Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mechanical tooling, and particularly relates to a base installation tooling for a thermostat. Background Art

[0002] The base structure of the thermostat is as Figure 1 shown, and includes a bottom plate, side walls protruding upward from the four sides of the bottom plate, and mounting lugs protruding outward from the middle parts of the left and right sides of the bottom plate. Threaded holes are provided on the mounting lugs, which facilitates fixing the base to the housing of the device through bolts.

[0003] When assembling the existing thermostat, components such as a base, a contact, a shrapnel, a thermometer, and an upper cover need to be assembled into the base. Since there are many small components and the processes are cumbersome, if the base is prone to shaking during assembly, it will lead to low installation efficiency and poor installation stability. Therefore, a base installation tooling for a thermostat is needed to improve the installation efficiency and installation stability.

[0004] After retrieval, the published patent No. CN109304684B discloses a base installation tooling for a thermostat. The base includes a bottom plate, side walls protruding upward from the four sides of the bottom plate, and mounting lugs protruding outward from the middle parts of the left and right sides of the bottom plate. The base installation tooling includes a workbench, and a magnetic metal layer is attached to the upper surface of the workbench. A base placement groove matching the base structure is provided on the workbench. Through grooves for the mounting lugs to extend out are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the base placement groove. A U-shaped magnet block is adsorbed on the workbench, and the magnet block can move back and forth along the base placement groove. Pressing arms capable of pressing the mounting lugs are provided on the left and right sides of the magnet block. When installing the thermostat, the base is placed in the base installation groove to facilitate fixing the base. The magnet block can clamp the mounting lugs between the pressing arms and the through grooves, preventing the base from sliding out of the base installation groove, and improving the stability of the assembly. After installation, the thermostat can be quickly taken out of the workbench from the mounting lugs, and the work efficiency is high.

[0005] Although the above-mentioned base installation tooling for a thermostat solves the problems of low installation efficiency and poor installation stability during the assembly of the existing thermostat, there are still the following deficiencies: when the magnet block slides, since the magnet block is adsorbed to the magnetic metal layer on the upper surface of the workbench, the sliding resistance between the magnet block and the workbench will increase. With the long-term use of the workbench, wear will also occur between the magnet block and the workbench, reducing the service life of the workbench and the magnet block. The adsorption force will also become poor due to wear, affecting the overall use. At the same time, due to the wear of the magnet block, the mounting lugs will also be worn when the magnet block contacts the mounting lugs, thereby affecting the quality of the thermostat base.

[0006] Therefore, it is particularly important to design a base installation tooling for a thermostat to solve the above defects. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention designs a base installation tool for a thermostat. This base installation tool for the thermostat aims to solve the technical problems in the prior art that the base installation tool for the thermostat is worn, reducing its service life, affecting the overall use, and causing wear of the installation lugs, affecting the quality of the thermostat base.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0009] A base installation tool for a thermostat, including an adjustment base and a workbench. The workbench is hinged to the front end of the adjustment base. A support frame is rotatably connected to the back surface of the workbench. A placement plate is slidably connected to the front surface of the workbench. Two groups of positioning plates are installed on both the left and right sides of the front surface of the placement plate. An abutting plate is installed at the top end of the front surface of the workbench. The placement plate is fixedly connected to a fixed box on the back surface of the workbench. Guide slide bars are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the back surface of the workbench and inside the fixed box, and the fixed box is slidably connected to the guide slide bars.

[0010] As a preferred solution of the present invention, a plurality of hollow grooves are formed inside the adjustment base. A plurality of first adjustment tooth blocks are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the top of the adjustment base. The first adjustment tooth blocks are adapted to be used with the support frame.

[0011] As a preferred solution of the present invention, both the left and right ends of the support frame are rotatably connected to the workbench through connection blocks. The connection blocks are fixedly connected to the workbench by screws.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0023] Embodiment:

