[0059] To address the technical problem of the lack of specialized tooling for clamping and positioning for forklift truck bodies during manufacturing in existing technologies, one embodiment of this application provides a forklift truck body positioning tooling. This is described in detail below.

[0060] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a forklift box positioning fixture includes...

[0061] Positioning seat 2, the positioning seat 2 is provided with a positioning groove, and the box body 1 to be welded is suitable to be placed in the positioning groove;

[0062] Lateral locking mechanism 4, which laterally locks the box 1 in the positioning groove;

[0066] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, the positioning base 2 includes a positioning base plate 21, a positioning front plate 22, and a positioning side plate 23. The positioning front plate 22 and the positioning side plate 23 are vertically arranged on the positioning base plate 21, and the positioning front plate 22 and the positioning side plate 23 are vertically connected.

[0067] The positioning base plate 21, the positioning front plate 22, and the positioning side plate 23 intersect and form a positioning reference end angle;

[0068] Both the positioning base plate 21 and the positioning front plate 22 have operation holes 24.

[0069] See Figure 6 The two operating holes 24 on the positioning seat 2 are both rectangular holes. Through these rectangular holes, the welding torch 71 can be extended to the housing 1 and the bottom of the housing 1 for welding.

[0070] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the vertical locking mechanism 3 includes

[0071] Clamping cylinder 31, which is mounted on positioning side plate 23;

[0072] A vertical pressing block 32 is connected to a clamping cylinder 31, which drives the vertical pressing block 32 to press vertically downward.

[0073] In this embodiment, the clamping cylinder 31 is an existing mature product. The clamping cylinder 31 adopts the AKUS63 series of Warnes cylinders and is vertically set on the positioning side plate 23.

[0074] The vertical pressure block 32 is located above the positioning groove. When it is necessary to press the box 1, the vertical pressure block 32 moves downward and presses the upper partition 14 of the box 1 through the vertical pressure block 32.

[0075] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the lateral locking mechanism 4 includes

[0076] Mounting base 41, with lifting cylinders 42 respectively provided on both sides of the mounting base 41, and the mounting base 41 is mounted on the positioning base 2 by the two lifting cylinders 42;

[0080] The lifting cylinder 42 can drive the horizontal cylinder 43 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the pressing position of the horizontal pressing block 44 on the box 1.

[0081] In this embodiment, the transverse pressing block 44 presses the back plate 12 in the housing 1.

[0082] In this embodiment, the transverse pressure block 44 is connected to the mounting base 41 on both sides by guide rods, and the guide rods enable the transverse pressure block 44 to move stably in a telescopic manner.

[0083] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the longitudinal locking mechanism 5 includes

[0084] Support base 51, which is fixed on positioning base plate 21, and is arranged opposite to positioning side plate 23;

[0085] Two longitudinal cylinders 52 are mounted on a support base 51.

[0086] The longitudinal cylinder 52 is connected to the longitudinal pressure block 53 and drives the longitudinal pressure block 53 to move longitudinally.

[0087] In this embodiment, the longitudinal pressing block 53 abuts against the side of the enclosure of the box 1, while the other side of the enclosure abuts against the positioning side plate 23.

[0088] The box body 1 is first assembled by welding workers and pre-fixed by spot welding. Then, the spot-welded box body 1 is placed in the positioning groove, and then the box body 1 is locked by the horizontal locking mechanism and the vertical locking mechanism 5. Finally, the vertical locking mechanism 3 is pressed tightly.

[0089] The forklift box positioning fixture of this utility model can quickly assemble and disassemble the forklift box 1 on the positioning seat 2, and the installation position is accurate. It can be accurately positioned at the positioning reference end corner in the positioning groove. The inside of the box 1 can be welded through the two operating holes 24 opened on the positioning seat 2.

[0090] Another embodiment of this application, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, a welding device is provided, including a flipping mechanism 6, wherein an operation hole 24 is provided on the flipping table 62 of the flipping mechanism 6;

[0091] The positioning fixture adopts the forklift box positioning fixture mentioned above. The positioning base plate 21 of the positioning fixture is fixedly connected to the tilting table 62. The operation holes 24 on the positioning base plate 21 and the tilting table 62 are vertically corresponding.

[0092] Robot 7, which drives welding torch 71 to weld the housing 1;

[0093] The controller 8 is electrically connected to the flipping mechanism 6 and the robot 7 respectively.

[0094] In this embodiment, see Figure 9 As shown, the tilting table 62 is formed by welding multiple pipes. The bottom surface of the tilting table 62 includes three pipes, and the distance between adjacent pipes is the operating hole 24.

[0095] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 9 As shown, the flipping mechanism 6 includes

[0096] A pair of tilting seats 61, a tilting table 62, and a geared motor 63,

[0097] The two ends of the flipping table 62 are respectively connected to the flipping seats 61 on both sides via rotating shafts;

[0098] The geared motor 63 is connected to one of the rotating shafts for transmission, and the geared motor 63 drives the tilting table 62 to rotate; the geared motor 63 is electrically connected to the controller 8.

[0099] The positioning base plate 21 and the tilting table 62 are fastened together by bolts.

[0100] Controller 8 is existing technology and should be selected by those skilled in the art based on the actual situation.

[0101] Within the controller 8 system, the operation of robot 7 and geared motor 63 is programmed and controlled according to actual operational requirements. This allows robot 7, carrying welding torch 71, to perform full welding on the seams of housing 1. It can also perform full welding on the internal seams of housing 1 via the operating holes 24 on the positioning front plate 22, and on the bottom seams of housing 1 via the operating holes 24 on the tilting table 62 and positioning base plate 21. During welding operations, robot 7 controls the position of welding torch 71, and geared motor 63 controls the direction and posture of tilting table 62. These components work together to improve the welding efficiency of housing 1 and reduce the labor intensity of the welder.

[0102] The production process of forklift body 1 is as follows:

[0103] The welder first spot welds the U-shaped enclosure 11, back plate 12, support plate 13, upper partition 14, lower partition 15, upper stiffening plate 16 and lower stiffening plate 17 to obtain the pre-fixed box 1.

[0104] The pre-fixed box 1 is placed into the positioning slot of the positioning seat 2, and the box 1 is locked and fixed by the horizontal locking mechanism 4, the longitudinal locking mechanism 5 and the vertical locking mechanism 3.

[0105] Next, the welding equipment is started, and the robot 7 is controlled to perform full welding on the joint of the box 1. At the same time, the reduction motor 63 drives the tilting table 62 to rotate, so that the welding gun 71 can obtain a better welding angle and complete the welding of the inner and outer joints of the box 1.
