Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a test device, in particular to a fatigue test device for rubber nodes under combined working conditions. Technical Background

[0002] The rubber node is installed on the bogie of a rail transit train, and can transmit the longitudinal traction force and braking force between the bogie and the car body, and provide the deflection deformation caused by traction, braking and the train turning, as well as the relative rotational movement between the car body and the rear addition caused by the rotation of the bogie. Therefore, the radial fatigue, deflection fatigue and torsional fatigue properties of the rubber node are crucial to the product itself. Therefore, before mass supply, it is necessary to test the fatigue performance of the product to ensure that the performance of the product meets the requirements.

[0003] The utility model patent with the publication number of CN218098706U discloses a fatigue test loading device for rubber nodes, including a frame. Two oil cylinders are arranged in parallel at the upper end of the frame. On the platform below the frame, a pair of clamping blocks are symmetrically supported by a shaft seat and a short shaft respectively below the first oil cylinder; Mandrel sleeves are sleeved at both ends of the rubber node; A cross beam is connected to the lower end of the first oil cylinder through a first connecting shaft. A pair of clamping plates are respectively connected to both ends of the cross beam through flat pin shafts. Two sets of rolling bearings are respectively arranged between each pair of clamping plates. The outer end of the mandrel sleeve is connected to the clamping plate through a flat pin; Two limiting baffles are symmetrically arranged on the platform on both sides of a pair of clamping blocks. The lower parts of the clamping plates are respectively inserted into the corresponding limiting baffles, and the outer edges of the rolling bearings are abutted against the inner walls of the limiting baffles; A transmission shaft is arranged on the platform. One end of the transmission shaft is connected to the corresponding clamping block through a short shaft, and the other end is movably connected to the second oil cylinder through a crank-link mechanism.

[0004] The above device can apply a radial load to the rubber node clamped between a pair of clamping blocks through the expansion and contraction of the first oil cylinder, and can apply a deflection load to the rubber node to be tested through the expansion and contraction of the second oil cylinder, so as to realize the simultaneous action of the radial load and the deflection load on the product itself. However, it cannot realize the combined working condition loading of radial, deflection and torsion on the rubber node, and there is still a certain difference from the actual operating condition of the rubber node, resulting in a certain deviation in the product test results.

[0005] At the same time, due to the limited stroke of the crank-link mechanism, the deflection of the rubber node under some working conditions cannot be realized; moreover, when a large-angle deflection movement is required, due to the movement track of the crank-link mechanism, there will be a certain angle offset of the cylinder rod of the oil cylinder connected to it, which will cause damage to the cylinder rod and affect the service life of the second oil cylinder. Summary of the Utility Model

[0010] On the test platform, a fatigue test tooling is arranged directly below the vertical loading module, and is used to place the rubber joint to be tested.

[0011] The fatigue test tooling includes a single-axis linear slide arranged on the test platform. A lower support plate is supported on the slide plate of the single-axis linear slide through a disc. On the upper surface of the lower support plate, a transmission plate is installed through two groups of linear sliding components. A support disc is arranged on the transmission plate and fixed by a pressing plate, and is used to support the rubber joint to be tested. A connecting seat is fixed on one side of the transmission plate and is connected to the output end of the horizontal loading oil cylinder.

[0012] The fatigue test tooling also has two groups of clamps. The axes of the two groups of clamps are vertically arranged up and down, and the two groups of clamps are connected to each other by a vertically arranged screw rod to facilitate the installation of the upper and lower rubber joints.

[0013] As a further preference, the vertical loading module includes a guide block. A transmission shaft is slidably installed on the guide block through a linear bearing.

A bolt adjusting assembly is provided on the bottom plate in front of the slide plate, and one end of the bolt of the bolt adjusting assembly is connected to the slide plate. Strip-shaped long holes are respectively provided on both sides of the bottom plate to facilitate fixing on the test platform.

[0016] As a further preference, a circular groove is provided on the bottom surface of the lower supporting plate and sleeved on the upper end of the disc through clearance fit.

[0017] As a further preference, the linear sliding assembly includes a sliding shaft, and both ends of the sliding shaft are respectively fixed on the lower supporting plate through rolling bearings and bearing seats. A sliding seat is mounted on the sliding shaft through a linear bearing, and the sliding seat is fixed on the bottom surface of the transmission plate.

[0018] As a further preference, a conical groove is provided at the center of the upper surface of the transmission plate, and a conical boss is provided on the bottom surface of the support disc and inserted into the conical groove through clearance fit.

Two groups of jigs that are vertically arranged up and down and connected to each other by vertically arranged screws clamp the upper and lower two rubber nodes, which can better restore the actual operating conditions of the product and make the test results more accurate. By connecting the two groups of jigs with vertically arranged screws, it can be adjusted according to the requirements of the center distance of different rubber nodes, so that this test equipment can cover most rubber nodes and meet the actual installation requirements.

[0025] 4. Through the single-axis linear slide on the test platform, the basic origin when the horizontal loading oil cylinder drives the transmission plate to reciprocate can be adjusted. Description of the Drawings
