Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of special vehicle manufacturing technology, and in particular to a forming device for mounting holes for vehicle lights. Background Technology
[0002] In the production and manufacturing of special vehicles such as amphibious vehicles, the forming of the headlight assembly holes is a key step, and its quality and precision directly affect the vehicle's lighting performance and operational safety.
[0003] Currently, the auxiliary tooling used in the industry for processing plastic car body headlight assembly frames is mainly divided into two categories: mechanical cutting tooling and simple electric heating tooling. Although mechanical cutting tooling can complete the cutting process, it is easy to cause burrs, dents or deformation on the assembly frame wall, resulting in poor processing quality and serious environmental pollution at the processing site. Although simple electric heating tooling solves the problems of processing accuracy and environmental protection to a certain extent, it is difficult to adapt to the needs of multiple car models and requires customized tooling for each car model, which increases the production cost of enterprises. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a forming apparatus for automotive headlight mounting holes, which aims to solve the problem that auxiliary tooling for processing plastic body headlight mounting frames in the industry is difficult to adapt to the needs of multiple vehicle models, requiring customized tooling for each vehicle model, which increases the production cost for enterprises.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides a forming device for automotive lamp mounting holes, including a horizontal support, wherein each end of the horizontal support is provided with an independent telescopic clamp at one end of the longitudinal section and one end of the transverse section; a rotatable elastic arm is disposed above the horizontal support, one end of the elastic arm is slidably connected to an L-shaped movable arm; a crossbeam mounting frame, on which a pair of mounting blocks 1 are fixedly connected, the two mounting blocks 1 are connected to the vertical section of the L-shaped movable arm by a pivot, and both ends of the crossbeam mounting frame are slidably connected to telescopic arms 2; a pair of electric heating heads, the surface of the electric heating heads is fixedly connected to a pair of mounting blocks 2, and the end surface of the telescopic arms 2 is fixedly connected to a pair of mounting blocks 3, the two mounting blocks 2 are connected between the two mounting blocks 3 by a pivot.
[0006] In some implementations, the horizontal support has separate strip holes in both its horizontal and vertical sections. The telescopic clamp includes a telescopic arm with multiple linearly and equidistantly distributed fixing holes. The horizontal support has a locking part that matches the inner diameter of the fixing holes. An upper clamping plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the telescopic arm, and a lower clamping plate is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the telescopic arm. An adjusting screw is threaded onto the upper clamping plate, and a circular clamping block is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting screw corresponding to the lower clamping plate. A circular positioning block is fixedly connected to the side of the lower clamping plate corresponding to the circular clamping block.
[0007] In some implementations, a rotating block is fixedly connected to one end of the adjusting screw corresponding to the upper clamping plate, and the rotating block has a hexagonal structure.
[0008] In some implementations, a vertical support is fixedly connected to the longitudinal section of the horizontal support, the elastic arm is connected between the top grooves of the vertical support via a rotating shaft, a lower connecting plate is fixedly connected to one side of the vertical support, an upper connecting plate corresponding to the lower connecting plate is fixedly connected to the top of the elastic arm, and a limit spring is fixedly connected between the lower connecting plate and the upper connecting plate.
[0009] In some implementations, the surface of the elastic arm is provided with a strip-shaped hole II, and the horizontal section of the L-shaped moving arm is provided with multiple linearly and equidistantly distributed fixing holes II.

This ensures that the entire forming device will not shake or shift during operation, thus guaranteeing the quality and precision of the headlight assembly hole forming. The coordinated design of the elastic arm, L-shaped moving arm, crossbeam mounting bracket, and telescopic arm II is designed to achieve multi-degree-of-freedom adjustment of the electric heating head.

[0014] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a forming device for mounting holes for vehicle lights includes a horizontal support 1, a rotatable elastic arm 2, a crossbeam mounting bracket 4, and a pair of electric heating heads 5.
[0015] The horizontal support 1 has an independent telescopic clamp at both ends of the longitudinal section and one end of the transverse section. Considering the significant differences in body specifications between different vehicle models during actual headlight assembly hole forming operations, the horizontal support 1 has separate strip-shaped holes 11 on both the transverse and longitudinal sections to ensure that the telescopic clamp can adapt to and fix different body models. The telescopic clamp includes a telescopic arm 3, which is connected to multiple linearly and equidistantly distributed fixing holes 31. The horizontal support 1 has a clamp that is perpendicular to the inner wall of the fixing holes 31. The locking part is adapted to the diameter. The upper surface of the telescopic arm 3 is fixedly connected to the upper clamping plate 32, and the lower surface of the telescopic arm 3 is fixedly connected to the lower clamping plate 33. The upper clamping plate 32 is threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 34. The end of the adjusting screw 34 located on the lower clamping plate 33 is fixedly connected to the circular clamping block 35. The side of the lower clamping plate 33 located on the circular clamping block 35 is fixedly connected to the circular positioning block 36. The end of the adjusting screw 34 located on the upper clamping plate 32 is fixedly connected to the rotating block 37, which has a hexagonal structure.
