Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the field of buckle installation technology, specifically to an automatic buckle installation device. Background Technology

[0002] In the automotive interior assembly field, many components (such as door panel trim, dashboard cover, headliner handles, A / B / C pillar trim, storage box covers, etc.) are commonly installed and fixed using a snap-fit ​​structure. This connection method has advantages such as convenient installation, low cost, and ease of disassembly and maintenance.

[0003] Currently, the main method for installing such clips in the industry is press-fit installation. This involves manually or using simple pneumatic / electric tools to align the clip with the mounting holes on the interior trim panel, then applying vertical or directional pressure to deform the clip's elastic arm and engage it in the hole or sheet metal structure, thus locking it in place. However, this traditional press-fit installation method has a significant drawback: it is highly dependent on the effective positioning of the interior trim panel. During installation, it is crucial to ensure that the interior trim panel maintains a stable and precise position under pressure; otherwise, the clip may not be properly installed, may be misaligned, or even damaged. However, automotive interior trim panels are often irregular, with some panels having uneven surfaces, making traditional press-fit positioning ineffective. Utility Model Content

[0004] 1. The technical problem to be solved by the utility model: This utility model provides an automatic buckle-installing device to solve the technical problems existing in the background art.

[0005] 2. Technical Solution: To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: an automatic buckle-installing device, comprising; Base; The mounting plate is positioned parallel to the top of the base, and its bottom sides are fixedly connected to the top of the base by symmetrically arranged uprights. The drive mechanism is mounted on the mounting plate; A rotating bracket is located below the mounting plate and is driven by the driving mechanism to move vertically. The gear is rotatably mounted within the rotating bracket; The first toothed plate and the second toothed plate are respectively vertically arranged on both sides of the gear and mesh with it; Two guide plates are fixedly connected to the side of the first toothed plate and the second toothed plate opposite to the gear, respectively. There are two slide rails, which are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the mounting plate. Each guide plate is vertically slidingly engaged with a corresponding slide rail. There are two positioning plates, which are fixedly connected to the bottom ends of the first toothed plate and the second toothed plate, respectively.

[0006] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a telescopic cylinder fixed to the top of the mounting plate. The telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder extends vertically downward through the mounting plate and is fixedly connected to a mating bracket. The mating bracket has first guide rods symmetrically arranged on both sides of its bottom. The first guide rods slide in cooperation with the rotating bracket. A first return spring is sleeved on the first guide rod. The first return spring is located between the mating bracket and the rotating bracket. The bottom ends of the two first guide rods are fixedly connected to a pressure plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the top two sides of the mounting bracket are symmetrically provided with second guide rods, which slide in cooperation with the mounting plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the bottom of the positioning plate is provided with an array of guide holes, and a guide post is slidably fitted inside the guide hole. A positioning steel ball is fixed at one end of the guide post, and a second reset spring is provided between the other end and the bottom of the guide hole.

[0009] Furthermore, the slide rail is also fixed to the bottom of the mounting plate by a brace plate, and the brace plate, the mounting plate and the slide rail together form a triangular support structure.

[0010] 3. Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: After the drive mechanism drives the rotating bracket to descend, it engages with the gear and the first and second toothed plates, and then with the guide plate and the corresponding slide rail forming a vertical sliding engagement, so that the two positioning plates can be raised and lowered at different heights, thereby enabling the positioning of automotive interior panels with one side higher than the other. The drive mechanism, through the cooperation of the first guide rod and the first return spring, can also press and install the square buckles on the surface of the interior panel after positioning it.

[0011] The guide post slides and compresses the second return spring within the guide hole to extend and retract to different degrees. The positioning steel balls at the bottom of the positioning plate will fit the curvature of the interior panel, improving positioning stability. Attached Figure Description