[0024] Please refer to Figures 2 - 4 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0025] A base installation tool for a thermostat, comprising an adjustment base 1 and a workbench 2. The workbench 2 is hinged to the front end of the adjustment base 1. A support frame 3 is rotatably connected to the back surface of the workbench 2. A placement plate 4 is slidably connected to the front surface of the workbench 2. Two groups of positioning plates 5 are installed on both the left and right sides of the front surface of the placement plate 4. A pressing plate 6 is installed at the top of the front surface of the workbench 2. A fixed box 7 is fixedly connected to the back surface of the placement plate 4 where it is located on the workbench 2. Guide slide bars 8 are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the back surface of the workbench 2 and inside the fixed box 7, and the fixed box 7 is slidably connected to the guide slide bars 8. When installing the thermostat, first release the fixation of the placement plate 4 by the fixed box 7, then slide the placement plate 4 downward to leave enough space for the thermostat base. Then place the base of the thermostat on the placement plate 4. The positioning plates 5 facilitate positioning the left and right sides of the base. At the same time, after the base is placed on the placement plate 4, the installation lug of the thermostat will be stuck between the two groups of positioning plates 5 on the same side of the placement plate 4, thereby fixing and restricting the installation lug. After the base is placed, slowly slide the placement plate 4 upward until the top of the base abuts against the pressing plate 6. Then use the fixed box 7 to fix the placement plate 4, thereby assembling the thermostat, improving the assembly stability, not affecting the installation tool itself, and not affecting the quality of the base. After the assembly is completed, release the fixation of the placement plate 4 by the fixed box 7 to remove the thermostat from the placement plate 4, thereby improving the work efficiency of the assembly.

[0026] First, a plurality of hollow grooves are provided inside the adjustment base 1. A plurality of first adjustment tooth blocks 9 are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the top of the adjustment base 1. The first adjustment tooth blocks 9 are adapted to be used with the support frame 3. The design of the hollow grooves reduces the material used for the adjustment base 1 without affecting its strength, reducing its production cost. The support frame 3 can adjust the inclination angle of the workbench 2 in cooperation with a plurality of first adjustment tooth blocks 9. When assembling the thermostat, the operator does not need to look down during operation, and it is not easy to get tired during long-term assembly, making the work easier.

[0027] Furthermore, both the left and right ends of the support frame 3 are rotatably connected to the workbench 2 through connection blocks 10. The connection blocks 10 are fixedly connected to the workbench 2 by screws. Through the connection blocks 10, the support frame 3 can freely swing and adjust on the back surface of the workbench 2, and at the same time, it is convenient to connect and assemble with the workbench 2.

[0028] Then, a lifting end 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the placement plate 4. A positioning groove 12 is formed between the two groups of positioning plates 5 on the same side of the placement plate 4. A chute is provided at the corresponding position on the front surface of the workbench 2 in the middle part opposite to the placement plate 4. When the base is placed on the placement plate 4, the lifting end 11 is used to support the bottom end of the base. Then, after the base is placed on the placement plate 4, the installation lug is fixed and restricted through the positioning groove 12. The opening of the chute allows the workbench 2 to have space for movement.

[0029] Secondly, pinch grooves 13 are provided on both the left and right sides inside the fixing box 7. Pinch blocks 14 are slidably connected inside the two groups of pinch grooves 13. A spring 15 is fixedly connected between the two groups of pinch blocks 14. On the back of the workbench 2 and inside the two groups of guiding slide bars 8, multiple groups of second adjusting teeth 16 are fixedly connected. On one side of the two groups of pinch blocks 14 close to the second adjusting teeth 16, multiple groups of engaging teeth 17 are fixedly connected. Insert the fingers into the pinch grooves 13 and pinch the two groups of pinch blocks 14 simultaneously to make the spring 15 contract, so as to move the engaging teeth 17 out from between the second adjusting teeth 16, thereby releasing the fixation of the placement plate 4 and sliding the placement plate 4.

[0030] Finally, a fixing cover 18 is installed on the back of the fixing box 7. The left and right sides of the fixing cover 18 are fixedly connected to the fixing box 7 through screws. The fixing cover 18 is used to limit the position of the pinch blocks 14, and at the same time, opening the fixing cover 18 facilitates the maintenance of the inside of the fixing box 7.

[0031] In this embodiment, the implementation scenario is specifically as follows: When installing the thermostat, first use the fixing box 7 to release the fixation of the placement plate 4, then slide the placement plate 4 downward to leave enough space for the base of the thermostat. Then place the base of the thermostat on the placement plate 4. The positioning plates 5 facilitate the positioning of the left and right sides of the base. At the same time, after the base is placed on the placement plate 4, the installation lugs of the thermostat will be stuck between the two groups of positioning plates 5 on the same side of the placement plate 4, thereby fixing and restricting the installation lugs. After the base is placed, slowly slide the placement plate 4 upward until the top of the base abuts against the abutting plate 6. Then use the fixing box 7 to fix the placement plate 4, thereby assembling the thermostat, improving the assembly stability, and at the same time not affecting the installation tool itself and not affecting the quality of the base. After the assembly is completed, use the fixing box 7 to release the fixation of the placement plate 4 to remove the thermostat from the placement plate 4, thereby improving the work efficiency of the assembly. The entire operation process is simple and convenient. Compared with the existing installation tool for the base of the thermostat, the present invention can prevent affecting the installation tool itself and does not affect the quality of the base, and at the same time can improve the assembly stability and work efficiency.

[0032] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
