DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0046] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0047] Thus, a feature indicated in this specification is intended to illustrate one of the features of one embodiment of the present invention, rather than to imply that every embodiment of the present invention must have the described feature. In addition, it should be noted that this specification describes many features. Although certain features can be combined together to illustrate possible system designs, these features can also be used in other, not explicitly described, combinations. Thus, unless otherwise noted, the described combinations are not intended to be limiting.

[0048] The following is combined with Figure 1-10 The principles of the present invention are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0049] The present invention proposes a vibration test device connection structure, comprising a base plate 1, a test piece fixing frame 2 mounted on the base plate 1, and a plurality of fixing components arranged on the periphery of the test piece fixing frame 2;

[0050] The test piece fixing frame 2 is provided with a connecting seat 21, and the top of the connecting seat 21 is provided with an inclined surface 211;

[0051] A window 22 is provided in the middle of the inclined surface 211, and mounting holes for fixing the controller are provided on the side strips around the window 22;

[0052] Two first wire grooves 23 are provided on the side of the test piece fixing frame 2;

[0053] A coolant pipe fixing assembly 3 is provided on the periphery of one side of the bottom edge of the inclined surface 211 , a first wire harness fixing assembly 4 is provided on the periphery of one inclined side, and a second wire harness fixing assembly 5 is provided on the periphery of the other inclined side.

[0054] This connection structure can simultaneously tilt and fix two or more controllers for testing, so as to improve test efficiency and reduce test costs; the fixing components for fixing external pipes are optimized to prevent external high-voltage wiring harnesses, low-voltage wiring harnesses, coolant pipes, PDU wiring harnesses, three-phase wiring harnesses, etc. from affecting the test or being damaged during the load endurance test.

[0055] The test piece fixture 2, coolant pipe fixture assembly 3, first wiring harness fixture assembly 4, and second wiring harness fixture assembly 5 are connected to the base plate 1 by welding and screwing. Welding is more effective for vibration testing, while screwing is less effective. However, screwing allows for disassembly, facilitating installation and repair. A combination of screwing and welding can also be used, where the above components are first screwed to the base plate 1 and then welded. This method is more convenient to install and has higher connection strength.

[0056] The controller 100 tested in this embodiment has a shell composed of an upper cover 110 and a lower cover 120 fixed by screws. The outside of the upper cover 110 is installed with a high-voltage two-pole plug-in 130, a PDU plug-in 140 and a low-voltage plug-in 150, and the outside of the lower cover 120 is installed with a resin terminal block 160, as well as the water inlet and outlet of the circulating cooling system.

[0057] During vehicle installation, the high-voltage bipolar connector 130 connects to the vehicle's charging port via a high-voltage wiring harness. The low-voltage connector 150 connects to the vehicle's low-voltage electrical equipment via a low-voltage wiring harness. The PDU connector 140 connects to the vehicle's electric air-conditioning compressor's wiring port via a PUD wiring harness. The resin terminal block 160 is a plastic-coated assembly containing six copper busbars. Three of these are connected to the generator's three-phase output terminal via a three-phase wiring harness, and the remaining three are connected to the motor's three-phase output terminal via a three-phase wiring harness. The high-voltage wiring harness is 50mm², while the entire low-voltage wiring harness consists of 40-50 thin wires with a diameter of 1.5mm. The PUD wiring harness consists of two wires with a diameter of 10mm, and the three-phase wiring harness is 50mm². The connecting wiring harnesses of various components are large in diameter and high in rigidity. During vibration testing, the swing of the wiring harnesses of each component significantly affects the test results, so the wiring harnesses of each component need to be fixed to the vibration device.

[0058] When testing the controller, first fix the controller 100 on the inclined surface 211, then fix the external wires and tubes of the controller 100 on the fixed components, and then perform a base frequency sweep test and a power-on and load endurance test.

[0059] The sensor signal line for testing can pass through the two first wire grooves 23 into the test piece fixing frame 2 and then be connected to the controller at the window 22 .

[0060] In this embodiment, the first harness fixing assembly 4 is used to fix the high-voltage harness 46, the low-voltage harness 47, and the PDU harness 48. The main body of the first harness fixing assembly 4 is a plate-like structure fixedly mounted on the base plate 1. One side of the plate-like structure is provided with a first wire clamping arc hole 41, and the other side is provided with a second wire clamping arc hole 42.

[0061] The first wire harness fixing assembly 4 further includes a side clamping plate 44, and a third clamping arc hole 43 is formed on the side of the side clamping plate 44 to match the first clamping arc hole 41;

[0062] The plate-like structure is further provided with a plurality of flexible wire through holes 45 , which are located around the second wire clamping arc hole 42 .

