[0002] A coupler refers to the hook at both ends of a train car body or locomotive, which has the functions of connection, traction and buffering. A coupler is a vehicle component used to connect locomotives and vehicles or between vehicles, transmit traction force and impact force, and keep a certain distance between vehicles.

[0003] At present, the forces acting on the coupler during train operation are relatively complex, including alternating traction force, random compression force and impact force. Especially during shunting operations, the coupler has to bear a very large impact force. Therefore, the coupler is a vulnerable part and is prone to failures such as deformation and wear. So after production and assembly and after maintenance, in order to test the product performance, a coupling test is required.

[0004] In the prior art, the Chinese utility model patent with the application number CN201820813239.4 discloses a coupler connection test bench, including a bottom plate. A rectangular groove is opened at the top of the bottom plate. At one end of the top of the bottom plate, fixed rods symmetrically arranged and arranged along the length direction of the bottom plate are installed. The fixed rods are distributed on both sides of the groove. A support plate is slidably connected to the top of the two fixed rods. Symmetrically arranged first mounting plates are slidably connected to the top of the support plate. A fixing plate is welded on the side of the two first mounting plates close to each other. A coupler body is installed on one side of the fixing plate along the horizontal direction. At the other end of the top of the bottom plate, a mounting seat is welded.
