Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sunroof guide rail oiling technology, specifically to an automatic oiling device for automotive sunroof guide rails. Background Technology
[0002] The sunroof of a passenger car is moved on the sunroof rail by the opening and closing mechanism. In order to ensure that the sunroof glass moves smoothly on the rail, a uniform oil layer needs to be applied to the inside surface of the rail to reduce friction and eliminate noise.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN220634996U discloses an oiling device for automotive sunroof guide rails, relating to the field of automotive sunroof technology. The device includes a clamping structure; a lifting structure is movably connected to the clamping structure, and a fixing structure is fixedly connected to the lifting structure. The lifting structure is movably connected to a painting mechanism via the fixing structure. The painting mechanism includes: a housing, rollers, a fixing rod B, a sealing plate, and sliding rods. Rollers are movably connected to the bottom of the housing, and the fixing rod B is fixedly connected inside the housing. The sealing plate is slidably connected to the housing and the fixing rod B, and sliding rods are fixedly connected to both ends of the sealing plate. The sliding rods are also slidably connected to the housing. When the rollers are in contact with the guide rail, the sealing plate can be automatically raised to the top via the sliding rods, causing lubricant to drip onto the rollers and simultaneously spreading the lubricant evenly onto the guide rail.
[0004] The device uses a sliding rod to lift the sunroof rails, then lubricates them with liquid from the roller surface. However, during the lifting process, the bottom of the sliding rod remains at the same level as the bottom of the roller, and the sliding rod is located on opposite sides of the roller. Therefore, the sliding rod on one side of the roller pushes the applied oil, resulting in uneven distribution of lubricant inside the sunroof rails. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, an automatic oiling device for automotive sunroof guide rails is provided. This device utilizes an electromagnetic slide rail and slider to move an oiling plate. Simultaneously, a top block on the top of the oiling plate moves along with it. The inclined edge of the top block presses against an H-shaped connecting block, causing the H-shaped connecting block to move upwards. The bottom pressing block and the blocking component of the H-shaped connecting block also move upwards, moving the blocking component away from the outlet of the reservoir. At this point, the lubricating oil inside the reservoir drips through the outlet onto the oiling rollers. These oiling rollers then evenly coat the moving sunroof guide rails.
[0006] To address the problems of existing technologies, this utility model provides an automatic oiling device for automotive sunroof guide rails, comprising a base, an oiling plate movably mounted on the top of the base, clamping components for clamping the sunroof guide rails on both sides of the top of the oiling plate, support seats on both sides of the top of the base, and a reservoir for storing lubricating oil on one side of each of the two support seats, with a roller cover connected to the bottom of the reservoir, and an oiling roller for applying oil to the sunroof guide rails rotatably mounted inside the roller cover.
[0007] Preferably, the liquid storage tank is internally equipped with symmetrical connecting rods, with an H-shaped connecting block at the top of the connecting rod and a pressing block at the bottom. The bottom of the pressing block is equipped with a plug for sealing the liquid outlet of the liquid storage tank. A compression spring is sleeved on the outside of the connecting rod, with one end of the compression spring connected to the bottom of the H-shaped connecting block and the other end of the compression spring connected to the top of the liquid storage tank.
[0008] Preferably, the top of the storage tank is connected to an inlet pipe for adding lubricating oil.
[0009] Preferably, the top of the oiling plate is provided with a top block for pressing the H-shaped connecting block.
[0010] Preferably, the clamping assembly includes a fastening plate disposed on the top of the oiling plate, a support block disposed on the side wall of the oiling plate, a screw rotatably disposed inside the support block, a pressing block rotatably disposed at one end of the screw, limit blocks disposed on both sides of the bottom of the pressing block, and a limiting groove for the limit blocks to move on the top of the oiling plate.
[0011] Preferably, an electromagnetic slide rail is provided on the top of the base, and an electromagnetic slider is slidably provided on the outside of the electromagnetic slide rail, with the top of the electromagnetic slider connected to the bottom of the oiling plate.
[0012] The advantages of this utility model compared to the prior art are:
[0013] 1. The electromagnetic slide rail, in conjunction with the electromagnetic slider, drives the oiling plate to move. At the same time, the top block on the top of the oiling plate also moves accordingly. The inclined edge of the top block presses against the H-shaped connecting block, causing the H-shaped connecting block to move upward. The lower pressing block and the blocking part at the bottom of the H-shaped connecting block also move upward, moving the blocking part away from the outlet of the liquid storage tank. At this time, the lubricating oil inside the liquid storage tank will fall onto the oiling roller through the outlet. The oiling roller can be used to evenly apply oil to the moving sunroof guide rail.
[0014] 2. By rotating the screw, the extrusion block is driven to clamp the sunroof guide rail, preventing it from shaking randomly during oiling, which would prevent effective oiling. After oiling is completed, the top block will disengage from the H-shaped connecting block. At this time, the H-shaped connecting block will move upward under the action of the compression spring, which will also drive the plug to block the outlet of the liquid tank, preventing the waste of lubricating oil.

