[0025] The following paragraphs describe the present invention in more detail by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. The advantages and features of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description. It should be noted that the drawings are greatly simplified and not to exact scale, and are intended solely to facilitate and clearly illustrate the embodiments of the present invention.

[0026] The present invention provides a sensor wiring harness socket blind plug positioning installation device, please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 2 , including a base 1 and a rotating unit 2 and a pressing unit 3 arranged on the base 1; the rotating unit 2 is used to carry a positioning mechanism 21, and the rotation direction of the rotating unit 2 is parallel to the upper surface of the base 1; the pressing unit 3 is arranged above the rotating unit 2, and is used to provide pressure to the equipment installed on the positioning mechanism 21, and the force application point of the pressing unit 3 on the rotating unit 2 is the first working position. When the rotating unit 2 rotates to the bottom of the pressing unit 3, the position of the positioning mechanism 21 matches the first position.

[0027] In this embodiment, the device ensures that the positioning mechanism 21 can accurately install the blind plug to the specified socket position through the coordinated use of the rotating unit 2 and the pressing unit 3, with high positioning accuracy, reducing installation errors, improving product quality and reliability, and reducing errors and interference caused by manual positioning; since the rotation direction of the rotating unit 2 is parallel to the upper surface of the base 1 and the force application point of the pressing unit 3 is fixed, the installation position is consistent each time, ensuring the consistency of the product. Through the coordination of the rotating unit 2 and the pressing unit 3, the production efficiency and installation speed are improved.

[0028] In addition, in other specific examples, the device can adapt to different models of sensor harness sockets and blind plugs, has good versatility, and only needs to replace or adjust the positioning mechanism 21, which has good flexibility.

[0029] Furthermore, n positioning mechanisms 21 are provided on the rotating unit 2 , wherein n≧1; the n positioning mechanisms 21 are evenly spaced in the circumferential direction of the rotating unit 2 .

[0030] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 Schematic diagram of two positioning mechanisms 21 being evenly spaced and arranged in the circumferential direction of the rotating unit 2 when n=2.

[0031] Furthermore, when n>1, the rotation unit 2 is configured to rotate at a single angle of .

[0032] In this embodiment, when n>1, the single rotation angle is, ensuring that after each rotation, the next positioning mechanism 21 can be accurately moved to the bottom of the pressing unit 3 and ready for installation, which makes it possible to achieve continuous production.

[0033] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, when n=1, there is no need to limit the single rotation angle. Preferably, the rotation angle is 180 degrees.

[0034] The rotating unit 2 drives the multiple positioning mechanisms 21 to rotate along a rotation direction parallel to the upper surface of the base 1, so that the multiple positioning mechanisms 21 can drive the positioned equipment to be installed to be continuously pressed down and installed.

[0035] Specifically, when one of the positioning mechanisms 21 rotates to the first position, the pressing unit 3 provides pressure to the matching socket and blind plug loaded on the positioning mechanism 21 to achieve installation. At this time, the other positioning mechanisms 21 are in the loading stage or waiting for the pressing stage. After the equipment at the first position completes the pressing installation, as the rotating unit 2 rotates, the positioning mechanism 21 waiting to be installed rotates to the first position for the pressing operation. This device provides a structural basis for achieving continuous production.

[0036] It should be noted that the aforementioned loading phase refers to loading the socket and blind plug onto the positioning mechanism 21. The aforementioned waiting-for-pressing phase occurs when n > 2, with one positioning mechanism 21 rotating to the first position while the remaining positioning mechanisms 21 are in the loading phase or, after the socket and blind plug are loaded, waiting for the first position to become vacant. Multiple positioning mechanisms 21 can simultaneously install multiple sockets, significantly improving installation efficiency.

[0037] In a specific example, the number of sockets processed simultaneously can be adjusted by simply changing the rotation angle of the rotating unit 2 each time without rearranging or adjusting the positioning mechanism 21, thereby reducing the time and complexity of equipment adjustment.

