[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other arbitrarily.

[0025] During the assembly process of the air conditioner chassis, it is usually necessary to place the chassis on a conveyor belt, and workers on both sides of the conveyor belt assemble various parts according to different processes and division of labor. Among them, during the assembly process of the motor housing, the motor housing needs to be positioned on the air conditioner chassis and fixed with fasteners.

[0026] In the traditional assembly process, the operator needs to manually tighten the fasteners so that the fasteners fix the motor housing. However, in this method, due to the large number of fasteners, it takes a long time to manually tighten the fasteners, resulting in low assembly efficiency of the air conditioner indoor chassis. At the same time, when the air conditioner indoor chassis of different specifications and sizes is replaced, the motor housing it adapts to will also change, which will cause the tightening angle of the fasteners of the motor housing to change. Therefore, a fastener automatic locking module that can adapt to different tightening angles is needed.

[0027] Based on this, an exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a fastener automatic locking module, in which an automatic locking mechanism is provided, and the automatic locking mechanism includes an angle adjustment mechanism, which can adjust the angle of the locking fastener. In this way, not only the automatic tightening of the motor housing fastener is achieved, but also the assembly efficiency is improved; at the same time, the angle adjustment mechanism can adjust the tightening angle of the fastener to adapt to air-conditioning indoor unit chassis of different specifications and sizes, thereby improving the versatility of the module.

[0028] An exemplary embodiment of the present application provides an angle-adjustable fastener automatic locking module, such as Figure 1 As shown, the module includes an automatic locking frame 10 and an automatic locking mechanism 20 arranged on the automatic locking frame 10. Preferably, two fastener automatic locking modules are arranged side by side in the assembly line for automatically locking the fasteners of the motor housing. The automatic locking mechanism 20 includes an angle adjustment mechanism 205, which is used to adjust the angle of the locking fastener. In this way, the module can be adapted to the chassis of the air conditioner interior unit of different specifications and sizes, thereby improving the versatility of the module.

[0029] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the automatic locking mechanism 20 includes a first module, a second module 202, a third module 203, an angle adjustment mechanism 205, and an automatic locking gun head 204. Preferably, the setting direction of the first module is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the air conditioner inner unit chassis; the setting direction of the second module 202 is the same as the conveying direction of the air conditioner inner unit chassis; the setting direction of the third module 203 is set at an angle to the second module 202. The second module 202 is movably arranged on the first module, and under the drive of the first module, the second module 202 can reciprocate along the first module; the third module 203 is movably arranged on the second module 202 through the angle adjustment mechanism 205, and under the drive of the second module 202, the third module 203 can reciprocate along the second module 202; the automatic locking gun head 204 is movably arranged on the third module 203, and under the drive of the third module 203, the automatic locking gun head 204 can reciprocate along the third module 203; the angle adjustment mechanism 205 is used to adjust the relative angle between the second module 202 and the third module 203. When replacing the air conditioner indoor chassis of different specifications and sizes, the angle adjustment mechanism 205 can adjust the relative angle between the second module 202 and the third module 203, and then adjust the angle between the movement direction of the automatic locking gun head 204 and the vertical direction to adapt to the air conditioner indoor chassis of different specifications and sizes.

[0030] like Figure 4 and 5As shown, the angle adjustment mechanism 205 includes a first bracket 2051, a second bracket 2052 and an angle adjustment assembly 2053; the first bracket 2051 is movably arranged on the third module 203; the first bracket 2051 and the top of the second bracket 2052 are rotatably connected; one end of the angle adjustment assembly 2053 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the first bracket 2051, and the other end is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the second bracket 2052. The angle adjustment assembly 2053 includes a cylinder, and the two ends of the cylinder are rotatably connected to the first bracket 2051 and the second bracket 2052 through a mounting seat. In this way, when the extended end of the cylinder extends and retracts, the second bracket 2052 can be driven to rotate relative to the first bracket 2051 to adjust the angle between the second bracket 2052 and the first bracket 2051, and then adjust the angle between the automatic locking gun head 204 and the vertical direction, so as to adapt to the chassis of the air conditioner indoor unit of different specifications and sizes, and automatically lock the fastener.

[0031] In order to better support the second bracket 2052 and the automatic locking gun head 204, the angle adjustment mechanism 205 also includes an auxiliary adjustment component; the auxiliary adjustment component is arranged between the first bracket 2051 and the second bracket 2052, and is used to assist in adjusting the angle between the first bracket 2051 and the second bracket 2052. The auxiliary adjustment component includes a first adjustment component 2054a and a second adjustment component 2054b, and the two first adjustment components 2054a are respectively arranged on both sides of the first bracket 2051 and the second bracket 2052; the two ends of the second adjustment component 2054b are respectively connected to the two first adjustment components 2054a.

[0032] In one embodiment, the first adjustment component 2054a includes a first connecting plate, a first adjustment block, a second adjustment block and a first adjustment rod; one end of the first connecting plate is arranged on the first bracket 2051, and the other end is connected to the first adjustment block; the second adjustment block is arranged on the second bracket 2052; the first adjustment rod passes through the first adjustment block, and its end abuts against the second adjustment block. The distance between the first adjustment block and the second adjustment block can be adjusted by adjusting the first adjustment rod. The second adjustment component 2054b includes a second connecting plate and a second adjustment rod; the two ends of the second connecting plate are respectively connected to the two first connecting plates; the second adjustment rod passes through the second connecting plate, and its end abuts against the second bracket 2052. Preferably, the first adjustment rod and the second adjustment rod can be screws, studs or bolts. The distance between the second connecting plate and the second bracket 2052 can be adjusted by adjusting the second adjusting rod. Therefore, the first adjusting component 2054a and the second adjusting component 2054b can assist in adjusting the angle between the first bracket 2051 and the second bracket 2052, and support the first and second brackets 2052 to increase the stability between the first bracket 2051 and the second bracket 2052.
