Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of circuit signal detection, and in particular, to a circuit signal detection device and method for construction machinery. Background Art

[0002] Signals in electronic circuits are all electrical signals. An electrical signal refers to a voltage or current that changes over time, and information is transmitted, exchanged, stored, retrieved, etc. through electrical signals. The forms of electrical signals are diverse and can be classified from different perspectives. In electronic circuits, signals are divided into analog signals and digital signals.

[0003] Currently, when detecting the circuit signals of construction machinery equipment, it is generally detected by a multimeter. The multimeter can only measure voltage, resistance, and current, and the fault troubleshooting method is single. Since the circuit signals of construction machinery equipment are generated by various proportional pumps, solenoid valves, sensors, and relays, when diagnosing faults through a multimeter, it is not conducive to quickly determining the fault point, especially the electromechanical connection fault, which relatively reduces the detection efficiency and increases the work intensity of maintenance personnel. Therefore, we propose a circuit signal detection device and method for construction machinery to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention discloses a circuit signal detection device and method for construction machinery to solve any of the above and other potential problems in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A circuit signal detection device for construction machinery includes: a CPU central processing unit, a test function selection switch, a transformer, a lithium battery, a voltage adjustment switch, a current adjustment switch, a signal detection device control board, an adjustable power supply control board, a relay test switch, a relay detection socket, a backlight switch, a display screen, a proportional valve test interface, a solenoid valve, a sensor test interface, a lithium battery charging port, a placement container (for fixing the above various accessories), a yellow normally open indicator light, and a red normally closed indicator light.

[0007] The CPU central processing unit is fixed at the exact center inside the placement container, directly connected to the display screen, close to the display screen at the upper middle side of the front of the housing, and close to the inner side of the front panel of the housing; the detection function selection switch is fixed outside the placement container, at the lower left side of the front of the housing; the transformer is fixed at the upper middle side inside the placement container, covering the upper half of the CPU central processing unit when viewed from the back of the detection device; the adjustable power control board is directly connected to the voltage / current regulation switch and is close to the voltage / current regulation switch at the outer top of the placement container; the lithium battery is fixed at the inner bottom of the placement container; the voltage regulation switch is fixed at the outer top of the placement container, biased to the left; the current regulation switch is fixed at the outer top of the placement container, biased to the right; the signal detection device control board is fixed at the exact center inside the placement container, covering the lower half of the CPU central processing unit when viewed from the back of the detection device; the relay test switch is fixed outside the placement container, at the middle left side of the front of the housing; the display screen is fixed outside the placement container, at the upper middle side of the front of the housing; the test interface is fixed outside the placement container, at the lower middle part of the right side of the housing; the external switches and jacks are designed considering the installation position of the internal circuit board, as well as factors such as waterproofing and convenient operation.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the engineering machinery signal detection device described in the present invention, the detection device control board is connected to components such as the adjustable power control board and the test function selection switch, and provides a 0 - 5 - 24V voltage output to the solenoid valve and the sensor test interface.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the engineering machinery signal detection device described in the present invention, the detection device control board conveys the acquired detection parameters to the CPU central processing unit. After performing a function operation on the parameters obtained from the detection device control board, the CPU central processing unit transfers the parameters to the display screen to display the detection data.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the engineering machinery signal detection device described in the present invention, the CPU central processing unit provides an effective current of 0 - 0.82A to the proportional valve test interface to adjust the proportional pump to achieve changes in the proportional fan speed and the need for speed measurement, and at the same time, the current value is displayed in real time on the display screen.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the engineering machinery signal detection device described in the present invention, after inserting a relay into the relay detection socket, the relay test switch is turned to the power-on end. When a normally open relay is detected normally, the yellow normally open indicator light lights up. When a normally closed relay is detected normally, the red normally open indicator light lights up.

