Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive parts processing technology, and more specifically, it relates to automated equipment for surface treatment of automotive steering components. Background Technology

[0002] Automotive steering components play a crucial role in vehicle driving safety, and the quality of their surface treatment directly affects the component's lifespan, performance, and overall vehicle safety. Surface treatment of automotive steering components requires specialized equipment to perform cleaning, polishing, and spraying processes. Existing automotive steering component surface treatment equipment requires clamping and fixing the steering component before applying the coating using a spray gun. Furthermore, after coating one side, workers must flip the component over to ensure complete coating coverage.

[0003] This utility model discloses a surface treatment device for processing automotive parts, comprising a worktable and a horizontal plate. A threaded sleeve is slidably connected to the worktable, and the worktable is driven by a second motor to connect the threaded sleeve. A first fixing plate and a second fixing plate are symmetrically arranged on the horizontal plate. A first clamp is connected to one side of the first fixing plate, and a second clamp is connected to one side of the second fixing plate. The second fixing plate is driven by a first motor to connect a second rotating rod. This utility model uses the first motor to drive the threaded rod to rotate, thereby causing the threaded sleeve to move. The displaced threaded sleeve causes the horizontal plate to move. The first clamp and the second clamp can quickly clamp and fix the automotive part plate. The first motor can drive the second clamp to rotate, thereby allowing the clamped and fixed automotive part plate to flip. Thus, the overall structure achieves the effect of automatic flipping and movement adjustment of the automotive part plate.

[0004] Based on the above, most existing automotive steering component surface treatment equipment requires workers to manually flip the components, which increases the labor intensity and labor costs for workers. Moreover, operators are exposed to various chemical agents, which can harm their health. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an automated surface treatment device for automotive steering components. This addresses the issue that existing automotive steering component surface treatment equipment mostly requires manual operation of flipping the components, which increases the labor intensity and labor costs for workers. Furthermore, operators are exposed to various chemical agents, posing a health hazard.

[0006] The purpose and effectiveness of this automated surface treatment equipment for automotive steering components are achieved through the following specific technical means:

[0007] An automated surface treatment equipment for automotive steering components includes a main body, a steering motor, electric clamps, a mounting frame, a transmission plate, limit chucks, a tilting assembly, and a quick-change assembly. The steering motor is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the main body. Two sets of electric clamps are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the main body. The mounting frame is located inside the main body. The transmission plate is horizontally slidably connected to the bottom of the mounting frame. Two sets of limit chucks are located inside the two sets of electric clamps. The tilting assembly and the quick-change assembly are located inside the main body.

[0008] Furthermore, the flipping assembly includes a drive shaft and a timing belt mechanism. The drive shaft is rotatably connected to the bottom of the main body of the equipment. Two sets of timing belt mechanisms are provided, and the two sets of timing belt mechanisms are respectively fixedly installed at both ends of the drive shaft.

A mounting frame is slidably connected to the outer side of each guide slide rod. Two sets of support rods are provided, and the two sets of support rods are slidably connected horizontally to the left and right sides of the mounting frame. Two sets of guide rollers are provided, and the two sets of guide rollers are rotatably connected to the bottom ends of the two sets of support rods. The two sets of guide rollers are slidably connected inside two sets of drive grooves.

[0011] Furthermore, the flipping assembly also includes a drive motor and a lead screw. The drive motor is fixedly mounted on the upper part of the mounting frame. The lead screw is rotatably connected to the upper part of the mounting frame and is fixedly mounted inside the drive motor. The lead screw is threadedly connected to the upper part of the transmission plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the flipping assembly also includes: a paint spray pipe and an air jet pipe, wherein the paint spray pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the transmission plate; and two sets of air jet pipes are provided, the two sets of air jet pipes being fixedly installed at the bottom of the transmission plate, and the two sets of air jet pipes being located on the left and right sides of the paint spray pipe.

[0013] Furthermore, the jet pipe is connected to an external air pump. During movement, the jet pipe sprays high-speed gas to blow away dust, debris, and other impurities adhering to the surface of the car's steering components, providing a clean surface for subsequent painting processes.

[0018] This invention has the advantages of rapid spraying, reduced labor intensity, and quick assembly and disassembly, which greatly reduces the labor intensity of workers and reduces labor costs. It is also compatible with automotive steering components of different sizes, which significantly improves the versatility and work efficiency of the equipment. In addition, the jet pipe automatically removes impurities from the surface of the components, so workers do not need to come into direct contact with chemical agents, which effectively protects their health.

[0027] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.

[0028] Example 1:

[0029] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 6 As shown:

[0030] This utility model provides an automated surface treatment equipment for automotive steering components, including a main body 1, a steering motor 2, an electric clamp 3, a mounting frame 4, a transmission plate 5, a limiting clamp 6, and a flipping assembly. The steering motor 2 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the main body 1. Two sets of electric clamps 3 are provided, and the two sets of electric clamps 3 are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the main body 1. The mounting frame 4 is located inside the main body 1. The transmission plate 5 is slidably connected to the bottom of the mounting frame 4 in the horizontal direction. Two sets of limiting clamps 6 are provided, and the two sets of limiting clamps 6 are respectively located inside the two sets of electric clamps 3.

[0031] The flipping assembly includes a drive shaft 201 and a timing belt mechanism 101. The drive shaft 201 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the main body 1 of the equipment. The timing belt mechanism 101 is provided in two sets. The two sets of timing belt mechanisms 101 are respectively fixedly installed at both ends of the drive shaft 201 and respectively fixedly installed on the outside of the two sets of electric clamps 3.

