[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0031] Example 1
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe internal temperature and humidity testing device, including a test box 10 with an inner cavity. The test box 10 includes a rectangular outer box 11 and an annular partition 12 located inside the outer box 11. The outer box 11 has circumferential sidewalls, a top plate connected to the upper end of the circumferential sidewalls, and a bottom plate connected to the lower end of the circumferential sidewalls. The circumferential sidewalls are sequentially connected to form a square front side plate, a left side plate, a rear side plate, and a right side plate. The bottom plate or top plate of the outer box 11 has a pick-up and put-out opening (not shown in the figure) communicating with the inner cavity, so as to put in or take out the shoe to be tested. Of course, if the pick-up and put-out opening is opened on the bottom plate, sufficient operating space needs to be left below the test box 10 during use. The specific formation of the operating space can be set according to the usage scenario, such as suspending the test box 10, or setting a hollow at the position corresponding to the pick-up and put-out opening on the support platform. In addition, a cover plate (not shown in the figure) is detachably connected to the loading and unloading port. The cover plate is preferably a transparent plate to facilitate observation of the test. The specific detachable connection structure of the cover plate can be a conventional structure, such as bolt connection or fastening, which will not be described in detail here. Of course, the front side wall can also be set as an openable side plate for loading and unloading shoes. In this case, the corresponding side plate on the partition 12 mentioned below also needs to be set as an openable side plate.
[0033] The ring partition plate 12 is uniformly provided with perforations, and the lower end of the ring partition plate 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate of the outer box body 11, and the upper end of the ring partition plate 12 is fixedly connected or abuts against the top plate of the outer box body 11, the space surrounded by the ring partition plate 12 forms an inner cavity, and the space between the circumferential side wall of the outer box body 11 and the ring partition plate 12 forms a separation cavity, and the separation cavity is provided with an environment adjusting device. Preferably, in the embodiment, the ring partition plate 12 is a square tubular partition plate, and each side plate of the square tubular partition plate is arranged one-to-one corresponding to each side plate of the circumferential side wall of the outer box body 11.
[0034] The inner cavity is provided with a temperature sensor (not shown in the figure) and a humidity sensor (not shown in the figure) as feedback of the environment adjusting device. The separation cavity is provided with a heater 20, a condenser 21, a humidifier 22 and a fan 23 (only the condenser 21, the humidifier 22 and the fan 23 on one side plate are shown in the figure) for pushing the air in the separation cavity to the inner cavity at a position corresponding to each side plate of the square tubular partition plate, the fan 23 is a fan that can adjust the size and direction of the wind directly purchased from the market, and all the heater 20, the condenser 21, the humidifier 22 and the fan 23 together constitute the above-mentioned environment adjusting device. In use, the corresponding heater 20, condenser 21 and humidifier 22 can be turned on according to actual test requirements, and one fan or more than two fans are used to send the air with adjusted temperature and humidity in the separation cavity to the inner cavity through the perforations on the ring partition plate 12, so as to provide the outside temperature and humidity environment for the tested shoes.
[0035] Preferably, in order to test the comfort of shoes in extreme environments, the embodiment further provides a spraying device, a water spraying device and / or a snow spraying device on the top wall of the inner cavity (i.e. the top plate of the outer box body 11), and the specific spraying device, water spraying device and snow spraying device can be directly purchased from the market, and are not the focus of the embodiment, which will not be described in detail here.
[0036] The upper portion of the inner cavity is provided with a fixed rod 30 fixedly arranged relative to the test box 10, a crank 31 rotatably connected to one end of the fixed rod 30, a rocker 32 rotatably connected to the other end of the fixed rod 30, and a connecting rod 33 rotatably connected to the crank 31 and the rocker 32 at both ends in a one-to-one manner. The fixed rod 30 is vertically arranged and can be directly fixedly connected to the ring partition plate 12 or fixedly connected to the test box 10 through a connecting frame. The fixed rod 30, the crank 31, the rocker 32, and the connecting rod 33 are located in the same vertical plane and collectively constitute a crank and rocker mechanism. When the crank 31 rotates, the rocker 32 can be driven to reciprocate in the vertical plane. The end of the crank 31 connected to the fixed rod 30 is drivingly connected to a variable frequency motor 34 for driving the crank 31 to rotate. The variable frequency motor 34 is a conventional motor which can be directly arranged in the inner cavity or arranged in the partition cavity. The former has a simple connection structure and low cost, and the latter can avoid the influence of the inner cavity environment on the variable frequency motor 34 and ensure the working stability of the variable frequency motor 34.
