[0027] The present invention discloses a vehicle-mounted instrument screen laminating tool, and the specific scheme is as follows.

[0028] like Figure 1~Figure 4 As shown, a vehicle instrument screen laminating tool comprises a main fixture 1 for positioning the bottom shell half assembly in the vehicle instrument screen and a sub-fixture 2 for positioning the glass screen in the vehicle instrument screen. When the bottom shell half assembly is fixed to the main fixture 1 and the glass screen is fixed to the sub-fixture 2, the process production can be carried out, such as surface cleaning, plasma activation, glue coating, etc. for the vehicle instrument screen.

[0029] The sub-clamp 2 is disposed above the main clamp 1 and the sub-clamp 2 is docked with external automated production equipment.

[0030] Driven by the automated production equipment, the sub-clamp 2 can be turned 180° as a whole, so that the glass screen positioned on the sub-clamp 2 fits with the bottom shell half assembly positioned on the main body clamp 1, and then locked and pressure-maintained by the locking mechanism 122 inside the main body clamp 1, and unlocked after reaching the specified pressure-maintaining time, finally forming a complete vehicle instrument screen, and then the automated production equipment drives the sub-clamp 2 to reset. In this embodiment, the automated equipment is a manipulator.

[0031] The main body fixture 1 is composed of an upper part and a lower part. The upper part of the main body fixture 1 is detachably arranged on the upper end surface of the lower part of the main body fixture 1 .

[0032] The upper half of the main body fixture 1 includes an upper base plate 111 and a support block 112, a positioning block 113 and a positioning pin 114 fixedly arranged on the upper end surface of the upper base plate 111. The arrangement positions of the support block 112, the positioning block 113 and the positioning pin 114 on the upper end surface of the upper base plate 111 match and correspond to the positioning positions of the bottom shell half assembly of the vehicle instrument screen on the main body fixture 1; the upper end surface of the upper base plate 111 is also fixedly provided with a coding chip mounting block 115 for assisting in setting a coding chip on the bottom shell half assembly of the vehicle instrument screen.

[0033] Two connecting through holes are respectively provided on both sides of the upper substrate 111 , and a plurality of quick-change positioning pin through holes are provided at the corners of the upper substrate 111 .

[0034] The lower half of the main body fixture 1 includes a lower base plate 121 and a locking mechanism 122 fixedly arranged on both sides of the lower base plate 121; the lower base plate 121 is also provided with an unlocking mechanism 123, a reset spring 124 and a linear guide rail 127. The unlocking mechanism 123 and the reset spring 124 are arranged opposite to each other, and transmission is realized between the two through a connecting plate 125. The unlocking mechanism 123 is connected with the locking mechanism 122 in transmission.

[0035] The upper end surface of the lower substrate 121 is also fixedly provided with a plurality of quick-change positioning pins 126, and the plurality of quick-change positioning pins 126 match the plurality of quick-change positioning pin through holes, and each of the quick-change positioning pins 126 corresponds to a quick-change positioning pin through hole. Through the cooperation between the quick-change positioning pins 126 and the quick-change positioning pin through holes, the upper substrate 111 and the lower substrate 121 are connected.

[0036] When the upper substrate 111 and the lower substrate 121 are in a connected state, the quick-change positioning pin 126 passes through the quick-change positioning pin through hole, and the locking mechanism 122 passes through the connecting through hole as a whole and is exposed on the upper end surface of the upper substrate 111. The two locking mechanisms 122 cooperate with each other to jointly realize the locking and positioning of the bottom shell half assembly in the vehicle-mounted instrument screen.

[0037] The sub-clamp 2 includes a clamp substrate 21 and a glass support plate 22 embedded in the clamp substrate 21. The clamp substrate 21 is connected to an external automated production equipment and can be driven by it. The upper end surface of the clamp substrate 21 is also fixed with four equal-height blocks 23 for mechanical limiting in the vertical direction. The four equal-height blocks 23 are evenly distributed at the four corners of the upper end surface of the clamp substrate 21.

[0038] A locking block 24, a quick-change head 25 and two positioning bushings 28 are respectively disposed on both sides of the upper end surface of the fixture base plate 21. The locking block 24 cooperates with the quick-change head 25 to achieve locking and positioning of the glass screen in the vehicle-mounted instrument screen.

[0039] A plurality of seamless suction cups 26 are inlaid on the glass support plate 22, and a vacuum pressure-maintaining valve 27 is fixedly provided on the lower end surface of the clamp substrate 21. The plurality of seamless suction cups 26 are respectively connected to the vacuum pressure-maintaining valve 27 by pipelines; under the action of the vacuum pressure-maintaining valve 27, the plurality of seamless suction cups 26 cooperate together to complete the adsorption and clamping of the glass screen in the vehicle instrument screen.

[0040] When the dispensing process of the underbody semi-assembly on the main body fixture 1 is completed, the automated equipment will attach the sub-clamp 2 with the glass screen fixed to the main body fixture 1. The sub-clamp 2 uses its own four equal-height blocks to achieve mechanical limiting and always maintain the distance between the glass screen and the underbody semi-assembly. At the same time, the locking mechanism is used to maintain pressure so that the sealant can be stably cured to achieve a stable mounting effect.

[0041] In summary, the in-vehicle instrument screen laminating tooling provided by the present invention ensures the consistency of the entire mounting process and meets the precision requirements of the mounting operation by means of high-precision product positioning. Moreover, in the structure of the present invention, the locking and unlocking parts are exquisitely designed and have stable performance, so that the tooling can achieve a stable transition during the connection process between the previous and next processes, significantly improving the overall production efficiency of the enterprise.

[0042] At the same time, the structural setting of the present invention is flexible and has good compatibility, and can quickly change between multiple products of the same type. Among them, the sub-clamp also has a quick-change structure and is equipped with a gas-electric module. The tooling as a whole can quickly connect to external automated production equipment and realize free switching between different processes, thereby further enriching the application scenarios of the present invention.

[0043] In addition, the overall structure of the present invention is compact, which can not only adapt well to the narrow operating space in various types of automated production equipment and automated production lines, but also reserve space for the layout of other equipment, further optimizing the layout of automated production equipment and automated production lines in processing enterprises, and ensuring the overall production efficiency of the enterprise.

[0044] The present invention also provides a reference for other related issues in the same field, and can be expanded and extended based on this, and applied to other technical solutions for bonding tooling, and has a very broad application prospect.

The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementation methods that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
