[0015] Please see Figure 1 A riveting device for a dial zeroing gear includes: a frame 1, a fixture 2, a cylinder 3, and a riveting rod 4.

[0016] Please see Figure 5 The dial 5 has a first circular groove 5A and a second circular groove 5B, which partially overlap. The first circular groove 5A has a larger diameter and is deeper. The zero-adjustment gear is mounted in the second circular groove 5B on the dial 5, and the pointer shaft is mounted in the first circular groove 5A on the dial 5. The first circular groove 5A also provides mounting space for the gear disc that meshes with the zero-adjustment gear.

[0017] Please see Figure 1 The equipment frame 1 is used for the installation of other components. More specifically, the equipment frame 1 includes a base plate 11 and a frame body 12, with the frame body 12 fixedly connected to the base plate 11.

[0018] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fixture 2 is installed on the equipment rack 1, specifically on the base plate 11. The fixture 2 has three horizontal support surfaces for supporting the dial 5. These three horizontal support surfaces include: a lower first horizontal support surface 2A and two higher second horizontal support surfaces 2B.

[0019] When the dial 5 is placed on the fixture 2, the bottom surface of the second circular groove 5B contacts the first horizontal support surface 2A, and the bottom surface of the edge portion of the dial 5 contacts two second horizontal support surfaces 2B.

[0020] The first horizontal support surface 2A also has a screw groove 2C. More specifically, the screw groove 2C can be a regular hexagon. Before the dial 5 is placed on the fixture 2, the screw nut is placed in the screw groove 2C. The bottom wall of the second circular groove 5B has a screw hole 5C for the screw to pass through.

[0021] The fixture 2 also has a first vertical abutment surface 2D and two second vertical abutment surfaces 2E. These three vertical abutment surfaces fit into the circular outer wall of the first circular groove 5A, forming a three-point positioning system based on the principle that three points determine a circle. That is, the screw hole 5C is slightly larger than the screw, only used to allow the screw to pass through, so that the circular outer wall of the first circular groove 5A abuts against the first vertical abutment surface 2D and the two second vertical abutment surfaces 2E, completing the positioning of the dial 5 and aligning the screw with the screw hole 5C.

[0022] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the fixture 2 includes a concave base 21, a positioning block 22, and two positioning strips 23.

[0023] The base 21 is used for mounting to the equipment rack 1. The positioning block 22 is fixedly connected to the horizontal part of the base 21, or more specifically, a set of bolts can be used to achieve the fixed connection. A first horizontal support surface 2A, a screw groove 2C, and a first vertical abutment surface 2D are provided on the positioning block 22.

[0024] The positioning strip is fixedly connected to the base 21. The positioning strip is inclined, and the two positioning strips 23 can be designed to be mirror symmetrical. The second horizontal support surface 2B and the second vertical abutment surface 2E are set on the positioning strip.

[0025] Based on the above embodiment, "the fixture 2 includes: a concave base 21, a positioning block 22 and two positioning strips 23".

[0026] Please see Figure 2 In some embodiments, the closer to the positioning block 22, the smaller the distance between the two positioning strips 23. That is, if the diameter of the first circular groove 5A in the horizontal direction is taken as the dividing line, the first vertical abutment surface 2D and the two second vertical abutment surfaces 2E are on the same side. More specifically, the end of the positioning strip closer to the positioning block 22 is connected to the horizontal portion of the base 21, and the end farther away from the positioning block 22 is connected to the vertical portion of the base 21.

[0027] In this way, the dial 5 can be placed / removed from the fixture 2 by translation, which is relatively convenient. However, after the dial 5 is positioned by the first vertical abutment surface 2D and the two second vertical abutment surfaces 2E, the dial 5 is not limited.

