[0002] With the progress of society and the improvement of living standards, cars have gradually evolved into a common means of transportation. With the popularization of cars, people's expectations for cars are no longer limited to their transportation function, but are increasingly focused on driving comfort and safety. When driving in areas with poor lighting at night, headlights provide illumination for the driver. Appropriate illumination provides a good and safe driving experience. Insufficient illumination can affect the driver's vision, posing a safety risk. Excessive illumination can irritate the driver and affect the illumination of other vehicles. Therefore, the illumination intensity of car headlights is a key indicator of car headlights. When scrapping and recycling cars, various parts need to be inspected to determine whether they can be recycled. For example, when recycling car headlights, specialized inspection devices are required to test the illumination intensity of the headlights and the switching between high and low beams. However, existing headlight inspection devices generally have an exposed detection head for detecting headlight illumination intensity. When not required, the detection head is easily damaged by accidental scratches. In addition, the detection head is exposed to the external environment for a long time, which easily accumulates a large amount of dust, affecting the detection accuracy. Utility Model Content

[0034] When recycling scrapped vehicles, various parts must be inspected to determine their suitability for recycling. For example, when recycling headlights, specialized testing equipment is required to check the headlights' light intensity and high- and low-beam switching. However, existing headlight testing devices typically have exposed detection heads for measuring headlight light intensity. When not in use, these heads are susceptible to damage from accidental scratches. Furthermore, prolonged exposure to the outside world can lead to the accumulation of dust, which affects detection accuracy.

[0035] In this regard, the present invention proposes a detection device for automobile headlights, which can effectively improve the above-mentioned problem.

[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a detection device for automobile headlights according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a detection frame 100 , a detection mechanism 200 , and a baffle 300 .

[0037] The detection mechanism 200 is arranged on the detection frame 100. The detection mechanism 200 includes a body 210 and a detection head 220 arranged at the front end of the body 210. The detection head 220 is used to detect the light intensity of the car headlights. By controlling the distance between the detection frame 100 and the car headlights, the high and low beams of the car headlights can be detected.

[0038] The baffle 300 is movably arranged on the body 210. A dust removal pad 310 is provided on the side of the baffle 300 facing the body 210. The dust removal pad 310 can be made of sponge material. The baffle 300 has a first state and a second state during its movement. When the baffle 300 is in the first state, the baffle 300 is vertically distributed and the dust removal pad 310 covers the front side of the detection head 220. At this time, the baffle 300 can block the detection head 220 to protect the detection head 220; when the baffle 300 is in the second state, the baffle 300 is supported on the upper end surface of the body 210. At this time, the detection head 220 can be used to detect the light intensity of the car headlights; in the process of the baffle 300 moving from the first state to the second state, the dust removal pad 310 can move along the surface of the detection head 220 to clean the dust on the surface of the detection head 220.

[0039] The detection device for automobile headlights of an embodiment of the present utility model is configured by arranging a baffle 300 on the body 210 of the detection mechanism 200. The baffle 300 has two states. When detection is not required, the baffle 300 can be adjusted to the first state, so that the baffle 300 covers the front side of the detection head 220, blocking the detection head 220, so as to protect the detection head 220 and prevent the detection head 220 from being accidentally damaged by collision. When detection is required, the baffle 300 is adjusted to the second state, so that the baffle 300 is supported on the upper end surface of the body 210 to avoid the detection area. In addition, a dust removal pad 310 is provided on the side of the baffle 300 facing the body 210. The dust removal pad 310 can move along the surface of the detection head 220 when the baffle 300 moves from the first state to the second state, thereby cleaning dust on the surface of the detection head 220.

[0040] Reference Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, a movable wheel assembly 110 is provided at the bottom of the detection frame 100. The movable wheel assembly 110 facilitates the movement of the detection frame 100, thereby facilitating adjustment of the distance between the detection mechanism 200 and the vehicle headlights for high and low beam detection. It is understood that the movable wheel assembly 110 includes multiple movable wheels with brakes.

[0041] Reference Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, a limiting structure is provided between the body 210 and the baffle 300, and the limiting structure is used to limit the downward displacement of the baffle 300 relative to the body 210 when the baffle 300 is in the first state, thereby maintaining the baffle 300 in the first state.

[0042] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the body 210 is provided with vertically extending and top-closed slide grooves 211 on two opposite sides of the baffle 300, and the top of the slide groove 211 extends out of the upper end surface of the body 210. The baffle 300 is provided with mounting posts 301 corresponding to the two slide grooves 211. The mounting posts 301 are cylindrical and embedded in the slide grooves 211 on the corresponding side. The mounting posts 301 can slide vertically along the slide grooves 211 and can rotate around their own axis. The baffle 300 is moved in the slide grooves 211 through the mounting posts 301. 11 to switch between the first and second states. When the baffle 300 is in the first state, the mounting post 301 is located at the bottom of the baffle 300. When the baffle 300 needs to be adjusted to the second state, the baffle 300 is first lifted until the mounting post 301 abuts the top wall of the slide groove 211. Then, the baffle 300 is rotated so that the baffle 300 rotates around the axis of the mounting post 301 until it is supported on the upper end surface of the body 210. In this way, the baffle 300 is switched from the first state to the second state. In some specific embodiments, the baffle 300 is configured to be L-shaped to facilitate the operator's lifting of the baffle 300.

