Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of laser welding technology, and more specifically, it relates to an automated laser welding workstation. Background Technology

[0002] Laser welding is a highly efficient and precise welding method that uses a high-energy-density laser beam as a heat source. Due to its high welding quality and efficiency, it has been widely used in the automotive industry and other related fields.

[0003] Based on the above, the inventors have discovered the following problems: In the process of using existing laser welding, the laser welding head is mostly exposed to the outside when idle, and cannot be effectively protected. Dust in the air is easily adsorbed on the surface of the laser welding head, which will cause inconvenience to the workers in subsequent welding processes.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we will study and improve the existing structure and its shortcomings to provide an automated laser welding workstation, in order to achieve a more practical value. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose and effectiveness of this automated laser welding workstation are achieved through the following specific technical means: An automated laser welding workstation includes a set of positioner base frames, with positioner tooling connection frames arranged between adjacent positions of the set of positioner base frames. A welding robot is mounted on the top of the positioner tooling connection frame, and a frame is mounted on one end of the welding robot. A laser welding head is mounted on the bottom of the frame, and an installation groove is formed at the edge of the laser welding head at the bottom of the frame. A protective cover is mounted on the bottom of the frame, and a mechanism for limiting the protective cover is provided inside the frame.

[0006] Furthermore, the mechanism for the limiting protective cover includes a connecting rod, the surface of which is fitted with a spring, a limiting block is installed at one end of the connecting rod, a locking block is installed at one end of the limiting block, and one end of the locking block extends through the interior of the mounting groove.

[0007] Furthermore, a slot is provided on one side of the protective cover, the protective cover is installed inside the mounting slot, and the locking block is engaged inside the slot.

[0008] Furthermore, a tie rod is installed on one side of the frame, and one end of the tie rod passes through the frame and connects to the connecting rod inside.

[0009] Furthermore, a welding fixture is installed at the top of the positioner base frame, and a number of cylinders are installed at the top of the welding fixture.

[0010] Furthermore, a set of flipping and positioning machines are installed at both ends of the welding fixture.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: By utilizing the interlocking mechanism between the locking block and the slot, after the laser welding head is used, the operator can pull the lever to move the connecting rod, limit block, and locking block, thereby installing the protective cover into the mounting slot. Simultaneously, releasing the lever will cause the locking block to automatically engage with the slot under the action of the spring, thus securing the protective cover. The operation is very simple and can effectively protect the laser welding head, indirectly improving the protection performance. Furthermore, this design greatly increases practicality.

[0019] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 3 As shown: This utility model provides an automated laser welding workstation, including a set of positioner base frames 1, with positioner tooling connection frames 6 arranged between adjacent positions of the set of positioner base frames 1, a welding robot 16 mounted on the top of the positioner tooling connection frame 6, a frame body 7 mounted on one end of the welding robot 16, a laser welding head 9 mounted on the bottom of the frame body 7, and an installation groove 12 opened at the edge of the laser welding head 9 at the bottom of the frame body 7, a protective cover 10 mounted on the bottom of the frame body 7, and a mechanism for limiting the protective cover inside the frame body 7.

[0020] The mechanism for limiting the protective cover includes a connecting rod 14, a spring 15 is sleeved on the surface of the connecting rod 14, a limiting block 13 is installed at one end of the connecting rod 14, a locking block 5 is installed at one end of the limiting block 13, and one end of the locking block 5 extends into the interior of the mounting groove 12.

[0021] The protective cover 10 has a slot 11 on one side. The protective cover 10 is installed inside the mounting slot 12, and the locking block 5 is engaged inside the slot 11. Through the cooperation between the locking block 5 and the slot 11, after the laser welding head 9 is used, the operator can pull the pull rod 8 to move the connecting rod 14, the limiting block 13 and the locking block 5, and install the protective cover 10 inside the mounting slot 12. At the same time, when the pull rod 8 is released, the locking block 5 will automatically engage inside the slot 11 under the action of the spring 15, thereby fixing the protective cover 10.
