In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined as "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0031] See 1 to Fig. 9 As shown, this embodiment provides a knob 30 testing machine, including a linear mechanism 4, a rotating mechanism 5, a first mounting frame 1, a second mounting frame 2 and a measuring table 3. Figure 1 , a second mounting frame 2 is mounted on the first mounting frame 1, and a measuring platform 3 is fixed on the second mounting frame 2. A linear mechanism 4 is fixed on the first mounting frame 1, a rotating mechanism 5 is fixed on the second mounting frame 2, and the measuring platform 3 is used to fix a knob 30 assembly. It should be noted that the knob 30 assembly belongs to the prior art structure. A part of the knob 30 is fixed on the knob 30 assembly, and when the knob 30 assembly is fixed on the measuring platform 3, a part of the knob 30 is fixed by the rotating mechanism 5.

[0032] Specifically, the linear mechanism 4 includes a moving plate and a driving assembly. A plurality of racks 7 are installed on the upper end surface of the sliding plate 6 according to actual needs. Figure 3 , the present application is provided with two racks 7, and the lower end surface of the sliding plate 6 is slidably connected to the first mounting frame 1. In the present embodiment, a slider 8 is fixedly mounted on the lower end surface of the sliding plate 6, and a corresponding slide rail 9 slidably connected to the slider 8 is fixed on the first mounting frame 1. The driving assembly is fixed on the first mounting frame 1, and is used to drive the sliding plate 6 to reciprocate linearly.

[0033] In some embodiments, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 4The driving assembly includes a motor 10, a crank turntable 11 and a connecting rod 12. The motor 10 is fixed to the first mounting frame 1 through a first support 13. The shaft of the motor 10 is rotatably connected to the second support 14 through a bearing 33, and the front end of the shaft is fixedly connected to the crank turntable 11. One end of the connecting rod 12 is rotatably connected to the crank turntable 11, and the other end is rotatably connected to the sliding plate 6. The first support 13 and the second support 14 can enable the motor 10 to maintain stable rotation, avoid the deviation of the shaft during rotation due to its own vibration interference, and improve the accuracy and stability of the test.

[0034] Among them, combined Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the rotating mechanism 5 includes a rotating shaft 15, a follower turntable 16 and a clamping sleeve 17. The shaft body of the rotating shaft 15 is rotatably connected to the second mounting frame 2. A gear 19 is fixed to the lower shaft end of the rotating shaft 15, and the gear 19 is meshed with the rack 7 in the linear mechanism 4. When the rack 7 moves forward and backward with the sliding plate 6, the rotating shaft 15 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise accordingly. A truncated table 20 is fixed to the upper shaft end of the rotating shaft 15, and two positioning columns 21 are symmetrically arranged on the truncated table 20. Two symmetrical limiting grooves 22 are provided on the corresponding follower turntable 16, and the two positioning columns 21 pass through the corresponding limiting grooves 22 respectively, so that the follower turntable 16 is limited above the truncated table 20, and the width of the limiting groove 22 is greater than the diameter of the positioning column 21. A limiting column 24 is fixed to the bottom of the clamping sleeve 17. During assembly, the limiting column 24 is inserted into the limiting hole 23 provided on the follower turntable 16. According to actual needs, the number of rotating mechanisms 5 is set accordingly. This embodiment includes two groups, each group includes three rotating mechanisms 5. The rotating mechanisms 5 of each group are meshed with the rack 7 below. In some embodiments, the second mounting frame 2 is correspondingly provided with a bearing mounting hole 31; the bearing 33 is assembled in the bearing mounting seat 32. The bearing mounting seat 32 is fitted into the bearing mounting hole 31 for fixing. The shaft body of the rotating shaft 15 is fixedly connected to the bearing 33.

[0035] The knob 30 to be tested is fixed on the test platform 3 by a rotating assembly 29, and the other part passes through the test platform 3 and is placed in the clamping sleeve 17. The clamping sleeve 17 is provided with a plurality of clamping screws 25, and the knob 30 to be tested is tightened by screwing the plurality of clamping screws 25 inward. When set, each clamping screw 25 passes through the clamping sleeve 17 in the radial direction of the clamping sleeve 17 to cooperate with the clamping sleeve 17 to clamp the knob 30 to be tested. Figure 8 and Fig. 9 In this embodiment, three clamping screws 25 are arranged on the clamping sleeve, and the included angle between any two adjacent clamping screws 25 among the three screws is 120°, so as to ensure that the knob 30 to be tested can be clamped stably.

[0036] In the rotating mechanism 5 provided in the present embodiment, since the width of the limit groove 22 is larger than the diameter of the positioning column 21, when the follower turntable 16 rotates along with the rotating shaft 15 and drives the knob 30 clamping sleeve 17 to rotate, the eccentricity problem caused by the manufacturing of the knob 30 to be tested and the eccentric assembly problem caused by the assembly of the knob 30 to be tested to the clamping sleeve 17 of the knob 30 can be eliminated, and the radial force of the knob 30 to be tested during the test can be reduced, thereby improving the accuracy of the test in judging the rotation life of the knob 30.

[0037] Optionally, in some embodiments, Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the rotating mechanism 5 also includes an initial positioning pin 18. Two first positioning holes 26 are provided on the follow-up turntable 16; and two second positioning holes 27 are provided on the corresponding truncated table 20 below. The initial positioning pin 18 passes through the first positioning hole 26 and the second positioning hole 27 for positioning. The follow-up turntable 16 and the rotating shaft 15 are limited by the mutual cooperation of the limiting groove 22 and the positioning column 21, so as to achieve the purpose of following. However, due to the gap between the limiting groove 22 and the positioning column 21 when they cooperate with each other, shaking is inevitable during the installation of the knob 30, which affects the assembly efficiency. Therefore, before the knob 30 is inserted into the test, the follow-up turntable 16 and the rotating shaft 15 need to be accurately positioned by the initial positioning pin 18. After the knob 30 is installed into the knob 30 clamping sleeve 17, the initial positioning pin 18 is withdrawn. The purpose of withdrawal is to avoid radial force on the knob 30 to be tested, which leads to inaccurate life measurement results of the knob 30 to be tested or damage during rotation.

[0038] Optional, such as Figure 1 A third positioning hole 28 is provided on the test bench, and the positioning hole is directly opposite to the rotating mechanism 5 below. When the rotating assembly 29 with the knob 30 is installed, it can be installed accordingly according to the third positioning hole 28, so that part of the knob 30 is placed in the clamping sleeve 17 through the third positioning block.

[0039] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
