Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of testing technology, and more specifically, it relates to a tailgate trim panel inspection tool. Background Technology

[0002] In existing tailgate trim panel inspection devices, the core component of the inspection system, the detector, is usually fixedly installed above the conveyor frame. This layout is mainly designed to facilitate the detector to perform comprehensive dimensional measurement, shape inspection, and quality inspection of the tailgate trim panels conveyed on the conveyor frame from above. However, since the detectors in existing inspection devices are usually firmly connected to the mounting brackets above the conveyor frame by bolts, welding, or other rigid fastening methods, while this fixing method ensures the positional stability of the detector during long-term use, it also makes the disassembly and replacement of the detector extremely cumbersome and difficult. Especially when the detector needs maintenance, troubleshooting, accuracy calibration, or when different models of detectors need to be replaced due to changes in product specifications, the existing installation structure often becomes extremely inconvenient, affecting the flexibility of use and production efficiency of the inspection device. Utility Model Content

[0003] Technical problems to be solved In view of the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a tailgate trim panel inspection tool to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] (II) Technical Solution To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A tailgate trim panel inspection tool includes a conveyor with a motor connected to one end and a slide on the upper surface of the conveyor; it also includes a quick-release mechanism, which includes a fixed cylinder with multiple sets of slots on its surface, a rod slidably connected inside the fixed cylinder, a detector connected to the lower end of the rod, and two sets of slots on the surface of the rod.

[0005] Preferably, a slider is slidably connected to the slide, a mounting bracket is connected to the side wall of the slider, and the upper end face of the fixed cylinder is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the mounting bracket. This structural design combining sliding and fixed connections enables the detector to move and adjust flexibly in the horizontal direction.

[0006] Preferably, multiple sets of tension springs are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed cylinder, and an adjusting plate is connected to the other end of the tension spring. Two sets of locking rods are provided at the upper and lower ends of the inner side wall of the adjusting plate. The locking rods are slidably connected to the slots, and the locking rods are adapted to the slots. This combination of elastic pre-tightening and locking mechanism enables the tension springs to provide a continuous and stable radial pre-tightening force to the adjusting plate, ensuring that multiple sets of locking rods can be inserted into the slots of the insert rods simultaneously to form a circumferentially distributed multi-point decentralized locking.

[0007] Preferably, the outer wall of the fixed cylinder is threaded with a threaded ring, and the outer wall of the threaded ring is rotatably connected with a retaining ring. This design of threaded transmission and rotatable connection realizes the conversion of rotational motion to axial linear motion. The operator can drive the retaining ring to move up and down by simply rotating the threaded ring.

[0008] Preferably, the upper end face of the retaining ring is provided with multiple sets of locking rods, and the left and right ends of the inner side wall of the adjusting plate are provided with two sets of adjusting rods. The locking rod is inserted into the adjusting rod and slidably connected with the adjusting rod. This two-stage locking mechanism of locking rod inserting into adjusting rod forms a second safety guarantee on the basis of locking the retaining rod and retaining groove, effectively restricting the outward movement of the adjusting plate and preventing the inserting rod from accidentally falling off.

[0009] Preferably, a first rotating ring is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixed cylinder. The outer wall of the first rotating ring is provided with multiple sets of first levers, and the lower end face of the first rotating ring is provided with multiple sets of first push rods. The first push rods are adapted to the adjusting rod. This rotating ring drives the push rod to compress the transmission mechanism, which allows the operator to manually rotate the first lever to drive the first rotating ring to rotate and drive the first push rod to apply radial thrust to the adjusting rod.

[0010] Preferably, a second rotating ring is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixed cylinder. The outer wall of the second rotating ring is provided with multiple sets of second levers, and the upper end face of the second rotating ring is provided with multiple sets of second push rods. The second push rods are adapted to the adjusting rods. The first push rods and the second push rods are staggered. This collaborative drive design of double rotating rings and staggered push rods makes the adjusting rods at both ends of each adjusting plate correspond to the first push rod and the second push rod respectively. By rotating the two sets of rotating rings in opposite directions at the same time, synchronous bidirectional compression of the adjusting rods is achieved.

[0011] (III) Beneficial Effects Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a tailgate trim panel inspection tool with the following advantages: This tailgate trim panel inspection tool solves the problem of difficult detector replacement in traditional inspection devices through a quick-release mechanism, realizing the function of rapid detector disassembly and assembly. In traditional inspection equipment, detectors are usually fixed to the conveyor frame using rigid connections such as bolts or welding. When detector replacement is required, maintenance personnel must use wrenches and other special tools to disassemble the fasteners one by one. This process is not only cumbersome and time-consuming, but may also increase the difficulty of disassembly and assembly due to factors such as fastener corrosion, limited installation space, and high operating position, affecting production efficiency. This design, through a mechanical transmission structure, simplifies the locking and unlocking process of the detector to a simple rotation operation. The operator only needs to first rotate the threaded ring to release the locking rod's locking effect on the adjusting rod, and then simultaneously rotate the two rotating rings to drive the push rod to press the adjusting rod, pushing the adjusting plate. Moving the lever outwards disengages it from the slot, allowing for easy removal of the insert rod and disassembly of the detector. The entire operation requires no specialized tools and can be performed manually. Installing a new detector is equally simple: insert the insert rod into the fixed cylinder, rotate the rotating ring in the opposite direction to release the push rod's compression, and under the rebound force of the tension spring, the adjusting plate resets, allowing the lever to insert into the slot and lock. Finally, rotating the threaded ring drives the locking rod to insert into the adjusting rod, completing a secondary locking. The entire installation process is fast, efficient, and easy to master. This quick-release mechanism design shortens equipment downtime for maintenance, reduces production line interruptions caused by detector replacement, improves the maintainability of the testing equipment, and enhances the operational efficiency of the production line. When the production line needs to switch between testing different specifications of tailgate trim panels, the corresponding detector can be quickly replaced without affecting the normal execution of the production plan, improving the flexibility and adaptability of the testing device and reducing the company's time and labor costs.

