Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of parts processing and measurement technology, specifically to a testing tool for automotive connector limit rings. Background Technology

[0002] When measuring the thickness of bulges in automotive connectors, the thickness of the bulges needs to be controlled within a certain range. The thickness cannot exceed this range, nor can it be lower than this range. Directly measuring the thickness with a testing tool requires a series of steps, including alignment, clamping, reading, and removal. This results in low efficiency when measuring the thickness of bulges in automotive connectors and cannot meet the needs of a large number of automotive connector bulge measurement operations. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This utility model provides a detection tool for automotive connector limiting rings, the purpose of which is to solve the technical problem of low measurement efficiency of automotive structural bulges in the prior art.

[0005] Furthermore, the limiting groove is a concave semi-circular groove, and the end of the measuring block near the positioning plate is an arc surface.

[0006] Furthermore, the base has limiting grooves on both sides; the measuring block is slidably connected to the limiting grooves.

[0007] Furthermore, an adjustment component is provided inside the base; a groove is provided on the upper surface of the base to connect the adjustment component and the measuring block; the bottom of each measuring block is connected to the adjustment component.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0013] This utility model provides a testing tool for a vehicle connector limiting ring.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] like Figure 1-2As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a testing tool for a vehicle connector limiting ring, including a base 1, a positioning plate 2 fixedly disposed on the upper center of the base 1, adjustment spaces 3 on both sides of the upper surface of the base 1, and measuring blocks 4 disposed on the upper surface of the base 1 corresponding to the two adjustment spaces 3. Limit grooves 9 are formed on both the positioning plate 2 and the measuring blocks 4. A first detection groove 5 and a second detection groove 6 are formed between the opposing surfaces of the two measuring blocks 4 and the two sides of the positioning plate 2. The widths of the first detection groove 5 and the second detection groove 6 are different. The width is set to correspond to the maximum thickness range of the automotive connector bulge. If the automotive connector bulge cannot be placed into the first detection slot 5, it indicates that the thickness exceeds the limit. The width of the second detection slot 6 is set to be lower than the minimum thickness of the automotive connector bulge. If the automotive connector bulge can be placed into the second detection slot 6, it indicates that the thickness is below the minimum thickness range, thus realizing a rapid thickness measurement operation for the automotive connector bulge. The bottom sides of the two measuring blocks 4 are provided with adjustment components 8 inside the base 1. Both adjustment components 8 include adjustment slots 81, and the two adjustment slots 81 are respectively opened on the left and right sides inside the base 1. Each adjusting groove 81 has a guide rod 82 rotatably mounted within it via bearings. The middle of each guide rod 82 has a spiral thread and is threadedly connected to a guide sleeve 83. The top ends of each guide sleeve 83 are fixedly connected to the bottom ends of two measuring blocks 4 via connecting blocks 86. The connecting blocks 86 are slidably connected to sliding grooves 85 formed at the top center of each adjusting groove 81. Adjusting knobs 84 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the base 1 on each of the two guide rods 82. Rotating the guide rod 82 via the adjusting knobs 84 causes the guide sleeve 83 to move laterally along the spiral thread, which in turn drives the measuring blocks 4 via the connecting blocks 86. Fine adjustments are made left and right on the adjustment space 3, and the widths of the first detection groove 5 and the second detection groove 6 are adjusted to the required range through the millimeter scale line 7 to meet the detection requirements of bulges in different models of automotive connectors; each adjustment groove 81 has a limiting member 88 at one end near the positioning plate 2; the end of the sleeve rod 82 away from the adjustment knob 84 is movably connected to the limiting member 88 to restrict the guide rod 82 to only rotate and not move; the end of the adjustment groove 81 away from the positioning plate 4 has a limiting ring 87; the guide rod 82 is sleeved in the limiting ring 87 to prevent the guide rod 82 from tilting, which would cause measurement errors.

[0018] Two millimeter scale lines 7 are provided on the front side wall of the base 1, and the starting ends of the two millimeter scale lines 7 are corresponding to the left and right sides of the positioning plate 2. The width of the first detection groove 5 and the second detection groove 6 can be read through the millimeter scale lines 7.

[0019] The upper limit groove 9 of the positioning plate 2 and the upper limit groove 9 of the two measuring blocks 4 are all provided with arc surfaces 10. The arc surfaces 10 make it easier for the bulge of the vehicle connector to align with the first detection groove 5 and the second detection groove 6, which plays a guiding role and improves the efficiency of detecting the thickness of the bulge of the vehicle connector.

[0020] Both adjustment spaces 3 have raised edges on the front and rear sides. The raised parts can limit the movement of the measuring block 4, making the measuring block 4 slide more stably within the adjustment space 3.

[0021] The operation steps of this utility model are as follows:

[0022] Rotating the guide rod 82 via the adjustment knob 84 causes the guide sleeve 83 to move laterally along the spiral pattern. This, in turn, drives the measuring block 4 to make slight adjustments left and right in the adjustment space 3 via the connecting block 86. The widths of the first detection groove 5 and the second detection groove 6 are adjusted to the required range via the millimeter scale line 7. The width of the first detection groove 5 is set to correspond to the maximum thickness range of the automotive connector bulge. If the automotive connector bulge cannot be placed in the first detection groove 5, it indicates that the thickness exceeds the limit. The width of the second detection groove 6 is set to be lower than the minimum thickness of the automotive connector bulge. If the automotive connector bulge can be placed in the second detection groove 6, it indicates that the thickness is lower than the minimum thickness range. This enables a rapid thickness measurement operation for the automotive connector bulge.
