[0037] Referring to Figures 1 to 10 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, a vehicle cup holder testing device, on which a switch 011 is provided on the cup holder 010, includes:
[0038] A base 100, on the upper surface of which a plurality of cup holder positions 110 are provided;
[0039] A first linear driving part 200, provided corresponding to the plurality of cup holder positions 110, the first linear driving part 200 includes a first driver 210 and a first shaft 220 driven by the first driver 210;
[0040] A second linear driving part 300, provided corresponding to the plurality of cup holder positions 110, the second linear driving part 300 includes a second driver 310 and a second shaft 320 driven by the second driver 310;
[0041] A mounting bracket 400, connected to the free end of the first shaft 220, and cup positions are provided on the mounting bracket 400 corresponding to the cup holder positions 110;
[0042] A trigger bracket 500, connected to the free end of the second shaft 320, and a trigger button 510 is provided on the trigger bracket 500 corresponding to the switch 011 of the cup holder 010 installed in the cup holder position 110;
[0043] A controller, controlling the operation of the first linear drive unit 200 and the second linear drive unit 300;
[0044] Among them, the first shaft 220 includes a first sub-shaft 221 and a second sub-shaft 222, the first sub-shaft 221 is connected to the first drive 210, the second sub-shaft 222 slides in the length direction and is connected to the first sub-shaft 221 in a split and combined manner, and a first pressure sensor 600 is arranged on the end face of the first sub-shaft 221 near the second sub-shaft 222 or on the end face of the second sub-shaft 222 near the first sub-shaft 221.
[0045] In the prior art, the life test of the cup holder needs to test multiple samples at the same time, so the structure is complicated and the system for obtaining the cup holder status feedback is also complicated.
[0046] In the present invention, the vehicle cup holder testing device is used to test the cup holder 010. The cup holder 010 is provided with a switch 011. The switch 011 can be located at the top, side or inner circumference of the cup holder 010. A plurality of cup holder positions 110 are provided on the upper surface of the base 100. The cup holder 010 to be tested is installed in the cup holder position 110. The specific cup holder position 110 can simulate the fixing method of the cup holder 010 during normal use, so as to realize the in-situ test simulation of the cup holder 010 as much as possible.
[0047] The first linear drive unit 200 is provided corresponding to the plurality of cup holder positions 110 and includes a first drive 210 and a first shaft 220 driven by the first drive 210. The first linear drive unit 200 may be pneumatically driven, hydraulically driven, motor driven, etc. The purpose of the first linear drive unit 200 is to simulate the pressing of the cup body so that the cup holder 010 is in a compressed state.
[0048] The second linear drive unit 300 is provided corresponding to the plurality of cup holder positions 110 and includes a second drive 310 and a second shaft 320 driven by the second drive 310. The second linear drive unit 300 may be pneumatically driven, hydraulically driven, motor driven, etc. The purpose of the first linear drive unit 200 is to trigger the switch 011, so that the cup holder 010 is in a released state.
[0049] The mounting bracket 400 is connected to the free end of the first shaft 220, and a cup position is provided on the mounting bracket 400 corresponding to the cup holder position 110. The cup position is used to mount a cup or a cup mold 700 [taking the mold 700 as an example], so that the mold 700 is combined with and released from the cup holder 010 during the operation of the first linear drive unit 200.
[0050] The trigger bracket 500 is connected to the free end of the second shaft 320. A trigger button 510 is provided on the trigger bracket 500 corresponding to the switch 011 of the cup holder 010 installed in the cup holder position 110. During the operation of the second linear drive unit 300, the trigger button 510 acts on the switch 011 on the cup holder 010. For example, when the mounting bracket 400 moves to the bottommost position and returns, the second linear drive unit 300 starts to operate. At this time, the trigger button 510 acts on the switch 011 of the cup holder 010, thus completing a test cycle.
[0051] The controller controls the operations of the first linear drive unit 200 and the second linear drive unit 300. The working mode of the controller can be completed through a preset program in a single-chip microcomputer, or through real-time detection and control by corresponding sensors, or a combination of the two control methods.
[0052] The first shaft 220 includes a first sub-shaft 221 and a second sub-shaft 222. The first sub-shaft 221 is connected to the first drive 210. The second sub-shaft 222 slides in the length direction and is detachably connected to the first sub-shaft 221. The way the second sub-shaft 222 is combined with the first sub-shaft 221 can be diverse. For example, a connection structure is provided on the second sub-shaft 222 to form a sliding connection with the first sub-shaft 221. A first pressure sensor 600 is provided on the end face of the first sub-shaft 221 near the second sub-shaft 222 or on the end face of the second sub-shaft 222 near the first sub-shaft 221. By means of the first pressure sensor 600 on the first shaft 220, the states of multiple cup holders 010 are monitored simultaneously. For example, when testing 4 cup holders 010 simultaneously, if the maximum pressure sensing data obtained by the first pressure sensor 600 suddenly becomes about 75% of the previous value, it can be inferred that one cup holder 010 has not returned to its position. If the maximum pressure sensing data obtained by the first pressure sensor 600 suddenly increases, it can be inferred that there is an abnormality in the pressing function of the cup holder 010.
