Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of automotive parts production, and particularly relates to a buckle installation device for an automotive armrest box trim panel. Background Art

[0002] In order to consider strength and vehicle installation requirements, multiple buckles are usually installed on vehicle trim panels to play a role in fixing and installation, ensuring the stability and safety of use.

[0003] For example, on the trim panel 1 of an automotive armrest box, several first buckles 11 with magnetism and several second buckles 12 are installed (as Figure 1 shown), and several positioning grooves 15 are also provided on the trim panel 1: several first card slots 13 are provided on both the front and back of the trim panel 1. The first buckle 11 is in a "ji" shape (as Figure 2 shown), including an arc-shaped insertion part 111 and clamping parts 112 connected to both sides of the insertion part. A first clamping groove 113 is formed between the insertion part 111 and the clamping parts 112. The insertion part 111 of the first buckle 11 extends into the lower end of the first card slot 13, and the clamping part 112 of the first buckle 11 is clamped at the notch of the first card slot 13. The width of the insertion part 111 is greater than the width of the notch. Therefore, when installing, it is necessary to press hard to deform the insertion part 111 to pass through the notch of the first card slot 13 to complete the installation, and the first buckles 11 located on the front and back of the trim panel 1 need to be installed from the notch of the first card slot 13, that is, the first buckles 11 in different directions need to be installed from the front and back of the trim panel 1 respectively; several clamping blocks 14 are provided at both the upper and lower ends of the side wall of the trim panel 1. The second buckle 12 is in a "kui" shape (as Figure 3 shown), and a threaded pipe column 122 protruding outwards is connected to one side of the second buckle 12. A second insertion groove 121 is formed in the middle of the second buckle 12. The width of the notch of the second insertion groove 121 is smaller than the thickness of the clamping block 14. Therefore, when installing, it is necessary to press hard to clamp the second insertion groove 121 of the second buckle 12 with the clamping block 14 on the trim panel 1. Through these first buckles 11 and second buckles 12, it helps the armrest box to be accurately and tightly docked with other components inside the vehicle (such as seats, center consoles, etc.), ensuring that the trim panel is firmly fixed, avoiding unnecessary movement or noise during vehicle driving, and improving the riding experience of passengers.

[0004] However, the buckle installation process in the prior art has obvious limitations. Usually, the buckle installation relies on manual operation. Workers need to pick up the buckles one by one, align them with the preset slots or blocks of the trim, and press or knock them into place. This process is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also due to the large number of buckles, frequent manual operations can easily cause hand fatigue, soreness, and even injury to the workers. In addition, manual installation makes it difficult to ensure that each buckle can be accurately and evenly stressed, which affects the consistency of installation and the stability of the trim, and may further affect the aesthetics and durability of the entire interior.
