[0022] The technical features of the present invention are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] As shown in the figure, the utility model is a washing machine knob inspection tool, including a tooling base plate 1, and a plurality of inspection tool bosses 2 configured to cooperate with the washing machine knob are constructed on the upper end surface of the tooling base plate 1. In the present application, the inspection tool boss 2 and the tooling base plate 1 can be integrally formed by bakelite material through a machining center, or can be processed and manufactured by other polymer materials or metal materials.

[0024] In this embodiment, two adjacent inspection jig bosses 2 are spaced apart, and all inspection jig bosses 2 are arranged in a straight line on the upper end surface of the tooling base plate 1. The spacing between two adjacent inspection jig bosses 2 corresponds to the spacing of the washing machine knob when it is not removed from the nozzle branch after injection molding. After the injection molding of the washing machine knob workpiece is completed, it does not need to be removed from the diversion nozzle branch. After the injection molding is completed, it can be placed in the inspection jig as a whole for dimensional inspection. Multiple washing machine knob workpieces can be inspected at one time, avoiding the trouble of multiple loading caused by the inspection of a single washing machine knob workpiece.

[0025] The shape of the gauge boss 2 is matched with the internal shape structure of the washing machine knob. The gauge boss 2 is a conical cylindrical boss, and the top and bottom end surfaces of the gauge boss 2 are both circular, and the top end surface diameter of the gauge boss 2 is smaller than the bottom end surface diameter. The upper end surface and the side surface of the gauge boss 2 are respectively the top dimension positioning surface 201 and the side dimension positioning surface 202, and the shapes of the top dimension positioning surface 201 and the side dimension positioning surface 202 are matched with the internal top wall and inner side wall of the washing machine knob.

[0026] A clearance fit is adopted between the top dimension positioning surface 201 and the inner top end surface of the washing machine knob, and the clearance between the two is controlled at 0.01 mm.

[0027] The outer edge of the top end of the inspection tool boss 2 is annular, and a chamfered surface 205 is provided at the outer edge of the top end surface of the inspection tool boss 2. The chamfered surface 205 is arranged in a ring shape around the outer edge of the top end surface of the inspection tool boss 2. The chamfered surface 205 is arranged to cooperate with the inner wall gap of the washing machine knob, and the gap between the chamfered surface 205 and the inner wall of the washing machine knob is controlled to be 1 mm.

[0028] The middle section of the side dimension positioning surface 202 of the gauge boss 2 has a positioning step 204, which is annular and arranged around the gauge boss 2. The gap between the side dimension positioning surface 202 above the positioning step 204 and the inner wall of the washing machine knob, and the gap between the side dimension positioning surface 202 below the positioning step 204 and the inner wall of the washing machine knob are both controlled at 0.05 mm.

[0029] An air-avoiding groove 3 is constructed in the middle of the top surface of the inspection tool boss 2, and the top opening of the air-avoiding groove 3 is located in the middle of the top surface of the inspection tool boss 2. A plurality of positioning notches 301 are arranged at the top opening of the air-avoiding groove 3, and the positioning notches 301 are evenly spaced around the top opening of the air-avoiding groove 3. The inner bottom end surface of the air-avoiding groove 3 is an inner positioning surface and has a lower end notch 203, and the lower end notch 203 passes through the tooling bottom plate 1.

[0030] After the washing machine knob is mounted on the inspection tool boss 2, the column 4 inside the washing machine knob is inserted into the inspection tool boss 2 from the air avoidance groove 3, and the gap between the side wall of the column 4 inside the washing machine knob and the inner side wall of the air avoidance groove 3 is controlled to be 0.01 mm. The lower end of the column 4 inside the washing machine knob is spaced from the inner bottom end surface of the air avoidance groove 3. The lower end notch 203 plays a venting role to prevent the column 4 inside the washing machine knob from being difficult to insert into the air avoidance groove 3.

[0031] The positioning notch 301 is arranged in cooperation with the reinforcing rib at the root of the column 4 inside the washing machine knob to play a role in installation and positioning.

[0032] When in use, the washing machine knob workpiece is manually placed on the inspection jig boss 2 of the inspection jig, and the washing machine knob workpiece slowly falls by its own gravity, and the inspector can visually feel obvious damping. After the washing machine knob workpiece falls on the inspection jig boss 2 and fits perfectly with the inspection jig boss 2, the workpiece is manually shaken, and if there is no obvious gap, it is qualified.

[0033] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by ordinary technicians in this technical field within the essential scope of the present invention should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