[0053] In summary, the first linear drive unit 200 drives the first shaft 220 to expand and contract. Multiple molds 700 on the mounting bracket 400 are combined with and released from multiple cup holders 010 to complete the pressing action; when the mounting bracket 400 moves to the bottommost position and returns, the second linear drive unit 300 starts to operate. At this time, the trigger button 510 acts on the switch 011 of the cup holder 010, and the state of the cup holder 010 is switched to released, thus completing a test cycle; the second sub-shaft 222 slides in the length direction and is detachably connected to the first sub-shaft 221. By monitoring the force between the second sub-shaft 222 and the first sub-shaft 221 through the first pressure sensor 600 on the first shaft 220, the states of multiple cup holders 010 are monitored simultaneously.
[0054] In one embodiment, the second shaft 320 includes a third sub-shaft and a fourth sub-shaft. The third sub-shaft is connected to the second drive 310. The fourth sub-shaft slides in the length direction and is detachably connected to the third sub-shaft. A second pressure sensor is provided on the end face of the third sub-shaft near the fourth sub-shaft or on the end face of the fourth sub-shaft near the third sub-shaft.
[0055] In this embodiment, similar to the setting of the first shaft 220 on the aforementioned first linear drive unit 200, the second shaft 320 is also designed similarly, and a second pressure sensor is also introduced, so that the working state of the switch 011 on the cup holder 010 can also be monitored. Specifically, for the structural form and working mode of the second shaft 320, refer to the first shaft 220, which will not be elaborated here.
[0056] In one embodiment, a first travel switch 011 is provided on the base 100 corresponding to the mounting bracket 400.
[0057] In this embodiment, the driving stroke of the first linear drive unit 200 is limited by the first travel switch 011. Specifically, the model of the first travel switch 011 can be various and is not specifically limited. The position of the first travel switch 011 on the base 100 is convenient.
[0058] In one embodiment, a second travel switch 011 is provided on the base 100 corresponding to the trigger bracket 500.
[0059] In this embodiment, the driving stroke of the second linear drive unit 300 is limited by the second travel switch 011. Specifically, the model of the second travel switch 011 can be various and is not specifically limited. The position of the second travel switch 011 on the base 100 is convenient.
[0060] In one embodiment, the first linear drive unit 200 and the second linear drive unit 300 are pneumatic types.
[0061] In this embodiment, compressed air circuits are provided in most workshop environments, so it is convenient to drive in a pneumatic manner.
[0062] Refer to Figure 1 , in one embodiment, the first linear drive unit 200 and the second linear drive unit 300 are both installed on the base 100.
[0063] In this embodiment, the first linear drive unit 200 and the second linear drive unit 300 are both installed on the base 100, so that the structure of the entire vehicle cup holder test device is more compact and more convenient to use.
[0064] In one embodiment, the fixed position of the second linear drive unit 300 on the base 100 is adjustable.
[0065] In this embodiment, by improving the position flexibility of the second linear driving part 300, the second linear driving part 300 can adapt to the switches 011 of various types of cup holders 010. For example, if the switch 011 is located at the top, side or even inside of the cup holder 010, it can be adapted through the adjustment of the second linear driving part 300.
[0066] In one embodiment, the height position of the first linear driving part 200 on the base 100 is adjustable.
[0067] In this embodiment, the position of the entire first linear driving part 200 is adjustable, so that the working efficiency of the entire first linear driving part 200 can be adjusted and improved. For example, by adjusting the position of the first linear driving part 200 to minimize the telescopic amount of the second shaft 320, the test process can be completed. For example, after the cup holder 010 is installed in the cup holder position 110, the cup position extends into the cup holder 010 to improve the test efficiency.
[0068] Referring to Figure 1 , in one embodiment, a cup-shaped mold 700 is detachably connected to the cup position.
[0069] In the foregoing embodiment, the test process can be realized by fixing corresponding cups or bottles on the cup position. In this embodiment, a cup-shaped mold 700 is arranged and paired at the cup position of the vehicle cup holder test device, and various-shaped water cups are simulated through the mold 700. The shape of the mold 700 can be diverse to simulate various-shaped water cups or water bottles; and the material is preferably various types of polymers.
[0070] In one embodiment, the cup holder position 110 is detachably connected to the base 100.
[0071] In this embodiment, due to the detachable characteristic of the cup holder position 110, different cup holders 010 can be tested by replacing the cup holder position 110.
[0072] In summary, for the vehicle cup holder testing device provided by the present utility model, the first linear drive unit 200 drives the first shaft 220 to expand and contract, and multiple molds 700 on the mounting bracket 400 are combined with and released from multiple cup holders 010 to complete the pressing action; when the mounting bracket 400 moves to the bottommost position and returns, the second linear drive unit 300 starts to work. At this time, the trigger button 510 acts on the switch 011 of the cup holder 010, and the state of the cup holder 010 is switched to the released state, thus completing a test cycle; the second sub-shaft 222 slides in the length direction and is detachably connected to the first sub-shaft 221. The acting force between the second sub-shaft 222 and the first sub-shaft 221 is monitored by the first pressure sensor 600 on the first shaft 220, so as to realize the monitoring of the states of multiple cup holders 010 simultaneously.