[0032] The flipping assembly also includes: a transmission disc 301 and a drive slide 302. Two sets of transmission discs 301 are provided, and the two sets of transmission discs 301 are respectively fixedly installed on the outside of the two sets of electric clamps 3. Two sets of drive slides 302 are provided, and the two sets of drive slides 302 are respectively opened on the outside of the two sets of transmission discs 301.

[0033] The flipping assembly also includes: guide slide rods 403, support rods 303, and guide rollers 304. There are at least four sets of guide slide rods 403, which are fixedly installed on the top of the main body 1 of the equipment. The outer side of the guide slide rods 403 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 4. There are two sets of support rods 303, which are slidably connected horizontally to the left and right sides of the mounting frame 4. There are two sets of guide rollers 304, which are rotatably connected to the bottom ends of the two sets of support rods 303 and slidably connected inside the two sets of drive grooves 302.

[0034] The flipping assembly also includes a drive motor 401 and a threaded screw 402. The drive motor 401 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the mounting frame 4. The threaded screw 402 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the mounting frame 4. The threaded screw 402 is fixedly installed inside the drive motor 401 and is threadedly connected to the upper part of the transmission plate 5.

[0035] The flipping assembly also includes a paint spray pipe 501 and an air jet pipe 502. The paint spray pipe 501 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the transmission plate 5. Two sets of air jet pipes 502 are provided, and the two sets of air jet pipes 502 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the transmission plate 5, located on the left and right sides of the paint spray pipe 501.

[0036] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:

[0037] Start the main body of the equipment 1, and the two sets of electric clamps 3 are powered on and run, which drive the inner limit clamps 6 to move towards each other, accurately clamping and fixing the car steering component located in the middle of the equipment, ensuring the stability of the component in subsequent processing.

[0038] The drive motor 401 is turned on, causing the lead screw 402 to rotate. Since the lead screw 402 is threadedly connected to the transmission plate 5, the transmission plate 5 moves horizontally along the mounting frame 4 under the drive of the lead screw. Simultaneously, the transmission plate 5 drives the paint spray pipe 501 and air jet pipe 502 mounted at the bottom to move synchronously. The air jet pipe 502 is connected to an external air pump; during movement, it sprays high-speed gas to blow away dust, debris, and other impurities adhering to the surface of the automotive steering components, providing a clean surface for subsequent painting processes. The paint spray pipe 501 is connected to an external feeding mechanism; after the air jet pipe 502 completes the pretreatment, it evenly sprays paint onto one surface of the automotive steering components.

[0039] After one side of the automotive steering component is painted, it needs to be flipped over to achieve a full-surface surface treatment. At this time, the steering motor 2 starts, driving the drive shaft 201 to rotate. The synchronous belt mechanisms 101 installed at both ends of the drive shaft 201 rotate synchronously under the drive of the shaft, thereby synchronously driving the two sets of electric clamps 3 to rotate. During the rotation of the electric clamps 3, the automotive steering component held by the limit chuck 6 flips over. Simultaneously, the rotation of the electric clamps 3 drives the transmission disc 301, which is fixedly installed on the outside, to rotate synchronously. As the transmission disc 301 rotates, the drive groove 302 on its outer side cooperates with the guide roller 304 rotatably connected to the bottom end of the support rod 303, causing the support rod 303 to move vertically along the mounting frame 4. The movement of the support rod 303 then drives the mounting frame 4 to rise and fall. During the rising and falling of the mounting frame 4, the guide slide rod 403 acts as a guide, ensuring the smooth rising and falling of the mounting frame 4. The lifting mechanism of the mounting frame 4 drives the transmission plate 5 to move, so that the paint spray pipe 501 always maintains a set distance from the surface of the automotive steering component. This ensures that the paint spray pipe 501 can evenly spray the component during the flipping and overturning process, thus completing the entire surface treatment process.

[0040] Example 2:

[0041] Based on Example 1, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, it also includes a quick-change component, which is located inside the main body 1 of the device.

[0042] The quick-change component includes: a push block 601 and a return spring 602. Two pairs of push blocks 601 are provided, and the two pairs of push blocks 601 are slidably connected to the bottom of the two sets of limit clamps 6 respectively. Two pairs of return springs 602 are provided, and the two pairs of return springs 602 are fixedly installed on the inner side of the two pairs of push blocks 601 respectively.

[0043] The quick-change component also includes: mounting slots 305 and limit hooks 603. There are two sets of mounting slots 305, which are opened inside the two sets of transmission discs 301. There are two pairs of limit hooks 603, which are fixedly installed on the top of the two pairs of push blocks 601.

[0044] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:

[0045] When handling automotive steering components of different sizes, it is necessary to replace the corresponding limiting chuck 6. At this time, simply press the actuating block 601. The actuating block 601 slides along a preset track inside the limiting chuck 6, compressing the return spring 602. As the actuating block 601 moves, the connected limiting hook 603 moves synchronously, thereby disengaging the limiting hook 603 from the mounting slot 305 of the electric clamp 3, achieving quick disassembly of the limiting chuck 6.

[0046] When replacing the new limit clamp 6, align the appropriate size limit clamp 6 with the mounting slot 305. Utilizing the inclined structure of the limit hook 603, it can be easily and quickly inserted into the mounting slot 305. After insertion, the compressed return spring 602 returns to its original shape, pushing the limit hook 603 into the mounting slot 305, completing the quick installation and precise limiting of the limit clamp 6, ensuring that automotive steering components of different sizes can be stably clamped.