[0063] The first wire clamping arc hole 41 and the third wire clamping arc hole 43 are used to clamp the high-voltage wire harness 46 connected to the test piece. One end of the high-voltage wire harness 46 is connected to the high-voltage two-pole plug-in 130, and the other end is clamped and fixed to one side of the first wire harness fixing assembly 4 through the side wire clamping plate 44;

[0064] Two second wire clamping arc holes 42 are provided on the plate-like structure, one of which is used to bind and fix the low-voltage wire harness 47 connected to the test piece, and the other is used to bind and fix the PDU wire harness 48 connected to the test piece; one end of the low-voltage wire harness 47 is connected to the low-voltage plug-in 150, and the other end is fixed to the other side of the first wire harness fixing component 4 with a soft rope through the soft wire through-hole 45; one end of the PDU wire harness 48 is connected to the PDU plug-in 140, and the other end is fixed to the same side as the low-voltage wire harness 47 with a soft rope through the soft wire through-hole 45.

[0065] In order to improve the strength of the first wire harness fixing assembly 4 , reinforcement plates 49 are welded on both sides of the plate-like structure in the thickness direction, and the bottom of the reinforcement plate 49 is fixed on the bottom plate 1 .

[0066] In this embodiment, the second harness fixing assembly 5 is used to fix the three-phase harness. When the vehicle is assembled, one end of the three-phase harness is connected to the resin terminal block 160 of the controller, and the other end is connected to the vehicle drive motor and generator.

[0067] The three-phase wiring harness 53 is pre-installed on the second wiring harness fixing assembly 5. Since the controller 100 is fixed at an angle on the inclined surface 211, in order to facilitate the docking of the three-phase wiring harness with the resin terminal block 160 and avoid interference of the wiring harness with the test during the vibration test, the top of the second wiring harness fixing assembly 5 is tilted, and its inclination angle is parallel to the inclined surface 211.

[0068] The second wiring harness fixing assembly 5 includes a wiring strip seat 51, a wiring fixing plate 52, a three-phase wiring harness 53 and a copper busbar 54;

[0069] A second wire groove 24 extending parallel to the inclined surface 211 is formed on the side of the test piece holder 2. The terminal block 51 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the test piece holder 2 along the second wire groove 24.

[0070] The cable fixing plate 52 is fixedly mounted on the base plate 1 and has a slope 521 on its top that is parallel to the inclined surface 211. A cable clamping plate 522 is mounted on the slope 521 to clamp and secure the three-phase wiring harness 53. The bottom of the cable clamping plate 522 has a row of upper semi-arc holes 5221, and the slope 521 has lower semi-arc holes 5211 that match the upper semi-arc holes 5221.

[0071] One end of the three-phase wiring harness 53 is clamped and secured by a cable retaining plate 52 to prevent swinging during vibration testing and potentially affecting the test results. The other end of the three-phase wiring harness 53 is secured to the terminal block 51 via screws. The terminal block 51 is inlaid with a straight knurled copper sleeve 511 or a straight knurled steel sleeve to enhance contact strength and facilitate the securing of the copper busbar 54. One end of the copper busbar 54 passes through the second wire channel 24 and connects to the resin terminal block 160. The other end is connected to the three-phase wiring harness 53 via a straight knurled copper sleeve 511. The straight knurling facilitates machining and prevents rotation when the screws are tightened.

[0072] In this embodiment, the coolant pipe fixing assembly 3 includes a fixing plate 31, and a liquid inlet pipe 32 and a liquid outlet pipe 33 fixed on the top of the fixing plate 31;

[0073] The fixing plate 31 is located at the periphery of the bottom edge of the inclined surface 211, and its bottom is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 1;

[0074] The extension direction of the liquid inlet pipe 32 and the liquid outlet pipe 33 is parallel to the inclined surface 211. The liquid inlet pipe 32 is connected to the water inlet of the controller 100, and the liquid outlet pipe 33 is connected to the water outlet of the controller 100. During the load test, coolant is pumped to the controller through the liquid inlet pipe 32 to simulate the real working conditions and help the controller cool down.

[0075] In this embodiment, the test piece holder 2 can simultaneously hold two controllers. It has two connecting sockets 21, symmetrically arranged on either side of the holder. Each connecting socket 21 is equipped with a coolant pipe fixing assembly 3, a first wiring harness fixing assembly 4, and a second wiring harness fixing assembly 5.

[0076] In this embodiment, the test piece holder 2 can hold more than two controllers, enabling simultaneous testing of multiple controllers. The test piece holder 2 is equipped with multiple connectors 21, which are evenly distributed in a circular pattern around the periphery of the test piece holder 2. Each connector 21 is equipped with a coolant pipe fixing assembly 3, a first wiring harness fixing assembly 4, and a second wiring harness fixing assembly 5.
