At present, the performance testing technology of door locks has become an important link in improving the overall safety of automobiles. Its development not only improves the testing efficiency but also provides a reliable guarantee for the quality control of the automotive manufacturing industry.

[0003] To meet the requirements of door lock performance testing, the industry usually adopts two traditional methods: manual inspection and simple mechanical testing. Manual inspection is mainly completed by manual operation, including visual inspection and simple function verification; simple mechanical testing is carried out by a fixed device to simulate specific working conditions for testing. In recent years, a variety of automated testing devices have emerged on the market.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 - Figure 2 A vehicle door lock test device includes a body shell 1, an appearance detection mechanism 2, a signal detection mechanism 3 and a transfer shaft mechanism 4, wherein the appearance detection mechanism 2, the signal detection mechanism 3 and the transfer shaft mechanism 4 are all arranged in the body shell 1. By integrating each mechanism in the body shell 1, each mechanism component can be effectively protected, while ensuring the convenience and safety of operation during the detection process, thereby achieving the effect of improving the detection efficiency and accuracy.

[0029] Reference Figure 3 - Figure 5 The signal detection mechanism 3 includes a lifting and positioning component 31, a first toggle component 32, a second toggle component 33, a first rotation drive component 34, a second rotation drive component 35 and a column thrust detection component 36.

[0030] Specifically, the lifting and positioning assembly 31 is used to drive the entire signal detection mechanism 3 to lift and position to a specified height position, and specifically includes a mounting frame 311, a positioning guide rail 312, a positioning guide block 313, and a positioning driver 314. The positioning driver 314 can use a linear motor or a servo motor to drive the positioning guide block 313 to slide linearly along the positioning guide rail 312 to ensure the accuracy and stability of the lifting and positioning. The mounting platform 315 is set on the positioning guide block 313 to carry other components to achieve synchronous lifting.

[0031] The first toggle assembly 32 includes a first cylinder 321 fixedly mounted on the mounting platform 315, and the output end of the first cylinder 321 is connected to a first sliding block 322. When the vehicle door lock is tested, the first cylinder 321 drives the first sliding block 322 to move, and the toggle operation of the full-lock shrapnel micro switch of the vehicle door lock housing is realized by accurately controlling the stroke and force of the first sliding block 322, thereby making the full-lock shrapnel micro switch in a circuit or open state, which is convenient for subsequent testing of its electrical performance.

[0032] The second toggle assembly 33 is composed of a second cylinder 331 and a second sliding block 332. The second cylinder 331 is fixed on the mounting platform 315, and the second sliding block 332 at its output end can accurately toggle the half-lock micro switch of the vehicle door lock housing under the drive of the second cylinder 331, so that it switches between the passage state and the open state, providing conditions for the performance detection of the half-lock micro switch.

[0033] The first rotation drive assembly 34 includes a first bearing seat 341, a first rotating shaft 342, a first motor 343, a first shift block 344, a first sensor 345 and a first sensor sheet 346. The first bearing seat 341 is mounted on the mounting platform 315 to provide a stable support and rotation base for the first rotating shaft 342. The first motor 343 is used as a power source and is connected to the first rotating shaft 342 in a transmission manner. When the first motor 343 is started, the first rotating shaft 342 and the first shift block 344 thereon are driven to rotate. During the rotation process, the first shift block 344 will accurately shift the child lock micro switch of the vehicle door lock housing to switch its state. The first sensor sheet 346 is fixed on the first rotating shaft 342 and rotates with the first rotating shaft 342. The first sensor 345 is mounted on the mounting platform 315, and its position corresponds to the first sensor sheet 346. When the first rotating shaft 342 rotates, the first sensing sheet 346 passes through the first sensor 345, and the first sensor 345 can sense the position change of the first sensing sheet 346. Through this sensing mechanism, the rotation angle and rotation position of the first rotating shaft 342 can be accurately monitored, so as to achieve precise control of the action of the first shifting block 344 to shift the child lock micro switch, ensure the consistency and accuracy of each shifting operation, and improve the reliability of the detection result.

