[0029] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the utility model is a kind of inspection tool for the rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel. The rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel is arranged in an annular shape, and a first assembly part 10 and a second assembly part 11 are respectively distributed in an annular manner on the outer wall of the rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel, wherein a positioning hole 100 and a detection hole 101 are formed on the first assembly part 10, and a snap-fit groove 110 is formed on the second assembly part 11. The inspection tool comprises: a tooling plate 2, on which an inclined detection platform 20 is arranged, and an inclined hole 200 is opened on the detection platform 20; a plurality of positioning blocks 3, which are spaced apart and distributed on the bottom wall of the detection platform 20, and each positioning block 3 is connected to a positioning column 30 and a positioning guide sleeve 31, and the positioning column 30 is used to be movably inserted into the positioning hole 100. , so that the positioning guide sleeve 31 is movably abutted against the first assembly part 10 and is coaxially arranged with the detection hole 101; a plurality of adjustment mechanisms 4 and detection columns 5, a plurality of adjustment mechanisms 4 are annularly distributed on the top wall of the inclined hole 200, and a detection block 40 is movably provided on the adjustment mechanism 4, and a locking block 400 is formed at the end of the detection block 40; the locking block 400 can be movably inserted into the locking groove 110 when the detection block 40 moves along the inclined direction of the inclined hole 200, so as to detect the processing accuracy of the second assembly part 11, and simultaneously limit the displacement of the rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel relative to the detection platform 20, so that the detection column 5 can pass through the detection hole 101 and be connected with the positioning guide sleeve 31 to detect the processing quality of the detection hole 101.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, since the first assembly part 10 in this embodiment is distributed near the middle of the outer wall of the rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel, and the second assembly part 11 is located at the end of the rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel, this embodiment adopts an inclined manner to place the rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel on the test bench 20. In one clamping, the positioning blocks 3 and the adjustment mechanism 4 located on both sides of the inclined hole 200 can simultaneously complete the processing accuracy inspection of the first assembly part 10 and the second assembly part 11. Specifically, during the placement of the rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel, the positioning column 30 is inserted into the positioning column 30. The positioning guide sleeve 31 is positioned in the positioning hole 100, which plays a certain pre-positioning effect, ensuring that the positioning guide sleeve 31 can abut against the first assembly part 10 and be coaxially arranged with the detection hole 101, thereby providing a guarantee for the accuracy of the subsequent detection column 5 when detecting the detection hole 101; not only that, as the air outlet 1 behind the instrument panel gradually approaches the detection platform 20, the snap-fit block 400 formed at the end of the detection block 40 on the adjustment mechanism 4 can be inserted into the snap-fit groove 110, effectively limiting the displacement of the air outlet 1 behind the instrument panel during the detection process, further improving the stability of the detection column 5 when detecting the inspection hole. Therefore, the inspection tooling utilizes the combined design of the positioning block 3 and the adjustment mechanism 4 to simultaneously realize the detection of the processing accuracy of the first assembly part 10 and the second assembly part 11, effectively ensuring the accuracy and consistency during detection, and improving the detection efficiency and the overall quality of the product.

[0032] The adjustment mechanism 4 also includes: a mounting base 41, which is connected to the detection table 20, and a guide groove 410 is provided in the mounting base 41. The opening direction of the guide groove 410 is consistent with the opening direction of the inclined hole 200, and the detection block 40 is movably engaged in the guide groove 410; an adjustment handle 42, which is connected to the top wall of the detection block 40 and is used to adjust the depth of the engaging block 400 extending into the engaging groove 110.

[0033] like Figures 2 to 3 As shown, when the instrument panel rear air outlet 1 is placed on the inspection table 20, the operator can control the movement of the inspection block 40 within the guide groove 410 by adjusting the handle 42, thereby adjusting the insertion depth of the locking block 400. During this process, the opening direction of the guide groove 410 is consistent with the opening direction of the inclined hole 200, ensuring that the locking block 400 at the end of the inspection block 40 can accurately extend into the locking groove for stable inspection. By observing the movement of the inspection block 40, it can be determined whether the processing quality of the locking groove 110 on the instrument panel rear air outlet 1 meets the user's usage requirements. This overall structure is relatively simple and can be applied to the inspection needs of different models of instrument panel rear air outlet 1, improving the versatility and applicability of the inspection tooling.

