[0025] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific implementation schemes. However, those skilled in the art should understand that the implementation schemes described below are only for illustrating this utility model and should not be regarded as limiting the scope of this utility model. Based on the implementation schemes in this utility model, all other implementation schemes obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0026] like Figures 1-5As shown, a welding system 100 for a shock absorber housing assembly 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided. The shock absorber housing assembly 200 includes a tubular portion 201 and two side wings 202 to be welded to the tubular portion 201. The welding system 100 includes a housing 10, a positioning mechanism 20, a clamping mechanism 30, and two gas welding mechanisms 40.

[0027] The housing 10 includes a base 11, a frame 12, and a lift door 13 mounted on the frame 12.

[0028] The positioning mechanism 20 is mounted on the base 11. The positioning mechanism 20 is used to clamp the tubular part 201 and to make the end of the tubular part 201 to be welded face the inside of the frame 12.

[0029] The clamping mechanism 30 is mounted on the base 11. The clamping mechanism 30 is provided with a rotating part 31. The rotating part 31 is provided with two clamping assemblies 32. The clamping assemblies 32 are used to abut the side wing 202 against the tubular part 201. The rotating part 31 can drive the shock absorber housing assembly 200 to rotate through the clamping assemblies 32.

[0030] The gas welding mechanism 40 is mounted on the base 11. The welding torch on the gas welding mechanism 40 can move to the tubular part 201 and the side wing part 202 and complete the welding.

[0031] It should be noted that the clamping assembly 32 on the clamping mechanism 30 in this utility model can rotate the shock absorber housing assembly 200 90° to the left and to the right respectively.

[0032] In this utility model, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the two clamping assemblies 32 are initially in a horizontal position. Before the first welding, the shock absorber housing assembly 200 is rotated 90° to the left. The welding torches on the two gas welding mechanisms 40 are moved to the tubular part 201 and the side wing part 202 and the welding is completed. The welding torches are then moved back. Subsequently, the shock absorber housing assembly 200 is rotated 180° to the right. The welding torches are moved to the tubular part 201 and the side wing part 202 again and the second welding is completed. Finally, the two clamping assemblies 32 are returned to the horizontal position, the lifting door 13 is opened, and the welded shock absorber housing assembly 200 is taken out.

[0033] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, the positioning mechanism 20 includes a mounting base 21, a first support 22, a first abutment portion 23, and a first support portion 24. The mounting base 21 is disposed on the base 11, the first support 22 is disposed on the mounting base 21, the first abutment portion 23 and the first support portion 24 are disposed on the first support 22 at intervals, and the first abutment portion 23 is movable toward the first support portion 24. The first support portion 24 is used to place the tubular portion 201, and the first abutment portion 23 is used to abut against the end of the tubular portion 201.

[0034] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, a slide rail 25 is provided on the first support 22, and a first abutment 23 is movably provided on the slide rail 25. A cylindrical member 231 is provided at the front end of the first abutment 23. The front end of the cylindrical member 231 has a boss (not shown) and the boss extends into the tubular part 201.

[0035] It is understandable that a cylindrical member 231 is provided on the first abutment portion 23, and the boss portion of the cylindrical member 231 is located inside the tubular portion 201, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the tubular portion 201 during rotation.

[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, there are multiple first support parts 24, and multiple first support parts 24 are arranged at intervals on the first support 22.

[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, the clamping mechanism 30 is also provided with an intermediate clamping block 33, which is disposed on the rotating part 31. The clamping assembly 32 is used to abut the tail end of the side wing part 202 against the intermediate clamping block 33.

[0038] Understandably, the intermediate clamping block 33 provides a stable force state for the tail ends of the two side wings 202, which helps to improve the stability of the side wings 202 during rotation.

[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, the clamping mechanism 30 is also provided with a rotating rod 34, which is disposed on the intermediate clamping block 33 and can abut against the end of the tubular part 201.

[0040] Understandably, the rotating rod 34 can abut against the end of the tubular portion 201, and the rotating rod 34 can assist in the rotation of the tubular portion 201.

[0041] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, both ends of the clamp assembly 32 are provided with retractable abutment rods 321, which are used to fix the side wing 202.

[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, the welding system 100 also includes: a first sensing component 50, which is disposed on the main body of the clamping mechanism 30. A sensing column element 35 is disposed on the clamping assembly 32. When the clamping assembly 32 is in a horizontal position, the sensing column element 35 corresponds to the first sensing component 50.

[0043] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-5As shown, the welding system 100 also includes a second sensing component 60, which is disposed on the main body of the clamping mechanism 30. The second sensing component 60 is a photoelectric emitting device. A receiving device 61 is disposed on the positioning mechanism 20. When the clamping assembly 32 is in a horizontal position, the photoelectric emitted by the second sensing component 60 is blocked by the side wing 202, and the receiving device 61 cannot receive the photoelectric.

[0044] Understandably, the design of the first sensing component 50 and the second sensing component 60 can effectively remind the operator whether the workpiece to be welded is in the predetermined position, thus avoiding the occurrence of safety accidents.

[0045] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, the welding system 100 also includes a pressing baffle 70, which is set on the positioning mechanism 20 via an adjusting arm and is used to fasten onto the tubular part 201.
