Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automotive checking fixtures, in particular to an automotive sub-instrument panel checking fixture. Background Art

[0002] The automotive sub-instrument panel (also known as the central tunnel) is a mechanism used to control gear shifting and place objects such as teacups. It is located in the center of the cab. Currently, the forming of the sub-instrument panel is mainly completed by injection molding. In actual industrial production, after the sub-instrument panel is injection molded, quality inspection is required to ensure that parameters such as the external contour dimensions, hole diameter distances, and wall thicknesses of the formed sub-instrument panel are within the allowable tolerance range of the drawing. Due to the relatively complex outer contour of the sub-instrument panel and the large number of dimensions to be calibrated, the checking fixture will be very complex. Especially for the fixing work of the sub-instrument panel, it requires special quality inspection personnel to obtain the dimensional data of the product for a relatively long time, and the tools used in the process are rather cumbersome. For this reason, the quality inspection work of the sub-instrument panel has always been difficult to automate and has low efficiency.

[0003] Publication No.: CN220810905U discloses an automotive sub-instrument panel checking fixture, which relates to the technical field of automotive checking fixtures and includes a frame. A transmission member is arranged inside the frame, and a gantry is installed at the upper end of the frame. A bearing plate is detachably installed on the upper surface of the transmission member. Fixing members are installed at the four corners of the upper surface of the bearing plate. A positioning member for positioning the bearing plate is arranged at the inner top of the gantry. In the designed automotive sub-instrument panel checking fixture, the bearing plate is conveyed through the transmission member. When the bearing plate passes through the gantry, the electromagnet attracts the iron block, further causing the iron block to move upward and abut against the contact switch, thereby stopping the motor from working and achieving the accurate positioning of the bearing plate, improving the practicability of the device. When the electromagnet loses magnetism, the iron block separates from the contact switch, and then the motor works, enabling the continuous conveyance of the workpiece.

[0004] However, when the above device is used, the pressing plate slides on the connecting rod through a spring, further causing the pressing plate to press on the sub-instrument panel to fix the sub-instrument panel. However, the pressing plate is arranged above the sub-instrument panel, which is likely to affect the detection of the automotive sub-instrument panel. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an automotive sub-instrument panel checking fixture. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the defect that the pressing plate in the prior art is likely to affect the detection of the automotive sub-instrument panel, and to propose an automotive sub-instrument panel checking fixture.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] An automotive co-driver instrument panel inspection tool, comprising a detection board, above which a detection platform is movably arranged. A number of rotating balls are evenly and movably installed at equal intervals at the bottom end of the detection platform. An installation frame is fixedly installed on the detection board, and a detection camera is fixedly installed at the inner top end of the installation frame. A data transceiver module is fixedly installed on the outer side wall of the installation frame. A driving component for driving the detection platform to move is arranged below the detection board. A fixed clamping plate is fixedly installed at the top end of the detection platform, and a clamping component for cooperating with the fixed clamping plate to clamp the instrument panel is arranged above the detection platform.

[0008] Preferably, the driving component includes a pair of installation blocks symmetrically and fixedly installed at the bottom end of the detection board. A threaded rod is rotatably installed between the pair of installation blocks. A pair of limiting rods are fixedly installed between the pair of installation blocks, and the pair of limiting rods are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the threaded rod. A forward and reverse motor is fixedly installed on the outer side wall of one of the installation blocks, and the output shaft of the forward and reverse motor is coaxially and fixedly connected to the threaded rod.

[0009] A through groove is formed in the center of the detection board. A lead screw block is sleeved on the threaded rod in a threaded manner, and the lead screw block is slidably sleeved on the limiting rod. A connecting block is fixedly installed at the top end of the lead screw block, and the connecting block is slidably arranged in the through groove. The connecting block is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the detection platform.

[0010] For realizing the movement of the detection platform, start the forward and reverse motor. The forward and reverse motor drives the threaded rod to rotate. As the threaded rod rotates, the lead screw block slides on the limiting rod. The lead screw block drives the detection platform to move through the connecting block. When the detection platform moves, the rotating balls rotate to ensure the stability of the movement of the detection platform.

[0011] Preferably, the clamping component includes a fixed box fixedly installed at the top end of the detection platform. A limiting plate is movably arranged in the fixed box. A number of clamping columns are fixedly installed on the side of the limiting plate close to the fixed clamping plate. The clamping columns slide through the fixed box to the outside, and a movable clamping plate is fixedly installed at the end of the clamping columns.

[0012] A sliding column is fixedly installed on the side of the limiting plate away from the fixed clamping plate. The sliding column slides through the fixed box to the outside, and a fixed handle is fixedly installed at the other end of the sliding column. A number of functional springs are arranged in the fixed box, and the functional springs are elastically connected between the outer side wall of the limiting plate and the inner side wall of the fixed box.

[0013] For realizing the clamping of the automotive co-driver instrument panel, pull the fixed handle outwards, so that the sliding column drives the limiting plate to move, compress the functional springs. The limiting plate drives the movable clamping plate to move through the clamping columns. Place the automotive co-driver instrument panel between the movable clamping plate and the fixed clamping plate, and release the fixed handle, so that the movable clamping plate and the fixed clamping plate cooperate to clamp the automotive co-driver instrument panel under the reaction force of the functional springs.

[0014] Preferably, protective rubber pads are fixedly installed on the inner side walls of the fixed clamping plate and the movable clamping plate, a plurality of positioning blocks are fixedly installed at the tops of the fixed clamping plate and the movable clamping plate, and a plurality of support legs are fixedly installed at the bottom end of the detection plate.

[0015] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. By setting a driving component, start the forward and reverse motor, the forward and reverse motor drives the threaded rod to rotate. As the threaded rod rotates, the lead screw block slides on the limiting rod, and the lead screw block drives the detection platform to move through the connecting block. When the detection platform moves, the rotating ball rotates to ensure the stability of the detection platform movement.

[0017] 2. By setting a clamping component, pull the fixed handle outwards, so that the sliding column drives the limiting plate to move, compress the functional spring, the limiting plate drives the movable clamping plate through the clamping column, place the processed automotive passenger-side instrument panel between the movable clamping plate and the fixed clamping plate, and release the fixed handle, so that the movable clamping plate and the fixed clamping plate cooperate to clamp the automotive passenger-side instrument panel under the reaction force of the functional spring.
