Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automotive seat component assembly technology, and more specifically to an automotive seat component assembly device. Background Technology

[0002] Car seats play a crucial role in car design, primarily in terms of comfort, safety, and passenger protection, making them an indispensable component of automobiles.

[0003] Although the overall process of car seat production and assembly is precisely designed, due to the numerous steps involved, the seats are generally fixed to tooling, and the various parts of the seats, as well as the wiring harnesses, are assembled manually.

[0004] During assembly, accessories need to be installed on multiple parts of the seat, such as the sides of the backrest and the underside of the seat cushion, to meet the multi-functionality of the seat. The existing tooling can adjust the position of the seat so that it can be tilted and rotated. However, when rotating the seat after tilting it, the backrest is relatively high and the backrest sweeps a large space when rotating, which occupies a lot of space. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an assembly device for automotive seat components to overcome the aforementioned shortcomings in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: An assembly device for automotive seat parts includes a base and an assembly table. A rotating seat is rotatably mounted on the base, and a support rod is fixedly mounted on the assembly table. The support rod is rotatably connected to the rotating seat. A guide rod is fixedly installed on the rotating seat, a lifting frame is slidably installed on the guide rod, a limit plate is fixedly installed on the assembly table, a limit block is fixedly installed on the lifting frame, a limit groove is provided on the limit plate, and the limit block is slidably installed in the limit groove. Two slide rails are fixedly installed on the assembly table, and clamps are slidably installed on both slide rails. The clamps are used to hold the connection position of the seat cushion and the backrest. It also includes a retraction component, which allows the clamps to slide on the slide rails when the assembly table rotates, thereby reducing the space occupied by the backrest rotation and adjusting the position of the seat cushion.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a lifting block is fixedly provided on the lifting frame, a lifting groove is provided on the base, and the lifting block is slidably disposed in the lifting groove.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the lifting groove includes a horizontal section and two inclined sections, and the two inclined sections are respectively disposed at both ends of the horizontal section.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the shrinking assembly includes a second rotating shaft rotatably mounted on an assembly table, a rotating rod fixedly mounted on the second rotating shaft, a protrusion fixedly mounted on the rotating rod, a connecting rod fixedly mounted between the two clamps, a sliding groove mounted on the connecting rod, and the protrusion slidably mounted in the sliding groove.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a first rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the rotating seat, and a universal joint is provided between the first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a crossbar is fixedly provided on the rotating seat, a first pulley is rotatably provided on the crossbar, a second pulley is fixedly provided on the first rotating shaft, and a belt is provided for transmission between the first pulley and the second pulley.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a gear is fixedly provided on the first pulley, and a tooth groove is provided on the base, wherein the gear meshes with the tooth groove for transmission.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the two inclined portions are arranged symmetrically.

[0014] In the above technical solution, the automotive seat component assembly equipment provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects: When assembling the seat components, after the seat back components are assembled, the assembly platform tilts upwards as the seat rotates. This reduces the space swept by the seat back area during rotation. Furthermore, a retractable assembly allows the fixture to slide along the rails, further reducing the space swept by the seat back during rotation. This minimizes the area occupied by the seat during rotation and positions the seat cushion in front of the worker's work position with the bottom of the cushion facing the worker. This facilitates the installation of components at the bottom of the cushion, improving assembly efficiency and reducing the space occupied by seat adjustments during assembly. Additionally, the upward tilt of the seat along with the assembly platform during rotation prevents the seat back from colliding with objects on either side of the platform.

