping assembly is installed on the welding fixture 300 through the positioning component.
[0065] The positioning assembly includes at least a first positioning member 330, a second positioning member 340, and a third positioning member 350. A first positioning recess 331 is formed on the first positioning member 330, a second positioning recess 341 is formed on the second positioning member 340, and a third positioning recess 351 is formed on the third positioning member 350. The opening directions of the first positioning recess 331, the second positioning recess 341, and the third positioning recess 351 are consistent.
[0066] For example, the first positioning recess 331, the second positioning recess 341 and the third positioning recess 351 can be configured as horizontally upward opening structures.
[0067] Alternatively, the first positioning recess 331, the second positioning recess 341, and the third positioning recess 351 may be recessed structures that are angled to the horizontal plane. For example, but not limited to, the first positioning recess 331, the second positioning recess 341, and the third positioning recess 351 may be arranged vertically with their openings facing one side.
[0068] refer to Figure 6 The piping unit is used to connect to the compressor 200 of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. The piping assembly 100 includes a first piping unit 110 and a second piping unit 120.
[0069] The second positioning recess 341 is used to clamp the first end of the first piping unit 110, the first positioning recess 331 is used to clamp the first end of the second piping unit 120, and the third positioning recess 351 is used to clamp the second end of the first piping unit 110, so that the second end of the second piping unit 120 corresponds to the second end of the first piping unit 110.
[0070] Combination Figure 7 , Figure 8 The first piping unit 110 of the piping assembly includes a first arc-shaped pipe section 111, and the second piping unit 120 includes a second arc-shaped pipe section 121. The first piping unit 110 and the second piping unit 120 are connected, and the first arc-shaped pipe section 111 and the second arc-shaped pipe section 121 are arranged in a ring.
[0071] Specifically, a mating pipe section 112 is provided at one end of the first piping unit 110 and the second piping unit 120, and a plug pipe section 122 is provided at the other end of the second piping unit 120 and the first piping unit 110. The inner diameter of the mating pipe section 112 is adapted to the outer diameter of the plug pipe section 122, and the plug pipe section 122 is inserted into the mating pipe section 112.
[0072] The welding fixture 300 involved in this application is used to weld the connection between the insert pipe section 122 and the mating pipe section 112 after the insert pipe section 122 is inserted into the mating pipe section 112, so that the first piping unit 110 and the second piping unit 120 are welded into one piece.
[0073] One end of the second arc-shaped pipe segment 121 is connected and positioned inside the first positioning recess 331, and the other end of the second arc-shaped pipe segment 121 extends above the third positioning recess 351. One end of the first arc-shaped pipe segment 111 is positioned and connected inside the second positioning recess 341, and the other end is positioned and connected inside the third positioning recess 351. The matching pipe segment 112 is located above the third positioning recess 351.
[0074] Insert pipe section 122 is inserted into mating pipe section 112, and insert pipe section 122 and mating pipe section 112 are welded above the third positioning member 350.
[0075] The mating pipe section 112 is specifically a straight pipe section formed by the first piping unit 110 through a pipe expansion process to increase its corresponding inner diameter, so that the insertion pipe section 122 is connected in the mating pipe section 112, thereby realizing the initial connection between the first piping unit 110 and the second piping unit 120.
[0076] refer to Figure 9A first straight pipe section 113 is also provided between the matching pipe section 112 and the first arc-shaped pipe section 111. The third positioning recess 351 is a straight positioning groove structure. The first piping unit 110 is clamped in the third positioning recess 351 through the first straight pipe section 113.
[0077] Of course, the third positioning recess 351 can also be designed as an arc-shaped positioning groove that matches the corresponding position of the first arc-shaped pipe section 111, and the first piping unit 110 is connected and positioned in the third positioning recess 351 through the first arc-shaped pipe section 111.
[0078] The outer diameter of the first straight pipe section 113 is equal to the outer diameter of the first arc-shaped pipe section 111. A transition section 101 is formed between the first straight pipe section 113 and the mating pipe section 112. The transition section 101 facilitates the transition between the first straight pipe section 113 and the mating pipe section 112, avoiding problems such as stress concentration.