[0016] Because the horizontal support 1 adopts a square tube structure, the telescopic arm 3 can slide along both ends of the longitudinal section and one end of the transverse section of the horizontal support 1. When the telescopic arm 3 slides along the inner wall of the horizontal support 1 until the upper clamping plate 32 and the lower clamping plate 33 are respectively engaged with the upper and lower sides of the inner edge of the hollow groove at the front of the vehicle body, the locking part 1 is passed through the strip hole 11 and the fixing hole 31 in sequence and locked. This ensures the stability of the telescopic arm 3 after adjustment and use. Then, the rotating block 37 is rotated, which drives the adjusting screw 34 to rotate on the upper clamping plate 32, thereby causing the circular clamping block 35 to abut against the vehicle body. Figure 4 As shown, this allows the horizontal support 1 to be stably installed on the vehicle body.
[0017] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a rotatable elastic arm 2 is positioned above a horizontal support 1. To enable the elastic arm 2 to rotate above the horizontal support 1, a vertical support 12 is fixedly connected to the longitudinal section of the horizontal support 1. The elastic arm 2 is connected to the top groove of the vertical support 12 via a rotating shaft. A lower connecting plate 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the vertical support 12. An upper connecting plate 14 corresponding to the lower connecting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the elastic arm 2. A limit spring 15 is fixedly connected between the lower connecting plate 13 and the upper connecting plate 14.
[0018] like Figure 3 As shown, one end of the elastic arm 2 is slidably connected to an L-shaped movable arm 21. The surface of the elastic arm 2 has a strip-shaped hole 22. The horizontal section of the L-shaped movable arm 21 has multiple linearly and equidistantly distributed fixing holes 23. Between the top and bottom of the elastic arm 2, there is a locking part 2 that matches the inner diameter of the fixing hole 23. This design is to enable the L-shaped movable arm 21, which is slidably designed at one end of the elastic arm 2, to be adjusted according to the length of different vehicle bodies. After the L-shaped movable arm 21 is slidably adjusted along the elastic arm 2 with a square tube structure, the locking part 2 is passed through the strip-shaped hole 22 and the fixing hole 23 in sequence and locked, which can ensure the stability of the L-shaped movable arm 21 after adjustment and use.
[0019] like Figures 1-3As shown, a crossbeam mounting bracket 4 has a pair of mounting blocks 41 fixedly connected to it. The two mounting blocks 41 are connected to the vertical section of the L-shaped moving arm 21 via a pivot. Telescopic arms 42 are slidably connected to both ends of the crossbeam mounting bracket 4. A pair of strip holes 43 are opened on the surface of the crossbeam mounting bracket 4. Multiple linearly and equidistantly distributed fixing holes 44 are opened on the telescopic arms 42. The crossbeam mounting bracket 4 is provided with locking parts 3 that are adapted to the inner diameter of the fixing holes 44. This design is to enable the telescopic arms 42, which are slidably designed at both ends of the crossbeam mounting bracket 4, to be adjusted according to the width of different vehicle bodies. After the telescopic arms 42 are slidably adjusted along the crossbeam mounting bracket 4 with a square tube structure, the locking parts 3 are passed through the strip holes 43 and the fixing holes 44 in sequence and locked, which can ensure the stability of the telescopic arms 42 after adjustment and use.
[0020] like Figures 2-4 As shown, a pair of mounting blocks 2 51 are fixedly connected to the surface of the electric heating head 5, and a pair of mounting blocks 3 52 are fixedly connected to the end surface of the telescopic arm 2 42. The two mounting blocks 2 51 are connected between the two mounting blocks 3 52 through a rotating shaft. This design allows the electric heating head 5 to rotate on the telescopic arms 2 42 at both ends of the crossbeam mounting frame 4, thereby ensuring that the electric heating head 5 fits tightly against the curved surface of the vehicle body.
[0021] This technical solution enables multi-degree-of-freedom adjustment of the electric heating head 5, adapting to curved surface processing scenarios, improving universal adaptability to multiple vehicle models, and reducing production costs and changeover efficiency.
[0022] It should be noted that locking part one, locking part two, and locking part three are all bolt structures.
[0023] In addition, a rotating scale is provided on the surface of the L-shaped moving arm 21 and the surface of the mounting block 3 52, and the vehicle model information is marked on the rotating scale, which makes it easy to adjust each vehicle model in one step.
[0024] The electric heating head 5 is welded to the shape of the car headlight. The front end of the crossbeam mounting bracket 4 has symmetrical handles welded on both sides, and from left to right are arranged a temperature adjustment knob 6, a power switch 7, and a switch indicator light 8. Figure 3 As shown, the electric heating head 5 is equipped with an electric heating device inside. The electric heating head 5 is electrically connected to the temperature adjustment knob 6 through a wire. The temperature can be adjusted by operating the temperature adjustment knob 6 to meet the heating requirements of different body materials.
[0025] A laser positioner 9 is provided at the center of the rear end face of the crossbeam mounting bracket 4, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the laser positioner 9 can ensure the accuracy of tooling assembly.
