Modular combined car lamp automatic assembly tool platform

Abstract

This utility model discloses a modular, combined automated assembly tooling platform for automotive lights, relating to the field of automotive parts production equipment technology. It includes a tooling platform body and a support frame. This utility model, through the activation of a limit motor and the action of the drive shaft, causes two moving blocks to move horizontally relative to each other, thereby synchronizing the movement of two limit plates. This facilitates lateral limitation of the automotive lights to be automatically assembled. Simultaneously, under the action of the drive bevel gear, driven bevel gear, and driven shaft, two other moving blocks move horizontally relative to each other, causing the other two limit plates to move synchronously, thus facilitating vertical limitation of the automotive lights to be automatically assembled. This multi-directional limitation of the automotive lights to be automatically assembled prevents positional deviations and improves the efficiency of automotive light assembly.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of automotive parts production equipment, and in particular to a modular combined automated assembly tooling platform for automotive lights. Background Technology

[0002] Vehicle lights are tools for illuminating roads when vehicles are driving at night, and also for issuing various vehicle driving signals. They not only have the function of illumination, but also play an important role in driving safety, vehicle identification and aesthetics. In the process of automating the assembly of vehicle lights, tooling platforms are needed to facilitate modular assembly, which in turn facilitates subsequent operations.

[0003] An automated assembly fixture with announcement number CN210549335U includes an assembly base. Two support seats are symmetrically arranged at the front top of the assembly base along the left-right direction. A support frame is provided at the top of each support seat. A horizontal plate is arranged between the two support frames. A rotating wheel is provided on the right rear surface of the horizontal plate. A belt is provided on the surface of the rotating wheel. One end of a rotating shaft is provided in the center hole of the rotating wheel. The other end of the rotating shaft extends to the rear end of the horizontal plate and is locked to the output end of a motor via a coupling. A sliding block is provided at the bottom front of the horizontal plate along the left-right direction. The bottom end of the belt is fixedly connected to the top end of a telescopic cylinder. A connecting block is provided at the output end of the telescopic cylinder. This automated assembly fixture uses a gripper to place the workpiece on the processing base, a cylinder to drive the workpiece for processing, and then the gripper places it in a collection box. This reduces the production line length, avoids occupying excessive space, and is highly practical.

[0004] However, the aforementioned automated assembly fixtures still have the following drawbacks when in use: In the use of the existing technology, the gripper at the lower end of the telescopic cylinder transports the workpieces to be processed one by one to the gripper at the front end of the rectangular plate. The telescopic cylinder extends and retracts, so that the gripper at the left end of the rectangular plate transfers the workpieces to be processed one by one onto the processing seat, which facilitates their assembly. However, in actual use, the above operation is inconvenient to limit the workpieces, which makes it easy for them to shift in position during the assembly process, thereby reducing the assembly efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a modular and combined automated assembly tooling platform for automotive lights, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the existing modular and combined automated assembly tooling platforms for automotive lights do not have a limit function when in use.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a modular combined vehicle lighting automated assembly tooling platform, comprising a tooling platform body and a support frame, wherein the support frame is welded to the top of the tooling platform body;

[0007] A hydraulic cylinder is fixed at the top of the support frame, and a clamping plate is provided at the bottom of the hydraulic cylinder. Guide rods are fixed on both sides of the top of the clamping plate. A storage slot is opened inside the main body of the tooling platform, and a lifting plate is slidably arranged inside the storage slot. A workbench is fixed at the top of the lifting plate, and four limit plates are slidably arranged at the top of the workbench. A limit mechanism is provided inside the workbench, and protective functions are evenly arranged at the bottom of the lifting plate.

[0008] When using the modular combined vehicle light automated assembly tooling platform of this technical solution, a limit mechanism is set up to limit the vehicle lights to be assembled under the action of the limit plate, thereby preventing them from moving in position during the modular combined assembly process, and thus improving the efficiency of vehicle light assembly.

[0009] Furthermore, the protective function includes a fixed column, which is located inside the storage slot. A buffer spring is fixed inside the fixed column, and a damping plate is provided at the top of the buffer spring. A telescopic column is fixed at the top of the damping plate, and the top of the telescopic column is fixedly connected to the lifting plate. A damping block is adhered to the inner wall of the fixed column.

