[0020] Upon request, specific embodiments of the present application will be disclosed herein. However, it should be understood that the embodiments disclosed herein are merely typical examples of the present application, which may be embodied in various forms. Therefore, the specific details disclosed herein are not considered to be restrictive, but only as a basis for the claims and as a representative basis for teaching those skilled in the art to apply the present application in various ways in practice in any appropriate manner, including using the various features disclosed herein and combining features that may not be explicitly disclosed herein.

[0021] See also Figure 1 The present application provides a test device 100 for detecting the bending performance of an insulator 20. The test device 100 includes a frame 110, a first fixture 121 and a camera system. The first fixture 121 is disposed on the frame 110 and is used to install the insulator 20. The camera system is movably disposed on the frame 110 and is used to detect the creep of the insulator 20 in the bending test in real time. The frame 110 includes a base 111, two support frames 112 and a top crossbeam 113. The two support frames 112 are disposed on the base 111 at intervals along the length direction of the base 111. The top crossbeam 113 is fixed to the top of the two support frames 112, and the top crossbeam 113 is also disposed along the length direction of the base 111. The base 111 includes two bottom crossbeams 1111 disposed at intervals along the width direction of the base 111. The support frames 112 are simultaneously connected to the two bottom crossbeams 1111. The length direction of the base 111 and the width direction of the base 111 are both located in the same horizontal plane, and the length direction of the base 111 is perpendicular to the width direction of the base 111 .

[0022] The first fixture 121 is a plate-shaped part, that is, the first fixture 121 is a first fixture plate 121, which is fixedly installed on one of the support frames 112. The first fixture plate 121 is provided with a connection hole that matches the flange at one end of the insulator 20, which is used to install the insulator 20, so that the insulator 20 is arranged along the length direction of the base 111, that is, the axis of the insulator 20 is parallel to the horizontal direction. The support frame 112 connected to the first fixture 121 is defined as the first support frame 1121, and the other support frame 112 is defined as the second support frame 1122. Among them, the first fixture 121 is fixedly connected to the side of the first support frame 1121 facing the second support frame 1122.

[0023] The first support frame 1121 includes a bottom plate 1123 and a support plate 1124. The bottom plate 1123 is fixedly connected to two bottom cross beams 1111 arranged at intervals. The support plate 1124 is vertically fixed to the plate surface of the bottom plate 1123 away from the bottom cross beam 1111. The structure of the second support frame 1122 is the same as that of the first support frame 1121. The second support frame 1122 is arranged opposite to the first support frame 1121, and the specific details are not repeated. A plurality of mounting holes are arranged on the bottom cross beam 1111 along the length direction of the base 111. The bottom plate 1123 of the first support frame 1121 and the bottom plate 1123 of the second support frame 1122 are selectively matched and connected with one of the mounting holes, so that the relative position between the first support frame 1121 and the second support frame 1122 can be adjusted. That is, according to the insulator 20 of different lengths, the distance between the first support frame 1121 and the second support frame 1122 is adjusted to facilitate the application of bending stress to the end of the insulator 20 away from the first fixture 121.

[0024] Combination Figure 2 As shown, the test device 100 also includes a second fixture 122, and the second fixture 122 includes a second fixture plate 1221 and a support rod 1222. The second fixture plate 1221 is provided with a connection hole, and the flange at the other end of the insulator 20 is matched and connected with the connection hole on the second fixture plate 1221. The support rod 1222 is arranged on the side of the second fixture plate 1221 away from the insulator 20. In one embodiment, the support rod 1222 is fixed to the second fixture plate 1221 by threaded connection, which is convenient for replacing the support rod 1222 after it is damaged. In other embodiments, the support rod and the second fixture plate can also be fixed by welding, as long as the connection between the support rod and the second fixture plate can be ensured to be stable, and there is no limitation here.