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances. Example

[0018] Example 1: Refer to Appendix Figure 1-4 An automatic buckle-installing device, comprising: Base 1; Mounting plate 2 is arranged parallel to the top of base 1, and its bottom sides are fixedly connected to the top of base 1 by symmetrically arranged uprights 201; The drive mechanism 3 is mounted on the mounting plate 2; The rotating bracket 4 is located below the mounting plate 2 and is driven by the driving mechanism 3 to move vertically. Gear 5 is rotatably mounted within the rotating bracket 4; The first toothed plate 6 and the second toothed plate 7 are respectively vertically arranged on both sides of the gear 5 and mesh with it; Two guide plates 8 are fixedly connected to the first toothed plate 6 and the second toothed plate 7 on the side opposite to the gear 5, respectively. There are two slide rails 9, which are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the mounting plate 2. Each guide plate 8 is vertically slidingly engaged with a corresponding slide rail 9. Positioning plates 10, two in number, are fixedly connected to the bottom ends of the first toothed plate 6 and the second toothed plate 7, respectively.

[0019] In this embodiment, after the automotive interior trim panel with one side higher than the other is placed on top of the base 1, the drive mechanism 3 drives the rotating bracket 4 to descend, and the gear 5 descends synchronously. Through the meshing between the gear 5 and the first toothed plate 6 and the second toothed plate 7, and in conjunction with the vertical sliding engagement formed by the guide plate 8 and the corresponding slide rail 9, the first toothed plate 6 and the second toothed plate 7 can be driven to descend synchronously. The two positioning plates 10 also descend synchronously until the bottom of the right positioning plate 10 abuts against the higher side of the interior trim panel and stops descending. At this time, the gear 5 will rotate and mesh to drive the left positioning plate 10 to continue descending until the bottom of the left positioning plate 10 abuts against the lower side of the interior trim panel. At this time, the two positioning plates 10 can be raised and lowered to different heights to position the automotive interior trim panel with one side higher than the other.

[0020] Example 2: Refer to Appendix Figure 2 and 3The driving mechanism 3 includes a telescopic cylinder 301 fixed to the top of the mounting plate 2. The telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 301 extends vertically downward through the mounting plate 2 and is fixedly connected to a cooperating bracket 302. The bottom sides of the cooperating bracket 302 are symmetrically provided with first guide rods 303. The first guide rods 303 are slidably engaged with the rotating bracket 4. A first return spring 304 is sleeved on the first guide rod 303. The first return spring 304 is located between the cooperating bracket 302 and the rotating bracket 4. The bottom ends of the two first guide rods 303 are fixedly connected to a pressure plate 305.

[0021] In this embodiment, when the telescopic cylinder 301 starts to extend downward, the cooperating bracket 302 and the rotating bracket 4 will first descend synchronously through the cooperation of the first guide rod 303 and the first return spring 304. After the two positioning plates 10 are raised and lowered to different heights in Embodiment 1 to position the uneven interior panel, the gear 5 will be limited by the first toothed plate 6 and the second toothed plate 7. At this time, the rotating bracket 4 stops descending, and the telescopic cylinder 301 continues to drive the cooperating bracket 302 to descend and squeeze the first return spring 304, which can drive the pressure plate 305 to descend and press and install the buckles placed on the surface of the interior panel. Thus, the positioning and pressing of the interior panel can be achieved with a single driving source, reducing costs.

[0022] In the above embodiment, the top two sides of the mounting bracket 302 are symmetrically provided with second guide rods 306, and the second guide rods 306 are slidably engaged with the mounting plate 2.

[0023] Example 3: Refer to Appendix Figure 4 The bottom of the positioning plate 10 is provided with arrayed guide holes 1001. A guide post 11 is slidably fitted in the guide hole 1001. A positioning steel ball 12 is fixed at one end of the guide post 11, and a second return spring 13 is provided between the other end and the bottom of the guide hole 1001.

[0024] Example 4: Refer to Appendix Figure 2 In this embodiment, when positioning the interior panel with a curved surface, after the positioning plate 10 descends, each positioning steel ball 12 at its bottom will slide and squeeze the second reset spring 13 in the guide hole 1001 according to the curvature of the interior panel, in conjunction with the guide post 11, to extend and retract to different degrees, thereby better fitting the curvature of the interior panel and improving positioning stability.

[0025] The slide rail 9 is also fixed to the bottom of the mounting plate 2 by the diagonal brace 14, and the diagonal brace 14, the mounting plate 2 and the slide rail 9 together form a triangular support structure.

[0026] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of certain implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