[0010] Furthermore, the buffer springs are provided in multiple sets, each set of buffer springs is distributed at equal intervals, and each set of buffer springs is in a stretched state inside the fixed column.

[0011] Furthermore, the damping blocks are provided in multiple sets, with each set containing multiple damping blocks, and the cross-section of each set of damping blocks is annular.

[0012] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism includes a limiting motor, which is located inside the worktable. A drive shaft is fixed on one side of the limiting motor, and a drive bevel gear is fixed on the outside of the drive shaft. Both sides of the drive bevel gear are meshed with driven bevel gears, and a driven shaft passes through the interior of each driven bevel gear. Two moving blocks are sleeved on the outside of both the drive shaft and the driven shaft.

[0013] Furthermore, the movable blocks are provided in two sets, with two movable blocks in each set, and the cross-section of each set of movable blocks is T-shaped, with the outer edge of each set of movable blocks slidingly fitting against the inner wall of the worktable.

[0014] Furthermore, the limiting plate is provided in two sets, with two limiting plates in each set, and a rubber pad is attached to one side of each limiting plate.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the modular combined vehicle light automated assembly tooling platform not only has a limiting function, but also a protective function;

[0016] By activating the limit motor, the two moving blocks move horizontally relative to each other under the action of the drive shaft, thereby causing the two limit plates to move synchronously. This facilitates the lateral limitation of the headlights that need to be automatically assembled. On the other hand, under the action of the drive bevel gear, driven bevel gear, and driven shaft, the other two moving blocks move horizontally relative to each other, thereby causing the other two limit plates to move synchronously. This facilitates the vertical limitation of the headlights that need to be automatically assembled. Through the above operations, it is easy to limit the headlights that need to be automatically assembled in multiple directions, thereby avoiding positional deviation and improving the efficiency of headlight assembly.

[0017] When the headlight is pressed down by the clamping plate, if the clamping force is large, the lifting plate will move downward. Under the action of the telescopic column, the damping plate will squeeze the buffer spring, thereby buffering the clamping force. The above-mentioned wiping operation is convenient for protecting the headlights that need to be automatically assembled, avoiding the phenomenon of headlight breakage caused by excessive clamping force, thereby improving its practicality.

[0025] 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 with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0026] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0027] Example 1: To address the problem of existing technologies lacking limit function during use, the following solution is disclosed. Please refer to the following for details. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, a modular combined automotive lighting automated assembly tooling platform includes a tooling platform body 1 and a support frame 4. The support frame 4 is welded to the top of the tooling platform body 1, and a hydraulic cylinder 6 is fixed to the top of the support frame 4. A pressure plate 7 is provided at the bottom of the hydraulic cylinder 6. Guide rods 5 are fixed to both sides of the top of the pressure plate 7. A storage groove 2 is provided inside the tooling platform body 1, and a lifting plate 11 is slidably arranged inside the storage groove 2. A worktable 9 is fixed to the top of the lifting plate 11, and four limiting plates 8 are slidably arranged on the top of the worktable 9. There are two sets of limiting plates 8, and each set of limiting plates 8 has two limiting plates 8. A rubber pad is adhered to one side of each set of limiting plates 8. A limiting mechanism 10 is provided inside the worktable 9. Positioning mechanism 10 includes a limit motor 1004, which is located inside the worktable 9. A drive shaft 1003 is fixed to one side of the limit motor 1004, and a drive bevel gear 1006 is fixed to the outside of the drive shaft 1003. Both sides of the drive bevel gear 1006 are meshed with driven bevel gears 1002, and driven shafts 1001 pass through the interior of each driven bevel gear 1002. Two moving blocks 1005 are sleeved on the outside of both the drive shaft 1003 and the driven shaft 1001. There are two sets of moving blocks 1005, with two moving blocks in each set. The cross-section of each set of moving blocks 1005 is T-shaped, and the outer edge of each set of moving blocks 1005 slides against the inner wall of the worktable 9.

