Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of detection equipment, in particular to a hole position detection device for a car safety airbag housing. Background Art

[0002] With the development of the automotive industry, the quality inspection of automotive airbags, as an important passive safety device, has become more and more stringent. Airbag housings usually require multiple precise hole positions and apertures to meet assembly and functional requirements. If the hole position or aperture size on the housing does not meet the tolerance requirements of the design drawings, it may cause the installation and function of the airbag to fail, seriously affecting the safety performance of the vehicle. Therefore, it is particularly important to perform efficient and accurate hole position and aperture inspection on the airbag housing.

[0003] Traditional hole position and aperture detection mainly rely on manual operation or single detection equipment. These methods have some defects: first, manual detection is inefficient and easily affected by human factors, resulting in a high error rate; second, some traditional detection equipment cannot detect hole position and aperture at the same time, and two detection processes need to be performed separately, which increases detection time and labor costs. In addition, traditional equipment is not accurate enough in judging the aperture tolerance range, which can easily lead to misjudgment of the detection results. Summary of the invention

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: Firstly, the present invention solves the problem of workpiece deviation that is easy to occur during the detection process by positioning the workpiece through the positioning column cooperating with the center hole of the workpiece; at the same time, the clamping mechanism drives the clamping plate through the cylinder to clamp the left and right sides of the workpiece, so that the workpiece remains stable and does not deviate during detection; the lifting mechanism can control the lifting and lowering of the positioning column, so that the workpiece can be smoothly discharged after positioning and detection are completed, thereby improving the flexibility and automation of operation.

[0013] Secondly, the hole position detection mechanism utilizes the second electric telescopic rod to drive the second lifting plate, and detects the acceptability of the hole position of the workpiece through multiple hole position detection pins; when the hole position detection pin can be inserted into the hole, the pressure signal detected by the second pressure sensor indicates that the hole position is qualified, which solves the problems of large error and low efficiency in traditional manual detection; if the hole position is unqualified, the hole position detection pin applies pressure to the second spring, and the second pressure sensor identifies the unqualified signal, realizing automated detection and real-time feedback.

[0014] In addition, the aperture detection mechanism drives the first lifting plate through the first electric telescopic rod, and drives the first aperture detection pin and the second aperture detection pin on the first guide plate to move downward; when the detection pin cannot pass through the hole on the workpiece, it means that the aperture is within the tolerance range, and the first spring transmits the detection pressure to the first pressure sensor to determine whether the aperture is qualified; this design avoids the risk of the workpiece aperture exceeding the tolerance range but not being discovered in time, and greatly improves the accuracy of detection.

[0015] The drive frame controls the left and right movement of the slide table through the support rod, guide rail and motor, realizing the rapid station conversion between hole position detection and aperture detection; this design avoids repeated handling and manual intervention of the workpiece between different detection steps, and improves the detection efficiency. At the same time, the design of the slider and the adjustment block ensures the smooth movement of the slide table, avoiding the impact of unstable sliding on the detection accuracy.

[0016] Finally, after the inspection is completed, the automatic discharge of the workpiece is realized through the discharge guide design of the guide plate, avoiding the tedious operation of manual pick-up and placement of the workpiece, and improving work efficiency. This design that integrates positioning, clamping, inspection and discharge not only improves the inspection accuracy and efficiency, but also reduces the difficulty of operation and labor costs.

[0017] In summary, the device effectively solves the problems of low efficiency, high error and much manual intervention in traditional detection methods through innovative structural design and multiple automated control methods, and provides an efficient and reliable solution for the detection of automobile airbag housings.

