Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of spot welding machine technology, and in particular to a spot welding machine. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, spot welding machines adopt the principle of double-sided double-point overcurrent welding, which includes an upper electrode, a lower electrode, and a resistance welding unit. During operation, the two electrodes press the workpiece so that the two layers of metal form a certain contact resistance under the pressure of the two electrodes. When the welding current flows from one electrode to the other electrode, it forms an instantaneous thermal fusion at the two contact resistance points. The welding current also flows instantaneously from the other electrode along the two workpieces to this electrode to form a circuit, without damaging the internal structure of the workpiece being welded.

[0003] An existing patent (publication number: CN212496115U) discloses a precision spot welding machine, which includes a machine body, a lower electrode rod fixedly connected to the side wall of the machine body, the lower electrode rod being horizontally positioned and a lower electrode welding needle fixedly connected to the lower electrode rod, an upper electrode rod rotatably connected to the side wall of the machine body, an upper electrode welding needle fixedly connected to the upper electrode rod, the tip of the upper electrode welding needle being able to abut against the tip of the lower electrode welding needle, two connecting rods fixedly connected to the machine body, the two connecting rods being jointly fixedly connected to a spot welding plate, the spot welding plate having a welding opening at the position corresponding to the position between the upper electrode welding needle and the lower electrode welding needle, two fixing plates slidably connected to the upper surface of the spot welding plate, the two fixing plates being perpendicular to the spot welding plate and parallel to each other, a top plate slidably connected to the upper surface of the spot welding plate near the machine body, the top plate being perpendicular to the spot welding plate and perpendicular to the two fixing plates, the top plate being able to abut against the two fixing plates. This utility model has the effect of fast and precise spot welding.

[0004] However, in the above solution, it was found that because the spot welding operation was carried out at a single station, the operator had to remove the workpiece from the station and replace it with the workpiece after each spot welding was completed before spot welding could be carried out again. This made it impossible to achieve continuous operation and resulted in low spot welding efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a spot welding machine that can achieve multi-station switching without affecting spot welding work, thus achieving continuous operation and improving spot welding efficiency. This solves the problem of existing technologies that use a single station to complete the work, which requires the operator to remove the workpiece after each operation and replace it with another workpiece before spot welding can be performed again, making continuous operation impossible and resulting in low spot welding efficiency.

[0006] The spot welding machine provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: it includes a mounting plate and a machine body. The back of the mounting plate is fixedly installed with the front of the machine body. A lower electrode module is provided on the front of the machine body. An upper electrode module is provided on the front of the machine body. A connecting arm is fixedly connected to the front of the machine body.

The limit rod limits the rotating disk, so that the rotating disk can drive the four workstations on the surface to rotate. The four through holes on the surface of the rotating disk correspond to the four workstations, thereby changing the orientation of the workpiece to be welded on the corresponding through holes. An annular part is set on the inner wall of the annular shell. A damping rod and a spring are set between the annular part and the mounting plate. During welding, the telescopic rod causes the upper electrode module to descend and press against the workpiece to be welded. At this time, the rotating disk descends under the action of the damping rod and the spring until the welding needle of the upper electrode module, the workpiece to be welded, and the welding needle of the lower electrode module contact, thus achieving spot welding. Therefore, this device can achieve multi-workstation switching and continuous operation without affecting the spot welding work, thereby improving the spot welding efficiency.

Thus, this device can realize multi-workstation switching without affecting spot welding work, achieving the effect of continuous operation and improving spot welding efficiency. By setting a fixing component to install the damping rod and the spring, a receiving groove is opened on the surface of the rotating disk to limit the clamping component. Under the action of the damping rod and the spring, the clamping component can move.

[0029] The upper surface of the rotating disk 8 is provided with equidistant receiving grooves 29. Equally spaced L-shaped plates 22 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the rotating disk 8. The equidistant receiving grooves 29 are positioned on the upper surface of the rotating disk 8. The L-shaped plates 22 are installed on the upper surface of the rotating disk 8 to block the back of the workpiece to be welded, thus limiting its movement. Equally spaced fixing members 23 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the rotating disk 8. Two damping rods 24 and two springs 25 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of each fixing member 23. The fixing members 23 are installed and fixed on the upper surface of the rotating disk 8 so that the rotating disk 8 can move the fixing members 23 when it rotates. The damping rods 24 and springs 25 are installed on the surface of the fixing members 23 to achieve the installation of the damping rods 24 and springs 25. The inner wall of the receiving groove 29 is slidably connected with clamping members 26. The other end of each damping rod 24 and spring 25 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the corresponding clamping member 26. The clamping members 26 are provided on the inner wall of the receiving groove 29 and are set as sliding connections to limit the clamping members 26.

[0030] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows: When performing spot welding, the operator first moves the corresponding clamping member 26 to the designated position, and then rotates the corresponding bolt member 27 to make the rubber block 28 contact the receiving groove 29, thereby limiting the position of four clamping members 26. Then, the workpiece to be welded is placed on the corresponding workstation, and the damping rod 24 and spring 25 are used to tighten the other four clamping members 26, thereby enabling the other four clamping members 26 to clamp the workpiece to be welded. The back of the workpiece to be welded is limited by the L-shaped plate 22. Then, the indexing motor 2 is started to drive the limiting rod 7 and the rotating disk 8 to rotate, so that the corresponding workstation on the rotating disk 8 drives the workpiece to be welded to rotate to the spot welding area, thereby realizing the continuous switching of the four workstations. During spot welding, the telescopic rod 16 is activated to make the workpiece to be welded rotate to the spot welding area. The upper electrode module 6 descends, pressing against the workpiece to be welded. Under the action of damping rod 10 and spring 11, the rotating disk 8 and the ring 9 descend until the welding needle of the upper electrode module 6, the workpiece to be welded, and the welding needle of the lower electrode module 5 come into contact, completing the spot welding. This allows the device to achieve multi-station switching and continuous operation without affecting the spot welding work, thus improving the spot welding efficiency. After the workpiece to be welded is spot welded, it is rotated to the front position, and the operator removes the workpiece. At this time, the debris can fall through the through hole on the surface of the rotating disk 8 to the collection shell 17 below, and is finally collected by the collection cylinder 18. By setting the magnetic connection of magnetic block 19 and magnetic block 21, the debris collected in the collection cylinder 18 can be quickly removed.
