TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of bearing test equipment, in particular to a combined automobile wheel hub bearing mud water test equipment. BACKGROUND
[0002] As the core component of the vehicle running system, the durability, sealing performance and load resistance of the automobile wheel hub bearing directly determine the safety and reliability of driving. In actual operation, the wheel hub bearing needs to bear the radial load from the vehicle weight, the axial load generated by acceleration / braking and the complex impact load caused by complex road conditions, and is exposed to mud, salt water and other harsh environments for a long time, facing multiple challenges of wear, corrosion and fatigue failure. Therefore, accurately simulating the actual working conditions through test equipment to verify the performance of the wheel hub bearing is a key link to ensure product quality. However, the existing wheel hub bearing test equipment has significant technical limitations in working condition simulation and general adaptability, mainly in the following aspects:
[0003] Firstly, the complex load simulation capability is insufficient: traditional test machines mostly use single direction load application method, which can only simulate axial or radial stress state separately, and cannot reproduce the axial and radial combined load system formed by the weight of the vehicle and the acceleration force in vehicle driving. Similar to the test device for water-lubricated bearings of ships, the test data is distorted due to the neglect of the shaft system eccentricity caused by the propeller. The existing equipment is insufficient in simulating the complex stress field of the wheel hub bearing under dynamic conditions such as turning and bumping, resulting in essential differences between the test load and the actual working conditions.
[0004] Secondly, the wheel distance adjustment precision and operation convenience are low: the wheel distance of wheel hub bearings of different vehicle models (such as compact cars and medium-sized cars) varies significantly, and the wheel distance adjustment structure of the existing equipment generally has problems such as difficult debugging and insufficient positioning accuracy. Most of the equipment adjusts parameters by moving the loading device, but due to the limitation of installation space, the position deviation of the force loading point is difficult to control, and the adjustment process needs to be completed by multiple people, which not only prolongs the test preparation time, but also reduces the reliability of the test data due to the deviation of the loading position.
[0005] Thirdly, there are double shortcomings in environmental simulation authenticity and equipment economy: on the one hand, the existing mud and salt water environment simulation system generally has problems such as unstable spraying flow and uneven coverage, making it difficult to accurately reproduce the actual erosion scene of the vehicle in water and muddy road; on the other hand, the traditional test bench structure design is redundant, occupying a large space, and most of them are customized for specific specifications of bearings, with poor universality. For example, the deep groove ball bearing test machine has low space utilization due to unreasonable layout, and the repeated construction of special test benches further increases the cost of equipment investment and site, which restricts the improvement of test efficiency.
[0006] The defects cause that the existing device is difficult to form the integrated test capability of "compound load + real environment + multi-specification adaptation", the test data deviates greatly from the actual working condition, which not only affects the accuracy of product reliability evaluation, but also prolongs the new product development cycle and increases the research and development cost.