[0030] Working principle: When the hole position detection of the workpiece is carried out, the workpiece is placed on the positioning column 9 by using the hole in the center thereof to locate the position when placed. At this time, the clamping mechanisms 11 on the left and right sides are used to clamp the straight edges on the left and right sides of the workpiece to complete the alignment and positioning clamping of the workpiece. At this time, the hole position detection mechanism 7 is lowered to detect the hole positions of the remaining holes. After the hole position detection is completed, the driving frame 8 is used to drive the slide 6 to move to the right so that the aperture detection mechanism 5 enters the detection station. At this time, the aperture detection mechanism 5 descends to detect the aperture of the workpiece, thereby completing the double detection of the hole position and aperture of the workpiece. After the detection is completed, the clamping mechanism 11 is released, and the lifting mechanism 10 drives the positioning column 9 to descend and retract. At this time, the workpiece can be directly pushed out of the workbench 4 and the guide plate 3 can be used for material discharge and material guiding; When the hole position detection of the workpiece is performed, the second electric telescopic rod 71 drives the second lifting plate 72 to descend and drives the second guide plate 74 and the hole position detection pin 75 to descend. When the hole position of the workpiece is qualified, the hole position detection pin 75 can be inserted into the remaining holes. If the hole position is unqualified, the hole position detection pin 75 cannot be inserted into the corresponding hole. At this time, the hole position detection pin 75 that cannot be lowered applies pressure to the second spring 77, and the second spring 77 applies pressure to the second pressure sensor 73. The second pressure sensor 73 is used to detect the change in pressure to obtain hole position detection information. The outer diameter of the hole position detection pin 75 is slightly larger than the lower limit size of the hole diameter of the detected hole. When the hole position detection pin 75 can be inserted into the hole, it can be determined that the hole diameter is larger than the lower limit of the size tolerance of the hole required by the drawing, thereby determining that the hole diameter does not exceed the size tolerance range of the hole required by the drawing. When the aperture is detected, the first electric telescopic rod 51 drives the first lifting plate 52 to descend and drives the first guide plate 55 to descend. The descending first guide plate 55 drives the first aperture detection pin 56 and the second aperture detection pin 57 to descend. When the aperture of the workpiece is qualified, the first aperture detection pin 56 and the second aperture detection pin 57 cannot pass through the hole on the workpiece. At this time, the first aperture detection pin 56 and the second aperture detection pin 57 both apply pressure to the first spring 58, and the first spring 58 applies pressure to the first pressure sensor 53. If the first aperture detection pin 56 or the second aperture detection pin 57 passes through the hole of the workpiece, the corresponding first pressure sensor 53 cannot recognize the pressure signal, and the pressure signals of multiple first pressure sensors 53 are used to detect the aperture detection information. The outer diameters of the second aperture detection pin 57 and the first aperture detection pin 56 are slightly larger than the upper limit size of the aperture of the detected hole. When the first aperture detection pin 56 or the second aperture detection pin 57 can pass through the hole of the workpiece, it can be determined that the aperture of the detected hole exceeds the upper limit of the size tolerance of the hole required by the drawing. When the slide 6 is moved and adjusted, the motor 86 drives the screw rod 84 to rotate, and the rotating screw rod 84 drives the adjustment block 62 to drive the slide 6 to move, thereby completing the conversion between the hole position detection and the hole diameter detection of the workpiece.

[0031] Embodiment 2: Stability test of positioning column and cylinder clamping In order to verify the effectiveness of the positioning column combined with the cylinder clamping mechanism of the present invention in maintaining the stability of the workpiece, The following experiments were conducted: Experimental equipment and materials: 1. Positioning column model: LPZ-100 2. Cylinder model: QG-25, rated air pressure 0.8 MPa 3. Workpiece material: Aluminum alloy (model 6061-T6) 4. Test platform: XYZ-30 precision translation stage Experimental steps: 1. Put the aluminum alloy workpiece on the positioning column and use the cylinder of the clamping mechanism to clamp the left and right sides of the workpiece.

[0032] 2. Apply lateral vibrations of different amplitudes (frequencies of 5 Hz, 10 Hz, 15 Hz, 20 Hz, and 25 Hz) to the workbench to simulate the vibration environment that the workpiece may encounter during the inspection process.

[0033] 3. Use displacement sensors to measure the displacement of the workpiece during vibration.

[0034] Experimental data: displacement standard deviation (μm)

[0036] The experimental results show that with the increase of vibration frequency, the lateral displacement of the workpiece increases, but the overall displacement is kept within 2.5μm, which proves that the positioning column and cylinder clamping mechanism can effectively maintain the stability of the workpiece, thereby ensuring the detection accuracy.

[0037] Where A is the amplitude and ω is the angular frequency Formula: Displacement caused by vibration Δx=A*sin(ω)(2πf), t is time.

