Abstract:
The invention relates to a mounting device for the simultaneous welding of a plurality of sensor holders along a horizontal line of a bumper. Said mounting device can be adapted to different dimensions of bumpers and has one or two freely radiating diode lasers for each sensor holder. A holding-down element is arranged downstream thereof in the direction of emission, which includes a gripper for receiving the sensor holder and a holding-down element for introducing a contact pressure, said holding-down element being permeable in partial areas for the laser radiation of the diode laser.

Claim (Index 1):
A mounting device for simultaneous welding of several sensor holders to a bumper under contact pressure, said bumper having a horizontal line, extending in a mirror-symmetrical manner with respect to a vertical line and having a bumper length, along which horizontal line holes are formed in the bumper, around which each respective sensor holder can be welded simultaneously, and the sensor holders are each formed by a hollow cylinder with a cylinder axis and a mounting plate formed perpendicularly to said cylinder axis, said mounting device comprising\n a workbench connected to a holding fixture that is configured for the bumper such that the holes are respectively held in a welding position, a processing unit which is adjustable to the holding fixture and has as many welding tools as there are welding positions, each welding tool being positioned opposite a respective one of the welding positions in a working position of a frame, wherein said processing unit includes the frame which has a frame length and to which spacers are attached, each having a spacer axis which is perpendicular to the holding fixture in the working position, hold-down devices being attached to the free ends of the spacers, said welding tools each being formed by at least one freely radiating diode laser arranged above the hold-down device at a respective one of the spacers, the hold-down devices each having a gripper, for insertion into the hollow cylinder of one of the sensor holders and a hold-down element designed to contact the mounting plate thereof, wherein the hold-down element is transparent, at least in some areas, for laser radiation emitted by the at least one diode laser.
