The other end of the horizontal tilting arm is connected to a balance arm. A first clamping arm is fixedly provided at one end of the balance arm, and a second clamping arm is slidably provided at the other end of the balance arm. A positioning pin is provided on the opposite surface of the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm. A side pressure block is also provided on the balance arm, and the side pressure block is driven by a guide rod cylinder.

[0006] Furthermore, a servo motor is provided at the lower end of the vertical rotating arm to drive the horizontal flipping arm to flip.

[0007] Furthermore, the upper part of the vertical rotating arm has a brake ring, the boom is equipped with a brake cylinder, the brake cylinder is equipped with a first brake arm extending into the inner side of the brake ring, the first brake arm is equipped with a first brake pad corresponding to the inner wall of the brake ring, a second brake arm is hinged to the first brake arm, the second brake arm is equipped with a second brake pad corresponding to the outer wall of the brake ring, and the piston rod of the brake cylinder abuts against the rear end of the second brake arm.

[0008] Furthermore, the brake cylinder is hinged to the bottom surface of the boom.

[0009] Furthermore, a handle is provided on the balance arm.

[0010] Furthermore, a linear guide slider assembly is provided on the balance arm, the second holding arm is provided on the slider of the linear guide slider assembly, and a translation cylinder for driving the second holding arm to translate is provided on the balance arm.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model include: simple structure and convenient operation, realizing labor-saving assembly of automobile dashboard, improving assembly efficiency and reducing the labor intensity of workers. Attached Figure Description

[0012] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model;

[0013] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the brake ring structure of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0014] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0015] One such Figure 1-2 The illustrated automotive dashboard mounting arm includes a boom 1, a vertical rotating arm 2, and a lateral tilting arm 3. The boom 1 is arranged horizontally, and the vertical rotating arm 2 is arranged vertically, with its upper end rotatably connected to one end of the boom 1. The other end of the boom 1 has a flange for connecting to a suspension unit. The lateral tilting arm 3 is arranged horizontally, with one end rotatably connected to the lower end of the vertical rotating arm 2. A servo motor 9 for driving the lateral tilting arm 3 to tilt is located at the lower end of the vertical rotating arm 2.

[0016] The other end of the transverse tilting arm 3 is connected to a balance arm 4. The middle part of the balance arm 4 is hinged to the end of the transverse tilting arm 3. The transverse tilting arm 3 is provided with a balance adjustment bolt to adjust the balance of the balance arm 4, so that the two ends of the balance arm 4 remain horizontal, thereby improving the installation accuracy.

[0017] A first gripping arm 5 is fixedly mounted on one end of the balance arm 4, and a second gripping arm 15 is slidably mounted on the other end. A linear guide slider assembly is mounted on the balance arm 4, and the second gripping arm 15 is mounted on the slider of the linear guide slider assembly. A translation cylinder 16 is mounted on the balance arm 4 to drive the second gripping arm 15 to move. Positioning pins 6 are provided on the opposite surfaces of the first gripping arm 5 and the second gripping arm 15. A side pressure block 7 is also provided on the balance arm 4, and the side pressure block 7 is driven by a guide rod cylinder 8. When the installation arm is used to clamp the instrument panel, it first clamps the two ends of the instrument panel by the positioning pins 6 at both ends, and then supports and positions the side of the instrument panel by the side pressure block 7. A handle bar 14 is provided on the balance arm 4 for easy gripping by the worker.

[0018] As shown in the figure, the upper part of the vertical rotating arm 2 has a brake ring 10, and the boom 1 is equipped with a brake cylinder 11, which is hinged to the bottom surface of the boom 1. The brake cylinder 11 has a first brake arm 12 extending into the inner side of the brake ring 10. The first brake arm 12 has a first brake pad corresponding to the inner wall of the brake ring 10. A second brake arm 13 is hinged to the first brake arm 12, and the second brake arm 13 has a second brake pad corresponding to the outer wall of the brake ring 10. The piston rod of the brake cylinder 11 abuts against the rear end of the second brake arm 13. When the vertical rotating arm 2 rotates to its final position, the brake cylinder 11 clamps the brake ring 10, thereby limiting the rotation of the vertical rotating arm 2 and ensuring that the positional accuracy of other flipping actions is not affected.
