Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of height detection technology, and in particular to a U-shaped buckle height detection device. Background Technology

[0002] U-shaped clip height detection devices are widely used in automotive parts manufacturing, electronic equipment assembly, medical device production, and other fields. In automotive manufacturing, they can ensure that the height of various pipeline fixing clips in the engine compartment meets the standards, ensuring the stability of the wiring installation. In electronic equipment assembly, they can accurately detect the height of the motherboard fixing clips, avoiding poor assembly caused by clip size errors.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese Publication No. CN220339261U discloses a height detection device for a U-shaped buckle. Addressing the problem that existing height detection devices can only detect the overall height of a U-shaped buckle and cannot simultaneously detect both ends, this invention proposes the following solution: It includes a detection platform, a U-shaped buckle, and a detection component. The U-shaped buckle is placed on the detection platform, and the detection component is mounted on the platform and connected to the U-shaped buckle. The detection component includes two detection back plates and two detection plates. The two detection back plates are slidably mounted on the detection platform, and each of the two detection back plates has a movable hole on one side. The detection plates are slidably mounted within the corresponding movable holes. This height detection device can detect the height of both ends of the U-shaped buckle separately, directly detecting the height deviation of the U-shaped buckle.

[0004] The aforementioned patent specification mentions that "the detection backplate drives the corresponding detection plate to move, and the spacing between the two detection plates can be adjusted." Devices with a single fixing method may cause damage due to their inability to adapt to the characteristics of the buckle material. For example, if a rigid clamp applies excessive pressure to a plastic buckle, it may cause the buckle edge to crack or deform. Conversely, if a metal buckle is fixed too loosely, repeated testing and friction may cause surface scratches. These damages not only affect the appearance quality of the buckle but also lead to a decrease in its mechanical properties. To address the above problems, a U-shaped buckle height detection device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a U-shaped buckle height detection device, which solves the problem that the buckle height detection device cannot adaptively install the buckle.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a U-shaped buckle height detection device, including a workbench. Positioning rings are fixedly connected to the top left and right sides of the workbench. Adaptive mounting mechanisms are fixedly connected to the inner left and right sides of the positioning rings. A mounting base is fixedly connected to the top rear side of the workbench. A mounting guide rail is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting base. A position adjustment mechanism is slidably connected to the outside of the mounting guide rail.

[0007] The adaptive installation mechanism includes a mounting block, which is externally fixedly connected to the left and right sides inside the positioning ring. A second fixing rod is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting block, and a connecting frame is fixedly connected to the outside of the second fixing rod. A connecting shaft is fixedly connected inside the connecting frame, and a rotating plate is rotatably connected to the outside of the connecting shaft. A connecting frame is rotatably connected to the other end of the rotating plate, and a damping block is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting frame. A mounting clamp is slidably connected to the outside of the damping block, and a reset component is provided inside the mounting clamp.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0009] The reset assembly includes a slide groove, the interior of which is formed outside the mounting clamp. A fixing rod is fixedly connected inside the slide groove, and a reset spring is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the fixing rod.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] The position adjustment mechanism includes a sliding mounting ring, which is slidably connected to the outside of the mounting guide rail. Sliding locking rods are slidably connected to both the left and right sides of the sliding mounting ring. A cavity is opened inside the sliding mounting ring, and a limit plate is slidably connected inside the cavity. A mounting spring is sleeved on the outside of the sliding locking rod.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] A pull plate is fixedly connected to the outside of the sliding lever, and the outside of the sliding lever is slidably connected to the inside of the cavity;

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The mounting guide rail has multiple slots on its outer left and right sides, and the outer side of the sliding rod is engaged with the outer side of the slots.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] The limiting plate is internally fixedly connected to the outside of the sliding rod, and the outside of the limiting plate is slidably connected to the inside of the mounting guide rail;

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0019] A cylinder is fixedly connected to the outer front side of the sliding mounting ring, and a detector is fixedly connected to the drive end of the cylinder. Rubber pads are fixedly connected to the four outer corners of the workbench.

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0021] One end of the mounting spring is fixedly connected to the outside of the limiting plate, and the other end of the mounting spring is fixedly connected to the inside of the cavity.

[0022] In this invention, the mounting plate is pressed by a snap-fit ​​mechanism, which causes the damping block to slide and compress the return spring, resulting in deformation. The return spring's rebound force ensures the mounting plate fits tightly against the snap-fit. This achieves automatic adaptation to snap-fit ​​sizes, simplifying the installation process. Simultaneously, the elastic clamping provides stable fixing force, preventing loosening and improving installation reliability and convenience.

