[0002] An automobile collision test device is a device used to test the collision safety performance of an automobile. It mainly consists of a vehicle impact area, a vehicle support system, a data acquisition system, etc. During the test, the test vehicle is accelerated to a certain speed and then impacts an obstacle in the impact area to simulate a real vehicle collision situation.

[0003] The utility model patent with the patent authorization announcement number CN220690476U discloses an acceleration track for automobile collision experiments. By setting a sliding frame, a traction accelerator, a movable frame, a traction frame, etc., it is convenient to install and use for different automobiles, and to traction-accelerate the automobile so as to conduct a collision experiment. By setting a sliding rod, a sliding block, a damping construction damper and a support plate, it is convenient to protect the automobile during the experiment. By setting a contact sensor, it is convenient to assist the staff in conducting the experiment operation.

[0004] However, there are still some disadvantages in the actual use of the above device. More obviously, although the sliding block can push the automobile to move, when the automobile needs to be braked when it reaches the set speed, the sliding block will continue to slide due to inertia, and thus will continue to push the automobile, which will have a certain impact on the accuracy of the automobile collision test result.

[0005] Therefore, it is very necessary to invent a braking system for an automobile collision test bench based on a high-frequency digital valve to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0023] For descriptive purposes, the present disclosure may use spatial relative terms such as "under", "below", "beneath", "lower", "above", "over", "upper", and "side (e.g., as in "side wall")" to describe the relationship of one component to another (other) component as shown in the figures. In addition to the orientation depicted in the figures, the spatial relative terms are also intended to encompass different orientations of the device during use, operation, and / or manufacture. For example, if the device in the figures is flipped, a component described as "under" or "beneath" another component or feature will then be positioned "above" the other component or feature. Thus, the exemplary term "under" can encompass both the "above" and "below" orientations. Additionally, the device may be otherwise positioned (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations), and accordingly, the spatial relative descriptors used herein are to be interpreted.

[0024] As Figures 1-4 shown, a braking system of an automotive collision test bench based on a high-frequency digital valve in the present disclosure, the system includes a traveling track 1 and an ejection device. The ejection device includes a slider 2 and a baffle 21. The baffle 21 is used to connect with the tested vehicle to drive the vehicle to conduct a collision test. The ejection device is used to move in the length direction of the traveling track 1. A T-shaped chute 11 is provided on the surface of the traveling track 1 along the length direction. The slider 2 is slidably installed in the T-shaped chute 11. A plurality of braking locking plate members 5 are provided on both sides inside the T-shaped chute 11. A plurality of position sensors 7 are uniformly fixedly installed at the bottom of the T-shaped chute 11 along the length direction. A pushing mechanism 6 for controlling the braking locking plate members 5 to approach or move away from the slider 2 is fixedly installed on both sides of the traveling track 1. The position sensors 7 control the start and stop of the corresponding position pushing mechanism 6 through a PLC.

[0025] Among them, the PLC can adopt Siemens S7-300 PLC, which can be used for direct control of the device, can monitor a plurality of subordinate programmable controllers, is also suitable for the control of medium or large control systems, and can meet the applications with medium performance requirements, so as to realize the control of a plurality of pushing mechanisms 6.

[0026] In this embodiment, a control box 4 is fixedly installed at one end of the bottom of the traveling track 1. A winch, a PLC, and a high-frequency digital valve are installed in the control box 4. The winch is fixedly connected with the slider 2 through a cable 3. The cable 3 is located in the T-shaped chute 11, and a roller is provided at one end of the cable 3 extending out of the T-shaped chute 11. The roller is used to support the cable 3 to facilitate its sliding. The position sensors 7 control the start and stop of the pushing mechanism 6 through the PLC and the high-frequency digital valve. The high-frequency digital valve module has an extremely high response speed and can quickly respond to control signals to realize the rapid braking of the pushing mechanism 6.

[0027] In this embodiment, the pushing mechanism 6 is a cylinder or an oil cylinder.

[0028] In this embodiment, the braking and locking plate member 5 includes a friction plate 51 and a steel plate 52. The friction plate 51 is fixedly installed on one side of the steel plate 52. The output shaft of the pushing mechanism 6 is inserted into the T-shaped chute 11 and fixedly connected to the steel plate 52.

[0029] Further, to increase the friction force, in this embodiment, braking grooves 22 are formed on both sides of the slider 2 at positions flush with the friction plate 51. The friction plate 51 can be attached to the inside of the braking grooves 22 to brake the slider 2.

[0030] In this embodiment, the position sensor 7 is a proximity switch, and the proximity switch is a photoelectric proximity switch: it uses the principle of the photoelectric effect for detection. A groove 12 is formed at the bottom of the T-shaped chute 11 along the length direction. The position sensor 7 is fixedly installed in the groove 12. The proximity switch can detect whether there is a slider 2 passing above by emitting infrared rays, so as to determine the specific position of the slider 2.

[0031] Further, to ensure the smoothness of the slider 2 sliding in the T-shaped chute 11, in this embodiment, a plurality of idler rollers 8 are rotatably installed at the top and bottom of both sides inside the T-shaped chute 11. The idler rollers 8 are in rolling contact with the slider 2.

[0032] The working principles of the above PLC and position sensor are prior arts and will not be described in detail here.

[0033] The specific operation steps are as follows: By setting the rotation speed of the winch to wind in the cable 3, the speed of the vehicle is controlled. When braking is required at a certain speed, the winch only needs to stop working at this speed. At this time, the position sensor 7 can monitor the specific position of the slider 2 moving, so as to control the corresponding pushing mechanism 6 at the position to start through the PLC. The pushing mechanism 6 will push the braking and locking plate member 5 to quickly approach the slider 2. The slider 2 can be braked under the clamping of the two braking and locking plate members 5, so as to prevent the slider 2 from continuing to move forward under the action of inertia and ensure the accuracy of the collision test.
