Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forklift frame welding technology, specifically a welding platform for forklift frames. Background Technology

[0002] Forklifts are industrial handling vehicles, referring to various wheeled handling vehicles used for loading, unloading, stacking, and short-distance transportation of palletized goods. When manufacturing forklift frames, welding operations are required on a welding platform.

[0003] In the prior art, a universal welding positioning mechanism for heavy-duty forklift frames, with publication number CN108515301A, includes a base with a front support seat and a rear support seat slidably connected to it. The front support seat includes a connecting seat slidably connected to the base, and an adjusting plate is connected to the top of the connecting seat via a trapezoidal frame. Multiple oblong holes are sequentially formed on the adjusting plate. The rear support seat includes a seat plate slidably connected to the base, and a positioning post is connected to the top of the seat plate via a bracket. This positioning mechanism provides simple and convenient positioning of the forklift frame without requiring additional auxiliary tooling. Adjusting the opening size of the front and rear support seats is sufficient to meet the longitudinal positioning needs of forklifts with different wheelbases (12-32). Simultaneously, the adjusting nut on the front support seat allows for lateral positioning with different wheelbases, making positioning and installation simple and quick.

[0004] However, while this type of welding platform can perform welding operations on the car frame well, it requires placing the car frame from the top of the platform when loading it. Loading the car frame from the bottom of the platform is not very efficient, making loading the car frame placed on the ground cumbersome and reducing the efficiency of car frame welding.

[0005] Therefore, in view of this, we studied and improved the existing structure to address its shortcomings, and proposed a welding platform for forklift frames. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a welding platform for forklift frames, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the loading of frames from the bottom of the platform is not efficient, making the loading of frames placed on the ground cumbersome.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a welding platform for a forklift frame, comprising a device body, an outer wall of which has a loading port, a welding robot mounted on the outer wall of the device body, a servo motor mounted on the outer wall of the device body, a swing rod fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor, a connecting block slidably connected to the outer wall of the swing rod and the outer wall of the device body, a placement plate fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting block, a forklift frame mounted on the top of the placement plate, and a vision detector mounted on the outer wall of the device body.

[0008] Furthermore, a limiting groove is provided at the connection between the outer wall of the swing rod and the connecting block.

[0009] Furthermore, a lifting groove is provided at the connection between the outer wall of the main body of the device and the connecting block, and the outer wall of the lifting groove has an L-shaped outline.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner wall profile of the feeding port is larger than the outer wall profile of the placement plate.

[0011] Furthermore, an electric push rod is provided on the outer wall of the main body of the device, and a clamping plate is fixedly connected to one end of the electric push rod. A telescopic rod that is slidably connected to the outer wall of the clamping plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the main body of the device.

[0012] Furthermore, the outer wall of the clamping plate is provided with anti-slip texture at the contact area with the forklift frame.

[0013] Furthermore, the movement trajectory of the placement plate is L-shaped.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. This utility model, by setting up a lifting groove, improves the efficiency of loading and unloading the forklift frame on the welding platform during welding processing, and alleviates the tediousness of frame handling for workers. When the welded frame needs to be unloaded, the servo motor is turned on and the swing arm rotates, which drives the connecting block to slide synchronously along the inner wall of the limiting groove and the lifting groove, so as to drive the placement plate to move in an L-shape, so that the forklift frame moves to the bottom of the platform for loading and unloading operations.

[0016] 2. By setting up a clamping plate, this utility model improves the stability of the forklift frame during welding on a welding platform. The electric push rod drives the clamping plate, which is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod, to extend and retract, thereby simultaneously clamping and fixing both sides of the frame.
