[0004]为了克服现有技术的不足,本实用新型提供一种汽车前照灯偏移量调节工装,能解决长杆较长且刀头相对较小,存在着在将工装伸入汽车前舱盖进行前照灯偏移量调节不便将调节头稳定精准的对接调光螺母进行调光操作的技术问题
[0012]1. By setting a positioning and stabilizing component on the other side of the long rod, when the adjusting sleeve is inserted into the dimming hole of the headlight decorative cover on the front of the car hood to adjust the offset of the car headlight, the telescopic abutment is pressed against the outside of the dimming hole to stabilize the long rod, making it easy for technicians to align the adjusting sleeve with the outside of the dimming nut. As the adjusting sleeve is inserted, the compression spring is compressed and the telescopic abutment retracts into the inside of the stabilizing cylinder. The stabilizing cylinder is movably connected to the long rod through a connecting piece. When the long rod is rotated, the connecting piece does not rotate synchronously with it to ensure a stable positioning effect. At the same time, the limiting piece limits the position of the connecting piece on the outside of the long rod, thereby achieving the purpose of stably and accurately docking the adjusting sleeve with the car headlight dimming nut for offset adjustment, making it more operable.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects that this utility model can achieve are:
[0012] 1. By setting a positioning and stabilizing component on the other side of the long rod, when the adjusting sleeve is inserted into the dimming hole of the headlight decorative cover on the front of the car hood to adjust the offset of the car headlight, the telescopic abutment is pressed against the outside of the dimming hole to stabilize the long rod, making it easy for technicians to align the adjusting sleeve with the outside of the dimming nut. As the adjusting sleeve is inserted, the compression spring is compressed and the telescopic abutment retracts into the inside of the stabilizing cylinder. The stabilizing cylinder is movably connected to the long rod through a connecting piece. When the long rod is rotated, the connecting piece does not rotate synchronously with it to ensure a stable positioning effect. At the same time, the limiting piece limits the position of the connecting piece on the outside of the long rod, thereby achieving the purpose of stably and accurately docking the adjusting sleeve with the car headlight dimming nut for offset adjustment, making it more operable.
[0013] 2. By providing a disassembly and replacement assembly between one side of the adjusting sleeve and the other side of the long rod, the assembly block, which is connected to the adjusting sleeve via a stabilizing plate, is installed inside the fixed sleeve through a threaded connection during use.

Unless otherwise specified, the experimental methods in the following embodiments are conventional methods, and the materials and reagents used in the following embodiments are commercially available unless otherwise specified.
[0020] Example
[0021] Please refer to Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a tooling for adjusting the offset of automotive headlights, including a long rod 5, a connecting rod 3 on one side of the long rod 5, a crank handle 2 at the bottom of one side of the connecting rod 3, the long rod 5 and the crank handle 2 being perpendicular to the connecting rod 3 and parallel to each other, a sleeve 1 being provided on the outside of the crank handle 2, a guide cylinder 4 being provided on the outside of the long rod 5 near the connecting rod 3, and an adjusting sleeve 8 being provided on the other side of the long rod 5. The adjusting sleeve 8 is fitted onto the outside of the dimming nut. The technician holds the sleeve 1 and rotates the long rod 5 through the connecting rod 3 to rotate the dimming nut to adjust the offset of the automotive headlight beam.
[0022] As a further implementation of this embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a connecting piece 6 is provided on one side of the long rod 5, and the connecting piece 6 can rotate between the limiting pieces 12 on the outside of the long rod 5. Ring-shaped limiting pieces 12 are provided on both sides of the long rod 5. A stabilizing cylinder 7 is provided at the bottom of one side of the connecting piece 6. A telescopic abutment 11 is inserted into one side of the inside of the stabilizing cylinder 7. The telescopic abutment 11 can telescopically move one side of the inside of the stabilizing cylinder 7. When the adjusting sleeve 8 is inserted into the dimming hole of the headlight decorative cover on the front hood of the car to adjust the offset of the car headlight, the telescopic abutment 11 abuts against the outside of the dimming hole, thereby stabilizing the long rod 5 and making it convenient for technicians to align the adjusting sleeve 8 with the sleeve. Connecting to the outside of the dimming nut, a connecting block 10 is provided inside the stabilizing cylinder 7 on one side of the telescopic abutment 11. A compression spring 13 is provided on the other side of the stabilizing cylinder 7, and one side of the compression spring 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting block 10. The compression spring 13 can ensure that the telescopic abutment 11 is extended and retracted without affecting the normal insertion of the adjusting sleeve 8. When the long rod 5 is rotated, the connecting piece 6 does not rotate synchronously with it to ensure a stable positioning effect. At the same time, the limiting piece 12 limits the position of the connecting piece 6 outside the long rod 5, thereby achieving the purpose of stably and accurately docking the adjusting sleeve 8 with the dimming nut of the car headlight for offset adjustment operation.
[0023] As a further implementation of this embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a disassembly and replacement assembly is provided between one side of the adjusting sleeve head 8 and the other side of the long rod 5. The disassembly and replacement assembly includes a fixing sleeve 9, which is located on the other side of the long rod 5. A stabilizing plate 14 is provided on one side of the adjusting sleeve head 8, and an assembly block 15 is provided at the middle position on one side of the stabilizing plate 14. The assembly block 15 is inserted into the interior of the fixing sleeve 9. The inner side wall of the fixing sleeve 9 is provided with an internal thread, and the outer side of the assembly block 15 is provided with an external thread that matches the internal thread. The assembly block 15, which is connected to the adjusting sleeve head 8 through the stabilizing plate 14, is installed inside the fixing sleeve 9 through a threaded connection, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the adjusting sleeve head 8 and the long rod 5. Moreover, the adjusting sleeve head 8 can be replaced by disassembling the assembly block 15, thus achieving the effect of convenient disassembly and replacement of the adjusting sleeve head 8 to suit different types of automotive headlight offset adjusting sleeve heads 8.
[0024] In use, the assembly block 15, which is connected to the adjusting sleeve 8 via the stabilizing plate 14, is installed inside the fixing sleeve 9 by threaded connection. This fixes the adjusting sleeve 8 to the long rod 5 and also makes it easy to disassemble the assembly block 15 to replace the adjusting sleeve 8.
[0025] Specific working principle:
[0026] When using the adjustment fixture, first select a suitable adjustment sleeve 8 according to the size of the dimming nut, and install the assembly block 15, which is connected to the adjustment sleeve 8 through the stabilizing plate 14, inside the fixed sleeve 9 through a threaded connection. This will fix the adjustment sleeve 8 to the long rod 5. Then, the technician holds the sleeve 1 and inserts the adjustment sleeve 8 into the dimming hole of the headlight decorative cover on the front of the car hood to adjust the headlight offset. The telescopic abutment 11 is used to hold the outside of the dimming hole to stabilize the long rod 5, making it easy for the technician to align the adjustment sleeve 8 and fit it on the outside of the dimming nut. As the adjustment sleeve 8 is inserted, the compression spring 13 is compressed and the telescopic abutment 11 retracts into the inside of the stabilizing cylinder 7, fitting the adjustment sleeve 8 on the outside of the dimming nut. The technician holds the sleeve 1 and rotates the long rod 5 through the connecting rod 3 to rotate the dimming nut to adjust the headlight beam offset. When the long rod 5 is rotated, the connecting plate 6 does not rotate synchronously with it. At the same time, the limiting plate 12 limits the position of the connecting plate 6 on the outside of the long rod 5, thus enabling convenient and quick headlight offset adjustment.
[0027] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model.
