Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of welding tooling technology, and in particular to a welding tooling for a partition reinforcing rib. Background Technology
[0002] When a tank truck is in operation, the vibration of the liquid inside the tank generates a significant impact force on the tank's sidewalls. If this impact force cannot be effectively absorbed, it will seriously affect the safety and lifespan of the tank truck. Therefore, it is necessary to install wave deflectors on the inner wall of the tank to eliminate or reduce the impact force of the liquid on the tank. Alternatively, in a tank truck, baffles may be added inside the tank to separate multiple spaces. To increase the structural strength of wave deflectors or other types of baffles, reinforcing ribs are generally welded onto the baffles. If the baffle is not a flat plate structure, it is prone to shaking or displacement during welding, leading to poor welding. To solve the above problems, existing technologies use perforated support platforms to place the baffles to prevent them from shaking. However, excessive force applied during welding can still cause the baffles to shift, affecting the welding yield. Utility Model Content

[0034] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, this embodiment provides a welding fixture for a partition reinforcing rib, wherein the partition 100 is, for example, a wave baffle inside a tank truck. The welding fixture for the partition reinforcing rib includes a base frame 1, a partition support seat 2, and a positioning mechanism. The partition support seat 2 is disposed on the base frame 1, and a placement station is formed on the partition support seat 2 for placing the partition 100. The positioning mechanism includes a plurality of positioning components 3 that are spaced apart along the outer periphery of the placement station on the base frame 1. The position of each positioning component 3 is adjustable so that it can approach or move away from the outer edge of the partition 100, and is used to press down on or release the outer edge of the partition 100 upward. When it is necessary to weld reinforcing ribs to the partition 100, the partition 100 is placed on the placement station. Then, several positioning components 3 are adjusted to be close to the outer edge of the partition 100 and pressed down on the outer edge of the partition 100 to press the partition 100 on the placement station, thereby achieving the positioning of the partition 100 and ensuring the positional stability during the welding process, thus ensuring the welding yield and smoothness. After the welding is completed, the positioning components 3 are released from the partition 100 and adjusted to be away from the outer edge of the partition 100, so that the partition 100 can be removed.
[0035] Specifically, the partition support 2 includes at least two connecting beams 21 distributed along a first direction. The length direction of the connecting beams 21 extends along a second direction and their position along the first direction is adjustable. The first and second directions are perpendicular. Each connecting beam 21 is provided with at least two support blocks 22 distributed along the second direction. A placement station is formed between the multiple support blocks 22, and the partition 100 is placed on the multiple support blocks 22. It should be noted that some partitions 100 are not flat partitions 100, for example, partitions 100 are funnel-shaped. Through the support of several support blocks 22, various types of partitions 100 can be stably placed on the placement station.
[0036] For example, two connecting beams 21 are provided, and each supporting beam is provided with two supporting blocks 22, that is, four supporting blocks 22 support the partition plate 100. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of connecting beams 21 and the number of supporting blocks 22 can also be other, such as three connecting beams 21 and six supporting blocks 22, etc., depending on the actual needs.
[0037] Preferably, the position of each support block 22 is adjustable along the length of the corresponding connecting beam 21. For partitions 100 of different sizes, by adjusting the position of the connecting beam 21 in the first direction and adjusting the position of the support block 22 in the second direction, the support for partitions 100 of different sizes can be satisfied, which has a wide range of applications and good practicality.
[0038] In this embodiment, the cross-section of the connecting beam 21 is "I" shaped, that is, the connecting beam 21 includes an upper plate, a middle plate and a lower plate, and a stepped groove is formed on the lower surface of the support block 22, which slides with the upper plate.
[0039] More preferably, each support block 22 has a stepped surface, and the outer peripheral surface of the partition 100 can abut against the multiple stepped surfaces. The multiple stepped surfaces restrict the outer peripheral surface of the partition 100, making the position of the partition 100 on the plane stable and reliable. Furthermore, the positioning component 3 presses the partition 100 to stabilize its position in the height direction and enhances its positional stability on the plane. The stepped surface refers to the upper surface of the support block 22 having two planes with intersecting heights, forming a stepped surface between the two intersecting planes.
[0040] More specifically, connecting lugs 5 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the base frame 1. Each connecting lug 5 has a slot 50 extending in a first direction. One end of each connecting beam 21 is connected to a slot 50 on a connecting lug 5 by bolts. When the position of the connecting beam 21 needs to be adjusted, loosen the bolts at both ends of the connecting beam 21, then move the position of the connecting beam 21, and then tighten the bolts at both ends to fix the position of the connecting beam 21. The operation is simple and convenient, and the cost is low. Each connecting lug 5 can have one slot 50, meaning that multiple connecting beams 21 share the same slot 50 at the same end, or multiple slots 50 can be provided on each connecting lug 5, with one slot 50 corresponding to one end of each connecting beam 21.