[0028] Please see Figure 3 In other embodiments, the fixture 2 further includes a connector rod 24. The closer to the positioning block 22, the greater the distance between the two positioning strips 23. The end of the positioning strip closest to the positioning block 22 is hinged to the base 21. Both longitudinal portions of the base 21 and the end of the positioning strip furthest from the positioning block 22 have holes for the connector rod 24 to be inserted. More specifically, the end of the positioning strip furthest from the positioning block 22 may be hinged to a connector block 23A with holes.

[0029] Pull out the connector 24 and swing the two positioning bars 23 to the longitudinal direction; place the dial 5 onto the fixture 2 by translation; swing the two positioning bars 23 to the tilt position to position the dial 5; insert the connector 24 to fix the two positioning bars 23 to the base 21. If the diameter of the first circular groove 5A is taken as the dividing line, the first vertical abutment surface 2D and the two second vertical abutment surfaces 2E are located on both sides, which can position the dial 5 while restricting the translation of the dial 5.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 The cylinder 3 is fixedly connected to the frame 12 of the equipment frame 1, above the corresponding screw slot 2C.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The rivet rod 4 is mounted on the piston rod of the cylinder 3. The rivet rod 4 includes: rod body 41, sliding sleeve 42, limiting member 43 and spring 44.

[0032] The rod 41 is stepped, and its top is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the cylinder 3.

[0033] The limiting member 43 is fixed to the rod body 41. More specifically, the rod body 41 has a through hole, and the limiting member 43 is a pin that passes through and is engaged with the through hole.

[0034] The sliding sleeve 42 is fitted and slides on the rod body 41. The sliding sleeve 42 also has a groove 42A that cooperates with the limiting member 43. That is, there are two grooves 42A, which are opposite to each other.

[0035] Spring 44 is sleeved on rod 41. It is a compression spring 44. Its upper end abuts against the interface of rod 41, and its lower end abuts against the top surface of sliding sleeve 42.

[0036] When assembling the rivet rod 4: first, put the spring 44 into the rod body 41; then put the sliding sleeve 42 into the rod body 41; then manually move the sliding sleeve 42 so that the sliding sleeve 42 abuts against and compresses the spring 44 so that the two grooves 42A of the sliding sleeve 42 coincide with the through hole of the rod body 41; finally, insert and fix the connector into the rod body 41, and at the same time, the connector also passes through the two grooves 42A. Release the sliding sleeve 42, and under the action of the spring 44, the sliding sleeve 42 keeps the inner top wall of the groove 42A against the connector.

[0037] In summary, the riveting process of the riveting device is as follows: the screw nut is placed in the screw groove 2C; the dial 5 is placed in the fixture 2, the screw passes through the dial 5, and the dial 5 is supported by the first horizontal support surface 2A and two second horizontal support surfaces 2B, and positioned by the first vertical abutment surface 2D and two second vertical abutment surfaces 2E; the washer, the ferrule, and the zero-adjustment gear are placed in sequence; the cylinder 3 is activated, the riveting rod 4 moves down, first the bottom surface of the sliding sleeve 42 contacts the dial 5, pressing the dial 5 tightly, then the sliding sleeve 42 remains stationary, and the rod 41 continues to move down to rivet the zero-adjustment gear.

[0038] In some embodiments, the limiting member 43 is adjustable up and down along the fixed connection of the rod 41.

[0039] Under the action of spring 44, the sliding sleeve 42 keeps the inner top wall of the groove rail 42A against the connecting piece. By adjusting the limiting piece 43, the bottom position of the sliding sleeve 42 in this state can be adjusted to ensure that the bottom surface of the sliding sleeve 42 contacts the dial 5 first, and the rod 41 then presses and rivets the zero-adjustment gear.

[0040] Please see Figure 4 Furthermore, the position on the rod 41 through which the limiting member 43 passes is a waist-shaped groove. The limiting member 43 includes: a first stop 431 with a stud and a second stop 432 with a threaded hole.

[0041] That is, the stud of the first stop 431 passes through the rod body 41 and is threaded to the second stop 432. Tightening the second stop 432 locks the first stop 431 and the second stop 432 onto the rod body 41.
