[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0023] The directional terms used in the detailed description are intended solely to facilitate understanding of the technical solutions described herein by those skilled in the art based on the visual orientation shown in the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "dispose," "install," and "connect" are to be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art will understand their specific meanings in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an adjustable vehicle door handle test fixture includes a manual handle mounting base 4. Two first limit slots 401 are defined on one side of the manual handle mounting base 4, and two second limit slots 402 are defined on the other side. The first limit slots 401 and second limit slots 402 are interconnected. A connecting sheet metal 1 is located between the first limit slots 401 and fixedly connected to the manual handle mounting base 4. A base pad 7 is located between the second limit slots 402 and fixedly connected to the manual handle mounting base 4. The base pad 7 provides a cushioning effect during interior handle testing. Two opposing door handle clamps 5 are slidably connected to the base pad 7. The door handle clamps 5 are fixedly connected to one side with a clamp pad 6. The clamp pad 6 provides lateral cushioning for the interior handle during testing. Both ends of the manual handle mounting base 4 are fixedly connected to limit blocks 8. Each limit block 8 is fixedly connected to two limit bolts 9, one end of which abuts against the outer side of the door handle clamp 5.

[0025] A second fixing bolt 3 is slidably connected within the first limiting slot 401. The second fixing bolt 3 is slidably connected to the second limiting slot 402. The second fixing bolt 3 is slidably connected to the base pad 7. One end of the second fixing bolt 3 is fixedly connected to the door handle clamp 5, and the other end is flush with the end surface of the manual handle mounting base 4. Two second fixing bolts 3 are slidably connected to each first limiting slot 401. The two second fixing bolts 3 are respectively fixedly connected to two door handle clamps 5. The clamping distance between the two door handle clamps 5 is adjusted by adjusting the tightness between the second fixing bolts 3 and the manual handle mounting base 4.

[0026] The base pad 7 is provided with two pad grooves 701, and the pad grooves 701 coincide with the size of the limiting groove 2 402. The connecting sheet metal 1 is fixedly connected with a fixing bolt 1 2, and one end of the fixing bolt 1 2 is fixedly connected to the handle manual installation base 4. Each limiting block 8 is fixedly connected with two fixing bolts 1 2, and one end of the fixing bolt 1 2 is fixedly connected to the handle manual installation base 4. The plywood pad 6 is made of silicone material, and the base pad 7 is made of silicone material. The advantage is that the inner door handle is usually made of plastic material. The silicone material can increase friction and will not cause damage to the inner handle when in contact with the inner handle. The connecting sheet metal 1 is "L"-shaped, and the short side of the connecting sheet metal 1 is the same length as the handle manual installation base 4. The long side of the connecting sheet metal 1 is provided with an opening. One side of the door handle plywood 5 is an arc that fits the door handle, and the plywood pad 6 is an arc that fits the door handle. The advantage is that it conforms to the shape of the inner handle, fits better when tightened, and is not easy to loosen.

[0027] The main structure of the utility model is made of stainless steel, which has the advantages of high structural strength, not easy to rust, not easily damaged during the test process, and long service life.

[0028] Those skilled in the art can use existing technologies they know, such as installing corresponding mechanical limit switches or photoelectric sensors to limit the specified positions of each actuator during the following action process; in order to achieve automated operation, the present invention can use CNC technology or PLC to control the actions of each actuator.

[0029] Working process: Find the interior door handle to be tested. Adjust the fixing bolts 2 (3) according to the size of the interior door handle to move the two door handle clamps 5 to the left and right, moving them further apart. Once set, move the door handle clamps 5 to either side of the interior handle. Adjust the door handle clamps 5 so that the clamp pads 6 are flush against the interior handle. Tighten the fixing bolts 2 (3) with a wrench. Once tightened, tighten the stop bolts 9 with a wrench, so that one end of the stop bolts 9 rests against the outside of the door handle clamps 5 to prevent the interior handle from dislodging from the door handle clamps 5 during the test. Finally, connect the long end of the connecting sheet metal 1 to the durability device to conduct the interior handle opening and closing durability test. The durability device used in this utility model is a conventional device. Simply put, a control mechanism controls a drive motor, driving a sliding block to reciprocate on a guide rail. The sliding block, with different mounting holes, is connected to the connecting sheet metal 1 of the fixture to open and close the door reciprocatingly. The manual device serves to secure the handle and connect the handle to the durability device.

[0030] Finally, although this specification is described in terms of implementation methods, not every implementation method contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative method of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementation methods that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
