However, this utility model may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0023] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of this utility model. The phrase "in a preferred embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that mutually excludes other embodiments.

[0024] Secondly, this utility model is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagrams. When detailing the embodiments of this utility model, for ease of explanation, the cross-sectional views illustrating the device structure may be partially enlarged, not adhering to the usual scale. Furthermore, the schematic diagrams are merely examples and should not limit the scope of protection of this utility model. In addition, actual manufacturing should include the three-dimensional spatial dimensions of length, width, and depth.

[0025] Please see the appendix Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides a measuring bracket for automotive sheet metal parts, including a base plate 10. Support rods 11 are fixed at the four corners of the upper end of the base plate 10. A top plate 12 is fixed to the upper end of the four support rods 11. A rotating mechanism 13 is mounted on the upper end of the top plate 12. A moving mechanism 20 is mounted on the lower end of the rotating mechanism 13. A connecting plate 30 is provided on the moving mechanism 20. A base 31 is fixed to the end of the connecting plate 30 away from the moving mechanism 20. A first electric push rod 32 is fixed to the upper end of the base 31. The output end of the first electric push rod 32 extends to the lower end of the base 31. The lower end is fixed with a housing 33, and one end of the housing 33 is fixed with a third motor 34. The output end of the third motor 34 extends into the interior of the housing 33, and the output end of the third motor 34 is fixed with a second threaded rod 35. The second threaded rod 35 and the housing 33 are rotatably connected. The outer side of the second threaded rod 35 is threadedly connected with a clamping plate 36. The inside of the housing 33 and on both sides of the second threaded rod 35 are fixed with second limiting rods 37. The two second limiting rods 37 pass through the clamping plate 36 and are slidably connected to it. The inside of the housing 33 is fixed with a measuring ruler 38, and the clamping plate 36 and the measuring ruler 38 are slidably connected.

[0026] In this embodiment, when automotive sheet metal parts need to be measured, the rotating mechanism 13 drives the moving mechanism 20 and the housing 33 to be adjusted to the position to be measured. The output end of the first electric push rod 32 moves downward, causing the housing 33 to move downward. It should be noted that the third motor 34 is fixed to one side of the housing 33. The height of the side of the housing 33 away from the third motor 34 is higher than the height of the side of the housing 33 close to the third motor 34, and the height of the side of the housing 33 away from the third motor 34 and the lower end of the clamping plate 36 are on the same plane. When automotive sheet metal parts need to be measured, the automotive sheet metal parts to be measured are placed between the side of the housing 33 away from the third motor 34 and the clamping plate 36. By activating the third motor 34, the output end of the third motor 34 is fixed. A second threaded rod 35 is rotatably connected to the inside of the outer casing 33. A clamping plate 36 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the second threaded rod 35. Two second limiting rods 37 are fixed inside the outer casing 33 on both sides of the second threaded rod 35. The two second limiting rods 37 pass through the clamping plate 36 and are slidably connected to the clamping plate 36. The clamping plate 36 can further fix the automotive sheet metal parts. A measuring ruler 38 is fixed inside the outer casing 33. A groove is opened on the side of the clamping plate 36 near the measuring ruler 38. The measuring ruler 38 and the groove are matched. When the clamping plate 36 moves, the measuring ruler 38 remains stationary. When the clamping plate 36 fixes the automotive sheet metal parts, the automotive sheet metal parts can be measured. The first electric push rod 32 can accurately control the height of the outer casing 33.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The rotating mechanism 13 includes a rotating rod 14, a first gear 15, a first motor 16, a second gear 17, and a rotating plate 18. The rotating rod 14 is rotatably connected to the inside of the top plate 12. The first gear 15 is fixed to the upper end of the rotating rod 14. The first motor 16 is fixed to the upper end of the top plate 12. The second gear 17 is fixed to the output end of the first motor 16, and the first gear 15 and the second gear 17 are meshed together. The rotating plate 18 is fixed to the outside of the rotating rod 14, and the rotating plate 18 is located at the upper end of the top plate 12.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first motor 16 is fixed to the upper end of the top plate 12. When the first motor 16 starts, the second gear 17 fixed at its output end rotates accordingly. Since the second gear 17 meshes with the first gear 15 fixed to the upper end of the rotating rod 14, the rotation of the second gear 17 will drive the first gear 15 to rotate, thereby causing the rotating rod 14 to rotate inside the top plate 12. The rotating plate 18 fixed to the outside of the rotating rod 14 will also rotate with the rotating rod 14, thereby driving the clamping plate 36, the outer shell 33, and the measuring ruler 38 to rotate. This allows the measurement of automotive sheet metal parts to be performed from different angles, improving the comprehensiveness and convenience of the measurement. It should be noted that the rotating plate 18 can limit the rotation of the rotating rod 14.

[0029] Secondly, please refer to it again. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The moving mechanism 20 includes a support plate 21, a load-bearing plate 22, a second motor 23, a first threaded rod 24, a moving plate 25, and two first limiting rods 26. The support plate 21 is fixed to the lower end of the rotating rod 14. The load-bearing plate 22 is fixed to one side of the support plate 21. The second motor 23 is fixed to the upper end of the load-bearing plate 22. The output end of the second motor 23 extends into the interior of the support plate 21, and the first threaded rod 24 is fixed to the output end of the second motor 23. The first threaded rod 24 and the support plate 21 are rotatably connected. The moving plate 25 is threaded to the outside of the first threaded rod 24. The two first limiting rods 26 are fixed inside the support plate 21, and the first threaded rod 24 is located between the two first limiting rods 26.

