[0019] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application discloses a universal installation fixture for a shock absorber fork arm, including a base plate 1, a fork arm positioning pin 2, a fork arm positioning seat 3, and a locking nut fixing seat 4. The fork arm positioning pin 2 is connected to the fork arm positioning seat 3, and the fork arm positioning pin 2 and the fork arm positioning seat 3 lock and fix the fork arm, so that the fork arm is accurately connected to the shock absorber. The locking nut fixing seat 4 is set at the center of the base plate 1 by a positioning key 13. When installing and fixing the shock absorber and the fork arm, bolts and locking nuts are required for fixing. The locking nut fixing seat 4 accurately positions the locking nut, ensuring that the locking nut is accurately positioned in the fixture, so that the nut can be accurately screwed onto the corresponding bolt, ensuring the accuracy of the connection between the shock absorber and the fork arm, and making the shock absorber and the fork arm firmly connected, thus realizing the installation of the shock absorber and the fork arm.

[0020] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in this application, a hand-cranked linear guide 5 is provided on the base plate 1 to adjust the length of the shock absorber fork arm fixture. The hand-cranked linear guide 5 is fixed to the base plate 1 by a positioning key 13. The hand-cranked linear guide 5 includes a first hand-cranked linear guide 51 and a second hand-cranked linear guide 52. The first hand-cranked linear guide 51 is located at one end of the bottom side connected to the fork arm positioning seat 3. The first hand-cranked linear guide 51 is connected to the fork arm positioning seat 3 to facilitate fixing the fork arm. The second hand-cranked linear guide 52 is located at one end away from the locking nut fixing seat 4 and away from the first hand-cranked linear guide 51. A support plate 6 is provided on the second hand-cranked linear guide 52. The second hand-cranked linear guide 52 can drive the support plate 6 to move closer to the first hand-cranked linear guide 51, shortening the distance between the first hand-cranked linear guide 51 and the second hand-cranked linear guide 52, so as to adjust the length of the shock absorber fork arm fixture, adapt to the installation of shock absorbers and fork arms of different specifications and sizes, and improve installation efficiency.

[0021] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this application, a slide rail 7 is provided on the base plate 1. The slide rail 7 is located between the first hand-cranked linear guide rail 51 and the second hand-cranked linear guide rail 52. The slide rail 7 includes a first slide rail 71 and a second slide rail 72. To adjust the width of the shock absorber fork arm fixture, the base plate 1 is fixedly connected to the first slide rail 71 via a positioning key 13. The track of the first slide rail 71 is set along the width direction of the shock absorber and fork arm to adjust the width of the shock absorber and fork arm fixture. The same support plate 6 is provided on the first slide rail 71 and the second hand-cranked linear guide rail 52. A second slide rail 72 is set near the locking nut positioning seat 4. The track of the second slide rail 72 is set along the length direction of the shock absorber and the fork arm. When the support plate 6 is moved by the second hand-cranked linear guide rail 52, the length direction of the shock absorber and the fork arm is adjusted. The first hand-cranked linear guide rail 51, the second hand-cranked linear guide rail 52, the first slide rail 71 and the second slide rail 72 cooperate with each other to adjust the length and width of the shock absorber and fork arm installation fixture, adapting to the installation of shock absorbers and fork arms of different specifications, improving installation efficiency and reducing production and maintenance costs.

[0022] like Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment, a hydraulic cylinder positioning seat 8 is provided on the support plate 6, which positions and supports the hydraulic cylinder. A rotary cylinder 9 is provided on the hydraulic cylinder positioning seat 8. The rotary cylinder 9 cooperates with the hydraulic cylinder positioning seat 8 to position and clamp the shock absorber, so as to facilitate the installation of the shock absorber and the fork arm. A linear cylinder 10 is provided on the end of the support plate 6 away from the hydraulic cylinder positioning seat 8. The linear cylinder 10 achieves the positioning and clamping of the shock absorber through linear or reciprocating motion, ensuring the accuracy of the installation process of the shock absorber and the fork arm. A clamping block 11 is connected to the linear cylinder 10, and the clamping block 11 cooperates with the linear cylinder 10 to position and fix the shock absorber. This application sets up a hydraulic cylinder positioning seat 8, a rotary cylinder 9, a linear cylinder 10, and a clamping block 11 to achieve precise positioning and stable fixing of the shock absorber and the fork arm, improving the accuracy and stability of the installation of the shock absorber and the fork arm.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in another embodiment, a sensor magnetic fixing bracket 12 is connected to the base plate 1. The sensor magnetic fixing bracket 12 is located on the side near the locking nut fixing seat 4. The sensor magnetic fixing bracket 12 is designed to facilitate position adjustment. A sensor is provided on the sensor magnetic fixing bracket 12 to sense the direction of the shock absorber and the fork arm, preventing the shock absorber and the fork arm from being installed backwards.

[0024] This application discloses a universal installation fixture for shock absorber forks. By adapting the structural dimensions of different models of shock absorbers and forks, the fixture is designed with adjustable allowances for deviations in length and width. A first hand-cranked linear guide rail 51, a second hand-cranked linear guide rail 52, a first slide rail 71, and a second slide rail 72 work together to adjust the length and width of the installation fixture, adapting it to the installation of different specifications of shock absorbers and forks, thus making the installation fixture universal for different models of shock absorbers and forks. If individual shock absorbers and forks with significantly different dimensions are not compatible with the universal installation fixture, this application allows for the replacement of certain components to achieve universality.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in this application, when installing the shock absorber and fork arm, the shock absorber is inserted into the fork arm and then placed in the universal installation fixture for the shock absorber and fork arm. First, the fork arm is positioned using the fork arm positioning pin 2. Then, the linear cylinder 10 pushes the clamping block 11 to press the shock absorber and fork arm to prevent loosening. Subsequently, the rotary cylinder 9 presses the hydraulic cylinder. Then, the center of the fork arm bolt mounting hole and the locking nut fixing seat 4 is fixed by the hand crank screw 53. Finally, the hand crank screw guide rail 54 is locked, thus completing the debugging of the first piece of fixture. Then, the shock absorber and fork arm can be installed, and the installation production of the shock absorber and fork arm can be carried out. If another set of mounting parts corresponding to the shock absorber and fork arm is to be produced, the locking hand crank screw guide rail 54 is adjusted so that the center of the fork arm bolt mounting hole and the locking nut fixing seat 4 are aligned. Then, the position of the sensor magnetic fixing bracket 12 is adjusted accordingly, thus completing the debugging of the fixture after reversal, and then the installation production of the shock absorber and fork arm can be carried out.

[0026] This application provides a universal installation fixture for shock absorber forks to ensure a stable connection between the shock absorber and the fork component. A hand-cranked linear guide rail 5 and a slide rail 7 work together to adjust the length and width of the shock absorber and fork mounting fixture, adapting to different specifications of shock absorbers and fork arms, improving installation efficiency and reducing production and maintenance costs. This application includes a sensor magnetic fixing bracket 12, on which a sensor detects the direction of the shock absorber and fork arm, preventing reverse installation. This application provides a universal installation fixture for shock absorber forks, enhancing production flexibility, improving installation efficiency, and reducing production and maintenance costs.
