At the same time, by adjusting the rotation angle of the detection air chamber 104, the fatigue life of the fan blade under the environment of different wind resistances in different directions can be tested. A plurality of temperature detectors 114 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the detection air chamber 104, and the temperature detectors 114 are used to detect the temperatures at different positions on the fan blade during the fatigue test.
[0023] As Figures 1 to 7 shown in the figure, a feed cover plate 107 is hinged to the front end of the detection support frame 102. A signal detection plate 109 is horizontally rotatably installed in the middle of the feed cover plate 107. A first adjustment motor 108 and a first driving motor 110 are fixedly installed on the feed cover plate 107. Gears are fixedly installed on the first adjustment motor 108 and the first driving motor 110. Gears are fixedly installed on the outer ring of the signal detection plate 109. The gear on the first adjustment motor 108 meshes with the gear on the outer ring of the signal detection plate 109. A feed port is provided at the front end of the detection air chamber 104. A gear is fixedly installed on the outer ring of the feed port. The gear at the front end of the detection air chamber 104 meshes with the gear on the first driving motor 110 for adjusting the rotation angle of the detection air chamber 104 inside the detection support frame 102.
[0024] As Figures 1 to 7 shown in the figure, a sealing cover plate 103 is slidably installed between the top of the detection air chamber 104 and the detection support frame 102. A wind force detection rod 113 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the sealing cover plate 103 through a support rod. The support rod on the inner wall of the sealing cover plate 103 is slidably matched with the detection chute at the top of the detection air chamber 104. The wind force detection rod 113 is used to detect the wind speed and wind direction inside the detection air chamber 104 for detecting the influence of the fan blade on the wind direction and wind speed at different fatigue degrees.
[0025] As Figures 1 to 7As shown in the figure, the driving mechanism 2 includes a driving bracket 207. The driving bracket 207 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the detection support bracket 102. At the center of the front end of the driving bracket 207, there is a spherical swing clamp 204. A fan blade clamp is fixedly installed at the front end of the spherical swing clamp 204 for clamping the detected fan blade. A connecting short rod is fixedly installed at the rear end of the spherical swing clamp 204. A second adjustment motor 201 is fixedly installed at the top of the driving bracket 207.

The connecting short rod at the rear end of the spherical swing clamp 204 is slidably matched with the limiting chute on the adjustment ring 202, which is used to limit the rotation range of the spherical swing clamp 204 on the driving bracket 207. At the same time, by starting the second adjustment motor 201 to drive the adjustment ring 202 to rotate, the angle of the limiting chute on the adjustment ring 202 can be adjusted, so as to change the rotation range of the spherical swing clamp 204 on the driving bracket 207, which is convenient for testing the fatigue life of the fan blade when it is installed at different angles.

[0026] As Figures 1 to 7 shown in the figure, a plurality of pulling mechanisms 3 are longitudinally slidably installed at the top of the detection support bracket 102. The pulling mechanism 3 includes a pulling sliding bracket 301. A rope winding wheel 302 is horizontally rotatably installed inside the pulling sliding bracket 301. A detection rope is wound around the rope winding wheel 302. An arc-shaped connecting plate 303 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rope. A fan blade clamp 304 is horizontally rotatably installed inside the arc-shaped connecting plate 303. The fan blade clamp 304 is used to clamp the fan blade and detect the vibration amplitude of the fan blade. At the same time, the fan blade can be pulled as needed to simulate the situation when fan blades of different lengths are bent under the action of gravity. An infrared signal generator 305 is fixedly installed at the front end of the fan blade clamp 304. The infrared signal generator 305 faces the signal detection board 109. The infrared signal generator 305 is used to transmit the vibration curve of the fan blade during detection to the signal detection board 109, which is convenient for real-time detection of the vibration frequency and amplitude of the fan blade.
