[0028] Reference Figure 1 A tooling for friction welding includes: a base 500, a first mounting base 100, a second mounting base 200, a positioning structure 700, and a fixing structure 600. Both the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 are slidably mounted on the base 500. The positioning structure 700 is disposed on at least one of the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 and moves with it. The positioning structure 700 is used to position and mount a workpiece onto at least one of the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200. The fixing structure 600 is disposed on at least one of the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 and is used to fix at least one of the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 relative to the base 500. The first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 can be used to load workpieces of different sizes and types. During friction welding, one of the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 can be slid relative to the base 500 to the processing position and fixed by the fixing structure 600, allowing friction welding of the workpiece mounted thereon. By switching the relative positions of the first mounting base 100, the second mounting base 200, and the base 500, the workpiece at the processing position can be easily and conveniently switched without repeated disassembly and reassembly of the tooling and the base 500. This offers the advantage of convenient switching and effectively reduces the operation time required for the switching process. Furthermore, it eliminates the debugging and testing procedures required when repeatedly disassembling and reassembling the tooling, thus effectively reducing operating costs.

[0029] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 2 The base 500 is provided with a slide rail 800. At least one of the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 is mounted on the slide rail 800 and can slide relative to the slide rail 800. The slide rail 800 can guide the relative movement between the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 relative to the base 500, thereby ensuring that the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 can move smoothly and accurately between predetermined positions, and can effectively improve the movement stability of the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200, and prevent them from becoming unbalanced or detaching from the base 500 during movement.

[0030] Specifically, both the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 can be slidably mounted on the slide rail 800, and are respectively connected to both ends of the slide rail 800. Alternatively, only one of the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 can be mounted on the slide rail 800, while the other is mounted on the base 500 via a pivot, rocker arm, or other movable connection method. The specific implementation is not unique and can be adjusted according to actual circumstances; therefore, no limitation is imposed here.

[0031] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 1 The fixing structure 600 includes a stop block 650 located at the end of the slide rail 800 and capable of abutting against at least one of the first mounting seat 100 and the second mounting seat 200. After the first mounting seat 100 or the second mounting seat 200 has moved to the end of the slide rail 800, the stop block 650 will abut and block it, thereby stopping its movement. Thus, the position of the first mounting seat 100 or the second mounting seat 200 can be effectively positioned at the end of the slide rail 800, ensuring that the first mounting seat 100 or the second mounting seat 200 can accurately move the workpiece to the processing position.

[0032] It is conceivable that the stop block 650 may be provided at both ends of the slide rail 800, or it may be provided at only one end of the slide rail 800. The specific implementation method is not unique, but can be adjusted accordingly according to the actual situation, and is not limited here.

[0033] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 1 The fixing structure 600 includes a pin (not shown in the figure), and the base 500 can fix the first mounting seat 100 or the second mounting seat 200, which has been displaced to the end of the slide rail 800, through the pin. After the first mounting seat 100 or the second mounting seat 200 moves to the end of the slide rail 800, the first mounting seat 100 or the second mounting seat 200 can be inserted into the pin, and the connection between the pin and the base 500 achieves the fixing effect of the first mounting seat 100 or the second mounting seat 200. Thus, the first mounting seat 100 or the second mounting seat 200 can fix the workpiece in a predetermined position on the base 500, so that the workpiece can be processed stably and smoothly.

[0034] Specifically, the base 500 at both ends of the slide rail 800, the first mounting base 100, and the second mounting base 200 are all provided with holes (not shown in the figure). When the first mounting base 100 moves to one end of the slide rail 800, the holes of the first mounting base 100 and the base 500 will align with each other, allowing the pin to be inserted into the holes and relatively fixing the base 500 and the first mounting base 100. Similarly, when the second mounting base 200 moves to the other end of the slide rail 800, the holes of the second mounting base 200 and the base 500 will align with each other, allowing the pin to be inserted into the holes and relatively fixing the base 500 and the second mounting base 200.

