Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of automobile parts detection, in particular to a tool for automobile parts detection. Background Art
[0002] The car muffler is one of the most common parts in a car. Its main function is to reduce the exhaust noise generated when the engine is running, and it can also help maintain the performance and efficiency of the engine. However, if there is a leak in the muffler, it may cause the leakage of exhaust gas that has not been fully treated, resulting in substandard emissions and a greatly reduced noise reduction effect. Therefore, it is very important to conduct air tightness testing on the car muffler during production. The car muffler is mainly composed of three parts: the exhaust pipe, the main muffler and the tail pipe. In the process of air tightness testing of the car muffler, the car muffler must first be fixed on a special test device, and then compressed air or other inert gas is filled into the muffler. Then, a detection instrument or sensor is used to detect the pressure changes inside the muffler, and the air tightness of the muffler is evaluated based on the pressure change trend and specific standards.
[0003] However, there are still the following problems in the process of fixing the automobile muffler before the air tightness test: (1) The clamping force of the commonly used clamping device is insufficient in the process of fixing the automobile muffler, and it is difficult to ensure that the automobile muffler is clamped and fixed in a centered and stable state. The automobile muffler is subjected to unbalanced clamping force, resulting in poor stability during the air tightness test, which affects the accuracy of the test results.
[0004] (2) Usually, independently controlled components are used to fix the tail pipe, main muffler and exhaust pipe of the automobile muffler. The stability between different components is poor, and they are prone to loosening or movement, resulting in low fixing efficiency. At the same time, the single-stage clamping force is difficult to ensure the stability of the automobile muffler during the air tightness test.
[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the problems existing in the process of fixing the automobile muffler before the air tightness test, the present invention provides a tool for automobile parts testing. Summary of the invention

[0032] See also Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 An L-shaped rod 141 is installed between the lower ends of the front and rear circular plugging cylinders 111, and an L-shaped rod 141 is also installed at the lower end of the arc-shaped abutment plate 137.

A square is installed on the side of the vertical section of the L-shaped support plate 142 close to the L-shaped rod 141 Frame 144, a limiting rod 145 is rotatably installed in the middle of the upper end of the horizontal section of the L-shaped support plate 142 on the left, and a limiting rod 145 symmetrically installed front and rearward is rotatably installed on the upper end of the horizontal section of the L-shaped support plate 142 on the right. The upper end of the limiting rod 145 is rotatably connected to a connecting frame fixedly connected to the horizontal section of the L-shaped support plate 142. An auxiliary rod 146 is arranged on the side of the limiting rod 145 away from the corresponding L-shaped support plate 142. The auxiliary rod 146 is rotatably installed between the upper and lower mounting blocks 147. The upper and lower mounting blocks 147 are respectively connected to the connecting frame and the horizontal section of the L-shaped support plate 142 with an adjusting spring 148.
[0033] When working: First, place the automobile muffler to be tested for air tightness on the fixing table 1 (the structure of the automobile muffler is as follows Figure 8As shown), the front and rear tail pipes at the left end of the automobile muffler are placed in the front and rear arc grooves on the left L-shaped support plate 142, and the transverse section of the right end exhaust pipe is placed in the arc groove on the right L-shaped support plate 142 (see Figure 2 ), the L-shaped supporting plates 142 on the left and right sides can be used to support the automobile muffler to be placed horizontally above the fixed platform 1, so as to clamp the automobile muffler smoothly and stably later. In addition, in the process of placing the automobile muffler between the left and right L-shaped supporting plates 142, it is necessary to pass the left limiting rod 145 between the front and rear tail pipes at the left end of the automobile muffler, and at the same time, pass the transverse connecting section of the exhaust pipe and the main muffler between the front and rear limiting rods 145 on the right. With the cooperation of the limiting rods 145 on the left and right sides and the tail pipe and exhaust pipe of the automobile muffler, the limiting rods 145 can limit the position of the automobile muffler in the front and rear direction to ensure that the automobile muffler can be placed above the fixed platform 1 in a front-to-back centered state.
[0034] Then, the push plates 138 can be pushed toward the direction of the automobile muffler by the electric push rods 140 on the left and right sides at the same time. The left push plate 138 drives the front and rear circular plugging cylinders 111 to move to the right through the pressure spring 139, and the right push plate 138 drives the movable plate 133 to move to the left through the pressure spring 139. In this process, the plug posts 112 inside the front and rear circular plugging cylinders 111 are simultaneously inserted into the corresponding tail pipes of the automobile muffler until the inner wall of the left end of the circular plugging cylinder 111 is pressed against the tail pipe of the automobile muffler. At the same time, the movable plate 133 drives the circular sleeve 131 to gradually approach the detection air inlet of the exhaust pipe of the automobile muffler, and the plug post 112 inside the circular sleeve 131 is inserted into the tail pipe of the automobile muffler. 32 is gradually inserted into the detection air inlet of the exhaust pipe and finally pressed against the inner wall of the right end of the circular sleeve 131. During the movement, the movable plate 133 gradually squeezes the telescopic spring 136 and drives the pushing rod 135 to move to the left along the vertical plate 134 synchronously. Through the cooperation among the pushing rod 135, the telescopic spring 136 and the vertical plate 134, not only the rightward movement of the movable plate 133 is guided and supported, thereby improving the stability of the movable plate 133, but also the resistance encountered when the circular sleeve 131 is pressed against the detection air inlet of the exhaust pipe can be simulated, so as to balance the pressure applied by the movable plate 133 on the exhaust pipe, thereby ensuring that the exhaust pipe is subjected to a stable and uniform pressing force, thereby improving the stability of the exhaust pipe.
