Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electromagnetic switch detection, in particular to a service life testing device for an electromagnetic switch. Background Technique

[0002] Simply put, an electromagnetic switch is a combination of an electromagnet and a switch. When the electromagnet coil is energized, an electromagnetic attraction force is generated, and the movable iron core pushes or pulls the switch contact to close, thereby connecting the controlled circuit. Electromagnetic switches are widely used in various industries. In the automotive industry, the functions of an electromagnetic switch are as follows: on the one hand, the movable iron core is moved by the electromagnetic attraction force to push or pull the pinion of the starting motor to engage with the flywheel gear, and on the other hand, the switch contact is pushed to close, so that the starting motor is energized and runs, and then drives the engine to start and run.

[0003] When developing new products of electromagnetic switches, a parameter that needs attention is the service life of the electromagnetic switch. Suppose the specified service life of the electromagnetic switch is 20,000 starts. If a failure occurs during the 8,000th start of the electromagnetic switch and it cannot work properly, it means that the electromagnetic switch fails to meet the life test requirements. When conducting the life test on the electromagnetic switch, the current method is to simply simulate the use environment of the electromagnetic switch, connect the electromagnetic switch to be tested with the corresponding starting motor and flywheel. On the one hand, when testing electromagnetic switches of different models, the pinions of their corresponding starting motors may have different sizes, and each time the installation positions of various components need to be redesigned according to the size. On the other hand, only one electromagnetic switch to be tested can be tested each time, and the test efficiency is low, which cannot meet the existing work requirements.

Detailed Embodiment

[0018] To make the technical objectives, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present utility model clearer, the following further describes the technical solutions of the present utility model with reference to the Figure 1-2 accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Embodiment

[0019] An electromagnetic switch life test device includes a test bench 1, on which a support frame and a flywheel 3 are installed. A starting motor 4 and an electromagnetic switch 5 to be tested are installed on the support frame. The support frame includes a vertical plate 21 and a horizontal plate 22. The starting motor 4 and the electromagnetic switch 5 to be tested are installed on the vertical plate 21. The axial direction of the starting motor 4 is parallel to the axial direction of the flywheel 3, and the flywheel 3 is installed at the rear side of the support frame. An X-direction moving mechanism for adjusting the left and right positions of the support frame and a Y-direction moving mechanism for adjusting the front and rear positions of the support frame are further provided on the test bench 1.

[0020] The working principle is as follows: After the electromagnetic switch 5 to be tested and the starting motor 4 are powered on, the pinion of the starting motor 4 extends under the action of the electromagnetic switch and meshes with the flywheel 3, driving the flywheel 3 to rotate. This completes one start-up action of the electromagnetic switch 5 to be tested. The life test of the electromagnetic switch needs to repeat this start-up action until the preset service life is reached. For different electromagnetic switch products, the specifications of the corresponding starting motor 4 will also change, manifested as: different pinion diameters and different strokes of the pinion extending under the action of the electromagnetic switch. At this time, by adjusting the left and right positions and the front and rear positions of the support frame through the X-direction moving mechanism and the Y-direction moving mechanism, it can be adapted to the diameter and the extending stroke of the pinion of the starting motor 4. When powered on, the pinion of the starting motor 4 and the flywheel 3 can smoothly complete the meshing and carry out the test work.

[0021] Further, as one embodiment of the present utility model, the X-direction moving mechanism includes a first slide rail 61, a sliding seat 62, and a first lead screw nut transmission mechanism. The first slide rail 61 is fixed on the test bench 1 in the left-right horizontal direction. The sliding seat 62 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 61. The first lead screw nut transmission mechanism includes a first lead screw shaft 63, a first nut 64, and a first lead screw support seat 65. The first lead screw support seat 65 is fixed to the test bench 1. The first nut 64 is fixedly connected to the sliding seat 62. The first lead screw shaft 63 is arranged in the left-right horizontal direction and is supported by the first lead screw support seat 65. One end of the first lead screw shaft 63 is connected to a first driving member 66. In this embodiment, the first driving member 66 is a handwheel. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the support frame through the X-direction moving mechanism, rotate the handwheel, and the support frame can be driven to move left and right through the first lead screw nut transmission mechanism, so that the diameter of the pinion of the starting motor 4 is adapted to the flywheel 3. In other embodiments, the first driving member 66 can also be an electric rotating device.

[0022] Further, as one embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 2 shown, the Y-direction moving mechanism includes a second slide rail 71 and a second lead screw nut transmission mechanism. The second slide rail 71 is fixed on the sliding seat 62 in the front-rear horizontal direction. The cross plate 22 is slidably connected to the second slide rail 71. The second lead screw nut transmission mechanism includes a second lead screw shaft 72, a second nut 73, and a second lead screw support seat 74. The second lead screw support seat 74 is fixed to the sliding seat 62. The second nut 73 is fixedly connected to the cross plate 22. The second lead screw shaft 72 is arranged in the front-rear horizontal direction and is supported by the second lead screw support seat 74. One end of the second lead screw shaft 72 is connected to a second driving member 75. In this embodiment, the first driving member 66 is a handwheel. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the support frame through the Y-direction moving mechanism, rotate the handwheel, and the support frame can be driven to move back and forth through the second lead screw nut transmission mechanism, so that the extension stroke of the pinion of the starting motor 4 is adapted to the position of the flywheel 3.

[0023] Further, as one embodiment of the present utility model, two support frames are symmetrically arranged on the test bench 1, and the flywheel 3 is located behind the two support frames. When performing the life test on the electromagnetic switch, it is necessary to repeatedly repeat the starting action of the electromagnetic switch, and there needs to be a certain gap between every two starting actions. By setting two support frames, two electromagnetic switches 5 to be tested can be respectively installed, and the life tests of the two electromagnetic switches 5 to be tested can be alternately carried out, making full use of the test gap of the electromagnetic switches 5 to be tested.

[0024] Further, as one embodiment of the present utility model, a protective cover 8 is also provided on the test bench 1. The protective cover 8 is located behind the support frame. The rotation of the pinion of the starting motor 4 and the flywheel 3 are both within the protective cover 8, improving the safety of the test process.

[0025] Further, as one embodiment of the present utility model, it further includes a heat dissipation device, which includes a fan 9 and an air duct 10. The air outlet of the air duct 10 faces the starting motor 4. Since the starting motor 4 runs frequently and generates heat, the heat dissipation device can take away a certain amount of heat, facilitating the smooth progress of the test process.

[0026] Further, as one embodiment of the present utility model, protective doors 11 are provided around the test bench 1, further improving test safety. The protective doors 11 are of a grid structure, facilitating observation.
