In addition, in the present application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, when terms such as "installation", "connection", "connection" appear, they should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, an interference fit, a transition fit and other limit connections, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium; therefore, for those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0030] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, a clamping force detection tool for a brake caliper includes: a base 2, a bracket 3, a detection component 4 and a pressing component 5. The bracket 3 is fixed on the base 2. Two symmetric connecting frames 31 are fixed on the bracket 3. A slide rail 32 is slidably arranged on the connecting frame 31. A sliding frame 33 is slidably arranged on the slide rail 32. A plurality of limit seats 34 adapted to different models are arranged on the sliding frame 33. The limit seat 34 has two supporting parts 341. The supporting part 341 has a limit concave part 3411 for limiting the end part of the housing of the brake caliper; there is a gap 3412 between two adjacent supporting parts 341. A support plate 35 is fixed on the bracket 3 and the support plate 35 passes through the gap 3412; the detection component 4 is fixed on the support plate 35. The detection component 4 has a pressure sensor 41. The detection component 4 corresponds to at least one limit seat 34; the pressing component 5 is arranged on the bracket 3 and is used to press the brake caliper on the limit seat 34.

[0031] In this application, first, the brake caliper is placed on the supporting portion 341 of the position-limiting seat 34. The position-limiting concave portions 3411 of the two supporting portions 341 limit the end of the housing of the brake caliper to prevent it from moving during the detection process. Since there are multiple position-limiting seats 34 and they are adapted to different models of brake calipers, the appropriate position-limiting seat 34 can be selected according to the actual situation. Then, the brake caliper is pressed tightly on the position-limiting seat 34 through the pressing assembly 5 to ensure that the brake caliper remains stable during the detection process. Then, the pressure sensor 41 on the detection component 4 starts to work. When detecting the clamping force of the brake caliper, the clamping force generated by the brake caliper acts on the detection component 4, and the pressure sensor 41 can accurately measure the magnitude of this clamping force.

[0032] There are multiple position-limiting seats 34 and they can be adapted to different models of brake calipers, so that this detection device can be applied to the detection of various different specifications of brake calipers, improving the utilization rate of the equipment and reducing the detection cost. When testing brake calipers of different specifications, only need to push the sliding frame 33 to move it to the corresponding position-limiting seat 34 of the corresponding model, without disassembly, and it can be quickly completed.

[0033] Specifically, it further includes a position-limiting block 6. The sliding frame 33 is provided with first card slots 331 corresponding one-to-one to the position-limiting seats 34, and the connecting frame 31 is provided with second card slots 311. The position-limiting block 6 can be stuck in one of the first card slots 331 and its second card slot 311 to limit and fix the sliding frame 33.

[0034] When it is necessary to detect the clamping force of a specific model of brake caliper and determine the position of the corresponding position-limiting seat 34 on the sliding frame 33, insert the position-limiting block 6 into the first card slot 331 corresponding to the position-limiting seat 34 on the sliding frame 33 and the second card slot 311 on the connecting frame 31. At this time, the position-limiting block 6 plays a role of connection and fixation, preventing the sliding frame 33 from continuing to slide on the slide rail 32. In this way, it is ensured that during the detection process, the position-limiting seat 34 on the sliding frame 33 and the brake caliper placed on the position-limiting seat 34 will not move unnecessarily due to unexpected situations, ensuring that the detection work can be carried out in a stable state. When it is necessary to replace the brake caliper of a different model for detection, the position-limiting block 6 can be taken out of the card slot, the position of the sliding frame 33 can be readjusted and the appropriate position-limiting seat 34 can be selected, and then the position-limiting block 6 can be inserted for fixation.

[0035] Specifically, the position-limiting block 6 is provided with a guiding portion 61, and the guiding portion 61 is arranged along the edge of the position-limiting block 6.

[0036] The guide portion 61 plays a guiding role in the process of inserting the first card slot 331 and the second card slot 311. When the operator performs the installation operation of the limit card block 6, it is not necessary to spend too much time to accurately align the card slot position. The guide portion 61 can make the limit card block 6 slide to the card slot more smoothly, which greatly reduces the installation difficulty and improves the installation efficiency.

[0037] Specifically, a pull ring 62 is fixed on the limiting block 6 .

[0038] The pull ring 62 provides a convenient point of force for the operator. When the limit block 6 needs to be removed, the pull ring 62 also enables the operator to quickly pull out the limit block 6, which greatly improves the convenience and efficiency of the operation.

[0039] Specifically, the pressing assembly 5 includes a push rod motor 51 and a pressing plate 52 . The push rod motor 51 is fixed on the bracket 3 , and the pressing plate 52 is hinged on the push rod of the push rod motor 51 .

[0040] When the brake caliper needs to be clamped, the push rod motor 51 is started. The push rod of the push rod motor 51 begins to extend, pushing the pressing plate 52 hinged thereto. Since the pressing plate 52 is hinged to the push rod of the push rod motor 51, the pressing plate 52 can be adjusted in angle within a certain range.

[0041] Specifically, rubber pressing blocks 53 are fixed to both ends of the pressing plate 52 .

[0042] The rubber pressure block 53 is relatively soft in texture, and can prevent the pressure plate 52 from directly contacting the brake caliper when the brake caliper is compressed, thereby preventing scratches, indentations and other damages to the surface of the brake caliper, and effectively protecting the appearance and integrity of the brake caliper.

[0043] Specifically, a display 7 is provided on the base 2 , and the display 7 is connected to the pressure sensor 41 , and is used to display the value of the pressure sensor 41 after being subjected to pressure.

[0044] The operator can intuitively see the brake caliper clamping force value detected by the pressure sensor 41 through the display 7, without having to perform complex calculations or determine the clamping force through other indirect methods, which greatly improves work efficiency.

[0045] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present application and are not intended to limit the technical solutions described in the present application. Although the present application has been described in detail in this specification with reference to the above embodiments, a person of ordinary skill in the art should understand that a person of ordinary skill in the art can still modify or make equivalent substitutions to the present application, and all technical solutions and improvements thereof that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present application should be included in the scope of the claims of the present application.