[0023] In this invention, pulling the pull plate causes the sliding rod and the limiting plate to slide, and squeezing the installation spring causes the rod to separate from the slot. The sliding installation ring can then be used to adjust the position of the detector. After releasing the pull plate, the spring rebounds and causes the rod to lock into the slot for fixation. This method achieves convenient adjustment and precise locking of the detector's position. It is simple and efficient to operate, and the spring structure ensures a firm fixation, meeting the position adjustment needs of different detection scenarios and improving the flexibility and stability of use.

[0030] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a U-shaped buckle height detection device, including a workbench 1. The workbench 1 provides a stable working platform for the entire detection device, supporting and fixing other components. Positioning rings 2 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the top of the workbench 1. The positioning rings 2 perform preliminary positioning of the U-shaped buckle, ensuring the positional accuracy of the buckle during the detection process and providing a basis for subsequent height detection. Adaptive mounting mechanisms 3 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides inside the positioning rings 2. A mounting base 4 is fixedly connected to the rear top of the workbench 1. The mounting base 4 provides stability for the mounting guide rail 5. The mounting base 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting guide rail 5 to ensure that the guide rail will not shift or shake during operation. The mounting guide rail 5 provides a sliding track for the position adjustment mechanism 6, so that it can slide smoothly on the guide rail and achieve precise adjustment of the detection position. The position adjustment mechanism 6 is slidably connected to the outside of the mounting guide rail 5. The position adjustment mechanism 6 includes a sliding mounting ring 61. The sliding mounting ring 61 provides a mounting base for components such as the sliding lever 62, so that it can slide on the mounting guide rail 5 and achieve the position adjustment function. The sliding mounting ring 61 is slidably connected to the outside of the mounting guide rail 5.

[0032] Sliding mounting ring 61 has sliding locking rods 62 slidably connected to its left and right sides. The function of the sliding locking rods 62 is to fix the sliding mounting ring 61 at a specific position on the guide rail 5 by engaging with the locking grooves 7 on the guide rail when a locking position is required, ensuring positional stability during testing. The sliding mounting ring 61 has an internal cavity 63, which provides movement space for the limiting plate 64 and the mounting spring 65, ensuring their normal operation. The limiting plate 64 is slidably connected inside the cavity 63. The function of 64 is to limit the sliding range of the sliding lever 62 and prevent it from detaching from the cavity 63 during sliding. At the same time, it provides a support point for the mounting spring 65. The sliding lever 62 is fitted with a mounting spring 65. By pulling the pull plate 66, the elastic force of the mounting spring 65 can be overcome, causing the locking teeth of the sliding lever 62 to disengage from the tooth groove on the mounting guide rail 5, thereby realizing the sliding adjustment of the sliding mounting ring 61 on the guide rail. The pull plate 66 is fixedly connected to the outside of the sliding lever 62, and the outside of the sliding lever 62 is slidably connected to the inside of the cavity 63.

[0033] The adaptive installation mechanism 3 includes a mounting block 31, which is externally fixedly connected to the left and right sides inside the positioning ring 2. A fixing rod 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting block 31, and a connecting frame 33 is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixing rod 32. The connecting frame 33 provides an installation and support framework for components such as the connecting shaft 34 and the rotating plate 35, connecting the components in an orderly manner. The connecting shaft 34 is fixedly connected inside the connecting frame 33, serving as a support shaft for the rotation of the rotating plate 35 and providing a rotation center for the rotating plate 35, allowing it to rotate flexibly within the connecting frame 33. This enables adaptive adjustment of U-shaped buckles of different sizes. The rotating plate 35 is rotatably connected to the outside of the connecting shaft 34, and the rotating plate 35 is used in the adaptive installation... Mechanism 3 plays a role in force transmission and angle adjustment. When the size of the U-shaped buckle changes, it rotates to change its own angle, driving the connecting frame 36 and subsequent components to move, thereby achieving adaptive clamping of the U-shaped buckle. The other end of the rotating plate 35 is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 36. The function of the connecting frame 36 is to convert the rotational motion of the rotating plate 35 into the linear motion of the mounting clamp 38. At the same time, it plays a connecting and transition role between the rotating plate 35 and the damping block 37, ensuring smooth force transmission. The external connection of the connecting frame 36 is fixedly connected to the damping block 37. The function of the damping block 37 is to provide buffer damping force when the mounting clamp 38 clamps the U-shaped buckle, to avoid the mounting clamp 38 causing rigid impact on the U-shaped buckle, and to protect the surface of the U-shaped buckle from damage.

