The traditional method requires repeated operations multiple times to complete a full inspection, and the detection of a single wire harness takes up to 5 - 15 minutes, which is difficult to meet modern production. Therefore, a wire harness terminal insertion detection tooling is particularly proposed to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0007] Further, the insertion mechanism includes a lifting plate slidably installed outside the four vertical rods. Installation grooves corresponding to the plurality of female terminals are opened inside the lifting plate. Side plates are fixedly installed at the front and rear ends of the plurality of installation grooves on the top of the lifting plate. Slots are opened on the opposite sides of the two side plates. A clip is slidably installed inside the two slots. The outer part of the clip is in a "C" shape structure.
[0008] Further, the four vertical rods are distributed in a left-right manner in two groups. The push-pull mechanism includes cross plates fixedly installed on the tops of the two groups of vertical rods. Two electric push rods penetrating to the bottom are fixedly installed on the tops of the two cross plates. The telescopic ends of the four electric push rods are fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate.
[0009] Furthermore, a side platform is fixedly installed at the front of the base plate, and a plurality of display screens are fixedly installed on the top of the side platform, with each of the plurality of display screens being electrically connected to a plurality of female terminals.
[0010] Furthermore, a controller is fixedly installed at the front of the base plate, and the controller is electrically connected to the four electric push rods. A switch is fixedly installed on the top of the side platform, and the switch is electrically connected to the controller.
[0011] Furthermore, a spiral frame is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lifting plate, and the spiral frame corresponds to the rectangular empty cylinder.
[0012] Furthermore, a side baffle is fixedly installed on the top of the lifting plate, and the side baffle is located on the left side of the two side plates.

Detailed Implementation
[0016] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0017] Example 1, such as Figures 1-3As shown in the figure, a detection tool for inserting and mating wire harness terminals includes a bottom plate 1. A rectangular hollow cylinder 2 is provided on the top of the bottom plate 1. A plurality of female terminals 3 are fixedly installed inside the rectangular hollow cylinder 2. Four vertical rods 4 are fixedly installed on the top of the bottom plate 1. An insertion and mating mechanism is arranged on the four vertical rods 4. A push and pull mechanism is arranged on the top of the insertion and mating mechanism. The push and pull mechanism is used to push the insertion and mating mechanism to lift and dock with the plurality of female terminals 3.
[0018] The plurality of female terminals 3 are restricted to the top of the bottom plate 1 through the rectangular hollow cylinder 2. During use, first, a plurality of wire harness terminals to be detected are loaded into the insertion and mating mechanism. Subsequently, the push and pull mechanism operates to push the insertion and mating mechanism and the plurality of wire harness terminals installed inside it to descend. When the plurality of wire harness terminals are inserted into the plurality of female terminals 3, detection can be carried out, achieving the purpose of simultaneously detecting a plurality of wire harness terminals, thereby significantly improving the detection efficiency. After the detection is completed, the push and pull mechanism operates to pull the insertion and mating mechanism upward, and the wire harness terminals can be withdrawn from the plurality of female terminals 3.
[0019] Embodiment 2, as Figures 1-5 shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on Embodiment 1, and the specific details are as follows: The insertion and mating mechanism includes a lifting plate 5 slidably installed outside the four vertical rods 4. Installation slots 6 corresponding to the plurality of female terminals 3 are opened inside the lifting plate 5. Side plates 7 located at the front and rear ends of the plurality of installation slots 6 are fixedly installed on the top of the lifting plate 5. Slots are opened on the opposite sides of the two side plates 7. A clip 8 is slidably installed inside the two slots. The outer part of the clip 8 is in a "C" - shaped structure.
[0020] With this setting, during detection, first, the plurality of wire harness terminals are respectively inserted into the plurality of installation slots 6. At this time, the plurality of wire harness terminals are located between the two side plates 7. Then, the clip 8 can be inserted into the slots opened on the opposite sides of the two side plates 7. Since the outer part of the clip 8 is in a "C" - shaped structure, the two side plates 7 can be limited, facilitating the lifting plate 5 to drive the plurality of wire harness terminals to descend and insert into the plurality of female terminals 3. Finally, the clip 8 is withdrawn from the two slots to release the limit on the wire harness terminals.
[0021] Embodiment 3, as Figures 1-3 shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on Embodiment 1, and the specific details are as follows: The four vertical rods 4 are distributed in a left - right pattern in two groups. The push and pull mechanism includes a cross - plate 9 fixedly installed on the top of the two groups of vertical rods 4. Two electric push rods 10 penetrating to the bottom are fixedly installed on the top of the two cross - plates 9. The telescopic ends of the four electric push rods 10 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 5.
[0022] With this configuration, the four electric push rods 10 are supported above the lifting plate 5 by the two horizontal plates 9. The extension and retraction of the four electric push rods 10 can drive the lifting plate 5 and the multiple wire harness terminals installed inside the lifting plate 5 to rise and fall.
[0023] Example 4, as Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on embodiment 1, and its specific details are as follows: A side platform 11 is fixedly installed at the front of the base plate 1, and a number of display screens 12 are fixedly installed on the top of the side platform 11. The multiple display screens 12 are electrically connected to multiple female terminals 3 respectively.
[0024] With this setup, multiple female terminals 3 transmit the detected information to multiple displays 12 respectively. At this time, the results of the detection of the wire harness terminals can be obtained by observing the multiple displays 12.
[0025] Example 5, as Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on embodiment 3, and its specific details are as follows: A controller 13 is fixedly installed at the front of the base plate 1. The controller 13 is electrically connected to the four electric push rods 10. A switch 14 is fixedly installed on the top of the side platform 11. The switch 14 is electrically connected to the controller 13.
[0026] With this setup, the controller 13 is started and stopped by the switch 14, and at this time, multiple controllers 13 control the four electric push rods 10 to extend and retract simultaneously.
[0027] Example 6, as Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on embodiment 1, and its specific details are as follows: A spiral frame 15 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lifting plate 5, and the spiral frame 15 corresponds to the rectangular empty cylinder 2.
[0028] With this configuration, the lifting plate 5 can drive the loop frame 15 to descend and fit over the outside of the rectangular hollow cylinder 2, thereby enabling the multiple wire harness terminals installed on the lifting plate 5 to achieve stable connection with the multiple female terminals 3.
[0029] Example 7, as Figures 1-5 As shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on embodiment 1, and its specific details are as follows: A side baffle 16 is fixedly installed on the top of the lifting plate 5, and the side baffle 16 is located on the left side of the two side plates 7.
[0030] This configuration limits the position of the clip 8 by installing the side baffle 16.
[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention.
