[0002] In the automotive wiring harness production process, visual inspection is a crucial step in ensuring product quality.

[0003] Currently, employees mostly use traditional processes for visual inspection of wire harnesses. This involves producing a sample first, which is then verified by the quality department and fixed on the workbench. Employees then compare the product to be inspected with the sample one by one. This method has many drawbacks: First, it cannot guarantee that the wire harness branches are of consistent length, and it is difficult to effectively control issues such as missing accessories or misaligned positions. Second, this process relies entirely on the employees' manual operation, without any wire harness fixing points. Furthermore, when comparing products, there are no indications regarding the wire harness dimensions and the installation direction and position of accessories; everything depends on the employees' visual identification. This not only makes the inspection process time-consuming and labor-intensive but also easily leads to incorrect or missing accessories and inconsistent branch lengths, resulting in a large number of defective products. This seriously affects product quality and production efficiency, making it difficult to meet the stringent quality requirements of modern automotive production for wire harnesses.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an automotive wiring harness appearance inspection bench to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] First Embodiment

[0027] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a first embodiment of an automotive wiring harness visual inspection bench provided by this utility model. An automotive wiring harness visual inspection bench includes:

[0028] The control panel 8, the first cylinder 1, the second cylinder 2, the third cylinder 3, the fourth cylinder 4, the fifth cylinder 5, the sixth cylinder 6, the seventh cylinder 7, a plurality of first LED diodes 16 and a plurality of second LED diodes 17 are all mounted on the surface of the control panel 8;

[0029] Multiple first LED diodes 16 and multiple second LED diodes 17 are mounted on the surface of the operating table 8 and located between the first cylinder 1, the second cylinder 2, the third cylinder 3, the fourth cylinder 4, the fifth cylinder 5, the sixth cylinder 6 and the seventh cylinder 7.

[0030] The surface of the control panel 8 is provided with 0.5mm thick soft glass, and through holes are provided at the installation positions of the first cylinder 1, the second cylinder 2, the third cylinder 3, the fourth cylinder 4, the fifth cylinder 5, the sixth cylinder 6, and the seventh cylinder 7 to facilitate the operation of the first cylinder 1, the second cylinder 2, the third cylinder 3, the fourth cylinder 4, the fifth cylinder 5, the sixth cylinder 6, and the seventh cylinder 7.

[0031] The operating platform 8 is equipped with a first regulated power supply 9 and a second regulated power supply 12 on both sides. The surfaces of the first regulated power supply 9 and the second regulated power supply 12 are respectively equipped with a first power switch 10 and a first cylinder lifting switch 11, and a second power switch 14 and a second cylinder lifting switch 13.

[0032] An electrical cable tray 15 is provided at the bottom of the operating console 8.

[0033] Multiple first LED diodes 16 and multiple second LED diodes 17 use red and blue respectively to indicate the branch endpoint and accessory installation point.

[0034] The electrical cable tray 15 is used for laying and organizing electrical wires and gas pipes.

[0035] The working principle of the automotive wiring harness appearance inspection bench provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0036] Wire harness fixing principle: On a 3800mm x 880mm x 850mm lean pipe operating table, the installation position and number of cylinders are determined according to the product drawings and holes are drilled for installation. By raising the cylinder extension rod, the branching points of the main trunk and branches of the wire harness can be accurately fixed. This design allows the wire harness to maintain a stable state during the inspection process, avoiding inspection errors caused by wire harness shaking or unstable position, and providing a foundation for accurate subsequent inspection.

[0037] The principle of the indicator is as follows: On the drawing of the wooden panel, holes are drilled and installed with blue second LED 17 and red first LED 16 according to the end point of the wire harness branch and the position of the accessory. The blue second LED 17 is used to indicate the end point of the wire harness branch, and the red first LED 16 is used to indicate the installation point of the accessory. During the operation, the inspector can see these indicators intuitively, clearly understand the standard position of each part of the wire harness, and thus accurately judge whether the branch length of the wire harness under inspection meets the requirements and whether the accessory is installed correctly, which greatly reduces the inspection error caused by human judgment.

[0038] Wiring arrangement principle: An electrical cable tray 15 is installed under the workbench 8 for laying and organizing electrical wires and air pipes. At the same time, it connects the series power switch and the cylinder lifting switch for easy operation by employees. This design not only makes the wiring layout of the entire inspection table more organized and avoids the safety hazards caused by messy wiring, but also makes it easier for employees to operate and control, improving the convenience and efficiency of inspection work.
