[0032] The front-end module of an automobile is used to integrate and optimize various components at the front of the automobile. The front-end module is installed on the automobile through an assembly tooling. However, before installing the front-end module on the assembly tooling, the front-end module needs to be fixed on a checking fixture tooling to facilitate the subsequent detection of the accuracy of the front-end module. However, the efficiency of this detection and assembly method is relatively low, and the labor intensity of employees is relatively high.
[0033] To solve the technical problems existing in the related art, the present application provides an assembly tooling. Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 which are the structural schematic diagrams of an embodiment of the assembly tooling and the front-end module provided by the present application. Figure 2 is Figure 1 the enlarged structural schematic diagram of the installation component and the front-end module shown.
[0034] The assembly tooling 10 includes a reference bracket 100, an installation component 120, and a detection component 130. The reference bracket 100 includes a front reference bracket 110 and a rear reference bracket 200. The front reference bracket 110 and the rear reference bracket 200 are composed of a square or multiple square frame structures, and the square frames can be used to install various required components. The rear reference bracket 200 can be divided into a front part and a rear part. The rear part is connected to the vehicle body. The width of the rear part in the first direction perpendicular to the sliding direction X and the lifting direction Z can be greater than the width of the front part. The width of the front part can be equal to the width of the front reference bracket 110. The vertical beams at both ends of the front reference bracket 110 in the first direction and the vertical beams at both ends of the rear reference bracket 200 are arranged in sequence in the lifting direction Z and are parallel to each other, so that the sliding connection between the rear reference bracket 200 and the front reference bracket 110 is more firm. The rear reference bracket 200 is connected to the vehicle body, and the front reference bracket 110 can move in the sliding direction X with the rear reference bracket 200 as a reference.
[0035] The mounting assembly 120 is fixedly connected to the front reference bracket 110. The mounting assembly 120 can fix the front-end module 300. The front reference bracket 110 is connected to the front-end module 300 through the mounting assembly 120. There can be multiple mounting assemblies 120, and the multiple mounting assemblies 120 can be spaced and symmetrically arranged in the first direction so that the assembly tooling 10 fixes the front-end module 300 firmly. The rear reference bracket 200 is fixedly connected to the vehicle body. Thus, the relative position of the front-end module 300 with respect to the vehicle body can change in the sliding direction X through the front reference bracket 110, and then the front-end module 300 can be installed on the vehicle body.
[0036] The detecting member 130 is connected to the mounting assembly 120. The detecting member 130 is used to cooperate with the mounting assembly 120 to assist the measuring tool in measuring the production accuracy of the front-end module 300 so that the front-end module 300 is installed on the assembly tooling 10. After the assembly tooling 10 is installed on the vehicle body, the measuring tool can be used first to perform accuracy detection on the front-end module 300 with the detecting member 130 as a reference, and then the front-end module 300 with qualified accuracy can be installed on the vehicle body through the assembly tooling 10, eliminating the process of additional gauge measurement.
[0037] Through the above implementation manner, the detecting member 130 and the mounting assembly 120 can be integrated into the reference bracket 100 to form the assembly tooling 10. The front reference bracket 110 is connected to the front-end module 300 and is slidably connected to the rear reference bracket 200. The rear reference bracket 200 is connected to the vehicle body. Further, after the assembly tooling 10 with the front-end module 300 installed is installed on the vehicle body, the detecting member 130 can cooperate with the mounting assembly 120 to provide detection conditions for the subsequent measuring tool. After passing the detection, the qualified front-end module 300 can be installed on the vehicle body.
[0038] See Figure 3 , Figure 3 is Figure 1 a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the mounting assembly and the detecting member shown.