[0041] Furthermore, each positioning component 3 includes a connecting seat 31, a guide shaft 32, a crimping connector 33, and a locking member 34. The connecting seat 31 is movably mounted on the base frame 1 so as to be close to or away from the outer edge of the partition 100. The guide shaft 32 is mounted on the connecting seat 31 and extends axially along the height direction. The crimping connector 33 is movably sleeved on the guide shaft 32. As the connecting seat 31 approaches the outer edge of the partition 100, the crimping connector 33 can rotate until its portion is above the partition 100. The locking member 34 is movably mounted on the guide shaft 32 and is used to press or release the crimping connector 33 to restrict or release the movement of the crimping connector 33. After the partition 100 is placed on the placement station, the movement of the connecting seat 31 drives the crimping connector 33 closer to the partition 100. Then, the crimping connector 33 is rotated around the guide shaft 32 until its part is above the partition 100. Next, the locking member 34 is moved, pressing the crimping connector 33 downwards. This causes the portion of the crimping connector 33 above the partition 100 to press down onto the partition 100 until it is fully pressed, thus positioning the partition 100. After welding is completed, the locking member 34 is moved to release the crimping connector 33, allowing it to rotate around the guide shaft 32 until it moves away from the partition 100. Simultaneously, the connecting seat 31 is moved to completely move the crimping connector 33 away from the partition 100, facilitating the removal of the partition 100.
[0042] The base frame 1 is provided with several mounting rods 4 spaced apart along the outer periphery of the placement station. Each connecting seat 31 is slidably connected to a mounting rod 4, for example, slidably sleeved on the mounting rod 4. For example, the extended axes of several mounting rods 4 intersect at a point located at the center of the placement station. That is, the movement trajectory of several connecting seats 31 is a circle with a radius of centered at this point. As the connecting seat 31 slides, the pressure joint 33 can move closer to or away from the outer edge of the partition 100, and the pressing force on the partition 100 is relatively evenly distributed.
[0043] In this embodiment, the crimp connector 33 includes a connecting cylinder 331 and a crimping hook plate 332 connected to the outside of the connecting cylinder 331. The connecting cylinder 331 is movably sleeved on the guide shaft 32, and the end of the crimping hook plate 332 facing away from the connecting cylinder 331 can be crimped onto the outer edge of the partition 100. By movably sleeved between the connecting cylinder 331 and the guide shaft 32, the crimp connector 33 can smoothly rotate along the guide shaft 32 to rotate the crimping hook plate 332 toward or away from the partition 100, thereby facilitating the crimping or removal of the partition 100.
[0044] Specifically, the guide shaft 32 is at least partially provided with external threads. The locking member 34 is threadedly connected to the external threads and is located above the crimping head 33. As the locking member 34 engages with the external threads, it moves along the height direction to press or release the crimping head 33. After the connecting seat 31 slides to the preset position and the crimping hook plate 332 rotates to be above the partition 100, the locking member 34 is turned. The locking member 34 moves downward along the guide shaft 32 and presses down on the connecting cylinder 331, fixing the position of the connecting cylinder 331 relative to the guide shaft 32. This causes the crimping hook plate 332 to press down on the partition 100, thus achieving the pressing of the partition 100. Similarly, turning the locking member 34 in the opposite direction causes it to move upward along the guide shaft 32, releasing the connecting cylinder 331. The connecting cylinder 331 can then move upward and rotate along the guide shaft 32, causing the crimping hook plate 332 to release the partition 100 and move away from the partition 100. Among them, the locking component 34 is, for example, a nut, which has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and has a low cost.
[0045] The following is the usage process of the welding fixture for the diaphragm reinforcing ribs provided in this embodiment:
[0046] Adjust the positions of the connecting beam 21 and the support block 22 according to the size of the partition 100 to be welded;
[0047] The partition 100 is suspended on several support blocks 22 by a hoisting mechanism, and the outer periphery of the partition 100 abuts against the stepped surface of the several support blocks 22.
[0048] Move the connecting seat 31 and the pressing head 33 so that one end of each pressing hook plate 332 is above the partition plate 100;
[0049] Tighten the locking piece 34 to press the pressure joint 33, thereby pressing the partition 100 and fixing the partition 100;
[0050] Begin welding reinforcing ribs onto partition 100;
[0051] After welding is completed, loosen the locking piece 34, move the pressure joint 33, and move the connecting seat 31 so that the pressure joint 33 is away from the partition plate 100.
[0052] The partition plate 100 on the support block 22 is lifted away by the hoisting mechanism.
