Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wheel rim processing technology, specifically a wheel rim bolt seat spot welding mold. Background Technology
[0002] The wheel rim, also known as the wheel hub, is the component on the periphery of the wheel that mounts and supports the tire. Together with the spokes, it forms the core structure of the wheel, primarily responsible for securing the tire and transmitting load. The bolt seats on the wheel rim are functional parts within the rim structure used to install and position bolts or nuts, ensuring that the wheel is correctly secured to the axle via the bolt system.
[0003] In specific wheel rim structures such as tractor drive wheels, bolt seats are fixed to the inner surface of the rim by welding, with their bottom surface welded to the rim. A rim bolt seat spot welding mold is a specialized tooling device for welding rim bolt seats; its core function is to achieve precise positioning of the bolt seats and ensure welding quality. However, conventional spot welding methods struggle to weld around the entire circumference of the bolt seat, especially at the lower connection point, making even welding difficult and affecting the strength of the connection between the bolt seat and the rim. Therefore, improvements are urgently needed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a spot welding mold for wheel rim bolt seats to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

A third cylinder is installed at the top of the welding seat, and the output end of the third cylinder is fixedly connected to the welding tool, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the position and height of the welding tool.
[0008] Preferably, the welding tool is located on the inner side of the inner wall of the rim body, and the welding tool does not interfere with the inner wall of the rim body.
[0009] Preferably, both the welding fixture and the arc-shaped movable toothed plate are annular structures with open lower ends, and the arc-shaped movable toothed plate is embedded in the inner wall of the welding fixture.
[0010] Preferably, the pusher clamp has a U-shaped structure, and an arc-shaped positioning groove is provided at the center of the surface of the pusher clamp.