[0037] The rocker 32 is fixedly connected with a swing rod 35 or a swing frame (for example, the swing rod 35 is shown in the figure). The lower end of the swing rod 35 or the swing frame is detachably fixedly connected with a simulation foot 36. In this way, the simulation foot corresponding to the size of the shoe can be selected according to the test requirements. The specific detachable connection structure of the simulation foot 36 and the swing rod 35 or the swing frame can be a conventional structure, such as screw connection, clamp connection, or clamping. In this way, when the rocker 32 swings, the simulation foot 36 can be driven to swing through the swing rod 35 or the swing frame, simulating the state of walking or running of a person. In addition, if necessary, a road panel can be arranged below the simulation foot 36, so that the simulation foot 36 can rub against the road panel when it swings. This not only helps to improve the authenticity of the simulation, but also can test the wear resistance of the shoe at the same time.
[0038] The simulation foot 36 is provided with a cavity. The cavity is a closed cavity. A plurality of air holes are formed in the simulation foot 36 and communicate with the cavity. A plurality of temperature and humidity sensors (not shown in the figure) are arranged on the outer surface of the simulation foot 36. Each temperature and humidity sensor does not overlap with each air hole, that is, the temperature and humidity sensor does not cover the air hole. The temperature and humidity sensor is a conventional sensor which can be directly purchased from the market. The specific arrangement position of the temperature and humidity sensor on the simulation foot 36 can be arranged according to actual test requirements, which will not be described in detail here.
[0039] The heating component 37 and the humidifying component 38 are arranged in the cavity. Considering the limited space in the cavity, it is difficult to directly arrange the heater and the humidifier. In the embodiment, the heating component 37 is a hot air pipe with one end located in the cavity and the other end connected to any heating device in the partitioned cavity or extended to the outside of the box 11. The heating device is used to supply heat when needed. The humidifying component 38 is a humidifying pipe with one end connected to any water vapor supply device in the partitioned cavity or extended to the outside of the box 11. The water vapor supply device is used to supply water vapor when needed.
[0040] In use, the simulation foot 36 with a proper size is selected according to actual needs, the shoe to be tested is worn on the simulation foot 36, the heating amount of the heating component 37 and the water vapor supply amount of the humidifying component 38 are set according to actual needs, the temperature and humidity inside the simulation foot 36 are increased, and the heat and the water vapor are discharged through the air holes, so as to simulate the heat and the water vapor generated by the human foot. At the same time, the environment adjusting device is used to adjust the environment in the cavity. Then, the variable frequency motor 34 is started to perform the test. The rotation direction of the variable frequency motor 34 is 180-degree forward and reverse rotation, which is used to simulate the process of the leg landing, supporting, leaving the ground, folding and landing in the process of walking. In the test process, the single-sided film temperature and humidity sensor is used to detect the temperature and humidity on the surface of the simulation foot 36 in real time, and the temperature and humidity are transmitted to the computer through the data line or the wireless transmission module, so as to be analyzed by the shoe designer.
[0041] Embodiment Two
[0042] As shown in Figure 2 the embodiment, the difference between the embodiment and embodiment one is that the structure of the ring partition plate 12 and the environment adjusting device are different.
[0043] Specifically, in the embodiment, the ring partition plate 22 is a cylindrical partition plate, and the cylindrical partition plate is fixedly sleeved with a gear ring 40 and a slip ring (not shown in the figure). The slip ring is slidably connected with a sliding seat 41. The sliding seat 41 is provided with a heater (not shown in the figure), a condenser (not shown in the figure), a humidifier 22, a fan 23, a gear 42 engaged with the gear ring 40, and a rotary motor 43 used to drive the gear 42 to rotate. The heater, the condenser, the humidifier 22 and the fan 23 jointly constitute the environment adjusting device. The air outlet of the humidifier 22, the heater and the condenser are all located in front of the fan 23, so that the fan 23 can be used to take in and out the hot air or the cold air in the cavity. When in use, the rotary motor 43 can be used to drive the gear 42 to rotate around the gear ring 40, so as to change the wind direction.
[0044] The use mode of the shoe temperature and humidity test equipment provided by the embodiment is basically the same as that of embodiment one, which will not be repeated here.
[0045] The application has been described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the embodiments of the application are not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and various equivalent replacements can be made to the application by those skilled in the art according to the prior art, which all belong to the protection scope of the application.
