Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a welding fixture, particularly a welding fixture structure for the front frame. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the export of domestic car seats to both domestic and international markets, in order to adapt to different regulations, ride comfort, and after-sales prices, has led to diverse configurations for the same model. For example, different welding fixtures are required for welding the left and right seat backs. More importantly, the manual and electric adjustment mechanisms for the seat back frames use two different processes, but the welding method is the same: fusing the disc with the sheet metal. Depending on the type, at least four sets of welding fixtures are required. Due to the high requirements for the positioning points of the welding fixtures and the overlapping process of the sheet metal, the cost is high. Moreover, the inconsistent production of different models causes the number of items to increase exponentially. If the investment in welding fixtures is reduced, it will lead to frequent line changes and adjustments, causing great production problems.
[0003] Currently, a Chinese patent, "A Welding Fixture for an Automotive Interior Line Slide Skeleton Frame," publication number CN207873518U, has been found. It includes a flexible base and is characterized by a workpiece positioning device mounted on the flexible base. This workpiece positioning device comprises a guide wheel seat positioning mechanism, a frame positioning mechanism, a lifting sleeve positioning mechanism, a main beam positioning mechanism, and a pulley seat positioning mechanism. These mechanisms are respectively fixed to the flexible base, corresponding to the guide wheel seat, slide frame, lifting sleeve, main beam, and pulley seat positions. This patented automotive interior line slide skeleton welding fixture features a scientifically designed structure, offering advantages such as reduced personnel requirements, time and labor savings, fast welding speed, high efficiency, and guaranteed precision.

[0066] In this application, the left manual frame 63 (i.e., the frame where the manual position of the front seat is located on the left) includes a left side plate 66, a first angle adjuster 71, a right side plate 67, a second angle adjuster 72, a handle connection 73, an upper tube frame assembly 68, a ventilation sheet metal support assembly 69, and a lower sheet metal 70. The manual left side plate 66 is formed by stacking and welding a mounting disc 81, a flat spring 82, a first angle adjuster 71, a fixing plate 83, a manual fixing seat 84, and a handle connection 85.

The angle adjuster motor 80 is locked in the groove of the left-side side plate 66 by passing through the plum blossom linkage rod 79. The right-side manual frame 65 (i.e., the frame where the manual position of the front seat is located on the right) consists of a left-side side plate 88, an angle adjuster 93, a right-side side plate 67, an angle adjuster 94, an upper tube frame assembly 90, a ventilation sheet metal support group 91, and a lower sheet metal 92. This tooling combines the positioning methods of various backrest styles, so that the left and right backrests share the same features and the manual and electric adjustment mechanisms, truly realizing the sharing of multiple styles of a single tooling.
[0067] This utility model relates to a method for installing a front seat frame. First, the left side plate 66 (manual frame) is pre-fixed to the left side fixing plate 6 of the base plate. Then, a disc 81 and a flat ring 82 are installed on the left side plate 66. Next, after the first angle adjuster 71, fixing plate 83, manual fixing seat 84 and handle connection 85 are pre-fixed, the first angle adjuster 71, which contains multiple components, is installed into the first positioning pin 7 and the first positioning block 8 of the left fixing plate 6.

The second angle adjuster 72 of the right side plate 67 is installed into the fourth positioning pin 24 and the third positioning block 25 of the right fixing plate 23. 27. Insert the manual fixing seat for positioning (the electric angle adjuster has no fixing seat for positioning). The fifth positioning pin 28 and the sixth positioning pin 29 are respectively fixed to the assembly hole of the second angle adjuster 72. Place the upper tube frame assembly 68 in the groove of the second positioning block 40 for fixing. Place the lower sheet metal 70 in the groove of the second positioning block group 56 for positioning. Actuate the mechanical valve to raise the first top cylinder mechanism 9 and fix the first airbag fixing sheet metal 74. The first sheet metal positioning block 10 is used to further fix the first airbag fixing sheet metal 74 to prevent it from shifting. The second top cylinder mechanism 32 on the other side rises at the same time. Since each back frame only has an airbag fixing sheet metal on one side, the second sheet metal positioning block 33 inside is empty (this sub-assembly tooling has the feature that the left and right positioning blocks can fix back frames of different configurations and models).
