The first detection block in the tool can detect the roof opening degree of the body-in-white, and when detecting, whether the measuring surface can shield the gap between the roof and the body side is observed, so as to determine whether the roof opening degree is qualified. However, the measuring surface needs to be placed between the roof edge and the body side during measurement. For the vehicle type without the gap between the roof and the side, the first detection block is not applicable, and the first detection block can only detect the roof opening degree of the rear body top, which is relatively limited in use. The second detection block in the tool can detect the roof T-shaped nail position degree, that is, two detection blocks need to be used to detect the roof opening degree and the roof T-shaped nail position degree respectively, and the roof opening degree and the roof T-shaped nail position degree cannot be detected at the same time, which is not convenient in use and has low detection efficiency. SUMMARY

[0004] The utility model discloses a body-in-white roof assembly detection tool, which can simultaneously detect the roof opening degree and the roof T-shaped nail position degree of the body-in-white, and improves the detection efficiency.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the technical scheme of a body-in-white roof assembly detection tool, which comprises: a support, a positioning member, a detection hole for detecting an external T-shaped nail, a detection block for detecting an external roof opening degree, and a reference bottom surface serving as a positioning reference. The positioning member is connected with the support, the detection hole and the detection block are arranged on the support respectively, the reference bottom surface is arranged at the bottom of the support, and the width of the detection block is less than the width of the set roof opening degree.

[0006] The positioning member is positioned by using the features on the external body-in-white, such as holes, side edges or side surfaces on the body-in-white, and is connected with the body-in-white to assist the bracket and other components in positioning; the detection block is used to detect the opening degree of the roof of the external body-in-white, and the width of the detection block is set according to the roof opening degree distance, and whether the assembly is required is judged by comparing the width of the detection block with the width of the roof assembly opening degree; the reference bottom surface is used to provide a reference for the bracket and is arranged at the bottom of the bracket and abuts against the surface of the body-in-white during work; the detection hole is used to detect the position of the T-shaped nail on the body-in-white, and whether the T-shaped nail is offset is judged by observing whether the T-shaped nail and the edge of the detection hole are concentric, and detection is realized; specifically, when the roof is assembled and welded with the body, the detection tool is placed on the body-in-white, and then the position of the roof is judged according to the width of the detection block, and the left and right positions of the roof are moved according to the width of the detection block to ensure that the roof is centrally arranged, and the roof opening degree is controlled within the set range, and when the detection tool is fixed on the body-in-white, the T-shaped nail on the body-in-white is also located in the detection hole, so that the T-shaped nail can be detected at the same time, and the detection efficiency is improved.

The specific arrangement can refer to the crosshair line and the hiragana target line. After the centering groove is arranged, whether the T-shaped nail is located at the center of the detection hole can be observed more intuitively, and the direction of the T-shaped nail offset is also more convenient to confirm.

[0017] Preferably, the bottom of the support is provided with an avoiding groove.

[0018] The avoiding groove is arranged to avoid other protruding structures on the body-in-white, so that the reference bottom surface can be attached to the body-in-white, and the detection accuracy is ensured.

[0019] Preferably, the positioning piece comprises a positioning pin connected with the support.

[0020] The positioning pin is arranged to cooperate with a hole or a groove on the body-in-white to position the body-in-white.
