[0002] Automotive silicone buttons generally refer to buttons made of silicone material and used on vehicle interior control panels. These buttons are typically used to control various in-car functions, such as air conditioning, audio, and power windows. Automotive silicone button anti-aging testing is used to evaluate the durability of silicone buttons under long-term use and in various environmental conditions. These tests include high- and low-temperature aging tests and mechanical durability tests. In actual use, silicone buttons are only pressed and do not move. However, current testing often requires repeated placement and removal within high- and low-temperature testing equipment. This repeated placement and removal can easily cause minor damage or wear on the surface or interior of the silicone buttons. This damage can alter the physical properties of the buttons, such as their elasticity or appearance, affecting the measurement results during testing. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present invention addresses the problem that silicone keys, while typically pressed but not moved during actual use, are currently often repeatedly placed and removed within high and low temperature testing equipment during testing. This repeated placement and removal process can easily lead to minor damage or wear on the surface or interior of the silicone keys. This damage can alter the physical properties of the keys, such as their elasticity or appearance, thereby affecting the test results.

[0024] Example

[0025] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the present invention provides a device for testing the aging resistance of automotive silicone keypads. The device comprises a support base 1 and a test tank 4 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the middle portion of the support base 1. A rubber gasket 43 is fixedly connected to the top opening of the test tank 4. The rubber gasket 43 is generally used to prevent liquid or gas leakage from the joint or seam. A bottom-mounted switch 42 is provided at the bottom of the test tank 4. The bottom-mounted switch 42 operates in the same manner as a push switch in a counter. A detection pressing plate 52 presses the automotive silicone keypad on the bottom-mounted switch 42, thereby driving the bottom-mounted switch 42 downward, thereby counting the number of times the silicone keypad is pressed. The bottom-mounted switch 42 is electrically connected to an electronic counter 53. Upper and lower corresponding switch mechanisms 451 are provided on the top outer wall of the test tank 4 and on the outer wall of the end of the sealed rotating cover 5 proximal to the test tank 4. The switch mechanism 451 utilizes a magnetic lock mechanism. The locking state is controlled by a magnetic field, such as an electromagnetic door lock or a magnetic drawer lock. The inspection tank 4 is equipped with an observation window 41 for directly viewing the automotive silicone keypad inside. Observation window 41 is typically a transparent or translucent device used to observe the interior of a sealed or isolated device without opening or damaging the seal. A sealed rotary cover 5 is pivotally connected to the top opening of the inspection tank 4. A handle 54 is fixedly attached to the outer wall of the sealed rotary cover 5, facilitating the upward and downward rotation of the sealed rotary cover 5. The sealed rotary cover 5 is equipped with a telescopic mechanism for pressing the automotive silicone keypad. Both the inspection tank 4 and the sealed rotary cover 5 are equipped with an electronic counter 53 for counting the number of times the telescopic mechanism is pressed. This electronic counter 53 is an electronically implemented counting device primarily used to count and display the number of specific events, products, or operations. Mounted on the upper surfaces of both ends of the support base 1 are a high-temperature simulation mechanism 2 and a low-temperature simulation mechanism 3. The high-temperature simulation mechanism 2 is typically a device or system used to simulate physical conditions or working environments in high-temperature environments. These devices are commonly used in scientific research, engineering testing, or industrial production to evaluate the performance and stability of materials, components, or equipment under high-temperature conditions. The low-temperature simulation mechanism 3 is a device or system used to simulate and control low-temperature environments. They are commonly used in scientific research, engineering testing, and industrial production to evaluate the performance, stability, and response of materials, equipment, or components under low-temperature conditions. High-temperature and low-temperature simulation mechanisms 2 and 3 are equipped with hot and cold gas pipes 231 that transport hot and cold airflows into test tank 4. These pipes 231 can transport high-temperature or low-temperature gases as heat carriers, transferring heat and cold energy from the high-temperature or low-temperature source to the sample or test area within the simulation chamber.

[0026] Furthermore, the telescopic mechanism includes a cylinder 51 connected to the upper surface of the sealing rotary cover 5. A detection pressing plate 52 is provided inside the sealing rotary cover 5. The piston rod of the cylinder 51 movably penetrates the sealing rotary cover 5 and is fixedly connected to the detection pressing plate 52.

[0027] Furthermore, the hot and cold gas pipes 231 are both provided with switch valves 232 , and the detection tank 4 is provided with a pair of through holes 233 . The ends of the hot and cold gas pipes 231 close to the detection tank 4 are fixedly connected to the corresponding through holes 233 .

[0028] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to use the anti-aging testing equipment for automobile silicone button, such as Figure 1 As shown, it is only necessary to place the car silicone keypad onto the upper surface of the bottom switch 42 within the test tank 4, then rotate the sealing rotary cover 5 downward so that the sealing rotary cover 5 is tightly against the rubber sealing gasket 43 on the test tank 4. At this point, the test tank 4 and the sealing rotary cover 5 are tightly connected and fixed by the switch mechanism 451 on the test tank 4 and the sealing rotary cover 5. Then, the cylinder 51 on the sealing rotary cover 5 is activated, and the piston rod of the cylinder 51 pushes the detection pressing plate 52 to repeatedly press the car silicone keypad on the bottom switch 42. Since the bottom switch 42 is electrically connected to the electronic counter 53, the electronic counter 53 can quickly determine how many times the car silicone keypad has been pressed by the detection pressing plate 52. When it is necessary to simulate the anti-aging test of the car silicone keypad in a low-temperature environment, it is only necessary to activate the low-temperature simulation mechanism 3 and rotate to open the switch valve 232 on the hot and cold air pipe 231 at the top of the low-temperature simulation mechanism 3, so that the cold air flow after the low-temperature simulation mechanism 3 is running enters the test tank 4 through the perforation 233, and the low-temperature anti-aging test of the car silicone keypad can be simulated. On the contrary, when simulating the anti-aging test of the silicone keypad of an automobile in a high-temperature environment, the switch valve 232 on the hot and cold air pipes 231 of the low-temperature simulation mechanism 3 is closed, and the low-temperature simulation mechanism 3 is closed at the same time. Finally, the high-temperature simulation mechanism 2 is started and the switch valve 232 on the hot and cold air pipes 231 at the top of the high-temperature simulation mechanism 2 is opened. This is simple and easy to operate.

Obviously, many modifications and variations are possible based on the content of this specification.
