Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of electric vehicle detection, in particular to a whole vehicle rain and water wading test device. Background Art
[0002] Electric vehicles are powered by electric motors and equipped with key electrical equipment such as power batteries and controllers. This requires the entire vehicle to possess excellent insulation performance. However, in actual use, electric vehicles are inevitably exposed to rain or driving on flooded roads. If the vehicle's sealing performance is poor, driving through water will significantly weaken the insulation and voltage resistance of its live components. Therefore, it is particularly important to conduct rigorous water spray and water wading tests on electric vehicles before they leave the factory. These tests are designed to simulate actual water wading environments, facilitate leakage detection of electric vehicles, and comprehensively evaluate their performance and safety in water wading conditions.
[0003] Traditional methods for testing electric vehicles in rain and water often involve digging a canal at the test site and filling it with water to simulate a wading environment. The test then relies on human riders to conduct the test. However, this testing method is not only inefficient, resulting in unnecessary waste of manpower and water resources, but is also severely limited by the conditions of the test site, making it difficult to fully reflect the performance of electric vehicles in real-world wading and rainy environments. First, human rider testing is not only labor-intensive but can also lead to unstable test results due to human factors. Differences in rider strength, speed, and reaction time can all affect the test results, making it difficult for the test data to accurately reflect the actual performance of the electric vehicle. Second, traditional testing methods also have shortcomings in terms of safety and diversity. Due to the limitations of human riders, the test process may not fully consider the performance of the electric vehicle under extreme conditions, making it impossible to fully evaluate the safety performance of the electric vehicle.
[0004] In addition, due to the limitations of test sites and equipment, many current test devices are designed for a single test environment and cannot simulate both rain and wading conditions at the same time, which affects the integrity of the test results. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In response to the problems existing in the existing technology, the utility model provides a whole-vehicle rain and water testing equipment, which can realize the simultaneous implementation of rain and water testing, avoiding the tedious process of performing two tests separately in traditional testing methods, and is suitable for testing electric vehicles of different sizes and types, with strong versatility and applicability.

A clamping rod for fixing the front wheel is provided in the wading trough at the position of the front wheel roller;
[0007] A water spraying assembly for spraying electric vehicles is provided on one side of the wading trough. The water spraying assembly includes a water spraying nozzle, a variable frequency water pump and a water tank. The variable frequency water pump is connected to the water tank, and the water spraying nozzle is connected to the variable frequency water pump through a water pipe.

The mounting bracket is secured to the upper end surface of the frame via the fasteners and the fixing grooves. This design simplifies the installation and commissioning of the rear rollers. Testers can easily adjust the position of the mounting bracket as needed to adjust the wheelbase and accommodate testing of electric vehicles of different sizes.
[0011] Furthermore, the insertion holes are provided in plurality and are evenly spaced along the length of the mounting portion. By inserting the insertion holes at different positions, the device can adapt to electric vehicle front wheels of different sizes, thereby meeting a wider range of testing needs.
[0012] Furthermore, guide columns are provided on both sides of the screw rod, and the connecting portion of the lifting bracket is slidably connected to the guide columns.

This ensures that the electric vehicle remains stable during the test, avoiding shaking or deviation caused by water impact or uneven ground, which helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of the test.
[0014] Furthermore, a water entry slope is provided inside the wading trough at the water inlet and outlet sides, and a ramp connected to the water entry slope is provided outside the wading trough at the water inlet and outlet sides. The provision of the water entry slope and ramp allows the electric vehicle to smoothly transition when entering and exiting the wading trough, avoiding the shock and jolt caused by sudden entry or exit from the water surface.

This helps to test the sealing and insulation performance of electric vehicles in rainy environments. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The front and rear wheel rollers 2 and 3 ensure the vehicle remains stable while wading, simulating its rolling motion. The water spray assembly, comprising a spray nozzle 5-1, a variable-frequency water pump 5-2, and a water tank 5-3, simulates rain impacts of varying intensities and angles, allowing the entire electric vehicle to be tested under rain. This helps test the sealing and insulation properties of electric vehicles in rainy conditions.
[0030] Furthermore, a ball screw assembly 9 is provided in the wading trough 1 on the side of the front wheel roller 2. The screw rod in the ball screw assembly 9 is vertically provided on the side wall of the wading trough 1. The upper end of the screw rod extends upward out of the wading trough 1 and is provided with an adjusting hand wheel 10.

Two clamping rods 4 are provided, each inserted into the socket 11-3 of the mounting portions 11-1 on either side of the front wheel to clamp the front wheel. Driven by the ball screw assembly 9, the lifting bracket 11 can precisely adjust the height of the clamping rods 4, ensuring a tight grip on the front wheel of the electric vehicle. This stable clamping method not only ensures the stability of the electric vehicle during testing but also improves the safety and reliability of the test.
[0032] Preferably, a plurality of the plug holes 11-3 are provided, and the plurality of the plug holes 11-3 are equidistantly distributed along the length direction of the mounting portion 11-1.