[0068] Simultaneously, the fourth top cylinder mechanism 58 actuates, and the seventh positioning pin 57 rises to fix the lower sheet metal 70; at the same time, the third top cylinder mechanism 41 actuates, and the first pillow rod positioning pin 42 and the second pillow rod positioning pin 43 insert the cylindrical limit block into the pillow guide tube of the upper tube frame assembly 68 for fixation; then the mechanical valve is actuated, and the first top cylinder 11 moves the first connecting fixing plate 12 laterally through the first track 16 and the second track 17, so that the left side plate 66 overlaps with the lower left tube of the upper tube frame assembly 68, and so that the first angle adjuster positioning pin 13, the second positioning pin 14 and the third positioning pin 15 are aligned with the first adjustment... Angle adjuster 71 is limited; the second top cylinder 26 moves the second connecting fixing plate 30 laterally through the third rail 290 and the fourth rail 291, so that the right side plate 67 overlaps with the lower right pipe of the upper pipe rack assembly 68, and the second angle adjuster positioning pin 27, the fifth positioning pin 28 and the sixth positioning pin 29 limit the second angle adjuster 72; after fixing, the ventilation fan sheet metal 77 is pressed into the groove of the first positioning block group 48 for fixing; the mechanical valve is actuated, the fifth clamping mechanism 34, the sixth clamping mechanism 36 and the clamping mechanism 37 clamp the left side plate 66, and the third clamping mechanism Clamping mechanism 21 clamps the first airbag fixing sheet metal 74; clamping mechanism 22 clamps the first angle adjuster 71; clamping mechanisms 34, 36, and 37 clamp the right side connecting plate 67; clamping mechanism 35 clamps the airbag; clamping mechanism 38 clamps the second angle adjuster 72; clamping mechanism 45 clamps the left side of the upper tube frame assembly 68 and the left side connecting plate 66; clamping mechanism 46 clamps the right side of the upper tube frame assembly 68 and the right side connecting plate 67; clamping mechanism 44 clamps the upper tube frame assembly 68; clamping mechanism 49... The thirteenth clamping mechanism 50, the fourteenth clamping mechanism 51, the fifteenth clamping mechanism 52 and the sixteenth clamping mechanism 53 clamp the ventilation fan sheet metal 77; the twenty-first clamping mechanism 59 and the seventeenth clamping mechanism 60 clamp the inner side of the lower sheet metal 70; the eighteenth clamping mechanism 61 and the nineteenth clamping mechanism 62 clamp the outer side of the lower sheet metal 70. After each mechanism is clamped, the first pushing clamping mechanism 18 moves inward to confirm whether the workpiece is fixed in place, and the second pushing clamping mechanism 31 moves inward to confirm whether the workpiece is fixed in place. After confirming that each mechanism is fixed, the welding robot is operated to perform welding.
[0069] The left manual frame 63 first welds the four inner connections between the disc 81 and the first angle adjuster 71 (the first angle adjuster 71 has six through holes in a circumferential array in the circumferential direction, and the disc 81 has six protrusions corresponding to these six through holes). Specifically, the welding sequence of the four welds is the opposite first weld 97 and second weld 98, the opposite third weld 99 and fourth weld 100. The first weld 97 and the third weld 99 are adjacent, and the second weld 98 and the fourth weld 100 are adjacent. Then, the two outer connections between the disc 81 and the first angle adjuster 71 are welded (these two connections can be offset from the aforementioned four on the circumference, or partially overlap). The welding sequence is the opposite fifth weld 95 and the sixth weld 96. The welding method for the second angle adjuster 72 is the same.
[0070] Weld the left electric frame 64 (the left electric frame 64 has the same structure as the left manual frame 63). First, weld the four welds on the inner side of the electric angle adjuster 87, in the order of weld 103, weld 104, weld 105, and weld 106. Then weld the two welds on the outer side, in the order of weld 101 and weld 102. The welding method for the other electric angle adjuster is the same. After the manual back frame is welded, the tension spring 86 needs to be fixed at one end to the handle connection 85 and at the lower opening of the left side plate 66. After the electric back frame is welded, place the angle adjuster motor 80 inside the left side plate 88. After inserting the cloverleaf linkage rod from the left side into the two discs, fix the angle adjuster motor 80 inside the left side plate 88.
[0071] After the front frame is welded, the washer gasket 125 needs to be riveted. This riveting operation needs to be performed on the riveting device 108.
