Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bushing processing technology, specifically relating to an opening device for an automotive stabilizer bar bushing. Background Technology
[0002] Automotive stabilizer bar bushings are important components connecting the stabilizer bar to the suspension system or chassis. Made of elastic materials such as rubber or polyurethane, they are typically located at both ends of the stabilizer bar. Their main function is to provide cushioning, reducing direct collisions between the stabilizer bar and metal components during movement, thereby reducing noise and vibration.
[0003] The opening in the stabilizer bar bushing is for easy installation, allowing the bushing to be easily fitted onto the stabilizer bar and secured, while also accommodating the torsional deformation of the stabilizer bar during driving, maintaining a stable connection, and facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement.
[0004] In current technology, when producing automotive stabilizer bar bushings, openings are directly made in the mold to create an opening in the bushing. While this method allows for the production of bushings with openings, it also results in numerous flashes during production. These flashes are difficult to repair, and the openings in the mold make it highly susceptible to damage. Repairing damaged molds requires significant time and financial resources. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems of difficult flash repair and the time and money required for mold damage in the existing technology, and to provide an opening device for automotive stabilizer bar bushings.
[0006] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0007] An opening device for an automotive stabilizer bar bushing includes a base, a mounting plate connected to the upper surface of the base; a placement plate is connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate, a side plate is connected to the side of the placement plate, a vertical plate is connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate at a position corresponding to the placement plate, a guide rod is connected to the side of the vertical plate near the placement plate, the guide rod is located above the placement plate, a cutter is connected between the guide rod and the placement plate near the vertical plate, a push sleeve is provided on the upper surface of the base at a position corresponding to the guide rod, a cylinder is connected to the end of the push sleeve away from the guide rod, and the cylinder is mounted on the base.
[0008] Preferably, the upper surface of the placement plate forms a 20° angle with the horizontal plane, the inclined direction of the upper surface of the placement plate is towards the placement plate, the side plate forms a 20° angle with the vertical direction, and the angle between the upper surface of the placement plate and the side edge of the side plate is 90°.
[0009] Preferably, the end of the guide rod away from the upright plate has a chamfer.
[0010] Preferably, a movable groove is provided below the push sleeve at the position corresponding to the cutter.
[0011] Preferably, a separator is connected to the lower part of the upright plate near the guide rod. Symmetrically arranged protective blocks are provided above the side of the separator, and push plates are connected to the ends of the two protective blocks away from the cutter. A fixing plate is connected to the upper surface of the base corresponding to the position of the push plate.
[0012] Preferably, a crossbar is slidably connected above the fixed plate, one end of the crossbar is connected to the push plate, the other end of the crossbar is connected to a round block, and a spring is connected between the fixed plate and the round block, with the spring located outside the crossbar.
[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the protective block is higher than the upper surface of the placement plate.
[0014] Preferably, both protective blocks have an inclined surface at the end near the cutter.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] When it is necessary to open the automotive stabilizer bar bushing, place the stabilizer bar bushing in the placement plate and side plate near the guide rod. After placement, activate the cylinder, which drives the push sleeve to move closer to the guide rod. The movement of the push sleeve moves the stabilizer bar bushing, causing the guide rod to insert into the stabilizer bar bushing and be positioned within the push sleeve. When the push sleeve pushes the stabilizer bar bushing to the cutter, the stabilizer bar bushing begins to cut. When the push sleeve pushes the stabilizer bar bushing past the cutter, the opening of the stabilizer bar bushing is complete. Opening can be performed without the need for an opening mold. Complete production of the stabilizer bar bushing reduces the generation of flash and the hassle of cleaning flash. At the same time, using conventional molds to produce stabilizer bar bushings will not cause mold damage, which can improve mold life and reduce repair time and money costs.
[0017] As the stabilizer bar bushing passes the cutter, the opening of the bushing is opened by the separator. With the help of the inclined surface, the stabilizer bar bushing is positioned outside the two protective blocks. Once the bushing has completely passed the cutter, the opening is complete. Pushing the push plate closer to the placement plate causes the crossbar to slide within the fixed plate. During this sliding motion, the crossbar moves the circular block, which compresses the spring. The compressed spring contracts and stores its restoring force. This compresses the spring between the two protective blocks. Under the action of the push plate, the opening of the car stabilizer bar bushing will be in an open state, thus ensuring that the car stabilizer bar bushing will not be cut by the cutter again. When the push plate sends the car stabilizer bar bushing to the position past the cutter, the operator can remove the car stabilizer bar bushing from the outside of the protective block and release the push plate. Under the action of the spring restoring force, the push plate will drive the protective block to return to its original position, which can ensure the opening quality of the car stabilizer bar bushing. After pushing the push plate to move the car stabilizer bar bushing to the position past the cutter, the push plate can automatically reset, reducing operation steps and improving work efficiency.

[0027] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0028] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, an automotive stabilizer bar bushing opening device includes a base 1, which is used to install and support a mounting plate 11 and a cylinder 27.
[0029] A mounting plate 11 is connected to the upper surface of the base 1, and a placement plate 2 is connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 11. The placement plate 2 is used for the automobile stabilizer bar bushing.
[0030] The side of the placement plate 2 is connected to a side plate 21. The side plate 21 is used to block the vehicle stabilizer bar bushing and prevent the vehicle stabilizer bar bushing from falling out of the placement plate 2 and the side plate 21.
