Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steering knuckle technology, specifically to a flexible CMM measurement bracket for steering knuckles and non-steering knuckle chassis components. Background Technology

[0002] The steering knuckle is a key component in the automotive steering system, connecting the front wheels to the steering mechanism. It plays a vital role in transmitting steering force, supporting the wheels, and enabling wheel steering. The CMM measurement flexible bracket for non-steering knuckle chassis components is a special tooling for CMM to inspect non-steering knuckle chassis parts. Through its flexible design, it enables quick clamping, multi-vehicle adaptation, and efficient measurement, meeting the complex structure and diverse inspection needs of automotive chassis components.

[0003] According to a patent published on the China Patent Network, the patent title is "Flexible Optical Measurement Bracket," patent application number 201820215370.0. It includes a base and frame, a three-dimensional positioning mechanism, and auxiliary measurement components. The base is mounted on a measurement platform, and the frame is mounted on the base. The three-dimensional positioning mechanism is mounted on the frame, positioning the component to be measured relative to the frame. Adjusting the three-dimensional positioning mechanism allows the component to rotate relative to the optical measurement shooting path. The auxiliary measurement components are mounted on the frame, providing a reference benchmark for optical measurement. The base and frame avoid the optical measurement shooting path. This flexible optical measurement bracket can adapt to the clamping and positioning of various parts of various vehicle models by adjusting the three-dimensional positioning mechanism, and can adjust and optimize the posture of the component to be measured to adapt to the characteristics of optical shooting, significantly improving the accessibility of optical measurement. This flexible optical measurement bracket has a wide range of applications. In contrast, the CMM measurement flexible brackets mentioned above have fixed heights and cannot be adjusted.
