Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive airbag installation technology, specifically an airbag skin installation device. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of automotive technology, people's requirements for vehicles are gradually shifting from practicality to comfort. As a result, air suspension, which can buffer driving, dampen vibrations, and stabilize vehicles, has been widely used. Among these components, airbags are one of the important parts to achieve the above objectives.
[0003] The current assembly method for air suspension airbag assemblies typically involves placing the airbag base on a simple platform, attaching the airbag skin and top cover, and directly introducing compressed air through the air inlet of the top cover. Once the airbag skin is tightly fitted to the airbag base, the compressed air supply is stopped and the air is vented. The airbag is then checked for proper installation, and finally, compressed air is introduced into the airbag assembly for a leak test using soapy water. This assembly method has the following disadvantages: 1. The assembly process lacks positioning and guiding structures, making it prone to deviations. 2. The assembly platform lacks safety protection measures, resulting in low worker safety. 3. The assembly mechanism cannot adapt to the assembly requirements of various airbag models.
[0004] Furthermore, with the year-on-year increase in automobile sales, the demand for automotive production line parts has also increased significantly, leading to longer delivery cycles, including for automotive airbags. Given the continuously increasing delivery cycles and quantities of airbag orders, continuing to use existing tooling for installation cannot meet the delivery cycle requirements; new tooling is needed to meet the demands of the new production pace. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an airbag skin installation device to solve the problems of low assembly efficiency, large assembly error, lack of safety measures, and inability to adapt to the assembly needs of various models in the prior art airbag assembly tooling.
[0006] This utility model provides an airbag skin installation device, which includes: an assembly frame, an assembly platform for installing airbags in the middle of the assembly frame, an electric press fixedly mounted on the assembly frame at the upper part of the assembly platform, a pressing tool for pressing the airbag assembly connected to the telescopic rod of the electric press, and a pressing base for cooperating to press the airbag assembly on the assembly platform corresponding to the pressing tool; the pressing base is connected to an external high-pressure air source for supplying air to the airbag assembly.
[0007] Furthermore, the airbag assembly includes: an airbag base, an airbag skin, and an airbag cover plate, wherein the top surface of the airbag base is connected to the clamping fixture, and the bottom surface of the airbag base is clamped to the airbag skin; the bottom surface of the airbag cover plate is connected to the clamping base, and the top surface of the airbag cover plate is clamped to the airbag skin.
[0008] Furthermore, the top surface of the airbag base is threadedly connected to or movably snapped into the clamping fixture; the bottom surface of the airbag cover is threadedly connected to or movably snapped into the clamping base; the airbag base and the airbag cover are coaxially arranged with the telescopic rod of the electric press.
[0009] In this embodiment of the invention, the pressing base is provided with a plurality of protective railings evenly distributed around its circumference for safety protection during the pressing process.
[0010] In this embodiment of the invention, the clamping fixture is coaxially arranged with the telescopic rod of the electric press and is threadedly connected to the telescopic rod.
[0011] In this embodiment of the invention, the assembly table has a positioning hole, and the clamping base has a positioning post on the side facing the assembly table. The clamping base and the assembly table are connected and positioned by the cooperation of the positioning post and the positioning hole.
[0012] In this embodiment of the invention, the pressing base has a vent hole inside, which is connected to the vent hole on the airbag cover and communicates with the inside of the airbag. The vent hole is used to connect to an external high-pressure air source for inflation and deflation when pressing the airbag.
[0013] In this embodiment of the invention, a gas filling / draining switch for controlling the supply of external gas is fixedly installed on the assembly frame.

This enables the positioning of the airbag base and airbag cover plate during the airbag skin assembly process, ensuring assembly accuracy. Furthermore, it allows for precise inflation and deflation of the airbag during the airbag assembly pressing process, ensuring assembly quality.
[0015] The installation of guardrails can improve the safety of the installation process and protect the safety of operators.
[0016] In addition, the installation device can be used to install different models of products by changing the clamping fixture, thereby improving the utilization rate of the device and increasing the production efficiency of airbags.

[0023] This utility model provides an airbag skin mounting device, such as... Figure 1 The diagram shows the structure of the installation device. In a specific embodiment, the installation device includes: an assembly frame 1, an assembly platform 11 for mounting airbags in the middle of the assembly frame 1, an electric press 2 fixedly mounted on the assembly frame 1 above the assembly platform 11, and a pressing fixture 3 for pressing the airbag assembly connected to the telescopic rod of the electric press 2. In this embodiment, the pressing fixture 3 and the telescopic rod of the electric press 2 are coaxially arranged to ensure a high yield rate during the pressing process. Furthermore, the pressing fixture 3 is threadedly connected to the telescopic rod, facilitating the replacement of the corresponding pressing fixture 3 according to different airbag models. Since this technical solution can press-fit various airbag models, in this embodiment, the telescopic rod and the pressing fixture 3 are fixedly connected by a threaded connection for easy installation and disassembly to adapt to different airbag models. This utility model patent is not limited to using a threaded connection to fix the telescopic rod and the pressing fixture 3; other convenient installation and disassembly methods such as snap-fit can also be used for fixed installation.
[0024] The assembly table 11 is provided with a clamping base 4 corresponding to the clamping fixture 3 for clamping the airbag assembly.