[0028] In this embodiment, during use, the vehicle light to be assembled is placed on the workbench 9, and the limit motor 1004 is activated to cause the drive shaft 1003 to rotate. While the drive shaft 1003 is rotating, the two limit plates 8 move horizontally relative to each other under the action of the two moving blocks 1005, which facilitates the lateral limitation and fixation of the vehicle light to be assembled. At the same time, the drive shaft 1003 rotates, causing the drive bevel gear 1006 to rotate, and the driven shaft 1001 rotates under the action of the driven bevel gear 1002. Simultaneously, the other two limit plates 8 move horizontally relative to each other under the action of the other two moving blocks 1005, which facilitates the vertical positioning of the vehicle light to be assembled. The above operation facilitates the limitation of the vehicle light to be assembled, thereby improving the efficiency of vehicle light assembly and enhancing its practicality.

[0029] Example 2: This example differs from Example 1 in that it also has a protective function during use. Therefore, the following solution is disclosed. Please refer to the details. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5As shown, the bottom end of the lifting plate 11 is uniformly provided with protective functions 3. The protective functions 3 include fixed columns 301, which are located inside the storage groove 2. A buffer spring 303 is fixed inside the fixed column 301, and a damping plate 304 is provided at the top of the buffer spring 303. A telescopic column 302 is fixed at the top of the damping plate 304, and the top of the telescopic column 302 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 11. A damping block 305 is adhered to the inner wall of the fixed column 301. Multiple sets of buffer springs 303 are provided, and each set of buffer springs 303 is evenly distributed. Each set of buffer springs 303 is in a stretched state inside the fixed column 301. Multiple sets of damping blocks 305 are provided, and each set of damping blocks 305 has multiple blocks. The cross-section of each set of damping blocks 305 is annular.

[0030] In this embodiment, during use, the hydraulic cylinder 6 is activated to cause the guide rod 5 to descend, thereby pressing the headlight to be assembled. When the pressing force is large, the lifting plate 11 descends, and under the action of the telescopic column 302 and the damping plate 304, the buffer spring 303 is squeezed, thereby buffering the pressing force. The above operation facilitates the protection of the headlight to be assembled, avoiding the phenomenon of headlight breakage caused by excessive pressing force, thereby reducing resource waste and reducing the usage cost of headlight assembly.

[0031] Working Principle: In use, when modular and automated assembly of vehicle lights is required, the lights to be assembled are placed on the workbench 9. The limit motor 1004 is activated, causing the drive shaft 1003 to rotate. Simultaneously, the drive shaft 1003 rotates, causing two moving blocks 1005 to move horizontally relative to each other. This, in turn, causes the two limit plates 8 to move horizontally in sync, facilitating lateral clamping and limiting of the light to be assembled. Furthermore, the rotation of the drive shaft 1003 also causes the drive bevel gear 1006 to rotate. Because the drive bevel gear 1006 and the driven bevel gear 100... 2. Due to the mutual meshing, the driving bevel gear 1006 rotates while the driven bevel gear 1002 rotates synchronously, and the driven bevel gear 1002 rotates while the driven shaft 1001 rotates synchronously. This causes the other two moving blocks 1005 to move horizontally relative to each other, and then causes the other two limiting plates 8 to move horizontally relative to each other. This facilitates the vertical limiting clamping of the headlight. Through the above operation, it is convenient to limit and clamp the headlight to be assembled in multiple directions, thereby avoiding positional deviation during the assembly process, thus improving the accuracy and efficiency of headlight assembly, and reducing the defect rate of headlight assembly.

[0032] Then, by activating the hydraulic cylinder 6, the clamping plate 7 moves downward under the action of the guide rod 5, thus facilitating the clamping of the headlight to be assembled. When the clamping force is large, the worktable 9 moves downward, which in turn causes the lifting plate 11 to move downward. Simultaneously, the lifting plate 11 pushes the telescopic column 302 to move downward, which in turn causes the damping plate 304 to move downward. While the damping plate 304 moves downward, it compresses the buffer spring 303, thus compressing the buffer spring 303 and facilitating the buffering force. Furthermore, the damping block 305, under the action of the damping plate 304, can buffer the self-vibration force generated by the reset of the buffer spring 303, thereby reducing the impact of the self-vibration force on the headlight to be assembled. Through the above operations, the headlight to be assembled can be protected, thereby preventing breakage during the assembly process, reducing the product damage rate, and improving the quality of the assembled headlight.