[0017] Please see Figures 1-7A tailgate trim panel inspection tool includes a conveyor 11, with a motor 12 connected to one end of the conveyor 11. A slide 13 is provided on the upper surface of the conveyor 11, and a slider 14 is slidably connected to the slide 13. A mounting bracket 15 is connected to the side wall of the slider 14. The upper surface of a fixed cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the mounting bracket 15. The tool also includes a quick-release mechanism, which includes a fixed cylinder 21. Multiple slots 22 are formed on the surface of the fixed cylinder 21. A rod 23 is slidably connected inside the fixed cylinder 21. A detector 24 is connected to the lower surface of the rod 23. Two slots 25 are formed on the surface of the rod 23. Multiple tension springs 26 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed cylinder 21. An adjusting plate 27 is connected to the other end of the tension springs 26. Two sets of locking rods 28 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the inner side wall of the adjusting plate 27. The locking rods 28 are slidably connected to the slots 22 and are adapted to the slots 25. The outer wall of the fixed cylinder 21 is threaded. A threaded ring 29 is connected, and a retaining ring 210 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the threaded ring 29. Multiple sets of locking rods 211 are provided on the upper end face of the retaining ring 210. Two sets of adjusting rods 212 are provided at the left and right ends of the inner side wall of the adjusting plate 27. The locking rods 211 are inserted into the adjusting rods 212 and slidably connected to the adjusting rods 212. A first rotating ring 213 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixed cylinder 21. Multiple sets of first levers 214 are provided on the outer wall of the first rotating ring 213. Multiple sets of first push rods 215 are provided on the lower end face of the first rotating ring 213. The first push rods 215 are adapted to the adjusting rods 212. A second rotating ring 216 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixed cylinder 21. Multiple sets of second levers 217 are provided on the outer wall of the second rotating ring 216. Multiple sets of second push rods 218 are provided on the upper end face of the second rotating ring 216. The second push rods 218 are adapted to the adjusting rods 212. The first push rods 215 and the second push rods 218 are staggered.

[0018] In this invention, the detector 24 can be quickly disassembled and assembled using a quick-release mechanism. Specifically, when the detector 24 needs to be disassembled, the operator first needs to rotate the threaded ring. The rotation of the threaded ring drives multiple sets of locking rods 211 inserted into the adjusting rod 212 to move downwards via the retaining ring 210, causing the locking rods 211 to disengage from the adjusting rod 212. Then, the operator can manually rotate the first rotating ring 213 and the second rotating ring 216 in opposite directions simultaneously via the first lever 214 and the second lever 217, thereby driving the corresponding first push rod 215 and second push rod 216. 18. The first push rod 215 and the second push rod 218 are staggered. Each set of adjusting rods 212 at both ends of the adjusting plate 27 corresponds to a set of first push rods 215 on one side and a set of second push rods 218 on the other side. The side walls of the first push rod 215 and the second push rod 218 are both inclined. Therefore, the rotation of the first rotating ring 213 drives the first push rod 215 to press the adjusting rod 212 on one side. At the same time, the rotation of the second rotating ring 216 drives the second push rod 218 to press the adjusting rod 212 on the other side, pushing the adjusting rod 212 to move the adjusting plate 27 towards the fixed cylinder 21. As the outer side moves, the adjusting plate 27 drives multiple sets of locking rods 28 to move outward synchronously, causing the locking rods 28 to slide along the slot 22 and gradually disengage from the locking and fixing state with the slot 25. The connecting spring is stretched, and then the insertion rod 23 can be pulled out, thereby removing the detector 24. When a new detector 24 needs to be installed, the insertion rod 23 at the upper end of the new detector 24 is inserted into the fixing cylinder 21. Then, the operator rotates the two sets of first rotating rings 213 and second rotating rings 216 in the opposite direction, causing the first push rod 215 and the second push rod 216 connected to the lower end of the first rotating ring 213 and the second rotating ring 216 to move outward. Rod 218 releases the pressure on the corresponding adjusting rod 212. Then, under the action of the connecting spring, the connecting spring rebounds and drives the adjusting plate 27, along with the adjusting rod 212 and the locking rod 28, to reset. The locking rod 28 is inserted again into the slot 25 opened on the side wall of the insert rod 23, fixing the insert rod 23 and thus fixing the new detector 24. Finally, the threaded ring is rotated so that the threaded ring drives multiple sets of locking rods 211 to move upward through the locking ring 210, so that the locking rods 211 are inserted again into the corresponding adjusting rods 212 for further fixing, thereby completing the replacement of the detector 24. After the detector 24 is installed, the workpiece conveying and inspection work can begin. The motor 12 drives the conveyor 11 to transport the workpiece to be inspected to below the detector 24. The slider 14 can slide along the slide frame 13 and drive the detector 24 to move left and right through the mounting frame 15 to perform all-round inspection of the workpiece.