[0025] Continue reading Figure 1The test device 100 includes a hydraulic system 130, which includes a hydraulic motor (not shown) and a hydraulic jack 131. The hydraulic motor is arranged outside the frame 110 and is used to provide power to the hydraulic jack 131. The hydraulic jack 131 is arranged on the base 111. The hydraulic system 130 also includes a mounting plate 132. The hydraulic jack 131 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 132. The mounting plate 132 is also provided with a connecting hole. After the connecting hole on the mounting plate 132 is matched with the mounting hole on the bottom plate 1123 of the second support frame 1122, the hydraulic jack 131 is fixedly connected to the second support frame 1122, that is, the hydraulic jack 131 is fixedly connected to the base 111. The hydraulic ejector 131 includes an ejection part 1311 and a hydraulic part 1312. The hydraulic part 1312 is a cylindrical hollow structure. The axis of the hydraulic part 1312 is parallel to the vertical direction. The ejection part 1311 is a long rod. The ejection part 1311 is movably arranged in the cylindrical inner cavity of the hydraulic part 1312. The hydraulic motor drives the ejection part 1311 to move in the hydraulic part 1312 along the vertical direction.

[0026] When one end of the insulator 20 is fixed on the first fixture 121, the other end of the insulator 20 abuts against the hydraulic system 130 through the second fixture 122. Specifically, the ejection part 1311 abuts against the support rod 1222 on the second fixture 122, and the hydraulic motor drives the ejection part 1311 to move vertically upward. The ejection part 1311 drives the support rod 1222 to make the insulator 20 make a vertical upward circular motion around the connection between it and the first fixture 121, thereby applying bending stress to the insulator 20. Since the bending creep test needs to be carried out for a long time, the setting of the hydraulic system 130 can greatly save manpower. Hydraulic pressure is applied to the end of the insulator 20, wherein the end of the ejection part 1311 adopts a cylindrical surface, and the support rod 1222 adopts a cylindrical rod body, on which a concave surface is provided to adapt to the cylindrical surface on the ejection part 1311. In combination with the hydraulic force, the pressure of the hydraulic system 130 is stable, ensuring the continuous progress of the bending test, and at the same time ensuring the stability of the bending force and the adjustability of the tonnage.

[0027] Continue reading Figure 1 The camera system includes an upper camera system 140 and a lower camera system 150. The upper camera system 140 is fixed below the top beam 113 and is used to detect the bending creep condition of the top of the insulator 20 in real time. The lower camera system 150 is fixed above the base 111 and is used to detect the bending creep condition of the bottom of the insulator 20 in real time.

[0028] Combination Figure 3As shown, the upper camera system 140 includes a first connecting plate 141 and an upper camera 142 fixed to the first connecting plate 141. The bottom of the top crossbeam 113 is provided with a first groove 1131 extending along the length direction of the top crossbeam 113. The first connecting plate 141 is movably fixed in the first groove 1131. The first connecting plate 141 is made of alloy steel. The first groove 1131 extends along the length direction of the top crossbeam 113 on the top crossbeam 113, so that the upper camera system 140 can move along the length direction of the top crossbeam 113, that is, it can move along the axial direction of the insulator 20. Since the creep of the insulator 20 during the bending test mostly occurs in the part of the insulator 20 close to the first fixture 121, the specific position where the creep occurs is different according to the different lengths of the insulator 20. The movable setting of the upper camera system 140 can make the upper camera system 140 suitable for insulators 20 of various length specifications. Before the bending test is run, the area where the insulating tube of the insulator 20 may creep is pre-determined, and the outer wall of the insulating tube in this area is sprayed with paint. If the insulator 20 creeps, the painted part will undergo strain changes. The strain changes can be reflected on the system platform by image recognition, so that the upper camera system 140 can detect the strain change process of the top of the insulator 20 during the bending test in real time and keep the image record. Among them, the type of spraying paint corresponds to the software that the upper camera system 140 can recognize images.

[0029] Combination Figure 4 As shown, the lower camera system 150 includes a mobile bracket 151 and a lower camera 152 fixed to the mobile bracket 151. The mobile bracket 151 includes a connecting seat 1511 and a moving plate 1512. The connecting seat 1511 is provided in two pieces. The connecting seat 1511 includes a second connecting plate 15111 and a third connecting plate 15112. The third connecting plate 15112 is vertically fixed to the second connecting plate 15111, so that the connecting seat 1511 is L-shaped as a whole. The moving plate 1512 includes a fourth connecting plate 15121 and two fifth connecting plates 15122. The two side edges of the fourth connecting plate 15121 are respectively vertically fixed with two fifth connecting plates 15122, so that the moving plate 1512 is U-shaped as a whole. The mobile plate 1512 is fixedly connected to the third connecting plates 15112 on the two connecting seats 1511 through the fifth connecting plates 15122 on both sides, so that the mobile plate 1512 is fixedly arranged between the two connecting seats 1511, and the lower camera 152 is fixedly connected to the fourth connecting plate 15121 of the mobile plate 1512. At the same time, the U-shaped notch of the mobile plate 1512 is arranged in a downward direction, so that the lower camera 152 is located above the mobile bracket 151.