[0031] The upper surface of the placement plate 2 forms a 20° angle with the horizontal plane, and the inclined direction of the upper surface of the placement plate 2 is towards the placement plate 2. The side plate 21 forms a 20° angle with the vertical direction, and the angle between the upper surface of the placement plate 2 and the side of the side plate 21 is 90°. With this setting, when the opening of the car stabilizer bar bushing is made, the movement path of the car stabilizer bar bushing can be guaranteed, and the car stabilizer bar bushing can be prevented from shifting during the movement.
[0032] A vertical plate 23 is connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 11 at the position corresponding to the placement plate 2. A guide rod 22 is connected to the side of the vertical plate 23 near the placement plate 2. The guide rod 22 is located above the placement plate 2 and is used to guide the vehicle stabilizer bar bushing to the cutter 24.
[0033] The guide rod 22 has a chamfer 221 at the end away from the upright plate 23. By having the chamfer 221, it can be ensured that the guide rod 22 can be accurately inserted into the vehicle stabilizer bar bushing.
[0034] A cutter 24 is connected between the guide rod 22 and the placement plate 2 near the upright plate 23. The cutter 24 is used to make an opening for the automobile stabilizer bar bushing.
[0035] A separator 25 is connected to the lower part of the upright plate 23 near the guide rod 22. The separator 25 is used to open the opening of the vehicle stabilizer bar bushing, thereby assisting in the removal of the vehicle stabilizer bar bushing.
[0036] A push sleeve 26 is provided above the base 1 at the position corresponding to the guide rod 22. The push sleeve 26 is used to push the car stabilizer bar bushing to the cutter 24.
[0037] A movable groove 261 is provided below the push sleeve 26 at the position corresponding to the cutter 24. By providing the movable groove 261, it is ensured that the push sleeve 26 can push the car stabilizer bar bushing to a position beyond the cutter 24, thereby ensuring the opening quality of the car stabilizer bar bushing.
[0038] A cylinder 27 is connected to the end of the push sleeve 26 away from the guide rod 22. The cylinder 27 is mounted on the base 1 and is used to drive the push sleeve 26 to move.
[0039] In practical use, when it is necessary to open the car stabilizer bar bushing, the car stabilizer bar bushing is placed in the placement plate 2 and side plate 21 near the guide rod 22. After placement, the cylinder 27 is activated, and the cylinder 27 drives the push sleeve 26 to move closer to the guide rod 22. The movement of the push sleeve 26 moves the car stabilizer bar bushing, so that the guide rod 22 is inserted into the car stabilizer bar bushing and located in the push sleeve 26. When the push sleeve pushes the car stabilizer bar bushing to the cutter 24, the car stabilizer bar bushing begins to be cut. When the push sleeve pushes the car stabilizer bar bushing past the cutter 24, the opening of the car stabilizer bar bushing is completed. Opening can be performed without the use of an opening mold. Complete production of car stabilizer bar bushings can reduce the generation of flash and reduce the trouble of cleaning flash. At the same time, using conventional molds to produce car stabilizer bar bushings will not cause mold damage, which can improve mold life and reduce repair time and money costs.
[0040] A symmetrically arranged protective block 3 is provided on the upper side of the separator 25. The protective block 3 is used to protect the vehicle stabilizer bar bushing and prevent the vehicle stabilizer bar bushing from contacting the cutter 24 for a second time.
[0041] The bottom of the protective block 3 is higher than the upper surface of the placement plate 2. This arrangement ensures that the protective block 3 can be moved.
[0042] Both protective blocks 3 have an inclined surface 31 at one end near the cutter 24. The inclined surface 31 is used to guide the opening of the vehicle stabilizer bar bushing to the outside of the protective block 3.
[0043] Each of the two protective blocks 3 has a push plate 32 connected to the end away from the cutter 24. The push plate 32 is used to push the two protective blocks 3 against the car stabilizer bar bushing to prevent the car stabilizer bar bushing from being cut by the cutter 24 a second time.
[0044] A fixing plate 33 is connected to the upper surface of the base 1 at the position corresponding to the push plate 32. A cross rod 34 is slidably connected above the fixing plate 33. The cross rod 34 is used to ensure that the push plate 32 can move stably and will not deflect.
[0045] One end of the cross rod 34 is connected to the push plate 32, and the other end of the cross rod 34 is connected to the round block 35. A spring 36 is connected between the fixing plate 33 and the round block 35. The spring 36 is located outside the cross rod 34 and is used to reset the push plate 32 and the protective block 3.
[0046] In practical use, when the car stabilizer bar bushing passes the cutter 24, the opening of the car stabilizer bar bushing will be opened by the separator 25. With the cooperation of the inclined surface 31, the car stabilizer bar bushing is positioned outside the two protective blocks 3. After the car stabilizer bar bushing completely passes the cutter 24, the opening of the car stabilizer bar bushing is completed. By pushing the push plate 32 closer to the placement plate 2, the push plate 32 moves and causes the cross bar 34 to slide within the fixed plate 33. During the sliding process, the cross bar 34 drives the round block 35 to move. The movement of the round block 35 compresses the spring 36. After being compressed, the spring 36 will contract and store the restoring force. Under the action of the two protective blocks 3, the opening of the car stabilizer bar bushing will be in an open state, thus ensuring that the car stabilizer bar bushing will not be cut by the cutter 24 again. When the push plate 32 sends the car stabilizer bar bushing to a position past the cutter 24, the operator can remove the car stabilizer bar bushing from the outside of the protective block 3 and release the push plate 32. Under the action of the spring 36, the push plate 32 will drive the protective block 3 to return to its original position, which can ensure the opening quality of the car stabilizer bar bushing. After pushing the push plate 32 to move the car stabilizer bar bushing to a position past the cutter 24, the push plate 32 can automatically reset, reducing the operation steps and improving work efficiency.
