A conveying, positioning, and pressing integrated automatic welding machine

Abstract

This application discloses an integrated automated welding machine for conveying, positioning, and pressing, comprising: a frame; a roller conveyor mounted on the frame; a welding module capable of displacement welding; and a positioning structure including: a bidirectional screw slide, a slide bearing profile, a first connecting member, a side positioning profile, a positioning slider, a second connecting member, a first short-stroke cylinder, a slide rail, a slider, a long profile, a second short-stroke cylinder, a third short-stroke cylinder, and a fourth short-stroke cylinder. This application uses a bidirectional screw slide to drive the moving side positioning profile to synchronously and in the opposite direction, enabling synchronous side positioning of the material. Simultaneously, the side positioning profile is equipped with an adjustable short-stroke cylinder to apply pressure to the material via a pressure rod, preventing displacement or shaking of the part to be welded. The cylinder extension and retraction positioning of both ends of the material results in fast positioning speed and good coordination. The positioning structure reserves working space after positioning, preventing interference with the welding module.

Traditional welding equipment generally suffers from the following technical bottlenecks in achieving positioning functions: Existing equipment mostly adopts a split positioning mechanism, such as independent front and rear baffles and lateral clamping devices, which has the following defects: Spatial interference: The movement trajectories of the positioning mechanism and the welding execution mechanism are prone to interference, requiring alternating operation and resulting in low efficiency; Poor coordination: The positioning units lack linkage control. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this application is to provide an integrated automated welding machine for conveying, positioning, and pressing in order to solve the above problems. It adopts side synchronous positioning and positioning at both ends of the cylinder, which has a fast positioning speed and good coordination. The positioning structure reserves working space after positioning and will not interfere with the welding module.

Two slide support profiles are fixedly installed at the beginning and end of the roller conveyor's conveying route. Two sets of bidirectional screw slides are installed on the slide support profiles. The two output ends of the bidirectional screw slides can drive the two side positioning profiles to move synchronously in opposite directions along the X-direction. The two ends of the side positioning profiles are fixedly connected to the output ends of the bidirectional screw slides through the first connecting member. The bottom of the side positioning profiles is close to the conveying rollers of the roller conveyor so that the sides of the side positioning profiles can contact the material. The side positioning profiles are equipped with... The positioning slider is adjustable along its length. The first short-stroke cylinder is fixedly connected to the positioning slider via the second connector. The fifth short-stroke cylinder is connected to the slide table bearing profile via the third connector, and the third connector is configured to adjust the installation position along the length of the slide table bearing profile. The output ends of the first and fifth short-stroke cylinders are equipped with pressure rods so that the first and fifth short-stroke cylinders can drive the pressure rods to apply pressure to the material. There are two slide rails arranged along the Y direction. The slide rails are equipped with sliders that can adjust the installation position along their length. The long strip profile is arranged along the X direction and can be placed horizontally on the slider.

[0012] Compared to existing technologies, this application uses a two-way screw slide to drive the side positioning profile to move synchronously in the opposite direction, which can synchronously position the side of the material. At the same time, the side positioning profile is equipped with a short-stroke cylinder with an adjustable installation position to apply pressure to the material through a pressure rod, so as to avoid the part to be welded from shifting or shaking. The positioning speed of the two ends of the material is fast and the coordination is good.

[0020] like Figure 1-2 As shown, an integrated automated welding machine for conveying, positioning, and clamping includes:

[0021] Frame 1; Roller conveyor 2, mounted on frame 1;

[0022] The welding module is capable of displacement welding;

