Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to vehicle parts assembly field especially, relate to a air outlet vane mounting assembly. BACKGROUND

[0002] The Chinese patent with the publication number CN103056650A discloses an air conditioner air outlet automatic assembly machine, comprising a bottom plate, a positioning block provided with a plurality of vane positioning grooves, a connecting rod mounting seat and a connecting rod mounting cylinder, an air outlet shell mounting seat for mounting an air outlet shell, a clamping cylinder for clamping the air outlet shell placed on the air outlet shell mounting seat and an air outlet shell mounting cylinder for driving the air outlet shell mounting seat to lift are further arranged above the bottom plate, and a vane tensioning mechanism is arranged on the positioning block. The clamping cylinder is arranged to clamp the air outlet shell on the air outlet shell mounting seat, then the air outlet shell mounting seat is driven by the air outlet shell mounting cylinder to move downwards and approach the positioning block provided with vanes, so that the installation between the air outlet shell and the vanes is realized. The installation of the air outlet shell and the vanes is mostly through the shafts protruding from the two sides of the vanes and inserted into the mounting holes on the air outlet shell, so that the rotation cooperation between the vanes and the air outlet shell is realized.

[0003] In the above structure, since the shafts at the two ends of the vanes need to be inserted and matched with the mounting holes on the two sides of the air outlet shell, it is inevitable that the length of the vanes with shafts is greater than the distance between the inner walls of the air outlet shell. During assembly, the two sides of the shell need to be deformed outwardly to allow the shafts to be inserted. During the assembly process, the path of the shafts sliding into the mounting holes from the outside of the shell is relatively long, which leads to a large deformation range of the shell, a large area of scratches on the inner wall of the shell and the extension of the scratches from the opening of the shell to the mounting holes. The scratches are easily exposed in the visual range and affect the quality of the assembled shell. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0004] The utility model discloses a kind of air outlet vane mounting assemblies, which can reduce the deformation of the shell when the shell and the vane are assembled and reduce the length of the scratches on the shell.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model solves the problems by the following technical solutions:

[0006] The air outlet vane mounting assembly comprises a workbench, a positioning guide rail arranged on the workbench for positioning the placed vane, a clamping mechanism arranged above the workbench for clamping the air outlet shell, and a lifting mechanism for driving the clamping mechanism to lift and, after descending, to realize the assembly of the air outlet shell and the vane on the positioning guide rail. The positioning guide rail is reversely arranged on the workbench. When the positioning guide rail is reversed, the shafts at both ends of the vane are in clearance fit with the inner walls of both sides of the air outlet shell. When the positioning guide rail is returned to normal, the shafts at both ends of the vane are in plug-in fit with the mounting holes on both sides of the air outlet shell. The reversal or return of the positioning guide rail is controlled by a driving component.

[0007] By the above scheme, the driving component can drive the positioning guide rail to reverse or return. When the vane needs to be mounted into the air outlet shell, the positioning guide rail can be first reversed by the driving component. Then, the clamping mechanism clamping the air outlet shell is lowered by the lifting mechanism. Since the positioning guide rail with the vane is in the reversed state under the driving of the driving component, when the air outlet shell moves downward, the shafts at both sides of the vane are in clearance fit with the inner walls of the air outlet shell. Therefore, the vane will not extrude the bottom of the air outlet shell to deform when the vane is inserted into the air outlet shell. When the air outlet shell is sleeved outside the vane, the driving component can be driven again to drive the positioning guide rail to return to normal. During the return of the positioning guide rail to normal, the vane on the positioning guide rail will gradually be inserted into the mounting holes on the air outlet shell. When the vane is mounted into the air outlet shell, only the mounting holes on the inner walls of the air outlet shell deform, and only the mounting holes on the inner walls of the air outlet shell have scratches. Therefore, the scratches generated when the shafts at both sides of the vane are mounted into the mounting holes on the air outlet shell are reduced.

[0008] Preferably, one end of the positioning guide rail is hinged to the workbench. The driving component is a reversing cylinder vertically installed at the lower end surface of the workbench. The reversing cylinder is located at the end of the positioning guide rail away from the hinged end. The piston rod of the reversing cylinder penetrates through the workbench and is in hinged fit with the positioning guide rail at the end.

[0009] By the above scheme, the reversing cylinder can drive the positioning guide rail to reverse or return when started. When the vane is mounted into the air outlet shell, the vane is first reversed to be in clearance fit with the inner walls of the air outlet shell, and then returned to normal when the air outlet shell is sleeved outside the vane. The shafts at both sides of the vane are inserted into the mounting holes on the air outlet shell. Therefore, the length of the scratches on the inner walls of the air outlet shell and the range of deformation of the air outlet shell when the vane is mounted into the air outlet shell are reduced.

[0010] Preferably, a hinge column is vertically protruded below the workbench. The cylinder body of the reversing cylinder is in hinged fit with the hinge column at the end away from the piston rod.

[0011] The cylinder body of the turnover air cylinder is hingedly arranged below the workbench, so that the positioning jigs are turned over together when the turnover air cylinder pushes the positioning jigs to turn over, thereby reducing the radial force borne by the piston rod of the turnover air cylinder when the positioning jigs are pushed by the piston rod to turn over, and improving the service life of the turnover air cylinder.

[0012] Preferably, a limiting plate is fixed on the workbench and can be used to limit the upward turning angle of the positioning jigs.

[0013] The limiting plate can limit the upward turning angle of the positioning jigs when the positioning jigs are turned to the preset angle by the driving component, thereby reducing the probability of over-turning of the positioning jigs under the driving of the driving component.

[0014] Preferably, the positioning jigs are provided in two groups, the blades placed on the two groups of positioning jigs are arranged perpendicularly to each other, and the lifting mechanism reciprocally translates between the two positioning jigs through the horizontal moving component.

[0015] Preferably, the horizontal moving component comprises a sliding plate arranged above the workbench and used to install the clamping mechanism and the lifting mechanism, and a rodless cylinder used to drive the sliding plate to reciprocally move between the two positioning jigs, and the sliding plate is fixedly connected with the sliding block of the rodless cylinder.

[0016] The rodless cylinder can drive the sliding plate provided with the lifting mechanism and the clamping mechanism to reciprocally move between the two positioning jigs, so that the air outlet shell clamped on the clamping mechanism can move between the two positioning jigs, thereby facilitating the assembly of the air outlet shell and the blades arranged perpendicularly to each other.

[0017] Preferably, the positioning jigs are provided with a plurality of placement grooves in which a blade can be independently placed, and the synchronous positioning of the blades is controlled by a positioning assembly.

[0018] Preferably, the positioning assembly comprises a sliding groove arranged on the positioning jigs and extending perpendicularly to the placement grooves and penetrating through the groove bottoms of the plurality of placement grooves, a pressing block arranged to slide in the sliding groove and capable of pressing the blade against the side wall of the placement groove when the pressing block moves, and a pressing cylinder arranged on one side of the positioning jigs and used to drive the pressing block to move in the sliding groove.

[0019] The pressing cylinder can drive the pressing block in the sliding groove to move, so that the pressing block can press the blade placed in the placement groove against the side wall of the placement groove.

[0020] Preferably, an avoiding groove is arranged below the positioning jigs in the workbench and used to avoid the turning of the positioning jigs.

[0021] The avoiding groove can avoid the turning of the positioning jigs and provide a turning space for the positioning jigs.
