Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of welding device technology, specifically a magnetic trolley for a welding robot. Background Technology
[0002] A welding robot is an automated device specifically designed to perform welding tasks, capable of completing various welding operations with high precision, high quality, and high efficiency. These robots are typically equipped with a six-axis robotic arm, giving them exceptional flexibility and enabling them to operate in complex working environments.
[0003] Existing welding robots are relatively fixed in position during use. Although they are equipped with six-axis robotic arms that can be used in conjunction with them, they do not have the corresponding welding capabilities when welding tall steel plates, especially when welding steel plates that need to be welded vertically. Therefore, we propose a magnetic trolley for welding robots. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a magnetic trolley for welding robots to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a magnetic suction trolley for welding robots, comprising a mounting housing, a six-axis robotic arm fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting housing, a welding head fixedly connected to one end of the six-axis robotic arm, two sets of drive mechanisms fixedly mounted inside the mounting housing, magnetic suction wheels keyed to the outside of the drive mechanisms, the drive mechanisms and magnetic suction wheels connected by locking bolts, an auxiliary support mechanism provided on one side bottom of the mounting housing, and a controller and a wireless communication module provided inside the mounting housing.
[0006] Furthermore, the mounting housing includes a protective shell, a top plate, a bottom plate, and heat dissipation slots. The top plate is fixedly installed on the top of the protective shell, and the bottom plate is fixedly installed on the bottom of the protective shell. Multiple sets of heat dissipation slots are formed on one side of the bottom of the bottom plate.
[0007] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes a mounting bracket, a reducer, a servo motor, and a drive shaft. The reducer is fixedly mounted on the base plate via two sets of mounting brackets. Two sets of servo motors are fixedly mounted on the base plate. The output end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the reducer. One end of the reducer is fixedly connected to a drive shaft that is connected to a magnetic chuck.
[0008] Furthermore, the auxiliary support mechanism includes a fixed disk, a rotating shaft, and an auxiliary support wheel. The fixed disk is fixedly installed on the top plate, the rotating shaft is rotatably connected inside the fixed disk, and the auxiliary support wheel is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rotating shaft.
[0009] Furthermore, two sets of lifting handles are fixedly installed on the top of the top plate.
[0010] Furthermore, two sets of cooling fans are fixedly installed on one side of the protective shell.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: The mounting housing of the present invention is used to support the drive mechanism, and the output end of the drive mechanism is fixedly connected to a magnetic wheel. This configuration allows the trolley to run on a steel plate surface perpendicular to the ground, thereby enabling the six-axis robotic arm and welding head to move to the corresponding welding position. Moreover, the auxiliary support mechanism can support the rear end of the mounting housing and can cooperate with the drive mechanism to make the entire device easy to move. The wireless communication module and controller can cooperate to wirelessly connect with an external remote control, thereby enabling wireless control of the drive mechanism, the six-axis robotic arm and the welding head, thus allowing the entire device to be transported to a location inaccessible by humans for welding operations.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a magnetic suction trolley for welding robots, including a mounting housing 1. A six-axis robotic arm 6 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting housing 1. A welding head 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the six-axis robotic arm 6. Two sets of drive mechanisms 2 are fixedly mounted inside the mounting housing 1. Magnetic suction wheels 4 are keyed to the outside of the drive mechanisms 2. The drive mechanisms 2 and the magnetic suction wheels 4 are connected by locking bolts 3. An auxiliary support mechanism 5 is provided on the bottom side of the mounting housing 1. A controller 16 and a wireless communication module 22 are provided inside the mounting housing 1.
[0019] The mounting housing 1 supports the drive mechanism 2, and the output end of the drive mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to a magnetic wheel 4. This configuration allows the trolley to run on a steel plate perpendicular to the ground, thereby enabling the six-axis robotic arm 6 and the welding head 7 to move to the corresponding welding positions. The auxiliary support mechanism 5 supports the rear end of the mounting housing 1 and works in conjunction with the drive mechanism 2 to facilitate the movement of the entire device. The wireless communication module 22 and the controller 16 work together to wirelessly connect with an external remote control, thereby enabling wireless control of the drive mechanism 2, the six-axis robotic arm 6, and the welding head 7. This allows the entire device to be transported to locations inaccessible to humans for welding operations.
