Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of positioning welding machine technology, and in particular to a positioning welding machine that facilitates cleaning of weld edges. Background Technology
[0002] A positioning welding machine is a type of processing machinery that can weld raw materials after they have been fixed in place. Before welding begins, the surface of the raw materials is usually cleaned to prevent impurities from affecting the welding quality. Common cleaning methods include grinding and solvent cleaning.
[0003] In existing technologies, this cleaning work is usually done manually by processing personnel before processing, or through a dedicated processing step. Manual cleaning increases the workload of employees and affects processing efficiency; adding a dedicated step significantly increases costs, while improving processing efficiency. Currently, after the raw materials are cut and shaped, they quickly enter the welding process. The main impurities on the surface of the raw materials are dust and grease, which are relatively easy to clean, but require high timeliness. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a positioning welding machine that facilitates the cleaning of weld edges. This positioning welding machine can clean the weld edges along the weld seam simultaneously during the welding process, and the cleaning is timely and does not require manual operation.
[0005] This utility model provides a positioning welding machine that facilitates cleaning of weld edges, comprising:
[0006] A welding head and a support member, wherein one end of the support member is rotatably mounted on the welding head;
[0007] The positioning block and the spring are provided. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the end of the support member away from the welding head, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the positioning block. The bottom surface of the positioning block is spherical.
[0008] A cleaning component, which is fixedly mounted on the positioning block;
[0009] The welding head descends to perform welding work, the spring force presses the positioning block onto the weld, the positioning block moves along the weld under the guidance of the spherical bottom surface, and the cleaning component follows the positioning block to clean along the weld.
[0010] Preferably, the sidewall of the welding head is integrally formed with an assembly groove, and the support member is integrally formed with an assembly hole. The support member is rotatably assembled in the assembly groove through the assembly hole. The width of the assembly groove is greater than the thickness of the support member. The sidewall of the lower side of the assembly groove is integrally formed with a positioning groove. The bottom surface of the support member is integrally formed with a positioning protrusion near the assembly hole. The positioning protrusion is adapted to the positioning groove.
[0011] Preferably, the number of positioning grooves is four, and the four positioning grooves are evenly distributed along the sidewall of the assembly groove.
[0012] Preferably, the cleaning component includes a sponge block, the bottom surface of which is not higher than the bottom surface of the positioning block.
[0013] Preferably, the sponge block is a solid block and is located on the side of the positioning block near the welding head.
[0014] Preferably, the sponge block is hollow and fitted onto the positioning block.

[0019] The technical solution of this utility model links the welding head and the positioning block together through a support component and a spring. This allows the welding head to move the positioning block during welding. The positioning block moves along the weld edge via its spherical base. The rotational connection between the welding head and the support component makes the positioning block's position more flexible, allowing it to be used on non-linear weld edges. Finally, the spring absorbs the impact generated by the positioning block sliding along the weld edge, ensuring overall operational stability.

[0032] First embodiment:
[0033] Combination Figure 1 , Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the positioning welding machine provided by this utility model for easy cleaning of weld edges includes a welding head (1), a support (21), a spring (22), a positioning block (3), and a cleaning component (4).
[0034] Combination Figure 1 , Figures 4 to 6As shown, the welding head (1) has an integrally formed assembly groove (11) on its side wall, and the support member (21) has an integrally formed assembly hole (211) at one end. The support member (21) is rotatably assembled in the assembly groove (11) through the assembly hole (211), so that one end of the support member (21) is rotatably assembled on the welding head (1). The width of the assembly groove (11) is greater than the thickness of the support member (21), so that the support member (21) can slide up and down in the assembly groove (11) while having rotational freedom. A positioning groove (12) is integrally formed on the side wall of the lower side of the assembly groove (11). A positioning protrusion (212) is integrally formed on the bottom surface of the support member (21) near the assembly round hole (211). The positioning protrusion (212) is adapted to the positioning groove (12). The sides of the positioning protrusion (212) and the positioning groove (12) are both inclined. The inclined surface can generate a guiding effect, so that the support member (21) can slide along the inclined surface under the action of gravity and automatically position itself to the designated position.