[0022] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model provides:
[0024] An automatic oiling device for automotive sunroof guide rails includes a base 1, an oiling plate 3 movably mounted on the top of the base 1, clamping components for clamping the sunroof guide rails on both sides of the top of the oiling plate 3, support seats 2 on both sides of the top of the base 1, and a reservoir 6 for storing lubricating oil on one side of each of the two support seats 2, with a roller cover 14 connected to the bottom of the reservoir 6, and an oiling roller 15 for applying oil to the sunroof guide rails rotatably mounted inside the roller cover 14.
[0025] The sunroof guide rail can be clamped by the clamping component to prevent it from shaking during oiling, which would prevent the sunroof guide rail from being effectively oiled. Then, the oiling roller 15 is used to apply oil to the sunroof guide rail.
[0026] like Figure 5 As shown, the internal structure of the liquid storage tank 6 is equipped with symmetrical connecting rods 17. The top of the connecting rod 17 is provided with an H-shaped connecting block 7, and the bottom of the connecting rod 17 is provided with a pressing block 18. The bottom of the pressing block 18 is provided with a blocking component 19 for sealing the liquid outlet of the liquid storage tank 6. A compression spring 16 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting rod 17. One end of the compression spring 16 is connected to the bottom of the H-shaped connecting block 7, and the other end of the compression spring 16 is connected to the top of the liquid storage tank 6.
[0027] As the H-shaped connecting block 7 moves upward, the pressing block 18 and the blocking component 19 at the bottom of the H-shaped connecting block 7 also move upward, causing the blocking component 19 to move away from the outlet of the liquid storage tank 6. At this time, the lubricating oil inside the liquid storage tank 6 will fall onto the oiling roller 15 through the outlet. The oiling roller 15 can be used to evenly apply oil to the moving sunroof guide rail.
[0028] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the top of the storage tank 6 is connected to an inlet pipe for adding lubricating oil.
[0029] The inlet pipe allows for easy addition of lubricating oil to the inside of the liquid storage tank 6, preventing insufficient lubricating oil inside the tank and thus preventing the sunroof guide rail from being unable to be lubricated.
[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the top of the oiling plate 3 is provided with a top block 5 for pressing the H-shaped connecting block 7.
[0031] The H-shaped connecting block 7 is pressed by the inclined edge of the top block 5, causing the H-shaped connecting block 7 to move upward.
[0032] like Figure 3As shown, the clamping assembly includes a fastening plate 9 set on the top of the oiling plate 3, a support block 12 set on the side wall of the oiling plate 3, a screw 11 rotatably set inside the support block 12, a pressing block 10 rotatably set at one end of the screw 11, a limit block 13 set on both sides of the bottom of the pressing block 10, and a limit groove for the limit block 13 to move is opened on the top of the oiling plate 3.
[0033] The screw 11 is rotated to drive the extrusion block 10, thereby precisely clamping the sunroof guide rail. This effectively prevents unnecessary shaking of the sunroof guide rail during the oiling process, ensuring that the sunroof guide rail receives uniform and effective oiling treatment, and avoiding problems such as uneven oiling or oil leakage caused by shaking.
[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an electromagnetic slide rail 4 is provided on the top of the base 1, and an electromagnetic slider 8 is slidably provided on the outside of the electromagnetic slide rail 4. The top of the electromagnetic slider 8 is connected to the bottom of the oiling plate 3.
[0035] The electromagnetic slide rail 4, in conjunction with the electromagnetic slider 8, drives the oiling plate 3 to move, which in turn drives the sunroof guide rail to be fully oiled.
[0036] Working principle: When oiling the sunroof guide rail is required, first place the sunroof guide rail on top of the oiling plate 3. Then, rotate the screw 11 to drive the extrusion block 10 to clamp the sunroof guide rail, preventing it from shaking during oiling and thus ensuring effective oiling. Next, the electromagnetic slide rail 4, in conjunction with the electromagnetic slider 8, moves the oiling plate 3. Simultaneously, the top block 5 on the top of the oiling plate 3 also moves, using the inclined edge of the top block 5 to press the H-shaped connecting block 7, causing the H-shaped connecting block 7 to move upwards. The pressing block 18 and the blocking component 19 at the bottom of block 7 will also move upward, causing the blocking component 19 to move away from the outlet of the liquid storage tank 6. At this time, the lubricating oil inside the liquid storage tank 6 will fall onto the oiling roller 15 through the outlet. The oiling roller 15 can be used to evenly apply oil to the moving sunroof guide rail. After the oiling is completed, the top block 5 will disengage from the contact with the H-shaped connecting block 7. At this time, the H-shaped connecting block 7 will move upward under the action of the compression spring 16, and at the same time, it will also drive the blocking component 19 to block the outlet of the liquid storage tank 6 to prevent the waste of lubricating oil.
