Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tooling installation, in particular to a vehicle body tooling assembly system. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing popularity of new energy vehicles at this stage, the forms of automobile development and installation are also evolving, especially people's attention to the safety of automobile bodies is increasing. At the same time, the trend of highly integrated and modular automobile development has also prompted profound changes in the body structure, moving towards a more simplified direction, and the efficiency of automobile development needs to be continuously improved.

[0003] For the installation of tooling on the bottom of the automobile body-in-white, the existing tooling installation operation is often to manually fix the tooling to the bottom of the car body after the car body is lifted and fixed at the installation station, and another person cooperates in the middle to install the fixing screws and tighten them. The above tooling installation process requires the cooperation of two or more operators to operate, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. And because the tooling is installed at the bottom of the car body, the position and light are limited, and the field of vision of the locating pin inserted from bottom to top into the locating hole of the white body is very poor, which is difficult to operate manually, so the efficiency of automobile tooling installation is also low. In addition, when manually fixing with screws, the tooling is manually supported to fit with the car body, and the manual hand-held screw tightening machine is used to tighten the screws in the middle, which poses certain safety risks.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new type of body tooling installation module to improve the tooling installation efficiency and operational safety of the body-in-white underbody. Utility Model Content