[0039] In some embodiments, the mounting assembly 120 includes a clamping mechanism 121, a pressing member 122, and an adapter plate 123. The adapter plate 123 is respectively connected to the pressing member 122, the clamping mechanism 121, and the front reference bracket 110. The pressing member 122 abuts against the surface 310 to be measured of the front-end module 300 in the sliding direction X. The clamping mechanism 121 is used to cooperate with the pressing member 122 to fix the front-end module 300. The detecting member 130 is connected to the adapter plate 123. There may be two mounting assemblies 120. The two mounting assemblies 120 are arranged at one end of the front reference bracket 110 away from the rear reference bracket 200, and the two mounting assemblies 120 can be symmetrically arranged at intervals in the first direction to fix the front-end module 300 between the two mounting assemblies 120. One end of the front reference bracket 110 away from the rear reference bracket 200 is fixedly connected with an adapter plate 123, and the clamping mechanism 121, the pressing member 122, and the detecting member 130 are connected to the adapter plate 123, so that the mounting assembly 120 has more combination types, and further makes the assembly tooling 10 applicable to different scenarios. The adapter plate 123 is provided with a plurality of screw holes of different sizes penetrating through both surfaces in the sliding direction X. The clamping mechanism 121, the pressing member 122, and the detecting member 130 can be fixed to the adapter plate 123 through the screw holes and screws, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the positions of the components and further fix the front-end module 300. There may be multiple adapter plates 123, and the adapter plates 123 can be fixedly connected to the clamping assembly, the pressing member 122, or the detecting member 130 through different adapter plates 123. Each component on the reference bracket 100 can be connected to the reference bracket 100 through the adapter plate 123. The clamping mechanism 121 may include a clamping plate and a wrench. By rotating the wrench, the clamping plate is moved away from or close to the front-end module 300. The surface 310 to be measured of the front-end module 300 abuts against the pressing member 122, so that the clamping plate and the pressing member 122 fix the front-end module 300 therebetween. The position of the clamping plate may be closer to the rear reference bracket 200 than that of the pressing member 122. A right-angle cushion block may also be provided on the clamping plate, and the turning point of the right-angle cushion block abuts against the corner of the front-end module 300, so that the clamping assembly fixes the front-end module 300 in the sliding direction X and the first direction. The detecting member 130 is perpendicular to the surface 310 to be measured, and one detecting member 130 corresponds to one surface 310 to be measured, providing measurement conditions for subsequent measurement work.
[0040] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 4 is Figure 3 an enlarged structural schematic diagram of the mounting assembly and the detecting member shown. Figure 5 is Figure 1 a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the assembly tooling shown.
[0041] In some embodiments, the detection member 130 includes a plurality of positioning members 131. The plurality of positioning members 131 are respectively fixedly connected to the adapter plate 123. The adapter plate 123 is connected to the front reference bracket 110 to mount the positioning members 131 on the front reference bracket 110. Each positioning member 131 includes a positioning surface 1311. The positioning surface 1311 faces the front-end module 300 and is spaced from the front-end module 300 in the sliding direction X. One end of the front reference bracket 110 away from the rear reference bracket 200 can be provided with the positioning members 131 at intervals in the first direction. The positioning members 131 can be used to position the front-end module 300 so that the front-end module 300 can be accurately mounted on the assembly tooling 10 through the positioning members 131. One positioning member 131 can have one positioning surface 1311. One positioning surface 1311 faces one surface to be measured 310 of the front-end module 300, and at least part of the positioning surface 1311 is in contact with the surface to be measured 310 or there is a gap between the positioning surface 1311 and the surface to be measured 310. Furthermore, the gap between each positioning surface 1311 and its corresponding surface to be measured 310 can be measured by a measuring tool to determine whether the accuracy of the surface to be measured 310 is qualified.
[0042] In some embodiments, the radial dimension of one end of the positioning member 131 away from the adapter plate 123 is smaller than the radial dimension of the end close to the adapter plate 123. The end of the positioning member 131 away from the adapter plate 123 is used to be inserted into the front-end module 300. At the position corresponding to the positioning member 131 on the surface to be measured 310, there is a positioning hole communicating the two surfaces in the sliding direction X. The end of the positioning member 131 away from the adapter plate 123 is inserted into the positioning hole. A part of the outer side wall between the end of the positioning member 131 close to the adapter plate 123 and the surface to be measured 310 extends peripherally. The extended part has a surface opposite to the surface to be measured 310, and this surface is the positioning surface 1311. When there is a gap greater than a certain threshold between at least part of the positioning surface 1311 and the surface to be measured 310, it indicates that the accuracy of the front-end module 300 is unqualified. This threshold can be set according to the actual situation and is not limited in this application.
