[0031] The chassis dynamometer 100 of the present application can integrate the different requirements of light and heavy vehicle dynamometer into the same equipment by controlling one or two flywheels through the clutch 60, improve the versatility of the equipment, effectively improve the detection efficiency of the detection station, and reduce the waste of manpower and material resources caused by the installation of multiple equipment due to different requirements; moreover, the electromagnetic clutch 60 can withstand heavy load and impact without slipping, and can also stably transmit torque, so that the dynamometer is more durable and durable; in addition, the brake mechanism 80 is arranged on one side of the outer periphery of the second flywheel 50, and the brake is realized by the contact between the brake mechanism 80 and the outer periphery of the second flywheel 50, which can increase the contact area between the brake mechanism 80 and the second flywheel 50, and the brake is more reliable, and the stress condition of the second flywheel 50 during braking can be improved to avoid deformation of the second flywheel 50.

[0032] It should be noted that the end of the second roller group 22 is provided with a transmission shaft 224, which means that the transmission shaft 224 can be arranged at only one end of the second roller group 22 or at both ends of the second roller group 22.

[0033] As shown in Figure 3 Specifically, the brake mechanism 80 includes an extension power piece 81 and a brake disc 82, the extension power piece 81 is installed on the rack 10, the brake disc 82 is parallel to the normal direction of the outer periphery of the second flywheel 50, and the extension power piece 81 drives the brake disc 82 to contact or separate from the outer periphery of the second flywheel 50.

Arranging the mounting surface 831 parallel to the normal direction of the outer periphery of the second flywheel 50 can reduce the difficulty of installing and debugging the brake disc 82, and simplify the installation process.

[0037] As Figure 1 With Figure 2 As shown in the drawings, preferably, the first roller group 21, the second roller group 22 and the vortex machine 70 are fixed on the frame 10 through vertical bearing seats. When working, the stability of the first roller group 21, the second roller group 22 and the vortex machine 70 can be improved, the vibration and wear can be reduced, and the service life can be prolonged.

[0039] In other embodiments, the transmission mechanism 90 can also be provided with a chain wheel matched with a chain, a gear set engaged, etc. to realize synchronous transmission.

[0040] Specifically, the first roller group 21 includes two coaxially arranged first rollers 211, the two first rollers 211 are connected through a first connecting shaft 212, the first connecting shaft 212 is connected with the two first rollers 211 through a second coupling 214, and one of the first rollers 211 is connected with the driving motor 30 through a first coupling 213.

[0041] Further, the second roller group 22 includes two coaxially arranged second rollers 221, the two second rollers 221 are connected through a second connecting shaft 222, the second connecting shaft 222 is connected with the two second rollers 221 through a third coupling 223, one of the second rollers 221 is connected with the first roller 211 away from the driving motor 30 through the transmission mechanism 90, and the first roller 211 and the second roller 221 are arranged in parallel.

[0046] When measuring, when the detection object is a light vehicle, the clutch 60 is powered off and separated from the second flywheel 50, no longer driving the second flywheel 50 to rotate, at the same time, the brake mechanism 80 drives the brake disc 82 to extend and contact with the outer circumferential surface of the second flywheel 50, so that the second flywheel 50 remains stationary, at this time, the dynamometer only has the first flywheel 40 working, and the running provides the correlation to meet the light vehicle measurement requirement; when the detection object is a heavy vehicle, the clutch 60 is powered on and combined with the second flywheel 50 to drive the second flywheel 50 to rotate, so as to increase the basic inertia of the dynamometer, at the same time, the brake mechanism 80 drives the brake disc 82 to retract and separate from the second flywheel 50, the first flywheel 40 and the second flywheel 50 rotate at the same time, so as to provide the inertia required for the heavy vehicle measurement.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above only for the preferred examples of the present application, and not for limiting the present application, although the foregoing detailed description of the present application, for those skilled in the art, it still can be modified, or part of the technical features of the equivalent replacement.
