Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of engine assembly technology, and in particular to a sub-assembly tray for a subframe powertrain. Background Technology
[0002] An engine tray is a device used to position and support the engine during the assembly of engine accessories and powertrain on an engine pre-assembly line. The assembly of the transmission and engine is a necessary step in every vehicle's production; during assembly, the engine must first be placed on an assembly tray before the transmission can be assembled.
[0003] However, the oil pan sizes of different engine models are not the same. When multiple engine models are produced on the same line, at least one support needs to be replaced to meet production requirements. This situation will significantly affect the production cycle. At the same time, frequent support replacements will accelerate the damage rate of the supports. The current transmission and engine combined mounting tray can no longer meet production needs. As the number of automotive series platforms undertaken by the automotive assembly plant continues to increase, the variety of models that can be assembled on the same platform is also increasing. This requires that the same engine tray can support multiple engine models. Utility Model Content