[0043] In some embodiments, the reference bracket 100 includes a slide rail 250 and a slider 260. The slide rail 250 and the slider 260 are slidably connected. The slide rail 250 extends along the sliding direction X. One of the slide rail 250 and the slider 260 is disposed on the front reference bracket 110, and the other is disposed on the rear reference bracket 200. The front reference bracket 110 and the rear reference bracket 200 are slidably connected through the slide rail 250 and the slider 260. Two sets of the slide rail 250 and the slider 260 may be provided, and the two sets of the slide rail 250 and the slider 260 are symmetrically arranged in the first direction. The slide rail 250 and the slider 260 may be respectively disposed on the vertical beams of the front reference bracket 110 and the rear reference bracket 200 in the sliding direction X. The slide rail 250 and the slider 260 may be sequentially arranged in the lifting direction Z. The slider 260 has a through groove for the slide rail 250 to slide. One ends of the two side walls of the through groove away from the bottom wall of the through groove may extend oppositely, and both sides of the slide rail 250 connected to the extended parts of the two side walls of the slider 260 are provided with grooves for the extended parts of the two side walls to be inserted, so as to prevent the slide rail 250 and the slider 260 from falling off in the lifting direction Z. Thus, the slide rail 250 can move along the groove of the slider 260 in the sliding direction X. Detachable baffles may be provided at both ends of the slide rail 250 in the sliding direction X. The baffles may be fixed to both ends of the slide rail 250 or fixed to the front reference bracket 110, so that the slide rail 250 is located between the two baffles, to prevent the slide rail 250 from sliding out of the slider 260 due to excessive sliding distance, and also facilitate the disassembly of the slide rail 250 and the slider 260.
[0044] In some embodiments, the reference bracket 100 includes a locking mechanism 270. The locking mechanism 270 is respectively connected to the front reference bracket 110 and the rear reference bracket 200. The locking mechanism 270 is used to lock the front reference bracket 110 and the rear reference bracket 200. One end of the locking mechanism 270 is connected to the front reference bracket 110, and the other end is connected to the rear reference bracket 200. A limiting plate is provided at one end of the vertical beam of the rear reference bracket 200 close to the front reference bracket 110. A through hole for the locking mechanism 270 to penetrate is provided on the limiting plate. A locking wrench is provided at one end of the locking mechanism 270 close to the front reference bracket 110, and a screw rod and a screw sleeved on the screw rod are provided at the end away from the front reference bracket 110. The screw rod penetrates through the through hole of the limiting plate, and the radial dimension of the screw is larger than the radial dimension of the through hole, so that the limiting plate is located between the screw and the locking wrench. The relative position between the screw and the locking wrench can be adjusted to limit the sliding distance of the front reference bracket 110. The relative position of the limiting plate and the locking mechanism 270 can also be fixed by rotating the locking wrench to lock the screw rod, thereby limiting the position of the front reference bracket 110.
[0045] In some embodiments, the reference bracket 100 includes a plurality of positioning pins. The plurality of positioning pins are connected to the rear reference bracket 200. The plurality of positioning pins can be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the rear reference bracket 200 in a first direction. The vehicle body has positioning holes corresponding to the positioning pins, so that the reference bracket 100 can be accurately connected to the vehicle body, and further the front-end module 300 can be accurately fixed to the vehicle body.
[0046] In some embodiments, the reference bracket 100 includes an initial support bracket 210. The initial support bracket 210 is connected to the rear reference bracket 200. The initial support bracket 210 is used to support the reference bracket 100 on the vehicle body. The number of the initial support brackets 210 can be two. The two initial support brackets 210 are fixed to one end of the rear reference bracket 200 away from the front reference bracket 110, and the two initial support brackets 210 can be symmetrically arranged at both ends of the rear reference bracket 200 in the first direction. The initial support bracket 210 can be fixedly connected to the rear reference bracket 200 through an adapter plate 123. The initial support bracket 210 can be in an inverted "L" shape. The vehicle body is provided with a connection groove corresponding to the initial support bracket 210, and the initial support bracket 210 fits with the connection groove, so that the connection between the reference bracket 100 and the vehicle body is more stable.
