[0015] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

[0016] A supercharger bearing seat installation tool is used to install the bearing seat into the housing, such as Figure 1 Figure 2 As shown, it includes a base 1, a fixing plate 4, a pushing plate 5, a clamping mechanism 6 and a bracket 11; a moving device 2 is provided at the bottom of the base 1, and the moving device 2 is a universal wheel structure; The fixing plate 4 is mounted on the upper surface of the base 1 through the lifting device 3; The clamping mechanism 6 is installed on the fixed plate 4 through the push plate 5, and the clamping mechanism 6 is used to clamp the bearing seat; The housing is mounted on a bracket 11, and a guide tube 7 is provided on the circumferential outer surface of the housing. The circumferential inner surface of the guide tube 7 is provided with a distance sensor 8 for locating the position of the bearing seat; The distance sensor 8 is connected to the controller.

[0017] Preferably, the shell is also provided with a pushing mechanism 10 for pushing the guide tube 7 to move; the pushing mechanism includes but is not limited to a cylinder, which is a device that can drive the guide tube 7 to move; when the bearing seat is sent into the shell, the guide tube 7 is initially exposed at the front end of the shell, and after the bearing seat partially enters the shell, the guide tube 7 starts to move backward and will not block the movement of the base 1 toward the shell.

[0018] Preferably, the number of the distance sensors 8 is at least 3 and they are evenly arranged in the circumferential direction.

[0019] Preferably, a baffle 12 is provided on both sides of the bracket 11, and a clamping cylinder 13 is provided on the inner side of each baffle 12. The two clamping cylinders 13 cooperate to clamp and fix the base 1. When in use, the base 1 is pushed toward one end of the shell so that the base 1 reaches between the two baffles 12, and then the clamping cylinder 13 inside the two baffles 12 is extended to clamp the base 1. When clamping the base 1, the base 1 will move toward the middle position of the two baffles 12 to achieve positioning.

[0020] Preferably, a motor screw moving mechanism is provided between the pushing plate 5 and the fixed plate 4 to realize the movement of the pushing plate 5 relative to the fixed plate 4, thereby realizing the movement of the bearing seat.

[0021] The fixed plate 4 is equipped with a signal receiving device 14, the controller is provided with a signal sending device, and the fixed plate 4 is also provided with a processing device for processing the received signal, which can also control the movement of the lifting device 3 so that the center of the bearing seat coincides with the center of the shell.

[0022] When in use, the base 1 is moved close to the shell so that one end of the bearing seat is inserted into the guide tube 7. The deviation degree of the bearing seat is detected by the distance sensor 8. After the horizontal position of the base 1 is adjusted according to the detected deviation degree, the vertical position of the bearing seat is adjusted by the lifting device 3 so that the center of the bearing seat coincides with the center of the shell, and then the bearing seat is sent into the shell by the push plate 5.

[0023] The tool is a mechanical device specially designed for the installation of the bearing seat of the split bearing body of the turbocharger, and is mainly composed of a mobile base 1, a lifting device 3, a pushing mechanism 10, a guide structure, a fixing plate 4, a clamping mechanism 6 and a pushing mechanism. Through the cooperation of the mobile base 1 and the lifting device 3, the bearing seat and the guide structure can be accurately docked; through the cooperation of the distance sensor 8, the position of the bearing seat deviating from the housing can be monitored in real time, and the horizontal position of the base 1 can be automatically adjusted to achieve the best installation state; through the push of the pushing mechanism 10, the bearing seat can be smoothly pushed into the housing to complete the installation of the bearing seat.

[0024] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