[0030] In this embodiment, the second motor 23 is fixed on the load-bearing plate 22, and the load-bearing plate 22 is fixedly connected to the support plate 21. When the second motor 23 is started, its output end drives the fixed first threaded rod 24 to rotate inside the support plate 21. Since the moving plate 25 is threaded to the outside of the first threaded rod 24 and is guided and restricted by the first limit rods 26 on both sides, the moving plate 25 will move linearly along the axial direction of the first threaded rod 24, thereby driving the position adjustment of the connecting plate 30 and subsequent measuring components, enabling multiple sets of measurements of automotive sheet metal parts, and ensuring the accuracy of automotive sheet metal part measurement data.

[0031] Secondly, please refer to the following as well. Figure 2 and Figure 5 Movable blocks 40 are provided on both sides of the upper end of the base plate 10. Square grooves 41 are provided on the side of the two movable blocks 40 that are close to each other. A limiting plate 42 is slidably connected inside the square groove 41. A push rod 43 is fixed at the upper end of the limiting plate 42 and extends into the interior of the movable block 40. A connecting rod 44 is fixed at the upper end of the limiting plate 42 and at both ends of the push rod 43. A baffle 45 is fixed at the upper end of the two connecting rods 44 and slidably connected inside the movable block 40. A spring 46 is provided inside the movable block 40 and outside the connecting rod 44. The spring 46 is located at the lower end of the baffle 45. A knob 47 is threadedly connected inside the movable block 40 and above the push rod 43.

[0032] In this embodiment, a movable block 40 on the base plate 10 can move on the base plate 10 as needed. When it is necessary to fix the automotive sheet metal part, the two ends of the automotive sheet metal part are positioned in the square grooves 41 opened by the two movable blocks 40. By turning the knob 47 downward, the push rod 43 will be pushed down, and the push rod 43 will drive the limiting plate 42 to slide downward in the square groove 41, thereby fixing the automotive sheet metal part between the movable block 40 and the limiting plate 42. By turning the knob 47 upward, the elastic force of the spring 46 will push the baffle 45, and the limiting plate 42 will be moved upward through the connecting rod 44, thereby releasing the fixation restriction on the automotive sheet metal part. It should be noted that one movable block 40 is fixed to the upper end of the base plate 10, and the other movable block 40 is slidably connected to the upper end of the base plate 10.

[0033] To further understand and explain, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 For example, a second electric push rod 48 is fixed at the upper end of the base plate 10, and the output end of the second electric push rod 48 is fixedly connected to the side of the moving block 40 away from the square groove 41.

[0034] In this embodiment, the output end of the second electric push rod 48 fixed on the base plate 10 is connected to the side of the moving block 40 away from the square groove 41. When the second electric push rod 48 is activated, it can directly push or pull the moving block 40 to move linearly on the base plate 10 through the extension and retraction of the output end, thereby fixing automotive sheet metal parts of different sizes. It should be noted that the first motor 16, the second motor 23, the first electric push rod 32, the third motor 34, and the second electric push rod 48 are all electrically connected to an external power supply via wires.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The bottom plate 10 has a T-shaped groove 49 inside, and a T-shaped plate 50 is fixed at the lower end of a movable block 40, and the T-shaped groove 49 and the T-shaped plate 50 are compatible.

[0036] In this embodiment, the T-slot 49 inside the base plate 10 is adapted to the T-plate 50 fixed at the lower end of the movable block 40. When the second electric push rod 48 pushes the movable block 40 to move, the T-plate 50 slides along the T-slot 49 to ensure that the T-plate 50 and the T-slot 49 fit tightly together and achieve stable fixation.

[0037] The working principle of this utility is as follows:

[0038] When it is necessary to measure automotive sheet metal parts, the second electric push rod 48 on the base plate 10 is activated. Its output end pushes the moving block 40 with a T-shaped plate 50 at its lower end to slide along the T-slot 49. The distance between the two moving blocks 40 is adjusted, and the two ends of the automotive sheet metal parts are placed into the square slot 41. The knob 47 is turned so that the push rod 43 moves the limiting plate 42 down, which works with the moving block 40 to clamp and fix the sheet metal parts. During measurement, the first motor 16 on the top plate 12 is activated. The second gear 17 at its output end meshes with the first gear 15 at the upper end of the rotating rod 14, causing the rotating rod 14 and the rotating plate 18 to rotate. This causes the rotating mechanism 13 to drive the moving mechanism 20 and the outer casing 33 to adjust to the measurement position. Subsequently... The second motor 23 in the moving mechanism 20 is started, and its output end drives the first threaded rod 24 to rotate within the support plate 21. The moving plate 25 moves axially along the first threaded rod 24 under the guidance of the first limit rod 26, driving the measuring components such as the connecting plate 30 to adjust their positions. Then, the outer shell 33 is lowered by controlling the first electric push rod 32 to place the sheet metal part between the outer shell 33 on the side away from the third motor 34 and the clamping plate 36. The third motor 34 is started, and its output end drives the second threaded rod 35 to rotate. The clamping plate 36 moves and clamps the sheet metal part under the restriction of the second limit rod 37. The measuring ruler 38 fixed inside the outer shell 33 can be used to complete the precise measurement and realize the measurement operation of multiple dimensions and multiple sets of data.

[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the art.