[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the body 210 is provided with slide rails 212 on two opposite sides of the baffle 300, and the slide grooves 211 are provided on the slide rails 212 and are open at the bottom ends of the slide grooves 211. The baffle 300 is located between the two slide rails 212. A limiting structure is detachably provided on the baffle 300. The limiting structure is used to abut the upper end surface of the slide rails 212 to limit the downward displacement of the baffle 300 relative to the body 210. By adopting the above-mentioned structural arrangement, when it is necessary to remove the baffle 300, the limiting structure is first removed from the baffle 300, and then the baffle 300 is slid downward to disengage the mounting post 301 from the slide groove 211 to achieve the removal of the baffle 300. The reverse operation can be performed for installation, which is very convenient. Specifically, in this embodiment, the limiting structure is configured as a limiting plate 320, which is fixed to the baffle 300 by fasteners such as screws.

[0044] Reference Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the detection frame 100 includes a base 120 and a rotating frame 130. The rotating frame 130 is rotatable around a vertical axis and is arranged on the top of the base 120. A locking mechanism 400 is provided between the rotating frame 130 and the base 120. The locking mechanism 400 can lock the rotating frame 130 when the rotating frame 130 is rotated to multiple angles relative to the base 120. The detection mechanism 200 is installed on the rotating frame 130. By adopting the above-mentioned structural arrangement, the rotating frame 130 can be rotated to adjust the detection head 220 of the detection mechanism 200 to different angles, so that the car headlights can be fully detected. It can be understood that in this embodiment, the moving wheel group 110 is arranged at the bottom of the base 120. In addition, in this embodiment, the direction of the detection head 220 of the detection mechanism 200 is not adjusted by the moving wheel group 110. The reason is that the moving wheel with a brake is very easy to deflect when braking. Therefore, in this embodiment, when adjusting the direction of the detection head 220, the moving wheel brake is first fixed to fix the base 120, and then the direction of the detection head 220 is adjusted by rotating the adjusting rotating frame 130.

[0045] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the upper end surface of the base 120 is provided with a groove 121 with a circular cross-section, and the bottom end of the rotating frame 130 is provided with a rotating seat 131, which is adapted to be embedded in the groove 121 and can rotate around the center line of the groove 121. A detachable limit portion 140 is provided on the base 120, and the limit portion 140 abuts the upper end surface of the rotating seat 131. In this way, the rotating seat 131 can only rotate in the groove 121, thereby realizing the rotating connection between the rotating frame 130 and the base 120. When the rotating frame 130 needs to be disassembled, the limit portion 140 is first removed, and then the rotating seat 131 is taken out upward from the groove 121, which is very convenient to operate. Specifically, in this embodiment, the limit portion 140 is set to an L-shaped plate structure, and a plurality of limit portions 140 are provided. The limit portion 140 is fixed to the base 120 by fasteners such as screws.

[0046] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the locking mechanism 400 includes a locking rod 410 and an elastic member 420. The locking rod 410 is vertically slidably arranged on the base 120 and is located on the upper side of the rotating seat 131. The elastic member 420 is arranged between the base 120 and the locking rod 410. The elastic member 420 is used to apply a downward elastic force to the locking rod 410 so that the locking rod 410 presses downward against the rotating seat 131, thereby locking the rotating seat 131 to prevent the rotating seat 131 from rotating. The structure is simple and practical. Furthermore, in order to improve the stability of locking, a plurality of locking holes 132 are provided on the upper end surface of the rotating seat 131, and the plurality of locking holes 132 are distributed on the same circumference around the center line of the sink 121. During the rotation of the rotating seat 131, the locking rod 410 can be aligned with any locking hole 132 and embedded in the locking hole 132, so that the rotating seat 131 can be locked at multiple angles, and the locking is stable and reliable; when the lock needs to be released, a force opposite to the elastic force of the elastic member 420 is applied to the locking rod 410, so that the locking rod 410 is disengaged from the locking hole 132, and the lock can be unlocked.

[0047] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, a mounting bracket 150 is provided on the base 120, and a locking rod 410 is vertically slidably penetrated through the mounting bracket 150. The locking rod 410 is provided with an abutment on the upper side of the mounting bracket 150, and the abutment includes a pull plate 430 and a limit nut 440. The pull plate 430 is sleeved on the locking rod 410, and the limit nut 440 is threadedly connected to the locking rod 410 and is located on the upper side of the pull plate 430. By providing the pull plate 430, the operator can pull up the locking rod 410 through the pull plate 430 to unlock it, which is very convenient to operate; in addition, the locking rod 410 is provided with a boss 411 on the lower side of the mounting bracket 150, and the elastic member 420 is configured as a spring. The spring is sleeved on the locking rod 410 and its two ends respectively abut the boss 411 and the mounting bracket 150 to apply a downward elastic force to the locking rod 410. In this embodiment, the mounting bracket 150 is fixed to one of the limiting portions 140 by means of fasteners such as screws, and the limiting portion 140 is provided with a through hole for the locking rod 410 to pass through.

[0048] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
