Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inspection tool technology, specifically to an inspection tool for automotive parts. Background Technology

[0002] In the automotive manufacturing and repair industry, the quality inspection of auto parts is a crucial step in ensuring vehicle performance and safety. Automotive parts are diverse in type, shape, and structure. Some parts, such as rear reflectors, require inspection not only for their appearance and dimensions but also for performance indicators such as airtightness. Traditional parts inspection methods have many shortcomings.

[0003] On the one hand, the methods for fixing components are relatively simple, usually involving manual bolt tightening or simple clamps. This method is not only cumbersome and time-consuming, but also the fixing effect is unstable, easily leading to inaccurate test results due to loosening of components during the inspection process. For example, when inspecting the rear reflector of a vehicle, manual fixing may cause the reflector to shift during the inspection process, affecting the accuracy of its appearance inspection and dimensional measurement.

[0004] On the other hand, airtightness testing usually requires additional equipment and complex operating procedures. Traditional airtightness testing methods involve placing components individually in a sealing testing device for testing. This approach not only increases the investment cost of testing equipment but also extends the testing cycle. Furthermore, because components need to be moved multiple times during the testing process, it also increases the risk of component damage.

[0005] Therefore, an automotive parts inspection tool is needed to improve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an inspection tool for automotive parts to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an automotive parts inspection tool, comprising an inspection tool body, an installation groove on the surface of the inspection tool body, installation holes on both sides of the bottom of the installation groove, a through hole at the bottom of the installation groove, and an inspection mechanism installed on the other side of the inspection tool body.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the testing mechanism includes a mounting box, with rotating cylinders mounted on both sides of the inside of the mounting box via bearings, and bolts fixed on one side of the rotating cylinders corresponding to mounting holes.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a motor is fixedly provided on one side of the mounting box, and a gear is provided at the output end of the motor.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a gear one is fixedly provided at the other end of the rotating drum, and gear one is meshed with gear two.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an airtightness testing cylinder is fixedly provided on the outside of the mounting box. The airtightness testing cylinder has an air inlet at its upper end and an air outlet on one side of the airtightness testing cylinder corresponding to the through hole.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. By using a motor-driven gear transmission to drive bolts, the parts are fixed to the bottom of the mounting slot. This automated fixing method is not only simple and quick to operate, reducing the time and labor intensity of manual operation, but also ensures that the parts are in a stable position during the testing process, avoiding loosening or displacement of parts due to insecure manual fixing, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the testing.

[0014] II. This inspection tool integrates airtightness testing with the appearance and dimensional inspection of parts. The airtightness testing cylinder fits tightly with the airtightness testing hole of the part, and air is injected into the part through the air inlet, enabling rapid and accurate detection of the airtightness of the part. This integrated design not only reduces the investment cost of testing equipment, but also avoids the cumbersome process of transferring parts between different testing equipment, greatly improving testing efficiency.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automotive parts inspection tool, including an inspection body 1, an installation groove 2 on the surface of the inspection body 1, installation holes 5 on both sides of the bottom of the installation groove 2, and a through hole 4 at the bottom of the installation groove 2. A detection mechanism 3 is installed on the other side of the inspection body 1. When it is necessary to inspect automotive parts, such as the rear reflector of a vehicle, the reflector is placed in the groove 2 of the inspection body 1, and the automotive parts to be inspected are placed in the groove 2 of the inspection body 1. The motor 10 on one side of the mounting box 12 is started. The output end of the motor 10 drives the gear 2 9 to rotate. Since the gear 1 8 is meshed with the gear 2 9, the rotation of the gear 2 9 will drive the gear 1 8 to rotate synchronously. The gear 1 8 is fixed at one end of the rotating cylinder 7. Therefore, the rotation of the gear 1 8 will drive the rotating cylinder 7 to rotate inside the mounting box 12 through the bearing, thereby driving the bolt 6 to fix the parts to the bottom of the installation groove 2, ensuring that the parts are stable during the inspection process.

[0027] As an example of this utility model, the testing mechanism 3 includes a mounting box 12. Inside the mounting box 12, rotating cylinders 7 are mounted on both sides via bearings. A bolt 6 is fixedly mounted on one side of the rotating cylinder 7 corresponding to the mounting hole 5.

[0028] As an example of this utility model, a motor 10 is fixedly provided on one side of the mounting box 12, and a gear 9 is provided at the output end of the motor 10.

[0029] As an example of this utility model, a gear 8 is fixedly provided at the other end of the rotating drum 7, and the gear 8 meshes with the gear 9.

[0030] As an example of this utility model, an airtightness testing cylinder 11 is fixedly provided on the outside of the mounting box 12. An air inlet is provided at the upper end of the airtightness testing cylinder 11, and an air outlet is provided on one side of the airtightness testing cylinder 11 corresponding to the through hole 4. After installation, the airtightness testing cylinder 11 is in close contact with the airtightness testing hole of the reflector. Air is filled into the interior through the air inlet of the airtightness testing cylinder 11, and the gas enters the interior of the component through the air outlet of the airtightness testing cylinder 11.

[0031] Working principle: When it is necessary to inspect automotive parts, such as the rear reflector of a vehicle, the reflector is placed in the mounting slot 2 of the inspection fixture body 1. The motor 10 on one side of the mounting box 12 is started. The output end of the motor 10 drives the second gear 9 to rotate. Since the first gear 8 is meshed with the second gear 9, the rotation of the second gear 9 will drive the first gear 8 to rotate synchronously. The first gear 8 is fixed at one end of the rotating drum 7. Therefore, the rotation of the first gear 8 will drive the rotating drum 7 to rotate inside the mounting box 12 through the bearing, which will drive the bolt 6 to fix the part at the bottom of the mounting slot 2, ensuring its stable position during the inspection process.

[0032] After installation, the airtightness testing cylinder 11 is in close contact with the airtightness testing hole of the reflector. Air is injected into the cylinder through the air inlet and enters the component through the air outlet.

[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
