#AUTOMATIC WHEEL LOCKING SYSTEM PATENT GRABBER MANUAL#

The rear wheel adjustment apparatus may be disposed in correspondence with a rear wheel of the vehicle, connectable to the moving apparatus, and configured to adjust alignment of the rear wheel by adjusting a cam-bolt and a cam-nut employed in a linkage structure of the rear wheel. The rear wheel moving apparatus may be disposed in correspondence with a rear wheel of the vehicle and slidable in a vehicle width direction. The front wheel adjustment apparatus may be disposed in correspondence with a front wheel of the vehicle and configured to adjust alignment of the front wheel by adjusting a tie-rod and a lock-nut employed in a linkage structure of the front wheel. SUMMARYĮmbodiments of the present invention provide a system for automatic wheel alignment adjustment having advantages of preventing stoppage of a whole system of an inspection line due to malfunctioning of a partial apparatus.Īn exemplary system for automatic wheel alignment adjustment of a vehicle in an inspection line is disposed under a mounting table mounted with a vehicle, and the exemplary system may include a front wheel adjustment apparatus, a rear wheel moving apparatus, and a rear wheel adjustment apparatus.

The above information disclosed in this Background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the background of the invention and therefore it may contain information that does not form the prior art that is already known to a person of ordinary skill in the art. In this case, the lack of space often leads to stopping the production line while the robot is being repaired. Such a heavy and large wheel alignment adjustment apparatus may be difficult to be replaced even if the robot breaks down, and the wheel alignment adjustment apparatus needs to be repaired while the robot is indisposed.

In the related art, in order to adjust the wheel alignment of a vehicle of which production is completed, manual work is generally performed by an operator, but an automation system using an industrial robot to automate the alignment adjustment is under development.ĭue to heavy tools used for the wheel alignment adjustment, a large robot having a high payload may be used, and thus the weight of the robot itself may be much more than 100 kg. The wheel alignment is composed of elements such as toe, camber, caster, and king pin inclination angle, and they complement each other to reduce the operating force of the steering wheel, provide stability of the steering wheel operation, provide straight line stability of the vehicle, contribute to the steering wheel resilience, and reduce tire wear. The wheel alignment may affect a vehicle's dynamics in various driving circumstances, such as running in a straight line, cornering, braking, and accelerating. BACKGROUNDĪll components that make up a suspension and steering system in a vehicle must be assembled correctly according to the design specifications of the vehicle, and an interlocking state of these components is the basis of wheel alignment.

The present invention relates to a system for automatic wheel alignment adjustment. 30, 2019, which application is hereby incorporated herein by reference. 10-2019-0120373, filed in the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Sep. This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No.
