Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automobile trunk mounting, and in particular to an auxiliary tool. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of science and technology, automobiles are becoming more and more important in people's lives. The automobile trunk cover is used to close the automobile trunk. During the automobile assembly process, the installation of the trunk cover is an important link. The accurate installation of the trunk cover has a key influence on the appearance, sealing performance and use function of the automobile.

[0003] At present, when installing the trunk cover on the automobile production line, workers usually rely on their experience and simple manual tools to operate. However, this approach has many problems. Since the trunk cover lacks a positioning device for auxiliary positioning, the trunk cover is prone to displacement when installed on the vehicle body, which results in a loose fit between the trunk cover and the vehicle body, thus affecting the overall appearance and sealing performance of the automobile. On the other hand, since manual operation requires multiple adjustments and attempts, it consumes a lot of time, resulting in low installation efficiency of the trunk cover on the vehicle body and reducing the overall efficiency of the production line.

In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be practiced in a number of different ways from those described herein without departing from the scope of the present application, and it is understood that similar improvements can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present application, and therefore the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

The terms used in the specification of the present application are only for the purpose of describing the specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present application. The term "and / or" used in the specification of the present application includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0047] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 The application provides an auxiliary tool for limiting a trunk lid in a first direction x when the trunk lid is installed.

[0048] Specifically, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the auxiliary tool of the application comprises a tool unit 100, the tool unit 100 comprising a base 10, a positioning assembly 20, an abutting block 30 and a clamping mechanism 40; the base 10 is arranged along a second direction y; the positioning assembly 20 is installed on the base 10, and the positioning assembly 20 comprises a main positioning pin 21 and a secondary positioning pin 22, which are used for plug-in cooperation with a tail lamp mounting sheet metal 210; at least three abutting blocks 30 are installed on the base 10, and the at least three abutting blocks 30 are arranged in a triangular shape and used for abutting against the tail lamp mounting sheet metal 210; the clamping mechanism 40 is installed on the base 10; when the main positioning pin 21 and the secondary positioning pin 22 are respectively plug-in cooperated with the tail lamp mounting sheet metal 210 and the at least three abutting blocks 30 abut against the tail lamp mounting sheet metal 210, the clamping mechanism 40 can move relative to the base 10 and is used for limiting the trunk lid (not shown in the figure) in the first direction x.

[0049] As can be seen from the above, the plug-in cooperation of the positioning assembly 20 with the tail lamp mounting sheet metal 210 and the abutting between the at least three abutting blocks 30 arranged in a triangular shape and the tail lamp mounting sheet metal 210 are used to realize the assembly and positioning of the tool unit 100 on the tail lamp mounting sheet metal 210, and then the clamping mechanism 40 is used to fix the trunk lid on the tail lamp mounting sheet metal 210 in the first direction x, so that the stability of the tool unit 100 for limiting the trunk lid in the first direction x can be improved, the trunk lid can be prevented from being displaced when being installed on the vehicle body, the assembly precision of the trunk lid when being installed on the vehicle body can be improved, the worker can be facilitated to install the trunk lid on the vehicle body, and the installation efficiency of the worker when installing the trunk lid can be improved.

[0050] As Figure 1 shown, the base 10 comprises a connecting rod 11, and the main positioning pin 21 is fixedly connected with the base 10 through the connecting rod 11.

[0051] In an embodiment, the secondary positioning pin 22 can be configured as one or more.

[0052] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, the secondary positioning pin 22 is configured as one. Here, the first positioning hole 2101 and the second positioning hole 2102 are formed on the tail lamp mounting sheet metal 210, and the main positioning pin 21 and the secondary positioning pin 22 are plug-in cooperated with the first positioning hole 2101 and the second positioning hole 2102 respectively, so as to realize the positioning of the tool unit 100.

[0053] AsFigure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the base 10 includes a first link assembly 221, and a secondary positioning pin 22 is connected to the base 10 through the first link assembly 221; wherein, the secondary positioning pin 22 can be adjusted in installation position relative to the main positioning pin 21 in the first direction x and / or the second direction y under the drive of the first link assembly 221.

[0054] In this embodiment, the first link assembly 221 includes a first link 2211 and a second link 2212. The second link 2212 has a sliding groove 2213, and the first link 2211 is fixedly connected to a bolt 2214. The bolt 2214 passes through the sliding groove 2213 and is fixed by a nut 2215. The second link 2212 can move relative to the first link 2211 in the first direction x. When it is necessary to move the second link 2212, the nut 2215 is loosened, and the relative position of the sliding groove 2213 and the bolt 2214 on the second link 2212 is adjusted to move the second link 2212 in the first direction x. After the second link 2212 is adjusted to the desired position, the nut 2215 is tightened, and the locking force of the nut 2215 is used to fix the second link 2212, thereby completing the adjustment of the second link 2212 in the first direction x. The first link 2211 moves in the second direction y using the same principle. Alternatively, connections can be made using slide rails, pulleys, or other methods, and fixed using pins or similar means. These methods are quite common for technical personnel and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, the number of abutment blocks 30 is configured to be three; the three abutment blocks 30 can abut against the taillight mounting sheet metal 210 in a surface contact manner.

