The embodiments are chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the present utility model and its practical application, and to enable those of ordinary skill in the art to understand the present utility model and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for specific purposes.

[0018] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5, in this embodiment, a testing device for an aircraft landing gear shock strut is provided, which includes a base 1 and a piston rod 2. An insertion post 18 is installed on the upper end surface of the base 1, and the insertion post 18 is installed at the bottom of the cylinder barrel 11 in a plug-in manner. The piston rod 2 is installed in the cylinder barrel 11 by means of sliding fit. Fixing grooves are symmetrically arranged in the front and rear on the upper end surface of the base 1. First sliders 12 are installed in the fixing grooves by means of sliding fit. An L-shaped frame is installed on the upper end surface of the first slider 12, and a limiting ring 13 is installed at the other end of the L-shaped frame. A placement groove is formed on the upper end surface of the first slider 12, and a pressing plate 14 is arranged in the placement groove. First hydraulic cylinders 15 are symmetrically installed on the left and right of the upper end surface of the base 1. A connecting plate 16 is installed at the output end of the first hydraulic cylinder 15, and the piston rod 2 is arranged at the bottom of the connecting plate 16. During operation, the shock strut is composed of the cylinder barrel 11 and the piston rod 2. The shock strut is placed on the base 1, and the insertion post 18 performs positioning processing on it. The first hydraulic cylinder 15 is started to drive the piston rod 2 to move up and down, so as to perform testing processing on the shock strut. The limiting ring 13 is closely attached to the outer side wall of the cylinder barrel 11 to prevent the shock strut from shaking during the testing process, further improving the stability of the device and preventing it from tipping over and causing injury to personnel. The pressing plate 14 performs limiting and fixing processing on the first slider 12 to prevent it from sliding relatively.

[0019] The pressing plate 14 is screwed to the base 1 through a limiting rod 17, and the limiting rods 17 are symmetrically arranged in the front and rear of the base 1. During operation, the structure of the limiting rod 17 is adopted to further ensure the stability of the placement of the pressing plate 14 and prevent it from accidentally popping out due to vibration.

[0020] A connecting column is installed in the middle of the upper end surface of the connecting plate 16. The connecting column is connected to the upper end surface of the piston rod 2 through a limiting bolt 19. A top column 21 is installed on the upper end surface of the limiting bolt 19. Slots are formed on the outer side wall of the top column 21. A movable plate is installed on the upper end surface of the connecting plate 16 by means of sliding fit. A plug rod 22 is installed on the right end surface of the movable plate, and the plug rod 22 is arranged in the slot in a plug-in manner. A top plate 23 is installed on the upper end surface of the top column 21. A bottom groove is formed at the bottom of the top plate 23. A spring rod 24 is installed on the outer side wall of the plug rod 22, and the spring rod 24 is installed in the bottom groove in a plug-in manner. During operation, the structure of the limiting bolt 19 is adopted to facilitate the removal of the shock strut for replacement after the testing is completed. And through the structure of the plug rod 22, the limiting bolt 19 is prevented from rotating during the testing process, resulting in the separation of the connecting column and the piston rod 2. The spring rod 24 performs positioning processing on the plug rod 22.

[0021] During specific operation, the shock absorber strut consists of a cylinder barrel 11 and a piston rod 2. The shock absorber strut is placed on the base table 1, and the plug post 18 positions it. The first hydraulic cylinder 15 is activated to drive the piston rod 2 to move up and down, thereby testing the shock absorber strut. The limiting ring 13 closely adheres to the outer side wall of the cylinder barrel 11 to prevent the shock absorber strut from shaking during the test, further improving the stability of the device and avoiding tipping over and causing injury to personnel. The pressing plate 14 limits and fixes the first slider 12 to prevent relative sliding.
