[0021] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, example embodiments can be implemented in a variety of forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention will be comprehensive and complete and fully convey the concepts of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the figures represent the same or similar structures, and thus their detailed description will be omitted.

[0022] The terms "a", "an", "the", and "said" are used to indicate the presence of one or more elements / components / etc.; the terms "comprising" and "having" are used to express an open-ended inclusive meaning and mean that additional elements / components / etc. may be present in addition to the listed elements / components / etc.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 A front view of a pedal rubber sleeve wear resistance testing device provided by the present invention is shown.

[0024] The pedal rubber sleeve wear resistance test device of the embodiment of the present invention includes a pedal assembly 2 connected to a test bench 1 to connect the pedal rubber sleeve 5 to the test bench 1; the friction assembly 3 includes a rocker arm 31, an L-shaped plate 32, a spring 33 and a sole model block 34, the rocker arm 31 is rotatably connected to the test bench 1, the L-shaped plate 32 is height-adjustably connected to the rocker arm 31, and the sole model block 34 is connected to the L-shaped plate 32 through a spring 33 to adjust the pressure of the sole model block 34 on the pedal rubber sleeve 5 through the height of the L-shaped plate 32; the driving assembly 4 is connected to the rocker arm 31 to drive the sole model block 34 to perform reciprocating friction on the pedal rubber sleeve 5.

[0025] Among them, the pedal body 21 is arranged on one side of the test bench 1, the pedal rubber sleeve 5 is sleeved on the top of the pedal body 21, the swing rod 31 is arranged on the right side of the pedal body 21, and the sole model block 34 is connected to the swing rod 31 through the spring 33 and the L-shaped plate 32. The bottom surface pattern of the sole model block 34 simulates the sole, which is closer to the human foot to operate the car pedal. When the sole model block 34 abuts against the pedal rubber sleeve 5, the pressure of the sole model block 34 on the pedal rubber sleeve 5 can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the connection point between the L-shaped plate 32 and the swing rod 31. There is a friction coefficient, so that the friction force of the sole model block 34 on the pedal rubber sleeve 5 can be adjusted. The driving component 4 is connected to the rocker arm 31. When the rocker arm 31 is rotated and connected to the test bench 1, the driving component 4 pushes the rocker arm 31 to swing back and forth, which can drive the L-shaped block and the sole model block 34 to move back and forth, thereby causing the sole model block 34 to generate friction loss on the pedal rubber sleeve 5. After the sole model block 34 reciprocates a preset number of times, the wear resistance test is completed, the pedal rubber sleeve 5 is removed, and the thickness of the pedal rubber sleeve 5 at the worn position is measured to confirm whether the wear amount meets the requirements.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the driving assembly 4 includes a cylinder 41 and a U-shaped block 42, the rocker arm 31 passes through the open end of the U-shaped block 42 and is rotationally connected to the U-shaped block 42, the closed end of the U-shaped block 42 is connected to the cylinder rod of the cylinder 41, and the cylinder body of the cylinder 41 is connected to the test bench 1.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the open end of the U-shaped block 42 is a U-shaped opening. After the rocker arm 31 passes through the U-shaped opening, it is rotationally connected to the U-shaped block 42 through a pin shaft. Due to the U-shaped opening of the U-shaped block 42, interference with the drive component 4 can be avoided when the rocker arm 31 swings back and forth.

[0028] Preferably, the air cylinder 41 is controlled by a PLC control system, and the frequency at which the drive assembly 4 drives the sole model block 34 to reciprocate can be adjusted.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the driving assembly 4 further includes a first position sensor 43 and a second position sensor 44 disposed on the cylinder body to control the telescopic length of the cylinder rod.

[0030] like Figure 1As shown, the first position sensor 43 is arranged at the front end of the cylinder body, and the second position sensor 44 is arranged at the rear end of the cylinder body. The first position sensor 43 and the second position sensor 44 are arranged at corresponding positions, for example, the distance between the first position sensor 43 and the second position sensor 44 is set. When the rear end of the cylinder rod reaches the second position sensor 44, it is the maximum amplitude of the swing arm 31 swinging backward, that is, the rearmost end of the displacement of the sole model block 34. When the rear end of the cylinder rod reaches the first position sensor 43, it is the maximum amplitude of the swing arm 31 swinging forward, that is, the frontmost end of the displacement of the sole model block 34. The worn length of the pedal rubber sleeve 5 can be controlled. Combined with the elasticity of the pedal rubber sleeve 5, the worn width of the pedal rubber sleeve 5 can be determined by the pressure applied by the sole model block 34 to the pedal rubber sleeve 5 and the deformation of the pedal rubber sleeve 5. The combination of the two can control the worn area of ​​the pedal rubber sleeve 5.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the driving assembly 4 further comprises a first bracket 45 connected to the test bench 1 , and the driving assembly 4 is rotatably connected to an end of the first bracket 45 away from the test bench 1 .

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, a U-shaped opening is provided at the upper end of the first bracket 45, and the cylinder body of the cylinder 41 or the first force sensor 46 can be set in the U-shaped opening through a single earring seat and rotatably connected to the first bracket 45 through a pin shaft. The bottom of the first bracket 45 has an overlapping part with the test bench 1, and the first bracket 45 and the test bench 1 are fixed by bolts at the corresponding positions of the overlapping parts of the two, so that the cylinder 41 or the second force sensor 35 can be conveniently rotatably connected to the test bench 1.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the driving assembly 4 further includes a first force sensor 46 , which is disposed between the cylinder body and the first bracket 45 to detect the loading force of the driving assembly 4 on the sole mold block 34 .

