[0002] The flat fork is an important structure on electric two-wheeled vehicles, used to connect the main body of the vehicle and the rear wheel. Electric vehicles with a single-arm flat fork are electric vehicles whose rear flat fork has only one arm to fix the rear wheel, bear the weight of the vehicle body, bear the power of the rear wheel drive and the pulling force when braking the rear wheel, maintain the stability of the vehicle body, and the use of a single-arm flat fork makes it easy to disassemble the rear wheel. The produced single-arm flat fork requires a special inspection fixture to detect whether the coaxiality of the flat fork head tube, the parallelism of the flat fork head tube axis and the axis of the motor mounting hole meet the standards. In the existing technology, a manual pusher is usually used to fix the single-arm flat fork on the inspection fixture, but this fixing method cannot guarantee the consistency of the clamping state of the product each time, which is easy to increase the error, thereby affecting the product's qualification rate. In addition, the existing inspection fixture is also unable to verify the position of each installation point of the flat fork, resulting in deviations in the depth of the installation points of each batch of products.

[0019] Figure 1 The present invention shows a specific embodiment of a single-arm flat fork inspection fixture, comprising a base plate 1, a fixing device and a calibration device 2 mounted on the base plate 1. The fixing device includes a pushing cylinder 3, a rotary clamping cylinder 4, a flat fork head tube left limiter 5, a first flat fork placement height block 6, and a second flat fork placement height block 7. The pushing cylinder 3 and the flat fork head tube left limiter 5 are positioned opposite each other, the first flat fork placement height block 6 is positioned between the pushing cylinder 3 and the flat fork head tube left limiter 5, the second flat fork placement height block 7 is positioned at the rear end of a single-arm flat fork 8, and the rotary clamping cylinder 4 is positioned to the side of the single-arm flat fork 8. When the front end of the single-arm flat fork 8 is placed on the first flat fork placement equal height block 6 and the rear end is placed on the second flat fork placement equal height block 7, the pushing cylinder 3 and the flat fork head tube left limit 5 cooperate to fix the single-arm flat fork 8 in the horizontal direction, and the rotating clamping cylinder 4, the first flat fork placement equal height block 6 and the second flat fork placement equal height block 7 cooperate to fix the single-arm flat fork 8 in the vertical direction. The calibration devices are respectively arranged at the flat fork guard mounting point, rear wheel mudplate mounting point, shock absorber mounting point, motor mounting shaft hole, and disc brake column of the single-arm flat fork 8.

[0020] like Figure 2As shown, each calibration device 2 includes a column 21, a handle 22, a calibration pin 23, a limiting slot 24, and a limiting flange 25. The bottom of the column 21 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1, and the handle 22 is horizontally movably connected to the upper end of the column 21. The calibration pin 23 is connected to the end of the handle 22 facing the single-arm flat fork 8, and the shape and size of the calibration pin 23 are adapted to the shape and size of the corresponding calibration installation point hole 9. The limiting flange 25 is connected to the rear end of the handle 22, and the limiting slot 24 is connected to the column 21. The limiting slot 24 is provided with a groove 26 that matches the limiting flange 25. The diameter of the calibration pin 23 is the difference between the diameter of the corresponding installation point hole 9 and the tolerance limit of the diameter of the installation point hole. The width of the groove 26 is the sum of the thickness of the limiting flange 25 and the position tolerance of the corresponding installation point hole 9.

[0021] Preferably, the pushing cylinder 3 and the rotary clamping cylinder 4 are controlled by an air valve switch 10 provided on the base plate 1 , and a handle 11 is provided on the base plate 1 for easy transportation.

[0022] The specific working process of the above embodiment is as follows:

[0023] First, control the air valve switch 10 to open the pushing cylinder 3 and the rotary clamping cylinder 4, and place the processed single-arm flat fork 8 horizontally into the inspection fixture, wherein the head tube at the front end of the single-arm flat fork 8 is placed on the first flat fork placement equal height block 6, and the rear end is placed on the second flat fork placement equal height block 7. Then control the air valve switch 10 to start the pushing cylinder 3 and the rotary clamping cylinder 4, so that they press the single-arm flat fork 8 to the predetermined position from the horizontal direction and the vertical direction respectively. After confirming that the single-arm flat fork 8 is not loose, push and pull the handle 22 of each calibration device 2 until the limit flange 25 is just stuck in the groove 26 on the limit slot 24, so as to check whether there is any error in the front and rear position of the plane where each installation point hole 9 is located; the calibration pin 23 at the front end of the handle 22 is used to check whether the shape, size and coaxiality of each installation point hole 9 meet the standard.
