Figures 1 to 4 It includes a first motor (not shown), a connecting rod 1, a shaped tube positioning block 2, a connecting spring 3, a positioning assembly 4, and a welding torch assembly 5.

[0033] In one embodiment, the first end of the connecting rod 1 is fixedly connected to the motor shaft of the first motor, and the second end of the connecting rod 1 is pivotally connected to the shaped tube positioning block 2. The first motor drives the connecting rod 1 to rotate relative to the shaped tube positioning block 2.

[0035] The first end of the connecting spring 3 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the motor fixing guide rail base 41, and the second end of the connecting spring 3 is fixedly connected to the motor fixing slider 43.

The first motor drives the connecting rod to rotate relative to the shaped tube positioning block. During this process, the distance between the welding torch tip and the shaped tube positioning block changes. The second motor is fixedly connected to the motor-fixed slider. Under the pull of the connecting spring, the positioning bearing is pressed tightly against the shaped tube positioning block, ensuring that the positioning bearing rotates along the contour of the shaped tube. The second motor fine-tunes the angle of the welding torch to ensure that the welding torch is always perpendicular to the tangent of the welding position of the shaped tube. In this operating mode, the welding current and swing angle of each segment need to be controlled and set according to the actual shape of the shaped tube and the requirements to prevent the linear energy from being too large or too small.
