Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of spoiler processing technology, specifically a tailgate spoiler gluing tool. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of automotive spoilers, especially tailgate spoilers, adhesive application is a critical process. Traditional adhesive application fixtures typically use a fixed platform to position and support the spoiler workpiece.
[0003] However, the height of the support platform of these traditional tooling is usually fixed or extremely inconvenient to adjust. Different models of spoilers or different operators (with differences in height) may require different optimal working heights. Fixed-height platforms cannot adapt flexibly, causing operators to have to perform glue application work in uncomfortable postures (such as excessive bending or raising of the arms) for a long time. This not only reduces work efficiency but also easily causes operator fatigue or even occupational injuries. To address this, we propose a tailgate spoiler glue application tooling. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a tailgate spoiler gluing tool.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A tailgate spoiler adhesive application fixture includes a base; multiple vertical slide rails are provided on the base, and a support plate for mounting the spoiler is provided between the multiple vertical slide rails; an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the height of the support plate is provided above the base; the adjustment mechanism includes an annular support frame, a wedge block, and a limiting mechanism; the support frame slides in conjunction with the vertical slide rails, and the wedge block is slidably disposed inside the support frame; an inclined guide groove that engages with the wedge block is provided at the bottom of the support plate; an adjustment component for driving the wedge block to move horizontally is provided on the outside of the support frame; and the limiting mechanism is provided on the outside of the vertical slide rails to fix the height of the support frame.
[0007] Preferably, the support frame has vertical slide rails fitted into its four corners, and a base plate is fixedly installed inside it; the wedge block is slidably set on the upper surface of the base plate.
[0008] Preferably, the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment screw and a limiting frame; the limiting frame is fixed to the outside of the wedge block and passes through the side of the support frame; one end of the adjustment screw is rotatably connected to the wedge block, and the other end passes through the side of the support frame and is threadedly connected to it.
[0009] Preferably, a connecting plate is provided on the side of the limiting frame away from the wedge block; the adjusting screw passes through the connecting plate.
[0010] Preferably, the end of the adjusting screw is provided with a crank handle.
[0011] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a limiting bolt and a locking nut; the limiting bolt is screwed into a through threaded hole on the side of the support frame.
[0012] Preferably, a locking groove is provided on the outer side of the vertical slide rail; the end of the limiting bolt is inserted into the locking groove.
[0013] Preferably, the locking nut is screwed onto the end of the limiting bolt and is tightly attached to the inner side of the support frame.
[0014] Preferably, there are two wedges arranged symmetrically.
[0015] Preferably, the inclined guide grooves are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the support plate and match the inclined surface of the wedge block.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] By incorporating a height-adjustable support plate and a precision adjustment mechanism consisting of wedge blocks and inclined guide grooves, operators can easily and continuously adjust the working height of the support plate according to their own height or the operational requirements of different models of spoilers. This effectively solves the problem of traditional fixed-height platforms forcing operators to maintain poor postures such as bending over or raising their arms for extended periods, reducing operator fatigue and occupational health risks, and providing an ergonomic operating environment for long-term adhesive application operations.
[0018] The core adjustment mechanism of this device employs a mechanical structure in which symmetrically arranged wedge blocks cooperate with matching inclined guide grooves at the bottom of the support plate. When the wedge blocks are driven horizontally by the adjusting screw, the horizontal displacement can be efficiently and smoothly converted into the vertical lifting motion of the support plate. This design not only ensures a smooth and jam-free lifting process, but also utilizes the self-locking characteristics of the wedge surface and the inclined plane transmission principle to ensure that the support plate can obtain stable support at any target height, avoiding positioning deviations caused by platform shaking or sinking during the glue application process, and ensuring glue application accuracy.
[0019] The adjustment assembly uses an adjusting screw with a crank handle at the end to drive a wedge block. Operators can easily and effortlessly fine-tune the height of the support plate simply by rotating the handle. Simultaneously, an independently designed limiting mechanism (limiting bolt and locking nut) acts on the locking groove on the outer side of the vertical slide rail. After the support frame is raised or lowered into position, tightening the limiting bolt and locking the nut ensures a quick and secure lock on the slide rail. This separation of adjustment and locking design makes height adjustment simple and flexible, and the locking state reliable and safe, improving the efficiency of tooling adjustments and the speed of work transitions.

[0028] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0029] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious modifications will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description can be used in other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

They are only for the purpose of simplifying the description of this utility model and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0031] It is understood that the term "a" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element can be multiple, and the term "a" should not be understood as a limitation on the number. Example
[0032] Please see Figure 1-6 A tailgate spoiler adhesive application fixture includes a base 1; the base 1 is provided with multiple vertical slide rails 2, forming a vertical guide system, and a support plate 3 for installing the spoiler is provided between the multiple vertical slide rails 2; an adjustment mechanism 4 for adjusting the height of the support plate 3 is provided above the base 1; the adjustment mechanism 4 includes an annular support frame 5, a wedge block 6, and a limiting mechanism 7; the support frame 5 is slidably engaged with the vertical slide rails 2, and the wedge block 6 is slidably disposed inside the support frame 5; the bottom of the support plate 3 is provided with an inclined guide groove 8 that engages with the wedge block 6; the inclined guide groove 8 at the bottom of the support plate 3 engages with the inclined surface of the wedge block 6, converting the horizontal displacement of the wedge block 6 into the vertical lifting and lowering of the support plate 3;
[0033] The support frame 5 is equipped with an adjustment component 9 on the outside to drive the wedge block 6 to move horizontally, so as to realize stepless height adjustment; the limit mechanism 7 is located on the outside of the vertical slide rail 2 to fix the height of the support frame 5 and ensure the rigid support of the tooling after lifting.
