Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automobile manufacturing technology, and in particular to a fixture for vulcanizing stabilizer bar bushings. Background Technology

[0002] As a crucial component of the automotive suspension system, the stabilizer bar plays a vital role in improving vehicle stability and handling. By connecting the left and right sides of the suspension system, the stabilizer bar effectively reduces body roll during cornering, thereby enhancing driving safety and comfort. The bushing, on the other hand, is the connecting component between the stabilizer bar and other parts of the suspension system; its quality and performance directly affect the stabilizer bar's performance and lifespan. To ensure good wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and elasticity, the bushing typically undergoes vulcanization treatment.

[0003] In the vulcanization process of stabilizer bar bushings, the fixture, as a core component of a critical step, has a decisive impact on the vulcanization effect due to its design and usage. Especially in the crucial step of fixing the bushing to the fixture for vulcanization, existing fixture technologies are increasingly revealing significant limitations. Specifically, utility model patent CN 217293102 U discloses a fixture for vulcanizing automotive stabilizer bar bushings, including a lower module, an upper module, and a pair of clamps. Although this fixture can be used independently of the vulcanization equipment and has a simple structure, in actual operation, there is no fixing structure between the bushing and the fixture. When the fixture moves, there is a risk that the bushing may fall off, which could not only lead to damage or loss of the bushing but also affect the continuity and efficiency of vulcanization production.

[0004] Therefore, to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, we urgently need a fixture for the vulcanization of stabilizer bar bushings. This fixture should ensure the stable fixation of the bushing during the vulcanization process, preventing it from falling off during movement or transport, while maintaining the advantages of simple structure and easy operation, thus providing strong support for the vulcanization production of automotive stabilizer bar bushings. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fixture for vulcanizing stabilizer bar bushings, which solves the problem in the prior art where the bushing may fall off when the fixture is moving. This could not only lead to damage or loss of the bushing, but also affect the continuity and efficiency of vulcanization production.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

Each of the two arc-shaped clamps has a placement groove on one corresponding side. An arc-shaped ring is set on one side of the placement groove, and a bushing is set on the other side. One side of the arc-shaped ring is rotatably connected to a fastening screw with one end threaded through the arc-shaped clamp.

[0009] The arc-shaped clamp is connected to the side wall of the mounting plate via a vertical adjustment structure.

[0010] The mounting plate has two symmetrical sliding grooves on one side top and one side bottom. The vertical adjustment structure includes two sliding rods that are adapted to and slidably connected to the sliding grooves. The top ends of the two sliding rods are connected by a crossbar, and the bottom ends are respectively connected to an arc-shaped clamp by a moving rod. The top of the crossbar is provided with an adjusting screw that is threaded through the crossbar and rotatably connected to the side wall of the mounting plate.

[0011] Two guide rods are symmetrically connected to one side of the bottom of the arc-shaped ring, and one end of the guide rod slides through the arc-shaped clamp.

[0012] The length of the slide rod is greater than the depth of the slide groove, and a handle is fixedly connected to the top end of the adjusting screw.

[0013] The thickness of the arc-shaped ring is less than the width of the placement groove, and several anti-slip grooves are provided on one side of the arc-shaped ring.

[0014] One end of the moving rod is fixedly connected to the side wall of the arc-shaped clamp with bolts, and the other end is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding rod.

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, a fixture for vulcanizing stabilizer bar bushings in this embodiment includes a mounting plate 4, a stabilizer bar 1, and two arc-shaped fixtures 3;

[0027] The stabilizer bar 1 is set on one side of the mounting plate 4, and two arc-shaped clamps 3 are symmetrically set on both sides of the stabilizer bar 1. Each side of the two arc-shaped clamps 3 has a placement groove 13. An arc-shaped ring 7 is set on one side of the placement groove 13, and a bushing 2 is set on the other side. One side of the arc-shaped ring 7 is rotatably connected to a fastening screw 12 with one end threaded through the arc-shaped clamp 3.

[0028] The arc-shaped clamp 3 is connected to the side wall of the mounting plate 4 through a vertical adjustment structure.

