Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile parts processing, in particular to a compression length measuring tool for a constant velocity universal joint drive shaft assembly. Background Art

[0002] The drive shaft assembly of a car's constant velocity joint (often called a constant velocity ball cage or constant velocity joint) consists of two constant velocity joints, a drive shaft, and a sleeve connecting them. The constant velocity joint can be elastically compressed and stretched within a certain range to adapt to the changes in the length of the shaft assembly that may occur during vehicle suspension and steering movements.

[0003] During the production process of the constant velocity joint drive shaft assembly, it is necessary to measure the shortest compressed length thereof. The existing compression length measuring tooling generally uses a hand-cranked screw to drive the clamping plate to move and clamp the drive shaft assembly. When the drive shaft assembly is compressed to near the limit, the clamping plate is subjected to greater resistance, which consumes a lot of physical strength of the operator and is prone to inadequate compression, resulting in measurement errors. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a constant velocity universal joint drive shaft assembly compression length measuring tool, which can provide assistance when measuring the compression length of the drive shaft assembly, reduce the physical consumption of the operator, ensure that the compression is in place, and improve the accuracy of the measurement.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a constant velocity universal joint drive shaft assembly compression length measuring tool, including a machine platform, horizontally symmetrical sliding rods are arranged on the machine platform, a screw rod is arranged between the two sliding rods, a handwheel is arranged at one end of the screw rod, a pressure seat slidably connected to the two sliding rods is arranged on the nut seat of the screw rod, a cylinder is arranged on the top of the pressure seat, a dynamic pressure plate is arranged on the telescopic end of the cylinder, and a fixed pressure plate matching the dynamic pressure plate is arranged on the machine platform.

[0006] A further improvement of the utility model is that at least one placement seat is slidably connected between the dynamic pressure plate and the fixed pressure plate and located on the sliding rod, and a support block is provided at the upper end of the placement seat, and a V-shaped opening matching the drive shaft of the drive shaft assembly is provided at the upper end of the support block.

[0007] A further improvement of the utility model is that the support blocks are also provided on the opposite sides of the movable clamping plate and the fixed clamping plate, and the V-shaped openings of all the support blocks are arranged along a straight line.

[0008] A further improvement of the present invention is that the telescopic direction of the cylinder is consistent with the length direction of the slide rod.

[0009] A further improvement of the utility model is that a switch for controlling the cylinder is provided on one side of the hand wheel.

[0010] A further improvement of the utility model is that a scale is provided on one side of the machine along the length direction of the screw rod, and the starting end of the scale is flush with the pressing surface of the fixed pressure plate.

[0011] A further improvement of the utility model is that a pointer is provided on one side of the pressure surface of the dynamic pressure plate, and the needle of the pointer is located above the scale.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0013] The utility model can provide assistance when measuring the compression length of the drive shaft assembly through the cooperation of the screw rod and the cylinder. When the drive shaft assembly is compressed to near the limit, the cylinder is used to press it, thereby reducing the physical consumption of the operator, ensuring that the compression is in place, and improving the accuracy of the measurement.

[0014] The utility model can provide greater flexibility in adjustment through manual preliminary adjustment of the screw rod. The operator can manually pre-adjust the position and then make final fine adjustment through the cylinder, thereby reducing the limitation caused by the cylinder stroke and improving the scope of application.

[0015] Although direct full-course compression by the cylinder can overcome the problem of inadequate compression caused by manual compression, it may lead to instability of the drive shaft assembly in some cases, especially when the compression force is high. The utility model can ensure stable compression in the last short distance through manual control by using the manual preliminary adjustment of the screw rod, which helps to improve the stability of the measurement.
