Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, with such supports molded from plastics material, including positioning means also obtained by moulding, the problem arises that these positioning means are usually not very precise
The resulting positioning accuracy of the part relative to the base plate is therefore about + / - 3mm, which can cause some problems when the assembly station is doing different operations on the part

Embodiment Construction

[0027] figure 1 Shown is a support 1 made by molding of plastics material, comprising a lower surface 2 resting on a base plate, not shown, which is moved by a loading and unloading chain of an assembly line.

[0028] The lower surface 2 comprises a hole 4 realized when the support 1 is molded, in which hole a pin fixed to the base plate is fitted, said pin comprising an upper end terminating in a conical portion. In order to position the support 1 on the base plate without stress, it is possible in particular to place a pin forming a centering device, and a further pin fitted in an oblong shape, the axis of which essentially rotates towards this centering device , to carry out the orientation of the support around the centering device.

[0029] The periphery of the upper surface 10 of the support 1 comprises bosses 8 of different heights, the upper part of which comprises inwardly inclined ramps constituting a mount for receiving the internal combustion engine of the motor v...

Abstract

The invention relates to a support produced by molding a plastic material, which receives a subassembly (70) for moving same on a serial assembly line, comprising first means for positioning said carrier with respect to the assembly line, and second means for positioning the subassembly relative to said support, characterized in that it comprises metal inserts (24, 26, 28, 32, 34) built into the carrier (21) during the molding thereof, wherein said inserts are then machined so as to at least partially produce the positioning means.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a handling support for a serial assembly line, and a method of manufacturing the handling support, in particular for the motor vehicle industry. Background technique [0002] Assembly lines for components of motor vehicles, such as engines, gearboxes or drivetrains, may include a base plate receiving a support, the lower portion of which may include positioning means positioned on the base plate, the base plate being conveyed through the production line to different assembly stations; the upper part of said support may comprise positioning means for supporting and positioning these parts of the motor vehicle. [0003] In general, the base plate is a standard element, which can be used for different types of components, and the support is a special element, adapted to each type of component it receives. [0004] It is likewise possible to move and position the part between the assembly stations to enable the assembly operation ...