[0029] First, securely fix the mounting plate 4 to the vulcanizing equipment or workbench, ensuring it does not move or shake during the entire vulcanization process. Next, the operator places the two bushings 2 to be vulcanized into the placement slots 13 of the two arc-shaped clamps 3. These two arc-shaped clamps 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the stabilizing rod 1 on one side of the mounting plate 4, providing accurate positioning space for the bushings 2.

[0030] After the bushing 2 is placed, the operator moves the arc-shaped ring 7 within the placement groove 13 by rotating the fastening screw 12. One side of the arc-shaped ring 7 is rotatably connected to the fastening screw 12, while one end of the fastening screw 12 is threaded through the arc-shaped clamp 3. Therefore, rotating the fastening screw 12 allows for precise control of the movement distance of the arc-shaped ring 7. After the arc-shaped ring 7 moves, it presses against the bushing 2, effectively preventing the bushing 2 from falling off during connection and subsequent operations.

[0031] Next, the operator places the stabilizer bar 1 on one side of the mounting plate 4, ensuring that the stabilizer bar 1 is positioned between the two bushings 2. At this point, the two arc-shaped clamps 3 can be moved closer to each other via the vertical adjustment structure. The design of the vertical adjustment structure allows the position of the arc-shaped clamps 3 to be flexibly adjusted according to the actual dimensions of the stabilizer bar 1 and the bushings 2, ensuring the versatility and adaptability of the clamps.

[0032] As the arc-shaped clamps 3 approach each other, the two bushings 2 are tightly clamped onto the stabilizing rod 1, achieving a secure connection between the bushings 2 and the stabilizing rod 1. At this point, the clamps are ready for vulcanization, and the entire clamp system can be fed into the vulcanization equipment for vulcanization. During the vulcanization process and during connection, because the bushings 2 are firmly fixed in the clamps, they will not fall off or shift due to equipment movement or vibration, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of vulcanization production.

[0033] Example 2

[0034] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, in this embodiment, a clamp for vulcanizing a stabilizer bar bushing has two symmetrically formed grooves 6 on both the top and bottom sides of a mounting plate 4. The vertical adjustment structure includes two sliding rods 10 that are adapted to and slidably connected to the grooves 6. The top ends of the two sliding rods 10 are connected by a crossbar 9, and their bottom ends are connected to an arc-shaped clamp 3 via moving rods 5. An adjusting screw 8, threaded through the crossbar 9 and rotatably connected to the side wall of the mounting plate 4, is provided at the top of the crossbar 9. Specifically, the operator rotates the adjusting screw 8, causing the crossbar 9 to move up and down. The crossbar 9, through the sliding rods 10, drives the moving rods 5, which in turn causes the arc-shaped clamp 3 to slide up and down along the grooves 6, achieving flexible adjustment of the position of the arc-shaped clamp 3. This achieves the effect of precisely adjusting the arc-shaped clamp 3 according to the actual dimensions of the stabilizer bar 1 and the bushing 2, enhancing the clamp's versatility and adaptability.

[0035] The length of the slide rod 10 is greater than the depth of the slide groove 6, and a handle is fixedly connected to the top of the adjusting screw 8. Specifically, the operator can hold the handle and easily rotate the adjusting screw 8, causing the slide rod 10 to slide fully within the slide groove 6, thereby adjusting the position of the arc-shaped clamp 3. This achieves the effect of facilitating operation and improving adjustment efficiency, making the position adjustment of the arc-shaped clamp 3 more convenient and faster.

[0036] One end of the moving rod 5 is bolted to the side wall of the arc-shaped clamp 3, and the other end is bolted to the side wall of the sliding rod 10. Specifically, when adjusting the position of the arc-shaped clamp 3, the sliding rod 10 moves the arc-shaped clamp 3 together with it via the moving rod 5, achieving a stable connection between the arc-shaped clamp 3 and the sliding rod 10. This ensures that the arc-shaped clamp 3 will not shake or fall off during movement, improving the overall stability and reliability of the clamp.

