[0002] In the automotive manufacturing process, the application of primer for windshield assembly has a significant impact on the reliability of the windshield assembly. Currently, primer application is mainly done manually by workers, who can only rely on visual inspection or touch to apply the primer. This method demands a high level of experience, skill, physical strength, and manpower from the workers, making it difficult to ensure consistent application quality and uniform coverage of the primer on the windshield mounting surface. When the height, position, or blending point of the vehicle changes during application, workers must physically lift the primer brush to reposition and reapply, resulting in significant waste of manpower, resources, and time. There is also the possibility of primer dripping onto sheet metal parts and being difficult to remove.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the drawings, the present application provides an automobile windshield bottom coating tool 100, which comprises a tool support 1 and a coating brush 2, and further comprises a moving assembly 3 for driving the tool support 1 and the coating brush 2 to move. The moving assembly 3 comprises a first moving wheel 31 and a second moving wheel 32, the first moving wheel 31 is arranged at the bottom of the tool support 1, the second moving wheel 32 is arranged at the side of the tool support 1, the rotation axis of the first moving wheel 31 and the rotation axis of the second moving wheel 32 intersect, and the first moving wheel 31 and the second moving wheel 32 form a positioning space 30 for positioning a component to be coated.
[0031] The present application adopts the cooperation of the first moving wheel 31 and the second moving wheel 32, so that the automobile windshield bottom coating tool 100 can be well positioned at the corresponding position of the component to be coated, to drive the tool support 1 and the coating brush 2 to move along the coating surface of the component to be coated, with good moving stability and high coating quality. The technical problem that the existing coating operation only relies on visual observation, hand feeling and personal experience, resulting in great physical dependence, poor consistency and inability to meet the requirements of rapid and efficient coating of the whole vehicle is solved. Please refer to Figure 5 As shown in the drawings, in the present embodiment, the component to be coated is a sheet metal part 5 of an automobile body, and the coating surface is a bonding surface on the sheet metal part 5 for bonding with the windshield.
[0032] In the embodiment, the rotation axis of the first moving wheel 31 is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the second moving wheel 32, and a right-angled positioning space 30 is formed between the circumferential surfaces of the first moving wheel 31 and the second moving wheel 32, so as to better position the tool support 1 on the sheet metal part 5 of the automobile and improve the stability of the tool support 1 during movement. Specifically, in use, the first moving wheel 31 contacts the side edge of the sheet metal part 5 of the automobile to walk at the side edge of the coating surface, and the first moving wheel 31 rotates by the friction between the first moving wheel 31 and the sheet metal part 5, thereby driving the tool support 1 to move. The second moving wheel 32 is used to walk on the coating surface of the part to be coated, that is, the second moving wheel 32 is attached to the contact surface of the sheet metal part 5 of the automobile for installing the windshield. In the embodiment, the diameter of the second moving wheel 32 is smaller than the diameter of the first moving wheel 31. The first moving wheel 31 is the driving wheel, which has a relatively large diameter and good movement performance. The second moving wheel 32 is the auxiliary wheel, which has a relatively small diameter and is mainly used for supporting and positioning. The coating brush 2 is fixed to the tool support 1 and located on the same side as the second moving wheel 32. The moving direction of the coating brush 2 is the same as the moving direction of the second moving wheel 32, and the coating brush 2 is located at the rear side of the moving direction of the second moving wheel 32. When the first moving wheel 31 and the second moving wheel 32 rotate to drive the tool support 1 to move, the coating brush 2 also moves, thereby uniformly and high-quality coating the primer on the area of the sheet metal part 5 that is attached to the windshield, and improving the installation quality between the windshield and the sheet metal part 5. It should be noted that the intersection or perpendicularity of the rotation axes in the present document includes the cases of intersection or perpendicularity in the same plane, and also includes the cases of intersection or perpendicularity in space.
[0033] As shown in Figures 1 to 4 The tool support 1 includes a base 11 and a brush handle positioning frame 12. In the embodiment, the base 11 is a substantially square base, and the bottom of the base 11 has a mounting cavity for accommodating the first moving wheel 31. The first moving wheel 31 is mounted on the base 11 by means of a set of bearings 33 and a fixed shaft 34. Correspondingly, the second moving wheel 32 is mounted on the side of the base 11 by means of another set of bearings 33 and a fixed shaft 34, and the lower surface of the second moving wheel 32 is spaced apart from the lower surface of the base 11, so as to better fit the installation contour of the sheet metal part 5 and enable the tool support 1 to stably move during movement and ensure the quality of primer coating. It should be noted that the first moving wheel 31, the second moving wheel 32, and the tool support 1 are all made of materials that have both flexibility and rigidity, such as nylon and rubber, so as to protect the surface of the sheet metal part 5 from being scratched or bumped.
[0034] As shown in Figure 2As shown, the coating brush 2 is configured to be movably combined with the brush handle positioning frame 12, so that the distance between the coating brush 2 and the metal sheet 5 can be flexibly adjusted to ensure the quality of the coating of the primer. The coating brush 2 comprises a handle 21 and a brush head 22 connected to the bottom of the handle 21, and the brush head 22 is a brush. In the embodiment, the brush head 22 is a wool brush, so as to achieve the purpose of soft, uniform and non-damaging coating.
[0035] Further, the brush handle positioning frame 12 is provided with a clamp 4, and the coating brush 2 is clamped on the clamp 4. The clamp 4 is fixed on the tool support 1 to clamp the coating brush 2, so as to facilitate the replacement of the coating brush 2 and improve the convenience of use. In the embodiment, the clamp 4 comprises a first clamping body and a second clamping body which are pivotally connected to each other and a torsion spring, the first clamping body is fixed on the tool support 1, and the torsion spring is arranged between the first clamping body and the second clamping body. The first clamping body and the second clamping body can stably clamp the coating brush 2, and the first clamping body and the second clamping body can be opened by pressing, so as to release and replace the coating brush 2. The structure is simple, the manufacturing cost is low, and the height position of the coating brush 2 can be conveniently adjusted and replaced.
[0036] Please refer to Figure 5 As shown, in an embodiment, the use method of the automobile windshield primer tool 100 provided by the application is as follows: a worker first dips the coating brush 2 in the primer until the coating brush 2 is full of the primer, then installs the coating brush 2 on the tool support 1 and clamps and fixes the coating brush 2 by the clamp 4, adjusts the position, makes the first moving wheel 31 and the second moving wheel 32 adhere to the corresponding positions of the metal sheet 5, pushes the tool support 1 to make the coating brush 2 contact the metal sheet 5, easily coats the primer on the surface of the metal sheet 5 for installing the windshield, ensures the perfect combination of the windshield and the primer, takes away the automobile windshield primer tool 100 after coating a section, takes down the coating brush 2, dips the coating brush 2 in the primer again, positions the coating brush 2 according to the above method, continues the coating work of the next section, and finally completes all the coating work.