[0012] An engineering machinery circuit signal detection method includes the following steps:

[0013] S1. When detecting the proportional valve: unplug the in-vehicle proportional valve plug. First, use the proportional valve test interface on the detection device to connect to the plug on the in-vehicle valve block body (not the circuit), and then start the device. Turn on the power switch of the detection device, turn the test function selection switch to the current measurement gear, and turn the current adjustment switch. When adjusted to 0 - 0.2A, the various types of fans controlled by the proportional valve are at the highest speed at this time; when in the range of 0.2 - 0.5A, the speed is in an adjustable state; when at 0.5 - 0.82A, it is at the lowest speed. This verifies the integrity of the mechanical / oil circuit.

[0014] S2. When detecting the solenoid valve: unplug the in-vehicle solenoid valve plug. First, use the red and black wire clips in the solenoid valve and sensor test interface on the detection device to connect to the positive and negative pins on the in-vehicle valve block body (not the circuit) respectively, and then turn on the vehicle ignition to the first gear for power on. Turn on the power switch of the detection device, turn the test function selection switch to the voltage / resistance measurement gear, and turn the voltage adjustment switch. When the voltage is adjusted from 0V to 14.5V and above (14.5 - 20.62V), the solenoid valve starts to work, enabling the oil / gas circuit to pass through the valve block or making corresponding mechanical actions. This verifies the integrity of the solenoid valve oil / gas circuit.

[0015] S3. When detecting the sensor: unplug the common in-vehicle three-pin sensor plug. First, use the red, yellow, and black wire clips in the solenoid valve and sensor test interface on the detection device to connect to the positive, signal, and negative pins on the sensor connection circuit (not the sensor) respectively, and then turn on the ignition to the first gear for power on, and check for new fault codes on the in-vehicle screen. Turn on the power switch of the detection device, turn the test function selection switch 2 to the voltage / resistance measurement gear, and turn the voltage adjustment switch. When the voltage is adjusted to any value within the effective transmission voltage range of 0.5 - 4.5V of the in-vehicle sensor, if the fault code on the in-vehicle screen can be automatically cleared, it can be determined that the sensor is normal.

[0016] S4. When detecting the relay: insert the relay to be tested into the relay test socket 11, turn on the power switch of the detection device, and toggle the relay test switch up and down. When detecting a normal relay, the normally open and normally closed contacts will act respectively, and the corresponding yellow normally open indicator light and red normally closed indicator light will also light up and remain on respectively.

[0017] 1. In the past, for the "three highs" problem, electricians always debated endlessly about whether there was a problem with the spiral coil of the proportional pump, the control circuit, or the hydraulic pump and the medium circulation. Now, by observing the corresponding speed of the fan through the simulated current value, if the speed is normal, it can be judged as a circuit fault.

[0018] 2. In the past, for the solenoid valve, the method of "finding a connection to power" for detection has become the past. Now, by connecting the tester, it can be immediately known whether the valve is normally open and closed. If there is an abnormal open and closed state, it means there is a fault with the valve.

[0019] 3. In the past, for "replacement", when there was a sensor failure, it was usually necessary to "remove and test one by one, touch and replace one by one". Now, by flexibly adjusting the feedback signal or the voltage to the ground, it is possible to confirm whether the vehicle alarm has been eliminated. If it can be eliminated, it means that the sensor is faulty.

[0020] 4. In the past, for "difficult to measure", when using a multimeter to measure a relay, the resistance values often did not differ much, but the actual functions were different. Now, by inserting the relay into the test socket and toggling the on-off switch up and down, and observing whether the normally open and normally closed indicator lights light up correspondingly and the sound of the relay's suction, it is possible to accurately and quickly determine the condition of the relay.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: By freely switching signal parameters within the vehicle range and actively creating analog values to be transmitted to the device controller, it is possible to efficiently solve the types of construction machinery circuit faults that were difficult to judge in the past, improve the efficiency of construction machinery circuit signal detection, effectively reduce the labor intensity of maintenance personnel, break the technical monopoly of manufacturers, and further improve work efficiency; its size is comparable to that of a multimeter, which is convenient for maintenance personnel to use outdoors and improves the convenience of use.
