The tray 224 is connected to the lead screw nut of the lead screw assembly 222 and the sliders of the two linear guides 223.

[0044] A first sensing hole 2241 is provided on the tray 224 corresponding to the position of the first reinforcing plate 12, and a second sensing hole 2242 is provided corresponding to the position of the main board 11. A first mounting slot 2243 for mounting the first laser sensor 26a is provided around the first sensing hole 2241, and a second mounting slot 2244 for mounting the second laser sensor 26b is provided around the second sensing hole 2242.

A through hole 236 is also provided in each positioning groove 235 for the second ultrasonic welding head assembly 254 of the ultrasonic welding device 25 to pass through and weld the first reinforcing plate 12 to the corresponding main plate 11. The four handles 234 are provided on the first positioning plate 231 and located outside the positioning area 233, making it convenient for workers to pick up and put down the first positioning device 23.

[0046] The first positioning plate 231 has a third sensing hole 237 corresponding to the position of the first sensing hole 2241, and a fourth sensing hole 238 corresponding to the position of the second sensing hole 2242. When the first reinforcing plate 12 is placed into the positioning groove 235, the first laser sensor 26a will detect the first reinforcing plate 12 through the first sensing hole 2241 and the third sensing hole 237. At this time, the indicator light of the first reinforcing plate 12 on the visual interface of the control system will turn green. Subsequently, when the main board 11 is placed in the positioning area 233, the second laser sensor 26b will detect the main board 11 through the second sensing hole 2242 and the fourth sensing hole 238. At this time, the indicator light of the main board 11 on the visual interface will also turn green.

[0047] In this embodiment, there are two sensing plates 27. The sensing plates 27 are disposed on the upper surface of the first positioning plate 231 and are respectively located at the opposite two side edges of the first positioning plate 231.

The connecting plate 247 is connected to the four corners of the lifting frame 244 and is connected to the column 213 via a first self-lubricating bearing. The second positioning plate 245 has a group of positioning holes 248.

The fixed end of each first cylinder 243 is connected to the top plate 214, and the output end of the first cylinder 243 is connected to the lifting frame 244. The two first cylinders 243 together drive the lifting plate assembly 241 to move along the length of the column 213.

The channel of the cylindrical body 2421b is adapted to the second reinforcing plate 13, allowing the second reinforcing plate 13 to be placed on the main plate 11 through the channel. The connecting flange 2421a has a clearance groove at the position corresponding to the third laser sensor 26c to avoid the third laser sensor.

[0055] The second positioning channel 2422 and the third positioning channel 2423 have the same structure as the first positioning channel 2421, and will not be described in detail here.

[0056] The ultrasonic welding device 25 includes a second cylinder 251, a movable plate 252, a first ultrasonic welding head assembly 253, and a second ultrasonic welding head assembly 254. The fixed end of the second cylinder 251 is connected to the top plate 214, and the output end of the second cylinder 251 is connected to the movable plate 252. The movable plate 252 is connected to the column 213 via a second self-lubricating bearing. The fixed end of the first ultrasonic welding head assembly 253 is connected to the movable plate 252. The first ultrasonic welding head assembly 253 is used to weld the second reinforcing plate 13, the third reinforcing plate 14, and multiple reinforcing blocks 15 of each main body to the corresponding main plate 11. The fixed end of the second ultrasonic welding head assembly 254 is connected to the bracket 211.

[0057] The first ultrasonic welding head group 253 consists of multiple first ultrasonic welding heads, which correspond to the welding positions of the second reinforcing plate 13, the third reinforcing plate 14, and the multiple reinforcing blocks 15 of each main body with the main body 11.

[0058] The second ultrasonic welding head group 254 consists of multiple first ultrasonic welding heads, each corresponding to the welding position of the first reinforcing plate 12 and the main plate 11 of each main body.

[0059] Referring to the attached diagram, the working process of the ultrasonic welding fixture for the composite material lower guard plate is as follows: First, the traversing device 22 moves the first positioning device 23 from the material picking position to the welding position. Next, the operator places the first reinforcing plate 12 in the positioning groove 235. At this time, the first laser sensor 26a detects the signal of the first reinforcing plate 12 and feeds it back to the control system of the welding fixture 20. Subsequently, the operator places the main board 11 in the positioning area 233. The second laser sensor 26b detects the signal of the main board 11 again and feeds it back to the control system. Afterward, the operator activates the control button of the control system, and the second positioning plate 245 of the second positioning device 24 descends, causing the inductive switch 28 to contact the inductive plate 27, and the second positioning plate 245 stops descending. At this time, the operator places the second reinforcing plate 13, the third reinforcing plate 14, and multiple reinforcing blocks 15 on the main board 11 through the corresponding first positioning channel 2421, second positioning channel 2422, and third positioning channel 2423. The third laser sensor 26c, the fourth laser sensor 26d, and the fifth laser sensor 26e detect the signals of these components and feed them back to the control system. Finally, the first ultrasonic welding head assembly 253 of the ultrasonic welding device 25 descends from its original position through the positioning hole assembly 248 to a predetermined position, welding the second reinforcing plate 13, the third reinforcing plate 14, and multiple reinforcing blocks 15 to the corresponding main board 11. Simultaneously, the second ultrasonic welding head assembly 254 welds the first reinforcing plate 12 to the corresponding main board 11. Finally, the first ultrasonic welding head assembly 253 returns to its original position, and the traversing device 22 moves the first positioning device 23 from the welding position to the material removal position, whereby the worker removes the welded main body.
