COMPONENT ASSEMBLY STRUCTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18582658 titled 'COMPONENT ASSEMBLY STRUCTURE
The component assembly structure described in the patent application involves a positioning pin on a base, a first component with a first hole, and a second component with a second hole to be fitted to the positioning pin.
- The positioning pin has a first shaft portion on the base and a second shaft portion with a smaller diameter on the tip end.
- The first component is positioned by fitting its first hole to the first shaft portion of the positioning pin.
- The second component is positioned by fitting its second hole to the second shaft portion of the positioning pin.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in various assembly processes where precise positioning of components is required. - It can be applied in industries such as manufacturing, automotive, electronics, and more.
Problems Solved: - Ensures accurate alignment and positioning of components during assembly. - Helps streamline the assembly process and reduce errors.
Benefits: - Improves efficiency and accuracy in component assembly. - Reduces the likelihood of misalignment or faulty assembly.
Commercial Applications: - This technology can be utilized in automated assembly lines to enhance productivity and quality control. - It can be integrated into machinery and equipment used in manufacturing processes.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the positioning pin ensure precise alignment of components?
The positioning pin has different shaft portions that fit into corresponding holes on the components, ensuring accurate positioning.
2. What industries can benefit the most from this component assembly structure?
Industries such as manufacturing, automotive, and electronics can benefit from the improved efficiency and accuracy it provides.
Original Abstract Submitted
The component assembly structure includes a component to be assembled in which a positioning pin is provided on a base, a first component with a first hole to be fitted to the positioning pin, and a second component with a second hole to be fitted to the positioning pin. The positioning pin includes a first shaft portion in the side on the base and a second shaft portion, having a diameter smaller than that of the first shaft portion, in the side on the tip end. The first component is positioned on the component to be assembled by fitting the first hole to the first shaft portion. The second component is positioned on the component to be assembled by fitting the second hole to the second shaft portion.
