The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is how to improve the assembly efficiency of the central shaft of the adjuster.

[0004] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0005] A riveting equipment for the central shaft of an automobile seat adjuster includes a frame and a sliding seat movably arranged on the frame up and down. It is characterized in that a lower riveting head is arranged on the frame. The upper end of the lower riveting head has an annular step portion and a positioning hole opened vertically inside the annular step portion. A vertically arranged limiting column and an upper riveting head opposite to the lower riveting head up and down are arranged on the sliding seat. A floating block that can move up and down relative to the lower riveting head is sleeved on the lower riveting head. There is a moving distance between the lower end of the floating block and the frame, and the two are connected by an elastic telescopic member.

[0006] During operation, the worker only needs to place the pre-connected central shaft and the adjuster body on the lower riveting head. Then the worker starts the booster cylinder. The booster cylinder drives the sliding seat to move downward. The upper riveting head and the two limiting columns on the sliding seat move downward synchronously. During the downward movement, the upper riveting head presses the central shaft into the adjuster body until the limiting column can no longer move downward. At this time, the floating block abuts against the frame, and the lower riveting head squeezes and flattens the square part below the central shaft to complete the pressing and squeezing of the central shaft, thus completing the riveting of the central shaft of the adjuster and realizing the automation of the adjuster assembly, and further improving the assembly efficiency of the central shaft of the adjuster;

[0007] At the same time, during the downward movement of the floating block, it is also always subjected to the radial thrust of the elastic telescopic member, so that the central shaft will not be displaced or tilted during the pressing process, thereby improving the pressing accuracy.

[0008] In the above-mentioned riveting device for the central axis of the car seat recliner, the floating block is provided with a guide hole with a limiting portion on the inner wall in the vertical direction, the frame is provided with a clearance hole arranged opposite to the guide hole, a guide pin whose lower end is fixedly connected to the frame is arranged in the guide hole, the guide pin is sleeved with the elastic telescopic member, the upper end of the elastic telescopic member abuts against the limiting portion, the lower end of the elastic telescopic member abuts against the bottom wall of the clearance hole, and under the action of the elastic telescopic member, the limiting portion abuts against the upper end of the guide pin. The above structure enables the floating block to move up and down better relative to the lower rivet head, and the floating block will not separate from the frame.

[0009] In the above-mentioned riveting device for the central axis of the car seat recliner, the elastic telescopic parts are multiple and are respectively arranged along the circumference of the floating block, so that the number and arrangement positions of the elastic telescopic parts and guide pins are more reasonable, so that the floating block can float up and down better.

The frame has a lifting hole connected to the positioning hole up and down, and the upper end of the lifting block has a lifting column, and the lifting column can be inserted into the lifting hole in a manner that it can move up and down. After the assembly is completed, the lifting block can push the recliner upward by abutting against the central axis, so that it is convenient for workers to take the assembled recliner.

[0011] In the above-mentioned riveting device for the central axis of the car seat recliner, the frame also has a limit hole and a mounting hole opened vertically, the ejector block can be arranged in the limit hole so as to move up and down, a spring is arranged in the mounting hole, the upper end of the spring abuts against the lower end of the ejector block, and under the action of the spring, the ejector block can move upward relative to the lower rivet head and abut against the hole wall of the limit hole. After the assembly is completed, the ejector block can automatically eject the recliner upward, so that it is more convenient for workers to take the assembled recliner.

[0012] In the above-mentioned riveting device for the central axis of the car seat recliner, the top material block is in the shape of a long strip, the limit blocks are provided in two and are respectively arranged on the sides of the two ends of the top material block, and the springs are provided in multiple and are respectively arranged along the length direction of the top material block. The above-mentioned structure enables the top material block to move up and down better.

[0013] In the above-mentioned riveting device for the central axis of the car seat recliner, there are two limit posts, which are respectively located above the two ends of the top material block, so that the number and setting positions of the limit posts are more reasonable, so that the top material block can be pressed down better to force it to overcome the restoring force of the spring and move downward.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the riveting equipment for the central shaft of the vehicle seat adjuster are as follows: The riveting equipment for the central shaft of the vehicle seat adjuster can simultaneously complete two processes, namely, pressing the central shaft of the adjuster into place and squeezing and flattening (riveting open) the square part below the central shaft, thereby realizing the automation of the adjuster assembly and further improving the assembly efficiency of the central shaft of the adjuster.

[0027] The following describes the working principle of the riveting equipment for the center axis of the car seat recliner:

[0028] First, the worker places the pre-connected central shaft and the adjuster body on the lower riveting head 3, where the adjuster body abuts against the floating block 6, and the central shaft is inserted into the positioning hole 3b of the lower riveting head 3 (refer to Figure 4 ). The annular step portion 3a forms a recessed space for the adjuster body to give way when it abuts against the floating block 6. Subsequently, the worker activates the booster cylinder. The booster cylinder arranged on the frame 1 drives the sliding seat 2 to move downward along the four guide rails of the frame 1. The upper riveting head 5 and the two limit posts 4 on the sliding seat 2 move downward synchronously. During the downward movement of the upper riveting head 5, the central shaft is pressed into the adjuster body. When the two limit posts 4 contact the ejector block 9, the booster cylinder boosts pressure, and the two limit posts 4 press down the ejector block 9 to force the ejector block 9 to move downward, enabling the upper riveting head 5 to continue pressing down the central shaft. Since the central shaft has been completely pressed into the adjuster body at this time, the central shaft can drive the adjuster body to move downward synchronously, and the adjuster body in turn forces the floating block 6 to move downward synchronously until the floating block 6 abuts against the frame 1. At this time, the lower riveting head squeezes and flattens the square part below the central shaft to complete the pressing and squeezing and flattening of the central shaft, thus completing the riveting of the adjuster central shaft;

[0029] Then, the booster cylinder drives the sliding seat 2 to move upward. The upper riveting head 5 and the two limit posts 4 move upward synchronously with the sliding seat 2. The two limit posts 4 disengage from the contact with the ejector block 9, and the upper riveting head 5 disengages from the contact with the central shaft. The ejector block 9 moves upward under the action of the spring 11. The ejector post 9a of the ejector block 9 located in the ejector hole 1b pushes the central shaft upward. At the same time, the floating block 6 moves upward under the action of the elastic telescopic member 7 and drives the adjuster to move upward synchronously, thus facilitating the worker to take the processed adjuster.
