Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to connecting wire harnesses, specifically, a tooling for efficiently installing aviation connector retaining rings and nuts. Background Technology
[0002] In the industrial sector, the installation of fastening nuts for aviation connectors involves using C-shaped retaining rings to assemble the connector body and the fastening nut together. Currently, the installation of fastening nuts for aviation connectors is mostly done manually using hand pliers and hand stamping equipment, which results in low installation efficiency and unreliable installation.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a tooling for efficiently installing aviation connector retaining rings and nuts to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tooling for efficiently installing aviation connector retaining rings and nuts, thereby improving assembly accuracy, reducing assembly difficulty, and increasing assembly efficiency.
[0005] The technical solution is as follows: A tooling for efficiently installing aviation connector retaining rings and nuts includes a base, on which a connector and nut assembly positioning fixture is provided, and a stamping fixture and a connector retaining ring pressing knife are provided corresponding to the connector and nut assembly positioning fixture; The connector and nut assembly positioning fixture has a contoured loading groove, which is used to load the aviation connector body into the fixing component. The stamping fixture is used as the corresponding receiving component for the nut, which together with the aviation connector body loading fixing component to form the main connecting component loading and receiving structure. The base is equipped with a left-standing pressure spring cylinder, a front-pressing nut, and a connector cylinder; The connector retaining spring pressure knife is connected to the retaining spring pressure knife and the left and right cylinder front and rear balance movement locking rod.
[0006] Furthermore, the base is equipped with a dual brake button (left button A) and a dual brake safety button (left button B).
[0007] Furthermore, a solenoid valve is installed on the base.
[0008] Furthermore, a microcomputer controller is installed on the base.
[0009] Furthermore, the base is equipped with a rotary switch for adjusting the air pressure.
[0010] Compared with existing technologies, this invention can improve assembly accuracy, reduce assembly difficulty, and increase assembly efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0013] Figure 3 This is the third schematic diagram of this utility model.
[0014] Figure 4 This is the fourth schematic diagram of this utility model. Detailed Implementation Example:
[0015] Please see Figure 1-4 This embodiment demonstrates a tooling for efficiently installing aviation connector retaining rings and nuts, including a base 1, on which: Dual brake button left button A2, dual brake safety button left button B3; 4. Connector and nut assembly positioning fixture; 5. Stamping fixture; 6. Connector snap ring clamping knife; Right pressing snap ring cylinder 7, left pressing snap ring cylinder 8; Cylinder 9, solenoid valve 10, and microcomputer controller 11 of the front stamping nut and connector; 12. Air pressure adjustment knob switch; 13. Snap spring pressure knife and left and right cylinder front and rear balance movement locking rod; in: The connector and nut assembly positioning fixture 4 has a contour loading groove, which is used to load the aviation connector body 14 with the fixing component. The stamping fixture 5 is used as the corresponding receiving component for the nut 16, which together with the aviation connector body loading fixing component to form the main connecting component loading and receiving structure of the fixing component.
[0016] Installation procedure for aviation connector retaining rings and nuts: 1) Place the aviation connector body 14 into the assembly fixture 4, and then put the connector C-shaped retaining ring 15 into the head of 14. At this time, the retaining ring is exactly in the circular groove of the connector body. Then, put the nut 16 into the stamping fixture 5 position in the fixture 4. In this way, the nut 16, retaining ring 15 and connector body 14 are fixed in the corresponding positions in the fixture 4. 2) Adjust the microcomputer controller 11 and the air pressure regulating switch 12 to the standard, and adjust the stamping knife 6 so that the retaining spring 15 is at the same horizontal line position; 3) Press the left button A2 of the double brake button and the left button B3 of the double brake safety button. The circlip punch will move towards the circlip 15 at the same speed. The circlip 15 will press into the circular groove of the circlip of the large connector body. Then the stamping fixture 5 connected to the front punch press 9 will stamp the nut towards the body and install the nut to fit the connector body. 4) Then, while the left and right punches separate and reset the punching cutters, the punch press 9 continues to push the nut onto the connector body and then separate and reset it; 5) After the snap ring 15 is simultaneously inserted into the annular groove of the nut 16 and the connector body 14, the finished product 17 is assembled, and the assembly is complete.
[0017] Compared with existing technologies, this invention can improve assembly accuracy, reduce assembly difficulty, and increase assembly efficiency.
[0018] For those skilled in the art, various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