[0027] As Figures 1 to 7As shown, both sides of the pulling and sliding bracket 301 are inverted conical surfaces. Multiple pairs of adjusting sliders 105 are horizontally slidably installed at the top of the detection support frame 102. Compression springs are fixedly installed between the inner sides of the adjusting sliders 105 and the detection support frame 102. The inner sides of the adjusting sliders 105 are inverted conical surfaces. The conical surfaces on the inner sides of the adjusting sliders 105 are in sliding fit with the conical surfaces on both sides of the pulling and sliding bracket 301. Multiple positioning sliders 106 are longitudinally slidably installed at the top of the detection support frame 102. Compression springs are fixedly installed between the bottoms of the positioning sliders 106 and the detection support frame 102. Positioning grooves are provided at the bottoms of the adjusting sliders 105, and positioning triangular keys are provided at the tops of the positioning sliders 106. The positioning triangular keys at the tops of the positioning sliders 106 are in sliding fit with the positioning grooves at the bottoms of the adjusting sliders 105 and are in contact fit with the outer surfaces of the adjusting sliders 105 at the same time.
[0028] As Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a detection cover plate 101 is fixedly installed at the top of the detection support frame 102. A pulling transmission rod 112 is horizontally rotatably installed inside the detection cover plate 101. Multiple gears are fixedly installed on the pulling transmission rod 112. The gears on the pulling transmission rod 112 correspond to the rope winding pulleys 302 and are meshed with the rope winding pulleys 302. A second driving motor 111 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the detection cover plate 101. The output shaft of the second driving motor 111 is fixedly connected to the pulling transmission rod 112. By pressing the adjusting slider 105 to slide towards the center of the detection cover plate 101, the pulling and sliding bracket 301 is driven to slide upwards at the top of the detection support frame 102, so that the corresponding rope winding pulley 302 is meshed with the corresponding gear on the pulling transmission rod 112. At the same time, the triangular key on the positioning slider 106 is in contact fit with the outer side of the adjusting slider 105 to fix the position of the adjusting slider 105, thereby fixing the height of the pulling and sliding bracket 301. Then, the second driving motor 111 is started to drive the pulling transmission rod 112 to rotate, driving the rope winding pulley 302 to rotate, and pulling the fan blade by the rope on the rope winding pulley 302 through the fan blade gripper 304.
[0029] Working principle: When it is necessary to detect the fatigue life of the fan blade, open the feeding cover plate 107 to clamp the fan blade to be detected on the front fan blade gripper, then pull down the fan blade gripper 304 to clamp it on one side of the fan blade, and then close the feeding cover plate 107 to prepare for detecting the fan blade.
[0030] During detection, press the adjusting slider 105 at the required position according to the requirements, drive the corresponding pulling and sliding bracket 301 to slide at the top of the detection support frame 102, so that the rope winding pulley 302 is meshed with the gear on the pulling transmission rod 112, and then start the second driving motor 111 to drive the rope winding pulley 302 to rotate, pulling the fan blade to simulate the fatigue life of the fan blade under different tensile forces.
[0031] After that, start the third driving motor 206 to drive the driving eccentric wheel 205 to rotate. The rotation of the driving eccentric wheel 205 drives the spherical swing clamp 204 to swing along the direction of the limit chute on the adjusting ring 202. During this period, the adjusting ring 202 can be driven to rotate by starting the second adjusting motor 201 to adjust the swinging direction of the spherical swing clamp 204, and the fatigue life of the fan during vibration in different directions can be detected. Then, the vibration frequency and vibration route of the fan blade are transmitted to the signal detection board 109 through the infrared signal generator 305 and detected in real time by the signal detection board 109. At the same time, the temperature detector 114 is used to detect the temperatures of different nodes on the fan blade.
[0032] During the detection, air is conveyed into the detection air chamber 104 through an external blower to blow the fan blade. At the same time, start the first driving motor 110 to drive the detection air chamber 104 to rotate to change the blowing direction, and detect the fatigue life of the fan blade under the influence of different wind speeds.
[0033] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; under the idea of the present invention, the technical features in the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, and the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other changes in different aspects of the present invention as described above. For the sake of simplicity, they are not provided in detail; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