[0023] The positioning structure includes: a bidirectional lead screw slide 7, a slide bearing profile 8, a first connecting piece 10, a side positioning profile 11, a positioning slider 12, a second connecting piece 13, a first short-stroke cylinder 14, a slide rail 15, a slider 16, a long strip profile 17, a second short-stroke cylinder 18, a third short-stroke cylinder 19, a fourth short-stroke cylinder 20, a pressure rod 21, a fifth short-stroke cylinder 22, and a third connecting piece 23. Two slide bearing profiles 8 are fixedly installed at the beginning of the conveying route of the roller conveyor 2. At the end, two sets of bidirectional screw slides 7 are mounted on the slide support profile 8. The two output ends of the bidirectional screw slides 7 can drive two side positioning profiles 11 to move synchronously in opposite directions along the X direction. The two ends of the side positioning profiles 11 are fixedly connected to the output ends of the bidirectional screw slides 7 through the first connecting member 10. The bottom of the side positioning profiles 11 is close to the conveying roller of the roller conveyor 2 so that the side of the side positioning profiles 11 can contact the material. The side positioning profiles 11 are provided with positioning sliders 12 whose installation position can be adjusted along their length. The first short-stroke cylinder 14 is fixedly connected to the positioning slider 12 through the second connecting member 13. The fifth short-stroke cylinder 22 is connected to the slide support profile 8 through the third connecting member 23, and the third connecting member 23 is configured to be adjustable along the length of the slide support profile 8. The output ends of the first short-stroke cylinder 14 and the fifth short-stroke cylinder 22 are provided with pressure rods 21 so that the first short-stroke cylinder 14 and the fifth short-stroke cylinder 22 can... The drive lever 21 applies pressure to the material. There are two slide rails 15 arranged along the Y direction. A slider 16 is provided on the slide rail 15, and its installation position can be adjusted along its length. The long strip profile 17 is arranged along the X direction and can be placed horizontally on the slider 16. The second short-stroke cylinder 18 is provided on the long strip profile 17 and its installation position can be adjusted along the length of the long strip profile 17. The third short-stroke cylinder 19 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second short-stroke cylinder 18. The fourth short-stroke cylinder 20 is installed on the frame 1.

[0024] Specifically, the bidirectional lead screw slide 7, through threads with opposite directions, can drive the first connecting member 10 to move synchronously through the output end, thereby driving the side positioning profile 11 to move. Each of the two side positioning profiles 11 is equipped with at least two sets of first short-stroke cylinders 14 to apply pressure to multiple positions of the material through the pressure rod 21. The slider 16 is fastened to the slide rail 15 by fasteners, such as nuts, and can adjust the installation position to adjust the position of the second short-stroke cylinder 18 along the Y direction, thereby adapting to the length of the material for positioning.

[0025] Furthermore, the welding module includes: a unidirectional lead screw linear slide 3, two sets of which are set at the beginning and end of the conveying route of the roller conveyor 2, and the output end can translate along the X direction; a gear and rack linear slide 4, both ends of which are connected to the output ends of the two sets of unidirectional lead screw linear slides 3, and the output end of which can translate along the Y direction; a short-stroke lead screw slide 5, which is set on the output end of the gear and rack linear slide 4, and the output end of which can translate along the Z direction; and a welding machine 6, which is set on the output end of the short-stroke lead screw slide 5.

[0026] Specifically, the welding machine 6 is driven to move along the X, Y, and Z directions by the cooperation of the unidirectional lead screw linear slide 3, the gear and rack linear slide 4, and the short-stroke lead screw slide 5, so as to weld different parts.

[0027] Furthermore, the positioning slider 12 is detachably connected to the side positioning profile 11 via fasteners to adjust the installation position, the third connector 23 is detachably connected to the slide table bearing profile 8 via fasteners to adjust the installation position, and the slider 16 is detachably connected to the slide rail 15 via fasteners to adjust the installation position.

[0028] Furthermore, the fourth short-stroke cylinder 20 is configured such that its output end protrudes beyond the roller conveyor 2 after it extends.

[0029] Specifically, this allows the boards to come into contact and further position the board material.

[0030] In the above structure, the fourth short-stroke cylinder 20 extends, and the plate is conveyed by the roller conveyor 2. The plate first abuts against the output end of the fourth short-stroke cylinder 20 for positioning. Then, the third short-stroke cylinder 19 is activated, causing it to descend. Then, the third short-stroke cylinder 19 extends and abuts against the plate through its telescopic end. The cooperation of the third short-stroke cylinder 19 and the fourth short-stroke cylinder 20 can clamp both ends of the plate. Then, 8 works simultaneously, driving 9 to rotate. The bidirectional thread of 9 drives the first connecting member 10 to move closer, thereby driving the side positioning profile 11 to move closer, so that the side positioning profile 11... 1. The plate is clamped, and then the first short-stroke cylinder 14 is activated, pressing the plate with the pressure rod 21 to further fix the plate and press the part of the plate to be welded. Then, the welding machine 6 is used for welding. During the welding process, the short-stroke lead screw slide 5 can drive the welding machine 6 to rise and fall. The output end of the one-way lead screw linear slide 3 can drive the gear rack linear slide 4 to move horizontally. The output end of the gear rack linear slide 4 can drive the short-stroke lead screw slide 5 to move horizontally. By driving the welding machine 6 to move along the X, Y, and Z directions, the welding machine 6 can be moved to the part to be welded for welding, thus enabling positioning welding.
