[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of this utility model, but not all embodiments.

[0027] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center," "lateral," "longitudinal," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "upper," "lower," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating orientation or positional relationships, are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model.

The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a tooling for splicing rubber hoses 6 for automobiles includes: a platform 1, a tooling 2 for placing splicing parts 5 fixedly installed on the platform 1, a clamping mechanism 3 for clamping the splicing parts 5, and a pushing mechanism 4 for pushing the rubber hoses 6 into the splicing parts 5; the tooling 2 is provided with a mold cavity 21 that matches the model of the splicing parts 5.

[0029] The clamping mechanism 3 includes: a mounting bracket 31 fixedly mounted on the table 1, a clamping block 32 slidably mounted on the mounting bracket 31, a screw 33 fixedly mounted on the clamping block, and a screw 34 for fixing the clamping component to the mounting bracket 31.

[0030] The workers first place the splice 5 to be assembled onto the pre-set placement fixture 2. Then, they apply downward pressure to the splice 5 so that it can be smoothly engaged inside the mold cavity 21 provided by the placement fixture 2, thereby achieving the initial positioning and fixation of the splice 5 on the placement fixture 2.

[0031] After the splice 5 is engaged and positioned, the clamping block 32 is moved to the upper area of ​​the splice 5. Due to the gravitational potential energy of the clamping block 32, under the action of gravity, the clamping block 32 falls freely along the guide path of the mounting bracket 31 until its lower surface is in close contact with the upper surface of the splice 5, thereby applying an initial clamping force to the splice 5.

[0032] Next, the staff manually rotated screw 34 to firmly fix the clamping block 32 to the mounting plate while it was still in contact with the splice 5. This fixing operation can effectively limit the displacement of the splice 5 in the horizontal and vertical directions, ensuring that the splice 5 maintains a stable posture during subsequent splicing.

[0033] The above operation process can significantly improve the alignment efficiency of rubber hose 6 and splice 5 during splicing and reduce splicing errors caused by the movement of splice 5. It should be noted that splice 5 can be a connecting valve with fluid communication function or other types of rubber hose 6 components.

[0034] The pushing mechanism 4 includes: a placement block 41 slidably mounted on the tabletop 1, a pushing rod 42 fixedly connected to the placement block 41, a hinge rod 43 hinged to the pushing rod 42, a handle 44 hinged to the other end of the hinge rod 43, and a fixing assembly 45 for fixing the rubber tube 6 on the placement block 41; the handle 44 is hinged to the tabletop 1.

[0035] The fixing component 45 includes: a guide plate 451 fixedly installed on the table surface 1, a guide groove 452 formed on the guide plate 451, and a locking block 453 slidably installed in the guide groove 452; the locking block 453 is inserted into the placement block 41 through a limiting rod 454.

[0036] After the splicing component 5 is fixed, the worker places the rubber tube 6 to be spliced ​​into the placement groove 456 opened in the placement block 41. Then, the operator applies external force to push the handle 44, and the handle 44 rotates around the hinge point where it is hinged to the table surface 1. Since the hinge rod 43 is hinged to the handle 44, during the rotation of the handle 44, the hinge rod 43 translates along the direction of the splicing component 5 under the action of force transmission.

[0037] At the same time, the push rod 42, the hinge rod 43, and the placement block 41 form a linkage mechanism. The translational movement of the hinge rod 43 synchronously drives the push rod 42 and the placement block 41 to perform linear displacement. Under the coordinated movement of the push rod 42 and the placement block 41, the rubber tube 6 placed on the placement block 41 gradually moves closer to the splicing piece 5.

[0038] As the placement block 41 moves toward the splicing component 5, the engaging block 453 inserts into the placement block 41. Under the precise guidance of the limiting groove 461, the relative position between the engaging block 453 and the placement block 41 changes, and the engaging block 453 gradually approaches the placement block 41 and eventually fits tightly together. During this process, the engaging block 453 and the placement block 41 work together to effectively clamp and fix the rubber tube 6 placed on the placement block 41, ensuring the positional stability of the rubber tube 6 during the splicing process.

[0039] As the handle 44 continues to push, under the coordinated clamping action of the placement block 41 and the locking block 453, the rubber tube 6 moves closer to the splicing piece 5 and finally achieves insertion with the splicing piece 5, thereby completing the splicing operation between the rubber tube 6 and the splicing piece 5.

[0040] To summarize, while pushing the rubber tube 6 closer to and inserting it into the splicing piece 5 with the handle 44, the rubber tube 6 is fixed to ensure that the rubber tube 6 is stable when inserted into the splicing piece 5.

[0041] The placement block 41 and the engaging block 453 are respectively provided with placement grooves 456, and anti-slip pads 457 are provided in the placement grooves 456. By providing anti-slip pads 457 in the placement grooves 456, the axial driving force generated when the rubber tube 6 is inserted into the rubber component is effectively overcome. The introduction of anti-slip pads 457 can effectively overcome the axial driving force generated by the relative movement of the rubber tube 6 when it is inserted into the splicing component 5. If this axial driving force is not properly controlled, it is very likely to cause deviation in the connection between the rubber tube 6 and the splicing component 5, affecting the tightness and reliability of the splicing. The anti-slip pads 457, by increasing the friction between the rubber tube 6 and the placement grooves 456, can effectively counteract the axial driving force, ensuring that the rubber tube 6 remains in a stable state during the connection process, thereby ensuring the stability and success rate of the entire splicing process.

[0042] The placement block 41 is also provided with a heating component 46;

[0043] The heating assembly 46 includes: a limiting groove 461 formed on the placement block 41; an airbag 462 fixedly installed in the limiting groove 461; a heating chamber 463 communicating with the air outlet of the airbag 462; a heating bag 464 communicating with the heating chamber 463; and the heating element is placed in the placement groove 456. A heating element is provided in the heating chamber 463. A limiting block 465 is formed on the engaging block 453; the limiting block 465 matches the limiting groove 461.

[0044] During the engagement process between the placement block 41 and the engagement block 453, the limiting block 465 on the engagement block 453 precisely inserts into the corresponding limiting groove 461 on the placement block 41. As the components consisting of the placement block 41 and the engagement block 453 continue to approach each other, the limiting block 465 exerts a squeezing effect on the airbag 462 within the limiting groove 461, causing the gas inside the airbag 462 to flow in a directional direction into the heating chamber 463 connected to it. Under the drive of air pressure, the hot water in the heating chamber 463 further flows into the heating bag 464 laid in the placement groove 456.

[0045] It should be noted that the heating element 464 is laid along the placement groove 456 near the end of the splicing component 5. When the heating element 464 expands due to the injection of hot water, it applies a compressive force in the axial direction. This compressive force has a dual function: on the one hand, it provides stable support for the rubber tube 6, ensuring that the rubber tube 6 maintains the correct position and posture during the insertion process; on the other hand, it increases the temperature of the rubber tube 6 through the heat transfer effect, causing it to soften due to heat, which is more conducive to the precise insertion between the rubber tube 6 and the splicing component 5, improving the splicing quality and efficiency.

[0046] Furthermore, the device uses an airbag 462 to drive the heated liquid in a reciprocating contraction motion. This design allows for precise temperature control of the heating airbag 464, preventing it from remaining constantly at a high temperature. This effectively prevents burns caused by high temperatures when workers handle the assembled rubber tubing 6; it also avoids heat buildup caused by continuous heating within the placement tank 456, ensuring the safety and stability of the entire splicing device during operation.

The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art.

In addition, the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.