[0034] like Figure 1As shown, the front end of the first force sensor 46 is fixed to the bottom of the cylinder body of the cylinder 41, and the rear end of the first force sensor 46 is connected to the test bench 1 through the first bracket 45. Preferably, the test bench 1 also includes a single earring seat, which is arranged in the U-shaped opening of the first bracket 45 and is rotatably connected to the first bracket 45 through a pin shaft, so that when the driving component 4 applies a load force to the sole model block 34, no interference will occur even if a change in direction occurs. In the use of the car, when the direction of the pedal force is not perpendicular to the pedal rubber sleeve 5, the pedal force forms a component force in the direction of the friction force on the pedal rubber sleeve 5 that is opposite to the direction of the friction force. By setting the first force sensor 46, the magnitude of the component force in the direction of the friction force can be adjusted according to the measured value of the first force sensor 46, and then adjusted together with the gravity component to more finely simulate the magnitude of the pedal force in actual use.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the friction assembly 3 also includes a second force sensor 35 connected between the spring 33 and the sole model block 34 , and the sole model block 34 obtains the pressure value of the sole model block 34 on the pedal rubber sleeve 5 through the second force sensor 35 .

The side wall of the L-shaped plate 32 has an overlapping portion with the rocker arm 31. The side wall of the L-shaped plate 32 is connected to the rocker arm 31 by bolts at the corresponding position of the overlapping portion. The rocker arm 31 may be provided with a plurality of bolt holes at equal intervals along its height direction. The bolt passes through the side wall of the L-shaped plate 32 and one of the bolt holes, so as to adjust the height of the L-shaped plate 32, thereby adjusting the initial loading force value of the control pedal rubber sleeve 5.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the friction assembly 3 further includes a guide rod 36 , which passes through the L-shaped plate 32 and the spring 33 in sequence and is connected to the sole mold block 34 .

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, a hole is opened on the bottom wall of the L-shaped plate 32, and the guide rod 36 passes through the hole to be connected to the sole model block 34. The spring 33 is sleeved on the guide rod 36, and the upper end of the spring 33 is fixed to the bottom wall of the L-shaped plate 32, and the lower end of the spring 33 is fixed to the sole model block 34. The guide rod 36 passes through the spring 33, so that the deformation of the spring 33 is always in a straight line. When the height of the pedal rubber sleeve 5 remains unchanged, by setting the height of the L-shaped plate 32 on the rocker arm 31, the compression distance of the spring 33 can be set, so that the friction force of the sole model block 34 on the pedal rubber sleeve 5 is set to remain unchanged, thereby improving the accuracy of the test data.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the friction assembly 3 further includes a limit frame 37 and a limit rod 38. The limit frame 37 is connected to the L-shaped plate 32 and has a long hole in the vertical direction. The limit rod 38 is connected to the sole mold block 34 and is arranged in the long hole.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the top of the limit frame 37 is fixed to the bottom wall of the L-shaped plate 32 by bolts, the guide rod 36 passes through the bottom wall of the L-shaped plate 32 and is arranged in the cavity structure surrounded by the limit frame 37, the bottom end of the guide rod 36 is connected to the sole model block 34, the limit rod 38 is fixed to the sole model block 34 by bolts or other methods, the width of the long hole is matched with the width or diameter of the limit rod 38 to limit the displacement of the sole model block 34 in the left and right direction, and prevent the sole model block 34 from shaking left and right during the test.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the swing rod 31 includes a second bracket 311 and a swing rod body 312 rotatably connected to the second bracket 311 , and one end of the second bracket 311 away from the swing rod body 312 is connected to the test bench 1 .

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, a U-shaped opening is provided at the top of the second bracket 311, and the lower end of the rocker arm 31 is provided in the U-shaped opening and is rotatably connected to the top of the second bracket 311 via a pin shaft. The second bracket 311 and the test bench 1 have an overlapping portion, and the second bracket 311 and the test bench 1 are fixed by bolts at corresponding positions of the overlapping portions, so that the rocker arm 31 can be rotatably connected to the test bench 1 more conveniently.

[0043] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pedal assembly 2 includes a pedal body 21 and a third bracket 22 connected to the pedal body 21 , and one end of the third bracket 22 away from the pedal body 21 is connected to the test bench 1 .

[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, the third bracket 22 is arranged on the left side of the second bracket 311, and a U-shaped opening is arranged on the top of the third bracket 22. The bottom of the pedal body 21 is clamped between the U-shaped opening and is fixed by two or more bolts to prevent the pedal body 21 and the third bracket 22 from rotating relative to each other. The bottom of the third bracket 22 has an overlapping part with the test bench 1, and the third bracket 22 and the test bench 1 are fixed by bolts at the corresponding position of the overlapping part, so that the pedal body 21 is fixed to the test bench 1. By adding the third bracket 22, the position of the pedal rubber sleeve 5 is easier to adjust.

[0045] When the height of the pedal assembly 2 of the pedal rubber sleeve wear resistance test device of the present invention remains unchanged, the compression amount of the spring 33 is adjusted by adjusting the relative position of the L-shaped plate 32 and the rocker arm 31, thereby adjusting the magnitude of the friction loading force value on the pedal rubber sleeve 5, so that the friction area of ​​the pedal rubber sleeve 5 is controllable; the sole model block 34 adopts the sole shape, which can simulate the wear of the pedal rubber sleeve 5 when a person's foot presses the pedal to the greatest extent; the movement stroke of the cylinder 41 can be limited by the first position sensor 43 and the second position sensor 44, thereby adjusting the friction stroke of the pedal rubber sleeve 5; when the cylinder 41 is electrically connected to the PLC control system, the test frequency can be adjusted, and there is no human intervention in the entire test process, and operation and detection can be performed under high and low temperature test environments.
