Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of car key manufacturing technology, specifically to a car key assembly error prevention and detection device. Background Technology
[0002] In the preparation and assembly area of the automobile final assembly workshop, when performing the critical process of assembling car keys, operators need to retrieve relevant parts from the accompanying material handling carts. Because different models of car keys are extremely similar in appearance, it is almost impossible to distinguish them with the naked eye. Currently, operators rely entirely on their personal memory and experience to differentiate them, which poses a significant risk of incorrect assembly. When the assembled keys enter the subsequent process quality inspection stage, environmental factors such as inadequate workshop lighting and uneven light distribution, coupled with the small size and indistinct features of the keys themselves, make it difficult for quality inspectors to accurately and quickly identify the correct key model through manual visual inspection alone. This limitation can easily lead to missed quality issues, resulting in defective products flowing into the next process or even ultimately being delivered to the customer. Furthermore, operators need to maintain a bent-over posture for extended periods during inspection. This ergonomically unfriendly posture not only increases the labor intensity of employees but may also lead to occupational health problems in the long run. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model provides a car key assembly error prevention and detection device, which aims to solve the risk of incorrect assembly caused by similar models during the car key assembly process, as well as the problem of missed detection caused by lighting and component size issues during quality inspection. At the same time, it improves the working posture of operators and reduces labor intensity.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0005] A car key assembly error-proofing detection device is provided, which is equipped with a detection base. The detection base has a square structure, and the top of the detection base is provided with multiple sets of key component detection slots. Each set of key component detection slots is equally spaced. The detection base is equipped with a detection auxiliary ring light and a detection magnifying glass. The detection auxiliary ring light and the detection magnifying glass are slidably installed on one end of the detection base and can be stored inside the detection base.
[0006] Preferably, the key component detection slots are configured in four groups, with each group having a different key detection length type, a different key detection width type, and a different key detection shape type.
[0007] Preferably, each set of key component detection slots has a type identification sticker on its top, and the type identification stickers below the corresponding key component detection slots match each other.
[0008] Preferably, the key assembly detection slot includes a key front cover slot, a key back cover slot, a key body slot, and a key chip slot.
[0009] Preferably, one end of the detection base has a slot, the detection auxiliary ring light and the detection magnifying glass are mounted on a slide rod, the slide rod is slidably mounted in the slot, and the detection auxiliary ring light and the detection magnifying glass are slidably extended out or stored inside the detection base through the slide rod.
[0010] Preferably, the slide bar is divided into a first base rod, a second bending rod, and a third extension arm. The second bending rod is disposed between the first base rod and the third extension arm. One end of the second bending rod is rotatably connected to the first base rod through a pin, and the other end of the second bending rod is rotatably connected to the third extension arm through a pin.
[0011] Preferably, the detection auxiliary ring light is in the shape of a ring and has a hollow structure, the detection magnifying glass is disposed in the hollow position of the detection auxiliary ring light, and multiple LED beads are arranged around one end face of the detection auxiliary ring light.
[0012] Preferably, the third extension arm is a telescopic base rod, and one end of the detection auxiliary ring light is provided with a connecting rod, which is slidably installed inside the third extension arm.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, this utility model provides a car key assembly error-proofing detection device, which includes a detection base 1. The detection base 1 has a square structure, providing a stable support foundation for the entire device. The top of the detection base 1 is provided with multiple sets of key component detection slots, each set of key component detection slots being equally spaced. The detection base 1 is equipped with a detection auxiliary ring light 2 and a detection magnifying glass 3, which are slidably mounted on one end of the detection base 1 and can be stored inside the detection base 1.
[0024] Specifically, the key component detection slots are set into four groups, each with different key detection length, width, and shape type. They include a key front cover slot 5, a key back cover slot 6, a key body slot 7, and a key chip slot 8. Each group of key component detection slots has a type identification sticker 4 on its top, which matches the type of the corresponding key component detection slot below it.
