Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive repair tools, and in particular to a clamping tool for disassembling and assembling the internal wiring harness of a rearview mirror. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of automotive intelligent technology, 360-degree panoramic cameras have become an important safety aid device for modern cars. Our company collaborated with Geely Automobile to integrate advanced 360-degree camera technology into the rearview mirror of the Bin Yue model, greatly improving driving safety and convenience. However, the disassembly and reassembly of the 360-degree camera became a challenging issue during vehicle production, assembly, and subsequent maintenance.

[0003] In existing technology, 360-degree cameras need to be installed inside the side mirrors first, and then the mirror assembly is assembled to the vehicle body. If camera-related problems occur during road testing or end-customer use, the entire mirror assembly needs to be removed to extract the 360-degree camera for inspection or replacement. Since the camera wiring harness is pre-embedded inside the mirror assembly, the disassembly and assembly process is cumbersome and risky; slight carelessness can damage the wiring harness or cause terminals to detach, increasing repair time and costs. Therefore, a clamping tool is needed to quickly grasp the camera wiring harness pre-embedded inside the mirror assembly. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems in the prior art, this application proposes a clamping tool for disassembling and assembling the internal wiring harness of a rearview mirror. This tool can quickly clamp the camera wiring harness embedded inside the rearview mirror assembly, reducing the risk of damaging the wiring harness or causing the terminals to fall off, thereby reducing maintenance time and costs.

[0005] This utility model provides a clamping tool for disassembling and assembling the internal wiring harness of a rearview mirror. The clamping tool includes an operating lever, one end of which is equipped with a clamping hook and a clamping rod rotatably mounted thereon. A tension spring is provided between the clamping rod and the clamping hook. The tension spring can drive the clamping rod to press against the camera wiring harness inside the clamping hook and cooperate with the clamping hook to clamp the camera wiring harness. A drive rope is connected to the clamping rod. A rotating mechanism is rotatably mounted on the other end of the operating lever. The end of the drive rope is wound around the rotating mechanism. Rotation of the rotating mechanism can tighten the drive rope to make the clamping rod rotate away from the clamping hook, or release the drive rope to make the clamping rod rotate closer to the clamping hook under the action of the tension spring.

[0006] As a further improvement to the above technical solution:

[0007] The aforementioned clamping tool for disassembling and assembling the internal wiring harness of the rearview mirror further includes a rotating mechanism comprising a rotating rod and a rotating wheel. The rotating rod is rotatably mounted on the operating rod, and the rotating wheel is mounted on the end of the rotating rod. The rotating wheel can drive the rotating rod to rotate, and the end of the driving rope is wound around the rotating rod.

It can quickly clamp the camera wiring harness embedded inside the rearview mirror assembly, reducing the risk of damaging the wiring harness or causing the terminals to fall off, thereby reducing maintenance time and costs.

[0027] Please see Figure 1The present invention provides a clamping tool 100 for disassembling and assembling the internal wiring harness of a rearview mirror. The clamping tool 100 includes an operating lever 110, one end of which is equipped with a clamping hook 120 and a rotatably mounted clamping rod 130. A tension spring 140 is provided between the clamping rod 130 and the clamping hook 120. The tension spring 140 can drive the clamping rod 130 to press against the camera wiring harness inside the clamping hook 120, and... The clamping rod 130 is connected to a drive rope 150 to grip the camera cable harness. The other end of the operating rod 110 is rotatably mounted with a rotating mechanism 160. The end of the drive rope 150 is wound around the rotating mechanism 160. The rotation of the rotating mechanism 160 can tighten the drive rope 150 to make the clamping rod 130 rotate away from the gripping hook 120, or release the drive rope 150 to make the clamping rod 130 rotate closer to the gripping hook 120 under the action of the tension spring 140.

[0028] When it is necessary to clamp the camera wiring harness embedded inside the rearview mirror assembly, firstly, drive the rotating mechanism 160 to rotate and tighten the drive rope 150 so that the clamping rod 130 rotates away from the clamping hook 120. Then, the operating lever 110 extends the clamping hook 120 into the rearview mirror assembly and hooks the camera wiring harness. Then, drive the rotating mechanism 160 to rotate in the opposite direction to release the drive rope 150 so that the clamping rod 130 rotates towards the clamping hook 120 under the action of the tension spring 140. The tension spring 140 drives the clamping rod 130 to press against the camera wiring harness inside the clamping hook 120 and cooperate with the clamping hook 120 to clamp the camera wiring harness. Finally, the operating lever 110 pulls the clamped camera wiring harness out from inside the rearview mirror assembly.

[0029] The clamping tool 100 provided in this embodiment of the utility model for disassembling and assembling the internal wiring harness of the rearview mirror can quickly clamp the camera wiring harness embedded inside the rearview mirror assembly, reducing the risk of damaging the wiring harness or causing the terminals to fall off, thereby reducing maintenance time and cost.

[0030] The present invention provides a clamping tool 100 for disassembling and assembling the internal wiring harness of a rearview mirror. Specifically, the rotating mechanism 160 includes a rotating rod and a rotating wheel. The rotating rod is rotatably mounted on the operating rod 110, and the rotating wheel is mounted on the end of the rotating rod. The rotating wheel can drive the rotating rod to rotate, and the end of the driving rope 150 is wound around the rotating rod. When it is necessary to clamp the camera wiring harness embedded inside the rearview mirror assembly, first drive the rotating wheel to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating rod to tighten the drive rope 150 so that the clamping rod 130 rotates away from the clamping hook 120. Then, the clamping hook 120 is extended into the rearview mirror assembly and hooked by the operating rod 110. Then, drive the rotating wheel to rotate in the opposite direction, which in turn drives the rotating rod to rotate in the opposite direction to release the drive rope 150 so that the clamping rod 130 rotates towards the clamping hook 120 under the action of the tension spring 140. The tension spring 140 drives the clamping rod 130 to press against the camera wiring harness inside the clamping hook 120 and cooperate with the clamping hook 120 to clamp the camera wiring harness. Finally, the clamped camera wiring harness is pulled out from inside the rearview mirror assembly by the operating rod 110.