[0034] Preferably, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a protrusion 200a is formed outwardly along the inclination direction at the peripheral edge of the bottom wall of the inclined hole 200 in this embodiment. During the installation and placement of the rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel, the end of the rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel can be movably abutted against the protrusion 200a. On the one hand, the rear air outlet 1 of the instrument panel can be positioned at the desired position to be detected. On the other hand, it effectively ensures that the engaging groove 110 is aligned with the detection block 40, which provides a guarantee for the accuracy and stability of the subsequent engaging block 400 when it is inserted into the engaging groove 110 for detection.

[0035] The mounting seat 41 is provided with a connecting hole 411 for mounting the limiting column, which is communicated with the guide groove 410 . A waist-shaped hole 401 is formed in the detection block 40 , and the limiting column is movably inserted in the waist-shaped hole 401 .

[0036] like Figures 2 to 3 As shown, a limiting post (not shown) can be threadedly connected to the connection hole 411, and the end of the limiting post is movably engaged with the waist-shaped hole 401. That is, when the operator adjusts the distance that the detection block 40 extends into the engaging groove 110 by adjusting the handle 42, the engaging engagement between the limiting post and the waist-shaped hole 401 can, on the one hand, guide and position the displacement of the detection block 40, and on the other hand, effectively limit the displacement of the detection block 40 relative to the mounting seat 41, thereby preventing the detection block 40 from being separated from the fixing seat due to large displacement, or even being damaged by collision with the engaging groove 110. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the adjustment block and the guide groove 410 are in a sliding connection. In order to achieve locking and fixing the position of the detection block 40 after adjustment, a locking screw can be used, or a fixing sleeve can be installed in the guide groove 410 to ensure the stability of the detection block 40 when it is in the desired position.

[0037] Preferably, if Figures 2 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a stopper 402 is further provided at the top of the detection block 40. When the detection block 40 is adjusted to the extreme position, the stopper 402 can be used to movably press against the top wall of the mounting seat 41 to further limit the displacement of the detection block 40. While ensuring that the engaging block 400 extends into the engaging groove 110 to achieve stable detection, it effectively avoids the engaging block 400 from causing damage to the first assembly part 10 due to the long insertion distance.

[0038] The detection column 5 includes a detection shaft 50 and a locking block 51 . The detection shaft 50 is used to pass through the detection hole 101 and extend into the positioning guide sleeve 31 , and is movably pressed against the first assembly portion 10 via the locking block 51 .

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, as the above-mentioned locking block 400 extends into the locking groove 110, it realizes the detection function while also limiting the displacement of the instrument panel rear air outlet 1. The positioning column 30 on the positioning block 3 is movably inserted into the positioning hole 100, further ensuring that the instrument panel rear air outlet 1 always maintains the required stability during the detection process. At this time, the detection shaft 50 can be extended into the positioning guide sleeve 31 until the detection shaft 50 completely passes through the detection hole 101, and the locking block 51 is used to be movably pressed against the first assembly part 10. The design of the locking block 51 makes the position of the detection shaft 50 in the detection hole 101 more stable, thereby improving the accuracy and stability during detection.

[0040] Preferably, if Figure 2 As shown, the detection table 20 in this embodiment is also provided with a plurality of placement holes 201 for storing the detection column 5. After the above-mentioned detection is completed, the locking block 51 is loosened to allow the detection shaft 50 to exit the detection hole 101, and the detection column 5 is returned to the placement hole 201 on the detection table 20, so that the operator can conveniently take it out and put it back in place at any time, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0041] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0042] In addition, terms such as "first," "second," and "an" in this utility model are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of the technical features indicated. Therefore, features specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In the description of this utility model, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0043] In this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "connection" and "fixation" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can mean fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; mechanical connection or electrical connection; direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium; internal communication between two elements or interaction between two elements, unless otherwise specified. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0044] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in this field can implement it. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this utility model.
