    摘要: In a tie rod adjusting apparatus which adjusts a tie rod of a steering mechanism for steering a front wheel of a motor vehicle, an open end wrench is supported by a supporting mechanism which has a freedom of four axes so as to be movable in the vehicle width direction and the vehicle longitudinal direction, tiltable in the vehicle width direction, and tiltable about an axial line (U-axis) which extends longitudinally along the length of the open end wrench. A tilting member of the supporting mechanism for tilting in the vehicle width direction is supported by a guide rail which is arcuate with the top end portion of the open end wrench serving as a center of arc. By the arcuate movement of the tilting member along the guide rail, the open end wrench is tiltable in the vehicle width direction without deviating the top end portion thereof in the vehicle width direction.

    摘要: On a measuring head which is mounted on a working end of a robot, there are provided an optical distance measuring device and a mirror which refracts an optical axis of the distance measuring device toward the plate surface of a workpiece. The measuring head is moved such that a point of irradiation of a light beam relative to the workpiece moves along a scanning line which is set so as to cross a hole edge point. The position at which the measured distance rapidly changes is set as the position of the hole edge point of a hole which crosses the scanning line. In case holes are respectively formed in a pair of plate portions which lie opposite to each other, the measuring head is provided with a distance measuring device and a mirror in a pair respectively so that the positions of both the holes on both sides can be measured at the same time.

    摘要: A supporting frame supports a measuring head which has mounted thereon a measuring element which abuts with a reference surface of a wheel mounting member so as to be inclinable about a camber axis and a toe axis. A plurality of holding arms which can be opened and closed are provided on this supporting frame. Each of the holding arms is provided with a roller. The wheel mounting member is held by these rollers in a diametrically aligned condition. Each of these rollers is made of an elastic member and is rotatably supported by fitting onto a roller axis which is parallel with a tangential line of the wheel mounting member at a point of abutment of each of the rollers with the wheel mounting member. The wheel mounting member is thus made free to incline. A suspension is moved up and down by vertically driving the supporting frame. The toe change characteristics and the camber change characteristics as a result of this vertical movement are compared with reference change characteristics to thereby discriminate the assembling accuracy of the suspension.
