Description

A dashboard crossbeam alignment device Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts manufacturing and processing technology, and in particular to a dashboard crossbeam alignment device. Background Technology

[0002] Existing instrument panel beam alignment devices typically employ a clamping mechanism to hold the instrument panel beam in place to ensure its fixation.

[0003] For example, a Chinese patent (CN220277921U) discloses an automatic instrument panel crossbeam alignment device, comprising a frame, a positioning and clamping mechanism, an x-axis alignment mechanism, and a z-axis alignment mechanism. The positioning and clamping mechanism is fixed in the middle of the frame. The x-axis alignment mechanism is positioned in the middle of the frame behind the positioning and clamping mechanism via a first displacement mechanism, which drives the x-axis alignment mechanism to move up and down and back and forth. The z-axis alignment mechanism is positioned at the top of the frame via a second displacement mechanism, which drives the z-axis alignment mechanism to move back and forth and left and right. This device effectively reduces the labor intensity of workers, greatly improves production efficiency, ensures the quality of the aligned product, and effectively prevents the CCB frame from deforming and being damaged due to over-alignment.

[0004] However, the current design has a problem: once the clamping mechanism fixes the instrument panel crossbeam, the position of the crossbeam cannot be moved or adjusted. This design limits the fine-tuning of the crossbeam's position in some special cases. If the clamping point needs to be changed, the instrument panel crossbeam must be removed and re-clamped. This process is not only cumbersome but also wastes a lot of time and reduces work efficiency. Especially when dealing with complex operations that require precise position adjustment or handling multiple crossbeams, the traditional clamping method cannot cope flexibly. The re-clamping operation not only increases time costs but may also affect the continuity of the production line and overall efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Current designs have a problem: once the clamping mechanism fixes the instrument panel crossbeam, its position cannot be moved or adjusted. This design limits fine-tuning of the crossbeam's position in certain situations. If the clamping point needs to be changed, the instrument panel crossbeam must be removed and re-clamped. This process is not only cumbersome but also wastes a lot of time, reducing work efficiency. Especially when dealing with complex operations requiring precise position adjustments or handling multiple crossbeams, traditional clamping methods cannot flexibly cope. The re-clamping operation not only increases time costs but may also affect the continuity and overall efficiency of the production line. Therefore, this invention provides an instrument panel crossbeam alignment device.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an instrument panel crossbeam alignment device, comprising a base, a plurality of support rods fixedly connected to the top of the base, a clamping mechanism fixedly connected between the top ends of every three support rods, the clamping mechanism comprising a fixing plate, the bottom of the fixing plate being fixedly connected to the top ends of the support rods, a template plate being fixedly connected to one side of the fixing plate, and a transmission mechanism being provided on one side of the template plate, the transmission mechanism comprising a fixing frame and a bracket, a groove being provided on the top of the fixing frame, a plurality of rotating rods being rotatably connected to the inner wall of the groove, a first rotating tube being rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bracket, a plurality of second rotating tubes being rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bracket, a conveyor belt being provided on the outer surface of the first rotating tube, a shaft being rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bracket, and a third rotating tube being fixedly connected to the outer surface of the shaft, the first rotating tube, the second rotating tube, and the third rotating tube being connected by transmission via the conveyor belt.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, a base is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the bracket, and a motor is fixedly connected to the top of the base.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, one end of the shaft extends rotatably through the outside of the bracket, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the shaft.

The outer surface of the fixed arc blocks is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the template, and the outer surfaces of the two sliding arc blocks are slidably connected to the outer surface of the template.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] This invention utilizes a fixed frame and a groove to allow the top of the rotating rod to protrude above the inner wall of the groove, enabling the dashboard crossbeam to contact the rotating rod. Through the support of the rotating rod on the dashboard crossbeam and its rotational effect, the bottom of the dashboard crossbeam can move. The bottom conveyor belt of the bracket, which cooperates with the fixed frame, is supported by multiple second rotating tubes, preventing the dashboard crossbeam, clamped between the fixed frame and the bracket, from contacting them. This minimizes wear on the dashboard crossbeam during movement. Furthermore, through the cooperation of the motor, shaft, and third rotating tube, the motor drives the third rotating tube to rotate, which in turn drives the conveyor belt to rotate, and through clamping... The mechanism's drive frame and bracket clamp and fix the instrument panel crossbeam, and the conveyor belt drives the instrument panel crossbeam to move through friction, thereby adjusting the clamping position of the instrument panel crossbeam. The support rod can fix the support plate, making the structure of the support plate more stable. At the same time, the cooperation between the support rod and the slide plate can make the movement trajectory of the slide plate more stable, increasing the movement stability of the slide plate. The hydraulic rod can drive the slide plate to move, thereby driving the bracket to clamp and fix the instrument panel crossbeam. Two sliding arc blocks can further increase the movement stability of the slide plate, and two fixed arc blocks can further increase the structural stability of the support plate.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] As shown in Figures 1-4, this utility model provides a technical solution: an instrument panel crossbeam alignment device, including a base 1, with multiple support rods 3 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and a clamping mechanism 2 fixedly connected between the top ends of every three support rods 3. The clamping mechanism 2 includes a fixing plate 21, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top ends of the support rods 3, and a profile plate 22 fixedly connected to one side of the fixing plate 21. A transmission mechanism 29 is provided on one side of the profile plate 22, and the transmission mechanism 29 includes a fixing frame 291 and a bracket 292. The top of the bracket 2910 is provided with a groove 2910. Multiple rotating rods 2911 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the groove 2910. A first rotating tube 293 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bracket 292. Multiple second rotating tubes 294 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bracket 292. A conveyor belt 295 is provided on the outer surface of the first rotating tube 293. A shaft 298 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bracket 292. A third rotating tube 299 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the shaft 298. The first rotating tube 293, the second rotating tube 294 and the third rotating tube 299 are connected by transmission through the conveyor belt 295.

