Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates specifically to the technical field of production of conductive rolling rings, in particular to a conductive rolling ring contact pin life friction test device. Background Art

[0002] As a key component in the rotary connection system, the core performance of the conductive roller ring depends on the stable, low-wear sliding electrical contact between the stylus and the conductive ring. In actual work, the stylus is subjected to long-term radial contact pressure and gradually wears out under high-speed rotation friction. Its life directly determines the overall reliability of the conductive roller ring. Therefore, the development of stylus life friction testing equipment that can accurately simulate actual working conditions is crucial for stylus material selection, structural design optimization and product quality control.

[0003] Existing friction testing equipment has the following drawbacks when used: there is a lack of an effective mechanism for continuous and precise adjustment of the radial pressure applied to the stylus, and it is impossible to conveniently set and maintain different target pressure values ​​for comparative tests, which limits the systematic study of the impact of different loads on the stylus life.

When the indenter is pressed downward, the conical surface transmits radial force to the pressure balls and outer cylinder, overcoming the resistance of the spring and pushing the friction plate radially inward, thereby applying radial pressure to the central stylus. The stroke of electric cylinder three precisely controls the depth of the indenter's depression, and thus precisely controls the radial pressure applied to the stylus, thereby realistically simulating the radial contact pressure experienced by the stylus in actual operation. Furthermore, this pressure value can be continuously and precisely set and controlled within a certain range, providing critical and repeatable load conditions for life testing.

[0042] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] The bottom plate 9 has a back plate 1 and two sets of symmetrical carrier plates 2 fixed on its surface;

[0045] Two slide bars 4 are provided and symmetrically connected between the two sets of carrier plates 2;

[0046] The wear testing mechanism 5 is slidably connected with the two slide bars 4, and the wear testing mechanism 5 is driven to slide by the electric cylinder 3 fixed to the back plate 1;

[0047] Specifically, the electric cylinder drives the entire wear test mechanism to move along the slide bar so that it can accurately align with the stylus currently located at the test position on the rotating disk.

[0048] The rotating disk 6 is rotatably mounted on the base plate 9 and is driven to rotate by a motor 8 mounted on the bottom surface of the base plate 9;

[0049] and sockets 7, which are provided in plurality and are mounted in a circumferential array on the top surface of the rotating disk 6, each socket 7 being provided with a clamping mechanism for clamping a contact pin;

[0050] Specifically, the multiple sockets in the circular array on the rotating disk can clamp multiple stylus pins to be tested at the same time. When the motor drives the rotating disk to rotate, different stylus pins can be sent to the test station in sequence and accurately, which greatly reduces the time for manual sample replacement, realizes unmanned continuous batch testing, and significantly improves test efficiency and data output.

[0051] In this embodiment, the wear testing mechanism 5 includes:

[0052] Slide 1 501 is matched and slidably connected to the two slide bars 4, and an electric cylinder 4 502 is installed on the slide 1 501;

[0053] The motor base is driven by the electric cylinder 4 502, and the motor 2 is installed in the motor base;

[0054] Upper cylinder 503, which is driven by motor 2;

[0055] and a lower cylinder 504, which is fixedly connected to the upper cylinder 503, wherein an adjustable friction mechanism is installed in the space formed by the combination of the upper cylinder 503 and the lower cylinder 504;

[0056] Specifically,.

[0057] In this embodiment, a plurality of slots are provided in a circumferential array on the side wall of the lower cylinder 504 .

[0058] In this embodiment, the adjustable friction mechanism includes:

[0059] Cylinder base 505, which is fixed in the upper cylinder 503;

[0060] The third electric cylinder 506 is mounted on the cylinder base 505 , and the driving end of the third electric cylinder 506 is connected to the pressure head 507 located below the cylinder base 505 ;

[0061] And there are multiple friction members, which are installed in a circular array on the inner wall of the upper cylinder 503, and the bottom of each friction member extends into the lower cylinder 504.

[0062] In this embodiment, the friction member includes:

[0063] The outer cylinder 512 has a sliding cavity therein, and a sliding ring 511 is slidingly arranged in the sliding cavity;

[0064] A pressure ball 513 fixed to the right end of the outer cylinder 512;

[0065] a friction plate 508 fixed to the bottom wall of the outer cylinder 512;

[0066] One end of the inner rod 509 is fixedly connected to the slip ring 511, and the other end of the inner rod 509 passes through the left port of the outer cylinder 512 and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the upper cylinder 503;

[0067] and a spring 510 connected between the sliding ring 511 and the left side wall of the sliding cavity, and the spring 510 is wound around the side wall of the inner rod 509;

[0068] Specifically, motor 2 drives the upper cylinder and the lower cylinder (including the entire friction mechanism) to rotate, while the stylus is kept stationary by the clamping mechanism, which simulates the relative motion state of the actual conductive rolling ring, where the stylus is fixed and the conductive ring rotates.

[0069] In this embodiment, the pressure head 507 adopts an inverted frustum structure, and the side wall of the pressure head 507 is set to a smooth surface;

[0070] Specifically, electric cylinder three drives the conical indenter to press down, and the smooth conical surface of the indenter acts on the pressure balls of multiple circumferentially distributed friction parts. When the indenter is pressed down, the conical surface transmits radial force to the pressure balls and the outer cylinder, overcoming the resistance of the spring and pushing the friction plate to move radially inward, thereby applying radial pressure to the central stylus. The stroke of electric cylinder three accurately controls the depth of the indenter's pressure, and then accurately controls the radial pressure (normal load) applied to the stylus, so as to truly simulate the radial contact pressure that the stylus is subjected to in actual work. Moreover, the pressure value can be continuously and accurately set and controlled within a certain range, providing critical and repeatable load conditions for life testing.

[0071] In this embodiment, the inner side wall of the friction plate 508 is set to an arc surface. The inner arc surface design of the friction plate can better fit the curved surface of the stylus, simulating the contact form between the stylus and the conductive ring / track in an actual conductive rolling ring.

[0072] In this embodiment, a wear scanning mechanism is further included, which is disposed in the long groove of the bottom plate 9 and is driven to move by the driving mechanism to scan and detect the surface of the stylus after the friction test.

[0073] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism includes:

[0074] Two fixing plates 12 are provided and fixed to the bottom surface of the bottom plate 9 at intervals;

[0075] a sliding column connected between the two fixing plates 12;

[0076] Slide 2 11 is matched and slidably connected to the slide column, and a wear scanning mechanism is fixed on the slide 2 11;

[0077] And the second electric cylinder 10, whose fixed end is fixed on the second slide 11, and the fixed end of the second electric cylinder 10 is fixedly connected to a fixed plate 12 located on the right side;

[0078] Specifically, quantitative detection of wear amount (such as wear mark width and depth) or surface morphology can be performed immediately during the test interval or after the test without removing the stylus, realizing the integration of testing and detection, improving data acquisition efficiency and accuracy, and facilitating real-time monitoring of the wear process.