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this disclosure without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0021] Please refer to 1-9. An assembly device for automotive seat accessories includes a base 1 and an assembly table 2. A rotating seat 3 is rotatably mounted on the base 1. A support rod 22 is fixedly mounted on the assembly table 2, and the support rod 22 is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 3. A guide rod 35 is fixedly mounted on the rotating seat 3, and a lifting frame 6 is slidably mounted on the guide rod 35. A limiting plate 23 is fixedly mounted on the assembly table 2, and a limiting block 61 is fixedly mounted on the lifting frame 6. A limiting groove 24 is provided on the limiting plate 23, and the limiting block 61 is slidably mounted within the limiting groove 24. Two slide rails 21 are fixedly mounted on the assembly table 2, and clamps 25 are slidably mounted on both slide rails 21. The clamps 25 are used to clamp the connection position of the seat cushion 7 and the backrest 71. A retraction component is also included, which, when the assembly table 2 rotates, causes the clamps 25 to slide on the slide rails 21 to reduce the space occupied by the backrest 71 during rotation and adjust the position of the seat cushion 7. When assembling the accessories on the seat, the seat is fixed to the clamps 25, with the fixed position as shown in the image. Figure 7 As shown, the seat is then rotated by clamp 25 to lie flat, in the following orientation. Figure 8 As shown, the accessories in the seat back 71 area can be installed. After the accessories on the seat back 71 are installed, the assembly platform 2 is rotated. The assembly platform 2, the rotating seat 3, and the lifting frame 6 rotate simultaneously. During the rotation, the lifting frame 6 rotates and moves upward, pushing the assembly platform 2 to tilt through the limiting block 61. During this process, the limiting block 61 slides in the limiting groove 24. As the assembly platform 2 tilts, the seat back 71 rotates upward. The direction of rotation is as follows. Figure 8 The direction marked in the middle reduces the radius of rotation of the backrest 71 when the assembly table 2 and the seat rotate, preventing the backrest 71 from sweeping too widely and occupying too much workspace. Furthermore, by incorporating a retraction component, the clamp 25 slides as the assembly table 2 rotates, further reducing the workspace occupied by the seat during rotation. After the assembly table 2 rotates 180°, the retraction component ensures that the seat cushion 7 is positioned as shown in the image. Figure 9 The position shown aligns the bottom of the seat cushion 7 directly with the worker's work position, facilitating the assembly of the accessories at the bottom of the seat cushion 7. This greatly improves the worker's portability when installing seat accessories, increases efficiency, and avoids the problem of the seat taking up too much workspace during adjustment and rotation.

[0022] In this invention, the clamp 25 and the assembly table 2 mentioned are both existing technologies. The connection method between the clamp 25 and the seat, the operation of rotating the seat to lie flat, and the locking method of the assembly table 2 before and after rotation are all common knowledge and conventional technical means known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail.

[0023] Specifically, a lifting block 62 is fixedly installed on the lifting frame 6, and a lifting groove is provided on the base 1. The lifting block 62 is slidably installed in the lifting groove. The lifting groove includes a horizontal section 11 and two inclined sections 12, which are respectively located at both ends of the horizontal section 11 and are symmetrically arranged. When the lifting frame 6 rotates with the rotating seat 3, the lifting block 62 moves from the inclined section 12 of the lifting groove to the horizontal section 11, and under the action of the guide rod 35, the lifting block 62 rises, so that the assembly platform 2 tilts during rotation, reducing the area occupied by the backrest 71 when the seat rotates with the assembly platform 2. When the assembly platform 2 finishes rotating, the lifting block 62 moves into the inclined section 12 at the other end of the lifting groove, so that the lifting frame 6 descends, completing the rotation reset of the assembly platform 2 and the seat. This improves the portability of the seat during rotation adjustment. During rotation, the seat is adaptively tilted upward, reducing the sweep radius of the backrest 71 when the seat rotates, thus reducing the working space occupied when adjusting the seat assembly position.

[0024] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the retraction assembly includes a second rotating shaft 5 rotatably mounted on the assembly table 2. A rotating rod 51 is fixedly mounted on the second rotating shaft 5, and a protrusion 52 is fixedly mounted on the rotating rod 51. A connecting rod 26 is fixedly mounted between the two clamps 25, and a sliding groove 27 is provided on the connecting rod 26. The protrusion 52 is slidably mounted in the sliding groove 27. During the tilting and rotation of the seat, the second rotating shaft 5 and the rotating rod 51 rotate relative to the assembly table 2. During the rotation, the connecting rod 26, through the cooperation of the protrusion 52 and the sliding groove 27, causes the two clamps 25 to slide on the slide rail 21. During the sliding process, the seat back 71... The area is further reduced, so that the area occupied by the backrest 71 when the seat rotates is further reduced, improving the portability and safety of the seat during rotation within the work space; after the assembly table 2 completes its rotation, its rotation angle is 180°, and the rotation angle of the second rotating shaft 5 and the rotating rod 51 is one revolution, so that the rotating rod 51 faces the same position as before after the rotation, and the clamp 25 is still located in the worker's assembly position. At the same time, the bottom of the seat cushion 7 faces the worker, which is convenient for the worker to assemble the parts at the bottom of the seat cushion 7, improving the portability of the worker in assembling the parts, thereby improving the assembly quality of the seat parts.