[0020] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The mounting housing 1 includes a protective shell 8, a top plate 9, a bottom plate 10, and heat dissipation grooves 11. The top plate 9 is fixedly installed on the top of the protective shell 8, and the bottom plate 10 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the protective shell 8. Multiple sets of heat dissipation grooves 11 are opened on one side of the bottom of the bottom plate 10, and two sets of cooling fans 17 are fixedly installed on one side of the protective shell 8.
[0021] The protective shell 8 has a top plate 9 on its top, and one side of the top plate 9 extends backward to install and fix the auxiliary support mechanism 5. The heat dissipation groove 11 on the bottom plate 10 can facilitate heat dissipation when the drive mechanism 2 is operating. The two sets of cooling fans 17 can facilitate the dissipation of heat inside the mounting shell 1, thereby preventing the heat inside the mounting shell 1 from accumulating and affecting the normal use of the internal components.
[0022] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The drive mechanism 2 includes a mounting bracket 12, a reducer 13, a servo motor 14, and a drive shaft 15. The reducer 13 is fixedly mounted on the base plate 10 via two sets of mounting brackets 12. Two sets of servo motors 14 are fixedly mounted on the base plate 10. The output end of the servo motor 14 is fixedly connected to the reducer 13. One end of the reducer 13 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 15, which is connected to the magnetic chuck 4.
[0023] The drive mechanism 2 is set into two groups and is controlled independently. The servo motors 14 located in the left and right positions can drive the two sets of drive shafts 15 and magnetic wheels 4 respectively through the reducer 13. This allows for independent control of the start, stop and speed of the servo motors 14, achieving differential speed and enabling the entire device to turn. The magnetic wheels 4 can also attract the steel plate, thus enabling the entire device to climb.
[0024] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The auxiliary support mechanism 5 includes a fixed disk 18, a rotating shaft 19, and an auxiliary support wheel 20. The fixed disk 18 is fixedly installed on the top plate 9. The rotating shaft 19 is rotatably connected inside the fixed disk 18. The auxiliary support wheel 20 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rotating shaft 19.
[0025] The auxiliary support wheel 20 is rotatably connected to the fixed plate 18 via the rotating shaft 19. This arrangement can always support and limit the mounting housing 1 when the entire device moves.
[0026] Please see Figure 2 Two sets of lifting handles 21 are fixedly installed on the top of the top plate 9. The lifting handles 21 on the top plate 9 can facilitate the movement and transportation of the entire device.
[0027] In use, the mounting housing 1 supports the drive mechanism 2, and the output end of the drive mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to a magnetic wheel 4. This configuration allows the trolley to run on a steel plate perpendicular to the ground, enabling the six-axis robotic arm 6 and welding head 7 to move to the corresponding welding positions. The auxiliary support mechanism 5 supports the rear end of the mounting housing 1 and works in conjunction with the drive mechanism 2 to facilitate the movement of the entire device. The wireless communication module 22 and controller 16 work together to wirelessly connect to an external remote control, enabling wireless control of the drive mechanism 2, the six-axis robotic arm 6, and the welding head 7. This allows the entire device to be transported to locations inaccessible to manual welding operations. The protective housing 8 has a top plate 9 on its top, with one side of the top plate 9 extending rearward to mount and fix the auxiliary support mechanism 5. The heat dissipation slots 11 on the plate 10 facilitate heat dissipation during the operation of the drive mechanism 2, while the two sets of cooling fans 17 facilitate the dissipation of heat from the inside of the mounting housing 1, thus preventing the continuous accumulation of heat inside the mounting housing 1 from affecting the normal operation of the internal components. The drive mechanism 2 is set into two sets, which are controlled independently. Thus, the servo motors 14 located in the left and right positions can drive the two sets of drive shafts 15 and magnetic rollers 4 respectively through the reducer 13. This allows for independent control of the start, stop, and speed of the servo motors 14, achieving differential speed and enabling the entire device to turn. Furthermore, the magnetic rollers 4 can attract each other to the steel plate, thus enabling the entire device to climb. The auxiliary support wheels 20 are rotatably connected to the fixed plate 18 through the rotating shaft 19. This configuration ensures that the mounting housing 1 is always supported and limited during the movement of the entire device.
[0028] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