[0034] Simultaneously, the clamping action of the mounting plate 38 is made smoother and gentler. The external sliding connection of the damping block 37 is the mounting plate 38. The function of the mounting plate 38 is to directly contact and clamp the U-shaped buckle. With the coordinated action of other components of the adaptive mounting mechanism 3, the clamping position and force are adjusted according to the size change of the U-shaped buckle to achieve precise positioning of the U-shaped buckle. The mounting plate 38 has a reset assembly 39 inside. The reset assembly 39 includes a slide groove 391. The slide groove 391 provides installation space and movement track for the fixed rod 392 and the reset spring 393, ensuring the normal operation of each component of the reset assembly 39. The slide groove 391 is opened inside the mounting plate 38. Externally, a fixing rod 392 is fixedly connected inside the slide groove 391, allowing the return spring 393 to be stably sleeved on its outside, while restricting the movement direction of the return spring 393, ensuring that the elastic force of the return spring 393 can accurately act on the mounting clamp 38. The return spring 393 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the fixing rod 392. When the mounting clamp 38 is subjected to external force to clamp the U-shaped buckle, the return spring 393 is further compressed; when the external force disappears, the return spring 393 releases its elastic potential energy, pushing the mounting clamp 38 to slide along the slide groove 391, so that it automatically resets and returns to its initial state, so as to adaptively clamp U-shaped buckles of different sizes next time.

[0035] Reference Figures 2 to 4 Multiple slots 7 are provided on the left and right sides of the mounting rail 5. The slots 7 provide positioning and clamping points for the sliding rod 62. When the sliding mounting ring 61 slides to the appropriate position, the teeth of the sliding rod 62 can be inserted into the slots 7 to lock the position of the sliding mounting ring 61. The outside of the sliding rod 62 is clamped to the outside of the slots 7. The inside of the limiting plate 64 is fixedly connected to the outside of the sliding rod 62, and the outside of the limiting plate 64 is slidably connected to the inside of the mounting rail 5. A cylinder 8 is fixedly connected to the front of the outside of the sliding mounting ring 61. The telescopic rod of the cylinder 8 extends and drives the detector 9 to move to the detection position. After the detection is completed;

[0036] Cylinder 8 retracts, bringing detector 9 back to its initial position. This connection structure allows detector 9 to accurately approach and move away from the U-shaped buckle under the drive of cylinder 8. Detector 9, a high-precision laser rangefinder or displacement sensor, is fixed to the end of the telescopic rod of cylinder 8 via a dedicated mounting bracket. Rubber pads 10 are fixedly connected to the four outer corners of the worktable 1. The rubber pads 10 are made of highly elastic, wear-resistant natural or synthetic rubber and are attached to the four corners of the worktable 1 with strong adhesive or bolts. The bottom of the rubber pads 10 is designed with anti-slip texture to increase friction with the ground and prevent the worktable 1 from sliding during use. One end of the mounting spring 65 is fixedly connected to the outside of the limiting plate 64, and the other end of the mounting spring 65 is fixedly connected to the inside of the cavity 63.

[0037] Working principle: When the buckle is self-adaptively fixed, the buckle is placed inside the two mounting plates 38. As the buckle is placed inward, it can press against the mounting plates 38. This allows the damping block 37 outside the mounting plates 38 to slide outside the fixing rod 392. The damping block 37 then presses against the return spring 393, causing the return spring 393 to deform. The force of the return spring 393 then allows the mounting plates 38 to fit tightly against the buckle, thus achieving self-adaptive installation of the buckle.

[0038] When adjusting the position of the detector 9, by pulling the pull plate 66, the pull plate 66 drives the limiting plate 64 to slide inside the cavity 63 via the sliding latch 62. This allows the limiting plate 64 to compress the mounting spring 65, causing the mounting spring 65 to deform. This causes the sliding latch 62 to separate from the slot 7 on the outside of the mounting guide rail 5, allowing the sliding mounting ring 61 to slide outside the mounting guide rail 5. After adjusting the position of the detector 9, by releasing the pull plate 66, the mounting spring 65 rebounds, allowing the sliding latch 62 to engage with the slot 7 on the outside of the mounting guide rail 5, thus achieving the position adjustment of the detector 9.

[0039] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely one or more preferred embodiments of this application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this application. Those skilled in the art can understand that all or part of the processes for implementing the above embodiments and equivalent changes made in accordance with the claims of this application still fall within the scope of this application.