[0079] The first arc-shaped pipe section 111 is provided with a second straight pipe section 114 at one end away from the first straight pipe section 113, and the other end of the second straight pipe section 114 is connected to the third straight pipe section 116 through the first bent pipe section 115.
[0080] The second straight pipe section 114 and the third straight pipe section 116 are located on both sides of the first bent pipe section 115, which facilitates the clamping and positioning of the first piping unit 110 when processing the first bent pipe section 115.
[0081] The other end of the third straight pipe section 116 is provided with a first pair of pipe sections 117. The first pair of pipe sections 117 is flared and its radial dimension is larger than that of the third straight pipe section to facilitate connection with other pipe fittings.
[0082] The second positioning recess 341 is also a vertically arranged straight groove structure. The second positioning recess 341 is used to clamp the third straight pipe section 116, and the first connecting pipe section 117 is located above the second positioning recess 341.
[0083] refer to Figure 10 The second arc-shaped pipe section 121 is provided with a fourth straight pipe section 123 at one end away from the insertion pipe section 122. The other end of the fourth straight pipe section 123 is connected to the fifth straight pipe section 125 through the second bent pipe section 124.
[0084] The first positioning recess 331 is used to clamp the fourth straight pipe segment 123. The first positioning recess 331 is designed as a straight groove structure that is adapted to the fourth straight pipe segment 123. Of course, the first positioning recess 331 can also be designed as an arc groove structure that is adapted to the first arc-shaped pipe segment 111121.
[0085] Compared to the arc-shaped positioning groove structure, the straight groove structure is easier to process and position.
[0086] Similarly, the fourth straight pipe segment 123 and the fifth straight pipe segment 125 are located at both ends of the second bent pipe segment 124, which facilitates the clamping and positioning of the second piping unit 120100 when processing the second bent pipe segment 124.
[0087] The first bent pipe section 115 and the second bent pipe section 124 are bent in opposite directions so that the center line of the third straight pipe section 116 and the center line of the fifth straight pipe section 125 are on the same straight line.
[0088] For example, but not limited to, in Figure 8 In the direction shown, the first arc-shaped pipe segment 111 in the first piping unit 110 is deflected outward relative to the plane of the paper, and correspondingly, the first bent pipe segment 115 is bent inward relative to the plane of the paper. The second arc-shaped pipe segment 121 in the second piping unit 120100 is deflected inward relative to the plane of the paper, and the second bent pipe segment 124 is bent outward relative to the plane of the paper, so that the center line of the third straight pipe segment 116 and the center line of the fifth straight pipe segment 125 are on the same straight line.
[0089] Specifically, for ease of processing, the first bent pipe section 115 and the second bent pipe section 124 both consist of two opposing arc segments, specifically, the first arc segment 102 and the second arc segment 103, respectively.
[0090] The first arc segment 102 and the second arc segment 103 are formed by bending pipes from the pipe fitting base material.
[0091] The other end of the fifth straight pipe section 125 is provided with a second pair of pipe sections 126. The first pair of pipe sections 117 and the second pair of pipe sections 126 are used to connect with other pipe fittings.
[0092] The first pair of pipe sections 117 or the second pair of pipe sections 126 are flared or reduced in diameter to facilitate connection with other pipe fittings.
[0093] A transition section 101 is formed between the third straight pipe section 116 and the first pipe section 117, and between the fifth straight pipe section 125 and the second pipe section 126, to prevent stress concentration between the flared section and other pipe sections, which could cause the pipe wall to become too thin at the corresponding position and lead to breakage.
[0094] The ring formed by the first arc-shaped pipe segment 111 and the second arc-shaped pipe segment 121 is a three-dimensional ring. One end of the first arc-shaped pipe segment 111 and the second arc-shaped pipe segment 121 are located on the same straight line, and the other end is arranged in a staggered manner. The axes are located on different straight lines, and the piping assembly 100 itself does not have spatial contact or interference.
[0095] The structural design of this piping assembly is beneficial for absorbing the vibration generated during the operation of the compressor 200, reducing the transmission of noise, and improving the connection stability of the piping assembly.
