Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector assembly technology, specifically a connector assembly positioning structure. Background Technology
[0002] In automotive electrical systems, connectors are the core nodes for transmitting signals and power to components such as wiring harnesses, sensors, and controllers. Their assembly precision directly determines the reliability, stability, and overall vehicle safety of the electrical connections.
[0003] Existing technology CN220209582U discloses a positioning fixture for processing electrical connectors applicable to different workpieces, including a positioning base. The upper surface of the positioning base has a positioning groove, and several arc-shaped grooves are evenly spaced on the outer side of the positioning groove. An installation cylinder is arranged inside the arc-shaped groove. One end of the installation cylinder is threaded to a telescopic cylinder. A connecting rod is arranged on the end of the telescopic cylinder away from the installation cylinder. An arc-shaped clamping plate is fixedly arranged on the end of the connecting rod away from the telescopic cylinder. A knob is fixedly arranged on one side of the installation cylinder. By rotating the four installation cylinders, the telescopic cylinder drives the connecting rod and the arc-shaped clamping plate to move, and the arc-shaped clamping plate is used to clamp and fix different models of electrical connectors.
[0004] However, in actual use, the following shortcomings still exist: the mounting cylinder needs to be rotated separately to move the four telescopic cylinders towards the center for clamping, and the distance of the telescopic cylinder movement cannot be controlled, so it cannot be guaranteed that the connector is in the center position, which affects the accuracy of connector assembly; and after the connector is fixed, after one side is installed, the other side needs to be assembled, at which time the connector needs to be clamped again, which is very time-consuming and laborious.
[0005] Based on this, a connector assembly positioning structure is now provided, which can eliminate the drawbacks of existing devices. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a connector assembly and positioning structure to solve the problems in the background art.

The fixed plate and the sliding plate are slidably connected. A second spring is provided in each sliding cylinder. One end of the second spring is connected to the sliding rod, and the other end of the second spring is connected to the inner wall of the sliding cylinder.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0022] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-4As shown, a connector assembly and positioning structure includes a work platform 100. Two mounting plates 101 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the work platform 100. The two mounting plates 101 are provided with a flipping mechanism. The flipping mechanism is connected to a fixing frame 102. The fixing frame 102 is provided with a fixing mechanism for fixing the connector. The fixing mechanism is provided with a fitting component that adaptively fits irregular workpieces. The fixing frame 102 is provided with a limiting component. The limiting component makes the connector position in the middle of the fixing mechanism. The fixing mechanism clamps the connector in the center position. The fitting component can adapt to connectors of different sizes and shapes. The flipping mechanism can drive the fixing frame and the clamped connector to flip as a whole, so that the assembly of the front and back of the connector can be completed without disassembly.
[0023] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the fixing mechanism includes two clamping plates 201, which are slidably connected to a fixing frame 102. Two bidirectional screws 202 are rotatably connected to the fixing frame 102. The clamping plates 201 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional screws 202. The two bidirectional screws 202 are fixedly connected to a first bevel gear 203, which meshes with a second bevel gear 204. The second bevel gears 204 are fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 205. 5. Rotary connection is made to the fixed frame 102. The rotating shaft 205 is driven by the motor 206, which is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 102. When the motor 206 is started, the motor 206 drives the rotating shaft 205 to rotate. The rotating shaft 205 drives the second bevel gear 204 to rotate. The second bevel gear 204 drives the first bevel gear 203 to rotate. The first bevel gear 203 drives the bidirectional screw 202 to rotate. The bidirectional screw 202 drives the two clamping plates 201 to move closer to each other and clamp the connector.
[0024] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the limiting assembly includes four sliding cylinders 301, which are fixedly connected to the fixed frame 102. Sliding rods 302 are slidably connected within each of the four sliding cylinders 301. A fixed plate 303 and a sliding plate 304 are fixedly connected between two sliding rods 302. The fixed plate 303 and the sliding plate 304 are slidably connected. A second spring 305 is provided in each sliding cylinder 301. One end of the second spring 305 is connected to the sliding rod 302, and the other end is connected to the inner wall of the sliding cylinder 301. A baffle 306 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the fixed plate 303. Before the clamping plates 201 move closer together to clamp the connector, the second spring 305 in the sliding cylinder 301 pulls the sliding rod 302, thereby causing the two fixed plates 303 to move closer together. The two fixed plates 303 then move the baffle 306 closer together, pushing the connector to the center position of the clamping plate 201, preventing the connector from deviating from the center position and affecting the assembly effect.