[0047] In some embodiments, the reference bracket 100 includes a rotating fixed bracket 220. The rotating fixed bracket 220 is connected to the rear reference bracket 200. The rotating fixed bracket 220 can rotate relative to the rear reference bracket 200, so that the rotating fixed bracket 220 can be fixed to or separated from the vehicle body. The rotating fixed bracket 220 includes a rotating shaft, a rotating rod and a receiving block. Both ends of the rotating shaft are respectively connected to the rotating rod and the receiving block. The rotating rod rotates around the rotating shaft to drive the receiving block to rotate relative to the vehicle body, so that the receiving block moves away from or is fixed to the vehicle body. The upper end of the receiving block in the lifting direction Z has a receiving surface, and the receiving surface can receive the lower end surface of the vehicle body. A spring (not shown in the figure) can also be sleeved on the rotating shaft. When the receiving block rotates close to the vehicle body through the rotating rod and receives the vehicle body, the spring abuts against the vehicle body to fix the vehicle body between the spring and the receiving surface, and further the vehicle body can be fixed.
[0048] In some embodiments, the reference bracket 100 includes a lifting support bracket 230. The lifting support bracket 230 is connected to the rear reference bracket 200 and can be lifted relative to the rear reference bracket 200 to fix or separate the lifting support bracket 230 from the vehicle body. The lifting support bracket 230 is disposed on the cross beam closest to the front reference bracket 110 of the rear reference bracket 200 to share the load of the initial support bracket 210. The number of the lifting support brackets 230 can be two, and the two lifting support brackets 230 are disposed at both ends of the rear reference bracket 200 in the first direction. The lifting support bracket 230 and the initial support bracket 210 jointly support the reference bracket 100 on the vehicle body. The lifting support bracket 230 may also include a slide rail 250 and a slider 260. The slider 260 is indirectly connected to the rear reference bracket 200, and the slide rail 250 can move along the lifting direction Z on the slider 260. A limiting structure may be provided on the slide rail 250 to fix the relative positions of the slide rail 250 and the slider 260. In addition, when connecting the assembly tooling 10 to the vehicle body, one end of the slide rail 250 away from the reference bracket 100 is connected to the vehicle body so that the slide rail 250 can be supported between the vehicle body and the reference bracket 100. When the assembly tooling 10 needs to be removed from the vehicle body after the front end module 300 is installed on the vehicle body, since the slide rail 250 is relatively long, the assembly tooling 10 needs to be moved upward along the lifting direction Z for a long distance to remove the assembly tooling 10. Therefore, the slide rail 250 can be first moved upward along the lifting direction Z and fixed, and then the assembly tooling 10 can be removed. Thus, the lifting support bracket 230 can reduce the travel when the assembly tooling 10 is removed. A plastic cushion block may also be provided at one end of the slide rail 250 in contact with the vehicle body to prevent the slide rail 250 from scratching the vehicle body.
[0049] In some embodiments, the reference bracket 100 includes a fixed base 240. The fixed base 240 is fixedly connected to the rear reference bracket 200, and the lifting support bracket 230 is slidably connected to the fixed base 240. The slider 260 is connected to the fixed base 240, and a plurality of sliders 260 can be connected to the fixed base 240 to make the movement of the slide rail 250 in the lifting direction Z more stable. An elastic member may also be provided on the fixed base 240. One end of the elastic member is connected to the fixed base 240, and the other end can abut against the slide rail 250. Thus, the elastic member can preliminarily fix the slide rail 250 and prevent the slide rail 250 from moving on the slider 260.
[0050] In summary, the detection member 130 and the installation component 120 can be integrated into the reference bracket 100 to form the assembly tooling 10.
