Abstract

PURPOSE:To maintain a stable accuracy in assembly of outer plate members of a car body easily and in short time. CONSTITUTION:In a car assembly line, after a height difference between the outer plate surface of a body frame 1 and that of a trunk lid is inspected and when the trunk lid is opened, the mounting position of a striker 4 is shifted with an adjustment tool 7 without loosening mounting bolts 6 of the striker 4 to adjust a height difference between the outer plate surface of the body frame 1 and that of the trunk lid.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is for adjusting a step between an outer plate surface of an opening / closing member such as a trunk lid which is openably / closably mounted on a body of an automobile and an outer plate surface of the body in an automobile assembly line. The present invention relates to a method for adjusting an outer plate member assembly of an automobile body.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In an automobile assembly line, for example, in the case of a trunk lid, one end of which is supported by a hinge fixed to a body of a body is supported by a hinge so as to be freely opened and closed. As a result, the trunk lid or body itself is assembled with either a trunk lid lock or a striker using assembly jigs, etc. Also, due to the resilience of the weather strip, the trunk lid cushion, etc., the outer plate surface of the body and the outer plate surface of the trunk lid are not flush with each other, and a step is generated.

Therefore, as a conventional assembling adjustment method when a step which does not satisfy the required assembling accuracy is generated, the striker mounting bolts are loosened in the same plane in the body appearance check inspection process of the assembly line. Adjust the mounting position of the striker so that, and then tighten the striker again to mount it.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the prior art, the striker mounting bolts have to be loosened for fine adjustment, which is cumbersome, time consuming and poor in workability, and depends on the skill of a skilled worker. It had a problem that it had to be. The present invention has been made in view of such problems of the conventional technique, and an object of the present invention is to provide an outer plate member assembly for an automobile body that can easily and stably secure stable assembly accuracy. It is intended to provide an attachment adjustment method.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides, in an automobile assembly line, after inspecting a step between an outer plate surface of a body and an outer plate surface of an opening / closing member such as a trunk lid, The step is adjusted by displacing the mounting position of the striker with an adjusting tool without loosening the mounting bolt of the striker by opening the opening / closing member.

[0006]

The outer plate surface of the body and the outer plate surface of the opening / closing member such as the trunk lid are quickly adjusted to a proper step.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing an outer plate member assembly adjusting method for an automobile body according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view when a trunk lid is in an open state, FIG. 3 is a perspective view when the trunk lid is in a closed state, and FIG. FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. 3.

As shown in FIG. 2, the trunk lid 2 is attached to the body 1 through the pair of left and right hinges 3. Then, to close the trunk lid 2 attached to the body body 1 as shown in FIG.
It is performed by hooking a trunk lid lock (not shown) attached to the trunk lid 2 on the striker 4 attached to the.

As shown in FIG. 4, the step between the outer plate surface 2a of the trunk lid 2 and the outer plate surface 1a of the body 1 in the closed state of the trunk lid 2 is relative to the trunk lid lock (not shown) and the striker 4. And the weather strip 5, the trunk lid cushion (not shown) and the like are interposed between the body 1 and the trunk lid 2.

Such a step is a plus step in which the outer plate surface 2a of the trunk lid 2 projects from the outer plate surface 1a of the body 1 and the outer plate surface of the trunk lid 2 with the outer plate surface 1a of the body 1 as a reference. There is a minus level difference in which 2a is pulled in from the outer plate surface 1a of the body 1, and the required accuracy of mounting the outer plate member of the car body is that the outer plate surface 2a of the trunk lid 2 is on the outer plate surface 1a of the body 1. On the other hand, it must be a flat step or a slightly raised step.

Therefore, in an automobile assembly line, the outer plate surface 1a of the body 1 and the outer plate surface 2 of the trunk lid 2 are
The level difference with a is inspected in the closed state of the trunk lid 2 shown in FIG. If the inspection does not satisfy the desired assembling accuracy, after opening the trunk lid 2 as shown in FIG. 2, the two mounting bolts 6 are attached to the long hole 4a of the striker 4 as shown in FIG. The corner portion 4b of the striker 4 which is inserted and attached to the body body 1 with a specified tightening torque.
The strike cassette groove 7a of the adjusting tool 7 is engaged with.

As shown in FIG. 1, when the operator turns the grip portion 7a of the adjusting tool 7 in the direction of the arrow B, the striker 4 is attached to the body 1 using the elongated hole 4a. The striker 4 can be displaced in the direction of the arrow b with respect to the body body 1 by overcoming the specified tightening torque. Further, the striker 4 can be displaced in the arrow d direction with respect to the body body 1 by rotating the grip portion 7a in the arrow D direction.

Therefore, the trunk lid 2 is attached to the body 1
The grip 7a can be rotated in the direction of the arrow B when it is desired to be raised with respect to the body 1, and the grip 7a can be rotated in the direction of the arrow D when the trunk lid 2 is lowered with respect to the body 1. Good. If the mounting position of the striker 4 is adjusted as described above, the relative positional relationship between the trunk lid lock (not shown) and the striker 4 changes, and proper assembling accuracy of the trunk lid 2 can be quickly obtained.

[0014]

As described above, according to the present invention, stable adjustment of the striker by the adjusting tool can provide stable assembling accuracy of the outer plate member of the automobile body in a short time, thereby improving workability. Can be achieved.

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1. In an automobile assembly line, after inspecting a step between an outer plate surface of a body and an outer plate surface of an opening / closing member such as a trunk lid, the opening / closing member is opened to loosen a striker mounting bolt. Without adjusting the step, the mounting position of the striker is adjusted by an adjusting tool to adjust the step.