[0038] In addition, the evenly arranged positioning mechanisms 21 can ensure that the installation of each blind plug receives the same attention and precise control, thereby improving the consistency and reliability of the overall installation.

[0039] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism 21 includes a socket positioning mechanism, which is configured to match the sensor harness socket. The socket positioning mechanism accurately matches the sensor harness socket, ensuring the correct position of the socket.

[0040] Furthermore, the socket positioning mechanism is connected to the upper surface of the rotating unit 2 .

[0041] In this embodiment, it can adapt to different types of sensor harness sockets and blind plugs, has good versatility, and only needs to replace or adjust the positioning mechanism 21, which has good flexibility.

[0042] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism 21 also includes a blind plug positioning mechanism, which is connected to the sensor harness socket that matches the socket positioning mechanism.

[0043] Furthermore, the blind plug positioning mechanism is configured to guide the blind plug to be inserted into the sensor harness socket.

[0044] Specifically, the socket positioning mechanism is connected to the upper surface of the rotating unit 2 and matches the shape and size of the sensor harness socket.

[0045] The blind plug positioning mechanism matches the blind plug shape of the wiring harness socket to ensure that the blind plug is correctly and quickly inserted into the sensor wiring harness socket matched on the socket positioning mechanism.

[0046] In one specific example, the socket positioning mechanism connects to the socket using a plug-in clip-on connection. The blind plug positioning mechanism connects to the matching sensor wiring harness socket on the socket positioning mechanism and is configured to mate with the blind plug on the wiring harness socket. The blind plug positioning mechanism is a guide groove or guide hole that matches the shape of the blind plug.

[0047] In another specific example, the socket positioning mechanism may include a spring-loaded clamping jaw, each of which has a groove inside that matches the contour of the socket to ensure that the socket can be securely inserted. The blind plug positioning mechanism includes a guide sleeve, the inner shape of which matches the outer shape of the blind plug to guide the blind plug into the socket accurately.

[0048] Furthermore, the pressing unit 3 and the rotating unit 2 have a predetermined distance in the vertical direction.

[0049] It should be noted that, before pressing down, the pressing unit 3 has a first predetermined vertical spacing from the rotating unit 2, which is sufficient to accommodate the device to be installed. Upon completion of the pressing, the pressing unit 3 has a second predetermined vertical spacing from the rotating unit 2. After the pressing is complete, the pressing unit 3 returns to the first predetermined spacing from the rotating unit 2.

[0050] Furthermore, the pressing unit 3 and the rotating unit 2 are respectively detachably connected to the base 1 .

[0051] Taking the device having two positioning mechanisms, the first positioning mechanism and the second positioning mechanism, as an example, the working process of the blind plug positioning installation device for the sensor harness socket proposed in this embodiment is as follows:

[0052] 1. Place the first socket in the first socket positioning mechanism of the first positioning mechanism at the loading position;

[0053] 2. Place the first blind plug positioning mechanism on the first socket, and place the first blind plug in the first blind plug positioning mechanism of the first positioning mechanism;

[0054] 3. Press the start switch with both hands at the same time, the rotating unit 2 rotates 180 degrees, and the first positioning mechanism carries the first socket and the first blind plug to the first position;

[0055] 4. Press down the pressing unit 3 to fix the first blind plug on the first socket;

[0056] 5. While step 4 is being performed, place the second socket in the second socket positioning mechanism of the second positioning mechanism; place the second blind plug in the second blind plug positioning mechanism of the second positioning mechanism;

[0057] 6. Press the start switch with both hands at the same time, the rotating unit 2 rotates 180 degrees, and the second positioning mechanism carries the second socket and the second blind plug to rotate to the first position;

[0058] 7. The first positioning mechanism returns to the loading position and takes out the first group of products that have been installed;

[0059] 8. Repeat steps 1-7.