[0035] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 The positioning structure 700 includes a positioning block 720 and a pushing cylinder 730. The positioning block 720 is installed on at least one of the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200. The pushing cylinder 730 cooperates with the positioning block 720 to clamp and fix the workpiece. After the workpiece is placed on the first mounting base 100 or the second mounting base 200, the pushing cylinder 730 is activated and pushes the workpiece until it abuts against the positioning block 720. Thus, the workpiece is clamped by the pushing cylinder 730 and the positioning block 720, thereby fixing the first mounting base 100 or the second mounting base 200 relative to the workpiece and ensuring that the workpiece will not loosen or fall off.

[0036] Specifically, both the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 are equipped with positioning blocks 720 and propulsion cylinders 730. There are two sets of propulsion cylinders 730, located on the left and right sides of the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 in their direction of movement. There are also two sets of positioning blocks 720, distributed corresponding to the propulsion cylinders 730. In the first mounting base 100, each set of propulsion cylinders 730 contains two or more cylinders and is used to mount larger workpieces. In the second mounting base 200, each set of propulsion cylinders 730 contains two or fewer cylinders and is used to mount smaller workpieces.

[0037] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 The positioning block 720 and the propulsion cylinder 730 are located on both sides of the first mounting base 100. The first mounting base 100 is equipped with a clamping cylinder 710, which can clamp and fix the workpiece from above the first mounting base 100. The propulsion cylinder 730 and the positioning block 720 will clamp and fix the workpiece from the side, while the clamping cylinder 710 will cooperate with the first mounting base 100 to clamp and fix the workpiece from the top and bottom. Thus, the workpiece can achieve a comprehensive fixation effect in multiple directions, thereby effectively improving the installation stability of the workpiece.

[0038] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 4 The first mounting base 100 is provided with a first limiting block 410 and a second limiting block 420, and a positioning groove 715 for accommodating the protruding part of the workpiece is formed between the first limiting block 410 and the second limiting block 420; the first limiting block 410 and the second limiting block 420 are both located between the positioning block 720 and the push cylinder 730. The first limiting block 410 and the second limiting block 420 can cooperate to form the positioning groove 715 on the first mounting base 100, so that the protruding part of the workpiece can be accommodated through the positioning groove 715. Therefore, when the workpiece is installed on the first mounting base 100, its protruding part will be protected by the positioning groove 715, and it is difficult for it to be compressed or stretched under the action of the push cylinder 730 and the clamping cylinder 710, thereby effectively avoiding damage to the workpiece.

[0039] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 5 The positioning block 720 and the propulsion cylinder 730 are located on both sides of the second mounting base 200. The second mounting base 200 is equipped with a clamping cylinder 710, which can clamp and fix the workpiece from above the second mounting base 200. The propulsion cylinder 730 and the positioning block 720 will clamp and fix the workpiece from the side, while the clamping cylinder 710 will cooperate with the second mounting base 200 to clamp and fix the workpiece from the top and bottom. Therefore, the workpiece can achieve a comprehensive fixation effect in multiple directions, thereby effectively improving the installation stability of the workpiece.

[0040] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 2 The second mounting base 200 is provided with a support block 750, which is located between the positioning block 720 and the propulsion cylinder 730. The support block 750 is used to cooperate with the clamping cylinder 710 to clamp and fix the workpiece from the upper and lower sides. The support block 750 can lift the workpiece relative to the bottom of the second mounting base 200, thereby reducing the contact area between the workpiece and the second mounting base 200, and thus reducing the frictional wear caused by the force applied by the clamping cylinder 710 and the propulsion cylinder 730.

[0041] It is foreseeable that the first mounting base 100 may also be provided with a support block 750. The specific implementation method is not unique, but can be adjusted according to the actual situation, and no restrictions are imposed here.

[0042] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 1The base 500 is equipped with a fixed station 130, and the positioning structures 700 are multiple sets located at the fixed station 130, the first mounting base 100, and the second mounting base 200, respectively. The fixed station 130 can be distinguished from the first mounting base 100 and the second mounting base 200 and is used to load workpieces of fixed size and type. Therefore, for workpieces of fixed type with large production batches, they can be directly loaded into the fixed station 130 and processed at the fixed station 130 without adjusting the positional relationship of the first mounting base 100 or the second mounting base 200, thereby reducing the amount of operation and effectively improving processing efficiency.

[0043] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0044] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
