Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle assembly, and in particular to a flexible clamping mechanism for instrument panel tube beams. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid changes and development of the automotive industry, large-screen, multi-screen dashboards with AI functions that enable human-machine interaction have become the key factor for modern car users to participate in the buying and selling process. However, existing automotive dashboard assembly technology can no longer meet the assembly requirements of advanced and novel dashboards that integrate multiple modules into one assembly.

[0003] The rise of China's new energy vehicles and the increasingly fierce competition in the global automotive market, coupled with the continued existence of unstable external factors, have led to a fierce involution of competition in the automotive industry. Major automobile manufacturers are integrating their entire industrial chain systems to reduce costs, and various car models are assembling dashboards (including left and right steering) on ​​flexible collinear lines to maximize profits.

[0004] The new type of instrument differs from the traditional tube beam clamping method. The tube beam of a traditional car instrument has no instrument panel covering the front, and the clamping mechanism can directly pneumatically clamp the instrument tube beam. The new instrument has an integrated instrument panel, and there are various types of brackets on the tube beam that need to be avoided. The clamping space is very small. The traditional clamping method cannot avoid the instrument panel, and the clamping mechanism has a large space, which makes it impossible to clamp the new instrument. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a flexible clamping mechanism for instrument panel beams, which reduces the space required for clamping mechanisms and meets the requirements for clamping new automotive instruments.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A flexible clamping mechanism for a dashboard tube beam, comprising,

[0008] A support frame includes two support plates and a support base; the two support plates are arranged in parallel and connected at their rear ends by a connecting plate; the front end of the support base is connected to the rear end of the support plate; the support plate is provided with an arc-shaped guide groove, and the support plate is provided with shaft holes at the front end, middle and rear end of the arc-shaped guide groove respectively; guide rollers are provided in the shaft holes opposite to each other on the two support plates; a receiving groove is provided in the lower middle part of the support plate.

[0009] The rotating gripper is arc-shaped and movably mounted on a guide roller between two support plates; a guide shaft passes through the middle of the rotating gripper, and the two sides of the guide shaft are respectively inserted into the arc-shaped guide grooves of the two support plates.

[0010] Drive link assembly, including,

[0011] Two first connecting rods, one end of which is connected to both ends of a guide shaft, and the other end of which is connected to both ends of a movable connecting shaft;

[0012] Two second connecting rods, one end of which is coaxially connected to both ends of a movable connecting shaft, and the other end of which is connected to both ends of a fixed shaft, which is fixed to the rear of the two support plates.

[0013] The drive cylinder has its rear body connected to the rear support seat of the support frame, and its piston rod end connected to one end of the movable connecting shaft.

[0014] A clamping block is disposed within the receiving groove.

[0015] Preferably, two shaft holes are symmetrically provided on both sides of the front end and middle of the arc-shaped guide groove on the support plate, and guide rollers are provided on each side. The rotating gripper is movably disposed on the guide roller between the two support plates.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0017] This invention utilizes the arc-shaped guide groove on the support plate and the cooperation of several guide rollers between the two support plates to make the rotating gripper rotate and confine it within the arc-shaped guide groove, thereby reducing the space required for the clamping mechanism and satisfying the clamping requirements of the new instrument.

[0018] This invention revolutionizes the existing clamping technology for instrument panel beams, replacing the single-type, single-series clamping technology of existing automotive instrument panel beams with a flexible and adaptable clamping system. It overcomes the bottleneck of limited clamping space in existing technologies, which cannot meet the requirements of instrument panel switching clamping for integrated assemblies with powerful AI exterior function modules. It also eliminates the complexity and difficulty in switching compatible vehicle styles, enabling flexible instrument panel assembly technology to switch between different states. This improves working conditions, reduces costs, and effectively achieves precise compatibility with the clamping mechanism through the equipment's drive extension and lateral movement adjustment, thus enabling quick switching and accurate matching of different instrument panels.
