[0026] See also Figures 1 to 2As shown, the present invention provides a fixture for painting an automotive air-conditioning vent panel, comprising: a support frame 1 and a mounting frame 2. The mounting frame 2 is connected to the support frame 1. The mounting frame 2 includes a plurality of slots 21 and a plurality of clamping members 3 arranged in an array. Each pair of slots 21 and a clamping member 3 form a group for clamping an automotive air-conditioning vent panel. The clamping members 3 in the same group are located between two slots 21. The slots 21 are used to accommodate the ends of the automotive air-conditioning vent panel, and the clamping members 3 are used to clamp the middle portion of the automotive air-conditioning vent panel. In this embodiment, the support frame 1 and the mounting frame 2 are both made of metal. The support frame 1 and the mounting frame 2 can be fixedly connected by welding. The ends of the two slots 21 in each group that are adjacent to each other are open. In actual production, the rotating shafts at both ends of the air outlet plate of an automobile air conditioner are inserted into the slots 21. The clamping member 3 clamps the lower edge of the middle portion of the air outlet plate. The slots 21 are sealed with traceless tape to prevent paint from spraying onto the rotating shafts. The entire fixture is then placed on a conveyor belt and transported to the painting equipment for painting. The support frame 1 props up the mounting frame 2, allowing the air outlet plate to be painted from all directions. By providing multiple slots 21 and multiple clamping members 3, this fixture for painting automobile air outlet plates can simultaneously clamp multiple air outlet plates for painting, improving painting efficiency.

[0027] See also Figure 1 As shown, support frame 1 includes a base 11, support columns 12, and connecting rods 13. The lower end of support column 12 is connected to base 11, and the upper end of support column 12 is connected to connecting rod 13. Mounting frame 2 is mounted on connecting rod 13. In this embodiment, base 11 is formed by four metal rods fixedly connected to form a rectangular frame, two parallel metal rods of which are mounted on two other parallel metal rods. When support frame 1 is placed on a workbench, conveyor belt, or other flat surface, only the bottom two parallel metal rods are in contact with the workbench, making support frame 1 more stable. Support columns 12 and connecting rod 13 cooperate to support mounting frame 2 to a certain height, which facilitates the multi-directional painting of the air outlet plate clamped to mounting frame 2.

[0028] See also Figure 1 As shown, there are at least four support columns 12, each located at the four corners of the base 11. In this embodiment, there are six support columns 12, each group of three. The two groups of support columns 12 are spaced apart and arranged on two parallel metal rods on top of the base 11. The support columns 12 are perpendicular to the base 11. Providing multiple support columns 12 can increase the support strength and ensure that the mounting frame 2 can simultaneously clamp multiple air outlet plates.

[0029] See also Figure 1As shown, there are two connecting rods 13, which are arranged in parallel, and each connecting rod 13 is connected to at least two support columns 12. In this embodiment, each connecting rod 13 is connected to a corresponding group of support columns 12. The two ends of a connecting rod 13 are perpendicularly connected to the two support columns 12 in the same group, and the remaining support column 12 in the same group is perpendicularly connected to the middle of this connecting rod 13. This can enhance the strength of the connecting rod 13, prevent the middle portion of the connecting rod 13 from being bent and deformed by the mounting frame 2, and improve the service life of the support frame 1.

[0030] See also Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the mounting frame 2 includes a plurality of mounting rods 22, a plurality of limiting rods 23 and a plurality of pad rods 24, all of which are parallel to the horizontal plane. The plurality of mounting rods 22 are arranged and mounted on the connecting rod 13, the plurality of limiting rods 23 are arranged and mounted on the plurality of pad rods 24, and the plurality of pad rods 24 are arranged and mounted on the plurality of mounting rods 22. The mounting rods 22 are perpendicular to the connecting rod 13, and the pad rods 24 are respectively perpendicular to the mounting rods 22 and the limiting rods 23. The limiting rods 23 and the mounting rods 22 are respectively staggered above and below the pad rods 24. In this embodiment, the two ends of the mounting rod 22 are respectively connected to the two connecting rods 13. The number of mounting rods 22 is a multiple of 2 and is in a group of two. Each group of mounting rods 22 is located between two adjacent limiting rods 23. The number of pad rods 24 is two. The two pad rods 24 are respectively located at the two ends of the mounting rod 22. The two ends of multiple limiting rods 23 are respectively supported on the two pad rods 24. The pad rods 24 separate the mounting rod 22 from the limiting rod 23 to form a height difference, so that the clamping member 3 and the slot 21 form a height difference, so as to adapt to the shape of the air outlet plate for clamping.

[0031] See also Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the slots 21 are recessed downward from the upper surface of the limiting rods 23. Two slots 21 in the same group are provided on adjacent limiting rods 23, located on adjacent sides. In this embodiment, the inner sidewalls of the slots 21 can be configured as curved surfaces that align with the rotation axis of the air outlet plate. The adjacent ends of the two slots 21 in each group are open. Multiple groups of slots 21 are arranged on adjacent limiting rods 23 to accommodate multiple air outlet plates. To save material costs, except for the two limiting rods 23 at the ends, the remaining limiting rods 23 are provided with two different groups of slots 21.

[0032] See also Figure 2As shown, the clamping member 3 includes a first clamping plate 31, a second clamping plate 32, a bolt 33, and a nut 34. The first clamping plate 31 is fixedly mounted on the mounting rod 22. The second clamping plate 32 is parallel to the first clamping plate 31 and is movably connected to the first clamping plate 31 via the bolt 33. The bolt 33 is fixedly connected to the first clamping plate 31. The nut 34 is threadedly connected to the bolt 33 and is used to adjust the second clamping plate 32 away from or closer to the first clamping plate 31. In this embodiment, the first clamping plate 31 is welded to the mounting rod 22. Each set of mounting rods 22 is provided with a plurality of first clamping plates 31. One end of the bolt 33 is welded to the first clamping plate 31. The second clamping plate 32 is provided with a through hole for the bolt 33 to pass through. The nut 34 is located on the side of the second clamping plate 32 away from the first clamping plate 31. By turning the nut 34 to adjust the position of the nut 34 on the bolt 33, the tightness between the first clamping plate 31 and the second clamping plate 32 can be adjusted, thereby loosening or clamping the air outlet plate. To enhance the stability of the second clamping plates 32, two bolts 33 are welded to each first clamping plate 31, with the two bolts 33 being at the same height. Each second clamping plate 32 is provided with two through-holes and equipped with two nuts 34. The first and second clamping plates 31 and 32 only clamp the lower edge of the air outlet plate, preventing the air outlet plate from shaking during painting and affecting the paint finish.

[0033] In summary, the present invention, by providing a support frame 1 and a mounting frame 2, and providing multiple slots 21 on the mounting frame 2 to cooperate with multiple clamping members 3, can simultaneously clamp multiple air outlet panels for painting, thereby improving the efficiency of the painting process. In addition, the fixture for painting automobile air conditioner air outlet panels has a simple structure and low production cost, and multiple fixtures can be configured for replacement, further improving the efficiency of the painting process.

[0034] It is understandable that those skilled in the art can make equivalent substitutions or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, and all these changes or substitutions should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the present invention.
