Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of diagnostic equipment, in particular to a 32-circuit diagnostic equipment for an automobile safety airbag controller. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of automobile technology, people's requirements for driving safety are getting higher and higher. As an important passive safety device on the car, the improvement of the performance of airbags is crucial to reducing casualties in accidents. As the core control device for airbag deployment, the automobile airbag controller (Airbag Control Unit, referred to as ACU) integrates the vehicle acceleration sensor chip, CPU (computing unit), EDR (recording unit) and corresponding peripheral equipment. Its main function is to sample and analyze the driving status of the vehicle in real time. When the vehicle collides, it can detect the changes in the speed and posture of the vehicle during the collision in time. The CPU built into the ACU performs real-time analysis and pre-processing of parameters such as speed and posture, and analyzes according to different calculation models to determine whether the airbag deployment conditions are met, so as to perform corresponding actions.
[0003] Currently, automakers are increasing the number of airbag loops to improve their response speed and accuracy, thereby ensuring faster and more accurate protection for passengers in the event of a collision. The number of airbags configured in passenger cars (loops for short) and the number of occupant detection and seat belt buckle switches (switches for short) are constantly increasing, from the original 4-16 loops and 2-10 switches to 32 loops and 20 switches. The original controller can no longer meet the protection needs of vehicle safety. Currently, the 32-loop controller has entered the testing phase.
[0004] As the number of circuits increases, the complexity of the ACU increases exponentially. It is particularly important to conduct environmental simulation and testing before leaving the factory to prevent faulty or hidden parts from entering the car factory. A corresponding 32-circuit ACU supporting diagnosis and testing device is needed. The utility model not only meets the environmental simulation test requirements for the 32-circuit ACU, but also integrates a 20-way switch detection interface, TYPE-C input multi-function power supply, CAN communication interface, LCD control unit, TF card, vehicle OBD interface and corresponding operation switches, indicator lights, LED display and other functions to meet the test requirements for various performance indicators of the ACU such as each circuit open, short circuit, switch resistance change, CAN communication parameters, different voltage levels, etc. The device can accurately locate the various fault points inside the ACU and display the fault location in real time. At the same time, it can interact with the host computer through CAN, KLine, meet the requirements of rapid troubleshooting, and improve production efficiency. Utility Model Content