[0030] Continue reading Figure 1, a second groove 1112 extending along the length direction of the bottom crossbeam 1111 is provided above each bottom crossbeam 1111, and two connecting seats 1511 are movably fixed in the second grooves 1112 of the two bottom crossbeams 1111, respectively. The second groove 1112 extends along the length direction of the bottom crossbeam 1111 on the bottom crossbeam 1111, so that the lower camera system 150 can move along the length direction of the bottom crossbeam 1111, that is, can move along the axial direction of the insulator 20. Specifically, the connecting seat 1511 is fixed to the second groove 1112 through the second connecting plate 15111. Since the creep of the insulator 20 during the bending test mostly occurs in the part of the insulator 20 close to the first fixture 121, the specific position where the creep occurs is different according to the different lengths of the insulator 20. The movable setting of the lower camera system 150 can make the lower camera system 150 suitable for insulators 20 of various length specifications. Before the bending test is run, the area where the insulating tube of the insulator 20 may creep is pre-determined, and the outer wall of the insulating tube in this area is sprayed with paint. If the insulator 20 creeps, the painted part will undergo strain changes. The strain changes can be reflected on the system platform by image recognition, so that the lower camera system 150 can detect the strain change process of the bottom of the insulator 20 during the bending test in real time and keep the image record. Among them, the type of spraying paint corresponds to the software that the lower camera system 150 can recognize images.

[0031] Combination Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the fifth connecting plate 15122 is connected to the third connecting plate 15112 in an adjustable position, the third connecting plate 15112 is provided with a first through hole 15113 and a second through hole 15114, the fifth connecting plate 15122 is provided with a third through hole 15123 and an arc groove 15124, the first through hole 15113 and the third through hole 15123 are matched with each other and fixedly connected by fasteners, and the second through hole 15114 and the arc groove 15124 are matched with each other and fixedly connected by fasteners. The center of the arc groove 15124 is concentric with the center of the third through hole 15123, and the distance between the center of the first through hole 15113 and the center of the second through hole 15114 is equal to the radius of the arc groove 15124. The second through hole 15114 can be fixedly connected after being matched at any position on the arc groove 15124, so that the relative angle between the movable plate 1512 and the connecting seat 1511 can be adjusted, that is, the movable plate 1512 can be fixedly connected to the connecting seat 1511 in an adjustable position, so that the shooting direction of the lower camera 152 can be adjusted, that is, the lower camera 152 can shoot and measure the creep conditions at multiple angles at the bottom of the insulator 20. Among them, the center angle of the arc groove 15124 is less than 180°, which can be suitable for the shooting angle of the lower camera 152, while avoiding the arc groove 15124 from being opened too large to affect the strength of the fifth connecting plate 15122.

[0032] Among them, the upper camera 142 and the lower camera 152 both use the latest existing camera technology, with a solid structure, a stable test process, and easy operation. They also have high resolution, up to 12 million pixels, and the probe can take up to 2,000 images per second. They can not only detect the subtle strain of the insulator 20, but also detect local strain effects in a large range. They are ideal measurement systems that meet the high-end application requirements of industrial environments.

[0033] Among them, the second connecting plate 15111, the third connecting plate 15112, the fourth connecting plate 15121 and the fifth connecting plate 15122 are all made of alloy steel. The second connecting plate 15111 and the third connecting plate 15112 can be integrally formed or fixed by welding, and the fourth connecting plate 15121 and the fifth connecting plate 15122 can also be integrally formed or fixed by welding, which is not limited here.

[0034] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: the bending test device of the present application is upgraded and modified from the traditional bending test device. A camera system is added to the existing frame, which can detect the creep condition on the insulator in real time, overcoming the large strain fluctuation and inaccurate measurement results caused by the traditional placement of strain gauges, and can perform high-quality and long-term strain detection. By optimizing the way the camera system is installed, the measurement position and measurement direction of the three-dimensional camera system can be adjusted to adapt to all specifications of insulator bending creep tests. And by adding a hydraulic system, the existing bending test process can be optimized to achieve the stability of the bending force and the adjustability of the tonnage. At the same time, the test device also has the ability to resist environmental interference during the test.
