[0002] Generally, the front bumper wire harness assembly is installed on the front bumper assembly by the wire harness clip, and the clip structure is generally designed on the back of the non-outer surface of the front bumper assembly, but sometimes the clip structure has to be designed on the back of the outer surface due to the structure of the front bumper. The prior art generally directly designs the clip structure on the back of the outer surface or increases a plurality of wire harness supports for wire harness clamping. The disadvantage of this installation method is that directly designing the long clip on the outer surface will cause injection molding defects, and the outer surface will be concave and cause shrinkage. In addition, increasing wire harness supports at different positions will increase the cost, and since the supports need to be positioned with the skin, the positioning clip on the skin will also cause shrinkage risk and product molding problems.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The application will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 A universal front protection flexible wire harness support welding tool design aims to realize the stable installation of the wire harness support 1 on the automobile skin through precise structure arrangement and efficient welding technology. The wire harness support 1 is composed of a connecting part 2 connected with the skin and a wire harness clamping rib 3 vertically fixed on the connecting part 2. This welding tool includes a delicately designed tool holder 4 and a matching welding head assembly 5.

[0025] The core component of the tool holder 4 is a cross plate 6, both ends of which are firmly installed with two positioning plates 7. One side of each positioning plate 7 is provided with a wire harness clamping rib installation groove 8 specially used for accommodating the wire harness clamping rib 3, and suction cups 9 are equipped on the four corners of the same side of the positioning plate 7 where the wire harness clamping rib installation groove 8 is located, to adsorb and fix the connecting part 2. This design of integrating the two positioning plates 7 through the cross plate 6 not only simplifies the equipment structure, but also significantly improves the assembly efficiency.

[0026] The welding head assembly 5 includes a T-shaped connecting rod 10, both ends of which are integrally formed with U-shaped welding parts 11, and each end of the U-shaped welding part 11 is provided with a welding surface 12. The positioning plate 7 is specially designed with a positioning groove 13 matched with the U-shaped welding part 11, which ensures the accurate positioning during welding. By integrating the two U-shaped welding parts 11 into the T-shaped connecting rod 10, a more compact and efficient welding solution is realized, which further simplifies the welding equipment and improves the speed and quality of welding operation.

[0027] In order to enhance the welding effect, the welding surface 12 is uniformly distributed with cylindrical protrusions 14, which can provide better contact area and fusion strength. In addition, the entire tool holder 4 and welding head assembly 5 adopt a symmetrical design concept from top to bottom and left to right, which helps to reduce production cost while ensuring the stability and consistency of operation.

[0028] The connecting part 2 has a standard wall thickness of 1.5 mm, which takes into account the flexibility and sufficient structural strength, and is suitable for the assembly requirements of large curvature surface and meets the specific requirements of wall thickness for welding process. The wire harness clamping rib 3 follows the industry standard design, which ensures good wire harness management function.

[0029] In consideration of the installation convenience, a rounded corner 15 is arranged at the entrance of the wire harness clamping rib mounting slot 8, so that the installation of the wire harness support 1 is more smooth. In addition, the tool holder 4 further comprises a vertical plate 16 vertically arranged at one side of the middle part of the horizontal plate 6, and the two together form a firm T-shaped structure, which enhances the stability of the whole.

[0030] It is worth noting that the U-shaped welding part 11 is made of titanium alloy material, which is known for its excellent heat resistance and mechanical properties, ensuring high quality and long-term reliability of the welding point.

[0031] The specific assembly process is as follows: first, place the skin on the welding tool tire membrane, the welding tool is designed to be rotatable, and the initial state is as shown in Figure 7 , then place the wire harness support 1 on the profiling tool and suck it with the suction cup 9, then rotate the tool, and then weld.

[0032] The profiling tool has a positioning gap of 0.2mm designed by the wire harness clamping rib, because the shape of the wire harness clamping rib 3 determines that the wire harness support 1 can only be assembled in one direction, and because the connecting part 2 is a self-symmetrical structure, there is no need for error prevention, and because the skin is fixed on the tool tire membrane, the relative position of the wire harness support 1 and the skin is uniquely determined, which plays the role of tool positioning and error prevention; The four suction cups 9 suck the wire harness support 1 to prevent the support from falling during tool rotation. In order to make the support size reach the limit while meeting the pulling force requirement after welding, the welding head (U-shaped welding part 11) is designed in the tool hollow avoidance place, the welding head (U-shaped welding part 11) size 20mm*10mm just meets the pulling force requirement after welding, the diameter 10mm suction cup 9 is also the smallest size that can suck the connecting part 2, the minimum gap between the welding head (U-shaped welding part 11) and the tool holder 4 is 1mm, which prevents the suction cup 9 from leaking and leaves a 1mm gap between the suction cup 9 and the edge of the connecting part 2, so the minimum size of the support is 1+10+1+20+1+10+1=44mm, so 44*44mm is the limit size of the connecting part 2.

[0033] In addition, as shown in Figure 8 , after the welding of the wire harness support 1 is completed, two actions are needed to exit, the first step is to translate along the wire harness support 1 assembly direction, that is, the normal direction of the large face of the wire harness support 1, and then the second step is to rotate out when the tool is completely separated from the wire harness clamping rib 3, then the product is taken out, if there is no translation action and directly rotates, the tool will interfere with the wire harness clamping rib and cannot be taken out.

[0034] The above merely illustrates the embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process conversion, or direct or indirect application in other related technical fields, which is made according to the content of the present application, shall be included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