[0035] Secondly, the movable plate 133 also drives the arc-shaped abutment plate 137 to gradually press against the longitudinal section of the automobile muffler exhaust pipe through the mounting rod. Firstly, it assists the circular sleeve 131 to fix the exhaust pipe horizontally, further increasing the stability of the automobile muffler exhaust pipe. Secondly, it balances the force on the exhaust pipe to avoid deformation caused by force on one end of the exhaust pipe. In addition, the circular plugging cylinder 111 and the circular sleeve 131 respectively use sealing rings to press against the detection air inlet of the tail pipe and the exhaust pipe, which is beneficial to improving the sealing of the tail pipe and the exhaust pipe while ensuring the stability of the abutment force, and preventing the automobile muffler tail pipe or exhaust pipe from leaking during the airtightness detection process and affecting the overall airtightness detection. To ensure the accuracy of the test results, the air intake pipe of the existing air-tightness equipment can be inserted into the circular through holes of the circular sleeve 131 and the insertion rod 132, and then the air source can be injected into the automobile muffler from the air intake pipe through the existing air-tightness testing equipment, and the pressure change inside the automobile muffler can be monitored by the pressure sensor on the air-tightness testing equipment. During the test, observe whether the pressure is stable. If the pressure is stable, it means that the air-tightness performance is good. If the pressure drops or is unstable, there may be a leak. In addition, after keeping the air source injected for a period of time, turn off the air source and record the pressure holding time. The automobile muffler with good air-tightness performance can maintain stable pressure within the specified time.
[0036] Before the tail pipe and the exhaust pipe are tightly fixed, the circular plugging tube 111 and the arc-shaped abutment plate 137 drive the corresponding L-shaped rod 141 to move synchronously toward each other in advance. During this process, the horizontal section of the L-shaped rod 141 is gradually inserted into the square frame 144 and presses the vertical section of the L-shaped support plate 142. The square frame 144 can guide the movement of the L-shaped rod 141, so that the L-shaped support plate 142 drives the limiting rod 145 to move along the sliding groove 143 toward the direction of the automobile muffler. The auxiliary rod 146 moves synchronously with the L-shaped support plate 142 and the limiting rod 145 through the upper and lower mounting blocks 147 and the adjusting spring 148 until the left and right ends of the main muffler of the automobile are simultaneously pressed by the corresponding auxiliary rods 146. Under the action of the adjusting spring 148, the auxiliary rods 146 on the left and right sides can be automatically adjusted according to the actual state of the automobile muffler. It is adapted to press against the two ends of the main muffler to adjust the entire automobile muffler to a left-right centered state, so that the tail pipe, exhaust pipe and main muffler of the automobile muffler can be better and firmly clamped. During this process, the limiting rod 145 and the auxiliary rod 146 are in rotational contact with the corresponding tail pipe and exhaust pipe to reduce the friction between the limiting rod 145, the auxiliary rod 146 and the tail pipe and exhaust pipe. In addition, in the process of centering the entire automobile muffler, the tail pipe fixing assembly 11 and the exhaust pipe fixing assembly 13 simultaneously complete the fixation of the tail pipe and the exhaust pipe. After the subsequent L-shaped rod 141 moves away from the L-shaped support plate 142, the L-shaped support plate 142, the limiting rod 145 and the auxiliary rod 146 are all in an automatic sliding state and the pressing force on the main muffler of the automobile muffler is released, so that the automobile muffler can be smoothly removed after the air tightness test.
[0037] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The main muffler fixing assembly 12 includes an arc-shaped clamping plate 121 symmetrically arranged at the upper end of the fixing platform 1, and a driving assembly for driving the front and rear arc-shaped clamping plates 121 to move synchronously in the opposite direction is provided at the lower end of the fixing platform 1. A tilting rod 122 evenly arranged left and right and tilted downward is installed at the lower end of the front side of the arc-shaped clamping plate 121 located at the rear side, and a tilting rod 122 evenly arranged left and right and tilted downward is also installed at the lower end of the rear side of the arc-shaped clamping plate 121 located at the front side. The tilting rod 122 located at the front side and the tilting rod 122 located at the rear side are cross-distributed left and right, and the driving assembly includes a control plate 123 installed at the lower ends of the front and rear arc-shaped clamping plates 121. A rectangular through groove 124 for the control plate 123 to slide forward and backward is opened on the fixing platform 1, and a longitudinal rack 125 slidably connected to the inner wall of the rectangular through groove 124 is installed at the lower right end of the control plate 123 located at the rear side and the lower left end of the control plate 123 located at the front side, and a driven gear 126 is meshed between the left and right longitudinal racks 125.
