It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand the utility model, but does not constitute a limitation of the utility model.

[0028] Example:

[0029] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a steering wheel inspection tool comprises a base 100, a clamping member 200 and a detection member 300;

[0030] The base 100 has a basic shape and thickness;

[0031] The clamping member 200 is rotatably disposed on the base 100, and the clamping member 200 has a first position for connecting to the steering wheel and a second position for disengaging from the steering wheel;

[0032] The detection member 300 is disposed on the base 100 . When the base 100 is connected to the steering wheel via the clamping member 200 , the detection member 300 is plugged into the steering wheel to detect the steering wheel.

[0033] The steering wheel test fixture is connected to the steering wheel through the clamping member 200, so that the steering wheel test fixture is fixed on the steering wheel, and the detection member 300 is plugged into a preset position in the steering wheel to detect the steering wheel. Based on this, the steering wheel test fixture is used to replace manual labor, with higher testing efficiency, increased production efficiency, better testing accuracy, and improved production quality.

[0034] During operation, the cover of the steering wheel is removed, and the internal structure of the steering wheel is exposed. The staff holds the base 100 and buckles the base 100 on the steering wheel. The clip 200 and the detection part 300 play a positioning role at the same time. The clip 200 is rotated so that the clip 200 is in the first position, thereby fixing the steering wheel inspection fixture on the base 100, and the detection part 300 is started and tested. After the test is completed, the clip 200 is rotated to switch the clip 200 from the first position to the second position. The staff holds the base 100 and pulls out the base 100 to separate the steering wheel inspection fixture from the steering wheel. The inspected steering wheel is transported to the next process, and the uninspected steering wheel is replaced, and the above process is repeated to achieve re-inspection.

[0035] It is easy to understand that the base 100 can be constructed in any suitable shape. The clamping member 200 and the detection member 300 can be arranged at any suitable position on the base 100 .

[0036] In this embodiment, the clamping member 200 includes a clamping shaft 201 and a clamping cylinder 202;

[0037] The clamping shaft 201 is vertically and rotatably arranged on the base 100. The upper and lower ends of the clamping shaft 201 pass through the base 100. The upper end of the clamping shaft 201 is configured as a control end, and the lower end of the clamping shaft 201 is configured as a clamping end provided with a clamping groove 203.

[0038] The clamping cylinder 202 includes an upper clamping cylinder 204 and a lower clamping cylinder 205 which are arranged opposite to each other. The upper clamping cylinder 204 is sleeved on the upper part of the clamping shaft 201, and the lower clamping cylinder 205 is sleeved on the lower part of the clamping shaft 201.

[0039] Correspondingly, the base 100 is provided with a first slot body adapted to the clamping shaft 201 , a second slot body adapted to the upper clamping cylinder 204 , and a third slot body adapted to the lower clamping cylinder 205 , and the second slot body is connected to the third slot body through the first slot body.

[0040] Based on the above design, the clamping shaft 201 is rotatably arranged on the base 100, and a force is applied to the clamping shaft 201 through the upper end of the clamping shaft 201, thereby driving the clamping shaft 201 to rotate, and finally realizing the switching of the first position and the second position of the clamping shaft 201. The lower end of the clamping shaft 201 is provided with a clamping groove 203, and the clamping groove 203 is abutted against the inner part of the steering wheel to achieve fixation. The clamping cylinder 202 is used to connect the clamping shaft 201 and the base 100, such as Figure 2 As shown, according to different positions, the clamping cylinder 202 includes an upper clamping cylinder 204 and a lower clamping cylinder 205, wherein a secondary clamping groove 203 is provided on the side of the lower clamping cylinder 205. The setting of the secondary clamping groove 203 increases the number of clamping points and improves the fixing effect.

[0041] In a possible implementation, the upper end of the clamping shaft 201 is provided with a control hole 206 and a control bolt 207 inserted in the control hole 206, and a gasket 208 is provided between the clamping shaft 201 and the control bolt 207. Based on the above design, the control bolt 207 is conveniently connected to an external part such as a wrench, and the external part is used to apply force to the clamping shaft 201 to improve the convenience of rotating the clamping shaft 201. The gasket 208 is used to improve the tightness of the connection between the control bolt 207 and the clamping shaft 201 and reduce slippage.

[0042] In this embodiment, the detection member 300 includes a plurality of detection columns 301, and each detection column 301 is provided with a detection module 302. Based on the above design scheme, when the clamping member 200 is fixedly connected to the steering wheel, the detection column 301 is inserted into the steering wheel. If necessary, the detection column 301 can also clamp the components in the steering wheel to play a positioning role and improve the accuracy of fixation. Further, the detection module 302 is used for the detection of the steering wheel. It is easy to understand that according to the needs of the detection, the detection module 302 can select any suitable commercially available equipment.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, two opposite detection columns 301 are provided on the periphery of the clamping member 200. Accordingly, one clamping member 200 and the corresponding two detection columns 301 form a detection group, and two opposite detection groups are provided on the base 100. It is easy to understand that the number of the clamping members 200 and / or the detection columns 301 can be appropriately increased or decreased according to actual detection needs, and the positions of the clamping members 200 and / or the detection columns 301 can also be adjusted to meet actual detection needs.

[0044] In this embodiment, an inwardly concave gripping groove or an outwardly extending gripping handle 401 is provided on the top surface of the base 100. When the base 100 is provided with a gripping handle 401, a pad 402 is provided between the gripping handle 401 and the top surface of the base 100. Accordingly, the clamping member 200 passes through the pad 402 and is connected to the outside world. Based on the above design scheme, by designing the gripping groove or the gripping handle 401, it is convenient for the staff to take the base 100, and then it is convenient to disassemble and assemble the steering wheel inspection fixture and the steering wheel. It is easy to understand that the function of the pad 402 is the same as that of the gasket 208, which will not be repeated here; further, the pad 402 extends outward and covers the clamping tube 202, thereby shielding the second slot body and reducing the intrusion of external impurities.

[0045] like Figure 3As shown, when a handle 401 is provided on the base 100, the handle 401 is vertically arranged, a retaining ring 403 is fixed to the lower end of the handle 401, the retaining ring 403 is rotatably arranged on the base 100, and an arc groove 404 is provided on the outer periphery of the retaining ring 403, and a clamping plate 405 extending into the arc groove 404 is provided on the base 100; when the handle 401 rotates around the base 100 through the retaining ring 403, the clamping plate 405 rotates along the arc groove 404 and can clamp the steering wheel.

[0046] Based on the above design, the staff rotates the handle 401, and the retaining ring 403 rotates with the handle 401, so that the distance between the end wall of the arc groove 404 and the clamping plate 405 changes, thereby achieving clamping or loosening. After the steering wheel inspection fixture is connected to the steering wheel through the clamping piece 200, the components on the steering wheel are inserted into the arc groove 404, and the staff rotates the handle 401 to clamp the components of the steering wheel through the clamping plate 405. Based on this, the number of positioning points and fixing points is increased, and the fixing effect is further improved.

[0047] In a possible implementation, the base 100 is provided with an indicator symbol 500 located on the pad 402 or on the portion of the top surface of the base 100 not blocked by the pad 402. Based on the above design, the indicator symbol 500 indicates the direction, which facilitates the staff to quickly grasp the orientation of the base 100 to improve the accuracy of fixation. It is easy to understand that the indicator symbol 500 can be in any suitable form such as numbers, words, letters, patterns, etc.

[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
