Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automobile measurement, and in particular to a device and method for measuring ground contact parameters of a wheeled vehicle. Background Art

[0002] Ground contact area and ground contact pressure are important design parameters for wheeled vehicles. Taking wheeled off-road vehicles as an example, the ground contact pressure value determines the road conditions that the vehicle can pass. In existing testing methods, the ground contact area and ground contact pressure of wheeled vehicles mainly rely on weighing each wheel first, and then returning to the measuring room to measure the tire ground contact area. The tire ground contact area is measured by using a jack to lift each wheel of the vehicle, paint it, place coordinate paper under the tire, and then drop the tire to obtain the tire mark. Vehicles with air suspension have higher tire travel, so the requirements for the jack are more stringent. At the same time, during the tire falling process, the tire surface cannot be perpendicular to the coordinate paper, resulting in the measured tire mark area being smaller than the actual tire ground contact area, and the measurement result has large errors. The ground contact area of ​​each tire needs to be measured separately, and the repeated operation makes the measurement time-consuming and inefficient.

[0003] Therefore, in order to meet practical needs, a wheeled vehicle ground contact parameter measurement device is provided. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In response to the defects existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a wheeled vehicle ground contact parameter measurement device and method, which measures the wheel ground contact parameters based on a specific terrain structure in combination with multiple pressure sensors, effectively ensuring the reliability of the measurement results while improving the measurement efficiency.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0006] In a first aspect, the present application provides a wheeled vehicle ground contact parameter measurement device, the device comprising:

[0007] a pair of wheel detection structures arranged side by side, each wheel detection structure comprising a measuring platform and two recessed areas spaced apart from each other on the measuring platform;

[0008] A plurality of pressure sensors are arranged in the recessed area;

[0009] The bottom surface of the pressure sensor is connected to the top surface of the recessed area via a micro spring. A raised micro travel switch is provided around the center of the area of ​​the micro spring on the bottom surface of the pressure sensor. The pressure sensor is electrically connected to the corresponding raised micro travel switch.

[0010] The data analysis component is connected to the pressure sensor and the raised micro-motion travel switch signal, and is used to calculate the single wheel contact area and single wheel contact pressure corresponding to each wheel of the vehicle to be tested.

[0011] It should be noted that when a vehicle drives onto the wheeled vehicle ground contact parameter measuring device, both the left and right wheels enter the corresponding recessed areas;

[0012] The wheel presses the pressure sensor, the inching spring contracts, and the space below the raised inching travel switch is gradually squeezed. Eventually, the lower end of the raised inching travel switch is touched, or even in close contact with the surface of the recessed area, and is turned on and enters the on state. At this time, the data analysis component can receive the on signal of the raised inching travel switch and the monitoring data of the pressure sensor.

[0020] More specifically, when the pressure sensors are fully squeezed, they are in close contact with the surface of the recessed area, that is, the number and arrangement of the pressure sensors completely fit the contour and size of the surface of the recessed area.

[0021] On the basis of the above technical solution, a group of symmetrical sides of the measurement platform are provided with an ascending slope and a descending slope.

[0022] On the basis of the above technical solution, a pair of the wheel detection structures are slidably arranged side by side on the sliding guide rail.

[0023] On the basis of the above technical solution, a pair of the wheel detection structures are slidably arranged side by side on a plurality of sliding guide rails arranged side by side;

[0027] A pair of wheel detection structures are slidable and can be adjusted at any time according to the different wheel spacings of the vehicles. After the spacing is determined, they are fixed by a locking pin structure.

[0028] On the basis of the above technical solution, the device is equipped with a single wheel contact area calculation formula, which is:
