[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a fan testing device, including a protective cover 1 and a fan base 2, and a fan 3 to be tested is installed on the fan base 2. During the test, the fan 3 is completely placed inside the protective cover 1, and the protective cover 1 is used to isolate the fan 3 from external operators to protect the personal safety of the operators.

[0029] In order to facilitate the installation of the fan 3 and to facilitate the placement of the fan 3 inside the protective cover 1 during testing, the protective cover 1 and the fan base 2 are movably installed on the working platform 4, and the fan 3 is installed on the fan base 2 outside the protective cover 1, and then the fan 3 is placed inside the protective cover 1 by moving the protective cover 1 or the fan base 2. Of course, only the protective cover 1 can be movably installed on the ground, or only the fan base 2 can be movably installed on the ground.

[0030] In this embodiment, the working platform 4 is preferably the floor of a test workshop.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a travel switch SQ6 and a trigger device 7 are provided in the protective cover 1 and on the fan base 2, respectively. The travel switch SQ6 is installed on the fan base 2, and the trigger device 7 is installed on the protective cover 1. The travel switch SQ6 is connected in series with the contactor KM1. The contact of the contactor KM1 is connected to the circuit between the fan 3 and the power supply 5. The power supply 5 can be a fan performance tester 9, and the fan performance tester 9 provides the required power for the operation of the fan 3. The travel switch SQ6 can also take a DC24V power supply from the tester 9.

[0032] When the relative position of the fan base 2 and the protective cover 1 meets the test requirements, that is, the relative movement between the fan base 2 and the protective cover 1 reaches the set stroke, the protective cover 1 is closed in place, and the fan 3 can be completely placed inside the protective cover 1, the trigger device 7 can trigger the travel switch SQ6, the travel switch SQ6 is energized, the interlock control contactor KM1 is energized, the circuit between the fan 3 and the tester 9 is connected, and the fan 3 is powered on and started. When the trigger device 7 does not trigger the travel switch SQ6, it is determined that the protective cover 1 has not been closed in place, and the fan 3 cannot be started if the protective cover 1 is not closed in place.

[0033] This embodiment, through the arrangement of the travel switch SQ6 and the trigger device 7, can ensure that the fan 3 will start to operate only when the relative position relationship between the protective cover 1 and the fan seat 2 meets the test requirements, that is, the protective cover 1 is closed in place and the fan 3 is completely placed inside the protective cover 1. When the fan 3 has not entered the protective cover 1, the travel switch SQ6 will not be triggered, and the power supply circuit between the fan 3 and the tester 9 will remain disconnected. At this time, even if the operator makes a mistake, the fan 3 will not start. In this way, the risk of accidents caused by improper operation of the operator can be completely avoided, the safety of the test device can be improved, and the personal safety of the operator can be protected.

[0034] In this embodiment, the travel switch SQ6 preferably adopts a normally open mechanical travel switch, and the trigger device 7 adopts a travel switch contact rod. After the fan base 2 moves into place, the travel switch contact rod triggers the travel switch SQ6, the contacts of the contactor KM1 are closed, the power supply circuit of the fan 3 is connected, and the fan 3 can start to operate.

[0035] In this embodiment, another embodiment is provided for the travel switch SQ6. The travel switch SQ6 is a normally open photoelectric travel switch, which is composed of a transmitting end and a receiving end. After the protective cover 1 is closed, the travel switch SQ6 receives a trigger signal, and the contact of the contactor KM1 is closed to connect the power supply circuit of the fan 3.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the protective cover 1 includes a frame 11, and a protective net 12 is installed on the frame 11. The frame 11 is welded by multiple vertical bars and multiple horizontal bars, and three upper, middle and lower horizontal bars are welded between each two adjacent vertical bars. The protective cover 1 is open on one side of the moving distance of the fan base 2. A layer of protective net 12 is installed on the three sides of the frame 11, and a layer of protective net 12 is also installed on the top surface of the frame 11. The protective net 12 adopts a metal net to improve the protection level of the protective net 12, and is fixed to the frame 11 by screws. Of course, an openable and closable door can also be set on one side of the moving distance of the fan base 2. The door also adopts a frame and a protective net structure, and is connected to the frame 11 through a hinge. The door can also adopt a push-pull structure, which can play a better protective role.

[0037] In this embodiment, preferably, the four sides of the protective net 12 are fixed to the vertical bars on both sides and the upper and middle horizontal bars by screws, and the lower edge of the protective net 12 is required to be lower than the lower edge of the fan 3 after installation to ensure the protective effect.

[0038] In this embodiment, for the structure in which the protective cover 1 can be movably installed on the ground, running wheels 13 are installed on both sides of the bottom of the frame 11, and two tracks 14 are provided on the working platform 4, and the running wheels 13 move along the tracks 14. In this way, the protective cover 1 can be easily and stably moved on the working platform 4, and the moving direction can be controlled.

[0039] In this embodiment, it is further preferred that downwardly protruding limiting bosses (not shown) are provided on both sides of the bottom of the frame 11, and the side surfaces of the limiting bosses abut against the side surface of one side of the track, and the limiting directions of the limiting bosses on both sides of the bottom of the frame 11 are opposite. This can further make the movement of the protective cover 1 more stable, without deflection, and ensure the safety of the protective cover 1 when moving.

[0040] In this embodiment, the fan base 2 includes a base 21 and a support frame 22, the support frame 22 is installed above the base 21, and the fan 3 to be tested is installed on the support frame 22. The main body of the support frame 22 is a square frame structure for installing the fan 3, and the lower half of the square frame is a triangular structure, which is conducive to making the overall structure of the support frame 22 more stable and ensuring the stability and safety of the fan 3 during operation.

[0041] In this embodiment, the base 21 is installed on the ground, and a mounting platform 8 is installed on the inner side of the protective cover 1. The mounting platform 8 moves synchronously with the protective cover 1. The travel switch SQ6 and the trigger device 7 that cooperate with each other are installed on the base 21 and the mounting platform 8. Specifically, the travel switch SQ6 is installed on the base 21, and the trigger device 7 is installed on the mounting platform 7. The mounting platform 8 is installed at the end of the travel of the fan base 2. When the fan base 2 moves to the position, or the protective cover 1 moves to the position, the trigger device 7 on the mounting platform 8 will contact the travel switch SQ6 on the fan base 2, thereby triggering the travel switch SQ6. Furthermore, the upper surface of the mounting platform 8 and the upper surface of the base 21 are on the same plane, and the travel switch SQ6 and the trigger device 7 are installed on the upper surface of the base 21 and the upper surface of the mounting platform 8, respectively, so that the travel switch SQ6 can be accurately triggered after moving into position.

[0042] In this embodiment, further, the base 21 includes an upper base 211 and a lower base 212, the support frame 22 is fixedly installed on the upper base 211, and the lower base 212 is fixedly installed on the ground. The length of the upper base 211 is smaller than the length of the upper base 212, and the upper base 212 and the lower base 212 are slidably connected by a sliding mechanism (not shown in the figure), and the limit switch SQ6 is installed on the upper surface of the upper base 211, and the upper base 212 drives the limit switch SQ6 to move along the lower base 212.

[0043] In this embodiment, further, the sliding mechanism includes two parallel slide rails arranged on the upper surface of the lower base 212, two sets of sliders extending downward from the bottom of the upper base 211, and the sliders move along the corresponding slide rails, and a transmission mechanism is installed between the upper base 211 and the lower base 212, and the transmission mechanism is connected to the driving device. The transmission mechanism can adopt a conventional gear rack transmission mechanism, a belt transmission mechanism, a screw transmission mechanism, a chain transmission mechanism, etc., and the driving device can be driven by a motor.

[0044] In this embodiment, the length of the lower base 212 is greater than the length of the protective cover 1, so that the moving stroke of the upper base 211 relative to the protective cover 1 can be increased. Regardless of the moving position of the protective cover 1, the operator can install the fan 3 on the outside of the protective cover 1, which is convenient for the operator to operate. The protective cover 1 can also be moved to the position of the lower base 212 first, and then the fan 3 can be moved toward the inside of the protective cover 1 by moving the upper base 211 until the trigger device 7 on the mounting platform 8 triggers the travel switch SQ6 on the upper base 211.

[0045] The operating steps of the fan test device are as follows:

[0046] 1. Install the fan 3 on the support frame 22.

[0047] 2. Move the protective cover 1 to a position close to the lower base 212 , and then move the upper base 211 toward the mounting platform 8 .

[0048] 3. Move the upper base 211 to the position of the mounting platform 8 so that the trigger device 7 on the mounting platform 8 triggers the travel switch SQ6 on the upper base 211 .

[0049] 4. Start the tester 9, start the fan 3, and perform a performance test on the fan 3.

[0050] The fan testing device provided by the utility model has the following advantages:

[0051] (1) The test device is provided with a travel switch and a trigger device that cooperate with each other between the protective cover and the fan base. Only when the relative position relationship between the protective cover and the fan base meets the test requirements, that is, when the fan is completely placed inside the protective cover, the travel switch is triggered and the fan is powered on and starts to operate. This can completely avoid the risk of accidents caused by improper operation of the operator, improve the safety of the test, and protect the personal safety of the operator.

[0052] (2) The overall structure of the test device is simple and its operation is reliable. The relative position of the fan and the protective cover can be adjusted by moving the protective cover and the fan base. The protective cover can be used to isolate the operator, effectively solving potential safety hazards.

[0053] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention. Although the present invention has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment as above, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any technician familiar with this patent can make some changes or modifications to equivalent embodiments of equivalent changes using the technical contents suggested above without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