[0034] The working principle of the second rotation drive assembly 35 is similar to that of the first rotation drive assembly 34. It includes a second bearing block 351, a second rotating shaft 352, a second motor 353, a second shifting block 354, a second inductor 355, and a second induction piece 356. The second bearing block 351 is installed on the installation platform 315 to provide support for the second rotating shaft 352. The second motor 353 drives the second rotating shaft 352 and the second shifting block 354 thereon to rotate. The second shifting block 354 is used to toggle the central locking micro switch of the vehicle door lock housing. The second inductor 355 and the second induction piece 356 work together. The second induction piece 356 is fixed on the second rotating shaft 352, and the second inductor 355 is installed at a position on the installation platform 315 opposite to the second induction piece 356. During the rotation of the second rotating shaft 352, the second inductor 355 precisely monitors the rotation state of the second rotating shaft 352 by sensing the position change of the second induction piece 356, realizing precise control of the action of the second shifting block 354 toggling the central locking micro switch, and ensuring the accuracy and stability of detection.

[0035] The column thrust detection assembly 36 includes a proportional valve 361 and a pushing block 362. The proportional valve 361 outputs a preset thrust to push the column of the vehicle door lock housing, and a sensor is combined to detect whether the column is broken. If it is broken, an alarm is triggered. The pressure output device can also be realized by a hydraulic cylinder to ensure the accuracy and controllability of thrust output.

[0036] Refer to Figure 6 , the appearance detection mechanism 2 includes an industrial camera and an image processing unit. The industrial camera uses a high-resolution camera, which can precisely collect images of the micro switch elastic sheet of the vehicle door lock housing, such as a CCD or CMOS type camera. The image processing unit processes the collected images through image algorithms to obtain the angle value and size value of the micro switch elastic sheet, and compares them with the preset standard values to judge whether they are qualified. The image processing unit can be realized by a digital signal processor or an embedded computing module to ensure the image processing speed and accuracy.

[0037] Refer to Figure 7 , the transfer shaft mechanism 4 includes a transfer shaft module 41, an installation base 42, and a positioning sensor (43). The transfer shaft module 41 can adopt a ball screw or a linear guide system to drive the installation base 42 to move. The installation base 42 is used to install the vehicle door lock housing, and a sensor cooperating with the positioning sensor 43 is arranged thereon. The transfer shaft module 41 drives the product to pass through the manual loading and unloading position, the signal detection position, and the camera appearance detection position in sequence to ensure the smooth progress of the detection process.

[0038] The implementation principle of this embodiment is: by integrating the appearance detection mechanism 2, the signal detection mechanism 3 and the transfer shaft mechanism 4 into the body shell 1, a full range of performance detection of the vehicle door lock shell is achieved. The appearance detection mechanism 2 uses an industrial camera and an image processing unit to accurately detect the angle value and size value of the micro switch spring. The signal detection mechanism 3 simulates different working conditions through a variety of toggle components and rotary drive components to verify the safety of the shell switch performance. The transfer shaft mechanism 4 is responsible for driving the product to complete each detection process. This integrated design not only improves the detection efficiency, but also ensures the consistency and accuracy of the detection results, providing strong support for quality control in the automobile manufacturing industry.

[0039] Embodiment 2: This embodiment is different from the above embodiment in that the structural design of the signal detection mechanism 3 is further optimized. Specifically, a buffer 316 is added to the lifting and positioning assembly 31 to play a buffering and shock absorbing role during the lifting and lowering process of the installation platform 315 to prevent damage to the components caused by hard collision. The buffer 316 can be implemented by a spring shock absorber or an airbag shock absorber to ensure the buffering effect without affecting the lifting accuracy.

[0040] In addition, a pressure roller 317 and an elastic component 318 are added to the mounting platform 315 to fix the vehicle door lock housing. The end of the pressure roller 317 away from the mounting platform 315 is connected to the elastic component 318, such as a spring or a rubber pad, so that the pressure roller 317 can automatically adjust the pressure according to the shape of the housing to ensure that it is firmly fixed without damaging the housing surface.

[0041] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: by adding the buffer 316 and the pressure roller 317 structure, the stability and reliability of the signal detection mechanism 3 are further improved. The buffer 316 effectively reduces the impact force during the lifting and lowering of the mounting platform 315, protecting the components from damage; the pressure roller 317 and the elastic component 318 ensure that the housing is firmly fixed to avoid displacement or damage during the detection process.
