[0003] The grounding clamp is an important accessory for welding machines, serving to connect the welding machine to the workpiece. However, due to prolonged operation and high-power, high-current welding, the grounding clamp can overheat and glow red, causing the clamp spring to soften and the clamp to deform. This can lead to issues such as sparking during operation and a short service life. Using it in hazardous areas could result in accidents such as fires or electric shocks. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a spark-proof grounding clamp for welding machines, which solves the problem that due to long-term operation of welding machines with high power and high current, the grounding clamp will heat up and turn red, causing the grounding clamp spring to soften and the grounding clamp to deform, resulting in sparking and short service life during operation. In addition, it may cause accidents such as fire and electric shock when used in dangerous areas.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a spark-proof grounding clamp for an electric welding machine, comprising a screw rod, a handle welded to the upper end of the screw rod, an upper clamping plate connected to the outer side of the screw rod by a thread, a lower clamping plate fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the screw rod and below the upper clamping plate, a friction groove one being formed at the lower end of the upper clamping plate, a friction groove two being formed at the upper end of the lower clamping plate, a guide post fixedly connected to the lower left side of the upper clamping plate, the guide post being slidably connected to the lower clamping plate, and an anti-detachment mechanism being provided on both the screw rod and the lower clamping plate.
[0006] The principle of this utility model is as follows: by inserting the grounding wire between the fixing plate and the pressure plate, the grounding wire comes into contact with the friction plate. Then, the pressure plate is pushed up, which drives the bolt to move, so that the bolt slides along the inner wall of the fixing plate, and the grounding wire is submerged in the friction groove. Then, the washer is pushed through the screw, so that the washer comes into contact with the fixing plate, and the friction block comes into contact with the fixing plate. Then, the nut is pushed to contact the bolt surface. Under the threaded connection, the nut can be installed, and the bolt can be fixed, so that the pressure plate cooperates with the fixing plate to complete the fixing of the grounding wire.
[0007] By pulling the end ball away from the fixed frame, the telescopic plate slides along the vertical part of the fixed frame, causing the insertion post to move. This causes the elastic rope to deform and the insertion post to disengage from the insertion hole. Then, the handle is pushed to rotate, causing the screw to rotate. Due to the threaded connection, the upper clamping plate can be moved, causing the guide post to slide along the inner wall of the lower clamping plate. This allows the upper clamping plate to contact the weldment. Together with the action of the lower clamping plate, the grounding clamp can be kept in a stable clamping state. Finally, the end ball is released, allowing the elastic rope to recover its deformation and pushing the insertion post to insert into the next insertion hole on the screw surface, limiting the screw and preventing vibration and deflection of the screw.
[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This solution uses the screw, handle, guide post and other structures to drive the upper clamping plate to move, and with the action of the lower clamping plate, the ground wire can be clamped and fixed on the weldment. With the action of the insertion hole, insertion post and other structures, the screw can be inserted and limited, avoiding the problem of the upper clamping plate loosening due to screw vibration and deflection. With the action of the pressure plate, fixing plate and other structures, the grounding wire can be clamped.

With the cooperation of bolts and nuts, the pressure plate can be firmly locked. In addition, with the action of friction block and gasket, the installation stability of nut can be improved, so as to ensure the stable pressing of grounding wire.
[0009] Furthermore, multiple friction grooves are provided, and the multiple friction grooves are evenly distributed on the upper clamping plate. Multiple friction grooves are provided, and the multiple friction grooves are evenly distributed on the lower clamping plate. By providing friction grooves one and friction groove two, the friction effect on the surfaces of the upper and lower clamping plates can be improved.
[0010] Furthermore, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the left end of the upper clamping plate, a bolt is movably connected to the inner wall of the fixing plate, a pressure plate is movably connected to the outer side of the bolt, the pressure plate is slidably connected to the upper clamping plate, a washer is in contact with the upper end of the fixing plate, the washer is movably connected to the bolt, a nut is threaded to the outer side of the bolt, the nut is in contact with the washer, and a friction groove is provided at the lower end of the fixing plate. Through the action of the bolt, nut and other structures, the pressure plate can clamp and fix the grounding wire for use.
[0011] Furthermore, six friction blocks arranged in a circular array are fixedly connected to the side of the gasket, and each friction block is in contact with the fixed plate. The contact friction effect of the gasket can be improved by setting the friction blocks.
[0012] Furthermore, a plurality of friction plates are fixedly connected to the upper end of the pressure plate, and the plurality of friction plates are evenly distributed on the pressure plate. By setting the friction plates, the friction effect of the pressure plate can be improved.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, a fixing plate 9 is fixedly connected to the left end of the upper clamping plate 3.

Through the action of the bolt 10, nut 13 and other structures, the pressure plate 11 can clamp and fix the grounding wire.
[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5As shown, six friction blocks 14 arranged in a circular array are fixedly connected to the side of the gasket 12. Each friction block 14 is in contact with the fixed plate 9. The friction blocks 14 can improve the contact friction effect of the gasket 12. Multiple friction plates 16 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the pressure plate 11. The multiple friction plates 16 are evenly distributed on the pressure plate 11.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the screw 1 and the lower clamping plate 4 are jointly provided with an anti-detachment mechanism 8. The anti-detachment mechanism 8 includes a socket 81. The end face of the screw 1 has a socket 81. Multiple sockets 81 are arranged in a ring array on the screw 1.

[0027] The specific implementation process of this utility model is as follows: By inserting the grounding wire between the fixing plate 9 and the pressure plate 11, the grounding wire comes into contact with the friction plate 16.

Under the threaded connection, the nut 13 can be installed, thereby fixing the bolt 10, so that the pressure plate 11 cooperates with the fixing plate 9 to complete the fixing of the grounding wire.
[0028] By pulling the end ball 84 away from the fixed frame 82, the telescopic piece 83 slides along the vertical part of the fixed frame 82, and the insertion post 85 moves, causing the elastic rope 86 to deform and the insertion post 85 to disengage from the insertion hole 81.

Due to the threaded connection, the upper clamping plate 3 can be moved, and the guide post 7 can slide along the inner wall of the lower clamping plate 4, so that the upper clamping plate 3 contacts the weldment. With the action of the lower clamping plate 4, the grounding clamp can be kept in a stable clamping state. Finally, the end ball 84 is released, so that the elastic rope 86 returns to its original deformation, pushing the insertion post 85 to insert into the next insertion hole 81 on the surface of the screw 1, limiting the screw 1 and preventing the screw 1 from vibrating and deflecting stably.
[0029] This solution utilizes the screw 1, handle 2, guide post 7, and other structures to drive the upper clamping plate 3 to move.
