[0033] A first aspect of the present application provides a pull-out detection device, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that there is no device for detecting whether the drive shaft retaining ring is properly installed.
[0034] The following will refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pull-out detection device according to some embodiments of the present application is described in detail.
[0035] The extraction detection device of the present application includes a detection fork arm 100 and a torque wrench 200. The torque wrench 200 is pre-set with a torque value M, and the torque wrench 200 includes a handle 201; the detection fork arm 100 is connected to the torque wrench 200; the detection fork arm 100 can clamp the shaft to be detected, and the fulcrum a of the detection fork arm 100 can abut against the external support member; the handle 201 can enable the detection fork arm 100 to apply an axial force to the shaft to be detected.
[0036] According to the above technical features, the beneficial effects of this application are:
[0037] When using the pull-out detection device to detect whether the shaft is installed in place, for example, when detecting whether the drive shaft retaining ring is installed in place:
[0038] First, according to the pull-out detection force of the drive shaft (as required by the drawing), a torque value M is pre-set on the torque wrench 200 .
[0039] Then, the detection fork arm 100 is clamped to the drive shaft to be detected, and the detection device is pulled out perpendicular to the drive shaft to be detected.
[0040] Next, the fulcrum a of the detection fork arm 100 is abutted against the external support member, and then the handle is held to apply force. At this time, with the support of the fulcrum a, the detection fork arm 100 can apply axial force to the drive shaft to be detected through the handle 201.
[0041] Finally, when the torque value M set by the torque wrench 200 is reached, the torque wrench 200 emits a "click" sound to remind the operator that the detection is completed, indicating that the drive shaft retaining ring is now installed in place.
[0042] In the embodiment of the present application, the torque value M of the torque wrench 200 is pre-set as follows:
[0043] like Figure 2As shown, F1 is the pull-out detection force of the drive shaft (as required by the drawing); F2 is the force applied by the operator; L1 is the predetermined distance between the force point of the drive shaft and the fulcrum a (measurable, depending on the on-site mechanism); L2 is the predetermined distance between the fulcrum a and the force application point of the handle 201 (measurable, depending on the on-site mechanism); L3 is the predetermined distance between the torque wrench 200 and the force application point of the handle 201 (measurable, depending on the on-site mechanism. The torque value M of the torque wrench 200 = F2 × L3).
[0044] According to the principle of the pull-out detection device: F1×L1=F2×L2, F2 can be obtained, and F2 is usually selected as 70N-100N. Therefore, the torque value M of the torque wrench 200 can be obtained as F2×L3.
[0045] Further, in the embodiments of the present application, preferably, the leverage ratio L2 / L1 is generally selected to be 8-10.
[0046] In an embodiment of the present application, the shape of the detection fork arm 100 can be designed according to the drive shaft and transmission of a specific vehicle model; on the production line, to meet the detection requirements of different vehicle models, multiple detection fork arms 100 can be replaced and can be detachably connected to the torque wrench 200.
[0047] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 As shown, the head 101 of the detection fork arm 100 can be U-shaped, and the head 101 of the detection fork arm 100 can clamp the shaft to be detected. Further, a protective layer is provided on the inner side of the head 101, and the hardness of the protective layer is less than the hardness of the shaft to be detected, so as to prevent the surface paint layer of the shaft to be detected from being scratched during the detection process. As an example, the protective layer can be a rubber protective layer.
[0048] In addition, in the embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 As shown, the torque wrench 200 also includes a torque adjustment mechanism 202, which can adjust the set torque value M. The torque value M can be adjusted as needed, and the tool has good versatility (it should be noted here that the torque adjustment mechanism 202 equipped with the torque wrench 200 belongs to the prior art and will not be described in detail here).
[0049] A second aspect of the present application provides a detection system, which includes the pull-out detection device as described above and a shaft to be detected.
[0050] Furthermore, the detection system also includes a transmission assembly to be detected, and the shaft to be detected (drive shaft) is spline-connected to the transmission assembly.
[0051] As an example, the transmission assembly further includes a differential, and the drive shaft is spline-connected to the differential; the differential includes a housing, and the fulcrum a of the detection fork arm 100 can abut against the housing.
[0052] Specifically, when using the pull-out detection device to detect whether the drive shaft snap ring is installed in place, for example, when detecting whether the drive shaft snap ring and the differential are installed in place:
[0053] First, according to the pull-out detection force of the drive shaft (as required by the drawing), a torque value M is pre-set on the torque wrench 200 .
[0054] Then, the detection fork arm 100 is clamped to the drive shaft to be detected, and the detection device is pulled out perpendicular to the drive shaft to be detected.
[0055] Next, the fulcrum a of the detection fork arm 100 is placed against the housing of the differential, and the handle is held to apply force. At this time, with the support of the fulcrum a, the detection fork arm 100 can apply axial force to the drive shaft to be detected through the handle 201.
[0056] Finally, when the torque value M set by the torque wrench 200 is reached, the torque wrench 200 emits a "click" sound to remind the operator that the detection is completed, indicating that the drive shaft retaining ring is now installed in place.
[0057] In addition, after hearing a "click" sound, the operator stops applying force to prevent the drive shaft from accidentally coming out by continuing to apply force.
[0058] Finally, it should be noted that the above-described embodiments are only specific implementation methods of the present application, which are used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application rather than to limit them. The protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that any technician familiar with this technical field can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned embodiments within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein; and these modifications, changes or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and should all be covered by the protection scope of the present application.