[0026] A base 296 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the bracket 292, and a motor 297 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 296. One end of the shaft 298 rotatably extends through the outside of the bracket 292, and the output end of the motor 297 is fixedly connected to one end of the shaft 298.

[0027] Through the above embodiments, the top of the rotating rod 2911 can be made higher than the inner wall of the groove 2910 by the fixing bracket 2911 and the groove 2910, so that the instrument panel crossbeam can contact the rotating rod 2911. Through the support of the rotating rod 2911 on the instrument panel crossbeam and the rotation effect of the rotating rod 2911, the bottom of the instrument panel crossbeam can be moved. The bottom conveyor belt 295 of the bracket 292 that cooperates with the fixing bracket 291 is supported by multiple second rotating tubes 294, which can make the instrument panel crossbeam clamped between the fixing bracket 291 and the bracket 292 move. The beam will not contact the fixed frame 291 and the bracket 292, thereby minimizing wear on the instrument panel beam during movement. Through the cooperation of the motor 297, the shaft 298 and the third rotating tube 299, the motor 297 can drive the third rotating tube 299 to rotate, which in turn drives the conveyor belt 295 to rotate. The clamping mechanism 2 drives the fixed frame 291 and the bracket 292 to clamp and fix the instrument panel beam. Then, the conveyor belt 295 drives the instrument panel beam to move through friction, thereby adjusting the clamping position of the instrument panel beam.

[0028] Two support rods 23 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mold plate 22. A slide plate 24 is provided on the inner wall of the mold plate 22. Two sliding holes 25 are opened on the top of the slide plate 24. The inner wall of the sliding hole 25 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the support rod 23. One side of the slide plate 24 is fixedly connected to one side of the bracket 292.

[0029] The inner wall of the profile plate 22 is provided with a support plate 26. The top of the support plate 26 has two support holes 27. The inner wall of the support hole 27 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support rod 23. One side of the support plate 26 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing frame 291.

[0030] A hydraulic rod 28 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 26, and one end of the hydraulic rod 28 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slide plate 24.

[0031] Two sliding arc blocks 210 are fixedly connected to one side of the slide plate 24, and two fixed arc blocks 211 are fixedly connected to one side of the support plate 26. The outer surface of the fixed arc block 211 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the mold plate 22, and the outer surfaces of the two sliding arc blocks 210 are slidably connected to the outer surface of the mold plate 22.

[0032] Through the above embodiments, the support rod 23 can fix the support plate 26, making the structure of the support plate 26 more stable. At the same time, through the cooperation of the support rod 23 and the slide plate 24, the movement trajectory of the slide plate 24 can be made more stable, increasing the movement stability of the slide plate 24. The hydraulic rod 28 can drive the slide plate 24 to move, thereby driving the bracket 292 to clamp and fix the instrument panel crossbeam. The two sliding arc blocks 210 can further increase the movement stability of the slide plate 24, and the two fixed arc blocks 211 can further increase the structural stability of the support plate 26.

[0033] Working principle:

[0034] As shown in Figures 1-4, during use, the instrument panel crossbeam is placed on top of the rotating rod 2911 in the multiple clamping mechanisms 2. Then, the hydraulic rod 28 retracts, causing the slide plate 24 to move. The movement of the slide plate 24 causes the bracket 292 to move. The movement of the bracket 292 causes the conveyor belt 295 to move. At this time, the conveyor belt 295 and the rotating rod 2911 clamp and fix the instrument panel crossbeam.

[0035] When the clamping position needs to be adjusted, the motor 297 drives the shaft 298 to rotate, the shaft 298 rotates the third rotating tube 299 to rotate, the third rotating tube 299 rotates the conveyor belt 295 to rotate, and the instrument panel crossbeam is clamped and fixed by the clamping mechanism 2's drive fixing frame 291 and bracket 292. Then, the conveyor belt 295 drives the instrument panel crossbeam to move through friction, thereby adjusting the clamping position of the instrument panel crossbeam.

[0036] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