[0056] In this embodiment, the abutment block 30 includes a first abutment block 31, and a secondary positioning pin 22 is fixedly mounted on the first abutment block 31. It is understood that in other embodiments, the secondary positioning pin 22 and the first abutment block 31 may be provided separately and connected to the base 10 respectively via connecting rods.

[0057] In one embodiment, the abutment block 30 further includes a second abutment block 32, which is connected to the base 10 via a second link assembly 321. The second abutment block 32, driven by the second link assembly 321, can adjust its installation position relative to the main locating pin 21 in the first direction x and / or the second direction y. And / or, the abutment block 30 further includes a third abutment block 33, which is connected to the base 10 via a third link assembly 331. The third abutment block 33, driven by the third link assembly 331, can adjust its installation position relative to the main locating pin 21 in the first direction x and / or the second direction y. Thus, by adjusting the positions of the second abutment block 32 and the third abutment block 33 installed in the first direction x and / or the second direction y, when the tooling unit 100 is used for assembling the trunk lid of different vehicle models, the positions of the second abutment block 32 and the third abutment block 33 can be adjusted to abut against the taillight mounting sheet metal 210 of the vehicle. The tooling unit 100 is fixed to the taillight mounting sheet metal 210 through the cooperation of the abutment block 30 and the positioning component 20. This allows the auxiliary tooling to be applicable to a variety of different vehicle models.

[0058] In this embodiment, the second abutment block 32 and the third abutment block 33 are connected to the base 10 through the second link assembly 321 and the third link assembly 331, respectively. The second abutment block 32 and the third abutment block 33 can both be adjusted in installation position relative to the main positioning pin 21 in the first direction x and / or the second direction y.

[0059] Here, the principle by which the second link assembly 321 and the third link assembly 331 drive the second abutment block 32 and adjust the second abutment block 32 in the first direction x and / or the second direction y is the same as that of the first link assembly 221, and will not be elaborated here.

[0060] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the base 10 also includes a fourth link assembly 41, and the clamping mechanism 40 is mounted on the base 10 via the fourth link assembly 41; wherein, the clamping mechanism 40 can be adjusted in installation position relative to the base 10 in the first direction x and / or the second direction y under the drive of the fourth link assembly 41.

[0061] Here, the principle by which the fourth link assembly 41 drives the clamping mechanism 40 to adjust in the first direction x and / or the second direction y is the same as that of the first link assembly 221, and will not be described in detail here.

[0062] In one embodiment, the clamping mechanism 40 includes a swing rod 42, a drive handle 43, and a clamping block 44. The drive handle 43 and the clamping block 44 are disposed on both sides of the swing rod 42 and are respectively connected to the swing rod 42. The end of the swing rod 42 connected to the drive handle 43 is rotatably connected to the base 10, and the swing rod 42 can drive the clamping block 44 to press and limit the trunk lid under the drive handle 43. By configuring the clamping mechanism 40 as a structure of a swing rod 42, a drive handle 43, and a clamping block 44, the clamping and releasing actions can be quickly completed by simply rotating the drive handle 43, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the auxiliary tooling for assisted assembly of the trunk lid.

[0063] Furthermore, the clamping block 44 is provided with a buffer 441, and the clamping block 44 can abut against the trunk lid through the buffer 441. It can be understood that during installation, the clamping block 44 abuts against the trunk lid through the buffer 441, which can prevent the high-hardness clamping block 44 from contacting the trunk lid during assembly, thereby reducing the risk of the abutment block 30 leaving scratches on the taillight mounting sheet metal 210.

[0064] Here, the material of the buffer 441 can be configured as foam, rubber, silicone, polyurethane, etc.

[0065] In one embodiment, a handle 50 is installed on the base 10; wherein the handle 50 and the positioning component 20 are arranged on both sides of the base 10. That is to say, the worker can pick up and place the tooling unit 100 through the handle 50, which facilitates the worker's operation of the tooling unit 100 and improves the assembly efficiency when the auxiliary tooling is used to assemble the trunk lid.

[0066] In one embodiment, the number of tooling units 100 is configured to be two; the two tooling units 100 are arranged along the second direction y on both sides of the trunk lid. By setting two tooling units 100 to position the trunk lid from both sides respectively, it is beneficial to reduce the installation error on both sides of the trunk lid during assembly.

[0067] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0068] The above embodiments merely illustrate several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the patent protection scope of this application should be determined by the appended claims.
