Detailed implementation manners
[0026] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0027] Embodiment 1
[0028] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, this embodiment proposes an external positioning tooling for the rear door of an automobile, including a robotic arm 1. One end of the robotic arm 1 is fixedly connected to a positioning frame 2. A cylinder 3 is provided at the top of the positioning frame 2. The bottom of the said cylinder 3 is fixedly connected to a fixing plate 4. A piston rod 5 is slidably connected inside the cylinder 3. One end of the piston rod 5 is fixedly connected to a sliding block 6. One side of the outside of the sliding block 6 is fixedly connected to a rack 7. A rotating rod 8 is rotatably connected inside the positioning frame 2. A gear is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod 8. The gear meshes with the rack 7. The bottom of the rotating rod 8 is fixedly connected to a rotating disc 9. Four guiding grooves 10 are opened inside the rotating disc 9. Four guiding plates 11 are slidably connected inside the four guiding grooves 10. Fixators 12 are provided on one side of the outside of the four guiding plates 11. Four sliding rails 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning frame 2.
[0029] In this embodiment, the fixing plate 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning frame 2. One end of the rotating rod 8 extends to the bottom of the positioning frame 2, which can facilitate the connection between the rotating rod 8 and the rotating disc 9.
[0030] In this embodiment, the sliding block 6 is slidably connected to the top of the positioning frame 2, and the rack 7 is slidably connected to the top of the positioning frame 2, which can facilitate the movement of the sliding block 6 driven by the telescopic movement of the piston rod 5.
[0031] In this embodiment, one end of the guiding plate 11 is slidably connected to the inside of the sliding rail 13. The four guiding grooves 10 are arranged in a circumferential distribution, which can facilitate the sliding of the four guiding plates 11 along the inside of the four guiding grooves 10.
[0032] During use, the staff first operate the robotic arm 1 to drive the positioning frame 2 and move it to a suitable position of the rear door of the car to be installed. Subsequently, the staff start the air cylinder 3. After the air cylinder 3 starts, it drives the sliding block 6 to move through the piston rod 5. When the sliding block 6 moves, it drives the rack 7 to move. When the rack 7 moves, it drives the gear to rotate. When the gear rotates, it drives the rotating rod 8 to rotate. When the rotating rod 8 rotates, it drives the rotating disk 9 to rotate. When the rotating disk 9 rotates, it drives one end of the four guide plates 11 to move along the internal guide of the guide groove 10. At the same time, the other end of the guide plate 11 moves outward along the inside of the sliding rail 13. When the guide plate 11 moves, it drives the fixator 12 to move outward. When the four fixators 12 move outward, they come into contact with the four corners of the rear door of the car. At this time, through the contact between the four fixators 12 and the four corners of the rear door of the car, it can be fixed. Subsequently, after the staff continue to control the robotic arm 1 to move to the required installation position, they control the air cylinder 3 to drive the piston rod 5 to move in the reverse direction. When the piston rod 5 moves, it drives the sliding block 6 to move. When the sliding block 6 moves, it drives the rack 7 to move. When the rack 7 moves, it drives the gear to rotate in the reverse direction. When the gear rotates in the reverse direction, it drives the rotating rod 8 to rotate. When the rotating rod 8 rotates, it drives the rotating disk 9 to rotate in the reverse direction. When the rotating disk 9 rotates in the reverse direction, it drives one end of the four guide plates 11 to move along the internal guide of the guide groove 10 to the other end. At the same time, the other end of the guide plate 11 moves inward along the inside of the sliding rail 13. When the guide plate 11 moves inward, it drives the fixator 12 to move inward. At this time, the contact between the four fixators 12 and the four corners of the rear door of the car disappears. The staff only need to control the robotic arm 1 to remove the positioning frame 2. Through the above work, it not only facilitates the fixing work of the rear door of the car, but also reduces the manual handling and installation, improving the production efficiency.
[0033] Embodiment 2
[0034] As Figures 4 to 6 shown, based on the same concept as the above Embodiment 1, this embodiment also proposes that one side of the outside of each of the four fixators 12 is fixedly connected with a connecting plate 14, and a first spring 15 is fixedly connected to the top of each of the four connecting plates 14.
[0035] In this embodiment, a buckle 16 is fixedly connected to the top of each of the four connecting plates 14, and the first spring 15 is fixedly connected to the buckle 16, which can facilitate the first spring 15 to drive the buckle 16 to expand and contract when it expands and contracts.
[0036] In this embodiment, a card slot 17 is opened at the top of each of the four guide plates 11, two second springs 18 are fixedly connected to the top of each of the four guide plates 11, and a hollow box 19 is fixedly connected to the top of each of the four guide plates 11. The two second springs 18 are symmetrically arranged, which can facilitate the buckle 16 to be fixed inside the card slot 17.
[0037] In this embodiment, a sliding plate 20 is slidably connected inside each of the four hollow boxes 19. The sliding plate 20 is fixedly connected to two second springs 18. The bottom of the sliding plate 20 is in contact with the buckle 16, and the buckle 16 is in contact with the card slot 17, which facilitates the movement of the sliding plate 20 to drive the buckle 16 to move into the inside of the guide plate 11 at the same time.
[0038] When the fixer 12 is worn to a certain extent during long-term use, during maintenance, the staff can press the sliding plate 20 to drive the second spring 18 to compress downward. When the bottom of the sliding plate 20 moves to contact the buckle 16, the bottom of the sliding plate 20 will drive the buckle 16 to move downward along the card slot 17 into the inside of the guide plate 11. At this time, the staff can pull the fixer 12 to drive the connecting plate 14 to move. When the connecting plate 14 moves, it will drive the buckle 16 to move. When the buckle 16 moves outside the guide plate 11, it is okay. When installation is required, the staff can push the fixer 12 to drive the connecting plate 14 to move. When the connecting plate 14 moves, it will drive the buckle 16 to move. When the buckle 16 moves to the entrance of the inside of the guide plate 11 and contacts it, the buckle 16 will be forced to drive the first spring 15 to compress and then enter the inside of the guide plate 11. When the buckle 16 moves to the card slot 17, the buckle 16 is no longer stressed. At this time, the first spring 15 will reset and drive the buckle 16 to reset, and then the fixer 12 will be fixed at one end of the guide plate 11.
[0039] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