[0034] The support frame 5 has vertical slide rails 2 fitted into its four inner corners to ensure that it is always in close contact with the slide rails during the lifting process, thus avoiding skewing. The support frame 5 has a fixed base plate 10 inside, which provides a low-friction sliding surface to ensure that the wedge block 6 moves smoothly horizontally. The wedge block 6 is slidably set on the upper surface of the base plate 10. The sliding trajectory of the wedge block 6 on the base plate 10 is precisely matched with the inclined guide groove 8 of the support plate 3, so that the horizontal driving force is efficiently converted into vertical lift and energy loss is reduced.
[0035] In addition, the adjustment assembly 9 includes an adjustment screw 11 and a limiting frame 12; the limiting frame 12 is fixed to the outside of the wedge block 6 and passes through the side of the support frame 5; one end of the adjustment screw 11 is rotatably connected to the wedge block 6, and the other end passes through the side of the support frame 5 and is threadedly connected to it. The rotational movement pushes the wedge block 6 to move horizontally. The limiting frame 12 transmits the screw thrust and restricts the wedge block 6 to move only in the horizontal direction to prevent deviation and jamming.
[0036] Furthermore, a connecting plate 13 is provided on the side of the limiting frame 12 away from the wedge block 6; the adjusting screw 11 passes through the connecting plate 13, providing an additional support point for the adjusting screw 11. The design of the adjusting screw 11 passing through the connecting plate 13 disperses the force on the screw cantilever, reduces the risk of bending deformation, ensures that the thrust is evenly transmitted to the wedge block 6, and improves the stability of the adjustment process; at the same time, a crank handle 14 is provided at the end of the adjusting screw 11, simplifying the rotation operation into an ergonomic rocking motion. Operators can fine-tune the height with one hand without tools, reducing operational intensity and improving efficiency, which is especially suitable for production line environments with frequent adjustments.
[0037] Meanwhile, the limiting mechanism 7 includes a limiting bolt 15 and a locking nut 16; the limiting bolt 15 is screwed into a through threaded hole on the side of the support frame 5; a locking groove 17 is provided on the outer side of the vertical slide rail 2, forming a physical jamming effect to directly inhibit the downward movement of the support frame 5; the end of the limiting bolt 15 is inserted into the locking groove 17; the locking nut 16 is screwed onto the end of the limiting bolt 15 and closely adheres to the inner side of the support frame 5, further enhancing the locking effect through thread preload. This synergy provides a double safety net of mechanical and frictional protection, preventing accidental displacement due to vibration during the adhesive application process.
[0038] The working principle of this device is as follows:
[0039] When the tooling is at a fixed height, the support plate 3 is pressed against the inclined surface of the two symmetrical wedge blocks 6 by the symmetrical inclined guide groove 8 at the bottom. At this time, the annular support frame 5 is kept vertically positioned by the vertical slide rail 2 that fits at the four corners on the inner side. The end of the limiting bolt 15 of the limiting mechanism 7 is pushed into the locking groove 17 on the outer side of the slide rail. At the same time, the locking nut 16 is tightened and pressed against the inner side of the support frame 5 to achieve double mechanical locking and ensure that the support plate 3 can stably bear the load.
[0040] When height adjustment is required, first loosen the limit bolt 15 and lock nut 16. The operator rotates the crank 14 at the end of the adjusting screw 11 to drive the adjusting screw 11 to rotate. Due to the threaded engagement between the screw and the side of the support frame 5, its rotational motion is converted into horizontal thrust, pushing the limit frame 12 and the wedge block 6 fixed thereto to slide horizontally on the base plate 10 inside the support frame 5. The design of the limit frame 12 penetrating the side of the support frame 5 strictly restricts the wedge block 6 to move only in the horizontal direction;
[0041] The horizontal displacement of the wedge block 6 is converted into the vertical lifting motion of the support plate 3 through the engagement of its inclined surface with the inclined guide groove 8 at the bottom of the support plate 3: when the wedge block 6 slides inward, the inclined surface pushes the guide groove upward, and the support plate 3 rises; when the wedge block 6 slides outward, the inclined surface weakens its support for the guide groove, and the support plate 3 falls due to gravity.
[0042] After the support plate 3 reaches the target height, tighten the limiting bolt 15 so that its end is inserted into the locking groove 17 of the vertical slide rail 2, directly preventing the support frame 5 from sliding down; at the same time, tighten the locking nut 16 to press against the inner side of the support frame 5, and enhance the locking through the thread preload. At this time, the wedge block 6 maintains its position under the self-locking action of the adjusting screw 11, forming a rigid support with the inclined guide groove 8, and finally achieving zero-shaking positioning of the support plate 3 at any height, providing a stable platform for the glue application operation;
[0043] Afterwards, the operators carried out the painting work. Example
[0044] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 Two wedge blocks 6 are arranged symmetrically. The two symmetrical wedge blocks 6 move horizontally synchronously, so that the support plate 3 is subjected to uniform force and avoids the risk of overturning caused by single-point support. Furthermore, the inclined guide grooves 8 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the support plate 3 and match the inclined surface of the wedge blocks 6 to ensure that the load of the two wedge blocks 6 is balanced during the lifting / lowering process, thereby improving the rigidity and smoothness of the system.
[0045] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments. Without departing from the stated principles, the implementation of the present invention may have any variations or modifications.