[0037] Example 3

[0038] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, a clamp for vulcanizing a stabilizer bushing has two guide rods 11 symmetrically connected to one side of the bottom of the arc-shaped ring 7. One end of the guide rod 11 slides through the arc-shaped clamp 3. Specifically, during the process of rotating the fastening screw 12 to move the arc-shaped ring 7 to press against the bushing 2, the guide rod 11 slides within the arc-shaped clamp 3, providing a stable guiding effect for the arc-shaped ring 7. This achieves the effect of ensuring smooth and accurate movement of the arc-shaped ring 7, avoiding skewing or jamming of the arc-shaped ring 7 during movement, and improving the fixing stability of the bushing 2.

[0039] The thickness of the arc-shaped ring 7 is less than the width of the placement groove 13. Several anti-slip grooves are provided on one side of the arc-shaped ring 7. Specifically, the arc-shaped ring 7 has a certain amount of room to move within the placement groove 13, which can better adapt to the shape and size of the bushing 2. At the same time, the anti-slip grooves increase the friction between the arc-shaped ring 7 and the bushing 2. This achieves the effect of improving the fixing stability of the bushing 2 and preventing the bushing 2 from loosening or falling off due to external forces during the vulcanization process.

[0040] This solution includes the following work process:

[0041] First, securely fix mounting plate 4 to the vulcanizing equipment or workbench, ensuring it does not move or shake during the entire vulcanization process. Next, the operator begins the following detailed workflow:

[0042] The operator places two bushings 2 to be vulcanized into the placement slots 13 of two arc-shaped clamps 3. These two arc-shaped clamps 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the stabilizing rod 1 on one side of the mounting plate 4, providing accurate positioning space for the bushings 2. After placing the bushings 2, the operator rotates the fastening screw 12, causing the arc-shaped ring 7 to move within the placement slot 13. One side of the arc-shaped ring 7 is rotatably connected to the fastening screw 12, and one end of the fastening screw 12 is threaded through the arc-shaped clamp 3. Therefore, rotating the fastening screw 12 allows for precise control of the movement distance of the arc-shaped ring 7. During the process of rotating the fastening screw 12 to move the arc-shaped ring 7 to press against the bushing 2, the guide rod 11 slides within the arc-shaped clamp 3, providing stable guidance for the arc-shaped ring 7, ensuring smooth and accurate movement, and preventing the arc-shaped ring 7 from skewing or jamming during movement. The thickness of the arc-shaped ring 7 is less than the width of the placement groove 13, allowing the arc-shaped ring 7 some room to move within the placement groove 13, which can better adapt to the shape and size of the bushing 2. At the same time, several anti-slip grooves on one side of the arc-shaped ring 7 increase the friction between the arc-shaped ring 7 and the bushing 2, improve the fixing stability of the bushing 2, and prevent the bushing 2 from loosening or falling off due to external forces during the vulcanization process.

[0043] Next, the operator places the stabilizing rod 1 on one side of the mounting plate 4, ensuring that the stabilizing rod 1 is positioned between the two bushings 2. At this point, the position of the arc-shaped clamp 3 needs to be adjusted using the vertical adjustment mechanism. Specifically, the operator holds the handle at the top of the adjusting screw 8 and easily rotates the adjusting screw 8, causing the crossbar 9 to move up and down. The crossbar 9, through the slide bar 10, drives the moving rod 5, which in turn causes the arc-shaped clamp 3 to slide up and down along the slide groove 6, achieving flexible adjustment of the position of the arc-shaped clamp 3. The length of the slide bar 10 is greater than the depth of the slide groove 6, ensuring that the slide bar 10 can slide fully within the slide groove 6, thereby accurately adjusting the position of the arc-shaped clamp 3. When adjusting the position of the arc-shaped clamp 3, the slide bar 10 moves the arc-shaped clamp 3 together with the moving rod 5, achieving a stable connection between the arc-shaped clamp 3 and the slide bar 10, ensuring that the arc-shaped clamp 3 will not shake or fall off during movement.

[0044] As the arc-shaped clamps 3 approach each other, the two bushings 2 are tightly clamped onto the stabilizer bar 1, achieving a secure connection between the bushings 2 and the stabilizer bar 1. At this point, the clamps are ready for vulcanization, and the entire clamp system can be fed into the vulcanization equipment for vulcanization.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
