Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of automobile calibration methods, and in particular relates to a calibration method for vehicle door sinking. Background Art

[0002] Modern cars are updated and iterated quickly, with short development cycles and low fault tolerance. The current door sinking verification can only be achieved through finite element analysis, which requires professional technicians who have mastered CAE analysis. General structural engineers are not competent for this task. In addition, the finite element analysis project node is late and the cycle is long, which generally takes 1 month. Once it is found that the door sinking does not meet the requirements, the adjustment workload is large and may also damage the shape.

[0003] In summary, the existing door sinking verification method is highly professional and inefficient, and once the verification is inaccurate, it will seriously affect the subsequent work. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to overcome the above problems, the present invention provides a method for checking the sinking of a vehicle door. The method is applied in the data production stage and can be completed without the need for a structural engineer with finite element analysis capabilities. It has high efficiency and a short cycle.

[0005] A method for checking the sinking of a vehicle door, comprising the following contents:

[0006] Step 1, translate the door hinge axis L1 toward the outside of the vehicle by a distance D1 to obtain the hinge axis L2 under the limit deviation;

[0007] Step 2, rotating the door assembly outward around the hinge axis L2 under the limit deviation, rotating the door lock engagement point P1 to the separation point P2, so that the distance between the door lock engagement point P1 and the separation point P2 is D2;

[0008] Step 3, rotate the door assembly clockwise around the upper and lower hinge center points P4, and rotate the upper corner point P5 of the door assembly to point P6, so that the distance between the upper corner points P5 and P6 of the door assembly reaches 3 mm;

[0009] Step 4, translate the door assembly downward so that point P6 moves to point P7, and the translation amount is the Z-axis assembly tolerance D4;

[0010] Step 5, translate the door assembly backward so that point P7 moves to point P8. The translation amount is the X-axis assembly tolerance D5. This position is the final state of the door sinking.

[0011] Step 6: Measure the gap between the door assembly and each surrounding part. The gap between each part must be ≥ 0.3mm.

[0012] In step 1, D1=2 mm.

[0013] In step 2, D2=21.5 mm.

[0014] In the step 4, D4=1 mm.

[0015] In step 5, D5=1 mm.

[0016] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0017] The verification method of the present invention is based on a large amount of test and measurement data, and feeds back the actual working conditions into the verification process and parameters, so that structural engineers can verify the door sinking in the early data production stage, determine the maximum door sinking position based on the test data and the actual working conditions, and determine the door sinking amount based on the test data and the installation tolerance; finally, based on the door sinking position and sinking amount, verify whether the door and surrounding parts meet the design requirements; generally, it only takes 1 hour to complete the door sinking verification, which not only greatly improves work efficiency, but also can find and correct problems in advance, reduce workload, and maintain the shape to the maximum extent.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] A method for checking the sinking of a vehicle door, comprising the following contents:

[0030] Step 1, translate the door hinge axis L1 toward the outside of the vehicle by a distance D1 to obtain the hinge axis L2 under the limit deviation;

[0031] Step 2, rotating the door assembly toward the outside of the vehicle around the lower limit deviation hinge axis L2, rotating the door lock engagement point P1 to the separation point P2, so that the distance between the door lock engagement point P1 and the separation point P2 is D2;

[0032] Step 3, rotate the door assembly clockwise around the upper and lower hinge center points P4, and rotate the upper corner point P5 of the door assembly to point P6, so that the distance between the upper corner points P5 and P6 of the door assembly reaches 3 mm;

[0033] Step 4, translate the door assembly downward so that point P6 moves to point P7, and the translation amount is the Z-axis assembly tolerance D4;

[0034] Step 5, translate the door assembly backward so that point P7 moves to point P8. The translation amount is the X-axis assembly tolerance D5. This position is the final state of the door sinking.

[0035] Step 6: Measure the gap between the door assembly and each surrounding part. The gap between each part must be ≥ 0.3mm.

[0036] In step 1, D1=2 mm.

[0037] In step 2, D2=21.5 mm.

[0038] In the step 4, D4=1 mm.

[0039] In step 5, D5=1 mm.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] Input conditions (see Figure 1 ): door hinge axis L1, door lock engagement point P1, door assembly;

[0042] Step 1: Determine the maximum door sinking position (see Figure 2 and Figure 3 ),

[0043] Step 1.1, translate the door hinge axis L1 toward the outside of the vehicle by a distance D1 (preferably D1=2 mm) to obtain the hinge axis L2 under the limit deviation;

[0044] Step 1.2, rotate the door assembly to the outside of the vehicle around the hinge axis L2 under the limit deviation, rotate the door lock engagement point P1 to the separation point P2, the rotation amount (the distance between the door lock engagement point P1 and the separation point P2) is the chord length D2 between P1 and P2 (preferably D2 = 21.5mm), and this position is the maximum door sinking position; the specific reason is that when the lock tongue S1 and the lock pin S3 in the closed state are engaged, the door lock has a supporting effect on the door, only when the door is opened and the lock tongue S1 rotates around the rotation center P3 to the lock tongue S2 at the moment of separation, the lock tongue S2 and the lock pin S4 are separated at point P2, and the door lock completely loses its supporting effect. At this position, the door assembly sinks the most.

[0045] Step 2 Determine the door drop (see Figure 4 and Figure 5 )

[0046] Step 2.1, rotate the door assembly clockwise around the upper and lower hinge center points P4 (in the direction of door sinking), so that the upper corner point P5 of the door assembly rotates to point P6, and the rotation amount is the chord length D3 between P5 and P6 (preferably D3 = 3mm);

[0047] Step 2.2, continue to translate the door assembly downward so that point P6 moves to point P7, and the translation amount is the Z-axis assembly tolerance D4 (preferably D4=1 mm);

[0048] Step 2.3, finally, translate the door assembly backward so that point P7 moves to point P8, and the translation amount is the X-axis assembly tolerance D5 (preferably D5 = 1 mm). This position is the final state of the door sinking;

[0049] Step 3: Check the clearance between the door assembly and the surrounding area

[0050] Measure the gap D between the door assembly and surrounding parts at the maximum door sinking position determined in step 1 and the position determined in 3.3. The gap must meet the design requirements, preferably D ≥ 0.3 mm.
