JPH0230441A - Method for inserting material in elastic body having pocket and installation of car pedal pad - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To achieve passing through the entrance of a material which is larger than the entrance, by inserting a plurality of strip elastic plate in a pocket of a furnished elastic body which has a small entrance, expanding a rear tip of a group of strips, holding a material to be inserted, putting the material to have it passed through the entrance. CONSTITUTION:An upper point 2a of a plurality of strip elastic plate 2 is attached to an inner periphery 1a of a ring hardware 1. The inner periphery 1a of the ring hardware 1 is of almost the same shape as that of an entrance 3a of a pedal pad 3, and is made larger than a pedal plate 4 to be inserted, and a slit passing through an arm 4a of the pedal plate 4. A lower tip of the strip elastic plate 2 being inserted in the entrance 3a of the elastic pad 3, the pedal plate 4 is inserted from the inner periphery 1a of the ring hardware 1. The plate 4 is put and lowered through a group of elastic bodies by a putting arm 5, and as the entrance 3a of the pad 3 is expanded, the plate 4 is inserted into a pocket 3b of the pad 3. In this way, automation of all the processes can be executed.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention Field of Application 2 The present invention relates to a method for inserting an object larger than the entrance of the bag into the bosom of a bag-like elastic body, such as a knife for covering the pedal plate of an automobile brake pedal with a pedal pad; This article relates to its application equipment.

Conventional technology and its problems: In the past, this is the case.Using the brake pedal example above, place the top surface (tread surface) of the pedal plate against the opening (entrance) of the pad, and use a spatula to widen the opening of the pad. The method was to do it while doing so. Naturally, this is manual work and inevitably inefficient.

Means for solving the problem: Therefore, in the present invention, we decided to take the following method. In other words, several strip-shaped elastic plates are lined up around the entire circumference of the inlet with the length direction facing the center axis 1 of the opening 11, with the tips inserted into the bosom and arranged in this way. The rear ends of the strips are spread out to accommodate the object to be inserted therein, and the object is forced in the axial direction to pass through the inlet.

Example: Fig. 1 shows the method of the present invention as a device, and is a schematic plan view of the device for inserting a pedal plate into the pedal pad of a brake pedal, and Fig. 2 is a cross section taken along line AA in Fig. 1. It is a diagram. In the figure, 1 is an annular metal fitting for attaching the lower end a of the strip-shaped elastic plate 2.

Supported horizontally, the inner periphery 1a of the hardware 1 has a shape substantially similar to the opening 3 of the pedal pad 3 (above-mentioned inlet) and is a comb larger than 4 for the pedal play 1 inserted into the slit, and also for the pedal plate 3. It has a cut 1b through which the arm 4a of No. 4 can pass.

Then, several strip-shaped elastic plates 2 are attached to the inner periphery 1a of the hardware 1, and the top @ 2a is attached (the elastic plates 2 are distributed over the entire inner periphery of the hardware 1 (IC)). Only three are shown as an example, and the others are omitted. 4 is a pedal plate;
4a is the pushing arm that enters, 6 is the holder C of the pad 3 which can be lowered, and the F@ of the elastic plate 2 can be raised so that it fits within the opening of the pad 3. With such a device, one end 2b of the strip-shaped elastic plate is inserted into the opening 3a of the pad, and the pedal plate 4 supplied to the upper part of the hardware 1 is pushed down through the group of elastic plates by the pushing arm 5. Pedal sills 1 and 4 press down on the pad entrance 3a via the elastic plate 2 and open the pad 3.

Effects: According to this method and device, the receiver supplies the pad 3 to the table 6, the receiver inserts the lower end 2b of the elastic plate into the pad opening 3a by raising the table 6, and the plate 4 is removed by the pushing arm 5. Almost all of the steps such as catching the pad, pushing it down for 15 seconds, and inserting the pad into the pad 3b (2) can be performed by machines, that is, it is possible to automate the entire process.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]

FIG. 1 is a plan view of an example of an apparatus for carrying out the method of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. 1, annular hardware 2, elastic plate 3, pad 4, pedal plate 5, push arm 6, support (pudaike 1 figure)

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1) When inserting an object larger than the size of the inlet into the bosom of a bag-like elastic body having an inlet smaller than the bosom,
Several elastic strips are lined up along the edge of the inlet with their lengths in the direction of the central axis of the inlet, with their tips inserted into the bosom, and the rear ends of the strips arranged in this way are spread out. the object to be inserted therein, and the object is pushed in the axial direction through the inlet. 2) Horizontally support an annular hardware 1 which has a similar shape to the frontage of the pedal pad 3, has an inner circumference slightly larger than the pedal plate 4, and has a cut through which the arm of the pedal plate 4 can pass; Several strip-shaped elastic plates 2 are placed along this line.
The upper end of the elastic plate group is fixed and suspended, and the lower end of this group of elastic plates is formed so as to be gathered in an area smaller than the opening of the pedal pad 3. Below the lower end of the strip-shaped elastic plate, there is a holder for the pedal pad 3 that can move up and down. The lever holder can be raised until the lower end of the strip-shaped elastic plate fits into the opening of the pedal pad, and the pedal plate 4 fed to the upper part of the annular hardware 1 is passed through the group of strip-shaped elastic plates into the foot of the pedal pad 3. A pedal pad attachment device equipped with a push-in arm that can be pushed down to a maximum height.
