Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of expanding the workspace of a wire mesh welding robot, and in particular to a device for expanding the workspace of a wire mesh welding robot. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, specialized container manufacturers in the industry produce a wide variety of container types, including collapsible containers, flat rack containers, platform containers, equipment containers, and housing containers. Frequent production changes between different container types mean that container welding is primarily done manually.

[0003] Among existing workspace expansion devices for cage welding robots, such as the welding robot disclosed in utility model patent application number 202320292679.0, the welding robot of this utility model has a vehicle body equipped with lifting rings and fork slots. The welding robot also includes wheels connected to the vehicle body, making the vehicle body easy to move and able to quickly move to the workstation on the production line where welding operations are required, and is fixed by a fixed seat. The vehicle body is equipped with a welding device including a robotic arm, a torch cleaning and wire cutting assembly, a welding machine, a control cabinet, an operation box, a laser tracker, and a welding torch, etc., which are necessary for welding. The vehicle body is also equipped with a power socket, so that the vehicle body can complete the welding of the container by connecting to a power source. In this way, the welding robot can quickly move to the workstation where welding operations are required to perform welding operations, and the welding robot has high utilization efficiency.

[0004] However, during the expansion of the workspace of the wire mesh welding robot, the fixed length of the existing robotic arm limits the workspace. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a workspace expansion device for a wire mesh welding robot, which allows the robotic arm to extend freely during the workspace expansion process by setting an extension mechanism and a synchronization mechanism, thereby expanding the equipment's workspace and improving convenience.

[0006] This utility model discloses a workspace expansion device for a wire mesh welding robot, which includes a rotating mechanism; it also includes a flipping mechanism, an extension mechanism, a synchronization mechanism, and a drag chain. The flipping mechanism is mounted on the rotating mechanism, the extension mechanism is mounted on the flipping mechanism, the synchronization mechanism is mounted on the extension mechanism, and the drag chain is mounted on the synchronization mechanism.

[0007] The rotating mechanism rotates, the flipping mechanism flips, the extending mechanism extends, the synchronizing mechanism extends synchronously, and the cable chain lays the cables. By opening the rotating mechanism to rotate, opening the flipping mechanism to flip, opening the extending mechanism to extend, and simultaneously using the synchronizing mechanism to extend synchronously and the cable chain to lay the cables, the robotic arm can be freely extended during the expansion of the workspace of the wire mesh welding robot, thereby expanding the equipment's workspace and improving convenience.

By turning on the motor, the bevel gears are driven to rotate, and the rotation of the bevel gears drives the main gear to rotate. The rotation of the main gears also meshes with the driven gears, causing the driven gears to drive the turntable to rotate.

The robotic arm is rotatably mounted on a turntable, the worm gear is mounted at the front end of the robotic arm, the second motor is mounted at the front end of the turntable, and the input end of the worm is connected to the output end of the second motor. The worm and the worm gear perform worm gear transmission. By turning on the second motor, the worm is driven to rotate. As the worm rotates, it performs worm gear transmission with the worm gear, causing the worm gear to drive the robotic arm to rotate.

[0010] Preferably, the extension mechanism includes an extension arm, a lead screw, and a motor. The extension arm is slidably mounted inside the robotic arm, the lead screw is rotatably mounted inside the robotic arm, and the lead screw is threadedly engaged with the extension arm. The motor is mounted inside the robotic arm, and the input end of the lead screw is connected to the output end of the motor. By turning on the motor, the lead screw is driven to rotate, and as the lead screw rotates, it engages with the extension arm to move and extend the extension arm.

[0011] Preferably, the synchronization mechanism includes a threaded cylinder and an extension arm 2. The threaded cylinder is rotatably mounted on the extension arm 1 and is slidably engaged with the extension arm 2. The extension arm 2 is slidably mounted on the extension arm 1 and is threadedly engaged with the extension arm 2. When the lead screw rotates, it drives the threaded cylinder to rotate. When the threaded cylinder rotates, it engages with the extension arm 2 to move the extension arm 2 and extend synchronously.

[0012] Preferably, the two ends of the cable chain are rotatably connected to the robotic arm and the second extension arm, respectively; the cable chain is used to organize and arrange the equipment wiring harness.