[0072] The riveting device 108 includes a frame 107, a left fixing mechanism 109, and a right fixing mechanism 110. The left fixing mechanism 109 includes an angle adjuster positioning block 1101 for fixing the left angle adjuster of the left electric frame 64, a linkage rod positioning block 111 for positioning the plum blossom linkage rod 79, and a washer positioning block 115 for fixing the washer gasket 125 on one side. The washer positioning block 115 is installed on the telescopic end of the top cylinder mechanism 112. The left fixing mechanism 109 is also provided with a hand clamping mechanism 113 for clamping the left angle adjuster of the left electric frame 64. The left fixing mechanism 109 is also provided with a sensor 114 (which can be a contact sensor, etc.) for sensing whether the washer gasket 125 is installed in place. If the washer gasket 125 is not placed, the top cylinder mechanism 112 will not move to close the clamp. The left fixing mechanism 109 is also provided with a tilting fixing mechanism. The back support block 116 of the left electric frame 64 and the right fixing mechanism 124 is fixed. The back support block 123 on the right fixing mechanism 110 has the same function as the back support block 116. The right fixing mechanism 110 includes an angle adjuster positioning block 117 for fixing the right angle adjuster of the left electric frame 64, a linkage rod positioning block 118 for positioning the plum blossom linkage rod 79, and a washer positioning block 122 for fixing the washer gasket 125 on one side. The washer positioning block 122 is installed on the telescopic end of the top cylinder mechanism 119. The right fixing mechanism 110 is also provided with a hand clamping mechanism 120 for clamping the right angle adjuster of the left electric frame 64, and a sensor 121 (which can be a contact sensor, etc.) for sensing whether the washer gasket 125 is installed in place. If the sensor 121 senses that the washer gasket 125 is not placed, the top cylinder mechanism 112 will not close the clamp.
[0073] The operating steps are as follows: First, place the two washer gaskets 125 into the washer positioning block 115 of the left fixing mechanism 109 and the washer positioning block 122 of the right fixing mechanism 110 of the riveting device 108, respectively, and fix them. Then, place the left electric frame 64 on the angle adjuster positioning block 1101 and the angle adjuster positioning block 117, and operate the handheld mechanism 113 and the handheld mechanism 120 respectively to clamp the left / right angle adjuster of the left electric frame 64. The sensors 114 and 121 check whether the washer gaskets 125 are placed in the grooves of the washer positioning blocks 115 and 122, and operate the top cylinder mechanism 112 and the top cylinder mechanism 119 simultaneously. The process of fixing the washer gasket 124 to the left and right ends of the left electric frame 64 and the plum blossom linkage rod 79 is completed. After the two clamps of the riveting device 108 detect the presence of the washer gasket 124 under the action of the sensor, the top cylinder can be activated to clamp the washer gasket 124. The washer gasket 124 is made of ultra-thin high-quality steel with a thickness of only 0.25MM. Manual and equipment installation often results in omissions and misalignments, so it is necessary to install highly sensitive sensors on the left and right sides. The main purpose is to limit the plum blossom linkage rod 79, and the positioning distance must also be uniform. Otherwise, it will cause abnormal noise when the vehicle collides with the outer cover during dynamic driving.
[0074] Advantages of the front frame welding fixture structure of this utility model:
[0075] 1. This application enables the welding fixture positioning point to install the manual fixing seat 84 and the handle to be connected and fixed, so as not to affect the clamping of the electric angle adjuster 87; through the first angle adjuster positioning pin 13, it only fixes the manual fixing seat 84, and each first angle adjuster positioning pin 13 fixes the first angle adjuster 71 and the second angle adjuster 72 through the special-shaped block.
[0076] 2. By setting the seventh clamping mechanism 35 and the second sheet metal positioning block 33 to fix the second airbag fixing sheet metal 75, the overall clamping will not be affected regardless of whether there is an airbag fixing sheet metal; this not only reduces material costs but also improves production efficiency.
[0077] 3. This welding fixture and installation method make it a shared welding fixture for both left and right chair backs, thereby reducing the investment in tooling and fixtures, lowering investment costs, reducing mold and line change time, and greatly improving work efficiency.
[0078] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the specific implementation of this utility model or equivalent substitutions can be made to some technical features without departing from the spirit of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the technical solution claimed by this utility model.