[0025] The detection auxiliary components include a detection auxiliary ring light 2 and a detection magnifying glass 3. The detection auxiliary ring light 2 is circular in shape and has a hollow structure, with multiple LED beads 13 arranged around one end face; the detection magnifying glass 3 is located in the hollow position of the detection auxiliary ring light 2. Both are mounted on a slide rod and are slidably installed in the slot 9 of the detection base 1, and can slide out or be stored inside the detection base 1.
[0026] The slide bar consists of a first base rod 10, a second bending rod 11, and a third extension arm 12. The second bending rod 11 is located between the first base rod 10 and the third extension arm 12. One end of the second bending rod is rotatably connected to the first base rod 10 via a pin, and the other end is rotatably connected to the third extension arm 12 via a pin. The third extension arm 12 is a telescopic base rod, and a connecting rod 14 is provided at one end of the detection auxiliary ring light 2. The connecting rod 14 is slidably installed inside the third extension arm 12.
[0027] Working principle: During use, the operator places the various components of the car key, such as the front cover, back cover, body, and chip, into the corresponding slots on the detection base 1: front cover slot 5, back cover slot 6, body slot 7, and chip slot 8. Since the length, width, and shape of each set of key component detection slots are different and matched to a specific model of car key component, if a component can be successfully placed into the corresponding detection slot, it initially indicates that the component model may be correct; if it cannot be placed, it indicates that the component model is incorrect.
[0028] Simultaneously, the auxiliary ring light 2 and the magnifying glass 3 can be slid out from the detection base 1 via a sliding rod. The first base rod 10, the second bending rod 11, and the third extension arm 12 of the sliding rod are rotatably connected by a pin, and the third extension arm 12 is a telescopic base rod. The connecting rod 14 of the auxiliary ring light 2 can slide within the third extension arm 12. The operator can adjust the angle and length of the sliding rod as needed to align the magnifying glass 3 with the component to be tested. When the auxiliary ring light 2 is turned on, its surrounding LED beads 13 provide sufficient and uniform light. The detailed features of the component can then be carefully observed through the magnifying glass 3, such as whether there are scratches or whether the assembly is in place, to further confirm whether there are any assembly errors in the component. Regarding the technical description of the circuit structure: such as the layout and design of the corresponding electronic control system, the layout and design of the switching components, etc., those skilled in the art can make adaptive adjustments to the existing scheme according to the actual situation to meet the control requirements. Since those skilled in the art can understand and implement these adjustments, they will not be elaborated further here.
[0029] In summary, the overall operation process of this utility model device is as follows: During use, place the detection base 1 on a stable workbench to ensure device stability. Check whether the detection auxiliary ring light 2 and the detection magnifying glass 3 can slide out and retract normally via the slide bar, and whether the LED beads 13 of the detection auxiliary ring light 2 can emit light normally. According to the indication on the type label 4 on the top of the key component detection slot, accurately place each component of the car key to be tested—namely, the front cover, back cover, body, and chip—into the corresponding front cover slot 5, back cover slot 6, body slot 7, and chip slot 8, respectively. Observe whether the components can be smoothly placed into the corresponding detection slots. If a component cannot be placed, it indicates that the component model is incompatible with the detection slot, posing a risk of incorrect installation; the component needs to be replaced for inspection immediately. If a more detailed inspection of the components is required, slide the detection auxiliary ring light 2 and the detection magnifying glass 3 out of the detection base 1 using the slide bar. Adjust the angles of the second bending rod 11 with the first base rod 10 and the third extension arm 12, as well as the extension length of the third extension arm 12, so that the inspection magnifying glass 3 is aligned with the component to be inspected. Turn on the inspection auxiliary ring light 2, and use the sufficient light it provides to carefully observe the details of the component through the inspection magnifying glass 3 to confirm whether there are any assembly defects. After the inspection is completed, turn off the inspection auxiliary ring light 2, and slide the inspection auxiliary ring light 2 and the inspection magnifying glass 3 back into the inspection base 1 via the slide rod for future use.