[0025] Furthermore, a first rotating shaft 4 is rotatably mounted on the rotating seat 3, and a universal joint 53 is provided between the first rotating shaft 4 and the second rotating shaft 5. During the rotation and tilting of the assembly table 2, the universal joint 53 between the first rotating shaft 4 and the second rotating shaft 5 allows the second rotating shaft 5 to rotate as the assembly table 2 tilts. This rotation, in turn, causes the rotating rod 51 to rotate, allowing the connecting rod 26 to slide along with the clamp 25 and the seat. After the assembly table 2 rotates 180°, the seat cushion 7 slides in front of the worker's workstation, preventing the worker from having to cross the assembly table 2 to assemble the parts at the bottom of the seat cushion 7. In this embodiment, the sliding of the clamp 25 and the tilting and rotation of the assembly table 2 are synchronized, which not only improves the efficiency of the seat parts assembly process but also enhances the ease of operation and safety of the worker when assembling the parts at the bottom of the seat cushion 7.

[0026] Furthermore, a crossbar 31 is fixedly mounted on the rotating base 3, and a first pulley 33 is rotatably mounted on the crossbar 31. A second pulley 41 is fixedly mounted on the first rotating shaft 4. A belt 34 is used for transmission between the first pulley 33 and the second pulley 41. A gear 32 is fixedly mounted on the first pulley 33, and a toothed groove 13 is provided on the base 1. The gear 32 meshes with the toothed groove 13 for transmission. During the rotation of the assembly platform 2 and the rotating base 3, the base 1 remains stationary. When the crossbar 31 drives the gear 32 and the first pulley 33 to rotate, the transmission between the gear 32 and the toothed groove 13... Under the action of the gear 32, the first pulley 33 rotates, and through the transmission of the belt 34 and the second pulley 41, the first rotating shaft 4 rotates, completing the operation of the fixture 25 carrying the seat sliding on the slide rail 21. After the assembly table 2 and the rotating seat 3 rotate 180°, the gear 32, under the action of the tooth groove 13, drives the second rotating shaft 5 and the rotating rod 51 to rotate one revolution. After the assembly table 2 finishes rotating, the seat cushion 7 is located in front of the worker's operating position, and the bottom of the seat cushion 7 faces the worker's position, further improving the worker's operating portability.

[0027] Working principle: When assembling the accessories on the seat, the clamp 25 fixes the corner connecting the seat cushion 7 and the backrest 71. When assembling accessories onto the backrest 71, the clamp 25 is rotated to tilt the seat. At this time, the backrest 71 is on a flat surface and extends out of the assembly platform 2, facilitating the installation of accessories on the backrest 71. When installing accessories located under the seat cushion 7, the assembly platform 2 is rotated. The assembly platform 2 and the rotating seat 3 rotate synchronously. During the rotation, the lifting block 62 cooperates with the lifting groove, and the lifting block 62 moves from the inclined part of the lifting groove. 12 moves to the horizontal section 11, causing the lifting frame 6 to slide upwards as it rotates with the rotating seat 3. During this sliding process, the assembly platform 2 and the support rod 22 rotate relative to the rotating seat 3 through the cooperation of the limiting block 61 and the limiting groove 24. That is, the assembly platform 2 tilts during rotation. At this time, the seat tilts along with the assembly platform 2, and during the tilting process, the extended part of the backrest 71 retracts, reducing the area occupied by the backrest 71 during rotation. Furthermore, during the rotation of the assembly platform 2, the rotating seat 3... The rotation of the crossbar 31 causes the gear 32 to rotate in the opposite direction under the action of the tooth groove 13. Through the transmission of the first pulley 33, belt 34 and second pulley 41, the first rotating shaft 4 drives the second rotating shaft 5 to rotate through the universal joint 53. This causes the rotating rod 51 to rotate relative to the assembly table 2. Under the cooperation of the protrusion 52 and the sliding groove 27, the connecting rod 26 is driven to make the two clamps 25 slide. During the sliding process, the part of the backrest 71 that extends out of the assembly table 2 is further retracted to prevent the extended part of the backrest 71 from occupying space when rotating. The assembly table 2 is relatively large and may collide with other items in the workspace. After the assembly table 2 rotates 180°, the lifting block 62 moves from the horizontal part 11 of the lifting groove to the inclined part 12 at the other end, and the lifting frame 6 descends to reset the assembly table 2. At this time, under the action of the gear 32 and the tooth groove 13, the gear 32 drives the second rotating shaft 5 to rotate one revolution. At this time, the direction of the rotating rod 51 remains unchanged, and the 180° rotation of the assembly table 2 makes the bottom of the seat cushion 7 face the position of the worker, which is convenient for assembling the accessories at the bottom of the seat cushion 7.

[0028] The foregoing has only described certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the foregoing drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