[0096] Specifically, the first positioning recess 331, the second positioning recess 341, and the third positioning recess 351 are all semi-circular groove structures extending in the vertical direction.
[0097] The first piping unit 110 is vertically connected to the first positioning recess 331, and the second piping unit 120 is vertically connected to the second positioning recess 341 and the third positioning recess 351.
[0098] The first positioning recess 331, the second positioning recess 341, and the third positioning recess 351 are arranged vertically so that the first piping unit 110 and the second piping unit 120 are also arranged vertically, which facilitates the operator to perform welding operations at the connection position of the first piping unit 110 and the second piping unit 120.
[0099] Refer again Figure 2 In some embodiments of this application, the second positioning member 340 is located above the first positioning member 330 and is located in front of or behind the first positioning member 330 along the width direction of the base 310; the third positioning member 350 is flush with the first positioning member 330 and is located to the left or right of the first positioning member 330 along the length direction of the base 310.
[0100] The first positioning member 330 and the third positioning member 350 are arranged left and right along the length direction of the base 310, and the first positioning member 330 and the third positioning member 350 are staggered back and forth along the width direction of the base 310; the first positioning member 330 is located below the second positioning member 340, and is staggered back and forth along the width direction of the base 310; the second ends of the first piping unit 110 and the second piping unit 120 are connected at the corresponding positions of the third positioning member 350; the first ends are staggered back and forth under the action of the first positioning member 330 and the second positioning member 340 to form a three-dimensional ring structure.
[0101] by Figure 5 For reference, the projection of the first positioning recess 331 on the base 310 is located directly in front of the second positioning recess 341. The distance L between the central axis of the first positioning recess 331 and the central axis of the second positioning recess 341 is not less than the outer diameter of the first arc-shaped pipe section 111, so as to avoid interference between the first piping unit 110 and the second piping unit 120.
[0102] The first positioning recess 331 and the second positioning recess 341 are arranged at different heights in the vertical direction. That is, the second positioning recess 341 is located above the first positioning recess 331, which is used to provide connection space for the first piping unit 110 and the second piping unit 120 for easy positioning.
[0103] The dimension between the central axis of the first positioning recess 331 and the central axis of the third positioning recess 351 is equal to the distance between the central axis of the first straight pipe segment and the central axis of the fourth straight pipe segment 123.
[0104] In some embodiments of this application, the support frame 320 includes a support upright portion 321 and a support horizontal portion 322. The support upright portion 321 is disposed at an angle at its upper end. A first positioning member 330 is disposed at the end of the support horizontal portion 322. A second positioning member 340 is connected to the support frame 320 through a first support auxiliary frame 342. A third positioning member 350 is connected to the support frame 320 through a second support auxiliary frame 352.
[0105] In some embodiments of this application, the first piping unit 110 includes a first arc-shaped pipe section 111, one end of which is provided with a first straight pipe section, and the end of the first straight pipe section is formed with a mating pipe section. The size of the third positioning recess 351 is not less than the outer diameter of the first straight pipe section and the size of the third positioning recess 351 is less than the outer diameter of the mating pipe section. The third positioning recess 351 is used to directly clamp the first straight pipe section.
[0106] In some embodiments of this application, a third straight pipe segment is provided at the other end of the first arc-shaped pipe segment 111, and a first connecting pipe segment is provided at the end of the third straight pipe segment. The size of the second positioning recess 341 is not smaller than that of the third straight pipe segment and the size of the second positioning recess 341 is smaller than that of the first connecting pipe segment. The second positioning recess 341 is used to clamp the third straight pipe segment and support it below the first connecting pipe segment. The second positioning recess 341 and the third positioning recess 351 are located on the upper side of the first arc-shaped pipe segment 111.
[0107] In some embodiments of this application, the second piping unit 120 includes a second arc-shaped pipe section 121. One end of the second arc-shaped pipe section 121 is provided with a plug pipe section for welding onto a mating pipe section. The other end of the second arc-shaped pipe section 121 is provided with a fourth straight pipe section 123.