[0035] One end of the spring (22) is fixedly connected to the end of the support (21) away from the welding head (1), and the other end of the spring (22) is fixedly connected to the positioning block (3). The bottom surface of the positioning block (3) is spherical. The cleaning component (4) is fixedly assembled on the positioning block (3). The cleaning component (4) includes a sponge block (41). The sponge block (41) is hollow and sleeved on the positioning block (3). The bottom surface of the sponge block (41) is not higher than the bottom surface of the positioning block (3) to ensure the cleaning effect.
[0036] In this embodiment, combined with Figures 4 to 5 As shown, there are four positioning grooves (12). The four positioning grooves (12) are evenly distributed along the side wall of the assembly groove (11). The support (21) can quickly position the positioning block (3) in four directions of the welding head (1). These four directions correspond to the four positive directions of the translation of the welding head (1), which facilitates the cleaning work.
[0037] Working process: After the raw materials are fixed, the welding head (1) is controlled to start working. First, the welding head (1) is controlled to descend, which drives the positioning block (3) to press down and contact the starting point of the weld. Then the welding head (1) moves towards the weld and performs welding work along the weld. During this process, the spring (22) presses the positioning block (3) on the weld with elastic force. The spherical bottom surface of the positioning block (3) is embedded in the weld, so that the positioning block (3) moves along the weld under the guidance of the bottom surface. The cleaning component (4) follows the positioning block (3) to move along the weld, and the sponge block (41) performs cleaning work by wiping.
[0038] During this process, when the positioning block (3) comes into contact with the processing material, the resulting reaction force will cause the support (21) to slide upward in the assembly groove (11), causing the positioning protrusion (212) and the positioning groove (12) to separate, ensuring that the support (21) can rotate freely in the assembly groove (11). When the positioning block (3) leaves the processing material, the support (21) will slide down in the assembly groove (11) under the action of gravity, causing the positioning protrusion (212) and the positioning groove (12) to contact, and repositioning the support (21) to the designated position.
[0039] In this embodiment, the support (21) and the spring (22) link the welding head (1) and the positioning block (3) together, so that the welding head (1) can drive the positioning block (3) to move during the welding process. The positioning block (3) moves along the weld edge through its spherical bottom surface. The rotational connection between the welding head (1) and the support (21) makes the position of the positioning block (3) more flexible, so that the positioning block (3) can be used for non-linear weld edges. Finally, the spring (22) absorbs the impact generated by the sliding of the positioning block (3) along the weld edge, ensuring the stability of the sliding of the positioning block (3). Finally, the cleaning component (4) is connected to the positioning block (3) and moves with the positioning block (3) to clean the weld edge. The cleaning process and the welding process are closely connected, the timeliness of the cleaning is guaranteed, and there is no need for manual control of the cleaning work, so no additional workload is generated.
[0040] Second embodiment:
[0041] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the positioning welding machine provided by this utility model for easy cleaning of weld edges includes a welding head (1), a support (21), an elastic telescopic rod (5), a positioning block (3), and a cleaning component (4).
[0042] Compared with the first embodiment, the main difference between the two is that the spring 22 is replaced by an elastic telescopic rod (5), and the shape of the positioning block (3) and the cleaning assembly (4) has changed.
[0043] In this embodiment, a new elastic telescopic rod (5) is added to replace the spring (22). The two ends of the elastic telescopic rod (5) are fixedly connected to the support member (21) and the positioning block (3) respectively. The elastic telescopic rod (5) is inclined, and the upper end of the elastic telescopic rod (5) is inclined towards the welding head (1) to help the elastic telescopic rod (5) better absorb the energy generated by the collision. The positioning block (3) is spherical and semi-embedded in the lower end of the elastic telescopic rod (5) to ensure that the positioning block (3) does not fall off while being able to roll freely. The cleaning component (4) is also fixedly connected to the lower end of the elastic telescopic rod (5).
[0044] In this embodiment, the cleaning component (4) includes a sponge block (41) and sandpaper (42). The sponge block (41) is a solid block fixedly connected to the lower end of the elastic telescopic rod (5). The sponge block (41) is located on the side of the positioning block (3) close to the welding head (1) and the bottom surface of the sponge block (41) is not higher than the bottom surface of the positioning block (3). The back of the sandpaper (42) is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the sponge block (41) and the sandpaper (42) covers a part of the bottom surface of the sponge block (41) away from the welding head (1), so that the cleaning component (4) can simultaneously polish and wipe, thereby enhancing its cleaning ability.
[0045] In the second embodiment, the working process is the same as in the first embodiment.
[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
