[0027] The following is combined with Figure 1 To the attached Figure 6 The principles and features of the present invention are described, and the examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0028] A test bench for calibrating proportional valves, such as Figure 1 — Figure 6 As shown, it includes: an airtight component 1, a pressing component 3, a wrench component 4 and a support base component 5 that carries the airtight component 1 and the pressing component 3. The device is also provided with a touch screen for controlling and displaying the test process.
[0029] The airtight assembly 1 is provided with an airtight base 6 that supports the proportional valve 2. The upper end surface of the airtight base 6 is provided with a socket 12 that matches the lower end of the proportional valve 2. The lower end of the proportional valve 2 can be vertically placed in the socket 12. To maintain a seal and prevent air leakage, a sealing ring 21 is provided between the socket 12 and the proportional valve 2. In this embodiment, the sealing ring 21 is an O-ring. The airtight base 6 is also provided with an air inlet channel 7 that communicates with the air inlet 201 of the proportional valve 2 and an exhaust pipe 8 that communicates with the air outlet 202 of the proportional valve 2. The air inlet 201 is externally connected to the air inlet pipe. The air inlet pipe is provided with an automatic pressure regulating valve for regulating gas pressure and an on / off solenoid valve for controlling the gas flow. The exhaust pipe 8 is provided with a pressure sensor 18 and an exhaust valve 19.
[0030] The clamping assembly 3 is provided with a pressure plate 9 for clamping the proportional valve 2. The pressure plate 9 is located above the proportional valve 2. A first slide rail 13 is provided between the pressure plate 9 and the vertical plate 501 of the support seat assembly 5. A cylinder 14 is provided at one end of the pressure plate 9 to drive its displacement. The rod end of the cylinder 14 is connected to the pressure plate 9, and the cylinder body of the cylinder 14 is connected to the top plate 502 of the support seat assembly 5. The pressure plate 9 can be displaced along the first slide rail 13 by the action of the cylinder 14. During the loading and unloading process of the proportional valve 2, the cylinder 14 drives the pressure plate 9 to move along the first slide rail 13 to the end away from the proportional valve 2. After the proportional valve 2 is installed in place, the cylinder 14 drives the pressure plate 9 to move along the first slide rail 13 to the end close to the proportional valve 2, and contacts the proportional valve 2 to clamp it to prevent displacement during the test.
[0031] The wrench assembly 4 is fixed to the pressure plate 9 and includes a wrench head 11 driven by a motor 10. This wrench head 11 penetrates the pressure plate 9 and acts on the adjusting screw 203 at the end of the proportional valve 2. In this embodiment, the wrench head 11 has a flat head that mates with the flat end of the adjusting screw 203. To precisely control the torque applied to the adjusting screw 203, the motor 10 is a servo motor.
[0032] In order to prevent the wrench head 11 from vibrating during rotation and failing to align with the "slotted edge" of the adjusting screw 203, thereby causing external damage to the proportional valve 2, a guide sleeve 20 is provided on the outside of the wrench head 11. The guide sleeve 20 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 9, and the guide sleeve 20 plays a role in straightening the wrench head 11.
[0033] In order to further enable the wrench head 11 to act on the "slot" of the adjusting screw 203, a second slide rail 15 and a limit rod 16 are further provided between the lower end surface of the airtight base 6 and the bottom plate 503 of the support seat assembly 5. The limit rod 16 is located on the side of the airtight base 6 close to the vertical plate 501 and passes through the vertical plate 501. The limit rod 16 is provided with an external thread, and a set of nuts 17 are provided on each end surface of the vertical plate 501. Under the action of external force, the airtight base 6 moves along the second slide rail 15 until the adjusting screw 203 of the proportional valve 2 is aligned with the wrench head 11 in the vertical direction. In order to prevent the position of the proportional valve 2 from moving, the position can be locked by tightening the two sets of nuts 17 to effectively prevent loosening.
[0034] During the test, install the proportional valve 2 to be tested into the socket 12 of the airtight component 1. Adjust the position of the airtight component 1 so that the proportional valve 2 is aligned with the wrench head 11. Simultaneously, move the pressure plate 9 so that it contacts and presses the proportional valve 2. Enter the pressure resistance value of the proportional valve 2 on the touch screen interface. The automatic pressure regulating valve on the intake pipe automatically adjusts the intake pressure value to the pressure resistance value of the proportional valve 2. Open the switch solenoid valve, inflate the airtight base 6, and intermittently open and close the exhaust valve 19. The pressure sensor 18 detects the gas pressure and feeds back the pressure value to the touch screen. The wrench head 11 driven by the motor 10 starts to tighten the adjusting screw 203. When the pressure displayed by the pressure sensor 18 is zero, stop tightening the adjusting screw 203, increase the intake pressure value by 50±10kPa, and continue to inflate the airtight base 6. The valve core of the proportional valve 2 is pushed open due to overpressure, and the pressure sensor 18 detects the pressure value. At this time, the test is completed. The test results show that the proportional valve 2 meets the pressure resistance value requirements and is qualified in the calibration test. The use of this device can automatically complete the pressure resistance value test of the proportional valve 2. The test accuracy is high and the results are more accurate, ensuring the uniformity of the factory pressure resistance value of the same model.
[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
