Detailed implementation manners

[0027] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present utility model, the following further detailed description is made with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that those skilled in the art can implement it according to the description in the specification.

[0028] It should be noted that in the description of the present utility model, the orientation or positional relationships indicated by the terms "horizontal", "longitudinal", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.

[0029] Such as Figures 1 to 7As shown in the figure, the present utility model provides a new type of battery pack tray inspection tool, which includes an inspection tool base 1 and an inspection tool body 2. The product 3 to be detected is placed on the inspection tool base 1, and the inspection tool body 2 is placed on the product 3 to be detected. Positioning mechanisms 4 are provided on both opposite sides of the inspection tool body 2, which include vertical positioning pins 9. When the inspection tool body 2 is placed on the product 3 to be detected, the inspection tool body 2 is positioned by the positioning pins 9 just fitting into the positioning holes of the product 3 to be detected. A plurality of vertically telescopic detection units 5 are also provided on the inspection tool body 2, which respectively correspond to a plurality of product holes on the product 3 to be detected and are used to detect the positions of the product holes. A plurality of dial indicators 6 are also provided on the inspection tool body 2, which are used to detect the flatness of the product 3 to be detected.

[0030] In the initial state, the inspection tool body 2 is placed on the inspection tool base 1. When it is necessary to detect the product 3 to be detected, the inspection tool body 2 is picked up from the inspection tool base 1, and then the product 3 to be detected is placed on the inspection tool base 1. The inspection tool base 1 has a large supporting plane that can stably support the product 3 to be detected and the inspection tool body 2. Then the inspection tool body 2 is placed down and the positioning pins 9 of the positioning mechanism 4 are inserted into the positioning holes of the product 3 to be detected. The detection units 5 are used to detect the positions of the product holes of the product 3 to be detected, and at the same time, the dial indicators 6 are used to detect the flatness of the product 3 to be detected. After the inspection tool body 2 is placed on the inspection tool base 1 and positioned, the detection units 5 automatically correspond to the corresponding product holes one by one. If there is an error in the position of the product holes, the detection units 5 will not enter the product holes, and the detection units 5 will be pushed up by the surface of the product 3 to be detected. By observing the state of the detection units 5, it can be judged whether there are problems such as dimensional positions of the product holes in the product 3 to be detected. After the inspection tool body 2 is placed on the inspection tool base 1 and positioned, the plurality of dial indicators 6 contact the surface of the product 3 to be detected. By observing and recording the readings of the plurality of dial indicators 6, and then judging whether the size of the difference between the readings is within the set error range, so as to judge whether the flatness of the product 3 to be detected meets the product requirements.

[0031] In another technical solution, as Figures 2 to 4 shown, the positioning mechanism 4 includes a positioning block 8 fixedly arranged on the inspection tool body 2 and a positioning pin 9 arranged on the bottom surface of the positioning block 8. The positioning pins 9 on both sides of the inspection tool body 2 are respectively a circular main positioning pin 9 and a diamond-shaped secondary positioning pin 9. The bottom end of the positioning pin 9 is provided with a conical guiding structure.

[0032] The positioning pins 9 are divided into a circular main positioning pin 9 and a diamond-shaped secondary positioning pin 9, rather than being the same on both sides, which can be used to distinguish the placement direction of the inspection tool body 2.

[0033] In another technical solution, the positioning block 8 is in an inverted L shape, which just closely adheres to the outer side wall of the product 3 to be detected to limit the product 3 to be detected, thereby improving the detection accuracy.

[0034] In another technical solution, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the inspection tool body 2 is a square frame structure. Multiple connecting plates 10 are arranged on the outer side of the square frame structure for installing the detection units 5. A vertical channel 11 is arranged at the position corresponding to each detection unit 5 on the connecting plate 10. Limiting plates 12 with through holes are arranged on both the top surface and the bottom surface thereof. The detection unit 5 includes a detection column 13 which vertically penetrates downward through the vertical channel 11. An annular baffle 14 is arranged at the lower part of the detection column 13, which restricts the detection column 13 from falling out of the through hole. A spring 15 is also sleeved on the detection column 13, the lower end of which is fixed on the detection column 13, and the upper end of the spring 15 is fixed on the limiting plate 12 on the top surface of the vertical channel 11.

[0035] If the positions of the product holes meet the design requirements, the detection units 5 automatically cooperate with the corresponding product holes one by one. In the natural state, the detection column 13 freely falls until the annular baffle 14 closely adheres to the limiting plate 12 on the bottom surface of the vertical channel 11, and the spring 15 is also in a free state, and the detection column 13 keeps its position unchanged. If there are errors in the positions of some product holes, the corresponding detection units 5 will not enter the product holes, and the detection columns 13 of the detection units 5 will be pushed upward by the surface of the product 3 to be detected, thereby compressing the spring 15, and the top of the detection column 13 also moves upward beyond the tops of the other detection columns 13. By observing the top position of the detection column 13, it can be judged whether there are problems such as dimensional positions of the product holes in the product 3 to be detected.

[0036] In another technical solution, multiple inverted L-shaped plates are further arranged on the outer side of the connecting plate 10, which just closely adhere to the outer wall surface of the product 3 to be detected to limit the product 3 to be detected.

[0037] In another technical solution, such as Figure 7 shown, multiple dial indicators 6 are arranged inside the square frame structure. Inside the square frame structure, inspection frame plates 16 arranged in a horizontal and vertical cross manner are provided, and multiple dial indicators 6 are installed thereon at intervals.

[0038] As needed, the square frame structure is composed of two square structures combined together, with greater structural strength. The inspection frame plate 16 can be composed of multiple basic units and is detachably combined and connected inside the square structure by bolts. The inspection frame plate 16 can be arranged inside one of the square structures, and then installed into the other square structure for flatness inspection after inspection. It can also be arranged with inspection frame plates 16 inside both square structures to conduct flatness inspection of the entire product simultaneously. When the inspection frame plate 16 is only arranged inside one of the square structures, a detachable crossbeam can be arranged inside the other square structure by bolts, and a handle is arranged to assist in picking up and putting down the jig body 2. At the same time, a handle is also arranged on the inspection frame plate 16 to cooperate to assist in picking up and putting down the jig body 2.

[0039] In another technical solution, casters 7 for walking are arranged at the bottom of the jig base 1, which is convenient for movement for space planning. The jig base 1 is a frame support structure.

[0040] In another technical solution, handling handles 17 are further arranged on both sides of the jig body 2, and a pair is arranged on each side of the jig body 2. The handling handles 17 extend horizontally outwards to the outside of the jig body 2.

[0041] It can be understood that the present utility model is described through some embodiments. Those skilled in the art know that without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model, various changes or equivalent replacements can be made to these features and embodiments. Although the implementation solutions of the present utility model are disclosed as above, it is not limited to only the applications listed in the description and implementation manners. It can be fully applied to various fields suitable for the present utility model. For those familiar with the field, additional modifications can be easily achieved. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and the equivalent scope, the present utility model is not limited to specific details and the illustrations shown and described here.