[0025] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the fitting component includes multiple sliding blocks 401, which are slidably connected in corresponding grooves 402 on the clamping plate 201. A spring 403 is provided in the groove 402. One end of the spring 403 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 401, and the other end of the spring 403 is connected to the inner wall of the groove 402. As the clamping plate 201 approaches the connector, the sliding block 401 first contacts the connector surface. For irregular connectors, the sliding blocks 401 at different positions retract along the groove 402 and compress the spring 403 under the squeezing action of the connector surface. The reaction force of the spring 403 pushes the sliding block 401, so that the sliding block 401 is always tightly fitted with the connector surface, realizing multi-point adaptive clamping.
[0026] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the flipping mechanism includes a first gear 501, which is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 102. The first gear 501 meshes with a second gear 502, which is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 101. A fixed cylinder 503 is fixedly connected to the second gear 502, and a moving rod 504 is slidably connected to the fixed cylinder 503. The moving rod 504 is rotatably connected to the output rod of a telescopic rod 505. The telescopic rod 505 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 101 and extends beyond the output rod. The telescopic rod 505 drives the second gear 502 to rotate through the fixed cylinder 503 and the moving rod 504. The second gear 502 drives the first gear 501 to rotate. When the telescopic rod 505 is fully extended beyond the output rod, the first gear 501 rotates halfway, causing the connector to flip.
[0027] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3As shown, the sliding block 401 is provided with a rubber pad 600. The rubber pad 600 is soft and has a smooth surface, which can avoid rigid friction between the sliding block 401 and the connector surface, effectively prevent physical damage such as connector edge cracking and surface scratches, and increase the friction with the connector surface to prevent the connector from moving.
[0028] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the lower end of the work platform 100 is fixedly connected to a support rod 701. The lower end of the support rod 701 is threadedly connected to one end of a threaded rod 702. The other end of the threaded rod 702 is rotatably connected to a support foot 703. The end of the threaded rod 702 near the support foot 703 is fixedly connected to a knob 704. Rotating the four knobs 704 causes the threaded rod 702 to rotate, adjusting the height of each support rod 701 to adapt to different working environment requirements.
[0029] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the four sliding cylinders 301 are evenly distributed on the fixed frame 102, so that the connector is located in the middle of the clamping plate 201.
[0030] The above embodiment discloses a connector assembly and positioning structure, in which the connector is placed between two clamping plates 201. Before the clamping plates 201 move closer together to clamp the connector, the spring 305 in the sliding cylinder 301 pulls the sliding rod 302 to move, thereby causing the two fixing plates 303 to move closer together. The two fixing plates 303 cause the baffle 306 to move closer together, and the baffle 306 pushes the connector to the middle position of the clamping plates 201. The motor 206 is started, and the motor 206 drives the rotating shaft 205 to rotate. The rotating shaft 205 drives the bevel gear 204 to rotate, the bevel gear 204 drives the bevel gear 203 to rotate, the bevel gear 203 drives the bidirectional screw 202 to rotate, and the bidirectional screw 202 drives the two... The clamping plates 201 move closer to each other. As the clamping plates 201 approach the connector, the sliding block 401 first contacts the connector surface. For irregular connectors, the sliding blocks 401 at different positions retract along the slide groove 402 and compress the spring 403 under the squeezing action of the connector surface. The reaction force of the spring 403 pushes the sliding block 401, so that the sliding block 401 is always in close contact with the connector surface, clamping the connector in the center position. The telescopic rod 505 extends out of the output rod. The telescopic rod 505 drives the gear 502 to rotate through the fixed cylinder 503 and the moving rod 504. The gear 502 drives the gear 501 to rotate. When the telescopic rod 505 is fully extended out of the output rod, the gear 501 has just rotated halfway, causing the connector to flip.
[0031] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