[0038] See also Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The locking assembly includes a fixed plate 151 installed at the lower end of the fixed platform 1, and a sliding groove is opened at the upper end of the fixed plate 151. Two square plates 152 distributed on the left and right and fixedly connected to the fixed sections of the two electric push rods 140 are slidably installed in the sliding groove. A moving assembly for controlling the synchronous movement of the left and right square plates 152 along the sliding groove is arranged below the driving assembly. A locking member is arranged between the moving assembly and the driving assembly. The moving assembly includes a transverse rack 153. The transverse rack 153 slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove is installed on the rear side of the left square plate 152 and the front side of the right square plate 152. A driving gear 154 is meshed between the front and rear transverse racks 153, and the lower end of the driving gear 154 is connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 155 installed on the fixed plate 151.
[0039] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 The locking member includes a connecting shaft 156 coaxially installed between the driven gear 126 and the driving gear 154, a circular plate 157 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the connecting shaft 156, the circular plate 157 is installed on the right end of the rectangular plate, and an automatic push rod 159 is connected between the left end of the rectangular plate and the fixed platform 1. The middle part of the lower end of the front and rear control plates 123 is provided with a square slot, and the front and rear ends of the rectangular plate are installed with a support plate 161. The circular plate 157 is located between the front and rear support plates 161, and the upper end of the support plate 161 is installed with a square block 162 that slides with the corresponding square slot.
[0040] During operation: the circular plate 157 in the initial state is located at the lower end of the connecting shaft 156. After the tail pipe of the automobile muffler is fixed to the exhaust pipe, the driving motor 155 can be used to drive the driving gear 154 to rotate, and the driven gear 126 can rotate synchronously through the connecting shaft 156 and drive the left and right longitudinal racks 125 to slide synchronously back and forth. The left and right longitudinal racks 125 drive the corresponding control plates 123 to slide synchronously along the inner wall of the rectangular through groove 124. Since the centering and stable limiting of the entire automobile muffler has been completed in advance, the control plate 123 drives the arc clamping plate 121 to move synchronously in the direction of the automobile muffler and finally press against the middle of the main muffler to ensure that the main muffler is subjected to a uniform and balanced clamping force, which is beneficial to the improvement of the overall stability of the automobile muffler. In the process of the front and rear arc clamping plates 121 approaching each other, the inclined rods 122 on the front and rear sides slide in contact and lock with each other to increase the relative stability between the front and rear arc clamping plates 121. In addition, rubber pads may be provided on the clamping surfaces of the arc-shaped clamping plate 121 and the arc-shaped abutting plate 137. The rubber pads can be used to increase the abutting friction force and prevent the main muffler and the exhaust pipe from being worn or deformed.
[0041] In the process of clamping and fixing the main muffler, the driving gear 154 always keeps rotating. As the driving gear 154 rotates, the front and rear transverse racks 153 drive the corresponding square plate 152 to move synchronously left and right along the sliding groove. The square plate 152 drives the corresponding electric push rod 140 to move synchronously in the direction of the automobile muffler. The electric push rod 140 squeezes the pressure spring 139 through the push plate 138 to drive the tail pipe fixing assembly 11 / exhaust pipe fixing assembly 13 to further move in the direction of the automobile muffler. Since the tail pipe fixing assembly 11 and the exhaust pipe fixing assembly 13 have already completed the tight fixation of the automobile muffler tail pipe and the exhaust pipe in advance, the tail pipe fixing assembly 11 and the exhaust pipe fixing assembly 13 are further locked and fixed to each other at this time, which increases the fixing strength of the tail pipe and the exhaust pipe, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the entire automobile muffler, and effectively preventing the tail pipe fixing assembly 11 and the exhaust pipe fixing assembly 13 from loosening or moving during the subsequent air tightness detection process.
[0042] When the main muffler assembly clamps the main muffler, the pressure spring 139 is in a fully compressed state, and then the rectangular plate and the circular plate 157 can be driven to move upward along the connecting shaft 156 through the automatic push rod 159, and the support plate 161 drives the square clamping block 162 to gradually insert into the square clamping groove at the lower end of the control plate 123. The clamped arc clamping plate 121 can be locked and limited by the cooperation of the square clamping block 162 and the square clamping groove, and the longitudinal rack 125 is also limited. Of course, the driven gear 126 and the driving gear 154 are also limited, so as to effectively prevent other external factors from interfering with the driving gear. The wheel 154 and the driven gear 126 rotate, resulting in unstable clamping of the tail pipe fixing assembly 11, the exhaust pipe fixing assembly 13 and the main muffler fixing assembly 12. With the cooperation of the driving assembly, the moving assembly and the locking piece, the tail pipe fixing assembly 11, the exhaust pipe fixing assembly 13 and the muffler fixing assembly are synchronously integrated and connected and locked, further increasing the overall reliability among the three, thereby improving the stability of the automobile muffler during air tightness testing.