[0038] Example 3: Experiment on the automated detection accuracy of hole position detection mechanism In order to verify the automatic detection accuracy of the hole position detection mechanism in the present invention, the following experiments were designed: Experimental equipment and materials: 1. Second electric telescopic rod model: ESR-150 2. Hole detection pin material: high carbon steel, outer diameter accuracy ±0.01mm 3. Workpiece hole diameter: 10mm, tolerance ±0.1mm 4. Pressure sensor model: PTS-350, accuracy 0.01N Experimental steps: 1. Place the workpiece with a hole diameter of 10mm on the workbench and position it using the positioning column.

[0039] 2. Use the hole position detection mechanism to descend and detect whether the pin is inserted into the workpiece hole.

[0040] 3. Use a pressure sensor to detect pressure changes during the insertion process and record the pass status of the hole position detection.

[0041]

[0042] The experimental results show that when the hole diameter is within the tolerance range, the detection pin can be inserted smoothly and the pressure sensor reading is small (<0.2N); when the hole diameter exceeds the tolerance range, the detection pin cannot be inserted and the pressure increases significantly. This shows that the hole position detection mechanism can accurately identify whether the hole position is qualified. Formula: Pressure F=k*Δx Where k is the spring stiffness coefficient and Δx is the compression displacement of the spring. Example 4: Tolerance judgment experiment of the hole diameter detection mechanism In order to verify the accuracy of the aperture detection mechanism of the present invention in judging the aperture tolerance of the workpiece, the following experiments were conducted: Experimental equipment and materials: 1. The first electric telescopic pole model: ESR-120 2. Aperture detection pin specifications: ∅10.20mm, ∅10.25mm 3. Workpiece hole diameter: 10 mm, tolerance ±0.1mm 4. The first pressure sensor model: PTS-350, accuracy 0.01N Experimental steps: 1. Use the first electric telescopic rod to drive the aperture detection pin to descend and detect the aperture of the workpiece.

[0043] 2. When the test pin cannot pass through the workpiece hole, record the pressure sensor reading.

[0044] 3. Test workpieces within 5 different tolerance ranges.

[0045]

[0046] The experimental results show that when the hole diameter is within the tolerance range, the detection pin can pass smoothly; when the hole diameter exceeds the tolerance range, the pressure increases significantly and the detection cannot be passed. This shows that the aperture detection mechanism can effectively determine whether the workpiece hole diameter is qualified and has a high detection accuracy. Formula: Detection pressure P = F / A, where F is the force and A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the hole. Example 5: Mobile stability experiment of the drive frame and slide table In order to verify the stability of the cooperation between the drive frame and the slide table of the present invention in realizing the rapid conversion between hole position detection and hole diameter detection, the following experiments were conducted: Experimental equipment and materials: 1. Drive frame support rod model: SP-50 2. Slide table model: ST-200 3. Screw specification: ∅20 mm, pitch 5mm 4. Motor model: EM-500, rated speed 2000 rpm Experimental steps: 1. Install the slide on the drive frame and connect the motor through a screw.

[0047] 2. Drive the slide to move from the hole position detection station to the aperture detection station, and measure the time of each movement and the slide offset. 3. Repeat the movement experiment 5 times and record the relevant data.

[0048]

[0049] The experimental results show that the slide can move quickly and smoothly driven by the drive frame. The time of each movement is controlled within 2.1 seconds, and the offset is kept within 0.6μm, which proves that the movement process of the slide is stable and reliable.

[0050] Formula: Moving speed y = s / second, where s is the distance the slide moves and t is the time required for movement.

[0051] Example 5: Experiment on the automatic discharging efficiency of the guide plate In order to verify the automatic discharging efficiency of the guide plate in the present invention, the following experiment was conducted: Experimental equipment and materials: 1. Guide plate material: stainless steel (model 304) 2. Workpiece material: Aluminum alloy (model 6061-T6) 3. Workpiece weight: 2kg 4. Guide plate inclination: 30° Experimental steps: 1. After the test is completed, the positioning column is retracted through the lifting mechanism, and the workpiece is automatically discharged along the guide plate. 2. Test the discharge time of 5 groups of workpieces. Experimental data:

[0052] The experimental results show that the workpiece can be discharged smoothly under the action of the guide plate, and the discharge time is kept within 1.6 seconds, which proves that the automatic discharge design of the guide plate effectively improves the discharge efficiency.

[0053] Formula: Discharge speed y=d / t, where d is the length of the guide plate and t is the workpiece discharge time.
