[0015] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0016] A dual EGR valve DC brush motor durability test control system, combined with Figure 1 As shown, it includes a test host 1, a main controller 2, an adjustable power supply 3 and a host computer 4. The test host 1 is used to test the DC motor, the main controller 2 is used to control the test of the DC motor, the adjustable power supply 3 is used to power the main controller, and the host computer 4 is used to set the working parameters so that the test host runs according to the set values. The input end of the adjustable power supply is connected to the 220V mains power, and the output end of the adjustable power supply is connected to the power input end of the main controller. The main controller 2 is electrically connected to the test host 1 and the host computer 4 respectively.

[0017] The test host 1 includes a base 11, on which a motor bracket seat 12 is provided. The motor bracket seat 12 has two grooves, which are used to place the first test motor 13 and the second test motor 14 respectively. A motor bracket bolt 15 is provided above the motor bracket seat 12 to fix the two test motors. The motor bracket bolt 15 is set on the motor bracket seat 12 through a motor bracket fixing bolt 16. The first test motor 13 and the second test motor 14 are electrically connected to the main controller 2 through the first test motor control interface 115 and the second test motor control interface 116 respectively. The control signal of the main controller is accessed through the test motor control interface, so that the test motor runs according to the desired duty cycle and direction.

[0018] A test stand main gear 17 is provided at the inner center of the motor support seat 12 via a main gear shaft 18. A first test motor gear 110 and a second test motor gear 111 are respectively engaged on either side of the test stand main gear 17. The first test motor gear 110 is connected to the motor shaft of the first test motor 13, and the second test motor gear 111 is connected to the motor shaft of the second test motor 14. A magnet 19 is provided at the outer center of the test stand main gear 17, and the magnet 19 rotates with the test stand main gear 17. A rotation angle sensor 112 is provided at the front end of the magnet 19 via a sensor bracket 114 for detecting the rotation angle and number of revolutions of the magnet 19. The rotation angle sensor 112 is electrically connected to the main controller 2 via a sensor interface 117 to provide power to the angle sensor and output sensor signals.

[0019] Angle sensor protective glue 113 is provided around the angle sensor 112 to protect the angle sensor 112 and ensure that no moisture enters the surface of the angle sensor 112 under high temperature, low temperature, high and low temperature conditions.

[0020] The main controller 2 includes a housing 21, on which a run button 22, an indicator light 23, a buzzer 24 and a display screen 25 are provided. The run button 22 is used to start the main controller. When the indicator light 23 detects that the test motor is working abnormally, the indicator light is on. The buzzer 24 rings when the indicator light is on, reminding the tester to handle it as soon as possible. The display screen 25 is used to display the current test status and fault information. The side end of the housing 21 is provided with a sensor connection interface 26, a test motor interface 27, a controller power interface 28 and a controller communication interface 29. The sensor connection interface 26 is connected to the sensor interface on the test host 1 to realize the power supply and signal input of one or more groups of sensors. The test motor interface 27 is respectively connected to the test motor interface on the test host 1 to realize the output of one or more groups of test motor control signals. The controller power interface 28 is connected to the adjustable power supply 3 to charge the main controller. The controller communication interface 29 is used to connect the host computer 4 to realize the communication connection between the main controller and the host computer. A controller is provided in the shell 21, the output end of the run button is connected to the input end of the controller, the output end of the controller is respectively connected to the input ends of the indicator light, the buzzer and the display screen, the controller is respectively electrically connected to the sensor interface, the test motor interface and the controller communication interface, and the controller power interface is connected to the power input end of the controller.

[0021] Adjustable power supply 3 controls the power supply to main controller 2, ensuring its proper operation. It controls the test motor according to the specified data and receives signals from the rotation angle sensor. Adjustable power supply 3 is a commercially available regulated power supply that adjusts its output voltage based on actual usage, providing a stable DC voltage for the main controller.

[0022] The host computer 4 is used to establish a communication connection with the main controller 2 and set working parameters to the main controller before working so that the test motor can run according to the set values.

[0023] When the present invention is testing, the main controller is connected to one or more test hosts through the test motor control interface and the sensor interface, the adjustable power supply supplies power to the main controller through the power interface of the main controller, and the host computer is connected to the main controller through the controller communication interface. During operation, the host computer sets relevant working parameters, for example, the first test motor and the second test motor are set with different duty cycles and directions, and switch alternately to ensure that the first test motor and the second test motor are running with load through the transmission of the main gear, which is closer to the actual usage; at the same time, the two motors can be tested at the same time, and the two motors can serve as loads for each other; in addition, the main controller can analyze the angle signal sent back by the motor duty cycle control and the angle sensor, and control the indicator light and the buzzer to work respectively according to whether the endurance test of the test motor is normal; after setting the parameters, the host computer can be moved as needed, or the host computer can be continued to be used to record the test data.

[0024] Assume that a durability test is required on the first and second test motors. The test motors are required to switch forward and reverse every 10 seconds, while a 20% load is simulated on the test motors. The test environment temperature is -40°C. The first and second test motors are properly placed on the motor bracket, ensuring that their gears mesh with the main gear of the test bracket. The motor bracket bolts are then secured to the motor bracket using the motor bracket fixing nuts to ensure the motors are fixed in place during the durability test. After the test motors are secured, the test host is placed in a high-temperature chamber. Test cables are used to connect the sensor interface and the test host interface on the test host to the main controller. The main controller is then connected to the adjustable power supply and the host computer for power and communication. The host computer is used to set the two motors to a 20% duty cycle load and normal control, respectively. The motors rotate in opposite directions (i.e., after the main gear force is reversed, the motor with the larger normal control motor has a 20% load in the opposite direction). The switching interval is 10 seconds. After the parameters are set, they are saved and the relevant parameters are recorded in the memory of the main controller; set the temperature of the high and low temperature box to -40℃, and after the temperature reaches the specified value, click the run button of the motor host computer or the run button of the main controller, and the main controller controls the first test motor and the second test motor to perform an endurance test. Because the two motors are set to 20% duty cycle load and normal control rotation respectively, the setting directions are opposite, and the two motors switch directions every 10s, so the two motors act as 20% duty cycle load application motors once every 10s and as normally controlled test motors once.

[0025] During the test, the angle sensor detects the rotation of the test stand's main gear. If a motor anomaly occurs during the test, the main controller identifies it by detecting abnormal rotation of the test stand's main gear or an abnormal motor duty cycle, and controls the indicator lights and buzzer. For single or multiple tests, the display accurately indicates which motor group has an anomaly and the cause. Finally, depending on the test needs, the host computer can be retained for test data recording or removed directly, while the main controller continues to operate. In the event of an unexpected power outage, the set parameters are still in the main controller's memory, so pressing the Run button will allow the main controller to continue controlling the test.
